C.843: Nana Argues with Mister Le
TL : BluVerse
Lan Xuanyu looked at the silver in front of him, then looked at Tang Le beside him, and asked tentatively, "Uncle Le, did I succeed?"
Tang Le smiled slightly and said, "Of course. Congratulations, from this moment on, you can already say that you are a seventh-rank blacksmith. I didn't expect you to succeed on your first attempt. And you also found your own special path of forging. Although in my opinion, this is a bit of cheating, haha."
Before Lan Xuanyu could even speak in excitement, Nana's voice rang out, "This is using your own advantages, how is it cheating? Not everyone can forge like this. In fact, aren't there many blacksmiths with the fire attribute? They use their fire attribute to sense the changes in metal during forging."
After being criticized by Nana, Tang Le just chuckled, shook his head lightly, and said, "That's not true. Not everyone who possesses a fire attribute martial soul can have a fire element affinity like you two. Without a fire element affinity, it's impossible to feel such obvious feedback. You can only feel it slightly. And from Lan Xuanyu's performance just now, it is evident that he can clearly feel every minute change in the silver through the feedback of the fire element."
"He is in a very good state, which will make it easier for him in the future during the process of fusion forging. The most troublesome part of fusion forging is that when different metals are forged together, strange reactions may occur, and most blacksmiths can only judge it based on experience. If they can truly feel it, then forging will be much easier. What I called cheating, is actually a shortcut for Xuanyu in forging, which is destined to make his forging success rate higher than others."
Lan Xuanyu finally understood. It was unexpected that having an element affinity could have such a good effect on forging. This was definitely a pleasant surprise.
"Soul Refinement, I succeeded in one try! Emerald Demon Battleship, we will only eat fine grains from now on, and we won't have to eat Spirit Refinement anymore. Haha."
Emerald Demon Battlement did not need rare metals that had undergone fusion forging. It only required Soul Refinement.
Tang Le shook his head and said, "There isn't a big problem, it's just that your Soul Refinement still needs to continue to be honed to make your senses more acute. In addition, you need to learn how to stay calm during the Soul Refinement process, so that you can better control the feedback of the fire element and avoid making mistakes."
Tang Le shook his head and said, "Because you have an advantage in affinity for the fire element, your forging method is actually not exactly the same as mine. Forge in your own way and become proficient. There isn't much more I can teach you. Keep practicing. If you can achieve a stable success rate, I will teach you about Soul Refinement at a higher level in the next few days. If you can complete that, then you will have the level of an eighth-ranked blacksmith."
The entire afternoon, Lan Xuanyu spent all his time on forging. Nana's reminder allowed him to perfectly utilize the advantage of breaking through to the fifth ring and having five hundred thousand-year soul rings in forging.
Controlling the fire element at the level of a hundred-thousand-year soul ring was truly like a king of fire elements. With this control, Lan Xuanyu made a leap in progress in forging, far beyond just breaking through Soul Refinement.
His success rate in Soul Refinement was much higher than he had imagined, and the feedback effect of the fire element was extremely good. He even tried to solidify some other elemental attributes at the last moment while fusing with the fire element.
It was impossible to do with the fire element alone, but after the metal gained life, it became possible to incorporate some wind, earth, and even light elements.
Lan Xuanyu tirelessly experimented in each forging attempt. With the support of the dragon core and the powerful strength of his bloodline, he didn't feel tired at all.
It wasn't until nightfall that Mister Lei spoke up, "Let's call it a day here. Your success rate in Soul Refinement is truly beyond my expectations. Tomorrow, I will teach you about fused forging in Soul Refinement. It may take some time for you to digest and understand. After that, you can try to make a three-words battle armor. You should try to experiment more with your ability to fuse elements. It should be a very interesting topic for you to explore which elements can stimulate the activity of different metals to the strongest and be more suitable for different soul masters. It will also greatly increase the value of the products you forge in the future."
Lan Xuanyu was now completely satisfied! It was too good to be true. He had a success rate of up to 30% in Soul Refinement this afternoon.
That's right, it's 30%. It may not sound high, but this is Soul Refinement, not Spirit Refinement. What's even more terrifying is that with the feedback from the fire element, his Spirit Refinement success rate is at least 100% this afternoon. In other words, every rare metal forging can be 100% successful in Spirit Refinement.
Just with this success rate, Lan Xuanyu feels that he can harvest some of the outer courtyard students. He can definitely earn a lot of money.
Despite being the richest student in the outer courtyard before, he has now become the most indebted. He owes a lot of debts in order to make a breakthrough, so how can he not work hard in forging?
Moreover, he now has the powerful tool of Soul Refinement. If he can further improve his Soul Refinement success rate and combine it with fused forging, he believes that repaying his debts won't be too difficult. He can also start saving resources for his next breakthrough. Everything is so beautiful and prosperous.
After leaving the forging workshop, Nana wiped away the nonexistent sweat on Lan Xuanyu's forehead and asked, "Are you tired?"
"I'm okay, Teacher Nana. This time, during my breakthrough, I condensed a small crystal in the bloodline vortex. I call it the Dragon Core. It seems to be able to help me convert bloodline power on its own, rather than just consuming it without recovery. It feels a bit like the Soul Core they talk about, and it greatly enhances my ability to fight continuously." Lan Xuanyu was in a particularly good mood today, not just because of his successful Soul Refinement, but also because Teacher Nana and Uncle Le were both present.
Nana smiled and said, "I can feel that this is a very good situation."
Lan Xuanyu asked, "What do you want to eat? Shall we eat out or in the dorm? Should I invite Xiuxiu?"
Nana nodded and said, "Sure, invite her too. I'll stay at her place tonight."
Mister Le was an outsider, so of course, she couldn't stay at Lan Xuanyu's place today.
Lan Xuanyu called Bai Xiuxiu on his soul communicator, and before long, she rushed over to join them.
In the end, they decided to eat in Lan Xuanyu's dormitory. Mister Le was just too conspicuous. Even with a mask and hat, it was impossible to completely cover up. In addition, each of them had such outstanding looks. If they went out together, the probability of attracting attention was just too high.
On the way back to the dormitory, Bai Xiuxiu pulled Lan Xuanyu's sleeve and whispered, "Why do I feel like something's off today? Teacher Nanas mood seems a little strange."
Lan Xuanyu was also puzzled and said, "Uncle Le's mood is also a bit off. It's different from usual. He always looks calm and collected, but today he seems a little anxious." This anxiety was evident even during forging.
Bai Xiuxiu said, "They actually look quite compatible, and walking together, they seem harmonious."
At this moment, Nana and Mister Le were walking behind, while Lan Xuanyu was being pulled by Bai Xiuxiu to walk in front. However, Nana and Mister Le always kept a certain distance from each other.
