The students who were discussing it noticed the special wooden plaque hanging around Versace's neck.
He cupped his hands in greeting and replied respectfully.
"Greetings, Junior Brother!"
"Reporting to Junior Brother, that man's name is Guo Baokun."
"Which Guo Baokun?"
"Guo Baokun, the son of the Minister of Rites."
Versace's big eyes widened in surprise.
It wasn't shock, but rather a look of utter disbelief.
He prefers to believe the sun rises in the west.
No one would believe that Guo Baokun is a genius archer who hits the bullseye every time.
"Impossible, Guo Baokun can draw a bow."
A student kindly explained.
"As for the bow and arrow, Young Master Guo didn't actually draw it."
"But the archery department has a crossbow shooting test."
"It's the kind of bow that doesn't need to be drawn..."
Versace nodded.
"I know what this thing is." 0.0
But he still didn't believe it.
He knows what kind of guy Guo Baokun is.
In this Kyoto, if there is anyone more ignorant and incompetent than him.
Prince Jing's heir and Princess Na Roujia each count as one.
The last spot must be reserved for Guo Baokun.
Archery? He knows nothing about it!
He keeps clamoring that he wants to be a great general.
Pshaw, a worldly general in my dreams.
The students who were discussing the matter saw that Versace did not refute it further.
So he continued to sigh.
"If he really hits the bullseye every time, then this young master Guo..."
"A genius, truly a genius!"
Versace rolled his eyes, and was about to go and see for himself.
Then a student who had actually come from the archery department angrily cursed.
"What genius?"
"He's just a born idiot!"
Versace was amused by this and asked.
Why do you say that?
The candidate did not answer the question first.
Instead, he glared fiercely at the person who had spread the rumors.
"Hey you guys, don't believe everything you hear."
"How much of what you hear on the sidelines can you really believe?"
The student was furious and didn't notice Versace's identity.
He then angrily recounted what had happened in the examination room.
"What nonsense about hitting the bullseye every time, or never missing a shot."
"Guo Baokun's arrows always hit the bullseye."
"But he never shoots at his own target, yet he always hits the bullseye of others!"
"I finally managed to shoot a few excellent arrows, but he ruined them all."
"The examiner told us to shoot again."
"That damned Guo Baokun!!"
The student practically spat out those words through gritted teeth.
Versace nodded, seemingly understanding why he was so angry.
But Fan Sizhe was unaware that Guo Shao had not only taken the archery exam.
They also registered for exams in various subjects.
And the next one to break down was none other than Versace himself...
Chapter 159 A Valiant General Bravely Conquers the Academy's Encyclopedia! I Must Show the Teacher My Talent!
Su Yu, standing by the lake, observed everything.
It's not just what Versace has heard from others.
He witnessed the entire incident that just happened in the shooting range.
After all, his Martial Arts Heavenly Eye can see through everything that happens within a hundred miles.
With eyes that can see in all directions and ears that can hear in all directions, one can see whatever one wants to see.
Su Yu knew very well that Guo Baokun was certainly not a genius archer.
He couldn't even draw the bowstring just now.
This guy keeps saying he wants to be a great general.
The result was that they only read military books but never actually put them into practice.
Of course, it's easy to imagine that he didn't really put much thought into reading that military book.
It's just the literal meaning; I only read it a few times.
It's not that they're not serious, unwilling to work hard, or unwilling to use their brains.
Simply because, Guo Shao doesn't have a brain.
After all, Guo Baokun is the phoenix chick of Daqing World.
It is well-known that one must be intelligent and moral, talented and ethical.
Regarding Guo Shao's performance in the shooting range just now, Su Yu could only say...
Although Guo Baokun couldn't draw the bow.
Although Guo Baokun didn't hit the target with a single arrow.
However, that didn't stop him from using his crossbow to fill the bullseye of his opponents.
As for the saying "hitting a willow leaf from a hundred paces away, never missing a shot," it depends on how you interpret it...
If the exam rules were changed so that you could only shoot at other people's targets, wouldn't Guo Shao be considered to have hit the bullseye every time?
Su Yu shook her head, rubbed her forehead, and smiled.
In fact, no one else knew why Guo Baokun behaved this way.
Su Yu, however, was aware of it.
Just now, when Guo Baokun was showing off his outrageous skills in the shooting range.
Su Yu then sent him a system-wide assessment.
Name: Guo Baokun
Age: Nine years old
[Identity: Only son of the Minister of Rites]
[Literary commentary: Even after reading a book a hundred times, some parts will still remain incomprehensible.]
Martial Arts Realm: None
[Skill: None]
[Equipment: None]
[Talent Domain: Gambling Skills]
[Talent Level: Gambling Skill - Unparalleled (Low, Medium, High, Unparalleled)]
[Introduction: His intelligence is questionable, but his filial piety is deeply moving. He possesses a mysterious self-confidence and a burning desire to become a great general! His luck is exceptionally good, far exceeding that of ordinary people!]
Su Yu understood why Guo Baokun's data panel showed large areas of nothingness.
Moreover, this was expected; it was obvious even without system verification.
However, it turns out that Guo Baokun's area of talent is not empty.
Su Yu felt that this was somewhat puzzling.
Does Guo Shao still have talent?
Moreover, gambling skills?
Given Guo Shao's upbringing, he shouldn't have gotten involved in gambling.
But then I thought about it, and talent isn't something you only acquire after studying.
It's something ingrained in your bones, something in your genes.
Even though Guo Baokun had never been to a casino.
However, this does not prevent him from having an amazing talent for gambling.
