Chapter 234 The New Black Shadow Corps, the Craftsman Shadow Corps
After the melee format is determined, the finals, which originally took a few days to end, will compete for the final champion tomorrow.
A soul emperor appeared on the stage of the elite competition, which was unprecedented.
It has never happened before that a one-on-one knockout match was temporarily changed to a melee format.
This matter has spread throughout Wuhun City, and then spread from Wuhun City to nearby cities. It spread to ten, then to hundreds, and finally it became known to the world.
In just one day, what happened in Wuhun City had already spread to Gengxin City, the capital of blacksmiths in the Star Luo Empire.
In Gengxin City.
A certain blacksmith shop.
Not all blacksmiths are ordinary people. There are many blacksmiths who are soul masters. However, martial souls and soul skills focus on developing forging techniques, so they are much weaker than battle soul masters in terms of strength.
A soul master blacksmith like this not only pays attention to the news of the blacksmith world, but also likes to inquire about the changes in the soul master world.
The Elite Tournament is the largest soul master competition in the continent.
During the first qualifying match, these blacksmiths heard that a soul emperor with a ten thousand year fourth soul ring appeared in the elite competition.
After several months of competition, the Soul Emperor was so powerful that the Wuhun Palace temporarily changed the competition system and added a new restriction to the contestants of future elite competitions: Soul masters with soul power of level 60 or above, regardless of whether Whether you have obtained the sixth soul ring or not, regardless of your age, you are not allowed to participate.
Clang clang clang.
Continuous sounds of metal rustling came from the blacksmith shop. About ten blacksmiths were making weapons and armor in front of their respective stoves.
After work, the blacksmiths talked and laughed. Although it was hard work, they also enjoyed it.
A middle-aged blacksmith wearing overalls swung a forging hammer. Using his strength, he swung the hammer several times in succession and hit the fine iron on the stove six times. The metal clanged and sparks flew.
Another blacksmith put down his forging hammer and wiped his sweat.
"Hey, have you heard? The Elite Tournament will end tomorrow. It is said that the competition format will be changed to a melee, and the outcome will be determined by one game. I think back then, I was a level 37 soul master when I participated in the Elite Tournament. I have defeated several opponents who claim to be geniuses in the preliminaries, and I have thoroughly studied the competition system of the competition, but this is the first time I have heard of this melee competition system.”
"Old Huang, although we are soul masters, we have never participated in it. Can you tell us, what is the melee competition system?"
The blacksmith named Lao Huang thought for a while and responded: "Just like our blacksmith assessment, the blacksmiths participating in the assessment compete on the same stage, and whoever has higher forging skills will win. However, our blacksmith assessment only needs to reach a certain level. If you meet the requirements, you will be promoted to the blacksmith level. In the melee of the elite competition, only one team should win the final victory."
"I understand." The middle-aged blacksmith in overalls put down his forging hammer and said with a smile: "It's like looking for fine iron in a pile of scrap iron. Which piece of scrap iron can be hammered into fine iron, then that piece of scrap iron can be hammered into fine iron. Stay. The other scrap metal will be discarded directly."
Lao Huang took a big sip of water and nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, that's it."
"I also heard that the melee format is designed for Lu Bao. Otherwise, there is no way to fight the twenty-year-old Soul Emperor. How can this group of twenty-year-old players who may not even be Soul Emperors fight?"
"Oh, the soul master world is really full of talents. It is said that in addition to the soul emperor Lu Bao, there are three soul kings among the contestants of Wuhundian Academy. I think back then, when I participated in the elite competition, the contestant with the highest soul power It’s only level 49. It’s not as perverted as it is now.”
"Now that the soul master's training resources are better, his strength will naturally increase, unlike us blacksmiths. We have to find forging materials ourselves. And there are not many ways to acquire them. Except for our Gengxin City, there is basically nowhere to find it. A rare forging material."
"Yeah, who said that soul master is the most noble profession, and the blacksmith profession is hard. I should have listened to my mother's advice and entered the advanced soul master academy to study. Why did I have to follow my father as a blacksmith. As a result, I am now a blacksmith. The soul master is not very strong, and his forging level is only that of a blacksmith master. Neither side can benefit from it."
At this moment, Tang Hao and Tang San and his son passed by the blacksmith shop.
Listening to the conversation between several blacksmiths in the blacksmith shop, Tang San roughly guessed that Shrek Academy had been eliminated and missed the finals.
Lu Badan's strength actually caused the finals to temporarily change the format?
Now every city on the mainland can hear Lu Hao's reputation and his own notoriety.
Thinking of this, Tang San gritted his teeth and clenched his fists. He had originally planned to wait for the Blue Silver King to help him awaken the Blue Silver Emperor's martial spirit, then secretly return to Shrek Academy, participate in the finals with his friends, and win the championship for Shrek Academy.
