After the voice sounded, old man Dong Fu had finished forging, his speed extremely fast!
It had to be said that many people here could forge ling tools, but to complete it in fifteen minutes, that was impossible!
Old man Dong Fu's gaze swept across the crowd and found that many people had serious expressions. They started to close their eyes and prepare for the forging steps. But his gaze quickly landed on a handsome youth. That youth was standing with a slight smile, as though he was completely confident, completely different from the others.
"Did you understand? "
Old man Dong Fu's interest rose. That little guy's cultivation wasn't high, but as a blacksmith, the requirement for strength wasn't high, so he became curious.
And that person was Lin Ling!
Everyone was working hard to prepare for the test. Only Lin Ling was indifferent. Naturally, he was like a crane in a flock of chickens.
"No!"
Lin Ling said with a smile, as if nothing had happened.
Old man Dong Fu's eyes lit up. This little guy was abnormally strange. He wasn't arrogant or humble. That was fine, but he seemed to have absolute confidence.
"Could it be that you can forge a better product than this old man?" Old man Dong Fu smiled and asked. He was slightly expectant. In this world, there were many geniuses hidden in the world!
"Apologies, I'm not a blacksmith!"
But in the next moment, Lin Ling's words made old man Dong Fu feel like he had eaten a fly.
He wasn't a blacksmith, but he pretended. Facing him, he was neither arrogant nor humble. He had almost tricked him!
"You little brat!"
Old man Dong Fu was very knowledgeable, but it was the first time he had seen such a freak. Many people in the crowd opened their eyes and couldn't help but laugh.
"Old man Dong Fu, this person is just making up the numbers. He isn't a blacksmith at all. In my opinion, we should kick him out of the compound to prevent him from losing the face of us blacksmiths!" Ouyang Chen opened his eyes and said confidently.
"That's right!"
The other people also agreed. Others were preparing for the forging process, and Lin Ling was calmly watching the show. It made them feel deeply humiliated.
"You, you're treating the compound as your own home again!"
Everyone reprimanded him, but Lin Ling didn't care at all. He looked at Ouyang Chen happily and contentedly.
Ouyang Chen opened his mouth but couldn't speak. But he wasn't willing to be humiliated by Lin Ling and shouted angrily, "With Elder Dong Fu here, how can this junior be proud? But at least I have the confidence to complete the mission that Elder Dong Fu gave me. At least I'm a blacksmith so I have the right to chase you away!"
"That's right. We're blacksmiths, and you're nothing. Can you not scram?"
Voices sounded one after another, reprimanding Lin Ling, but old man Dong Fu was silent. In reality, he also wanted to drive away that little freak, but he was respected and couldn't put down his face to drive him away. After all, this was a gathering of blacksmiths. What right did an outsider have to come? Moreover, he looked at everyone as if it had nothing to do with him.
"I'm not a blacksmith, but I am an appraiser!"
Lin Ling's expression remained calm as he spoke.
"Appraiser?"
Everyone stilled and then even crazier laughter sounded. They had heard of alchemists, blacksmiths, and even ancient array masters, but this was the first time they'd heard of an appraiser.
"What is an appraiser?"
Even Ping Er's expression was blank. She had never heard of it.
In reality, Xuanpeng Province didn't have any appraisers, and this name was given by Lin Ling himself. Today, his purpose in coming here was to attract old man Dong Fu's attention. Naturally, he wouldn't take the normal path!
"Hehe, there are more and more frivolous juniors these days. Appraiser, what are you appraising?"
Old man Dong Fu also laughed, feeling that Lin Ling was even more frivolous and impatient than he had imagined.
"Appraising whether a treasure is good or bad!"
Lin Ling nodded. His serious appearance caused everyone's laughter to become even crazier. He wasn't even a blacksmith and he wanted to appraise whether a treasure was good or bad?
"Today, I'm in a good mood so I'm too lazy to argue. Get out of here!" Old man Dong Fu was too lazy to say anything more.
"The Evil Warding Jade Axe is a multi-colored jade. If you dig out a corner, you can see that there is a small piece of jade that contains fire element spirit energy. Even though it is very small and doesn't have much of an effect, the martial artist who uses it will inject spirit energy. That will consume a bit more spirit energy. This is not good for battle. As a blacksmith, you must strive for perfection. This is a responsibility to the martial artist!"
Lin Ling's feet didn't move as he spoke lightly.
"Nonsense!"
Ouyang Chen smiled disdainfully. The others were the same. They didn't believe it at all.
Of course, even old man Dong Fu didn't believe it. He had a lot of experience. He could easily obtain a spirit tool grade weapon. How could it have a flaw? That little guy was actually appraising his own work. He really didn't know his own strength!
"Of course, the axe handle is too short and is not suitable for people with big hands. This is also one of the flaws!"
Lin Ling said again. His voice was calm, but he was at ease as though he was a true grandmaster of forging.
In reality, he really didn't understand forging, but after his Eye of Time had transformed, he had become even calmer. He could find the flaws in many treasures and even copy profound martial arts. Before, when he had been studying the Celestial Fish Diagram, millions of Celestial Fish had swam and formed a fish diagram. Even if there was a change in the tail of a fish, he could detect it. That insight was extremely terrifying!
Therefore, when he saw old man Dong Fu's materials, he instantly found the flaw.
This was the appraiser in his heart.
He didn't know how to forge, but he knew how to appraise!
"If Elder doesn't believe it, you can try it yourself. Inject spirit energy into the axe and then feel it!" Lin Ling said again, "Next, look at the body of the axe. There is a flaw that is smaller than a hair. If that flaw is filled, then try to inject spirit energy!"
"You speak so well. I have to say, you have the potential to be a swindler!"
The old man Dong Fu touched his breathing. He still didn't believe Lin Ling. If it wasn't that he was in a good mood today, he would have already slapped that pretentious brat to death!
And now, the other wanted to try, then he would try!
He picked up the axe and poured spiritual energy into it. The entire axe released a terrifying pressure, which made Lin Ling click his tongue in wonder. "What a powerful weapon!"
He was certain that if this weapon was given to him, his strength would increase by ten percent. That weapon would be even stronger than the Tyrannical Song Sword!
"This guy!"
Many people frowned. They could see that Lin Ling was staring at the axe like a country bumpkin. It was clearly the first time he had seen a treasure of this level. But Lin Ling had spoken so clearly before. Was he purposely mystifying himself? Or was he relying on his own strength?
The old man Dong Fu also heard Lin Ling's words. His beard fluttered. This little guy was even weirder than he had imagined.
After injecting spirit energy, he didn't feel anything was wrong. Then he carefully examined the axe. His eyes instantly focused. On the body of the axe, there was a flaw that was smaller than a hair. Even though there was no weapon that was perfect, but that flaw that was smaller than a hair instantly made old man Dong Fu feel uncomfortable!
Elites sought the best. As one of the ten great blacksmiths, he naturally couldn't allow this to happen!
