"The selection ceremony for the city Nadamu Festival is coming up soon."
"I need to prepare well in advance."
"Ximeng League has two cities, nine banners, one county, one administrative district, and one development zone."
"Each city, banner, and county has its own team participating in the competition."
"Maodeng Ranch belongs to the administrative and political center of Ximeng League—Xilinhot City. I definitely need to represent the city in the competition."
"But every year, the top spots in the three traditional Mongolian competitions are usually taken by people from the banners. Xilinhot City's performance is relatively poor."
"This year, the city hopes I can perform well and bring some honor to the city."
"I at least need to show some skill in the city's selection."
Jiang Feng came to the river to practice archery on horseback.
