Divine Craftsman Ling Yi

"This piece was created a hundred years ago by the Divine Craftsman Xue Ji during his evaluation for advancement to the Divine Craftsman..."

Lou Gao stood in front of an "Eight-Ridged Armor-Piercing Spear" and introduced it to Tang Hao and the others, "The spear body is forged from seven kinds of precious metals, including Deep Sea Heavy Silver and Red Copper Marrow, and has been forged more than 3,700 times. It combines strength and flexibility. It is flexible enough to bend to the end, and strong enough to withstand the impact of a force of 10,000 jin without deforming..."

"The spearhead is further fortified with three ounces of ' Cold Heart Iron Essence,' making it sharp enough to pierce through twenty layers of iron armor as easily as piercing rotten soil!"

Tang Hao's eyes flickered. The moment he saw the spear, he felt a strange sensation. It was different from the handcrafted feel of the two-handed greatswords he had made before. This "Eight-Ridged Armor-Piercing Spear" gave people a sense of natural comfort.

It's like... Martial Soul!

Beside them, Yang Wushuang reacted the most, her whole body trembling with excitement, a strong possessiveness welling up in her heart.

When it comes to guns, Yang Wushuang can confidently say to everyone in the Douluo Continent that no one knows guns better than the Yang Clan of the Soul Breaking Spear!

This "Eight-Ridged Armor-Piercing Spear" reminded Yang Wushuang of the invincible and unbreakable spirit that his father exuded when he and his elder brother Yang Wudi wielded the spear in front of him and his older brother when he was a child.

Just as Yang Wushuang was about to ask if he could buy the "Eight-Ridged Armor-Piercing Spear," Tai Tan, seemingly sensing this, spoke first, pointing to another mahogany shelf a few steps away, and said:

"Compared to the ' Eight-Ridged Armor-Piercing Spear,' I still prefer these ' Drum-Beating Urn-Gold Hammers.' No matter what kind of armor or steel spear they are, one hammer blow and they're all ruined!"

Hearing this, Lou Gao rolled his eyes at Tai Tan and said irritably, "Don't you think about it? Your Martial Soul is enough to support you in using these ' Drum-Beating Urn-Gold Hammers,' but what about everyone else?"

"In the past two hundred years, apart from the forger of that time, the Divine Craftsman Chuan Ge, how many people have been able to wield these ' Drum-Beating Urn-Gold Hammers '?"

"One weapon weighs 1,500 jin, and a pair of ' Drum-Beating Urn-Gold Hammers ' together weigh a total of 3,000 jin, and they still have to be wielded in battle..."

"Not everyone's Martial Soul can follow the power path like your ' Great Strength Gorilla,' nor can everyone cultivate ' Thousand Ton Ant ' to the Soul Douluo level like the Divine Craftsman Chuan Ge!"

Tai Tan's banter calmed Yang Wushuang down a bit, and she stopped asking Lou Gao about whether the exhibits could be sold.

At this moment, he realized that if it were truly for sale, it would most likely be placed in the Lou Gao or the auction area on the fourth floor. But displaying it here, Tai Tan the earlier Lou Gao about its commemorative significance and prestige, made a sale unlikely.

Of course, Yang Wushuang believed that as long as he offered the right price, Lou Gao would give him face given his status.

But now, he needs to give Tai Tan face, instead of using his power to intimidate them from the start.

Besides, not far behind them, the former president of the Blacksmith Association, now the Soul Douluo Divine Craftsman Tie Futu, was still watching.

It must be said that with Tie Futu's advancement to Soul Douluo, the situation of the Blacksmith Association is now vastly different from what it used to be.

As the saying goes, when you become powerful, everyone around you is a polite and kind person, and they say things you want to hear.

In the past, Yang Wushuang wouldn't have thought too much about it. He could give Tai Tan face if he wanted, or he could simply call on his elder brother, Yang Wudi, to fight Tai Tan later. Could Tai Tan really turn against Yang Wushuang and the Yang Clan completely?

