Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Chapter 165 Becoming a God?

After the ordeal with Gu You last time, she was able to control her temper in time. Although she still couldn't help it sometimes, it was much better than before.

As soon as Zheng Yiran left, Luo Guixing came over.

Luo Guixing looked at Gu You meaningfully, "There's plenty of time in the future!"

Gu You laughed, "There's plenty of time in the future. Take good care of that Yue Tian kid from your team."

"Yes, I will." Luo Guixing nodded solemnly.

"You've improved quite a bit." After Luo Guixing left, Gu You looked at Ye Xinglan.

"Of course," she said calmly.

"Are you angry?" Gu You asked.

"Why are you angry?" Ye Xinglan looked at Gu You with a puzzled expression.

Gu You stood up, facing the classmates who had scattered to the distance. His gaze swept over Wu Siduo, Luo Guixing, Xu Yucheng, Yang Nianxia, ​​and Zheng Yiran. Suddenly, Gu You's eyes turned a pale purple-gold, his pupils slightly narrowed, and a surge of powerful blood energy erupted from them. "If I win, from now on, nobody should waste their breath on me!"

Upon hearing this, the entire room fell silent. Gu You strode to the front of the classroom, and under the oppressive aura emanating from him, the students involuntarily made way for him.

Ye Xinglan's pupils widened slightly; at this moment, she finally understood. As long as one has the strength, all rumors and gossip will simply dissipate.

……

"What do you think?" Shen Yi sat comfortably on the sofa in his office, legs crossed, a half-smile on his face.

Wu Changkong remained expressionless. "Treat them the way the teachers treated us. Shrek Academy's teaching has always been known for its freedom, never stifling a child's nature. I only have one objection."

"What?" Shen Yi asked curiously.

Wu Changkong said, "This kind of confrontation is not enough pressure for Gu You."

"It's indeed not big enough." Shen Yi said thoughtfully, "How about this, when he fights, all the sixth-year students can use their battle armor, and when the team fights, there's no need to reduce the number of people."

Wu Changkong nodded. Even with this lineup, they still couldn't beat Gu You, but it could still be considered a minor battle.

Fighting is the best way to hone your skills.

It's also a good opportunity to see what progress Guyou has made over the years.

……

"Buzz—" A dazzling light rose, shining like jade.

Shock. Yes, only shock could describe Ye Xinglan's feelings at this moment. She truly never imagined that Gu You was so strong, and his forging talent was so monstrous.

After learning that Gu You studied blacksmithing, she asked him if he knew how to perform fusion forging. She hadn't believed that such a young blacksmith could do it, especially since he was a Soul Master with such high strength. But she truly hadn't expected it; she really hadn't expected Gu You to actually know it.

Moreover, she forged her favorite alloy metal, silver.

At this moment, Gu You's words truly overturned Ye Xinglan's understanding. Fusion forging—that was fusion forging! Even among level five blacksmiths, very few could complete fusion forging. This was because their energy was focused on practicing spirit forging; only after mastering spirit forging and reaching the level of a level six blacksmith would they begin to learn fusion forging.

This also means that Gu You is at least a level 5 blacksmith! What does that mean?

The rhythm and cadence of the forging process were something Ye Xinglan had never seen before, as if he had become one with the world of metal. The forging hammers in his hands were sometimes nimble and sometimes heavy, and the process of forging and melting was as smooth as flowing water, without the slightest hindrance.

"Let me test the fusion level." Gu You took out a small instrument. He got this thing from the Academy's Blacksmith Association. Although he said he got it for his own use, Feng Wuyu simply waved his hand, which was equivalent to giving it to him.

The instrument was placed close to the surface of the jade and silver. A beam of light swept across it, and soon a line of numbers appeared on the screen.

Upon seeing this line of numbers, Gu You's lips twitched slightly, and he sighed.

"Is it low? If the forging is successful, it should be at least 60%." Gu Yue said as she moved closer, but when she saw the number on the screen, she gasped in shock.

"Ninety-five..."

Yes, the fusion rate is 95%! This is the first time Guyou has achieved this kind of metal.

Ye Xinglan lost her composure and darted to Gu You's side, clearly seeing the number ninety-five.

"Why are you sighing about such a high degree of fusion?" Ye Xinglan said irritably.

Gu You smiled wryly, "It's high for you, but it's the lowest for me."

You're awesome!

Ye Xinglan rolled her eyes at him.

"It's mine now." Ye Xinglan slapped the jade silver with his palm without any politeness. The storage ring on his hand flashed and he put the jade silver into it.

"You're really not being polite," Gu Yue sneered.

Ye Xinglan acted as if she hadn't heard him, saying, "I'll pay you for the materials later."

"No need, it's free for you. I really liked what you said to that person today." Gu You's lips twitched slightly.

The 95% spirit-forged alloy is actually a very big dividing line. In the world of blacksmiths, 95% spirit-infused alloys are known as the foundation of divine alloys.

Among the known spirit alloys, those forged from two metals are considered the base, those forged from three are considered high-quality, those forged from four are considered top-quality, and those forged from five are considered sacred. Spirit alloys with more than five metals are extremely rare. A spirit alloy forged from five metals is comparable in value to a soul-forged metal, which shows its worth.

The maximum known number of alloys to be fused is eight, and the fusion becomes increasingly difficult and complex as you progress. No one has ever successfully fused an alloy of nine metals, although attempts have been made.

Throughout human history, seven master blacksmiths have stated that if they could successfully forge a spirit-infused alloy of nine metals, a divine alloy might be created. This divine alloy could potentially allow even the strongest warriors at the Limit Douluo level to advance further.

What is the next step after becoming a Limit Douluo? Legend has it that it's... a god!

Given the possibility of becoming a god, it's easy to imagine how precious a spirit alloy with a 95% fusion rate would be. Although the possibility of forging a divine alloy in the future is extremely slim, it is at least a possibility. It is precisely because of this possibility that spirit alloys with a fusion rate of over 95% are both extremely valuable and extremely rare.

Fusion forging differs from other forging methods; luck and opportunity play a significant role. Even a master craftsman cannot guarantee a fusion rate of over 95%. Their average fusion rate is simply higher than that of an average blacksmith.

"Don't think I'm taking advantage of you. I'm a Level 5 mecha builder." Ye Xinglan...
