Chapter 80: When Did This Guy Become So Patient?
🕑 Added 2025-03-02 12:02:58 +0000 UTCDoesn’t Xu Yuan know what his uncle-master is thinking?
It’s nothing more than showing off.
Although Zhenhua never revealed it, Xu Yuan himself knew the relationship between Zhenhua and Muchen, the president of the Donghai City Blacksmith Association.
East Sea City.
Blacksmiths Guild.
“Hello, I want to register as a blacksmith.”
Xu Yuan and Tang Wulin came to the association at the same time. Tang Wulin did not need certification as he was already a fourth-level blacksmith. It was Xu Yuan who needed certification.
“Okay, I wonder what level of blacksmith you are now, little brother?”
“Level three.” Xu Yuan said calmly, taking out his blacksmith badge.
“Level three?” The person in charge of receiving Xu Yuan widened his eyes and looked at the badge in Xu Yuan’s hand.
“Wait a moment. I will arrange a fourth-level blacksmith certification test for you.”
The third floor of the Blacksmith Association is a room specially provided for the fourth-level blacksmith certification examination. Usually there are no examinees and it is very quiet. At the same time, each forging room is equipped with the most advanced forging equipment.
The fourth floor Is prepared for the assessment of blacksmiths of level five and above.
Further up is the floor where the blacksmiths in the association rent out their forging rooms.
Fourth floor.
Xu Yuan was guided to the assessment site.
Here, a middle-aged man with a rather dignified look had been waiting for a while.
“Teacher?” Tang Wulin asked in surprise.
“Wulin, who is this?” Muchen nodded at Tang Wulin, then looked at Xu Yuan with a gentle gaze.
“Teacher, this is Brother Xu Yuan, he is from Shrek.”
“oh?”
From Shrek?
Then why did you come to the East Sea City Blacksmith Association to get certified as a Level 4 Blacksmith?
Why did he get acquainted with Wulin?
Mu Chen was confused, but he didn’t ask directly. Instead, he looked at Xu Yuan.
“Brother Xu, this is my teacher, and also the president of the Donghai City Blacksmith Association.”
“Hello, President. It is with Wulin’s help that I have a deeper understanding of forging, which is why I am confident in getting the certification of a fourth-level blacksmith.” Xu Yuan said modestly.
According to the request of his uncle, he did not report to his master.
“Well, you take the test first.” Seeing that Xu Yuan did not take the initiative to introduce more, Mu Chen did not ask any more questions. He planned to see what Xu Yuan’s forging techniques were like.
Generally speaking, the one who can teach such an outstanding blacksmith genius must be a big figure in the blacksmith world. How can a blacksmith who is only a level five blacksmith teach a ten-year-old level four blacksmith?
At least one needs to reach the level of a Saint Craftsman to have this ability.
Xu Yuan started a fire and began to smelt the rare metals.
Compared to Tang Wulin’s experience, Xu Yuan’s techniques are more varied.
Even though he was young, Tang Wulin had never fallen behind in the basics of forging. All his achievements were gained on the basis of the basic skills that Muchen and Mangtian had taught him to practice hard. Although he was young, his forging techniques were quite sophisticated.
As for Xu Yuan, his techniques are not unfamiliar, but he pays more attention to changes.
His hammer was erratic, but each blow was powerful.
The overall feeling is like…
Substitutes are always available!
That’s right, depending on the degree of metal forging, whether it is the force of the hammer, the angle, or even the timing of the fall, they are all changing to find the best answer.
Mu Chen narrowed his eyes.
The overall feeling is changeable and erratic, but the force-generating techniques used by Xu Yuan Forging and the rhythmic steps of hammering in each step are all regular.
It can also be seen as a sequence of steps in processing rare metals.
This is what is called forging inheritance.
The more he watched, the more familiar Mu Chen felt.
Faintly, he seemed to see a figure.
His face became darker and darker.
Bang!
Xu Yuan’s hammer fell, and a golden light shot up from the silver in front of him, lasting for more than ten seconds before fading.
“Thousand-forged first grade!” Mu Chen exclaimed.
He smiled bitterly and said, “After one thousand forgings, you can directly obtain the fourth-level blacksmith badge.”
Generally speaking, according to the association’s regulations, a fourth-level blacksmith must first successfully forge Thousand Forged Metal twice in a row, and at the same time shape it. A second-level Thousand Forged Metal can directly qualify as a fourth-level blacksmith.
Xu Yuan had not yet reached the threshold of level four.
Under Tang Wulin’s guidance, he had already comprehended the threshold of the First Thousand Forgings Level, which was considered a grade skip. Zhenhua was excited when he knew about it and asked him to show off to Muchen, but he still seriously reminded Xu Yuan that he must make up for the basics.
“Who is your forging teacher?” Although Mu Chen already had some guesses, he still didn’t give up.
“I don’t have a forging teacher. I learned the forging skills from my uncle.” Xu Yuan said.
Mu Chen frowned, his eyes flickered, and after a while he suddenly realized.
“Are you from the main sect?”
“yes.”
Muchen nodded.
After looking at Xu Yuan carefully again, he could only sigh helplessly.
“What a pity! You are learning auxiliary forging methods. Why don’t you learn the orthodox forging technique?”
Auxiliary forging?
Tang Wulin was confused at first, and then he seemed to remember the meaning of auxiliary training.
Brother Xu, is this the method of auxiliary forging?
No wonder they cooperated so well the day before yesterday.
However, even though he was only assisting in forging, he had already reached the first level of Thousand Forgings.
Tang Wulin felt unprecedented pressure.
“Wulin has a good talent for forging. You two can cooperate more and perhaps you can complement each other in forging.” Mu Chen gave a suggestion.
If there is an assistant forger who cooperates with the forger, it will indeed be much easier for the forger to improve his forging skills.
Xu Yuan did not respond to this question directly.
He still felt reluctant about two grown men practicing forging together every day.
Even if he wanted to find someone who could complement each other, Xu Yuan would rather find a girl from Xingluo Continent who also had great forging talent.
Xu Yuan’s goal this time had been achieved. After talking with Muchen for a few words, he had nothing more to say and left the Blacksmith Association.
As Xu Yuan left, Mu Chen glared at Tang Wulin fiercely.
“Wulin, look at Xu Yuan, he has already reached the first level of Thousand Forgings. You need to work harder in your forging skills!”
Tang Wulin said weakly: “Teacher, I can actually reach the first level of Thousand Refining. I came to the association this time to tell you this news.”
“What? You can also reach the first level of Thousand Forging?”
Muchen was shocked and very surprised, and urged Tang Wulin to demonstrate it.
“Uncle Master, I have completed the certification.”
“Well, have you met the president of the East Sea City Blacksmith Association?”
“We’ve met. He was the one who presided over my assessment.”
“Well, did he ask you about your identity?”
“I said I learned it from my uncle. I am a disciple of the Benti Sect.”
“Huh? You know the relationship between him and me?”
“Yes, that’s what my uncle said.”
Tiandou City, in the office of the Blacksmith Association headquarters, Zhenhua twitched the corner of his mouth, feeling that something was missing.
After he hung up the phone, he waited patiently for the line to ring again.
However, no matter how long he waited, there was still no soul guide communication from Mu Chen.
“Is this guy so focused?”
