High-level martial arts: Invincibility starts with basic archery.

Chapter 33 Mysterious Woman

【Tai Chi Style: lv3 (0%), Characteristics: Robustness 3, Powerful 1】

After two upgrades, the [Tai Chi Style] has reached level 3, which is why he was able to shoot two more arrows even after he was exhausted.

"No wonder I felt stronger; it turns out I've gained a powerful new ability."

Chen Fan suddenly realized.

The only drawback is that the Powerful attribute seems to only add one point to Strength at level one, while the Robust attribute can add two points to Constitution at level one.

He felt a pang of regret, then glanced at his attribute panel. Realm: Body Tempering Level 1

Level: 4 (0/8)

Physical condition: 26.6

Power: 18.51

Agility: 11.45

Spirit: 7.32

Potential Points: 6 (3 points/day)

My physique has increased by four points, my strength by one point, and my potential points have also accumulated to three.

Since reaching the first level of Body Tempering, the growth rate of potential points has also increased, but the interval has not yet reached 24 hours. It will be around dusk, or actually, there is no need to wait until dusk.

Going back for lunch will allow you to level up again.

"With my current strength attributes, using a bow with a draw weight of 100 jin should not be a problem."

A glint flashed in Chen Fan's eyes.

If I go hunting later, I will carry a bow weighing 100 jin (50 kg). If I encounter a more troublesome ferocious beast, I can shoot it from 150 meters away. If I encounter a weaker, lower-level ferocious beast like a wasteland rabbit, I can kill it with one shot from 200 meters away without worrying about alerting the other party and ruining my efforts.

Of course, if a bow could be drawn with a pulling force of 200 or even 300 pounds, the image would be too beautiful. Just thinking about it makes Chen Fan's mouth water.

"By the way, how's your basic archery coming along?"

He realized what was happening and quickly looked over.

[Basic Archery: lv5 (25%)...]

"Good heavens!"

Chen Fan's eyes widened, and he was secretly amazed. Before setting off, his proficiency was less than 10%, but now it had increased by nearly 16%. Even if you deduct the 1% from the arrow that killed the bull, it was still 15%.

If only it could happen a few more times…

Thinking of this, Chen Fan quickly stopped himself; if it happened a few more times, he would probably be ruined.

That's fine, to be honest.

Although his combat proficiency increased the fastest, it was also dangerous. If he didn't have the support of the people in the village, he would have to run away as fast as he could if he faced a pack of wolves alone.

Practicing in the village may slow down your progress, but it's very safe.

Chen Fan sighed. Sure enough, nothing in this world is perfect.

...

In the village, people gathered in small groups, basking in the sun and chatting to pass the time.

Not far away, children gathered in several groups, playing hopscotch and having a great time.

"Sister Meng, Sister Meng," just then, a little girl of six or seven years old with pigtails walked up to a lone woman, tugged at her clothes, and said in a childish voice, "Come play with us."

The woman looked to be in her early twenties, with an oval face and long, flowing hair. She was staring blankly in the direction of the village gate when she noticed the commotion. She looked down at the little girl with gentle eyes and said, "Yaoyao, you two can play."

No.

The little girl tugged at her sleeve affectionately, "Sister Meng, let's play together, let's play together."

Several other boys and girls also ran over.

The woman had no choice but to give a wry smile and say, "Alright, alright, I'll play with you for a little while, just a little while."

"yeah!"

The children immediately cheered with joy.

Meng Yu shook her head slightly. The hunting team returned with a full load yesterday, and the atmosphere in the village became more optimistic. The old people no longer stayed at home, and the children regained the vitality that they should have at this age.

However, if his dream was not wrong, the hunting party had not caught much by the time they returned at dusk, except for a large piece of beef and a wild rabbit.

With so little prey, it's clearly not enough to go around for all the people in the village.

Everyone is getting excited too soon. We should sit more and move less to conserve energy.

However, the next moment, a figure came running from afar, shouting excitedly as he ran, "The hunting team is back! Guodong and the others are back! So much prey! So much prey!"

In an instant, everyone present was startled, and then, whether they were children or the elderly, they all rushed to the entrance of the village.

"!"

Meng Yu suddenly froze on the spot, an expression of disbelief on her face.

How... how is this possible?

Before long, the entrance to the village was once again crowded with people. Wang Ping and the others had rushed over as soon as they heard the news. Unexpectedly, Zhang Ren also came over. Before he even got close, they heard gasps of amazement from the crowd.

"My goodness, one, two, three, four, five, six! Six whole steppe wolves! This hunting party is incredible!"

"Yes, these are steppe wolves! If you get bitten by one, the consequences are unimaginable. And these wolves always hunt in packs. How did Guodong and his team manage to kill so many?"

"Hahaha."

The bald man laughed loudly upon hearing this, and said, "Of course he was killed by an arrow."

For ease of transport, the arrows had been removed from the Steppenwolf, so the group didn't notice it at first.

Sure enough, gasps of surprise erupted from the crowd once again.

"What? He was killed by an arrow?"

"It seems so. Look at these wounds, they're all quite fine. It doesn't look like someone was stabbed to death."

"Arrows, arrows? Wait, could it be that these wolves were all killed by Brother Fan with arrows?!" Wang Ping's eyes almost popped out of their sockets.

The others also belatedly looked at Chen Fan, utterly shocked.

In their view, Chen Fan's ability to shoot down such a large prey as a wildebeest yesterday was already quite impressive.

Today, they actually shot and killed six Steppenwolves, which are many times more ferocious than wildebeests. That's incredible!

Feeling embarrassed by everyone's stares, Chen Fan coughed twice and said, "It's all thanks to everyone. How could I possibly have done this by myself?"

"Alright, Xiao Fan," someone in the hunting team laughed, "We didn't help at all except by giving them our eyes."

"Exactly! If it weren't for your skill and daring, suggesting we go back, how could we have achieved such a great result today?"

"At this point, you shouldn't be modest anymore."

As they talked amongst themselves, everyone gradually understood what was going on, and their admiration for Chen Fan slowly turned into respect.

Wang Ping and his group, in particular, were completely awestruck.

What kind of heart does that take? To be able to circle back right under their noses? And you have to remain calm and composed under pressure, otherwise, if you make a mistake…

Chen Fan was so flattered that he wished he could disappear into the ground. He had anticipated this scene upon his return, but he still underestimated the excessive praise from the crowd.

"This kid does have some skills. This move works well against low-level ferocious beasts, but it won't be so effective against mid-level or high-level ferocious beasts."

Zhang Ren, who was at the edge, smirked, muttered a couple of words, and then turned and left.

"It's Uncle Zhang."

Chen Fan saw that familiar figure and was about to follow when he suddenly sensed something, turned to the left, and his gaze met that of a black-haired woman.
