Chapter 157

“Sebastian is my brother.” Oneida blinked and spoke calmly.

Hearing this, Elon’s gaze flickered.

He asked suspiciously, “You’re Sebastian’s younger sister? Aren’t you from the Chaser family?”

Oneida nodded and replied calmly, “Yes, I’m from the Chaser family, but Sebastian is indeed my brother. He’s just keeping a low profile.*

She smiled and continued, “That’s why we look very similar. My archery skills were also taught by Sebastian.”

Elon pursed his thin lips and remained silent.

“That’s right. This explains everything,” he pondered. “But…”

Elon stared at Oneida and asked abruptly, “Where is your brother?”

His dark eyes glinted with faint desperation.

Oneida scowled and said indifferently, “I don’t know. His whereabouts are always a mystery.”

After saying that, Oneida turned to the crowd and continued lightly, “I have to go.”

She didn’t stay and turned to leave the woods.

Elon looked at Oneida’s back motionlessly. His eyes were filled with emotions.

Oneida went back to the crowd.

*Oneida, what did Mr. Gray say to you?” Ruby looked at her curiously with her big watery eyes.

The other students‘ ears also perked up, ready to listen to Oneida’s answer.

Oneida’s gaze was calm, and she responded indifferently, “He asked me-”

Speaking of this, Oneida deliberately paused and smiled arrogantly. “He asked me why I’m so good at archery.”

Everyone fell silent after hearing this.

They thought in unison, “Oneida is so arrogant!”

Although they didn’t like her, she did perform well just now.

They couldn’t even mock her.

Ruby curled her lips and couldn’t help laughing. “Oneida, you’re screwed! You’re targeted by Mr. Gray.”

At this time, Ronald suddenly shouted and urged all the students, “Hurry up, everyone. You have a horseback riding race!”

Hearing this, the crowd immediately walked toward the horseback riding field.

The second test was horseback riding.

This time, there was no strange and difficult setup.

Everyone just needed to ride their horse and finish the specified distance.

The one who finished in the shortest time would be the winner.

Once they arrived at the horseback riding field, the students immediately picked the horses that matched their wishes. Only Oneida had been moving slowly.

In the end, when she chose the horse, there was only an agitated one left.

The horse was dark all over, including its two large round eyes, which were gloomy as if it was staring at Oneida.

By this time, most of the students had already picked their horses and got on them.

Chapter 137

Only Oneida was still staring at the little black horse,

“Oneida, what’s wrong with you again?” Ronald sighed and looked at her helplessly. “You are the only one left.”

Although Oneida had just performed well in the archery field, she was still a Rank C student in Ronald’s mind.

Now, everyone was on horseback, and she was the only one still wasting time there.

Ronald’s shout attracted everyone’s attention to Oneida again.

“What is she doing? Could it be she doesn’t know how to ride a horse?” one student whispered.

“I heard that she used to live in a village. How could she do such a noble sport as horseback riding?” Another student snorted.

“No wonder her archery is so good. I guess she went hunting in the mountains every day. This country bumpkin!” Another laughed.

Oneida still didn’t ride the horse.

Although the horse looked very quiet, it was actually very agitated.

If she rode the horse, it would be unfavorable for her during the race.

“Can you ride a horse?” At this moment, a cold male voice suddenly sounded in her ears.

Oneida raised her eyes slightly.

It was Hendrick who spoke to her.

The young man was riding a tall and beautiful white horse with a cold and arrogant temperament.

A

He stared at Oneida with an indifferent look, but his tone was full of concern. “If you don’t know, don’t force yourself.”

Hendrick could see that Oneida was very competitive.

But riding a horse was incomparable with other sports, and it could be dangerous if she was not careful.

He was kindly reminding her.

At this time, Matthias also rushed over on horseback.

He deliberately stood in front of Hendrick and seemed to want to block his sight.

“Oneida, I can give you my horse.” Matthias lowered his head and looked at her seriously.

He was very clever. At a glance, he saw that the horse had a bad temper, so he made this suggestion.

Seeing Oneida surrounded by two handsome boys, the girls at the scene were envious.

They couldn’t believe why Oneida was so lucky.

First, there was Elon. Then, there was Hendrick. They were getting closer to her.

Oneida glanced at them and smiled slightly, “You guys go first. Don’t worry about me.”

After saying that, she looked at the crowd not far away and deliberately turned up the volume of her voice. “I didn’t mount the horse because there’s something wrong with it.”

Hearing that there was a problem with the horse, Ronald rushed over immediately and frowned. “What’s wrong with this horse? They’re all carefully selected!”

Oneida narrowed her eyes slightly and said lightly, “This horse, with soft hair and dark pupils, is a rare horse that can run at a very fast speed.”

As soon as she said this, there was a commotion among the students.

“No way. We picked our horses for half a day, and Oneida still got the best one!”

“What kind of dumb luck is this?”

“What’s the point of racing? Oneida is sure to win!”

Chapter 157

“Is it cheating?”

Only Matthias narrowed his eyes slightly.

He didn’t understand why Oneida was lying.

He knew it was not a good horse.

On the contrary, it was a very dangerous horse.

He thought, “Could it be… Matthias had a high IQ and soon guessed Oneida’s intention.

He looked at the girl in front of him with a complicated expression and subconsciously clenched the reins in his hands.

Oneida tilted her head innocently and continued to say to Ronald, “If I race this horse, will it be too unfair to others?”

“Since you think it’s unfair, give me this horse!” At this moment, a sharp and harsh female voice suddenly sounded in everyone’s ears,

Juliette rushed over on horseback, her eyes fixed on the black horse beside Oneida.

She narrowed her eyes slightly and looked unhappy.

“If this good horse is in Oneida’s hand, she will be in the spotlight again!” she pondered.

This would not lead to the result Juliette wanted.

Oneida looked up at Juliette and frowned slightly. She pretended to be reluctant and said, “Why should I give it to you?”

“Then, what rights do you have to use it for the race?” Juliette retorted.

Juliette was completely going against Oneida.

She suddenly lost her temper and immediately jumped down from the horse. She looked at Oneida coldly. “I heard that you lived in a village before. You’re just a country bumpkin. How can you ride such a good horse? Do you deserve it?”
