If I kill ghosts, I will become stronger: Invincibility starts with breathing

Chapter 381 The final examination is over
At 10:5 am on October 7th, Luya woke up naturally, and then he left his dormitory and went to the cafeteria to have breakfast.

At 8:25, Lu Yao had already arrived at the assessment site.

The subject of this assessment is the refining subject, and the assessment venue is the public training ground.

In the center of the public training ground, there are 30 positions, and each position has a casting furnace and a one-meter-high stone table.

Foundry furnaces are of stepless premium quality.

Students are allowed to bring their own rune pens and casting hammers.

When Lu Yao came to the training ground, almost all the candidates looked at him.

In the whole grade, Lu Yao's reputation is quite big.

"He is here, he is Lu Yao."

"I know that he is not only the No. 1 in our grade, but he can now forge weapons for the elementary level of humans, which is really amazing."

"This time he participated in the assessment, he should also plan to forge human-level weapons, right?"

"He brought two kinds of mineral materials, so he must want to create a human-level weapon. He is really confident."

The materials were also brought by the students themselves. Except for Lu Yao, the other students only brought one kind of mineral material.

Their goal is only to successfully forge stepless weapons.

On the stone table in the training ground, the names of the candidates were marked. Lu Yao found the place where his name was marked. He put the casting hammer, rune pen and mineral materials he brought on the stone table.

"It's the second grade now, and the assessment should be more difficult. I don't know what kind of rules this time will be." Lu Yao thought to himself.

In the final assessment of the previous semester, the requirements for passing the refining subject were not high, and it was not necessary to successfully forge weapons, as long as a certain step could be completed.

But in the second grade, everyone's casting level has improved, and I believe the passing requirements this time are also higher.

The candidates present all seemed a little nervous.

About 20 minutes later, a middle-aged man with a beard came to the training ground.

All eyes were on him, and everyone knew that this must be the invigilator for this assessment.

The assessment teacher came to the front position in front of everyone.

He held the candidate list for this time in his hand.

"Students, what you are about to participate in is the assessment of the refining subject this time." The invigilator announced loudly.

"Next, I will announce the rules for an assessment subject. Please listen carefully and understand."

"In the assessment of the refining subject, you need to prepare the materials yourself. Of course, you can also use the casting equipment provided by the academy, or you can use your own casting equipment."

"The time for this assessment is three hours, starting at 9 o'clock and ending at 12 o'clock noon."

"The passing score for our subject is 60 points. As long as you can create a stepless primary weapon within the specified time, then you can get a passing score."

"The higher the quality and rank of the weapon you make, the higher the score."

"Every time a small level is raised, the score will increase by 20 points."

"For example, a weapon of no-rank intermediate quality is worth 80 points, and a weapon of no-rank high quality is worth 100 points."

"And every time you increase a big rank, the score will increase by 50 points. For example, the weapon of the human level is 150 points."

"There is no cap on the total score."

"According to the dinner time of your casting weapons, there are bonus points between 20 and 50 points. The shorter the time it takes to cast weapons, the more extra points you will get."

"If you have finished casting the weapons, please raise your hands, I will come to you, check your casting success, and record your casting results on the list."

"Everyone, do you understand the rules?"

Everyone nodded, and some candidates were already showing embarrassment.

Not every candidate can successfully forge a weapon.

Although some candidates have successfully forged fifth-level primary weapons, they cannot guarantee that they will be able to forge successfully every time, and occasionally they will make mistakes.

So after the teacher announced the assessment rules, everyone became even more nervous. This time the rules were more difficult than the last one. After all, it was to create a complete weapon.

"Sure enough, as I expected before, the assessment rules this time are more difficult, and a complete weapon needs to be built, but it doesn't have much impact on me." Lu Yao thought to himself.

"Anyway, my current goal is to create a human-level primary weapon."

"Now my casting level has stabilized at the elementary level of the human level, and it is not a big problem for me to create a human level weapon."

"This time the teacher requested that the weapon be built within three hours, which is not a big problem."

Lu Yao has been able to complete the casting of a primary human-level weapon in about two and a half hours.

"Now that everyone has understood the rules, I will announce the start of the assessment." The assessment teacher announced loudly.

The moment the teacher announced the start, all the candidates put the mineral materials into the casting furnace almost at the same time.

Lu Yao is no exception.

He put two different mineral materials into the casting furnace at the same time, and then began to output his blood power, the ground fire of the casting furnace was ignited, and the temperature began to rise slowly.

Under the effect of high temperature, the two mineral materials are rapidly softened by calcination.

When it was calcined to a certain extent, Lu Yao took out two kinds of mineral materials, and then picked up the casting hammer on the table.

The power of his blood was integrated into the casting hammer in an instant, and the outside of the casting hammer was covered with a layer of bloody air.

With the blessing of Qi and blood, the casting hammer can exert a stronger striking force.

"Boom boom boom!"

"Dong dong!"

Lu Yao began to beat the two kinds of mineral materials continuously. During the process of Lu Yao's continuous beating, the two mineral materials were rapidly fused, and the impurities in the materials were also removed.

After the temperature of the two mineral materials cooled down, Lu Yao would put the two mineral materials into the casting furnace again to continue the calcination.

Then take it out and beat it.

After the steps of calcination and hammering were repeated several times, the two mineral materials were finally fused together, and the mineral materials were also hammered into the shape of a weapon.

This time, the weapon Lu Yao wanted to build was a long sword.

This is also the type of weapon that more than half of the candidates present are planning to build.

Lu Yao has forged long swords the most, and is also the most familiar with the casting process of this weapon.

When the shape of the weapon was formed, Lu Yao put the weapon into the casting furnace for calcination. After the calcination was successful, he picked up the rune pen on the table, and then started the inscription of the rune combination.

