Huo Yao nodded. She ignored the range officer's strange looks and continued. "Uh huh. A live target."
Huo Wanying was undoubtedly an excellent shooter. Considering Huo Wanying's results, even if she came up with the same scores, they would only end up with a tie.
If she wanted to win at shooting, she had to increase the level of difficulty.
She was not interested in being the clan leader, but it did not mean she would pass it on easily.
"A live target is very hard to shoot. Are you…" The range officer could not help reminding her.
It was wrong to underestimate anyone, but considering the rumors, he did not think this young woman could be a good shooter.
Moreover, Miss Wanying had the best score to date. Even if this young woman was a decent shooter, it was very unlikely for her to end up with the same score as her, right?
After all, it was hard to shoot a live target. Moreover, she was using a rookie gun. Even a professional shooter could not guarantee the same score.
The test to select the future heir was very important. Huo Yao's abilities aside, it was clearly wiser to stick to a safer bet. Even if she ended up with the same scores as Huo Wanying, it was far better than losing.
The range officer sighed inwardly. This young woman was probably being young and rash.
"No, thanks. I want a live target."
Huo Yao thought about shooting with Min Yu previously, where he had set the live target to maximum speed. She paused briefly and told the range officer, "Also, can you set the speed to the highest?"
She could not go slower than the guy.
The range officer's eyes opened wide. For a moment, he wondered if he had heard wrongly. "The fastest?"
"Uh huh." Huo Yao nodded as she responded briskly.
Despite the range officer's shock, he could tell Huo Yao was not joking about it, so he could only agree.
He walked to the side and instructed his subordinate to change it to a live target.
The elders sitting nearby did not hear their conversation, but when they saw them changing the regular target to a live one, they could not help feeling stunned.
eαglesnovel`c,om "How could she use a live target?" the Eldest Elder could not believe his eyes. "I thought she didn't know how to use a gun."
"According to our investigations, she doesn't," said Huo Qing, pursing his lips.
"Maybe she's just pretending," said Second Elder casually.
Huo Qing frowned. After some time, he said, "According to our background check, she can't fight at all either."
However, she had undoubtedly proved them wrong judging from her results this morning.
The Eldest Elder looked stern and quiet. After contemplating briefly, he said, "Wanying already scored 60. Even if Miss Huo knows how to use the gun, you know how hard it is to shoot a live target. It's impossible for her to get a full score."
Unless she was a legendary shooter… No, correction… Even a legendary shooter was unlikely to score 60 with a live target.
After all, with each shot, there was recoil. The first few shots might be able to hit the target accurately, but it would whittle down the shooter's strength. When the shooter fired again, the accuracy and steadiness would be negatively affected more or less.
Hence, Huo Wanying would come up on top this time round.
When Huo Qing heard the Eldest Elder's analysis, the frown on his face smoothened out.
Perhaps he had taken Huo Yao too seriously.
Everyone stopped talking and turned to look at the shooting range.
Before long, the normal target was changed to a live one. Also, they changed it to top speed as per Huo Yao's request.
Everyone in the clan was dumbstruck by the scene.
The person causing their astonishment had already slowly raised her gun.
