Broken Night

Chapter Three Hundred and Thirty – Casting

Countless people just glanced at it from a distance, and there was no big surprise.

As for the cultivator, just by looking at it, he can feel the power of the lines hidden in the picture. There seems to be mysteriousness in its outline, and it seems to be just a portrait of a tattooed beast, but in fact it is unfathomable and profound.

And the students below who participated in this forging selection battle have already shown some color.

Casting naturally refers to the casting of the shape.

Just like in those days, Qiao Zhigang, the first forging disciple Xu Yan received, was discovered by Xu Yan because of his unfamiliarity with casting shapes—casting shapes are very important to blacksmiths. It is like a sword. If you are not familiar with the casting shape and you are not well-made, or the weight of the left and right is different, it is likely to affect the feel of the sword holder.

For Xu Yan, this so-called selection battle was not difficult at all.

Just looking at the strange bow that was tailored for Xiao Xue that day, it seemed odd in appearance, but in fact the whole body was built according to Xiao Xue's body shape, arm length, finger length and other physical conditions. Who would dare to create such a strange bow if not for the almost terrifying confidence in casting?

What made Xu Yan pondered was that the tattooed beast in front of him did give him a kind of inspiration.

After all, Xu Yan is a blacksmith who has lived for two generations, and his forging foundation is bottomless. The idea of ​​forging is almost instinctive. Just by looking at the scroll in front of me, I was inspired.

At this time, countless disciples of the Jagged War Sect brought some materials over.

Among them, there are countless patterns, there are forging tables for fire forge masters, there are various quenching juices commonly used by grass forge masters, and there are ice tables for water forge masters. In short, it can be seen that this Jagged War Gate took a lot of scheming. Xu Yan visually estimated that the various materials and utensils to be used here alone would cost nearly one million taels.

Without thinking about it, Xu Yan walked over, picked some materials at random, and walked to the forging table to start the furnace.

The students' eyes flashed, but they didn't move. Some of them ignored Xu Yan's actions at all and looked at the portrait, as if they were carefully savoring the charm. However, some of them turned their attention to Xu Yan.

No way, because of defeating Zhou Ling, Xu Yan's reputation soared. In the forging world, there is even a rising tide. Some people already think that Xu Yan is the forging genius of the southern generation. The thirteen-year-old master, looking at a thousand years, is also unprecedented. Even the current spiritual master, the master of Fentian Mountain, Yan Rong, was twenty-one years old when he stepped into the master state. This is already a terrible record.

Unexpectedly, Xu Yan broke his record all of a sudden, even the first eight years!

How can this not make the younger generation of blacksmiths care about it?

As long as they looked at it, Xu Yan looked like an ordinary fire forging master. He simply started the furnace, burned and smelted the material metal, and then picked up the most ordinary forging hammer and beat it.

The whole process was uneventful.

...

"Well, it's alright."

It didn't take long for Xu Yan to walk in front of Feng Shang. Before many blacksmiths even started forging, Xu Yan had already finished it.

I saw Xu Yan's hand, but there was a large iron piece that looked ordinary.

Some students who were watching the show just sneered: "This is the so-called youngest master? Just make some broken tiles and pots and use them as cast shapes?"

Some people dare not speak indiscriminately, but the disapproval in their eyes is clear.

Among the students who watched the battle outside the gate, Hu Kong laughed mercilessly: "It seems that this kid has a bad luck to know the master of Chu Hengshan. Otherwise, why would Master Chu spend a lot of money to have his disciple replace him? This kid who is famous for fishing for fame is making a move?"

Hu Nian gave him a cold look: "Shut up."

"In the academy, you don't care about the open and secret battles between you, but outside, you both represent Yunfu."

"One is prosperous, and one is lost."

"If you make fun of your own students again, I'm welcome."

Hu Kong had to keep his mouth shut, but looked at Xu Yan with disdain. He didn't believe that someone could be a genius at the same time in two completely different paths, and step into the master at the same time as the weakest year.

Now he just looked at Feng Shang with anticipation, waiting for what Feng Shang would say to discredit Xu Yan! ?

...

In the stands, Feng Shang seemed indifferent on his face, but in fact he was keeping an eye on Xu Yan from the corner of his eyes.

First, it is because Xu Yan is currently in the limelight, and he can be said to be his disciple's biggest opponent. Second, it is naturally because Xu Yan took away the immortal wood that he had longed for.

It's just that he is a master blacksmith in the master realm. Although he is in the direction of grass refining, there is always the same reason for different paths in forging. By the way, the so-called grass refining, water casting, and fire forging are actually different methods of forging, and their principles are only similar.

Of course, as a grass refiner, he naturally wouldn't admit the so-called "fire forging is supreme" concept. He still believed that grass refining was definitely not weaker than fire forging.

Looking at Xu Yan's unremarkable actions from his realm, he couldn't help being a little shocked.

The so-called layman is watching the fun, and the expert is watching the doorway.

And now Xu Yan's every move, not to mention layman, even the layman can't see too much. Feng Shang was convinced that he was the only one who could understand without Chu Hengshan's words. Xu Yan seemed to randomly burn and smelt all kinds of metals.

Among those metals, there are "Tongyun Steel" and "Water Milk Stone".

Tongyun Steel, the name is the same as its appearance. Its metal surface has bursts of pale red marks like red clouds, and its property is fire, which is most suitable for creating fire-type soldiers.

The sapphire stone is a stone mined from the bottom of the frozen lake, which is extremely cold.

The properties of the two materials are abruptly different.

Just as a master of forging, Feng Shang knows that although Tongyun Steel is fire, it has a strong earth property. A fine metal.

And Xu Yan actually maximized the metal distribution during smelting. Under the circumstance that the water property of the sapphire does not break the Tongyun Steel, the water property of the sapphire is kept alive, together with several other auxiliary metals. Into Tongyun Steel through smelting!

The weights in it must be very precise, if it is a little bit off, it will be in danger of frying!

But Xu Yan didn't seem to have any hesitation on his face, and threw the metal that was in danger of being fried into the forging table, as indifferent as a cook who poured sugar bowls into a pot.

Since Xu Yan is not a layman, there is only one explanation: he is extremely confident in his refining methods! It is possible to have such indifference! It's not pretending, it's thinking from the heart

The realm of impossibility to go wrong!

The random beating that followed looked like a random beating, but to Feng Shang's ears, it sounded like heavenly sounds.
