Chapter 1140: The So-Called Master

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Magic Weapon, Common Grade, Rank Two.”

The triangular-eyed man appraised the sword and read out the result.

There was an uproar in the surroundings. Someone said with an envious look, “It’s a Rank Two! Yan Shan that b*stard has made a fortune.”

“Right? Master Wu is doing well today. He succeeded on his first try. He earned 8 sets of materials just like that.”

“What’s the use of being envious? Master Wu is the chief blacksmith of the 10,000 Treasures Pavilion. Who can compare to his status? With 50% of his ability, earning spirit coins is no different from drinking water.”

Under the envious gazes of the crowd, a middle-aged man wearing leather armor walked out from the crowd.. With a joyful expression on his face, he came to the side of the triangular-eyed man and bowed respectfully.

“Master Wu, you’ve worked hard. Here are the other 8 sets of materials.”

The middle-aged man took out an interspatial bag and handed it over. Master Wu took the interspatial bag and inspected it before nodding.

Inside the interspatial bag, there were indeed 8 sets of materials. No one dared to play tricks with him here.

Pointing at the magic longsword at the side, the triangular-eyed man said, “That’s your item. Take it.”

The middle-aged man thanked him again and took the sword.

Wu Qingquan glanced at the crowd again and said arrogantly, “Who else needs a magic weapon? Just prepare 9 sets of materials as usual.”

The crowd became lively again, and everyone rushed to the front.

“Me, me...”

“Master Wu, I’ve prepared the materials.”

The warriors said loudly as the crowd gathered.

Many people stayed here to wait for their opportunity. In the territories of the Dragons in the Great Wide World, blacksmiths were very rare. It was not easy to get a suitable piece of equipment.

Powerful blacksmiths were hard to come by. If one went to the Chamber of Commerce to buy magic weapons, not only would they be expensive, but they would also not be what one truly desired.

On the other hand, asking blacksmiths to smith a piece of equipment was different. At the very least, a blacksmith would give his opinion, which was equivalent to customizing a piece of equipment, which would be of a different level.

The triangular-eyed man curled the corners of his mouth. He had seen this situation many times. He swept his gaze across the crowd, then he pointed at a person and said, “You.”

That person walked out in pleasant surprise and respectfully handed over the materials.

The materials taken out were of high quality. They were used to refine magic weapons, so how could they be bad?

Ou Yangming was dumbstruck. He suddenly discovered a great plan to make a fortune. These high-quality materials were too easy to come by.

9 sets of materials meant that the success rate would be guaranteed to be 100%. Even a slightly skilled blacksmith could earn more than half of the materials.

This was simply daylight robbery!

Moreover, Ou Yangming discovered that the triangular-eyed blacksmith was not that skilled. His fire was only an ordinary spiritual fire, which was far from his purple fire.

Ou Yangming continued to observe silently. After getting the materials, the triangular-eyed man immediately began to refine. The young fellow observed his smithing method.

After a while, he saw a movement from the blacksmith and shook his head.

Under the burning of the flames, a crack appeared on the armor. The triangular-eyed man’s expression changed slightly. He wanted to fix it, but it was too late.

With a crack, the armor exploded.

He failed!

The people around felt sorry. A failure in smithing meant that the materials were wasted. At the same time, the time they had to wait would be extended again.

As for the triangular-eyed man, he did not look too good. He recalled the movement just now and frowned. It was as if 2 centipedes had climbed onto his forehead.

After a while, he started to work again.

15 minutes had passed, and the blacksmith reached the same step as the last time. His movements did not change.

As expected, the materials exploded again.

2 of the 9 sets of materials had been lost. There were still 7 sets left, but the person who requested Master Wu to refine his weapon did not look optimistic.

He also sensed that Master Wu seemed to be in some kind of trouble.

If the master did not solve the problem, he would definitely fail again.

Master Wu looked around and said in a deep voice, “Smithing armor is more difficult than smithing other pieces of equipment. It’s normal to fail twice.”

“Smithing is a high-risk job, to begin with. Even the most brilliant blacksmith wouldn’t dare to say that he’d succeed for sure.”

“Master Wu is already very powerful. He’ll surely succeed next time.”

The people around hurriedly expressed.

They did not care if the armor succeeded or not. What they cared about was that Master Wu would quickly finish the armor so that their turn would come.

In the East City Square, there were a few masters who could smith magic weapons, but everyone still trusted Master Wu More.

The triangular-eyed man did not pay attention to the people around him. This time, he calmed down and thought for a while. After a while, he started smithing again.

This time, Ou Yangming found that he used another smithing method. As expected, after ignoring the previous level, the magic weapon was successfully smithed.

However, the rank of the item...

Ou Yangming glanced at it casually and knew that the armor was only a Common Grade Rank One magic weapon.

Master Wu had used a simple and crude method to increase his success rate at the expense of the magic weapon’s rank. Such a method was very shameless.

