The outskirts of the Flooding Lake City.
On a dark and swarthy mountain, only a few trees could be seen. The entire place was barren.
This mountain was called Tiegan Mountain and although it didn't look like much, it would be a huge mistake to underestimate it.
A mountain wasn't famous because it had celestials; a water wasn't deep because it had dragons.
The Tiegan Mountain was famous in the Flooding Lake area and was named after its owner 'Tiegan Master'.
Miao miao!
The human and cat stepped onto the Tiegan Mountain as if there was no one else around.
The little thieving cat happily jumped around on the mountain.
Zhao Feng's God's Spiritual Eye scanned over the Tiegan Mountain and caught the dense Heaven Earth Fire Yuan Qi.
Ever since he stepped onto the mountain, the temperature had obviously risen.
"There's definitely lava in this Tiegan Mountain and even Earth Vein Fire."
Zhao Feng's eyes twinkled.
He had dabbled in the path of forging and wasn't any weaker than normal blacksmiths. However, compared to a grandmaster, there was an insurmountable gap.
Zhao Feng and the little thieving cat walked up the mountain and didn't ride the Azure Sharp Swallow.
Before leaving, Zhao Feng had already found out that Tiegan Master didn't like people disturbing his peace and even forbade his pets from staying on the mountain.
Soon, a silver palace appeared on the top of the mountain.
This palace was called Tiegan Palace and it was where Tiegan Master forged items.
At this time, there were some people entering and exiting the mountain. Most of them had disappointed expressions as they returned without any success.
"Aye, Tiegan Master doesn't see guests and even his three disciples' spots have been arranged for half a year later."
Most of the people coming and going were at the Ascended Realm.
In the Canopy Great Country, martial arts were prevalent. Whether it was the mortal world or the Sect world, strength was everything.
If a True Spirit Realm expert came, the Tiegan Palace would send someone to meet them. Or if the guest had some sort of background or identity, they could be accommodated.
When Zhao Feng took out the Flooding Liu Token, the people from the Tiegan Palace only glanced at him and didn't say anything before letting him in.
The relationship between Tiegan Master and the Flooding Lake City Lord wasn't good, but the Liu family was the overlord of this generation and the Tiegan Palace wouldn't offend them.
A man and a cat entered Tiegan Manor.
At the same time, in a secluded place near Tiegan Manor.
"He entered Tiegan Mountain, quickly report to the City Lord."
Three men in dark robes stood behind a pile of rubble. One of them quickly left.
Whoosh!
Not long after Zhao Feng entered Tiegan Manor, another dark robed man also slowly snuck in.
He flashed a token in his hand, causing the expressions of the guards of Tiegan Manor to change slightly.
Ever since the Groom Search Competition, a total of four Half-step Mortal Shedding Stage cultivators had been secretly monitoring Zhao Feng's every move.
At the beginning, there was even an expert at the True Spirit Realm.
On one hand, the Flooding Lake City Lord wanted to find out more about Zhao Feng. On the other hand, he was worried that Zhao Feng would escape.
However, ever since Zhao Feng moved into the City Lord's Mansion, he had been well-behaved. He cultivated quietly and even helped tame the spirit pets of the City Lord's Mansion.
Gradually, the Flooding Lake City Lord started to trust Zhao Feng and started to admire him.
Half a month ago, the True Spirit Realm cultivator monitoring Zhao Feng had been taken away.
After entering Tiegan Manor, Zhao Feng wasn't received.
Even if he said that he was the son-in-law of the City Lord, he wouldn't receive much attention because it was understood that the relationship between the Flooding Lake City Lord and Tiegan Master wasn't good.
Zhao Feng thought for a while before entering an exhibition hall within Tiegan Manor.
Within the hall, there were all sorts of items including weapons, armor, jewelry, etc.
Some of these items were personally made by Tiegan Master while others were made by his disciples. All of them were of high quality and made people sigh in admiration.
Zhao Feng casually looked at a few and found that even the items made by Tiegan Master's disciples were better than some of the older blacksmiths of the Broken Moon Clan.
As for Tiegan Master's own items, they were even more perfect and were like treasures of art.
The spectators exclaimed, including some blacksmiths who came because of their fame.
Many experts and blacksmiths wanted to buy some of the items.
However, most of the items here weren't for sale. They either needed the agreement of the owner or the price was ridiculously high, exceeding the value of the item by ten times.
All in all.
It was extremely hard to buy the items here unless one's cultivation was high enough to talk to someone with power in the Tiegan Manor or had enough connections.
These works were mainly for exhibition. To put it more bluntly, they were used to show off Tiegan Manor's forging abilities.
Zhao Feng casually picked up a scarlet gold long sword and lightly touched it. The material of the sword had been smelted to the extreme and the surface of the sword was like a mirror.
"What broken sword! The refining method is so shoddy. "
A disdainful voice sounded.
Instantly!
The hall was dead silent.
Everyone's gazes landed on an azure haired youth.
"Who's this brat? How dare he slander the items of the Tiegan Manor?"
"Eh? Isn't he the son-in-law of the City Lord? "
The people in the hall were either surprised or discussing.
A small amount of people recognized Zhao Feng's identity.
Ding!
Zhao Feng flicked the body of the sword with his finger: "The smelting of the material isn't bad, but the quality of this weapon isn't worth the materials used. It can be said that it's just for show …."
As he spoke, he shook his head, causing everyone to look at him.
"Little brother, what do you mean?"
One of the blacksmiths who had heard of Lin Fan's reputation said indignantly.
