Qin Shuo stood in front of the forging platform. He rolled up his sleeves. This was the second time. He didn't need to be familiar with the feel anymore. He bent down and picked up the mud bucket, sending a handful of spiritual power over.
Mortal forging does not require spiritual power, but spiritual forging does. A good blacksmith does not necessarily have to have high spiritual power, but having a certain amount of spiritual power is the foundation for becoming a spiritual blacksmith.
Qin Shuo let the large ball of mold mud fly up into the air and land on the forging platform. He wanted to show off his talent and there was no reservation in operating it.
From the mold mud coming out to flying up, from flying to being thrown off, not a drop of mud water fell during the whole process, which shows the fineness of the clay.
For Qin Shuo, this is as simple as eating and breathing.
But to the onlookers, it was amazing.
"This kid doesn't seem to have much muscles, but he is very good at using his spiritual power."
"Let's take a look at it first. It's just the beginning. I think this mold clay is relatively viscous and doesn't have much water, so it's easier for him to operate."
The uncle gently said "Come on" to Qin Shuo,
The master's back bent down from the back of the chair, and he seemed to be a little interested.
The starting point of spiritual forging is mold making. Mold making is to use mold clay to shape the basic shape of the iron according to the requirements of the forging target.
Subsequently, there are adjustments, smelting, casting, demoulding, hammering, quenching, scraping, polishing, decoration, assembly, and sharpening. Each step requires the injection of spiritual power, and according to the specifically built equipment, spiritual power channels and amplifications are laid out
ripple.
Although gold and iron have not yet been touched in the mold-making process, it is the foundation of the entire process. Whether spiritual forging is successful or not can be roughly understood by just looking at the mold-making process.
A qualified spiritual blacksmith completes the process layout when making molds, while an outstanding blacksmith completes the structure of the spiritual energy channel at the beginning of mold making.
Qin Shuo just completed the structure,
But the applicants couldn't understand it, and even the invigilator only had a clue.
The process of making molds requires planning, stacking and shaping, but Qin Shuo only needs to shape,
He puts one hand on the mold clay and wipes it from bottom to top. As soon as his palm passes, the mold will appear perfectly.
His initial operation made the audience look forward to it, but with this hand application, only the bottom of the mold was exposed, and some people let out an "oooh".
"Hello, sir!"
"Good morning, sir!"
A voice of greeting came from the door of the blacksmith shop,
And upon hearing the title "Master", everyone's attention was attracted.
The invigilator stood up and adjusted his apron. It was too late to get dressed, but he also took a semi-wet towel and quickly wiped his face.
The person who came was a man in his sixties. His beard and hair were all white, but he was very energetic, but there was a bit of unspeakable gloom between his eyebrows.
People call him Lao Ye, so naturally he is Lao Ye, the contemporary head of the Nalan family, Nalan Jingxiong.
Not all high-ranking people have kind-hearted intentions. Nalan Jingxiong seems to be the kind of person who is not easy to get along with. He turns a deaf ear to others' greetings to him. His eyes fall on the somewhat messy shop floor and he frowns deeply.
Nalan Jingxiong didn't speak, his eyes spoke. As long as he looked at the place, the shop assistants and masters were busy cleaning it up.
Then, Nalan Jingxiong came to the crowd for the assessment.
Then, Qin Shuo sighed.
The apprenticeship assessment of the Nalan family gave Qin Shuo a bad feeling. The whole process never went smoothly.
And at the end, when he was about to show off what he had learned, another gatekeeper boss appeared that he could not get past.
Yes, Nalan Jingxiong is the Fusion Realm man that Qin Shuo saw in the dark alley. He was also the one who attempted to kill Qin Shuo from behind after his affair was discovered by Qin Shuo.
Nalan Jingxiong never looked away after seeing Qin Shuo, and there was unabashed amusement in his eyes.
Qin Shuo put away the spiritual power in his hand and said "Hello, Sir" to Nalan Jingxiong like a store clerk.
Nalan Jingxiong asked: "Do you still recognize me?"
Qin Shuo knew he couldn't escape, so he replied: "I understand."
"Then why are you still here?"
"As for the assessment, since it has come and gone, it must be completed. Don't you need talents? You should give it a chance."
Nalan Jingxiong snorted, his playful smile disappeared, and there was a sharpness in his eyes: "No need."
After a few simple words, everyone was shocked to find that Qin Shuo and the master actually knew each other.
But this acquaintance does not seem to be a friendly encounter. As the head of the Nalan family, Nalan Jingxiong has an obvious hostility towards an applicant who is not even an apprentice.
Nalan Jingxiong asked the invigilator: "Did you call this?"
The invigilator waved his hand hurriedly: "I don't know him, he signed up by himself."
Nalan Jingxiong asked: "Do you also want this kind of stuff?"
The invigilator glared at Qin Shuo fiercely. He really didn't understand how this kid got into trouble with the master.
But Qin Shuo was provoked, but he still insisted on coming for the assessment.
The assessment was just an assessment, and you still had to come to his place.
The invigilator was stabbed inexplicably. Thinking about it, he felt that he was wronged, so he yelled at Qin Shuo.
"roll!"
The moment Qin Shuo learned about Nalan Jingxiong's identity, he knew that he was hopeless in the examination. Nalan Jingxiong seemed to resent having his dirty deeds seen by others.
Qin Shuo cursed in his heart: "If you don't want to be seen, don't cause trouble on the street. You come here to do it in broad daylight. If you are seen, you kill and drive people away. Aren't you deceiving others?"
Nalan Jingxiong had tried to kill him before, but he probably no longer had that idea, but it was impossible for Qin Shuo to stay at Nalan's house any longer.
Qin Shuo was also a little angry. He said: "I will refund the fees. My assessment has not started yet and I have not used your materials."
If it were an ordinary boss, this little money would have to be refunded to Qin Shuo. This is face and pattern.
But Nalan Jingxiong said: "But you wasted our time."
Qin Shuo was not convinced. He wanted to argue again, but the uncle kept winking at him in the audience.
Uncle still means that, there are some people that they can't play with.
Qin Shuo is really not afraid of Nalan Jingxiong. Isn't he in the Fusion Realm? There are two bodyguards in the Inspiration Realm beside him.
But he didn't want to implicate his uncle, so he retreated from the forging bench with a dark face.
People have no hatred towards Qin Shuo, and they shouldn't make irresponsible remarks about Qin Shuo, but Qin Shuo offended the master, so it was inevitable for everyone to complain.
"I don't have much ability, but I am very good at causing trouble."
"What kind of sharp eyesight does he have to offend the master?"
"He doesn't want to be a blacksmith in Chubeicheng anymore, I said so."
"Nonsense, if you offend Master Nalan, how can he get anything good to eat?"
The uncle shook his head and sighed. He actually liked Qin Shuo very much.
But Qin Shuo can really only go so far.
Not only could she not be a blacksmith, he could not even stay in Chu Beicheng.
