"Haha … hahaha … this is perfect! This is amazing! Junior brother, you're my lucky star! "Yang Yingming's excited laughter echoed throughout the room.
Lan Xuanyu relaxed when he saw that it was him. "Senior brother, let me down first," he said helplessly.
Yang Yingming waved his arms and legs, looking like he was going crazy. Under Lan Xuanyu's repeated calls, he finally put Lan Xuanyu down.
Lan Xuanyu looked at him in confusion. "Senior brother, what's wrong with you?"
"I did it, I did it, I did it! Hahaha … I'm at the fifth rank now! I'm a fifth-rank blacksmith now! I wanted to try that piece of heavy silver you sold me, but I didn't expect to succeed on my first try. I've completed my first Spirit Refinement. You know what Spirit Refinement is, right? It's a process that allows the metal to gain sentience and gain its own spirituality. It can be said to be a metamorphosis. If the Spirit Refinement fails, the metal will be useless. The most difficult step for blacksmiths is to Spirit Refine. It requires a lot of resources. This is my first success! I did it, I did it! I did it! Spirit Refinement means I'm a fifth-rank blacksmith now. Haha! I'm first in the outer court. We don't have a fifth-rank blacksmith in the outer court yet. "
Lan Xuanyu was pleasantly surprised. "Congratulations, Senior brother. With your first success, it'll be much easier in the future. "
Yang Yingming was already grinning from ear to ear. "I'm going to show off. I'm going to show off in class. Hahaha … with the ability of a fifth-rank blacksmith, I'll have a better chance of entering the inner court next year. I'll take my leave first, brother. Thank you for bringing me such good luck. "With that, he turned around and ran off.
A fifth-rank blacksmith, Spirit Refinement? Lan Xuanyu couldn't help but yearn for it.
There were so few blacksmiths in the outer court. There weren't any fifth-rank blacksmiths before.
However, Lan Xuanyu was able to analyze the situation from Yang Yingming's words. Without a doubt, blacksmithing was the most difficult of all the auxiliary professions. It had a low success rate and a lack of rare metals. This was a huge problem for blacksmiths.
Furthermore, even if he completed the Thousand Refinements, he would only be able to create a one-word battle armor. According to Shrek Academy's requirements, two-word battle armor had to be made of at least spirit refined metals. It was simply too difficult to reach the spirit refinement realm. In other words, in the outer court, students had to forge their own suits of two-word battle armor. If they wanted to forge their own, they would have to reach the spirit refinement level. The difficulty was so great, and it required a lot of time and energy. Naturally, there were very few people who chose it.
Previously, Lan Xuanyu had not been clear about this. Only now did he manage to analyze it. He couldn't help but feel grateful to Uncle Yue. If it wasn't for Uncle Yue's guidance, he wouldn't have been able to improve so quickly. He hadn't expected to be able to Thousand Refine after a few months of hard work. He didn't even know when he would be able to Spirit Refine.
After resting for a while, Lan Xuanyu carefully forged the two pieces of Thousand Refined Heavy Silver into hammers before leaving the Blacksmith's Association and returning to his dorm.
Today was Saturday, and tomorrow was a rest day. The day after tomorrow, which was next Monday, they would have their final exam. This semester's final exam was their first exam after entering Shrek Academy. Naturally, it was quite important and also a test of their cultivation results for the entire semester.
After defeating the third years, Lan Xuanyu and the others kept a low profile. They didn't do anything eye-catching and only worked hard to cultivate and study. However, at the end of the semester, the attention of the first years naturally gathered on them. The final exam was undoubtedly the best opportunity to test the strength of their first years' number one team.
Lan Xuanyu knew very well that the other students were holding their breaths, hoping to surpass them through the final exam. But how could those people have the chance?
"Beep beep beep." At this moment, Lan Xuanyu's Shrek communicator suddenly rang.
Looking at the number, he smiled and picked up the call. "Qianqiu."
