When everyone heard this, they were all intimidated by Dongfang Wuxiang!
Who would have thought that the Donglin Kingdom's iron smelting techniques would develop so quickly?
Hongyuan Emperor immediately understood why Dongfang Wuxiang had gifted him this sword.
Dongfang Wuxiang was using this sword to promote the Donglin Kingdom's iron smelting techniques and forging techniques. On one hand, he was demonstrating the military prowess of the Donglin Kingdom, and on the other, he was promoting the might of the Donglin Kingdom.
He also wanted to use this sword to tell everyone just how powerful the Donglin Kingdom was. This would serve as a deterrent to the Chu Kingdom.
Seeing this sword, Hongyuan Emperor felt very uncomfortable in his heart, and his expression became very ugly.
If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have accepted this gift.
Chu Xuanchen, on the other hand, was on high alert as he looked at this sword.
This was obviously a peerless sword. Who would have thought that the Donglin Kingdom's iron smelting techniques would be so powerful?
The most important thing in a war was the soldiers, and weapons were the hands of the soldiers. If the soldiers didn't have good weapons, then how could they win a war?
Most weapons were forged from iron.
If one's iron smelting techniques were good, then they would be able to forge more durable and sharper weapons. If one's iron smelting techniques were not developed, then there would be no good weapons.
Without good weapons, it was easy to lose a war, and the kingdom could be bullied at any time.
Donglin Kingdom's iron smelting techniques were developing at such a rapid pace, but the Chu Kingdom's iron smelting techniques were still stuck at the level they had been for over a decade.
It looked like the Chu Kingdom had to work hard to catch up. They had to work hard to improve their iron smelting techniques so that they wouldn't fall behind.
At this moment, King Of Zhao couldn't help but stand up in defiance. "Crown Prince, you said that your Dragon Sparrow Sword is a divine weapon, and that it's a hundred times more powerful than normal treasured swords? Wang doesn't believe you. "
Dongfang Wuxiang sneered, "If Your Highness doesn't believe me, then you can use your sword to compete with my Dragon Sparrow Sword!"
King Of Zhao replied coldly, "Sure, no problem."
Dongfang Wuxiang looked toward the warrior. "Ah Bu, you spar with him."
"Yes." Saying this, Ah Bu gripped the treasured sword firmly. Rays of cold light instantly shot out from the sword.
King Of Zhao looked toward Hongyuan Emperor and saluted. "Father, please allow me to bring my sword into the palace to spar with him."
According to the rules, the swords couldn't be brought into the palace.
They had to remove their swords before entering the palace. Therefore, if King Zhao wanted to use a sword to compete with Abu, he had to ask Hongyuan Emperor first.
Emperor Hongyuan looked coldly at the Dragon Sparrow Sword before nodding. "Approved."
"Thank you, Imperial Father." After Zhao Wang finished speaking, he called Ah Zhen out of the hall to get his sword.
Yun Ruoyue looked at the Dragon Sparrow Sword to find that it was indeed very sharp, and it was extremely gorgeous and intricate.
However, no matter how sharp it was, it was still an ancient sword. It was far from being as powerful as a modern military knife.
Suddenly, she remembered that she had a Swiss Army knife in her medical storage. She had bought this for outdoor expeditions.
The Swiss Army knife was made of alloy steel. It was sturdy, durable, and very sharp. It could cut the throat with a single cut.
The forging skills and materials of the ancient era were inferior to those of the modern era. Thus, no matter how sturdy Dongfang Wuxiang's Dragon Sparrow Sword was, it was still inferior to her Swiss Army knife.
Thinking of this, her divine sense moved, and the Swiss Army knife in the space changed into her sleeve.
Then, she took it out and observed it surreptitiously.
"What are you looking at?" At this moment, Chu Xuanchen's low voice sounded beside her ear.
As Chu Xuanchen spoke, he saw the small knife in Yun Ruoyue's hand. He was taken aback. "Yue 'er, what kind of knife is that?"
"Hand, a scalpel. I use it for surgery." Yun Ruoyue didn't know how to explain the origins of this military knife to Chu Xuanchen, so she simply referred to it as a scalpel.
Furthermore, she couldn't carry large knives in this palace, but she could carry a scalpel. Thus, it was better to disguise this military knife as a scalpel.
Chu Xuanchen looked at the knife in confusion. "This scalpel seems different from the ones you used before. Did your master give it to you as well?"
Yun Ruoyue nodded hurriedly. "Yes. My master is very powerful. She used to like to travel all over the world. I don't know where she got this knife. However, I can tell you that even though this scalpel is small and short, it's a lot sharper and sturdier than Dongfang Wuxiang's Dragon Sparrow Sword. If I were to use this scalpel against Dongfang Wuxiang's Dragon Sparrow Sword, then Dongfang Wuxiang's Dragon Sparrow Sword is no match for this scalpel. "
"Really? Such a small knife is more powerful than the Dragon Sparrow Sword? Show it to Wang, "Chu Xuanchen said curiously.
Yun Ruoyue passed the military knife from under the table to Chu Xuanchen. "You're someone who knows how to use knives. If you don't believe me, you can try using it!" she whispered.
Chu Xuanchen took the scalpel from under the table and gently slid it across the table leg. Instantly, a deep slit appeared on the table leg.
He didn't even use any strength, yet the slit was already so deep. If he had used his internal energy, wouldn't this scalpel be able to easily slice through the table leg?
It could be seen that this scalpel was really amazing.
Moreover, based on his touch and perception, he found that the scalpel was very tough. It was very sturdy at first glance.
If the Chu Nation could mass-produce this kind of sword, then wouldn't they be invincible and omnipotent?
With this in mind, he passed the military knife to Yun Ruoyue. "Yue 'er, you've always been very knowledgeable. Do you know how this scalpel is forged? If you know the method, Wang can order people to mass-produce it. Only then will the Chu Nation's blacksmithing technique improve. "
"I know," Yun Ruoyue replied. "However, it's quite difficult to forge a scalpel of this quality. It requires the best mix of various minerals and materials. Furthermore, the raw materials are not easy to find. Our current blacksmithing technique can't keep up. However, it's quite simple to forge a weapon more powerful than the Dragon Sparrow Sword!"
"Really? It can be more powerful than the Dragon Sparrow Sword? As long as it's more powerful than the Dragon Sparrow Sword. "Chu Xuanchen's eyes were filled with surprise.
Yun Ruoyue nodded. "Of course. The Dragon Sparrow Sword is indeed a good sword with our current blacksmithing technique. However, it's still far inferior to the weapon I want to forge. However, we need large amounts of raw materials, such as iron ore and carbon. Only then can we forge the weapon. You'll have to send people to find these materials. "
She was a medical student and had studied physics and chemistry. Naturally, she knew how to combine the chemical elements to forge a sturdy and durable sword.
"Alright," Chu Xuanchen replied. "Wang will send people to do this when we get back."
If the Chu Nation wanted to develop, then it couldn't be complacent. It had to be constantly vigilant and work hard. Otherwise, it would fall behind.
If it fell behind, then it would be attacked. The country would be plundered, and the people would suffer.
He was well aware of this. However, Emperor Hongyuan didn't care about this. Emperor Hongyuan only cared about living a peaceful life and didn't give him too much power.
He didn't have enough power and was constantly under the thumb of others. He couldn't do much for the people and couldn't do much for them.
Therefore, he felt helpless at times. He could only watch helplessly as the foundation of the Chu Clan's ancestors declined day by day and was on the verge of collapse.
