"In this age, blacksmithing is a lowly profession, but I believe that in the future, it will surely rise to a status comparable to that of Soul Masters."
For Tie Li to say such words now sounded more like nonsense. The other blacksmiths in the forge flushed with embarrassment when they heard him, feeling that Tie Li thought far too highly of them.
