On the side of the Weapon Refining Guild, until Ye Bufan and others had completely gone away, Wen Ding still stood there in a daze for a long time without regaining consciousness.
In comparison, Zhao Chengqi was much calmer and had returned to normal at this moment.
"Brother, are you okay?"
Zhao Chengqi pulled his sleeve.
Wen Ding woke up as if from a dream, and then shook his head with a wry smile: "Old man, I am so reckless that I want to accept someone as my disciple.
With his level of weapon refining, even the old man can't compare to me, so what qualifications do I have to be his master?"
Zhao Chengqi said: "The great elder is serious. Although this young man's talent is very extraordinary, after all, he is only refining low-level magic weapons, so there is nothing obvious about it."
"This is different. You can see the big from the small. Even though the person is refining a low-level magic weapon, you can still see the skill of the refining weapon."
Wen Ding stretched out his hand and pointed to the five iron swords in his hand: "Forging five top-quality magical weapons in such a short period of time is something that neither you nor I have.
In my opinion, the only one who can compare with him is the Kunlun Weapon God Lu Chaozong from many years ago, and there is no other one in the world."
"this……"
Zhao Chengqi hesitated and said, "Did the Great Elder exaggerate? Lu Chaozong's talent for refining weapons is the best in the world, and no one can compare with it for so many years."
"I am confident that I will not be mistaken."
Wen Ding shook his head, as if he remembered something, looked around and asked, "Where is that little guy?"
The young man next to him stepped forward and said: "Great Elder, he has left. It seems that he went to the registration area for the weapon refining competition."
"No, even if such a person cannot be accepted as a disciple, I still have to pay him a visit."
After saying that, Wen Ding hurried towards the registration office, followed by Zhao Chengqi.
Ye Bufan finished handling the registration matters and was about to leave when he turned around and bumped into two old men rushing towards him.
Looking at the excited Wen Ding, he smiled bitterly: "Old man, I really can't accept you as my teacher."
"I know, I know, I was reckless just now, old man."
Wen Ding looked apologetic, "Little brother, I just want to get acquainted with you this time. I don't know your surname."
"oh!"
Seeing that the old man was not asking him to become his disciple, but was so polite, Ye Bufan smiled and said, "Junior Ye Bufan!"
"What's wrong with juniors? My little brother's skill in weapon refining is worthy of being my equal. Let's talk about it as equals."
Wen Ding said boldly, "Brother Ye is probably not a local. I wonder if he has found a place to live. Why not come to my humble home? Let's talk by candlelight at night."
"If that's the case, then I won't bother you."
Ye Bufan was not a hypocritical person. Since the old man was sincere in his friendship, he did not refuse, and the group returned to the Weapon Refining Masters Guild again.
Wen Ding arranged accommodation for everyone, and then happily took Ye Bufan to his room, and chatted excitedly with Zhao Chengqi and the others.
The more the three of them chatted, the more excited they became. As time went by, the two old men discovered that this young man's knowledge and attainments in weapon refining were definitely not inferior to theirs.
Although Ye Bufan is proficient in weapon refining, he does not know much about the relevant knowledge about weapon refining in Kunlun Continent, so he also learned a lot from the two old men.
He asked: "Two seniors, I wonder how the Weapon Refining Masters Guild divides the attainment levels of weapon refining?"
Wen Ding said: "We divide the magic weapons into five levels, which is the fifth level test you have experienced before.
Then comes the spiritual energy, which is divided into four levels: low-grade, medium-grade, high-grade and top-grade, corresponding to the sixth, seventh, eighth and ninth levels respectively.
If you can refine the best spiritual weapons, you will definitely be the pinnacle figure in the world of weapon refining.
Lucheng is famous in Kunlun Continent for its weapon refining, but only one person can refine ninth-level spiritual weapons."
"oh!"
Ye Bufan nodded and asked again, "Is the ninth level the highest level? What's above this?"
"Of course the ninth level is not the highest. There are ten levels above this."
Zhao Chengqi said, "Those who can refine artifacts are tenth-level weapon refiners, but this is not easy. In the past hundred years, there has been only one Kunlun weapon god, Lu Chaozong, in the entire Kunlun continent."
Wen Ding sighed with emotion: "When I talked about the Kunlun Weapon God, I couldn't help but think of the Weapon Refining Competition that year.
At that time, Lu Chaozong rode Juechen, crushing the strong men from all sides, and finally refined the divine weapon Dragon-Slaying Sword, which established the Kunlun Weapon God's status in one fell swoop.
It’s ridiculous that someone is now letting the wind out, saying that the Kunlun Artifact God was cheating at that time, how is this possible, my eyes are not something that can deceive just anyone.”
Zhao Chengqi followed up and said: "You are right. Although the Lu family is known as the first family of weapon refiners, the only one who can admire us is Lu Chaozong."
Wen Ding sighed: "It's a pity that the Kunlun Weapon God is too upright and not good at scheming. He was framed by a villain, and he still doesn't know whether he is alive or dead."
Ye Bufan did not directly reveal his identity and said: "How did you two know that the Kunlun Weapon God was framed?"
Wen Ding said: "I have interacted with the Kunlun Artifact God many times, so I naturally know what kind of person he is and how he could do such a thing."
"That's right. Even though the incident is well known, I still don't believe it.
First of all, Lu Chaozong was an upright man. He was immersed in refining weapons without any distractions. He was not a lustful person.
Secondly, if you don’t have what kind of woman you want as the Kunlun Weapon God, how could you do such a stupid thing?”
"Actually, many people know that the person who framed the Kunlun Weapon God is Lu Chaoyang, the current head of the Lu family, but no one dares to say it."
Wen Ding said this and looked at General Ye Bufan with concern, "Brother Ye, are you going to sign up for the weapon refining competition this time?"
Ye Bufan didn't hide anything: "Yes, I have signed up."
Wen Ding showed a worried look: "Brother Ye, you must be careful, because Lu Chaoyang is definitely extremely treacherous and cruel, even his own brother can scheme against him.
It's okay if you are mediocre, but if you perform too well, you may be in trouble."
Ye Bufan said: "Great Elder, how do you say this?"
Wen Ding said: "This weapon refining competition is handled by Lu Chaoyang. If I read it correctly, he has two main purposes.
First, although he now sits in the position of the head of the family, the Lu family has always been based on refining weapons, and the title of Kunlun Weapon God has always been on Lu Chaozong's head.
This is extremely detrimental to him. It may not matter in the short term, but over time it may affect his position as head of the family.
So this time we held a weapon-refining competition, which was very high-sounding, and called on the weapon-refiners from all over Kunlun Continent to participate.
But in fact, he has regarded the throne of the Kunlun Weapon God as his own, and will never allow others to get involved.
Once my little brother's skill in weapon refining is too high and he feels threatened, this guy will use any means."
"Lu Chaoyang wants to covet the title of Kunlun Weapon God. Does he have the ability?"
Ye Bufan frowned slightly, obviously this was unexpected.
In his opinion, the head of the Lu family is a sinister villain who is good at calculations and should not have that strength.
