124: Chapter 124 Obtaining Divine Weapon Materials, Li Yuan's Threat

The Magical Artifact inspection was still in operation.

The blanks forged by the other craftsmen were taken in one after another.

With a dozen or so blanks, it did not take much time.

Furthermore, the best blank only received a Grade B, Level 3 evaluation.

In less than an hour, all the forged blanks had already received their evaluations.

The blanks forged by Meng Shanshi and Shang Chi were evaluated as Grade B, Level 1.

They had originally thought that this quality, having reached the pinnacle, would be enough to contend for the top spot.

But who could have imagined that Li Yuan would forge a Grade A blank?

It directly surpassed the records in the books.

In the craftsmen's original understanding, silver horn iron ore could at most forge a Grade B, Level 1 blank.

Li Yuan used facts to tell them that they were wrong.

These craftsmen simply lacked deep skills and could not fully utilize the potential of this mineral material.

silver horn iron ore is a type of iron ore discovered only in the last three hundred years.

It is produced near a city called Silver Horn City, and its reserves are enormous.

These craftsmen have used this mineral material for so many years, yet they are still far from the improvements brought about by the skills of Senior Cui Dao.

The surroundings were very quiet; logically, it should have proceeded to the next stage.

But looking at the expression of the City Lord of Liulin Pass, he was still somewhat dazed.

"City Lord He, shouldn't you announce the final ranking of this year's Liulin Pass Grand Competition?"

In the crowd, although Vice Dean Shao Lin did not understand how Li Yuan had managed to do all this.

But as the Vice Principal of Meifengshan Martial Arts Academy, he naturally had to speak up for Li Yuan.

Even laymen knew that Li Yuan's Grade A blank was naturally of higher quality.

Regaining his senses, the City Lord of Liulin Pass immediately spoke up and announced that Li Yuan was the winner of this year's Liulin Pass Grand Competition.

That portion of Divine Weapon Materials was held by the attendants of the City Lord's Mansion and presented directly to Li Yuan.

Li Yuan took the Materials and handed them over to his accompanying attendants.

Not far away, Meng Shanshi and Shang Chi, who witnessed this scene, had expressions on their Faces as ugly as if they had swallowed a fly.

At this moment, the two of them were just like the clowns in a play.

Just a moment ago, the two of them were still discussing not helping Li Yuan forge weapons.

Regardless of whose blank won first place, they would both keep this agreement.

But unfortunately, neither of them won first place.

The one who truly took first place was Li Yuan.

Coming to Liulin Pass this time, Li Yuan's goals could be considered accomplished.

Li Yuan did not like to mock others with words; even with opponents, he rarely used verbal sarcasm.

But regarding this Meng Shanshi, Li Yuan's disgust for him was truly quite significant.

"Meng Shanshi, I hope that after you return to Da Shun, you can think of other ways to restrain me."

"Otherwise, you must worry about whether your life can still be saved."

Li Yuan issued this threat in front of so many people.

Craftsmen are surprisingly united when facing external threats.

But when fellow craftsmen develop deep conflicts among themselves, others will certainly adopt an attitude of watching a show.

Li Yuan forged a Grade A quality blank today.

Who dares to say that Li Yuan is not a craftsman?

With such top-tier craftsmanship, Li Yuan would not need the help of other craftsmen in the future.

Even many craftsmen would surely want to build a relationship with Li Yuan and learn some advanced skills from him.

Hearing these words, Meng Shanshi's Face turned deathly pale instantly.

Originally, Li Yuan's strength was already enough to contend with a Ninth-Grade Supreme from the Yan Family.

Meng Shanshi only dared to be so arrogant because he relied on being a Grand Master Craftsman.

Who could have imagined that Li Yuan's craftsmanship was even more formidable than his own?

Regret surged in his heart in an instant.

If he had not been so arrogant when Li Yuan came to find him, things would not be like this today.

"Since Liulin Pass gave me these Divine Weapon Materials, I will give Face to Liulin Pass."

"But after leaving Liulin Pass, when I run into you, you must make sure to think about how to protect yourself."

Li Yuan threw down these words and then led the Vice Principal and the others back to the inn to rest.

After resting well, they returned to Da Shun.

Coming to Liulin Pass this time, the mission could be considered successfully completed.

Vice Principal Shao Lin and the others were full of doubts, completely unable to understand how Li Yuan had achieved all this.

But it did not take long before he let it go.

Not to mention this craftsmanship, even regarding his martial arts strength, he also did not understand how Li Yuan possessed his current power.

The gap between people is very large.

Shao Lin knew very well that one cannot use one's own feelings to judge others.

After packing up, Li Yuan requested to return to Da Shun.

Just after coming out of the inn, the news of Li Yuan's departure spread immediately.

Those who had planned to visit Li Yuan all panicked.

They did not expect Li Yuan to leave so hurriedly.

Liulin Pass is the Holy Land for craftsmen.

Logically speaking, craftsmen who live in other places for a long time would usually stay here a bit longer when visiting.

But Li Yuan was leaving after only a few days, right after participating in the Grand Competition.

A group of craftsmen ran to find City Lord He, hoping he could ask Li Yuan to stay.

Upon hearing this request, City Lord He helplessly spread his hands.

"When Master Craftsman Li came here to participate in the competition, what was your attitude before?"

You were all siding with Meng Shanshi, mocking and ridiculing him in various ways.

If it were me, I wouldn't want to stay any longer either.

I don't have the Face to ask others to stay in Liulin Pass any longer."

After City Lord He expressed his attitude, he did not say anything more to them.

He turned around and returned to his own small courtyard.

Li Yuan's group returned to Shun Kingdom just like that.

Meng Shanshi's initial plan was also to return to Shun Kingdom as soon as possible after the results of the Grand Competition.

He participated in this Grand Competition just to cause trouble for Li Yuan.

He was not looking forward to those Divine Weapon Materials too much.

Of course, winning first place and obtaining those Divine Weapon Materials would certainly be a great thing.

Meng Shanshi's original plan was to forge these Divine Weapon Materials into a sword.

And then use it to pay tribute to Yan Wudi.

Since Yan Wudi died at the hands of Li Yuan, he would snatch Li Yuan's Opportunity and use it to mourn Yan Wudi.

But the reality was that he didn't have the ability to cause trouble for Li Yuan.

Right now, Li Yuan possessed both top-tier Ninth-Grade martial arts strength and such craftsmanship.

Meng Shanshi didn't want to think about mourning or anything anymore.

Now, he was only worried about his own safety.

Li Yuan had just said to his Face that he might take his life.

Could he hire a Ninth-Grade Supreme to protect him all the time?

Other Ninth-Grade Supremes would be afraid of being targeted by the united craftsmen.

But Li Yuan was not afraid; it was very likely that Li Yuan was the world's number one craftsman.

On the way back, Vice Principal Shao Lin finally asked the question in his heart.

When exactly did he learn these craftsmanship skills?

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Li Yuan had truly forged that blank himself.

This was seen with one's own eyes and could not be faked.

In this world, there shouldn't be a craftsman so powerful that they could help Li Yuan fake this.

Li Yuan's response was very simple: he had always known how, he just didn't want to show it before.

When these words were spoken, they actually contradicted Li Yuan's previous actions in many ways.

But for Shao Lin and the others, this explanation was already sufficient.

There were too many questions surrounding Li Yuan.

His craftsmanship was, on the contrary, the smallest of the problems.

After today, everyone would know that Meifeng Mountain had welcomed a Supreme Genius who could not be provoked.

Not only was his martial arts terrifying, but his craftsmanship was also transcendent!
