Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?

Seeing Wu Mo's reaction, he relaxed slightly and said, "Let's go! The Nine Provinces Bank is less than a hundred meters away. I've already made an appointment with their manager and even an appraiser in advance. When we get there, we can complete the appraisal and sign the agreement for our bet!"

Wu Mo saw Chu Qingyan's impatient look and did not delay any longer. He happily agreed and followed him.

"Wanqing, you guys go to the venue and prepare first! I'll be there later!"

Xu Wanqing and the others stopped in their tracks. They watched as Wu Mo and Chu Qingyan disappeared out the door. Their expressions were inexplicably solemn.

"Now, I trust Wu Mo's judgment a little. Previously, I was still a little suspicious that he was making a fuss over nothing, but now, I'm convinced that Chu Qingyan doesn't have good intentions!" Liu Ze pinched his chin as if he was talking to himself and also to the others.

"There's no doubt about it. Even if it's not Wu Mo's guess, it's already 100% certain that there's some conspiracy behind this." Gan Yun shook his head.

Xu Wanqing said lightly, "Alright, this matter ends here. After we leave this door, no one is allowed to mention it to anyone for three days. Don't discuss it with each other either, just in case. This concerns the life and death of many people. Don't underestimate it."

"Alright!" Chen Qingbai said. "We only need to know what to do. We can discuss the details after the exchange conference! Let's go! It's getting late!"

...

Ten minutes later, Wu Mo and Chu Qingyan walked out of the Nine Provinces Bank.

"The agreement has been signed. I will inform you of the duel's location in three days."

Chu Qingyan smiled confidently.

"Because the bet huge, I took the risk to let you decide the time and place. However, there are some things that I still have to say first. For the fairness, I will invite some respected people to act as witnesses to avoid any accidents!"

"Oh? You're worrying too much! But if it makes you feel better, then it's up to you. I have no objections! Farewell!"

Chu Qingyan left first.

Since the two of them were going to the same place, one walked in front of the other. In the end, they got into different cars and headed in the direction of the exchange conference.

The procedures at the bank had gone smoothly as expected.

Not long after, the second part of the exchange conference officially began at 9.00 am.

The second part was the process of designing and implementing the blueprints submitted by the blacksmiths.

This process varied from person to person, but in the end, they had to submit their own work.

If they were successful, their work would be returned to them as a reward, and all the materials consumed would be free. For those who failed, the materials consumed would be borne by the provinces themselves, which was considered a moderate punishment.

To blacksmiths, success was a profit, but failure was not just a matter of money. It was also related to the glory of the various states and their own futures.

Therefore, the forging was even more important than the blueprint design this time.

Even if their blueprint design was not good, as long as the blacksmith could understand it, it would be fine. As long as the equipment could be forged, it did not matter if the blueprint design score was not high. If the quality of the equipment forged was up to standard, it would still be able to receive a good score.

This could be considered a chance to level up and balance out the blueprint design's low score.

It would not be a problem for one to increase one's overall ranking.

However, the forging process did not begin immediately. They each had to submit a list of materials and then prepare them. There was still some time left for this process.

Therefore, Xu Wanqing and the others came to Wu Mo's forging room.

"How was it? Did you see the Crystal Cores?" Gan Yun asked curiously.

Wu Mo saw their curious expressions and asked, "Have you prepared your own materials? You still have the time to care about this?"

"Hey! What materials we need have already been determined after the blueprint's completion. There's no need to think about it now. I've already submitted the list, and I'm just waiting for them to send the materials over. I still have some time. Why not come over and chat with you?"

"That's right! Did you notice any strange people or things appearing nearby? This is a matter of life and death. We can't ignore it!"

"Don't worry! Not at all! Anyone with a brain would know that this is not the time to be exposed. How could they give themselves away at this time?!"

Wu Mo glanced at them and said, "Once the exchange is over, you can leave immediately. Don't get involved. That will be the greatest help to me."

"No, we can't stay out of this!"

"What? Didn't I make myself clear enough? "With our cultivation and strength, if we really face the enemy, it's almost like sending them fodder. It doesn't matter if we have a few more of you. Why do we have to serve them our heads on a silver platter? Do I have to explain it more clearly? You'll be a burden if you go!"

Xu Wanqing snorted and said, "Fine! I knew that you didn't want us to go because you think we're a burden. But don't treat us like we're fools. We come from the same province. and we have a good relationship. If we don't go with you, do you think Chu Qingyan will suspect us? If we're on guard because of this, it won't be good if they notice any sudden changes."

"I know how to escape, so I'm not worried," Wu Mo said, somewhat speechless. "However, if you guys go, I can't take you with me. When the time comes, do you want me to abandon you guys and run away? Aren't you trying to make things more difficult for me?"

Hearing Wu Mo's words, the few of them looked at him in surprise.

"You actually have a way to escape? Tell us!"

Wu Mo did not hide anything. He lifted his leg and said, "Do you see this pair of shoes? It can increase my speed. The results of my new research have been very good. But there's definitely no time now. Otherwise, I would've gotten you guys a pair too. It'll be convenient for you to escape!"

Their gazes fell on the ordinary-looking shoes on Wu Mo's feet. They seemed to be no different from ordinary leather shoes, and their eyes flashed with doubt.

Wu Mo did not explain. He channeled his transcendent energy into his shoes, causing them to flash with a faint light. The shoes transformed into a pair of black combat boots.

The boots were covered in patterns, and they looked extremely exquisite. They also flickered with a strange light unique to Divine weapons.

"Gasp!"

"Your shoes are quite interesting! They don't look like high-grade, but they can actually disguise themselves as ordinary shoes. When needed, you just need to inject transcendent energy into it. It's pretty convenient!"
