Moon's voice caused the public square of the Divine Weapon Academy to fall silent. Many who recognized Moon all had strange expressions on their faces. A few days ago, Moon's behavior in the academy was already somewhat strange. And now, she even said such arrogant words.
Rong Yan and Shen Jing were both extremely famous in the Divine Weapon Academy. Both of them could forge top-tier fourth-ranked divine weapons, and their proficiency in weaponsmithing was extraordinary. This Moon actually issued a challenge to Shen Jing and Rong Yan, it seemed that it was for the sake of her friend.
Rong Yan and Shen Jing both felt bewildered. Shen Jing's beautiful eyes flashed with coldness as she stared at Qin Wentian, "It's best if you don't leave."
After speaking, her silhouette soared up into the air as her violet dress fluttered in the wind. Her figure was graceful and beautiful, and she also appeared at the top level of the pagoda. She then spoke to Moon, "You don't know what's good for you."
After which, she turned to Wang Yunfei as she smiled and nodded, "Senior."
"Mhm." Wang Yunfei nodded. This Shen Jing's proficiency in weaponsmithing was extraordinary, and her background wasn't bad as well. In addition to her beauty, Wang Yunfei did have a favorable impression of her. However, Moon was a girl he had never paid attention to before. Regardless of demeanor or beauty, she wasn't in any way inferior to Shen Jing. Especially at this moment, the competitive intent radiating from her, and the coldness in her clear eyes made her even more attractive.
"Arrogant." Rong Yan's countenance grew incredibly unsightly as he stared at Qin Wentian, "If you lose, let alone humiliating him, he might not even be able to walk out of the Divine Weapon Academy alive today."
After speaking, he also soared up into the air, descending to the last seat at the top level of the pagoda.
The four seats at the top level were all occupied by the four of them. The others also ascended the pagoda, all of them prepared to put on a good performance. This battle would surely attract the attention of many elders in the academy.
Scorching heat permeated the air, and the people on the top level all took out the forging materials they had prepared beforehand. After which, they began to forge their weapons in the special area of the pagoda.
"The flames emanating from the Equipment Refining Pagoda are connected to all the refining positions. Furthermore, they can control the temperature of the flames. This is amazing." Qin Wentian's eyes were emotionless as he quietly watched the people on the Refining Pagoda start to refine their weapons. Rong Yan and Shen Jing were not polite to him, but in fact, Qin Wentian did not care about them at all. They were just two passersby, he did not care about them at all.
As for Moon, she truly had a kind heart. Towards such a person, he wouldn't be stingy with helping them out. In any case, Moon herself was also extremely outstanding.
Tomorrow would be the day of his arranged battle with Di Shi. Maybe after today, he would never be able to meet Moon again.
Qin Wentian silently admired Moon's forging. Each and every movement, each and every step, although they weren't that breathtaking, they were extremely solid. In this aspect, even he, Qin Wentian, felt ashamed of his own inferiority. Although his divine inscriptions were powerful, in other aspects, he truly couldn't be compared to Moon.
Although Moon's performance wasn't that breathtaking, Qin Wentian believed that as long as the weaponsmiths of the academy weren't blind, they would be able to tell that Moon was a talent worth nurturing.
This year's examination was at the end of the year. The seniors of the Divine Weapon Academy were spectating, and there would be people specially recording their forging process. Nobody dared to be careless, as this would determine what resources they would be able to obtain in the coming year. Everyone put their all into forging their own divine weapons, with no time to care about anything else.
Wang Yunfei's side attracted the most gazes. He was forging a divine robe that was extremely thin. This type of divine weapon was exceedingly difficult to forge, one had to inscribe powerful defensive divine inscriptions on it to weaken the attacks of others. Wang Yunfei actually chose to forge such a divine weapon under such circumstances. From this, one could see how confident he was.
Many of the weaponsmiths in the spectator stands had smiles on their faces. However, Wang Yunfei already had a master, and they had no hope of accepting him as a disciple.
Shen Jing was forging a divine ruler, Rong Yan was forging a long spear, and Moon seemed to be forging a pair of divine feathers.
"This little doll's guts isn't small." Some of the weaponsmiths in the spectator stands stared at Moon. Forging a pair of divine feathers was definitely an extremely daring attempt. One must know that there was a time limit for the year-end examination. The examinees had to complete the forging of their divine weapons within the specified time limit, it was impossible for them to have unlimited time.
