Chapter 15 Forging Equipment Assessment
Chapter 15 Forging Equipment Assessment
Equipment Refining Hall.
Li Quanqing walked in the outermost fire hall area. The air was still scorching hot, but the clanging sound of iron hammering was missing.
He entered the forging hall and saw fifty or sixty boys and girls standing there nervously. They were his classmates.
As early as three months ago, they had completed the assessments of the Yellow Level Academy one after another, became Black Level apprentices, and began to forge mortal weapons with their own hands.
Today is the day of the assessment.
If you fail, you will need to stay in the Fire Hall to learn blacksmithing, and you may be scolded by those mortal weapon-making masters.
Li Quanqing glanced around and saw a dozen old students sitting in the corner, who had been "held back" for two or three years.
He found his own forging table and stood there. Next to him was Li Quanshu, who looked a little nervous.
While checking his forging tools, Li Quanqing asked with concern: "Senior Sister, is there any definite news about my Bright Moon Shells?"
"You kid, why are you asking this in such a serious occasion? Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you have talent?"
Li Quanshu gritted her teeth, and even with her good temper she was a little angry: "What if I fail the exam?"
"Then I'll have to wait another half a year. I've only been studying at the Weapon Hall for a short time, so it's not normal for me to fail."
Li Quanqing shrugged his shoulders, looking nonchalant.
The passing standard for the Fire Hall's assessment is to imitate the two magical weapons, the Green Carp Sword and the Green Scale Shield, and forge the weapon embryos one-to-one.
The difficulty was directly reduced a lot.
With the brain and understanding of a cultivator, as long as he has a little talent for refining equipment, he can pass it after studying for a few months.
After hearing this, Li Quanshu would no longer believe the words of his junior brother.
During the last yellow-level apprentice assessment, this guy also had a nonchalant attitude. I heard that he was still feeding fishes the night before the exam and did not review at all.
Then he easily got first place in the school.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she got.
Li Quanqing was a little confused as he watched the girl's face change constantly. "Sister, don't you want the weapon refining experience left by my ancestors?"
Looking at that handsome smiling face, Li Quanshu resisted the urge to beat him up and uttered a word through gritted teeth: "Yes!"
"Then I'll wait for news from Senior Sister!"
Li Quanqing nodded with satisfaction. He was still very interested in this kind of bright moon shell that could give birth to gems.
Boom! !
The jade chime was struck, and the sound was ethereal and melodious. All the students immediately sat up straight and dared not whisper anymore.
The invigilator walked into the hall. It was none other than Li Quanlin, a modest gentleman who had led Li Quanqing to meet the third elder. He had an elegant appearance.
"Good day, Senior Brother!"
Li Quanlin accepted the master's gift openly, and swept his majestic eyes over everyone: "Each person will be given two spiritual materials as per the rules, and the examination time is unlimited. However, anyone with evil intentions and the intention to deceive will be expelled from the hall!"
Li Quanqing couldn't help but stand solemnly at this time, reviewing the steps of refining the two magic weapons in his mind.
Fortunately, he does have a great talent in refining equipment, plus the previous light ball reward.
The advantage is mine!
Boom!Boom!Boom!
One by one, the mortal servants became busy and began to carry various spiritual materials for refining for the candidates in an orderly manner.
Some of the iron ores looked only as big as a palm, but they were extremely heavy and made a loud noise when they fell on the stone platform.
Li Quanqing touched them one by one, and suddenly his eyes lit up.
[First-grade middle-grade Yang Ming Gold, similar to Yin but actually Yang, is formed by the Yang Gold of Li Fire being infiltrated by the evil spirit of Xuan Yin. It has a miraculous effect on the growth of Iron Bone Crabs.]
Li Quanqing has already fully understood the object identification function of the golden finger.
Only materials that are beneficial to the spiritual beasts he raises will show entry prompts.
"Yangming Gold, good stuff, but it's not useful for refining the Green Carp Sword and Green Scale Shield. It seems to be used to deceive people!"
Li Quanqing smiled in his heart.
It seems to be an assessment of weapon forging ability, but in fact it also includes the basic knowledge learned before, such as spiritual material identification.
He was familiar with the process and selected the sea heart copper for forging the Green Carp Sword, and then pulled out a fish bone with green patterns from the spiritual materials.
According to the orthodox weapon-making technique, one should use spiritual fire to forge a sword embryo from the Sea Heart Copper Mother and the spine of the Green Jade Carp, and then forge and fuse the fish scales.
