Chapter 499 Xu Tianran’s secret!

The old man in yellow is also a soul mentor, but he is only at the third level. After all, for most soul masters, breaking through the third ring will be a qualitative change, and many people will never be able to achieve it in their lifetime.

But although this old man is only a third-level soul engineer, his eyesight is definitely not bad. As a member of the Xishui Alliance, he had seen a senior soul master make a soul guidance device more than once, and he had even seen a mysterious strong man performing spiritual training.

Huo Yuhao's actions at this time were even more shocking than the strong man he had seen who could perform spiritual training. Not only is it smooth, but it is also incredibly fast.

Compared to soul engineers, fine steel is a common and easy-to-engraving material. But for forging, there is no difference at all between fine steel with extremely poor soul power transmission ability and a piece of scrap metal on the ground!

Surrounded by extremely experienced soul mentors, how could anyone fail to see how shocking Huo Yuhao's skills were! There are some people in Mingdetang who can easily do things like Thousand Refinements.

However, Huo Yuhao's skill is not a simple Thousand Refinement, but a Thousand Refinement skill! Giving metal the foundation of spirituality is something that only craftsmen who are close to the spiritual forging level or even capable of spiritual forging can do.

But even for that kind of existence, it would take some time to upgrade the rare metal to this level.

But at this time, Huo Yuhao gave a piece of ordinary material spirituality with a thousand forgings, which can be said to be a true transformation of decay into magic.

These soul mentors may be familiar with the purification and tempering of metals. But when it comes to achieving the same breath as metal, or even giving metal spirituality, soul and even life, they absolutely cannot do this.

Under Huo Yuhao's blow, the piece of fine steel had turned into a pure silver color. Then a blazing heat slowly dissipated from Huo Yuhao's hands, and he used his palms to knead the thousand-forged spirit-level fine steel into a one-foot dagger.

Although those onlookers did not feel the temperature of Huo Yuhao's flames, they could feel the threat of death and were immediately frightened and backed away.

Judging from the red-hot piece of thousand-forged stainless steel that instantly turned into soft fibers, the temperature of the flame was definitely not low, but all the temperatures were under Huo Yuhao's control and there was no leakage.

Experts watch the excitement, while laymen watch the door. There are many strong soul teachers in the Xishui Alliance, and there are also excellent blacksmiths. Most of these soul masters who can become blacksmiths have iron weapons or fire-related souls.

In the eyes of these flame soul masters, Huo Yuhao was like a superior god, while the flames of their souls were like ants in underground caves. The two were as different as clouds and mud, not at the same level. .

Strong, peerless strong!
But this process did not last too long. One minute, just one minute later, Huo Yuhao's hands had stopped, and he turned around easily, signaling to the sluggish old man in yellow: "It's done. .”

Only then did the old man in yellow wake up, hurried forward and picked up the silver-white dagger on the table.

Then, he took out a third-level soul guidance armor from his storage soul guidance device.

With a wave of his hand, the blade of the dagger turned into a silver streak and the armor was split into two halves. The dagger made of thousand-forged spirit-level metal is so sharp that it is considered a valuable treasure even in this Xishui Alliance.

The expression of the old man in yellow had completely changed at this time, and he respectfully handed the dagger in his hand back to Huo Yuhao, and then said: "You have passed the qualifying test, this is your thing, please keep it. In this competition, all the soul guides we make will belong to the soul guide himself, of course, you can also sell them to us."

Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Then I'll leave it to you. Just think of it as compensation for the damage to this table. Is that enough?"

"That's enough, of course it's enough."

Huo Yuhao did not destroy the whole table. If it were repaired, it would probably cost dozens of gold soul coins. Although this thousand-forged and spiritual metal was made into a dagger, it could still be used to make battle armor, and the price was immeasurable.

What's more, the forging ability displayed by Huo Yuhao has completely overwhelmed the referee.

The referee asked tentatively: "Can I ask, what level of blacksmith are you?"

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and said, "You will know in the future."

"I understand." The referee nodded.

