Chapter 34: Battle of the Night, Forging of Premium-Grade Equipment!

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation  Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“I don’t know. In any case, the competition will be held in a week’s time. I wonder what kind of equipment Wu Mo will forge.”

“I suspect that the equipment he forges won’t be able to pierce through the Soft Golden Silk Armor. It’s a Premium-grade armor. There shouldn’t be more than three students in our academy who can forge Premium-grade equipment!”

The discussion among the crowd became increasingly intense, to the point that even Zhou Yan was alarmed. She had to use her communication software during her break time to stop inappropriate remarks in the group chat.

Seeing that they were not allowed to speak, the students in the learning group started discussing in their private chat groups.

For a moment, Wu Mo’s name reverberated throughout the entire Divine Arms Academy. However, the student’s evaluation of Wu Mo was mostly negative.

After all, Wu Mo’s reputation had not been the greatest. Now that he was facing Unique Treasure Hall, how could Wu Mo possibly be a match for a Five-star blacksmith with his skills?

Furthermore, the other party had already made the Soft Golden Silk Armor. Yet, Wu Mo still dared to agree to this bet in front of the media cameras.

In their view, Wu Mo was overestimating himself and bringing shame to the Divine Arms Academy!

All kinds of public opinions and rumors were fermenting in the academy, while the main character was sleeping soundly.

Wu Mo lay sprawled on the bed in his single dormitory bedroom, and only the sound of his breathing could be heard.

At that moment, the screen of his phone, which he had casually tossed aside, suddenly lit up.

A message from Jiang Mengyao appeared.

“Wu Mo, how did you get involved in the conflict between the two chambers of commerce? News of the competition between them are already on the portal, and many people are talking about you online.

“What were you thinking? Can you tell me anything?”

Right then, Jiang Mengyao was standing by the window. She was holding her phone with both hands and staring at the screen, hoping to get a reply from Wu Mo.

However, she did not get a reply after a long time. She could not help but feel a little disappointed.

She slowly raised her head and looked at the male dormitory building across the field, where Wu Mo was.

Looking at the tightly shut door and the students walking in and out of the corridor, Jiang Mengyao’s expression was filled with worry.

“Wu Mo… You’ve changed so much in the past few days. You’re so mysterious that it’s hard to understand!”

Jiang Mengyao nodded slightly and sighed in a voice that only she could hear.

A few birds flew across the sky just as time flew by between her fingers. In the blink of an eye, it was already ten in the evening.

That was when a young man in a blue delivery uniform walked up to the third floor carrying a plastic box.

He stopped at the entrance of Room 307 in the Divine Arms Academy’s male dormitory.

Then, he put down the plastic box and knocked on the door a few times.

At present, the corridor lights were the only source of illumination in the entire dormitory building. It was dark outside, but the stars hung around the moon, making the dark sky seem less monotonous.

About half a minute later, Room 307’s door was opened, and Wu Mo walked out in some sportswear.

“Mr. Blacksmith, these are the materials you ordered over the phone from Treasure Pavilion. Please sign the delivery form,” the delivery man, whose skin was slightly yellowish, said respectfully.

Wu Mo opened the box to take a look. After finding that the materials were complete, he signed the form and moved the items inside.

“Treasure Pavilion found the materials quite fast. It took them less than half a day.”

Wu Mo sat on the couch and looked at the many materials on the coffee table. A satisfied smile soon formed on his face.

He had woken up at five o’clock in the evening. After eating dinner, he called Manager Gao and told him the materials he needed.

After all, when he accepted the challenge, Manager Gao had said that as long as he could win, he could choose any of the precious materials in Treasure Pavilion.

It would be a pity if he did not make use of that.

In the afternoon, Wu Mo had listed seven or eight materials worth more than ¥2,000,000. He assumed that Treasure Pavilion would not be able to collect them in a short time.

But now, it seemed that Treasure Pavilion had quite a rich collection because some of the materials listed by Wu Mo were very rare. Even the system’s points store clearly stated that he could only make an exchange for them once a month.

Despite that, Treasure Pavilion still successfully collected all of them. That surprised Wu Mo, and his view and perception of Treasure Pavilion rose to a higher level.

He lay on the couch and stretched. Looking at the white ceiling, Wu Mo made a decision in his heart.

Preparations for the rough casting and strengthening materials were basically settled. He would execute the rough casting for his equipment tonight.

Once his plans were set, Wu Mo sat up straight and began to stabilize his mind. Soon, his consciousness blurred, and all the sounds around him disappeared in the next second.

Wu Mo opened his eyes in the Forging Space and cleaned the workbench in front of him. He was ready to start working on the preliminary cast.

First, he spread out the design drawings for the cloak, which he had completed in the morning, on the workbench. Then, he moved all the materials that he had requested from Treasure Pavilion to the huge furnace.

He could observe from the mouth of the furnace that the flames within were rising and gradually turning dark red. Obviously, the temperature had reached its peak.

Wu Mo did not hesitate and threw all the materials into the furnace.

The Dust-purifying Stone and Qilin Grass were instantly swallowed by the flames. Under the intense high temperature, the pale green Qilin Grass instantly turned into a pool of liquid. The Dust-purifying Stone quickly collapsed as well, and the energy produced became more concentrated.

Next, Wu Mo focused his attention on the condensing array. He threw all the materials he needed into the furnace again. At the same time, he manipulated the collapsing Dust-purifying Stone and the pale green medicinal liquid to mix them together. Then, he raised the temperature of the furnace again as the medicinal liquid seeped into the Dust-purifying Stone, which was the size of a fingernail.

The surface of the Dust-purifying Stone was like boiling water while the flame tempered it. Many pale green bubbles appeared on its surface. Not long after, it quietened down and finally turned into a translucent green jade.

Wu Mo was quick with his eyes and hands. After the jade stone was formed, he immediately lowered the temperature of the flame in the furnace.

After a period of low temperature stabilization, a light green oval jade that was as smooth as glass fell from the furnace’s mouth.

Wu Mo put on a pair of heat-insulating gloves and picked up the jade.

Looking at the perfect product that had been refined for the first time, Wu Mo’s heart was filled with slight excitement.

The jade was what needed to embed in the cloak later. Wu Mo refined it in advance to give the jade enough time to cool down and allow the energy inside to completely stabilize.

“Next, it’s time to make the cloak!”

Wu Mo placed the jade stone on the workbench and picked up the Green Leopard skin on the side.

The so-called Green Leopard skin was actually an external item that cultivators obtained after killing the leopard intruders.
