Chapter 11 Ninth Grade Swordsmith

In the yard, Wei Yi was polishing and polishing the blade of the sword with house stones.

After some polishing, he put down the house stone in his hand, picked up the sword, and looked at it with satisfaction.

The entire body of the sword is as clean as a mirror, which can shine on people, and with a slight movement, the cold light suddenly appears, and the vigor is overwhelming.

From the appearance alone, it already gives people an indestructible edge and sharpness.

Tap lightly with your fingertips, and there will be a crisp humming sound, which is very pleasant to hear.

Wei Yi tore off a section of hair, put it on the blade of the sword, and blew gently, and the hair was cut off by the blade.

It's really blowing hair and breaking hair, extremely sharp.

Afterwards, he took the wooden stake that he had cut off with the sword before, fixed it again, cut it down with a sword, and the wooden stake broke with a sound.

Although last time it was also a sword that easily cut off the stake.

But only Wei Yi himself knows best that the feeling of cutting the stake this time is completely different from before.

It seemed to be able to feel the resistance and hardness of wood before.

But now when the sword goes down, it seems to be chopping on tofu, and it doesn't even feel head-on.

Seeing Wei Yi testing the new sword, the stone who was sharpening the kitchen knife also ran over.

He also participated in the forging process of this sword.

It is obvious that Wei Yi used many methods this time, which are different from before.

So Shitou was also full of anticipation for the sword forged by Wei Yixin.

Feeling the sharpness of this sword, Wei Yi's sense of anticipation also increased a lot.

From his second uncle's toolbox, he took out the special metal rod, also known as the sword-testing rod.

This sword-testing stick is about the thickness of two fingers, like iron or stone, and its texture is extremely hard.

When ordinary swords slashed on it, there was only the sound of metal and iron clashing, but it was difficult to leave any scars on it.

If you use too much force, it may even break the sword directly.

This sword testing stick was used by Wei Tieshan to test the ultimate performance of the sword he made.

Now the deepest sword mark on it is less than one centimeter.

It should be left behind from the sharpest sword he ever forged.

"According to what Second Uncle said, if you can cut half an inch deep on this metal rod, you can almost reach the quality of a treasured sword."

"I don't know if my sword can reach it?"

Wei Yi was looking forward to it.

On the side, Shitou blinked his black eyes and looked at Wei Yi curiously.

He also knew something about this metal rod.

I have seen Wei Tieshan test the ultimate performance of the sword with this metal rod.

So I'm also very curious about how deep the gap that Wei Yi's forged sword can leave on this metal rod.

With a serious expression, Wei Yi fixed the metal rod on a wooden pier.

Then he held the sword in both hands and raised it high.

brush--

Cut off with a sword.

Clang——

Accompanied by the sound of the sword, Wei Yi only felt the sword shake suddenly, and there seemed to be a spark flashing in his eyes.

At the same time, the metal rod unexpectedly snapped and split into two.

And one is divided into two, and there is a wooden pier under the metal rod.

Seeing this scene, Shi Shi's eyes widened and his mouth opened wide.

He looked at the sword in Wei Yi's hand in disbelief.

Although he guessed that Wei Yi's sword might be sharper than the one he forged last time.

But I never thought that I could cut off the extremely hard metal rod with a single sword.

Wei Yi also looked at the broken metal rod and wooden pier in surprise, and he was also full of surprises in his heart.

The immediate result also far exceeded his own expectations.

Wei Yi immediately bent down to pick up the broken metal rod, the incision was also smooth and smooth.

On the other hand, the blade in his hand was still intact.

"It's done, I really succeeded!" Wei Yi's heart was beating fiercely, and he was also very excited.

He knew very well that he could easily cut off the metal rod.

The sword I made by myself has definitely reached the quality of a jeweled sword.

In other words, as long as he passes the assessment of the Swordsmith Division, he can become a real ninth-rank swordsmith.

