Earth Spirit Main City.

As the city with the largest number of dwarves living in the Dwarf Realm, its prosperity is evident.

At this moment, Chen Ning and Su Ling'er were strolling around the city, experiencing the customs and culture of the Dwarf Race.

Chen Ning was still clueless about the opportunity for Su Ling'er's breakthrough.

But that didn't stop the two from having fun in the city.

There are many skilled craftsmen among the Dwarf Race.

The toys and toys they made were all very novel and interesting.

Various projects can be created using only some metal or wood.

Before Chen Ning stood a rotating device resembling a Ferris wheel.

But it's much faster than the Ferris wheel I remember.

Several of my dwarf brothers have already been vomited out.

There are also wooden horses that can fly briefly.

The rocking horse is extremely realistic; its up-and-down motion makes it feel just like riding a real horse.

It can still fly.

It's even more fun than turning your fighting spirit into a horse!

Chen Ning observed that most of those playing this game were female dwarves.

As for other entertainment facilities, there are countless others.

Chen Ning also discovered some business opportunities within it.

If I weren't the leader of the Dragon-Seeking Sect and didn't have a system, I could take many of the novel items here and do business outside.

Perhaps I will become a super merchant in the Nine Provinces.

At this moment, a sudden uproar erupted in the East Square.

Many dwarves have gathered here.

"Come on, Ling'er, let's go take a look."

Chen Ning took Su Ling'er's hand and walked towards the East Square.

At this moment, it seems that some kind of event is taking place in the square.

In front of the four young Dwarf Race were some metal or wood and stone materials.

To Chen Ning's surprise, he didn't recognize any of these materials.

In the distance, high above the stands, several solemn-faced Dwarf Race elders calmly watched the dozen or so young dwarves.

There were quite a few dwarfs watching.

Through their conversation, Chen Ning learned some information.

This is an appraisal conference.

Those four young dwarves were all apprentice appraisers of the Dwarf Race.

As for the old dwarf on the high platform, he was one of four appraisers and one master appraiser.

"Alright! You've passed the first round of assessments, but the conditions for becoming Master Gu's apprentices are extremely stringent. Only one of you will have this opportunity!"

An old dwarf in a blue robe stood up and began to explain.

The four young dwarves all revealed a hint of longing.

They endured much hardship to learn the Appraisal Technique, but none of that mattered, as long as they could become apprentices and become disciples of Master Gu.

They would then become the elite among the Dwarf Race.

They would hold a prominent position throughout the entire Dwarf Realm.

They performed exceptionally well in the first round of assessments, eliminating many others, and only barely made it to this round.

We must not let our guard down.

Especially Shi Tian, who was wearing tattered armor, looked resolute despite his nervousness.

He came from the lowest of the low, being a lowly dwarf among the Dwarf Race.

He was looked down upon and ridiculed by his own clan from a young age.

Becoming an appraiser was his only way out in order to change his fate!

He just wanted his family to be able to hold their heads high, even though they were dwarfs.

No longer looked down upon.

"Now I will read out the rules for the second round. The first round was about identifying materials, and this second round is about identifying weapons!"

The blue-robed dwarf slowly explained the rules.

"You will jointly appraise three weapons crafted by our race, identify their flaws, and rank them based on accuracy and speed. The one ranked first will become Master Gu's last disciple!"

After explaining the rules.

The dwarves watching were all taken aback.

They actually gave these trainee appraisers such a difficult test.

Judging the quality and material of a weapon would not be difficult for these talented young dwarves.

But we want to find the flaws in them.

How easy is that?

Even a certified appraiser wouldn't dare say they'd definitely pass this test.

Only one person remained in a very relaxed posture throughout.

At that moment, Lie Tu, dressed in exquisite silk, and the old dwarf in blue robes exchanged a subtle glance.

The latter gave him a barely perceptible nod.

He immediately felt completely relieved.

He looked disdainfully at his three competitors, a mocking smile playing on his lips, and said, "Stop struggling. You lowly dwarves dare to dream of becoming appraisers? You're overestimating yourselves..."

The championship had already been decided by him.

No matter how hard they try, it will be to no avail.

Shi Tian clenched his fists, glaring defiantly at his opponent. He knew that Lie Tu was of noble birth, a so-called upper-class dwarf, and a high-and-mighty playboy in the entire Earth Spirit Main City.

But he will never give up easily.

Soon.

All three weapons were placed in front of them.

Chen Ning was standing closest to Shi Tian, so he watched with great interest, curious about how these dwarves appraised weapons.

All that could be seen was that Shi Tian's attention was completely focused on that short knife.

Immediately, a surge of earth-yellow Essence Power rose from the ground, enveloping the short sword.

This is the secret Technique of Appraisal by the Dwarf Race.

The Dwarf Race specialize in the power of the Earth-Element Essence Power, which is the most stable Earth-Element Essence Power.

Gentle and gentle.

Therefore, it is most suitable for cultivating the Appraisal Technique.

Fine beads of sweat appeared on Shi Tian's forehead.

However, he had already obtained some information about the short knife.

The short knife gleamed with a green light.

This indicates that the dagger is of excellent quality.

Shi Tian raised his hand to wipe the sweat from his brow and said, "Appraiser, this short sword is forged from Flame-Suppressing Mystic Iron, ranking as a low-grade Mystic Artifact. Its quality is excellent, but its flaw is... is..."

"What is it? Can't you even say? A lowly dwarf is a lowly dwarf. Do you think you can compete with me Lie Tu, just because you've learned a little bit of Appraisal Technique?"

Lie Tu laughed loudly, then turned his gaze to the other two.

The two dwarfs each sighed and said in unison, "I give up."

They're okay at identifying some materials, but when it comes to actually identifying weapons, they're far from qualified.

They wisely gave up.

On the contrary, it will not cause Lie Tu's dissatisfaction.

Lie Tu, relying on his father's favor with the Dwarf King, and his entire Lineage lorded over the Earth Spirit Main City, looking down on all the lower-ranking dwarves.

They dared not provoke Lie Tu.

Only Shi Tian was still fully activating his Appraisal Technique, trying to find the flaws in the short knife; his Appraisal Technique were indeed not very profound.

They only have some rudimentary methods.

But he was willing to endure hardship, working day and night, putting in several times the time of others to study, which is why he has this opportunity today.

At this Lie Tu, seeing his two opponents give up, Lie Tu was even more satisfied and took out the correct answer that the blue-robed appraiser had secretly given him earlier.

When he saw that Shi Tian was still determined to use his Appraisal Technique to appraise the item, he couldn't help but shake his head with a cold laugh.

At the same time.

The system's voice sounded in Chen Ning's ear.

"Ding! How can a peerless sect leader let such a promising talent go to waste? Please choose whether to accept the Dwarf Race youth [Shi Tian] into the sect?"

Option 1 [Subdue] will reward you with a [Super Grade One Pill Formula]

Option two [I won't accept it, I'll just wander around] will reward you with a set of traditional Dwarf Race clothing.

I never expected that just joining in the fun would trigger a system decision.

Chen Ning smiled slightly, summoned the Hammer of Appraisal, and held it in his hand.
