Are You a Blacksmith? (2)

For the next two days, Zhang Wu Ji is busy handling the smelting process to extract the silver within Mineral Ore. The process is not challenging due to the low melting point of the silver, but additional effort is needed to remove the unused silica.

Luckily, the effect from his 1st-Tier Blacksmithing Compendium is carried forward for him to utilize them on smelting the 2nd-TIer materials. Although the influence wasn't as notable compared to when he extracted the 1st-Tier materials, it was still a great help.

And by using the Blacksmithing Hammer on the end product, Zhang Wu Ji process the material using a two-time melting process before pouring them into their respective 10 kilograms Casting Mold. Luckily, the step to separates the Silver Material to their individual class isn't required.

Due to the silver in each category possess a different preferable mine, the mineral ores he bought from Liu Xin Xin all contained Fool Silver, the weakest kind of silver among the three. This kind of surface silver can be easily found throughout the whole county.

But this did not cause the price to crumble. This is due to the lack of concentration inside the harvested Mineral Ores. And from all these difficulties, it forced the establishment to prefer purchasing them instead.

By relying on the effect given by the Blacksmithing Compendium, Zhang Wu Ji take his own time to see how good is his smelting capability without having the necessary knowledge manual. At the end of his second day, the five Spatial Stone amount of mineral ores is all processed into Fool Silver Ingots.

10kg Fool SIlver Ingot (13% Purity)

-Usage: to be smelted. The material can be cast into a different mold or hammered into the desired shape to create tools

-Melting Point: 1,000 Celsius

-Note: Fool Silver will not react with poison, making it unsuitable for poison testing. Fool Silver's durability will be reduced by 50% when crafted into a tool.

-Durability: 40/40

"Not bad at all, considering that actual silver in my former realm is very malleable. Still, no wonder they call this a Fool Silver. It was because of their unusual characteristics on disability to react with poison and the decreasing durability during crafting."

Luckily, as an Inner Qi Warrior, one will learn the trick to apply their Warrior Qi into the weapon to reduce the destructive forces applied to their tools. This allows the Fool Silver to become more durable against any damages. Furthermore, the Silver material is extremely comfortable with the existence of Warrior Qi, making it a suitable tool for those in Warrior Tier and above.

"Without the assistance from manuals with 2nd-Tier quality, it will be quite difficult for me to increase their Purity further. Looks like without the UPGRADE System, I'm barely a qualified profession master at all." Zhang Wu Ji smiled as he thinks about all his weaknesses.

To begin with, he's an empty book without any knowledge is written within. With a total of 423 days living as Zhang Wu Ji in this realm, he suffered many difficulties, although most of them failed to bring him down from where he stands now.

But still, when it comes to profound knowledge regarding the Continent, Cultivation, and Profession, he was still hovering in between the surface, and yet to went further. For him, increasing the amount of knowledge he absorbs from reading is essential, but the essential he needs come with the cost of QI Accumulating Pill.

Unlike the 1st-Tier book that treated like trash inside this state, the 2nd-Tier book is actually categorized as precious treasures that one will need to pay a minimal charge to take a look. Of course, copying the same manual is allowed, but some Manuals comes with additional profoundness inside of the book they wrote, where it will make no sense to those that copied the notes but not the profoundness.

Within the 500 kilograms of Mineral Ore, Zhang Wu Ji yield a total of 150 kilograms of Fool Silver Ingot in their 13% Purity. With fifteen Ingots in hand, it's worth a total of 15 Qi Accumulating Pills when he traded them to the people from Material Hall.

On the fourth day morning, Zhang Wu Ji paid a visit to the Material Hall and exchanged the ingots for fifteen Qi Accumulating Pills. With the pill in his hand, Zhang Wu Ji returned to Liu Xin Xin for few stacks of raw material. Although it wasn't weird to have a disciple coming here to purchase the raw materials, his next purchase is what puzzled Liu Xin Xin.

"Five sets of tools again? Did he break all of them through his lack of experience in handling them? This cannot be... Or else, how much can he earn from such a high cost of production?"

"Junior brother," Liu Xin Xin intend to correct him from the wastage path.

"Yes?" Zhang Wu Ji replied to this senior sister.

"Picking up the proper skills to process the ore and not recklessly preparing them is essential! I understand that you managed to refine fifteen ingots in their Military-Grade, but the cost of destroying five sets of tools is unheard before!"

"Wastage is the bane to a blacksmith in his path to success!" she said in a strict tone. Although it means additional profit to her effort, Liu Xin Xin isn't the kind of person that will covet small profit and ruining the others. In this discussed topic, she's someone with a proper morality and pride toward herself.

"Senior sister, Wu Ji doesn't mean it that way. I am trying to choose for a set of proper tool that fits all my requirement. I hope my action did not leave a poor impression to senior sister." Zhang Wu Ji bowed at the lady to express himself.

"Tell me, what kind of tools you need?" she offered him the chance to made a special request.

"Senior sister, Wu Ji is actually looking for some Tomb Silver..." since she already mentioned the offer, Zhang Wu Ji see no reason to reject her. But when he stated the Tomb Silver, Liu Xin Xin's expression changed to a dissatisfaction.