"You have passed the qualifying round. Tomorrow we will start the first round, which is directly the knockout round. Each round eliminates one-third of the total number of people in the previous round until the final champion is determined. This is your qualification pass. Voucher, you can use it to claim this round’s rewards from the staff.”

As he spoke, he handed over a badge made of pure gold with a number on it, seventy-one.

Under the respectful gaze of the old man in yellow, Huo Yuhao walked straight outside.

"Hey, it's over so soon? Did you think you couldn't pass the test and quit with the knowledge?" The middle-aged man in charge of guarding the assessment area said sarcastically.

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, spread his right hand and said, "I just want to know where to receive the award."

When the middle-aged man who was taunting saw the golden badge in Huo Yuhao's hand, he felt like a duck being strangled by the neck, and his voice was completely suppressed in his throat.

"This, this is impossible. Just a little more time? You, you cheated!"

Huo Yuhao chuckled and said, "It is true that someone cheated, but it may not be me."

At this time, the old man in yellow who acted as the referee had already rushed over and said quickly: "I'm sorry to the two distinguished guests. This is a misunderstanding. Wan Wang, please apologize to the two distinguished guests."

"Wanwang? It's indeed a good name!" Huo Yuhao said with a smile. "You have also tampered with that soul guide making table, right? You have a huge appetite for one million gold soul coins. I think you are really hungry."

Wan Wang's expression suddenly changed. Although he was perverse and sarcastic, he was by no means a fool. Since Huo Yuhao can pass the assessment, he can never afford to offend such a person. After all, he is just a third-ringed soul master.

"I, I didn't!" Wan Wang said with some fear in his voice.

Huo Yuhao shrugged and said, "I want to kill you, but I don't really need a reason, right?"

Wan Wang subconsciously took a few steps back, but he did not notice that red flames rose under his feet.

"No VIPs allowed," the old man in yellow shouted hurriedly. However, his words were still a step too late.

"laugh"

The blazing flames suddenly rose, and Wanwang let out a shrill scream, and his whole body was burned to ashes.

The sudden change immediately caused a loud exclamation. This is an important stronghold of the Xishui Alliance. Who would have thought that someone would dare to kill people here, and in such a cruel way.

While the guests were horrified, many big men in black immediately surrounded them. They also include some referees wearing yellow clothes, as well as long-robed stewards dressed like the Ten Thousand Kings.

In just a few blinks, Huo Yuhao and Ning Tian were surrounded by a crowd of people.

"Haha." Huo Yuhao waved his hand gently, and everyone surrounding him fell unconscious.

"Stop, what's going on?" A loud shout sounded. Immediately afterwards, a figure fell from the sky, and five soul rings, three yellow and two purple, shone brightly and fell directly into the inner circle. The folded wings of the soul guide behind him were retracted, and he couldn't help but take a breath when he saw the scene in the field.

"Dear guest, please calm down. I am Chen An, the director of the Golden Hall of the Xishui Alliance. Who can tell me what happened just now?"

The old man in yellow who had acted as referee for Huo Yuhao hurried forward and whispered something in Chen An's ear.

"One hammer lifts the soul!" Chen An said in a voiceless voice. "Who are you……"

"I'm just a villager in the mountains. I just want to earn some bonuses to make ends meet." Huo Yuhao said calmly: "The king used dishonorable means to gain my bet, verbal provocation, is there a way to kill him?"

Damn it, these four words are really easy to say, Huo Yuhao cursed in his heart.

Chen An was able to preside over the Golden Hall because his psychological quality was excellent. The look on his face changed again and became much more respectful.

A blacksmith of this level, no matter whether he reveals his identity or not, is not someone he can afford to offend.

"The distinguished guest is right. The kings have abandoned our Xishui rules and attacked you rashly, which is an unforgivable crime. Others should stop hanging around here and go do what you have to do."

Even though the Xishui Alliance is an underground force, sometimes the underground forces can do things much more efficiently than those in upright places. As the director of the Golden Hall and a powerful soul king, Chen An has considerable authority here. He is also the chief referee of today's qualifying competition.

As soon as he spoke, his men immediately took action, some responsible for maintaining order and others responsible for cleaning up. In just a moment, the surrounding area was cleared.

