Chapter 289 Archery Competition Begins

The fighting part of the competition had finally come to an end which means that the seven students that were going to be representing Crockel academy in the tournament were complete now.

The fight between Timmy and Tammy had been really tough at first but Tammy had found a way to beat him and just like most of the students in the arena had thought, she was the one to complete the seven.

Tammy had returned to where she was standing with Pearl as Lieutenant Kate got ready to make an announcement.

"The fighting event of the competition has finally come to an end and the seven students who will be representing our academy have been chosen." Lieutenant Kate said. "I will call their names one more time just to make sure everyone knows them."

"I was among this group of seven last year and this year…." Presley said slowly, putting his head down.

"You would have been among the seven if you hadn't gotten matched with Tammy in the round before this one," Pearl said.

"Yeah," Presley said slowly, turning his gaze to Tammy who had her eyes fixed on the screen.

"The students who are among our seven representatives are; Christine Lome who is the only first-year student there, Tyler Moon, Nate Smith, Clara West, Stein Parker, Pearl Reeves, and Tammy Phillips." Lieutenant Kate announced.

Those were the names of the seven fighters who were going to represent Crockel academy in the tournament.

The group comprised one first-year student, two second-year students, and four third-year students.

"Now that the fighting competition is over, it is time for the archery competition." Lieutenant Kate announced. "The students interested in the competition have already given me their names."

Luis turned his gaze to the side to see that Ciara had summoned her bow and was ready for the competition.

"I have the names of six students, two from each class." Lieutenant Kate said. "Here's how the competition is going to go, you will all be in the arena at once but you will not be shooting at once, you will be provided with multiple moving targets.

"You will not be using your main arrows as you will be provided with arrows that will help us calculate your points according to which part of the dummies you hit.

"A headshot gives you the highest point so go for it and finally, you are not allowed to hit a dummy twice, only the first hit will be calculated and any other hit will not count."

That was a clear explanation from Lieutenant Kate and it seemed like the archers and the other students got it.

"Alright now, all the archers participating in the competition please step forward." Lieutenant Kate said as she searched for their different locations with her eyes and lifted earth pillars for them.

The students including Ciara made their way to the pillars and were slowly brought down to the arena floor.

There were ten dummies set up in front of them but they weren't moving.

There were also purple arrow packs laid out in front of them, those were the arrows that were going to help calculate their points.

Ciara was inspecting the dummies from a distance thinking of the way they were going to be moving and how she was going to get a headshot on all of them when she felt someone touch her.

She quickly turned to see that it was one of the competitors in the archery competition, the other first-year student.

"Hey sorry for touching you, I'm Robin I'm in the A class," Robin said.

"Hi Robin, I'm Ciara," Ciara said, feigning a smile.

"I didn't think I would ever see another first-year student who was serious about archery," Robin said.

"Yeah, I used to think the same," Ciara said.

"How did you get that bow, it looks nice?" Robin said, pointing at her bow.

"It's my soul weapon," Ciara said.

"You made a bow your soul weapon?" Robin was really surprised.

"Yeah, and you didn't?" Ciara said.

"My father forbade me from having a bow as a soul weapon," Robin said.

"Oh, I see you have one of those fathers," Ciara said.

"Alright, the first person to go will be Brad Gregory." Lieutenant Kate said.

"Good luck," Brolin said to Brad.

"I won't need it," Brad said slowly, stepping up towards the dummies.

As soon as he had stepped foot on the marked spot m, the dummies began to move sideways between their different positions.

"This is level one, you will all go through the levels turn by turn until you get to level five and your points will be calculated." Lieutenant Kate said. "You have fifteen seconds to hit all the dummies Brad and your time begins now."

The dummies weren't moving that fast so it wasn't that hard for Brad to get a clear target on all of them.

He pulled out ten arrows from his pack and fitted them in his bow at once.

"There's no way he can get successful hits like that right?" Monica said.

"He can," Luis said.

Brad let go of the string and sent the arrows flying towards the dummies.

He had timed their movement as they weren't moving that fast and his calculations had been correct as his arrows had hit all the dummies not just anywhere but their foreheads.

"Nicely done Brad, now go recover your arrows." Lieutenant Kate said.

Both Robin and Ciara had their mouths wide open as they tried to recall what they had just seen.

"Wow," Monica said as she was also caught in the same amazement.

Ella had quickly headed to the clinic after Silvia had been carried out.

She had stayed with her until Serene had taken a look at her, she had only healed the fracture she had sustained on her leg because it was a bit critical.

Her hands didn't sustain much damage so she wrapped them with bandages and told her that it was going to heal in a day or two.

"Don't worry, it'll heal before the end of today," Silvia said slowly getting up from the bed she was lying on.

"Huh?" Serene said.

"Wonder warriors have fast healing, most of the injuries we sustain heals in a day and the serious ones may take up to a week, that's still faster than a normal human being," Silvia said.

"Ok," Serene said. "You can go now."

"Let's go," Ella said, getting up from where she was sitting.

"This archery competition is great," John said, causing the three girls to turn their gaze towards him.

The two roommates made it out of the clinic with Silvia walking normally.

They stood in front of the clinic for a while as their eyes caught the tree with red leaves standing on the other side with red leaves.

"That tree's leaves are abnormally red, it looks as though they are glowing," Ella said.

"Yeah, but it's just a tree, let's go," Silvia said as she began to walk towards the academy and Ella followed her from behind.

After the girls were gone, a guard was making his way down the road to go check something, he didn't even notice the tree or its abnormal trees but he was going to notice it very soon.

Two roots from the tree slowly began to move towards him from the ground and once they had gotten close to him, they wrapped around his legs and pulled him down.

"What the…" The guard said, trying to get up.

It didn't take him long to realize what was going down as the roots began to drag him back.

"Help! Somebody help! Arghhhh!" The guard screamed for help but it didn't look like anybody heard his cries as he was dragged into the ground just beside the tree.
