I became a god through frontier slaughter, and I crushed the academy's prodigies!

This world is crazy.

Zhou Xuan felt as if his brain had completely shut down.

He watched as Master Guhe, who had been as volatile as a ferocious beast just moments before, now smiled like a blooming chrysanthemum, his wrinkles crinkling together.

The root of all these changes was simply the small golden flame between Shen Tian's eyebrows.

Zhou Xuan couldn't believe it.

That general who, in the occupied Jiangcheng area, cleaved a mountain in two with a single strike, slaughtered three fifth-tier beast kings, and was revered as a god by the three thousand soldiers of the Po Jun Division…

He was actually a weapon-making genius that even a national treasure-level master like Guhe coveted.

Either of these identities, taken individually, would be enough to make one a giant who could stir up the winds of change in the Dragon Kingdom in the future.

But now.

Some people have perfectly combined these two identities.

Moreover, this person is only seventeen years old!

Thinking of this, Zhou Xuan's heart began to pound uncontrollably.

ecstasy!

Unparalleled ecstasy!

This once again proves how wise and brilliant his decision to lower himself to curry favor with Shen Tian was!

Suck up to someone powerful?

Do not!

He didn't just grab a thigh, he grabbed an unprecedentedly huge leg!

Just as Zhou Xuan was lost in his own thoughts, Shen Tian, ​​who was the center of attention, finally spoke.

"What does it mean to join the Weaponsmithing Division?"

Upon hearing this, Master Guhe became even more invigorated.

The fact that he didn't refuse meant that Shen Tian was interested.

To be honest, Gu He was really worried that Shen Tian was the kind of crude and uncouth martial artist.

He enjoys fighting and killing.

come on!

Join us!

Join the glorious lineage of weapon forging!

Guhe roared madly inside.

Simultaneously.

He quickly explained, "Young man, I didn't mean the Heavenly Crafts Bureau, but the 'Weapon Casting Division Guild'."

"That is an organization different from official institutions. Its sole purpose is to inherit and develop the 'secret method of weapon forging'."

Guhe's eyes were filled with reverence and longing.

"In the union, there is no distinction between master and apprentice; all members address each other as fellow apprentices."

"Because we firmly believe that every weaponsmith's understanding and insights into the secret techniques are unique, and they all have the potential to push this craft to a whole new level."

"Therefore, there is no question of one teaching the other; we are simply equal communicators and pioneers."

Hearing these words, Chu Feng's eyes turned red.

Weapon Forger Guild!

Secret methods of weapon forging!

That was the ultimate palace he had always dreamed of!

In his life plan, he first had to become Master Guhe's most outstanding student, and then spend ten years gaining seniority in the Tiangong Division before he would have even the slightest chance of getting a glimpse into the secrets of weapon forging, and finally gain the qualification to be recommended to join the guild.

But now?

Shen Tian, ​​the "second-generation rich kid" whom he had always despised, did nothing.

Because of his exceptional talent, Master Guhe was willing to offer up the supreme weapon-forging secrets with both hands!

Faced with this olive branch that would drive any mentalist crazy, Shen Tian did not immediately agree.

He was thinking.

He hesitated.

Shen Tian was indeed thinking.

He had some interest in forging weapons, but it was just an interest.

If joining this so-called union would mean being bound by all sorts of rules or bearing some inexplicable responsibility, he would rather not join.

His core focus is always on kill count, the system, and becoming stronger without restraint.

Chu Feng watched anxiously from the side, wishing he could rush up and agree on Shen Tian's behalf.

Brother! Ancestor!

Do you know what you're hesitating about right now?

That's the fast track to heaven that can make you rise to the top in one step!

What are you still dawdling about?!

Gu He was an extremely astute person, and he saw through Shen Tian's thoughts at a glance.

Afraid that this once-in-a-lifetime treasure would get away, he quickly added:

"Don't worry, young friend!"

"Our Foundry Guild is the freest organization in the world, and we never interfere with any of our members' personal actions."

"If you want to join the Tiangong Division of the Tianshu Bureau, we welcome you. If you want to start your own company, we support you. Even if you do nothing and sleep at home every day, no one will care."

Guhe patted his chest and guaranteed.

"Our only request is that we work together to advance this craft."

That's all!

It turned out to be the case.

Shen Tian understood.

To put it simply, this is a top-tier academic exchange group for tech geeks.

There are no mandatory KPIs, no pressure from superiors or subordinates, it's all done purely out of love.

There is even the great spirit of open source.

This means that Shen Tian can get a secret technique for free.

That's acceptable.

"Okay, I'll join."

Shen Tian nodded.

"Very good!"

Gu He slapped his thigh excitedly, as if afraid that Shen Tian would change his mind, and turned around and rushed into the depths of the studio.

A moment later, he carefully walked out, holding a box made of an unknown metal.

"This is the original secret of weapon forging."

Guhe opened the box, and inside lay a rhombus-shaped crystal emitting a pale blue halo.

He handed the crystal to Shen Tian.

"Simply probe it with your mental energy, and you can read all the information inside."

Shen Tian reached out and took it.

The instant his fingertips touched that cold crystal.

A notification sound that only he could hear exploded in his mind.

【Ding! 】

[Special knowledge inheritance detected – "The Secret Method of Weapon Forging"!]

[System is recording...]

[Inclusion successful!]

[Note: Mystical techniques differ from martial arts skills; they have no ranks or proficiency levels.]

[The host does not need to consume kill points to upgrade the arcane technique level.]

[During forging, the host can choose to consume a certain amount of kill points to immediately complete a 100% perfect forging!]

Shen Tian's pupils suddenly contracted.

Can you do this?

He originally thought that learning the art of weapon forging would at most give him another way to make money or upgrade his equipment.

Moreover, Chu Feng had explained this to him on the way here.

Upgrading weapons requires weaponsmiths to expend a great deal of time and mental energy.

When you expend too much mental energy, you become irritable.

This is why Master Guhe doesn't upgrade weapons for ordinary people.

Time and mental energy are the most precious resources for a spiritual practitioner.

Given their innate talents, they need time to hone their mental strength and break through to higher realms.

If they invest their time in forging weapons, their spiritual development will stagnate.

This is a difficult choice between two options.

However, this feature of the system completely changed the nature of this technology.

This solved the problem that had plagued all weapon-making divisions.

100% Perfect Forging!

What does this mean?

There is no failure rate!

Ignoring technological barriers!

Furthermore, there is no need to endure a long period of time while waiting for weapon upgrades.

It's a bit like the game Shen Tian played in his previous life; all you need to do is click the upgrade button.

The weapon can be upgraded immediately.

Shen Tian gripped the crystal in his hand, feeling the new option that had appeared on the system panel, and his heart was filled with turmoil.

It seems I really made the right choice coming to Tianyun City.