"Why Tomb Silver!" she shouted at Zhang Wu Ji loudly. The shout shocks the others shopping far from them, and made everyone turn their vision to where the two facing each another.

"That brat! How can he mention the forbidden word in front of Sister Liu!" Zheng Kai almost fainted after hearing that shout. If Liu Xin Xin came to his stall to reprimand him, what can he do? No matter what, she's still a cultivator in the 14th Stage of Inner Qi Warrior!

"Senior sister, please forgive junior for speaking something he shouldn't. Please accept this junior's apology." Zhang Wu Ji noticed her fury and quickly apologized for his mistake. And at this moment, he's did not know her well enough to understand the reason for her anger.

"Weakling like you should stop dreaming about Tomb Silver! What is so great about the treasure that will kill you the moment you're dealing with them?" she releases her anger using Zhang Wu Ji as the target. Without himself knowing, Zhang Wu Ji was there at the correct moment.

"Stupid! Idiot! Foolish! You say you will become the best blacksmith, while I am the best Smelting Producer. But you deceived my trust! You left me behind alone!" everything that kept within her heart is vent out at Zhang Wu Ji. Unconsciously, he becomes the replacement of the person she's blaming.

"Hoo... You left me... I'm all alone..." unexpected by everyone, the most heroic lady in this First Heaven Mountain can vent such a torturing experience that's been plaguing her heart for so long. After ten minutes of throwing a tantrum on the youth, she eventually relaxed.

"Tomb Silver is not something so easily obtained. Or else, they won't be the best in Silver Category." unconscious to even herself, she actually felt calmer than how it was. Of course, it comes with a little bit of embarrassment due to her earlier face expression when throwing a tantrum.

"Is there an issue that's been bothering Senior Sister? Can Wu Ji help?" Zhang Wu Ji asked. It may be dangerous to get the Tomb Silver, but he's not somebody without a background as well.

"The Tomb Silver's Mineral Ore can be mined in the Kings Graveyard. I will not put too much hope in getting the Mineral Ores because this area is swarming with Puppets infused with Negative Warrior Qi." Liu Xin Xin answered his question in a detailed manner, but she's yet to finish.

"Each of the Puppet Warrior strength is between 13th Stage to 19th Stage, just a little further to 20th Stage Inner Qi Soldier. As for the Tomb Silver's Mineral Ore, you don't need to search for them," she explained the situation to him accurately.

"Erm... Why I don't need to search for the Mineral Ores?" Zhang Wu Ji was puzzled by her words.

"The Tomb Silver comes in the form of graveyard's tombstone. All you need is to smash them into shattered bits and collect them," she answered him with a simple but accurate method.

"Smash... Their tombstone?" Zhang Wu Ji smiled awkwardly...

"Anyway, take these stuff and go. I'm closing my stall earlier today." Liu Xin Xin tossed the Spatial Stone at him and opened her palm wide and waits for her payment. After the transaction is complete, the two went on their own way, where Liu Xin Xin is heading to the Top Ten Disciple Residence and Zhang Wu Ji to his personal residence.

On the third day morning again, Zhang Wu Ji appeared in the Material Hall as usual, and this time, he exchanged a total of 33 Fool Silver Ingots with the staff before he returned to Liu Xin Xin's stall. But this time, instead of purchasing for some new tools, he exchanged twenty of the Accumulating Pills with twenty Spatial Stones full of Mineral Ores.

And before he left, Zhang Wu Ji returned the Casting Mold to her, stating that he got his own now. Although it wasn't something to be bothered, a puzzled expression came from Liu Xin Xin's face.

"How can he spend the same three days to refine ten Spatial Stone full of Mineral Ores? It was a tonne full! One Tonne!" Liu Xin Xin cannot believe the speed Zhang Wu Ji refined them, but if she knows that Zhang Wu Ji actually converted 5 of the 99% High-Tier Spirit-Grade Pure Iron into Casting Mold, her jaw will drop to the ground in an instant.

Luckily, this youth has no idea that the 99% Purity Iron can fetch a hefty price in the Material Hall's market due to their rarity. This is because, within the whole Middle South State, there's only a total of five 2nd-Tier Early Blacksmiths possess the skill to smelt such a metal!

And this five 2nd-Tier Early Blacksmiths belonged to the One Religion and Three Gates.

Three days again passed, and it was his tenth day inside this Seven Heaven Sect. This morning, Zhang Wu Ji went to the Material Hall again to exchange seventy Fool Silver Ingots for pills. But the differences this time is that instead of being paid with seventy Qi Accumulating Pills, they pay him a hundred and forty pills for the seventy Advance-Grade Ingots!

"What monster is this?"

"Ten days is what it took for him to smelt Advance-Grade Fool Silver? Is this still called talents?" the spectators near to the counter declared. And in no time, this kind of news is spreading throughout the First Heaven Mountain, making everyone questioned about his identity.

"Where did he come from?"

"How strong is this guy?"

"When did he appeared?"

"Why blacksmithing?"

"Will he participates in the competition twenty days later?"

All sort of question is asked by everyone within the first mountain and even Wu Jing in the Second mountain heard his name.

"This brat... Ten days... He can't lay low with his strength at all huh?" Wu Jing smirks as he continues with his game of chess with the Elder.
