Minutes later, player coming out from the armory carrying different types of weapon. They immediately choose a dummy and tried out their weapon. As the number in the archery range grows, many find it hard to use the bow. 

One by one tried to hit the target practice but no one is near enough to hit the mark. After ten minutes or so, most player by now have already realized that the game didn't have any battle assistance. To use a weapon, one have to actually master the basic of the weapon by itself. 

Soon the number of player gradually decrease followed by projectile types weapon. They returned to the sword which is easier to use. 

Ten minutes have passed and some player already gives up in using bow. Meanwhile Hyuuga just kneeling down and closing his eyes. In various tournament, archery branch need a long time of preparation. 

Checking the wind pressure, the flexibility of the bow and string, even the smoothness and pattern of the bow tail. But the most important of all is maintaining the stability of breathing and put concentration at the highest point. 

Because of this, archery in a one on one battle is considered useless. Maintaining one composure when seeing an enemy coming with swords is not an easy feat. 

Furthermore the imagination of quick release of arrow in an arrow barrage only decrease the hit probability, depends only the luck from the number of arrow shot. Rapid shot then in real battle situation have a really low chance to hit the enemy. There is a player trying to shot arrow in succesion which sending it everywhere. Even situated against a sitting target, you can only hit the target one out of five. 

Coming from a family backgrounding on archery, Hyuuga knows about all of this. He was always told "don't rush and make every arrow counts" by his father. 

Hyuuga raise up and hold the bow in his right hand and took the arrow out from the quiver using his left hand. Yes, he was left handed. It wasn't strange for left handed person to compete at sports when sometimes they're actually doing better than normal people. 

He open his eyes, readied the bow and took a deep breath. While he's holding his breath, the arrow is being launched from the bow. Shooting the arrow when holding the breath is to maintain the stability. 

*Swush....* 

With the arrow sound breaking the wind, it fly in a low arc before hitting the practice target in the middle. 

*Thud..* 

After that the training ground fell silence as players looking at Hyuuga direction. After hundreds of player fail to aim near enough to the target and start changing to other weapon, a boy hit the bull's eye... 

"d-d-did you see that?" 

"y-yeah... That is awesome... I'm changing back to bow." 

After seeing what Hyuuga has accomplish, some people quickly run towards the armory. Seeing a boy finally hit the target, some male players pride can't let them lose. But their real intention is when girls who witnessed the scene saying "so cool" and starts some noise in the training grounds. 

Even after no one is standing in the archery range, the little boy still kneeling there. When he finally makes his move, of course he becomes the center of attention and causing an uproar. 

When Hyuuga arrow hit the center of the target, a small windows appear in front of him. 

[critical hit] 

*You have dealt 60 damage* 

Finished with his arrow shooting practice, hyuuga pack his bow and quickly approaches Sid.

"Thank you Master Sid for letting me practice. I will take my leave." 

After bows a little he then turn around before hearing Sid voice. 

"wait a minute young boy, you haven't even know how to see your status and skill. Not to mention how to form a party. You still have so much to learn." 

Looking puzzled, he saying something innocently. 

"I just have to say > , >, and > right?" 

Sid stood there for a seconds and laugh. 

"hahaha... You're a stupid young boy but I didn't dislike your simple thinking. As an exception, I let you pass early." 

To be honest, the basic training course will also teach new players on how to see their status windows, skill windows, and party windows. 

Of course they have to meet some requirement to pass before these windows can be opened. Eventually they will follow the instruction given by Sid to make it available. Like earlier they can't open their quest or inventory windows before they we're instructed by Sid. 

But seeing the innocent boy in front of him, Sid decided to let him go. Afterall he already know from Hyuuga manner if this isn't an act for him to easily skip the rest of the training course. 

"very well, you may leave now." 

"thank you." 

Once again Hyuuga gives a bow before leaving the training ground. When he exit from the entrance a windows appeared in front of him. 

[Quest Cleared] 

For completed the basic training course, you're now able to access quest, inventory, status, skill, and party windows. 

*bonus reward: 1000 exp* 

And another window appeared in front of Hyuuga. 

[You have levelled up] 

Of course the basic training course will grant some experience to help players become familiar with the game interface. This level up was meant for players to have when they are granted access to the status window. Sid by then will explain about various stats in the status window. 

Of course Hyuuga have played some games before. He knew that when leveled up his character will be stronger, so he decided to see the effects. 

">" 

When he say the word skill, something unexpected come up. 

[You have no skill available] 

Hyuuga scratchs his head and say another command... 

">" 

This time he is sucessful. 

[Name: Hyuuga 

Health point:100 

Mana point:100 

Str:10 

Agi:10 

Dex:10 

Int:10 

Luk:10 

Stats point available:5] 

From he was little his father is very strict and always made him to train with bows. Of course if his son fall into the gaming world, Hyuuga wouldn't be a gold medalist. 

Hyuuga also isn't some uncivilized boy and he also have played some games before. But the game that he played is an old game which gives the character stronger stats and some skill available when the player leveled up. It's such and old game and he only mamaged to play it twice. 

So from his experience, he deducted that if a player leveled up he will basicly get a skill and get stronger. That's why he is confused why he can't open his skill windows. It also explain why he leave the training ground before completed the course. 

His stubbornes in not using any weapon except bow luckily opened the weapon change option. But his knowledge about modern games is almost zero. That's why he decided to casually leaves the training ground before even finishing the quest. 

For this game, he actually managed to fetch some basic info in the forum. He do some research but the gaming language is strange to him. He choose to come here because the threads simply titled [beginner]. 

Now back to the topic when he leveled up and seeing his status window. 

"hmm... No skill gained when leveled up. Strange... The Golden hero that i've played before gives the character a skill every time it leveled up. Anyway, I have stats point available, what does it mean?" 

When he is confused, he accidentally hover his hand on top of Str and immediately it shows Strength. Of course when you hover your hand to the other stats it will show agility, dexterity,intelligence, and luck. We all know what these basic stat mean. If only he finished his basic training course, he will get a better understanding about modern games. But unfortunatelly Hyuuga doesn't have any idea. 

He clicks the strength once more and the point increase to 11. Like a baby finding a new toy, he clicks again for several timea until it hit 15 and the number won't go up. But when he see his stats once more, he is smiling. 

[Name: Hyuuga 

Health point:210 

Mana point:110 

Str:15 

Agi:10 

Dex:10 

Int:10 

Luk:10 

Stats point available:0] 

"the stats point available has go down from 5 to 0 but the strength has gone up to 15. Also look, my health is now doubled and mana increased by ten. Hahaha.. Getting stronger in this game is so easy. Why did they put some joke like this. I'm lucky I clicked that strength. If I choose the other, I don't know what will happen to my character. I hope other players know about these." 

After feeling satisfied, he then decided to log out and look for more info in the forum. Later that day a new thread called [I am a genius archer] show up.