But he never thought that that damn Blue Silver King not only failed to help him awaken the Blue Silver Emperor martial spirit, but also swallowed up his own Blue Silver Emperor bloodline.
Now Tang San has completely lost his mother's Blue Silver Grass martial spirit bloodline, and his appearance and figure have become like his father's, like a rough man, with a broken body that can easily collapse, giving people a sense of premature aging. It felt like outsiders couldn't tell that he was only fourteen years old.
Tang Hao said calmly: "Xiao San, walk faster. It's not far from the Central Market. That's where all the blacksmiths do business. The forging materials are far rarer than the soul master's training resources. Walk slowly. Maybe you want to The things will be bought by people.”
Hearing his father's urging, Tang San, who was following behind him, quickened his pace, ran to his father's side, and asked, "Dad, will Gengxin City really have the materials needed for hidden weapons?"
Tang Hao shook his head, "Gengxin City is known as the capital of metals and a gathering place for blacksmiths. Most of the best and rare forging materials are produced in this city. If they are not available here, then they will not be available in other cities. Don't talk nonsense. .Hurry up and get on your way."
Tang San has been with Tang Hao since he separated from Shrek's friends.
Many things happened to the father and son. First, Tang San mistakenly ate his mother, and then Tang Hao suffered from the backlash of the mixed poison, which caused him to become insane and hallucinate. He mistakenly regarded Tang San as his wife, and his bestiality came out, and he brutally attacked Tang San. He vented his longing for his wife for many years.
However, Tang Hao lost that memory and had no idea that he had done such a thing to his son. Tang San also didn't know that the special bluesilver grass he ate was his mother, so he could live together like a normal father and son.
The Dark Blue Silver King drained the Blue Silver Emperor's bloodline from Tang San's body, dashing Tang San's hope of becoming stronger. Now it is impossible to awaken the Blue Silver Emperor's martial spirit, and the Clear Sky Hammer has turned into the useless martial spirit Haotian. Bamboo shoots, the only way he could think of to become stronger was to specialize in Tang Sect's secret arts and Tang Sect's hidden weapons.
Forging a peerless hidden weapon is currently the only way Tang San can improve his own strength.
Fortunately, his father is not only the world-famous Haotian Douluo, but also a famous divine craftsman.
With his father's help, Tang San firmly believed that he would be able to create the Tang Sect's unique hidden weapon!
The blueprint for making the hidden weapon has been redrawn, and what needs to be done now is to collect the forging materials required for the hidden weapon.
Tang San secretly made up his mind that after developing countless Tang Sect hidden weapons, he must return to Shrek Academy. I wonder what happened to his friends?
Xiao Wu, where are you now? How are you doing?
No matter where you are, I will go find you when I have the ability to protect you!
Gengxin City, located within the Star Luo Empire, is the only metal city in the continent that is famous for its metals.
There is a large amount of rare metal production here, and it is a must-go place to buy various forging materials.
Tang San never expected that Douluo Continent would have such a city that was convenient for blacksmiths. According to his father, most of the best and rare forging materials came from this city.
The Blacksmiths Association, whose status in the blacksmith world is comparable to Wuhun Palace, is located in the central area of Gengxin City, where a large number of outstanding blacksmiths gather.
The purpose of this trip is that Tang Hao first wants to take Tang San to every mall or shop that sells forging materials in Gengxin City, collect the required forging materials, and then invite the blacksmiths from the Blacksmith Association to forge hidden weapons together in the name of the master craftsman. of parts.
Tang San was entirely responsible for the final assembly, so there was no need to worry about the blacksmith secretly learning how to make hidden weapons.
However, after the Blue Silver King devoured Tang San's Blue Silver Emperor bloodline, Tang San's Najie soul guide also disappeared. Before buying the forging materials, Tang Hao had to buy one for Tang San or grab one that could be stored. A high-quality soul guide made from a large amount of forging materials.
But this is Gengxin City after all, and the business is all about blacksmithing. How can there be any high-quality soul tools for sale?
In desperation, Tang Hao used strong methods to buy two ring soul tools from a rich man for Tang San to use.
Tang San put these two ring soul guides on the index and middle fingers of his left hand respectively. With just a light touch of his thumb, he could take out what he wanted immediately. In the future, the forged hidden weapon will be in the ring on the index finger, and the forging material will be in the ring on the middle finger.
After getting the storage soul guide, Tang Hao took Tang San to the largest shopping mall in Gengxin City, called Metal Mall.
Walking into the mall, Tang San immediately smelled the smell of various metals. For someone who had lived in a blacksmith shop since he was a child, this smell was not unfamiliar. Instead, it reminded him of the life of blacksmithing with his father when he was a child.
Tang San thought to himself, if he was not a soul master, and if his father was not Haotian Douluo, it would be great to spend the rest of his life as an ordinary blacksmith in the Holy Soul Village. No, if that happens, I won't be able to meet Xiao Wu and Shrek's friends!