"It's time to inscribe the divine inscriptions. As long as this segment isn't messed up, Moon will defeat Shen Jing and Rong Yan without any suspense." Qin Wentian laughed. The divine inscription Moon was preparing to inscribe was one of the divine inscriptions he taught her. It was a combination of offense and defense, as well as speed. It was exceedingly complex and once it was inscribed, it would completely surpass Shen Jing and Rong Yan.
Moon's fingers were slightly longer, and her fair hands were extremely beautiful to look at. Not only that, her movements were extremely stable. She was completely focused on inscribing divine inscriptions, her heart as calm as still water. Right now, what she was thinking about wasn't how she would be valued by the elders or how she would be able to obtain the best resources in the academy. Rather, she was thinking about defeating Shen Jing and Rong Yan, allowing Qin Wentian to gain respect.
Time slowly flowed by, and as a beam of light flashed, Wang Yunfei was the first to complete the forging of his divine weapon, causing many to nod their heads in approval.
After Wang Yunfei completed his forging, he turned his gaze onto Moon and Shen Jing. Very swiftly, his gaze froze. The divine inscriptions Moon was inscribing were extraordinary, and the materials she used were all of the highest quality. Clearly, she was aiming to forge a peak-tier fourth-ranked divine weapon.
Wang Yunfei's countenance grew increasingly heavy. The beautiful eyes of Moon, who was clad in white, were filled with calmness. Sweat could be seen on her fair neck and collarbone, but that expression of concentration actually caused Wang Yunfei's heart to stir.
Glancing at Shen Jing again, there was a look of frustration in her eyes, as though she wasn't too satisfied with the divine weapon she forged. That arrogant look on her face was akin to a princess, completely different from Moon's demeanor. However, at this moment, Wang Yunfei discovered that Moon, whom he had never paid attention to before, actually moved his heart even more compared to Shen Jing.
On top of the weaponsmithing pagoda, more and more people finished their forging. For a period of time, the entire pagoda was filled with the sharpness of divine weapons, as the humming sounds of weapons resonated unceasingly.
"It's done." At this moment, Rong Yan heaved a sigh of relief. His long spear had been successfully forged.
"I'm done as well," Shen Jing faintly spoke. Her fire-colored ruler had been completed.
The two of them glanced over at Moon, only to see her waiting for her divine weapon to cool down. Her beautiful wings exuded a sense of beauty. Shen Jing sarcastically spoke, "Divine weapons aren't useful just because they look good."
After speaking, she took out her own divine weapon and infused her astral energy into it. Instantly, terrifying flames gushed forth, resembling the roar of a flaming ferocious bird, terrifying to the extreme.
"A top-grade fourth-ranked divine weapon. Not only that, it can be considered not bad among the top-grade ones," Wang Yunfei faintly stated.
"Many thanks, senior." Shen Jing elegantly smiled. Wang Yunfei lightly nodded his head.
Rong Yan also infused his astral energy into his long spear, causing a terrifying sharpness to erupt forth from it. It was also a top-grade fourth-ranked divine weapon, comparable to Shen Jing's.
The two of them turned their gazes onto Moon only to see her waving her hands as a pair of wings appeared on her back. The pure white light radiating from the wings was so resplendent, slowly flapping. At this moment, Moon was like an angel, pure and flawless.
"Bzzz!" The wings fluttered as a terrifying silvery light erupted forth, resembling a silver-white ferocious bird soaring up into the skies, exuding a fearsome might that caused the hearts of Shen Jing and Rong Yan to tremble.
In the next instant, Moon's body floated up into the air. The pure white wings radiated a brilliant light as she stared at the dumbfounded Shen Jing and Rong Yan.
There was no need to say anything else.
"How can this be possible?" Rong Yan's countenance was incredibly ugly to behold.
"The divine weapon forged by junior sister Moon is a peak-tier fourth-ranked one. Not only that, it has both offense and defense, and it also has an advantage in speed. It's far from something your divine weapon can compare to." Wang Yunfei faintly spoke. At this moment, Rong Yan stared at that angelic silhouette, silently cursing himself for being blind in the past. Why didn't he pursue such a girl?
Shen Jing's countenance alternated between shades of green and white. She didn't expect things to turn out like this.
"Shen Jing, if you apologize to my friend together with Rong Yan, I can forget about this matter." Moon coldly spoke. Shen Jing was still as arrogant as ever, "You want me to apologize to such a lowly person? Dream on. Moon, even if your weaponsmithing abilities aren't bad, you are only fit to be friends with such a person."
"Fine, from now onwards, scram out of the Divine Weapon Academy." Moon's countenance was ice cold.
