Chapter 1482: Forging Success (Please Subscribe)_1

As soon as these words came out, the faces of these students darkened, and the leading male student gritted his teeth and said, "You... you guys, this is banditry, acting recklessly just because the academy is powerful! Are you even worthy of being Shrek Academy students!"

"Exactly, without Shrek Academy, you guys are nothing!"

"I used to regret not being able to get into Shrek Academy, but now I see, there's no need. Even the lowest of academies have students with better quality than yours!"

"Shrek Academy is nothing but a bunch of bandits, right? Relying on its long history, it blocks other academies from participating in the exhibition, disgusting!"

Xie Xie sneered, "Heh, saying that without the academy we are nothing, fart out your nonsense!"

Seeing that his goal had been achieved, the leading student mocked, "Hmph, if you have the guts, don't use the academy to pressurize us; let's have a one-on-one manly battle!"

Xu Xiaoyan snorted with laughter, covering her face, "What kind of ridiculous duel is this, a one-on-one manly battle? I bet you guys are just little sprouts, right?"

"Little sprouts? What does that mean?"

However, Gu Yue and Ye Xinglan, completely clueless, looked on with puzzled faces, waiting for her explanation!

Seeing their expressions, Xu Xiaoyan whispered a few words into their ears...

In an instant, Gu Yue and Ye Xinglan's cheeks turned red and hot as if they were on a frying pan...

Ye Xinglan said irritably, "Xu Xiaoyan, you shouldn't say things like that!"

Gu Yue also murmured shyly, "Hmm!"

Little sprouts, referring to a man's...

Xu Lizhi scratched his head, curious, "Sister Xinglan, Gu Yue, what did Xiao Yan tell you? Your cheeks are as red as if you have a fever!"

Who knew, both Ye Xinglan and Gu Yue scolded in unison, "None of your business!"

How could they even begin to explain such a thing?

And why did Xu Xiaoyan know so much about this stuff?

The opposite lead male student, realizing he was being ignored, bellowed, "Hey, you guys, do you even take us seriously at all?"

Xie Xie impatiently replied, "Not taking you seriously, should we be stepping on you instead? Now, what's this one-on-one manly battle you're speaking of?"

Dealing with these fledglings was surely a piece of cake, right?

The former raised the corner of his mouth confidently, "We might not be a match for you Shrek students in combat, but if you dare, let's compete in forging!"

Forging, that was his showpiece!

Xie Xie was startled, and asked seriously, "Um, just a question, what level of Forging Master are you?"

The male student didn't speak, but his cronies patted their chests proudly, "You asked the right question, our boss is a level 4 blacksmith, and we're top-notch in our entire academy!"

"If you know what's good for you, you'll apologize now, and skedaddle quickly, otherwise, don't blame us for not showing mercy!"

"That's right! It's not too late to apologize now!"

Xie Xie's expression instantly froze, thinking to himself, "Level 4 blacksmith, it seems this guy isn't as useless as he looks."

In the aspect of forging, he truly wasn't an opponent!

With this in mind, he glanced towards Gu Yue and others, throwing them a look...

And naturally, this gesture was seen by the provocative male student, who mocked, "Tsk, as I thought, Shrek students are brainless, only knowing how to bury your heads in cultivation, probably not even understanding what a blacksmith is, right?"

"So..."

Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Gu Yue's icy voice, "We accept this challenge, but it will be me who competes against you!"

She herself was also a level 4 blacksmith, and even a bit ahead in understanding, so the chances of winning were not low!

When the male student got a good look at Gu Yue, he swallowed quietly and coughed, "Sending a woman? Fine! Just hope you don't go back on your word!"

Such a beautiful female student, and she's from Shrek Academy, damn it!

Xu Xiaoyan directly retorted, "Don't worry, we at Shrek Academy never go back on our word. As for you guys, you'd better prepare for how you'll beg for mercy after you lose!"

As she finished speaking, Xu Xiaoyan turned to glance at Gu Yue, whispering, "Gu Yue, are you confident? If not, let's pull out!"

The others also cast worried glances...

The competition hadn't even started yet, and if they just found some excuse to slip away, no one would dare to say a thing!

Gu Yue shook her head, her eyes blazing as she said, "It's okay, I know my own limits!"

...

Meanwhile, in the forging room, the entire space was quiet...

Because Tang Wulin was in the most critical part of the forging process, and any disturbance could lead to failure!

Thus, the acting presidents who were high-level blacksmiths knew they should keep quiet at such a crucial time and just watch silently!

Tang Wulin's forging hammer swung without the slightest pause, the entire process smooth as flowing water!

At a glance, it looked as if this step posed no difficulty for him!

Finally, after enduring the sounds of hammering for two hours, Tang Wulin struck the last blow and finished the forging session!

Almost the moment he released the forging hammer, he collapsed onto the ground, seemingly drained, gasping for breath with great gulps...

Deep down he thought, "Is this still too forced for me?"

Even though he had successfully completed the forging, the toll it took on his body meant he would have to rest for at least a day or two to recover!

The acting presidents who had been watching him intently were suddenly jolted awake...

"It's... over?"

"Yes... it seems so? The kid has stopped forging!"

"Incredible, watching him forge was like watching ourselves!"

As they watched Tang Wulin's forging, each of them had subconsciously put themselves into his shoes, so even after it ended, they were still a bit dazed...

As for Mu Chen and Zhen Hua, who reacted a bit slower, they immediately flashed to the front of the forging table...

Seeing the finished item on top, Zhen Hua said joyously, "He really did it! Let me test the quality."

After saying this, he extended a finger, injected his Soul Power, and flicked it forcefully...

"Hummm–"

The clear sound of ringing metal spread through the air...

Zhen Hua's face changed from surprise to ecstasy. "Top quality! This forged item is top quality! Mu Chen, come and see, isn't this top quality?"

With the answer already in his heart, Mu Chen couldn't help but let a few tears escape from the corners of his eyes and nodded, "It is top quality! Indeed it is top quality!"

Seeing the two men moved at the side, a weak Tang Wulin said in a low voice, "Teacher, President, could you help me get up?"

No sooner had he spoken than Mu Chen and Zhen Hua came back to their senses and hurried to help Tang Wulin up from the ground...

Zhen Hua praised him generously, "Good lad, I really wasn't wrong about you. Not only did you succeed in forging, but you produced a top-quality item too! Even if those old guys over there tried, they might not be able to do this!"

Mu Chen also nodded, "Wulin, you are truly my disciple, you've really made your teacher proud!!"

Tang Wulin managed to show a strained smile, "Really? That's good..."

After saying this, he felt his vision go dark, and he lost consciousness...
