Chapter 4 Forging Competition, Saint Craftsman Muchen

Dangdang Dangdang!
The sound of metal colliding continued in the stadium. Although it sounded a bit chaotic, it inexplicably seemed to have a pattern.

That was the sound of hammer hitting iron!
Donghai City is a city located in the eastern part of Douluo Continent, and in a venue in this city, a small forging exchange competition is being held.

The younger generation of blacksmiths were sweating as they worked with hammers on the arena in the center of the city management center. With their efforts, the forged metal became more and more transparent.

This was just an exchange competition between schools. The oldest student on the stage was only fifteen years old, and the levels of the blacksmiths were generally level one and level two.

For young people, these students participating in the forging exchange competition are all their idols and are expected to become senior blacksmiths in the future.

But for those high-level blacksmiths, this game was really nothing to watch, and Mu Chen was one of them.

As the president of the Donghai City branch of the Blacksmiths Association, Mu Chen is an eight-star saint craftsman who is able to perform a variety of complex smelting and forging.

According to common sense, he shouldn't be here, because the branch president of the Blacksmith Association is busy with all kinds of things, how can he have time to participate in such a small-scale exchange competition? Even if someone paid to invite him, they might not be able to invite him.

Because in the eyes of the Holy Craftsman, money is no longer that important. As long as he is determined to make money, he can sell a few pieces of metal at a high price.

The reason why this eight-star saint craftsman came here was purely because his daughter had made some progress in the forging technique. He was happy and came out for a walk. He happened to come across a forging exchange competition here, so he just came to take a look.

"Master Saint Craftsman, these children are the future of our academy. What do you think of them?"

"The future is scary, but the future is promising!"

Although most of them were mediocre, Mu Chen was in a good mood right now, so it was not a big problem to give a good evaluation. For him, it was just a matter of a few words.

But for the dean who asked the question, the meaning is different.

This is praise from the Holy Craftsman. If you tell this to the children, it will definitely inspire them greatly and the benefits will be enormous!
The exchange competition ended soon, and the first place winner was a second-level blacksmith, who was also the one that Mu Chen had been optimistic about at the beginning.

"It seems that there are no outstanding children here..."

But Muchen's attention was soon attracted by the scene below, because after all the students left the stage, a middle-aged man actually stepped onto the stage again.

Mu Chen was a little confused, because he knew the middle-aged man below, who was a level five blacksmith from the Donghai City Blacksmith Branch.

Although Mu Chen could not remember his name, he was very impressed by this person. He could perform level 5 spiritual forging and was considered a master craftsman, but the metals he forged were all inferior, so there would not be much room for future growth.

If nothing goes wrong, he will probably stop here in his life.

What is he doing here?
However, as the broadcast here continued, Muchen also understood the purpose.

"Please give a warm welcome to the Grand Master, and show us the spirit forging style!"

Obviously, he was here to give guidance to the students.

Mu Chen couldn't help but glance at the dean next to him. He didn't expect that this person had some skills. Although he was the worst master, the fact that he was invited was enough to show that this dean had some connections.

But none of this had anything to do with Muchen. He was just out for a walk and would go home to see his daughter after a while.

The spiritual forging demonstration soon came to an end. Compared with the excited students and teachers on the scene, Mu Chen seemed particularly calm, and there was even some dissatisfaction in his eyes.

He could tell at a glance that the quality of the spirit-forged metal was inferior again! This guy hadn't made any progress in recent years!
And looking at the expressions of the people around him, even the dean of the academy next to him couldn't tell the quality of the metal at all. Seeing so many people chasing after a piece of substandard spirit-forged metal, Mu Chen couldn't help but feel a little annoyed, but he didn't have the heart to speak out and ruin the children's enthusiasm.

"Let's go for a walk."

After sighing helplessly, Mu Chen stood up from his seat. He refused everyone's offer to accompany him and left alone.

His good mood due to his daughter's achievement disappeared completely after he watched this unsatisfactory spiritual training. Now he just wanted to go to the beach to relax.

Because of his identity, Mu Chen did not plan to go through the main gate, but chose an empty path and walked slowly forward.

clatter! clatter! clatter!
However, not long after, the sound of running came from behind him. Judging from the sound, the owner of the footsteps should be young, probably around ten years old.

Mu Chen couldn't help but look back. A little girl was running towards him with a bunch of metal materials... Could it be that she was asking for his autograph? Or was she asking for forging techniques?

Although he had many questions in his mind, Mu Chen still looked at the little girl carefully. She had regular features and was definitely a beauty. And the pile of metal materials in her hand seemed to be the leftovers from the competition just now?
Looking at the girl's appearance, Mu Chen couldn't help but think of his own daughter. Mu Xi also seemed to be very happy when she hugged the leftover materials from his forging.

"Well, since I've met you, I'll give you some pointers." With a plan in mind, Mu Chen raised his hand and wanted to call the girl over, "If you have any questions, just..."

Muchen: ???
Before he could finish his words, Mu Chen froze in place.

The girl showed no intention of stopping and ran straight past him towards the exit in the distance.

The scene couldn't help but feel awkward.

"Little girl, wait!"

"Huh?" The girl who was about to leave stopped immediately and looked over in confusion after hearing the voice behind her.

"Don't you have anything to say to me?" Mu Chen pointed at his face. As a saint craftsman, his appearance had already spread out long ago. There were very few people in the forging field who didn't know him. Judging from the girl's appearance, she should be a blacksmith as well, right?
"To you?" The girl tilted her head, her puzzled expression was very cute, and then answered uncertainly, "May you be blessed as vast as the East Sea and live as long as the Southern Mountains?"

puff!
Mu Chen couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood in his heart. He controlled his temper and said with a smile: "I'm talking about the forging field. Don't you have anything to ask me?"

"What do I want to ask you?" After hearing Mu Chen's words, the girl immediately became impatient, "Old man, aren't you a little too arrogant?"

"Just like the poor fifth-level blacksmith on the stage just now, who only performed an unqualified spiritual forging and thought he could do whatever he wanted just because he had some skills?"

"If I were the same age as you, I would have been a master craftsman long ago!"

Looking at the old man in front of him who was shocked by what he said, Heita turned around gracefully and left, leaving Mu Chen alone in a mess. After all, he was an eight-star saint craftsman. When had he ever been pointed at in the nose and scolded like this?

But soon, Mu Chen's expression changed.

"Wait! She knows that the spiritual forging just now failed?"

In the exchange competition just now, Mu Chen was sure that except for himself and the fifth-level blacksmith who came on stage, no other high-level blacksmith came here. So how did this girl know?

Driven by curiosity, Mu Chen followed the girl along the path she left, intending to find out what was going on.

I never thought that an eight-star saint craftsman from the Blacksmith Association would be reduced to stalking a little girl... This world is really going downhill!
