Chapter 840 - This Girl Was Such A Poser

Chapter 840: This Girl Was Such A Poser

“Nope,” said Huo Yao calmly.

She pushed her cap up slightly, narrowed her right eye as she looked into the telescope with her left, and lined up all three dots.

“Huh? For a moment, I thought you did,” said Yuan Xi softly as she blinked.

Jiang Hua’s lips twitched in contempt when she heard Huo Yao knew nothing about shooting a gun.

How could she have the cheek to talk big if she did not know how to shoot?

Tsk.

Jiang Hua looked at Huo Yao as she aimed for the target and was caught by surprise.

Despite being a poser, Huo Yao seemed to know what she was doing, judging from her posture.

Just as Jiang Hua pondered, Huo Yao pulled the trigger with a click. The bullet could be heard firing before it hit its target’s bullseye with a bang.

Since the gun was in continuous firing mode, all five bullets had hit the bullseye.

People who were standing around watching instantly opened their eyes wide in shock.

“Oh god! She is such an expert! It was only her first try, but she hit the bullseye five times in a row, using continuous firing mode no less.”

” I fired my bullets one by one, but only one of the bullets made it to the target. I was so proud of myself for a moment there. From the looks of it, it was nothing.”

“The girl looks so professional when she is handling her gun and seems just like the instructor. She must have taken training before.”

The people around them kept gossiping. The moment Jiang Hua heard what they said, she gathered her thoughts. She found Huo Yao’s flawless shooting skills to be inconceivable.

Hadn’t Huo Yao said she did not learn how to shoot?

If she hadn’t learnt, how could she hit the bullseye using continuous firing?

Jiang Hua raised her head and looked at the red target nearby with complicated emotions running through her heart. Despite her previous shooting experience, she only fired using single shots. Although all five of them had hit the target, not a single one of them had hit the bullseye.

This meant Huo Yao was pretending to be humble and showing off.

Jiang Hua felt speechless. She did not want to go on hearing people singing Huo Yao’s praise, so she turned to go back to her team.

After Huo Yao was done, she stood up and handed the gun to the next student. She walked to the side and patted the dust off herself.

Yuan Xi came over and said excitedly, “Yao, you were incredible. How did you manage to pull off continuous firing? The instructor clearly didn’t teach us how to do it earlier. How could you say you did not know how to shoot?”

Huo Yao glanced at Yuan Xi and raised her chin quizzically. “It’s just 25 meters away. Shouldn’t anyone with hands be able to do it? Do you need practice for this?”

Yuan Xi went speechless.

She felt deeply offended.

Huo Yao patted her shoulder. “Good luck. Just keep practicing. We have two more days before the actual test. I am sure you will make it.”

Yuan Xi forced a smile and chuckled sheepishly. She did not feel like talking to Huo Yao.

If she had any talent to speak of, she would not have missed the target altogether.

“I need to use the bathroom.”

The moment Huo Yao finished her sentence, she went over to the instructor and asked for leave.

Zhuo Yun was motionless under the banyan tree nearby with a pair of binoculars, standing slightly behind Min Yu’s right.

A rugged-looking man dressed in army uniform with an imposing soldier’s aura was standing on Min Yu’s left.

The man stood with both hands behind him as he looked towards the field. “Yu, why did you suddenly decide to come and serve as the chief military instructor?”

After coming home from a mission a couple of days ago, he found out that the stupid boy had used him to become Tsing University’s chief military instructor.