‘That’s too wasteful!’ Ou Yangming thought to himself. The materials prepared by the person were very precious. If they were in his hands, he could at least refine a Common Grade Rank Five magic weapon, and it would even be normal if a Good Grade one was made. Even some of the more powerful blacksmiths would have been able to create a Common Grade Rank Three magic weapon.

9 sets of such precious materials had only been exchanged for a Common Grade Rank One magic armor. Ou Yangming felt that it was unworthy.

As expected, after that person received the armor, he did not look too good. The rank was far lower than what he had expected. Even so, in front of Master Wu, that person did not dare to show it on his face. He could only keep the armor and not show any displeasure.

Ou Yangming shook his head, and a hint of disdain flashed in his eyes. He had lost interest in this, and this happened to be seen by Wu Qingquan.

Wu Qingquan knew what he had done just now was somewhat disgraceful, but there was nothing he could do.

If he did not do that, he would still fail the next few times.

It was a little immoral, but it would protect his reputation. Besides, none of the people present were blacksmiths, so no one could see the secret behind it.

“Stop!”

Just as Ou Yangming turned around to leave, he suddenly heard a shout behind him.

He turned around and saw Wu Qingquan’s angry gaze.

Ou Yangming frowned slightly. ‘I hadn’t offended him, had I?’

“Young fella, what was your expression just now? Were you looking down on me?” Wu Qingquan’s gaze was gloomy and when he spoke, there was a hint of threat in his tone.

He had always been a proud person. From his perspective, Ou Yangming was looking down on him just now. If the young fellow was a powerhouse or a blacksmith, he would not have lost his temper. How dare a young fellow mock him?

“Young fella, hurry up and apologize to Master Wu. Do you know who he is?” When the surrounding people heard Wu Qingquan’s words, they focused on Ou Yangming.

This young fellow actually dared to provoke Master Wu without knowing what was good for him. He was simply courting death.

Ou Yangming did not intend to have anything to do with the blacksmith. The man was deceiving people, but it had nothing to do with him, and he did not intend to expose him.

Unexpectedly, the blacksmith provoked him first.

The corners of Ou Yangming’s mouth carried a faint smile. He glanced at Wu Qingquan then said to the people around him, “I really don’t know him.”

Ou Yangming did not lie. The only person he was familiar with was Long Er, who was someone he had met after coming here for the first time.

Wu Qingquan was the chief blacksmith of the 10,000 Treasures Pavilion, and he often appeared in the East City Square. Not everyone on the Hidden Dragons Island knew him but at least 90% of the people did.

Ou Yangming saying that he did not know Master Wu sounded like a mock to Wu Qingquan.

The surrounding people also clicked their tongues. The young fellow was too bold. Offending a smithing on Hidden Dragons Island was the most unwise act, not to mention that Wu Qingquan was one of the best here.

“Are you looking down on me?”

Wu Qingquan’s eyes carried a bit of coldness. The young fellow had thoroughly angered him.

Ou Yangming smiled faintly. He took a step forward and questioned calmly, “So what if I am? You’re just fishing for fame. Why are you acting like a big-tailed wolf here?”

“B*stard, I’m an Advanced Blacksmith recognized by the Blacksmiths Association. What right do you have to question me?” Wu Qingquan was exasperated. If it were not for the fact that he couldn’t make a move here, he would tear Ou Yangming into pieces.

Ou Yangming chuckled. “What right do I need to question you? Taking the armor just now for an example. The materials that that gentleman gave you could clearly be used to refine an armor above Common Grade Rank Three. After you failed twice in a row, you actually lowered its quality on purpose to guarantee success, causing it to become a Rank One. Not only did you not explain to the gentleman, but you even went against your conscience and took the rest of the materials from him. Given your character, how could you be worthy of being called a master?”

Although Ou Yangming’s voice was not loud, every word sounded like thunder in the air. He did not give Wu Qingquan any face at all.

“Seriously?”

“Is what the young fella said true or false?”

The onlookers started to discuss in low voices. They felt that what the young fellow said made sense.

They did not know how to smith, but they could still recognize the materials. The materials taken out by the person earlier were very precious, yet the armor that was successfully smithed was only of Common Grade Rank One. Could something fishy be going on?

Others might not know whether what Ou Yangming said was true or not, but the person who asked Wu Qingquan to smith the armor knew very well.

He looked at Ou Yangming with some excitement. The young fellow said what he did not dare to say.

After hearing Ou Yangming’s words and looking at the expressions of the crows, Wu Qingquan’s eyes were sharp. A powerful pressure surged toward the young fellow.

“Nonsense. A child who doesn’t know how to smith is talking nonsense here. If you dare to ruin my reputation again, don’t blame me for being ruthless!”

“You know best whether I’m spouting nonsense or not. “Ou Yangming’s gaze shifted, and he chuckled. “If you want evidence, that’s easy.”