A white light began to flash, and disappeared within a few seconds, which represented that the first combination of runes had been engraved successfully.

He didn't stop, and immediately engraved the second rune combination, and the white light appeared again, representing the second rune combination, which was also successfully engraved.

Then came the third combination of runes. The duration of the white light was shorter, but the third combination of runes was also engraved successfully.

He felt that his blood power was still sufficient, and it seemed that he could still try to engrave the fourth rune combination.

But Lu Yao did not choose to do this.

This is not an ordinary time, this is an exam time.

In order to succeed in the assessment, he still only inscribed three combinations of runes, and then stopped engraving.

After the combination of three runes is successfully inscribed, it means that the most difficult step of the weapon casting process has been completed, and the remaining steps have become easier.

Lu Yao put the weapon engraved with the combination of runes into the casting furnace, and after the calcination was successful, he began to output his energy and blood into the weapon for warming.

After the temperature of the weapon cools down, it will be put into the casting furnace and continue to be calcined.

Then take it out for warming.

The steps of calcination and warming need to be carried out more than three times, and a weapon is truly successfully forged.

"Success!" Lu Yao breathed a sigh of relief, and then raised his right hand.

He is not the first casting success.

In front of him, 5 students have succeeded in casting, and 4 students have failed in casting.

After the assessment teacher saw Lu Yao raised his hand, he came to him.

"Are you a low-level human-level weapon?" The assessment teacher was a little surprised. It is very remarkable to be able to forge a low-level human-level weapon in the second grade.

This shows that the student in front of him is a genius.

"That's right, teacher, this is a primary human-level weapon." Lu Yao nodded.

"The combination of three runes, the quality of the weapon has stabilized at the elementary level of the human level, it can be seen that it has been promoted for a while." The teacher judged while checking.

"Very good, student Lu Yao, your score in the refining subject this time should be the highest in your grade."

A smile appeared on the face of the assessment teacher, and he was also happy that there are such students in the college.

"Thank you teacher!" Lu Yao said gratefully, "Then can I go back?"

"Of course!" The teacher nodded.

It took 2 hours, 31 minutes and 18 seconds to cast the weapon this time, which is actually not a short time.

There are several candidates who are faster than him, but those candidates are all casting stepless weapons, while he is casting human-level weapons.

Lu Yao bid farewell to the assessment teacher, left the training ground, went to the college cafeteria, and went to have lunch.

After the refining subject assessment is over, the assessment of all the subjects that Lu Yao has studied has ended.

"Before I leave the academy, I should verify my identity as a craftsman." Lu Yao thought to himself.

After he returned to the dormitory, he took his identity plate of the refiner with him, and then left his academy to sign up at the refiner's guild.

When he came to the Artifact Refiner's Guild, he walked directly to the front desk.

It was just after lunch time, and there were not many people consulting at the front desk, so he came to an idle staff member.

"Hello, I want to be certified as a junior human refiner, please arrange a time for me." Lu Yao said politely.

Then he put his identification plate of the refiner on the counter, and then told the staff his identity information.

"Wait a minute, I'll help you arrange it!" After checking his identity information, the staff left the counter and walked towards the inner room.

The Refiner's Guild is very large, in addition to some indoor office areas, there are also some open-air refining training grounds.

Every open-air refining training ground has casting furnaces. These casting furnaces have gradeless items, human-level quality, and earth-level quality.

There are even refiners who are forging weapons.

After waiting for about 20 minutes, the staff returned to the counter.

"Master Lu Yao, your assessment time has been arranged, please come to the guild on time at two o'clock tomorrow afternoon." The staff returned Lu Yao's identity plate to him and said.

"When the time comes, please bring your casting materials and identity tag with you."

"You don't need to bring casting equipment, our guild will prepare it."

From non-level refiners to earth-level refiners, they all need to use the casting equipment provided by the refiner's guild, which is also to make the assessment fairer.

But when it comes time to carry out the certification of the heaven-rank refiner, the refiner can choose to use his own equipment for the assessment.

"Okay, can casting materials be bought in the guild?" Lu Yao asked.

"Of course!" the staff replied.

The certification process for non-level refiners and human-level refiners is simple, and the time required is also very short. The certification can basically be arranged within two days.

When it comes to the certification of earth-level craftsmen and sky-rank craftsmen, it will be relatively troublesome, and the arrangement time will be longer.

Lu Yao handed over the registration fee to the staff, and then left the Artifact Refiner's Guild.

When he returned to the dormitory, everyone was practicing seriously.

Du Tong and Zhan Yu had already entered the bottleneck period before 100 strength, and during this period they kept using Ningpo Wan to break through this bottleneck period.

The breakthrough effect of Ningpowan on the 100-force energy and blood bottleneck period is a little worse than a gray air current in a misty state.

But fortunately, Ningpo Wan can be refined all the time, and they use it frequently, so the breakthrough progress in the bottleneck period is very fast.

Now even Lei Ming has entered the bottleneck period before 100 power, and Zhao Dieyi's progress is a bit slower.

But now he has felt that the power of qi and blood has begun to grow slowly, and it will not be long before entering the bottleneck period.

And in this semester, for them, it's not just the strength of blood that has improved.

They also learned multiple sets of primary combat skills, which gave them more combat methods and a deeper understanding of combat skills.

Du Tong and Zhan Yu have been able to complete the six moves of the water source combat technique, and now they are about to break through the seventh move.

Lei Ming and Zhao Dieyi have also been able to complete the four moves of the family's combat skills. Before breaking through the bottleneck period of 100 power, they are also confident that they can complete the fifth move.

And in the next semester, they will learn more basic combat skills.
