... I feel the need to take deep breaths to overcome this naive portrayal of archery. If you're going to have archery in a cultivation world at least lean more into the magic portion if you don't properly understand traditional archery... The easiest spin would just be to have them using ridiculously strong warbows made from mystical materials that require excessive, superhuman strength to draw. But writing about such things would require the author to at least do some research... which they clearly haven't... Traditional bows don't release tension at full draw. There's no way the MC would be holding her bow at full draw and aiming while applying magic--unless she's using a bow with a draw weight far below her maximum.

My sympathies as I suspect there are going to be a lot more inaccuracies ahead. Try comforting yourself with the notion that in the magical world archery works completely differently. It may help!

I really don't know where authors find so many "young masters" willing to throw their lives away.

They just make the worlds really big, so there's lots of people to be cannon fodder :PThis is actually really tame so far, since some novels go as far as having a "pool" of trillions of people to pull from :')