"Look, the main material of this sword is Purple Iron Gold. The Purple Iron Gold's True Force conductivity isn't bad, and it's very beautiful. However, its weakness is that its weight and sharpness aren't good enough. This sword's' Purple Iron Gold 'was actually more than a third of its weight. Although it was mixed with Profound Ice Iron and Hundred Refinements Profound Steel, increasing its hardness and sharpness, its weight was still on the low side. It affected its lethality, and the hardness did not reach the ideal level. If it were to clash with a blunt weapon, this sword would break easily. "
After Zhao Feng finished, he couldn't help but shake his head.
In reality, the weakness of this sword wasn't obvious. It was just that its weight was on the low side and its toughness wasn't up to the ideal level.
There was more Purple Iron Gold in it because this sword focused on conducting True Force and increasing its damage. The light weight was because this sword focused on increasing speed.
Furthermore, this sword was placed in the exhibition hall because it was beautiful, so there was more Purple Iron Gold in it.
However, normal people wouldn't be able to see these fine details. After all, this sword's True Force conductivity was strong, its power was shocking, its speed was increased, and its sharpness was also great. It could be said that it was beautiful and had great damage. As for its toughness, it wasn't ideal, but it wasn't bad either.
However, Zhao Feng's eyes were sharp enough to pick out the bones in an egg.
After hearing his explanation, the blacksmith beside him couldn't help but nod his head: "There are indeed some flaws, but they don't cover up the beauty."
"Who's there! Who dares to slander the works of the Tiegan Palace? "
The blacksmiths and apprentices of the Tiegan Palace glared angrily as they charged over.
"Hehe, the great Tiegan Palace only has this much breadth of mind? Only we are allowed to praise them, but not talk about their flaws? "
Zhao Feng laughed coldly and ignored them as he continued:
"This is only one of the reasons. The toughness of this sword is average, and with the addition of Mystic Ice Steel, once it meets a powerful fire attribute weapon, the cold and heat will clash, causing the material of the sword to change shape and even shatter during battle."
"Mystic Ice Steel can increase damage, and after special smelting, it can make the body of the sword as smooth as a mirror, without a single drop of blood. Once again, you're pursuing aesthetics over practicality … What a failure! "
The nearby blacksmiths were dumbfounded as they listened.
If Zhao Feng was speaking nonsense, they would just laugh it off. However, what he said wasn't without reason, and his words reflected his rich knowledge and understanding of weapon forging.
After picking out the flaws of the Purple Iron Sword, Zhao Feng picked up a black iron whip beside him: "Look, this whip is made with Black Refined Soft Steel …"
At that moment, everyone's attention in the hall was attracted by Zhao Feng.
Zhao Feng talked non-stop as he analyzed the materials of each weapon, focusing on the flaws and inadequacies.
The blacksmiths of the Tiegan Palace were all dumbfounded.
Zhao Feng's actions were like finding fault with a bone in an egg.
However, he was able to draw inferences about other cases from one instance and magnify the flaws infinitely.
"How can he know the materials of each weapon so well? Even the proportion and temperature are so precise.
Usually, only a Master or an extremely experienced Old Weapon Refiner would be able to see so much content at a glance … "
One of the blacksmiths couldn't help but take a deep breath.
"Quick! Go tell the three Core Senior Brothers! "
"First Senior Brother is in seclusion, Second Senior Brother is out, and Third Senior Brother seems to be meeting an expert at the True Spirit Realm."
The blacksmiths of the Tiegan Palace were slightly anxious.
The blacksmiths present were completely intimidated by Zhao Feng and didn't have anyone to take out.
What was even more frightening was that Zhao Feng would casually pick up each piece of work and casually point out the materials used and their flaws.
If this continued, the reputation of the Tiegan Palace would be tarnished.
"This guy's probably here to cause trouble?"
The blacksmiths couldn't help but take a deep breath as they realised something.
"Should we kick him out?"
"No! He has the Flooding Willow Token and is the son-in-law of the Flooding Lake City Lord. "
"The Flooding Lake City Lord and Master don't have a good relationship. Could this have been done by the City Lord?"
The Tiegan Palace obviously had experts at the True Spirit Realm, but they didn't know what to do and started to suspect.
This was the territory of the Flooding Lake City and Zhao Feng's identity was different. Behind him was the Flooding Lake City Lord, so they didn't dare to make a move.
More importantly, the flaws of each of Zhao Feng's items were clearly stated and the nearby blacksmiths agreed with him.
If the Tiegan Palace forcefully kicked him out, wouldn't they be guilty?
"Who is it!? Who dares to cause trouble in my Tiegan Palace ~ ~ ~ "
A furious voice descended from the sky accompanied by a powerful True Spirit Realm aura.
This aura was even stronger than the First Elder of the Broken Moon Clan and was close to the True Mystic Rank.
"Master!"
"Tiegan Master!"
The hearts of the people in the hall jumped.
As soon as these words were said.
A red-robed, red-robed, tall figure appeared in the main hall, holding an iron hammer in his hand. His entire body was surrounded by a towering flame that was about three meters tall, looking extremely ferocious.
Everyone in the Flooding Lake City knew that Tiegan Master was famous for his temper.
At this moment, many people didn't even dare to breathe loudly.
"Hehe, Tiegan Master, you're finally willing to come out."
Zhao Feng smiled in his heart as he put down the item in his hand and said slowly: "Master Tiegan, you're a Tiegan Master. I've come this time to represent my Master, the Thousand Hand Grandmaster, to challenge you. "