Nowadays, not only is the copper ore of inferior quality, but even the fish bones used are only the spines of large bluefish.
Not on the same level at all.
Just make do with it.
Li Quanqing held his breath and concentrated, heating the copper block and the fish bone one after another, and then swung the hammer and smashed it hard. Clang! Clang! Clang!
For a moment, the whole hall was echoed with the harsh sound of iron hammering.
Li Quanlin and the other two invigilators walked around the hall from time to time. Occasionally their eyes met, and they all nodded silently.
……
With a hissing sound, the red sword embryo was inserted into the water for tempering, and white mist rolled up, like a sea of clouds steaming.
Li Quanqing shook his wrist and pulled out a sword with a cold glow, which was made of green scales.
The sword blade was covered with fine serrations, making a sound without wind, and its sharp edge was fully exposed. When it was swung, it looked like a green dragon tumbling up and down in the water vapor.
The vision was extraordinary.
Although it has no spiritual patterns engraved on it and cannot even be considered an inferior magical weapon, it is definitely a peerless sword that can cut through iron like mud in the secular world.
Li Quanqing was also quite satisfied with his work. After swallowing two fasting pills, he took a short rest and then began to forge the Green Scale Shield.
The shield is much larger than the sword, so the refining process is naturally more difficult.
There are many kinds of mineral materials and the craftsmanship requires fine craftsmanship. The fish scales must be inlaid on the surface of the shield one by one at a special angle.
In addition to its amazing defensive capabilities, it can also be used as a saw when rotated, allowing for both attack and defense.
Li Quanqing spent two days and one night to finally succeed in forging it.
A sword and a shield are placed side by side, with green light flashing and complementing each other, giving an indescribable sense of accomplishment.
Especially when he looked around and found that he was the first one to pass the test.
This sense of accomplishment reached its peak in an instant.
"You did a great job, kid!"
Li Quanlin happened to come here, picked up the two weapons and admired them for a while, and whispered encouragement: "You passed the test, keep up the good work, Junior Brother!"
Li Quanqing was delighted and felt relieved.
Of course, what made him happiest was that all the unused minerals and spiritual materials belonged to him personally.
This is free money!
Li Quan had nothing to do, but he couldn't leave, so he had to look around.
Li Quanshu next to him couldn't help but glare at him fiercely.
Those beautiful eyes seemed to be saying - don't bother me!
Li Quanqing grinned at his senior sister, shifted his gaze, and soon found his target.
Cousin Li Quanzhu.
This middle school boy possesses a mid-level fire spiritual root, which makes him suitable for refining equipment. He has reason to be proud.
At this time, he had completed the forging of the Green Carp Sword and was carefully forging the Green Scale Shield.
Immortal cultivators have sharp spiritual perception, and Li Quanzhu quickly realized that someone was spying on him.
He took the time to look up and took a quick glance. When he saw who it was, his eyes were full of disgust.
Li Quanqing smiled, his smile was pure and innocent, and his sparkling white teeth conveyed full kindness.
Li Quanzhu wanted to ignore it, but the feeling of being on edge was really a torture, so he couldn't help but glare back.
One eye, two eyes, three eyes...
boom! !
The Green Scale Shield embryo was heated unevenly and was suddenly hit by an external force, causing it to explode and break into pieces.
"This unfortunate child, his skills are still not up to par. Is it difficult to forge this thing?"
Li Quanqing calmly withdrew his gaze.
The main reason was that I received a warning look from Li Quanlin, so I had to give face to my senior brother!
Because he was too bored, Li Quanqing suddenly had an idea and wanted to try to forge a piece of jade armor.
Named after the Li family's "Qing Yu", this spiritual armor is so precious that each piece is a genuine top-grade magical weapon.
Wearing it will make you invincible!
Li Quanqing even vaguely guessed from those weapon refining books that magic weapons were not the limit of the Green Jade Armor.
If the material is precious and the weapon master is highly skilled, he can even create a "Jade Armor" of spiritual weapon level.
The spiritual weapon carries a trace of spirituality, which is exclusive to the great monks who have established their foundation. It is far superior to the best magic weapons and has astonishing power.
Therefore, the structure of the Jade Armor is extremely complicated. Even if only these low-level materials are used, it is difficult to create a replica of the level of mortal weapons.
The difficulty is also terrifyingly high.
Li Quanqing had nothing to do anyway, so he just picked up the hammer and started working!