Chen An said to Huo Yuhao in a low voice: "Dear guest, can you lend me a moment to speak?"

"Okay." Huo Yuhao agreed happily.

"Two distinguished guests, please follow me." Chen An said, turning around to lead the way.

Chen An led the two of them around to a small door on the side, and out of the golden hall was a gorgeous corridor. After walking not far, Chen An opened the door next to him and led the two of them in.

The room is hundreds of square meters, and the walls are covered with solid wood. The overall golden style is consistent with the underground world.

"You two, please take a seat." Chen An said respectfully, standing next to the luxurious sofa.

Huo Yuhao waved his hand and said with a smile, "There's no need to sit down. Just say what you want."

Chen An's eyes moved slightly and he whispered: "Dignified guest, are you from..."

At this point, he paused.

"Haha, Xiaohu, let's go." Huo Yuhao smiled slightly and whistled.

Then, a fat-looking tabby cat slowly walked out of the shadows in the room. And there was an extremely depraved and filthy aura lingering on the body of the civet cat.

The breath of the abyss!

"It turned out to be an adult there." Chen An's eyes suddenly became more respectful. "For a being like you, if you need any resources, you only need to tell me. Why do you need to come here in person?"

Huo Yuhao said calmly: "You must keep the matter of my coming here strictly confidential and not disclose it to anyone. Do you understand? That place is too boring. I am very restless and want to come out and have some fun. Of course, you might as well Make some money for you, mutual benefit will last long, don’t you think?”

"Yes!" Chen An agreed hastily.

Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Bring me what we deserve today and we'll give it back in the next round."

Chen An nodded and said, "Is there anything we need to do?"

Huo Yuhao waved his hand and said: "You don't need to do anything. The ranking we can get depends entirely on ourselves. You have seen the fate of Wan Wang. If anyone makes me unhappy again, the fate will not be as easy as his."

"Don't think that death will solve the problem. I am not bad at the art of soul refining!"

Chen An shivered smartly: "Don't worry, I will definitely restrain my subordinates, and I will do whatever you ask for, even if it is small. Even in this alliance, I will not report to the superiors, everything will be according to your wishes. .”

Huo Yuhao nodded with satisfaction and said, "It seems that you are a smart person. Smart people can always live longer."

"Thank you for the compliment, sir." Chen An's expression relaxed slightly, but he still looked frightened.

"I won't take the money today. I'll take it together next time. I don't care about these wastes from the competition at all, so you can do it yourself on how to make money on the bet, but I can't lose my share. . I don’t care about Qian, but I am interested in the rare metals in your plane, do you understand?”

"Yes." Chen An agreed again.

Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."

When he was approaching the door, Huo Yuhao suddenly said: "Good morning, if you do well, I will give you some benefits after this competition. If you are willing, you want to become one of us. It’s not impossible. Of course, there will be some price to pay, but the rewards will be greater.”

Chen An was stunned for a moment, then he was overjoyed. He hurried forward, knelt down on one knee beside Huo Yuhao and said, "Thank you for your support, sir."

"Before the first round of competition, I will come to you again. You compile a list of rare metal rewards for each round of competition, and give me the list of bets."

"Yes."

As soon as he went out, Ning Tian couldn't help but ask: "Yuhao, are you sure?"

Huo Yuhao said thoughtfully: "Today's trip was really worthwhile. I found out a lot of things. No wonder the battle armor of Xu Tianran's Royal Guards has the aura of the abyss. I didn't expect that he would actually interact with the abyssal creatures. Cooperate and let him help forge rare metals."

Ning Tian was stunned and said in surprise: "You mean, the Sun and Moon Royal Family may be related to the Abyss Plane?"

Huo Yuhao smiled and said: "It's not possible, it's certain. The temptation just now was for this reason. The aura of the abyss really shocked that Chen'an. You see how he treated me with respect later, obviously he thought that we came from the abyss plane. .”

"If that's the case, then there's no need for me to hold back. Let's inform the Tan family that the Sun and Moon Empire needs to change!" (End of Chapter)