"You …" Shen Jing stared at Moon. The two beauties stared at each other. Wang Yunfei laughed when he saw this scene, "Junior sister Moon, your weaponsmithing abilities are extraordinary. Later on, I will bring you to meet Master and beg him to accept you as a disciple. How about that?"
Moon's beautiful eyes flashed with surprise. Wang Yunfei's senior brother was a major character in the Divine Weapon Academy. A look of joy flashed in her eyes as she turned to Wang Yunfei, "Many thanks, senior brother."
"No worries." Wang Yunfei smiled in a carefree manner. For such an outstanding woman like Moon, he naturally had some thoughts in his heart.
"Junior sister Shen Jing, what grudge do you have with junior sister Moon? Why must you act like this? Why don't I help you resolve it?" Wang Yunfei spoke to Shen Jing.
Not long ago, Shen Jing was still filled with jealousy and anger. But now when she heard Wang Yunfei's words, she felt joy in her heart. She then replied, "A few days ago, I met a person who just arrived in the Sacred Royal City. He knew that Rong Yan and I are students of the Divine Weapon Academy and hence, he intentionally got close to us. After that, he begged us to recommend him to the Divine Weapon Academy. We recommended him to be Moon's apprentice, but who would have thought that this person didn't know what's good for him. Now, I wonder if he and Moon have developed feelings for each other because of their weaponsmithing, causing him to be so arrogant."
Wang Yunfei understood in his heart, he didn't expect it to be because of a mere apprentice. He couldn't help but to smile, "Junior sister Moon, I can introduce many outstanding apprentices to you."
"Senior brother, things aren't like what Shen Jing said. Shen Jing and Rong Yan didn't respect others." Moon spoke.
"How about this, I'll apologize to you on behalf of junior sister Shen Jing. After all, we are fellow apprentice sisters, don't let such a small matter affect the harmony between us." Wang Yunfei spoke.
Moon felt somewhat unhappy in her heart when she heard Wang Yunfei saying that it was a small matter. However, she still respected this genius senior brother of hers. Hence, she added, "This matter has nothing to do with senior brother, there's no need for senior brother to apologize."
Wang Yunfei had a satisfied smile on his face when he heard this. "That settles it then. I will recommend some outstanding apprentice weapons to junior sister. Junior sister Moon, please don't ruin the harmony between us for the sake of a mere apprentice weapon. After all, an apprentice weapon is just an apprentice weapon, it is destined that he will never be one of us."
Moon started again. She stared at Wang Yunfei, feeling somewhat disappointed. Her gaze shifted downwards as her beautiful eyes froze. She saw Qin Wentian carrying Little Rascal in his arms as he turned to leave.
"Not 'us'. Wang Yunfei, I didn't expect you to be such a person as well." Moon's countenance turned completely cold. After which, she walked downwards as she called out, "Tianwen."
Qin Wentian turned his head and smiled at Moon, "Moon, your examination has already ended. It's time for me to leave. Don't be unhappy because of me."
"Hypocrite." Shen Jing couldn't help but coldly snort when she saw Wang Yunfei's countenance turning incredibly ugly.
"Seems like the two of them are indeed in cahoots." Rong Yan didn't conceal his voice at all, causing everyone in the public square to hear it clearly.
What status did Wang Yunfei have in the academy? Yet today, he was actually being criticized by others. His gaze turned to Qin Wentian and Moon as he icily spoke, "A mere apprentice, what kind of place do you take my Divine Weapon Academy for? Do you think you can come and go as you please?"
Although his temper wasn't bad, and earlier he wanted to resolve the conflict between Moon and Shen Jing in front of everyone, wanting to gain a favorable impression from both of them. However, because of a mere apprentice, Moon actually fell out with him. He, Wang Yunfei, was actually inferior to a mere apprentice?
Qin Wentian inclined his head, calmly glancing at Wang Yunfei. He initially wanted to quietly spectate this examination, but who would have thought that such a huge commotion would occur.
He lifted his foot and stepped out, causing rumbling sounds to echo out. On the public square, divine inscriptions flashed as they extended outwards unceasingly. Qin Wentian continued stepping out, and an instant later, the incomparably exquisite divine inscriptions on the ground radiated a terrifying light as the roars of terrifying ferocious beasts could be heard.
"This …" Terror appeared on the faces of the crowd. How could this be possible? One divine inscription per step? Not only that, they were all powerful fourth-ranked divine inscriptions.
"You aren't qualified to speak to me like this." Qin Wentian stared straight at Wang Yunfei.
