Chapter 51: With an Ulterior Motive

Hearing Xu Ning's words, or it could be said to be a question, Ye Zan stood in front and couldn't help laughing.

In fact, this kind of problem is very common even in the world of science and technology. When a new thing appears, it will always be rejected or even suppressed by those who stick to tradition.

For example, in the world of science and technology, the emergence of telephones, from the initial wired telephones to the later development of smart terminals, has never been less controversial in this process.

At first, some people lamented the disappearance of traditional letters, saying that young people don't even know the format of letters, but later they said that they bowed their heads, and said that the whole society has become indifferent.

For example, the emergence of online novels has made some traditional writers think that literature is desecrated and makes literature no longer noble.

The emergence of industrialized production made artisans feel that handicrafts were desecrated. Later, handmade products became a symbol of high-end. Is it not a manifestation of this idea?

However, this kind of topic has always been nothing to debate, because it is impossible to argue whether there is a right or wrong.

Nothing in the world is perfect, and both parties in the debate can always find a lot of shortcomings in each other and a lot of advantages in themselves.

However, since the other party asked, Ye Zan had no choice but to answer. After all, Xu Ning's question must also represent a considerable number of craftsmen.

"Many masters are overthinking. I heard that there are book printing offices in the secular world. Most of the carving craftsmen are illiterate. They just carve according to the shape of the characters. But do they say that they are blaspheming books? How would those books have spread without them?"

What Ye Zan said was just what he had seen and heard in the Tang Dynasty. In this secular world, the literacy rate is very low, so that many people in the work of printing books that deal with words are not literate at all.

Ye Zan used this as an example, but it fits the matter of refining artifacts very well. The design of magical artifacts is like books, and those craftsmen are like carvers. The worker just carved the board correctly, do you know what is written on it is very important?

From the point of view of the refining masters, it can be understood as emphasizing the importance of magic weapon design, or simply emphasizing the importance of these masters. Although what is being discussed now, what these craftsmen are doing is Ye Zan's magic weapon design, and has nothing to do with them.

However, Xu Ning didn't like this, snorted coldly, and said proudly: "How can the way of refining weapons be compared with worldly things? Does Elder Ye look down on the way of refining weapons?"

Ah! Ye Zan understood this time, this guy was looking for trouble.

When Mo Ru returned from the Golden Light Sect, he also mentioned to Ye Zan and the others about Ziyang Zhenjun's obstruction. He thought that this time the Ziyang Sect sent an envoy to congratulate him, and the incident would be over. Unexpectedly, Ziyangzong was waiting here. This was to provoke a conflict between the entire group of craftsmen and Yuqingzong.

Thinking of this, Ye Zan was naturally not polite, his face sank slightly, and he said with a sneer: "Master Xu, you keep talking about the way of refining weapons, and you want to represent all the refining masters in the Shenhua domain, and you must be the number one refining weapon in the world!" Man, that is really disrespectful."

As he spoke, Ye Zan cupped his fists and bowed firmly to Xu Ning.

If there is no front, Xu Ning will accept Ye Zan's salute. But with Ye Zan's previous words, Xu Ning would not dare to accept this gift, otherwise it would be tantamount to agreeing with Ye Zan's words, and he really considers himself the world's number one weapon refiner in the Shenhua domain.

Not to mention the number one craftsman in the world, Xu Ning is just a master craftsman, and in the entire group of craftsmen, at most, he belongs to the middle and lower levels.

So facing Ye Zan's gift, Xu Ning hurriedly stepped aside, and said with shame and annoyance on his face: "What is the meaning of Elder Ye!"

"Huh," Ye Zan stood up, looked at Xu Ning strangely and said, "I just want to ask, what is Master Xu's intention, I just express my admiration for the world's first person in refining weapons,

Why is Master Xu so panicked? "

"Elder Ye, don't learn the common methods of the market. I'm the one who forges weapons. Although I'm just a late learner, I don't allow others to desecrate this way." Xu Ning brought up this topic again.

Ye Zan shook his head helplessly, and said: "Master Xu believes that those who do not understand the way of refining weapons are desecrating the way of refining weapons. Then the same theory, if you use the way of refining weapons, Being slightly stronger than Master Xu, can it be considered that you, Master Xu, are also blaspheming the way of refining weapons?"

Ye Zan's statement is of course a bit of a sneaky change of concept, but the reasoning has been exhausted before, since Xu Ning doesn't agree, he can only crush it forcefully.

"Haha!" Hearing Ye Zan's words, Xu Ning laughed. What a joke, a kid at the Foundation Establishment Realm actually wants to compete with himself in refining weapons, and he is a majestic master of refining weapons at the Golden Core Realm. Even if one puts aside the identity of a master craftsman, what one can do in crafts with a cultivation base of the Golden Core realm alone is far from comparable to that of the Foundation Establishment realm.

Xu Ning didn't know that the base station and Qianli Transsion were created by Ye Zan, even though Ye Zan had always been involved in related matters. But after all, Ye Zan's cultivation base and age are flawed, and other people actually think the same way, thinking that behind Ye Zan, there should be a master craftsman, maybe it is the newly promoted primordial spirit.

In fact, not to mention outsiders, even Yu Qingzong, including Wu Changsheng and others, believed that the base station and Qianli Sound Transmission should be from the hands of Patriarch Xuanyuan.

"Elder Ye, don't make such jokes, otherwise I will think that you are really desecrating the way of refining weapons." Xu Ning didn't agree immediately, it's not that he didn't want to use his refining skills to crush Ye Zan , but gave Ye Zan another hat in advance.

"A joke? You will know what a joke is." Ye Zan casually picked up a teacup from the table next to him while talking. Then, under the gaze of everyone, Ye Zan flicked his ten fingers around the teacup, faintly forming a special rhythm.

At this moment, the entire hall was silent, and everyone looked at the teacup in Ye Zan's hand curiously. This is to refine the weapon on the spot! Some of these people are master craftsmen, and some have seen master craftsmen. Naturally, they can see what Ye Zan is going to do at a glance.

However, everyone knows that refining equipment has certain requirements for materials. Even if it is not promoted to a magic weapon in the future, the material is required to be strong enough to carry mana. But what Ye Zan used was just an ordinary teacup, which was not a good material for a magic weapon.

Ye Zan's speed was very fast, and he stopped after a while. Then he saw the teacup floating in the air, emitting a faint halo, and it turned out to be a magic weapon.

"Master Xu, do you want to try it?" Ye Zan pointed to the teacup in the air, and the teacup immediately floated towards Xu Ning.
