Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

Chapter 73 One Strike To Produce Premium-Grade Equipment. Jiang Mengyao Is Shocked!

"It's all because of that test. They insisted on testing my swords' durability. They threw both of them into the molding machine, and it didn't take long for them to bend like this."

Jiang Mengyao looked a little dejected. "What kind of broken machine is that? I only got six points."

Wu Mo took the two thin swords from Jiang Mengyao's hands. After a slight comparison, he could see that the two swords were bent more than ten degrees.

If he did not fix them, she would definitely be at a disadvantage in the second agility test.

"It's alright, I'll help you fix them!"

Wu Mo snapped his fingers lightly, and the next moment, the Lightning Warhammer appeared in his hands.

Placing the two swords on the ground, Wu Mo lightly tapped them with the hammer to shape them. After a few minutes, the two swords were straight again, but there were many traces of forging on them, and they were not as beautiful as before.

[Ding! The Lightning Warhammer's level 1 Lucky Strike has been successfully determined. Dual-phoenix Sword's quality has been upgraded to Premium grade. The data has been changed as follows!]

[Equipment Type: Sword

[Equipment Name: Dual-phoenix Swords

[Equipment Grade: Premium

[System Score: 39 points.

[Equipment Effect: 1. Bell Dance (increases the wearer's speed by a portion.)

[2. Plum Blossom Pierce (attacks have a probability of causing double damage.)

[Additional Effect: Cold Elegant Saw (attacks cause slow bleeding]

Gasp!

When he saw the Dual-phoenix Swords' effect, Wu Mo could not help but gasp in his heart.

Was Jiang Mengyao that lucky? He had only helped her shape the weapons, and they got an upgrade just like that?

Looking at the green glow on the swords, Wu Mo did not know how to evaluate them.

One could only call it luck.

"Wu Mo, what's wrong?"

Seeing Wu Mo stare at her twin swords, Jiang Mengyao's heart skipped a beat. Were her weapons seriously damaged and beyond fixing?

Yet, when she squatted down to check, she was shocked by the pale green light that her weapons now gave off.

"What... What's going on?!"

Mengyao clearly remembered that the two swords she forged were only of Rare grade. How did they become Premium-grade equipment?

Besides, there seemed to be some slight changes. The length of the swords had become more reasonable. The blades flickered with a cold light and made people shudder too!

"Shh... don't make a sound."

Wu Mo immediately held his index finger in front of his lips, signaling for Jiang Mengyao to keep it a secret.

Coming into close contact with Wu Mo so suddenly, Jiang Mengyao's face turned red.

She composed herself and found that Wu Mo was still looking at her, so she immediately said, "Okay... I won't say a word."

"Actually, I'm not quite sure why there are changes, but to avoid trouble, please help me keep it a secret. This is our secret," Wu Mo returned the Dual-phoenix Swords to Jiang Mengyao and said with a smile.

The latter nodded and immediately turned her head away. No one knew what she was thinking.

At that moment, Wu Mo was also contemplating. Others could not know about the Lightning Warhammer's ability to increase the grade of other equipment. It appeared that he could not use it in public next time.

Not long after, the first round of the test on durability ended. Dozens of people emerged with zero marks. Some of their equipment was damaged, so they could only hope that they would not be affected in the next round.

After the first round ended, the second test on agility quickly began.

This time, Wu Mo was fifth in line. Not only could he easily see the test in front of him, but he could also finish it quickly and have time for some rest.

"Next, Zhu Shan!" the old principal shouted.

A youth with a well-proportioned figure and a pair of multi-layer-sole cloth shoes walked out. He was holding a 1.2-meter-long sword in his hand. The sword's blade was as smooth as a mirror, and it radiated cold light in all directions.

The principal, the mayor, and the researcher, Zhou Jinlong, exchanged glances.

Then, Zhou Jinlong immediately said in a cold tone, "The current test is on agility. However, I have a question. I wonder if you can answer it, student."

Zhou Jinlong's tone was cold, and coupled with his indifferent expression, he seemed extremely harsh.

The surroundings gradually became quiet. The young man named Zhu Shan was also a little nervous, but he managed to collect himself and say, "Mr. Zhou, if you have any questions, please let me know."

"Okay."

Zhou Jinlong sat up straight and enunciated each word, "I'd like to ask, how do you define the concept of 'agility' in actual combat?"

As soon as the judge from the National Artifact Research Department said that, the surrounding students immediately frowned.

This was just a weapons test. Why was language comprehension involved?

Everyone was puzzled, but after a moment, the examinee, Zhu Shan, seemed to think of something. He raised his head with a face full of confidence and said, "Judge, I think that the work I created is worthy of the word 'agile.'"

As he spoke, Zhu Shan immediately pulled out the long sword that was tied to his waist. With a slight flick of his wrist, the long sword in his hand released a series of crackling sounds.

Spirit energy from the sword proceeded to fill the air. The blade of the sword was like silk that could be shaped at will. It was extremely nimble.

After displaying a short sword technique, Zhu Shan flipped his hand and inserted the long sword back into the scabbard.

With a clear and confident voice, he said, "This sword of mine is 110 centimeters long and made of carbon steel. Since the sword's body is just thin enough, it has sufficient durability. Moreover, I used a mixed casting technique for its rough form. It also has extremely high elasticity while retaining its hardness!

"It cuts iron like mud when used. Moreover, thanks to its small weight, it can save the cultivator's physical strength. Without using it, it can be worn directly on the waist. This is called agility!"

After he spoke, Zhu Shan stood with his hands behind his back, waiting for the three judges' scores.

Mayor Zhao Lu listened and nodded slightly.

The old principal at the side also showed a satisfied expression.

Meanwhile, the invited judge, Zhou Jinlong was as indifferent as ever, appearing expressionless.

In the end, Zhu Shan scored seven points in the agility assessment segment, which was a pretty good score.

Soon, the second person went on stage.

The young man's eyebrows were straight, and he had slightly bulging muscles. It was obvious that he was a student with some foundation in martial arts.

At present, he walked up with a dagger that glowed with a green light in his hand.

Seeing the green glow, Wu Mo, who was waiting by the side, could not help but frown.

This was because he noticed that the Premium-grade dagger had not been forged with a strong forging technique. Furthermore, the three stars on the chest of the young man standing on the platform were also somewhat eye-catching.

"A three-star blacksmith didn't get eliminated during the preliminary selection. There's something here!"

"Isn't he from Group One? His strength is average, and his family background is also ordinary. How did he manage to forge Premium-grade equipment? How strange!"

Hearing the discussion in his ears, Wu Mo recalled the rough dagger he had seen in his classroom during the mid-term inspection.

Its owner was now on the stage.

It was just that Wu Mo did not care about other people's forging works. Moreover, he was not familiar with that young man and did not remember his name.

He only knew that his relationship with the class monitor, Tang Mu, was not good.

On the assessment platform, Mayor Zhao Lu saw that the weapon in the youth's hand was emitting green light, and his interest was immediately piqued.