This day came much sooner than he expected.

"I really didn't expect that Gan would have the level of a ninth-rank swordsmith at the second level!" Wei Yi was pleasantly surprised.

But after thinking about it, this system can turn ordinary skills into supernatural powers.

Now he is only a ninth-rank swordsmith, and there will be seventh-rank and fifth-rank swordsmiths after that...

In the future, there may be even more powerful skills above the first rank.

It is not impossible to forge magical weapons.

Although it is only a small achievement now.

But for Wei Yi, there is still something to be happy about.

"Brother, brother, you, you actually cut off that metal rod!" Shi Shi was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.

Wei Yi smiled, walked over immediately, and touched Shi Shi's head.

Immediately, his fluffy hair was rubbed into a chicken coop.

"How about it, your eldest brother is amazing!" Wei Yi said with a smile.

"Yeah, it's amazing!" Shitou nodded heavily, looking at Wei Yi with eyes full of admiration.

After a long time, Wei Yi cleaned and tidied up his appearance, and prepared to go to the Sword Casting Division to sign up for the assessment.

But just as he was about to walk out of the courtyard, he saw his aunt came back.

"Auntie, you are back, how is Second Uncle?" Wei Yi asked hastily.

"Your second uncle is very good, and he is very happy to know that you have inherited his mantle!" Wei Xue said with a forced smile.

Wei Yi knew how hard his aunt was feeling, so he probably wouldn't have had a good time in that cell.

"By the way, Yi'er, do you want to go out?" Wei Xueshi changed the subject.

"Oh, yes, I'm going to register at the Sword Making Department and take the assessment." Wei Yi said truthfully.

"Huh?" Wei Xue was stunned for a moment.

"Master, elder brother, the sword he just forged cut off that metal rod!" Shitou also ran over and said excitedly.

Wei Xue didn't know what the stone meant.

But it is generally guessed that Wei Yi should have created a very powerful sword.

"Auntie, I should have reached the level of a ninth-rank swordsmith!" Wei Yi said confidently.

Hearing Wei Yi's words, Wei Xue's eyes widened slightly, and his pupils also brightened a little.

"Really, really?" Wei Xue couldn't believe it.

To become a ninth-rank swordsmith is Wei Tieshan's lifelong wish.

For this goal, he has worked hard for many years, but he still has not been able to achieve it.

"It should be close to ten!" Wei Yi said without humility.

He also hoped that this good news would make his aunt feel better.

"Okay, okay, Yi'er, you are so amazing, Auntie is so proud of you!" Wei Xue was so excited that she couldn't help herself.

It seems that the haze in my heart has dissipated a lot.

If Wei Yi became a ninth-rank swordsmith, his identity and status would be different.

In addition to being able to make a lot of money, solve the financial problems of the family.

It may also make friends with some dignitaries because of this, and maybe there will be a chance to rescue Wei Tieshan in the future.

"Auntie, you should rest first, I'll go to the Sword Casting Division to sign up, and I'll be back soon!" Wei Yi said.

"it is good!"

The Sword Casting Division is located in the inner city, close to the government office of Qingzhou Prefecture.

Throughout the Great Yan Dynasty, there were a total of twelve sword casting divisions, all of which were under the management of the Weapons Bureau.

Most of the sword casting divisions in various places are managed by one envoy and three to five officials.

Responsible for the assessment and registration of swordsmiths, the collection of swordsmith taxes, and the recruitment of personnel in wartime.

Manage Wang Zhuyin, as well as the daily supervision of swordsmiths.

All the swordsmiths who passed the examination will be registered in the register, leaving files for easy management.

At the same time, you will receive the exclusive Wangzhu seal and enjoy many rights.

For example, the right to sell swords, the right to buy refined iron and some special ores.

You can even buy coal at a low price.

However, a ninth-rank swordsmith also needs to pay a jeweled sword to the swordsmith department every month as a swordsmith tax.
