Chapter three hundred and ninety seventh material selection
After inviting Ye Guchen back, Gongsun Xiaoyue also returned to the second floor of the attic.
"Hehe, it seems that this forging conference really got an unexpected surprise." Gongsun Xiaoyue giggled and was in a good mood.
"Are you talking about the young man named Chen?" Lu Qinghan's expression remained calm.
She has no interest in forging, so she doesn't care whether the young man named Chen is a forging genius.
"That boy really exceeded my expectations. Only the old men in the family can identify the following materials. Even Shen Tuyuan made two mistakes. He really made me look forward to it." Gongsun
Xiaoyue's bright eyes showed bright light and she clenched her little fists.
"The process of forging involves more than just identifying the materials. Junior sister, let's read it first and then talk about it." Lu Qinghan shook his head and smiled lightly.
She thinks Gongsun Xiaoyue's character is still too reckless.
This was only the first level, so it would be too arbitrary to judge that the young man had a rare forging talent.
In Baozhu Building, the second stage of material selection officially begins.
A waiter removed the stone platforms and replaced them with a huge stone platform.
On the stone platform, there are many metal minerals densely placed.
Some are brilliant, some are golden, some are dark and gloomy, and so on.
The old man who presided over the meeting took a step forward again and said: "The second level, the selection of materials begins."
"Each forger can select three pieces of mineral metal on the stone platform in front of him, and rank them according to the rarity of the three ores. Only the top ten forgers are qualified to compete with Miss Gongsun in the forging competition."
"At the same time, the three ores you choose will also be the main materials for your forging, so what you need to consider is not only the rarity of the materials, but also how well they match each other."
As soon as the old man finished speaking, all the casters present looked solemn and frowned.
This second level is obviously much more difficult than the first level.
Not only do you need a keen eye to choose rarer materials.
And you also have to consider how the materials match each other.
You must know that some rare treasures, when superimposed on each other, will not only not increase their power, but also have conflicting attributes, making the forged magic weapons no different from scrap metal.
Therefore, this level further tests the skills of a caster.
"In those materials, I put a lot of treasures. I wonder if the boy named Chen can choose to identify them?" The person Gongsun Xiaoyue is paying most attention to right now is Ye Guchen.
Next is Shen Tuyuan.
Soon, all the participating casters were surrounding the stone platform and began to select materials.
Shen Tuyuan glanced at the entire stone platform, with a look of confidence on his face.
With this sweep, there were no less than ten rare treasures in his sight.
On the other hand, Ye Guchen, who was on the other side, glanced briefly at the stone platform, then his eyes flickered, thinking about something secretly.
Some casters have already started to select materials.
Shen Tuyuan also stepped forward and selected a piece of seemingly inconspicuous black material with his first hand.
"Hey, why did Mr. Shentu choose such an inconspicuous piece of material?" The casters around him looked sideways, all surprised.
When Gongsun Xiaoyue, who was on the second floor of the attic, saw this, his eyes lit up slightly and he said, "This boy from the Shentu family is quite capable."
"This Shentu Yuan is indeed the one here, besides you, junior sister, who has the most talent for forging." Seeing this, Lu Qinghan nodded secretly.
"May I ask Mr. Shentu, what is this piece of material?" asked a caster on the side.
Since Shen Tuyuan obtained this piece of material, it naturally belongs to him.
So he was not stingy, and said with a hint of pride in his tone: "This material is only recorded in the classics of my Shentu family. It's normal that you don't know it. This thing is called tungsten steel rock. Although it seems strange,
It may look inconspicuous, but it is a rare treasure.”
"It turns out this is tungsten steel rock. I'm really blind."
"Only Mr. Shentu can identify him. We are so ashamed!"
Many foundries shook their heads and felt that they were frogs in the well.
As a forging genius from a super family, Shen Tuyuan indeed has real skills.
"Young Master Shentu is really capable. He is not like someone who just happened to pass the test due to a moment of good luck. Even now at the second test, he is still at a loss." Mrs. Xiao spared no effort to praise Shentu Yuan, while glancing at the person who had never been there before.
The moving Ye Guchen has a strange yin and yang aura.
Because of Ye Guchen's relationship, she was slapped in the face by Gongsun Xiaoyue.
So Mrs. Xiao naturally didn't want to see Ye Guchen show off his blacksmithing talent again.
If Ye Guchen was really appreciated by Gongsun Xiaoyue, how embarrassed would she and Xiao Wanrou be?
Ye Guchen ignored the boring barking and was thinking about the combination of materials.
In this level, as long as you can enter the top ten, you can compete with Gongsun Xiaoyue.
Therefore, Ye Guchen did not need to choose the rarest materials to win first place.
Because when it comes to forging, what matters is the combination of materials, and the rarity is secondary.
After thinking about this, Ye Guchen finally made some movement.
He picked up a fiery red spar.
This mineral is called Huoyan Crystal, which is a kind of crystal formed at the bottom of volcanoes.
Although it is not extremely precious, it is still a rare treasure.
Ye Guchen's every move now will attract the attention of countless people.
So when they saw Ye Guchen choose the Fire Flame Crystal, some casters also had a look of astonishment in their eyes.
"This young man would actually choose Fire Flame Crystal?"
"Although Fire Flame Crystal is rare, it is definitely not the rarest material here. Did he make a mistake?"
"His performance was so amazing in the first level. I thought he would pick some rare materials. I also know these materials."
Immediately, many casters started talking about it.
When Shen Tuyuan saw this, there was a bit of disdain in his eyes, and he sneered: "Maybe you think this fire crystal is very precious because of its beautiful appearance. Ha, it's really superficial."
Shen Tuyuan's hanging heart was completely relieved.
At first, he was really confused about Ye Guchen. After all, not everyone could identify all ten materials correctly.
But Ye Guchen's move made Shen Tuyuan completely relieved.
He's just a kid who got lucky.
Gongsun Xiaoyue, who was on the second floor of the attic, saw Ye Guchen's choice, her face drooped, and she said with a hint of disappointment: "Why would he choose materials like Huoyanjing? Although it is considered precious, it is not
Not the most precious thing among them."
Gongsun Xiaoyue sighed, thinking that he had found a treasure and that an opponent who could truly compete with him would appear.
As a result, as great as the hope is, there will be great disappointment.
"Junior Sister, Senior Sister has long warned you not to be too arbitrary when judging a person. Many people are superficial and have no connotation." Lu Qinghan shook her head slightly.
She didn't know much about casting, so she didn't think Ye Guchen's previous performance was that amazing.
"Oh, let's see what he will choose next." Gongsun Xiaoyue said with a wrinkled face.
However, Ye Guchen's next choice caused even more uproar.
"Is this kid acting recklessly?" It was Gongsun Xiaoyue, her eyebrows stood up, and she became angry again.
