That night, while Lu Yun was eating dinner, the internet had already exploded with news.
Videos from Mingri High School in Jiangnan City were spreading everywhere, quickly dominating major forums and Weibo headlines.
Views skyrocketed, and countless comments poured in.
Even the internet authorities were powerless to suppress it.
The incident simply couldn’t be hidden, so they decided that guiding public discussion was better than trying to block it.
“That’s incredible! What a master archer!”
“Who said cold weapons are useless? Look at this—he completely crushed modern firearms!”
“True masters really do exist among ordinary people!”
“Who is this guy? Why won’t he reveal himself?”
For a time, netizens across the country discussed the mysterious figure fervently, desperate to uncover his identity.
Unfortunately, there wasn’t a single reliable lead.
At the same time, in the Fire Phoenix dormitory building, eighteen female special-forces soldiers sat facing each other in two rows along the hallway, enthusiastically discussing the events of the day.
“Hurry up, tell us exactly what happened!” Hao Lingling urged.
An Ran cleared her throat and began vividly recounting the story.
“After we dropped Lu Yun off at the school…”
Soon, with An Ran, Ye Cunxin, and He Lu taking turns telling the tale, the others learned what had happened and grew increasingly excited.
Tang Xinyi kicked her long legs in frustration.
“If I’d known, I would’ve gone too! We actually missed something this interesting.”
As the team’s medic, Lin Xiaoying asked, “By the way, Lu Yun was injured. Should we go check on him?”
“Maybe we should… It wouldn’t look good if we didn’t, right? After all, we’re technically husband and wife.”
“It was only a minor injury, wasn’t it? I don’t think it’s necessary. He’s a grown man; he shouldn’t be that delicate.”
“True. We get hurt every time we go on a mission.”
Long Xiaoyun, as serious as ever, frowned.
“Have they figured out who those terrorists really were?”
Ye Cunxin shook her head.
“No. There were six terrorists in total. Five died on the spot, and the last one committed suicide before he could be interrogated.”
“Besides, there are probably still accomplices hiding somewhere in Jiangnan City, but we haven’t found them yet.”
Shen Lanni said seriously, “So these terrorists were likely agents from another country?”
An Ran nodded.
“We just finished reporting to the higher-ups. That’s their conclusion as well.”
He Lu added, “The attack was essentially suicidal. They wanted to spread panic throughout our country, which is why they livestreamed it. But they clearly had another objective and didn’t act immediately, which gave us enough time to carry out the rescue.”
The three women shook their heads.
Even their superiors had no clues.
“Oh, right.” Gu Xiaojie asked eagerly, “Any news about that mysterious expert?”
Everyone immediately perked up.
Ye Cunxin shook her head.
“Nothing. We still don’t know who he is.”
“What a pity. I really wanted to know what kind of master could use a bow so effectively.”
“Yeah, his archery was practically on par with a sniper rifle.”
“Pretty much.”
“Too bad he’s not one of our people. Our special forces don’t have anyone like that.”
“It’s the first time I’ve realized how terrifying cold weapons can be.”
The women sighed in disappointment.
Throughout the entire conversation, none of them ever considered Lu Yun a suspect.
If they discovered the truth in the future, who knew how shocked they would be?
The incident quickly spread throughout military districts across the country, attracting the attention of many elite soldiers, all of whom began discussing the mysterious archer.
The next morning, the rising sun illuminated the sky as the special-forces base came alive with activity.
Soldiers had already begun their morning drills, their chants echoing across the grounds.
After getting up early and eating breakfast, Lu Yun headed to the art troupe headquarters.
He found everyone in a meeting, so he sat down with the others and listened for a while.
It turned out they were discussing an upcoming military performance.
Life in the army was monotonous.
Opportunities to leave the base were rare, and soldiers spent most of their time training or working, with very little entertainment.
As a result, the art troupe occasionally organized performances to bring some joy to the military camp and give the soldiers a chance to relax.
This time, they planned to hold a large show featuring singing, dancing, and various other performances by the troupe members.
Judging by everyone’s serious expressions, the event seemed to carry considerable importance.
Lu Yun, however, wasn’t interested.
It wasn’t as if he’d be performing on stage.
While pretending to listen, he was actually thinking about making his own bow.
“Making a proper bow requires too many materials: wood, horn, sinew, glue, silk, and lacquer. Where am I supposed to find all that?”
After some thought, he remembered the mountains outside the special-forces base and decided to take a look there.
He should be able to find plenty of materials.
As for modern synthetic materials, Lu Yun had no intention of using them. New chapters come out on g.com first.
He planned to craft the bow using ancient techniques, which would provide a better feel and outperform modern materials in many aspects.
Before long, the meeting ended, and Lu Yun headed outside.
“Hey, wait a second!”
A familiar voice suddenly called out from behind him, causing him to stop.
Turning around, he was stunned to see the long-haired woman in the white dress whom he had met at Mingri High School the day before.
Surprised, Lu Yun asked, “What are you doing here?”
The young woman hurried over, her eyes filled with delight.
“I’m part of the art troupe too, although I only joined recently.”
“What a coincidence,” Lu Yun said.
“Yeah, it really is.” She nodded enthusiastically before introducing herself.
“Hello, my name is Su Quyun.”
Lu Yun nodded and replied simply, “Lu Yun.”
“Lu Yun?”
Su Quyun froze, her eyes widening.
“Y-you’re that Lu Yun?”