"En, let's go to the auction tomorrow? I want to eat coconut jelly. "Dong Qianqiu's gentle voice came from the other side.
"Okay, I'll treat you tomorrow," Lan Xuanyu said with a smile.
"En, see you tomorrow evening," Dong Qianqiu said.
"En."
Other than attending classes, they would only meet on the weekends because they were all busy cultivating the rest of the time. After a few months, the relationship between the six people in their small team had become closer and their friendship was warming up.
After Lan Xuanyu defeated the third years with the Heavenly Sacred Splitting Abyss Halberd, Tang Yuge and the others, he had completely established his leadership position in the team. Even Lan Mengqin was amazed by his strength.
Yuanen Hui-hui was the strongest, but he didn't have much leadership ability. He had also received Lan Xuanyu's help many times and was almost obedient to Lan Xuanyu. Lan Xuanyu's previous commands had benefited the entire team and strengthened everyone's confidence in Lan Xuanyu.
In a team, unity was the most important thing, followed by individual strength.
There were only thirty-six students in the first years, so how many teams like theirs could they form? In fact, there were other students who wanted to join, such as Bing Tianliang and the others, as well as those who could be enhanced by Lan Xuanyu and use Martial Soul Fusion skills. But because they had a lot of people, if they joined Lan Xuanyu's team, Lan Xuanyu's team would be too huge. Therefore, Lan Xuanyu rejected them and said that they were all classmates and would definitely help each other in the future.
Tang Zhenhua had told Lan Xuanyu in private that the first semester's final exam was very important. Not only was it a chance for them to test themselves, but it was also the first time the academy's higher-ups had set their sights on them. If they could get good results in this exam, it would lay the foundation for their future development in the academy. If they wanted to get the academy's resources, they had to show enough ability.
There was no doubt that Lan Xuanyu's team had already received a lot of attention through the competition with the third years. Then, whether they could continue to receive attention or not, this final exam was extremely important.
Going to the auction tomorrow was also a good opportunity. They all had quite a bit of savings, so it was obviously necessary to use the auction to obtain some resources for the final exam.
The biggest problem for Lan Xuanyu's team was that they didn't have a pure support-type soul master. In other words, their battle endurance would be relatively weaker.
For support-type soul masters, food-type soul masters were the best. They could enhance and recover energy, but food-type soul masters had always been rare. Therefore, they had to be prepared in this regard.
Sunday was free time, so Lan Xuanyu struck while the iron was hot. During the day, he forged Heavy Silver at the Blacksmith's Association so that he could grasp the characteristics of the rare metal as soon as possible.
After Lan Xuanyu switched to the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammers, the forging effect was indeed different. If a worker wanted to do a good job, he must first sharpen his tools. This saying was absolutely reasonable. With the use of the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammers, his soul power and bloodline power were more easily transmitted to the metal. The feedback from the metal was also many times clearer than before.
In one day, he forged a total of ten pieces of Heavy Silver, and every piece was successfully forged. The best piece even emitted a five-foot-tall light.
Even Lan Xuanyu was a little surprised by the speed of his improvement. He knew that this should have a lot to do with his bloodline power. Whether it was to make the metal more stable or to give him a strong recovery ability and physical strength, it was the key to successful forging. Of course, the most important thing was Uncle Yue's guidance.
A piece of Thousand Refined Heavy Silver could be sold for five white emblems, so ten pieces were worth fifty white emblems. In one day, he had earned at least three yellow emblems. This was definitely the path to wealth!
However, Lan Xuanyu also clearly remembered what Yang Yingming said about the difficulty of Spirit Refining in the future, so he didn't dare to sell his Heavy Silver at this time. He planned to accumulate more before doing so. There was still time. He planned to use first-grade Thousand Refined Heavy Silver to make One-Word Battle Armors for himself and his teammates. He believed that it wouldn't be long before he could reach that level. There was still a semester left, so it should be about time.