Tang Hao took Tang San to a shop selling various metal materials, but the shop was empty and didn't look like a business at all.
Tang San stared at all the empty boxes placed in confusion, and asked curiously: "Shopkeeper, may I ask, do you sell metal materials here?"
"Yes. But it's sold out now." The store owner responded.
"Sold out?" Tang San was puzzled, "Your store is not small. Have all the metal materials sold been taken away?"
"Yes. It's not just me. All the forging materials in the entire metal mall's stores have been purchased." The store owner said while closing the stall: "I advise you two to go to other malls to have a look. If you are slow, say Maybe the forging materials from other malls have been packaged again."
Tang San glanced at his father, Tang Hao's face was expressionless.
"Store. Who bought all the materials in the mall?" Tang San said thoughtfully: "This must be a big expense, right? Is it the Blacksmiths Association?"
The shop owner thought for a moment and nodded affirmatively, "It's Mr. Silong from the Blacksmith Association, bringing a black-haired young man here to buy materials. It is said that the black-haired young man is a rich man from Tiandou City. He is indeed a rich man. If you can buy all the forging materials in the metal mall, what are you if you are not a wealthy person? Anyway, the owners of the entire mall have made a lot of money today."
"Coming from Tiandou City, a black-haired young man?" Perhaps due to a psychological shadow, Lu Bao's appearance immediately appeared in Tang San's mind.
However, since Lu Baoli was so strong, he should have spent most of his time on training, unlike himself, who had no time to prepare antidotes and poisons, and forge various hidden weapons of the Tang Sect.
Therefore, Tang San believed that Lu Bao was not outstanding in other aspects except fighting. How could he be as proficient in refining medicine, poison, and forging as he was?
Lu Boliang didn't know about forging, so why did he buy these forging materials?
Could it be that he was trying to get ahead of himself and take away what he wanted in advance?
Although Tang San was very hostile to Lu Baoliang, he knew that Lu Baoliang was a very motivated person, and it would be better to spend more time on cultivation instead of doing such boring things.
Moreover, how did Lu Baoli know that he wanted to collect forging materials to create Tang Sect hidden weapons?
How could Lu Baoli, who was competing in Wuhun City, suddenly appear in Gengxin City?
Thinking of this, Tang San's doubts were eliminated. Maybe a certain businessman in Tiandou City discovered the business opportunity, so he came to Gengxin City, bought up the metal materials in the city, and sold them at a high price.
"Dad, why don't we go to a nearby store and have a look?" Tang San looked at Tang Hao.
"Go to the Blacksmith Association. If you want any materials, just ask Lou Gao for them. If he doesn't give them to you, let him suffer a little." As he spoke, Tang Hao turned and left.
Tang San followed closely. He remembered his father saying that Lou Gao was the president of the Blacksmiths Association and one of the three master craftsmen on the mainland today.
"."
Gengxin City, a shop selling forging materials.
A middle-aged man wearing heavy armor and a young man with black hair were at the door of the store. It was these two who bought all the metal materials in the metal mall.
The middle-aged man's name is Si Long, one of the direct disciples of Lou Gao, the president of the Blacksmith Association, and the black-haired young man is Lu Bao.
After the one-on-one elimination match has been changed to a melee format, the final melee of the finals will begin tomorrow.
During this period of time, Lu Baoliang did not go to the Enshrinement Hall with Qian Renxue to practice dual cultivation. Instead, he took advantage of his free time to teleport to Gengxin City.
When he ordered the Dark Blue Silver King to drain the Blue Silver Emperor's bloodline from Tang San's body, he also took away Tang San's Ring Soul Guidance Device.
It was also at that time that Lu Bao Bao obtained twenty of Tang San's blueprints for making hidden weapons.
He wanted to make these Tang Sect hidden weapons and use them for the Ghost Soldiers, which would greatly improve the combat capabilities of each Ghost Soldier.
Lu Liang came to Geng New City for two purposes.
First, purchase the forging materials from every shop in Gengxin City to use them in the future to create the best armor and Tang Sect hidden weapons needed by various ghost soldiers.
Second, go to a cemetery in Gengxin City, where there is a church-like building called the tomb hall, also known as the mourning hall.
In the world of blacksmiths, the tomb hall has the same status as the Douluo Hall, and outstanding blacksmiths from all ages are buried underneath.
Among them were the three dead who were at the level of master craftsmen, and many blacksmiths who had developed peerless weapons. They were the pride of the blacksmith world and had made great contributions to the military weapons of the empire.
After acquiring the forging materials, Lu Baoli will use space teleportation to sneak under the tomb hall, seal all the shadows of the buried blacksmith's corpses into the shadow tomb realm, and then select the best blacksmith among them as the general of shadow. , and created the Artisan Film Group.