"Huh?!"

Just then, Tang Yuehua stood in front of a light-colored wooden frame, her mouth slightly open, her expression filled with undisguised amazement.

"What's wrong, Yuehua?"

Tang Hao immediately walked towards Tang Yuehua, but before taking a step, he subconsciously glanced at the two exhibits in front of him: the "Skylark Scarlet Feather Saber" forged by the Tie Futu decades ago, and the "Brilliant Bright Silver Armor" forged by Lou Gao a few years ago.

"Second Brother, look~" Tang Yuehua didn't turn around, but felt Tang Hao's voice coming to her side, and pointed to the exhibits on the wooden shelf in front of her.

"Huh?!"

The same exclamation of surprise came from Tang Hao, which also attracted the attention of Tai Tan, Yang Wushuang, and others who were still looking at other exhibits.

Ignoring the crowd gathered behind him, Tang Hao, like Tang Yuehua, stared intently at the exhibit in front of him.

It was a sword.

Unlike the two-handed greatswords Tang Hao had previously forged, this sword's blade was only three feet and three inches long, and no more than two and a half fingers wide. The blade was a bluish-green color, giving it a crystal-clear appearance. Compared to the other weapons used for combat in this exhibition area, this sword seemed more like a delicate and beautiful work of art.

However, neither Tang Yuehua, nor Tang Hao, nor Tai Tan, Yang Wushuang, and others who arrived later regarded the sword as a mere ornament upon first seeing it.

Because this seemingly unsharp longsword will give everyone who looks at it a sharp and insightful feeling from the bottom of their heart.

"Old Lou!" Tai Tan couldn't hold back any longer and asked the question everyone was eager to know, "Whose work is this sword?"

"I've only been away for seven or eight years, when did the association acquire such a skilled Divine Craftsman?"

That's right, Divine Craftsman. Although Tai Tan hadn't personally tested the sword's performance data, with his Grandmaster Blacksmith's eye and Soul Emperor- level strength, he was certain that Grandmaster Blacksmith couldn't forge such a work!

Furthermore, the Blacksmith Association has produced a third Divine Craftsman, yet they haven't publicized it—that's rather unusual.

Actually, it wasn't that the Blacksmith Association didn't make an announcement, but rather that the information about Ling Yi's advancement to Divine Craftsman was directly overshadowed by the news of Tie Futu's promotion to Soul Douluo.

After all, compared to a Soul Douluo, the Divine Craftsman's status is still considerably lower.

Of course, this is also why Ling Yi chose to take the Divine Craftsman advancement assessment only after becoming Soul Douluo in the Tie Futu.

"Hehe~" Lou Gao's face revealed a proud and smug smile, even wider than when he introduced his work "Brilliant Bright Silver Armor" to Tai Tan: "This is the work of my junior brother, Ling Yi!"

Everyone noticed that when Lou Gao said "junior brother," he deliberately emphasized the word, and the boastful tone was very strong.

Tai Tan understood Lou Gao's personality and didn't indulge him. He immediately turned to look at Tie Futu, who was standing with Tang Chen at the back of the crowd, and asked, "Grandpa, have you taken on another disciple?"

"Wasn't it said that Lao Lou was your last disciple? Has he encountered someone with even greater talent?"

At this point, Tai Tan deliberately glanced sideways at the Lou Gao next to him.

Unexpectedly, Lou Gao didn't care about Tai Tan's teasing at all, and his smug look on his face didn't diminish in the slightest.

Just as Tai Tan was filled with doubt, Tie Futu stepped forward, looking at the sword with a smile, and said with a chuckle, "Ah Yi is my senior brother's disciple, but to achieve what he has today, we are just icing on the cake; it's all thanks to his own talent..."

"This sword, its blade is like autumn frost, its patterns like the ripples of autumn water, and like the melting of spring ice, its light scattering and shadow spreading, its edge frosty and its spine snowy. Neither Lou Gao nor I could achieve this level..."
