Cen Yue narrowed his eyes and picked up Tang Wulin's form." Follow me.”He wanted to see just how powerful Mang Tian's disciple was.
The so-called testing room was actually a forging room. Of course, the blacksmith's test would be conducted here.
As soon as he entered the forging workshop, Tang Wulin's nervous mood immediately relaxed. The forging equipment here was similar to Mang Tian's workshop. This was the first time he had encountered an environment he was familiar with since he arrived in Eastsea City.
The appraiser was a middle-aged woman. She obviously knew Cen Yue." Master Cen, you personally brought people here to test! I just heard that this child is only nine years old. If it was a little smaller, would he be able to break the president's record?”
"Let's test it first."”
The appraiser nodded and said to Tang Wulin,"There are 15 types of metals here. Choose one of them to refine. I'll give you a score based on the metal you choose and the degree of purification. If you score more than 60 points, you'll be promoted to a rank-1 blacksmith.”
"Yes." Tang Wulin nodded and walked toward the metal rack at the side.
Fifteen types of metals, each one of them was one foot square.
These metals were of different colors and different texture. The Blacksmith's Rank Test might seem simple as it only required one round of refinement, but in reality, it tested many things.
The appraiser didn't tell him what these metals were. This required him to have a sufficient understanding of the various metals. At the same time, he had to choose the metal that he could forge.
The quality of the metal and the effect of purification complemented each other.
Tang Wulin glanced around and recognized all the types of metals. He pondered for a moment before he took out a piece of metal from the rack in the center.
The metal shined with a faint silver light. Seeing his choice, Cen Yue and the appraiser revealed a hint of surprise. They did not expect that Tang Wulin would choose such a metal that was extremely heavy and dense.
"I choose this Heavy Silver." Tang Wulin placed the Heavy Silver on the forging table without making a sound.
Mang Tian had very high requirements for him. One of them was that, other than forging, there must be no sound of metal colliding.
A piece of Heavy Silver that was one foot square actually weighed up to three hundred kilograms. It was extremely heavy, but Cen Yue could tell from Tang Wulin's expression that it was not a strenuous effort.
"Little guy, you're quite strong!" The examiner was also surprised. She was starting to believe that this little guy who wrote that he was only nine years old could really complete the test.
"Masters, may I begin?" Tang Wulin asked.”
"Let's begin. You have one hour. Within an hour, you must try your best to purify this Heavy Silver. The degree to which you can purify it will be the corresponding score.”
"Yes, sir!" Tang Wulin did not think about anything else. He immediately began to operate it skillfully.
He turned on the forging table, raised the temperature, and placed the Heavy Silver into the furnace for roasting. The time taken to refine the metal was also included in the purification time. There was no room for trickery in the blacksmith's ranking test. The Blacksmith's Association had very strict requirements for every blacksmith because once they reached a certain rank, they could take on missions to forge. The products produced would affect the reputation of the Blacksmith's Association.
Tang Wulin did some stretching exercises. At the same time, he took a few deep breaths to adjust his soul power.
The reason why he chose Heavy Silver was not because he wanted to show off, but rather because the last time he had smithed in Glorybound City had been with the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammers. After that incident, he had a very deep understanding of the characteristics of Heavy Silver. The piece of Heavy Silver he chose was very similar in quality to the Heavy Silver he had smithed previously. Under the circumstances where he was excited by the prospect, he naturally made his choice.
However, he still remembered Mang Tian's words. He was not allowed to use the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammers unless he was forging alone. He was not allowed to reveal the Thousand Refined Heavy Silver Hammers to outsiders before he turned fifteen.
Tang Wulin's breathing gradually became even as he looked at the temperature of the metal displayed on the forging table. His gaze also became focused.
Cen Yue stood at the side and did not give any advice. He had been paying attention to the child in front of him, especially his eyes.
When he saw that Tang Wulin's eyes had begun to focus, he couldn't help but praise in his heart. Mang Tian, oh Mang Tian, you've picked up a treasure.
Among the blacksmiths, Cen Yue was the one who advocated focusing on forging the most. He did not have any outstanding talent. He had entered this industry because he liked it. It could be said that he had walked step by step until today. Relying on his passion and focus on forging, he had earned himself a place in the world of forging.
Tang Wulin was only a nine-year-old child! For a nine-year-old child to be so focused meant that he really knew how to forge. Cen Yue's impression of this child immediately improved.
Tang Wulin swiftly pressed a button with his left hand. The Heavy Silver that had just reached the right temperature for forging slowly emerged from the forging table.
The appraiser quickly wrote something on his record.
As the appraiser of the Blacksmith's Ranking Test, she had been through many evaluations. From Tang Wulin's small detail, she could tell that this was not the child's first time forging Heavy Silver. However, was Heavy Silver something that an unregistered blacksmith could forge?
Tang Wulin began!
His arms shook slightly on both sides of his body, and two streaks of black light appeared in his palms at the same time. They were the pair of Thousand Refined tungsten hammers. The hammer in his left hand lightly tapped on the Heavy Silver, making a "ding ding" sound.
Cen Yue's gaze swiftly landed on Tang Wulin's ears. He could clearly see that both of Tang Wulin's ears quivered slightly.
He was listening, listening to the feedback of the metal. Good kid!
At this moment, Tang Wulin swung his first hammer. He swung the hammer in his right hand at lightning speed, and the air in the forging room instantly became tense. With a low whistling sound, the tungsten steel hammer smashed heavily on the edge of the Heavy Silver in the next moment.
"Bang!" The tungsten steel hammer bounced up, and the Heavy Silver slightly caved in.
Tang Wulin's beautiful eyes lit up almost at the same time. He swung the hammer in his left hand one after another.”There was another explosion.
The two explosions caused a series of echoes to echo in the blacksmith's ears. Cen Yue's eyes widened. This was…a Thousand Refined tungsten hammer?
