Chapter 3 Tempered into Steel
Tang San and Tang Immortal had also forged more than eight thousand hammers in the past eleven days, but Tang San's iron lump had shrunk to one-fourth of its original size, while Tang Immortal's had shrunk to one-eighth.
This is linked to their strength, Tang Immortal's cultivation of the highest mental method of the Ten Thousand Refining Sect, Ten Thousand Refining Gong, can greatly enhance his strength, so he has stronger strength for forging. It's just that it's stuck in the first weight and can't break through.
Tang Immortal speculated that the breakthrough of Ten Thousand Refining Martial Arts might be related to the rumored soul master.
After Tang Buying was reborn in the Douluo Continent, he began to ask around for information related to the profession of soul master. In this regard, Tang Immortal also has a certain understanding.
At the age of six, he awakened his martial soul and became a soul warrior. He is only five years old now, and he is still a year away from the awakening of the martial spirit. Tang Immortal looked at Tang San on the side, Tang San was six years old this year, and he was about to awaken his martial spirit.
"Little Four, it seems that your iron is more in line with Dad's standards"
Tang San looked at Tang Immortal's iron block and said, since he was a child, Tang San had found that this younger brother of his was amazingly powerful. Now in the aspect of forging, there is such a big gap.
"Haha," Tang smiled wryly.
The gap between the two pieces of iron was indeed very different, but there was a trace of stubbornness in Tang San's eyes, and he immediately began the next forging.
However, Tang Buying couldn't help but ask Tang San.
"Brother, do you know the soul master?"
"I've heard from the people in the village, what's wrong?"
Tang San was also full of curiosity about the soul master, stopped the work in his hand, and turned to look at Tang Immortal.
"I heard from the people in the village that the martial soul awakening ceremony in the village will start in a few days, and you are six years old, you should participate in this martial soul awakening, what do you guess your martial soul will be?"
Tang San was stunned, obviously he didn't know the news, and now Tang Immortal told Tang San, which made Tang San have a trace of anticipation in his heart.
"Let it be!" Tang San said as calmly as he could.
"I'm still a year old, so I can only participate next year," Tang said with a pretended disappointment.
The two of them continued to forge and began to forge as they struck the iron block towards the standard of 10,000 strokes.
In the afternoon of the cabin, not only Tang San and Tang Bu were forging iron blocks, but Tang Hao's working hours were forging farm tools.
At this moment, a voice came from outside the wooden house.
"Tang Hao, what about work?"
Tang San and Tang Immortal went out to take a look when they heard the sound, and the person who came was Jack, the village elder of the Holy Soul Village.
Jack, who is in his sixties, looks very energetic with a clean outfit.
Don's immortality had a profound impact on him, and when his family was still in difficulty, Old Jack often sent free food to help his family. People who are good to themselves, Tang Buying will always remember in his heart.
"Hello Grandpa Jack," Tang Buying and Tang San opened their mouths to greet each other.
"Little three, little four, good" Old Jack responded to Tang Immortal and Tang San's greetings.
"Is there something wrong? Village Chief," Tang Hao said coldly.
Old Jack was accustomed to Tang Hao's attitude, and slowly said: "Xiao San is almost six years old, and he can also participate in this year's martial soul awakening ceremony."
Tang Hao glanced at Tang San and said, "Then let's participate!" What day is it? ”
Old Jack responded: "Three days later, I'll just pick up the junior."
It can be seen from Old Jack's eyes that he is very uneasy about Tang Hao.
And when Tang San saw Old Jack talking about the martial soul awakening ceremony, he immediately asked:
"Grandpa Jack, what is Martial Spirit Awakening?"
Old Jack thought for a moment and said: "Each of us has our own martial soul, and we will awaken the martial soul when we are six years old, and if we have a martial soul, our ability will be enhanced, even if it is the most ordinary martial soul." If Xiao San has soul power when he awakens the martial soul, then Xiao San can cultivate and become a soul master. This time, it is a great soul master who awakens the martial soul for us."
When Old Jack talked about the Great Soul Master, a hint of envy flashed in his eyes.
"The fourth child is only five years old, and he can also participate in the Martial Spirit Awakening next year!"
Old Jack looked at Don Immortal on the side and comforted him.
Tang San and Tang Bu were well-known for their sensibility in Holy Soul Village, and Old Jack also liked the two of them very much.
Old Jack made small talk and then left the cabin.
Just as Tang Hao continued to work, Tang Immortal opened his mouth and shouted:
"Daddy"
"What's wrong?" Tang Hao's tone looked impatient.
"Those 10,000 times, my brother and I have finished forging"
Tang Immortal and Tang San returned to the room and placed the forged iron in front of Tang Hao.
The two pieces of iron of different sizes made Tang Hao a little surprised. In forging, it is obvious that Tang Immortal has done it even better. But Tang Immortal knew that if it weren't for the Xuanyu hand that Tang San passed to him, he might not be able to finish forging 10,000 strokes.
Moreover, Tang Bu remembered what Tang San said to himself when he passed it on to his Xuanyu hand.
"Don't Tell Dad"
Tang Immortal also understood the worry in Tang San's tone, he was afraid of revealing his secret, Tang Immortal swore to Tang San that he would never say it.
With the protection of Xuanyu's hand, Tang Immortal was able to forge 10,000 in a short period of time.
"Do you know what I mean?"
Tang San and Tang Immortal both comprehended the truth taught by Tang Hao in the forging, and said in unison:
"Steel"
Tang Hao found that his two sons brought a lot of surprise to him.
"When you forge the iron to the size of a fist, give it to me."
"Yes"
Knowing that the process would become more and more difficult, the brothers agreed.
The tighter the iron is, the more difficult it becomes.
In the space of three days, Tang Buying and Tang San all devoted themselves to the work of forging iron blocks. The three days passed quickly, and Old Jack came to pick up Tang San as scheduled to participate in the Martial Spirit Awakening Ceremony.
Looking at Old Jack and Tang San's departure, Tang Immortal's eyes were full of envy.
"Eager to go?" Tang Hao said on the side.
"Hmm," Tang Buxian nodded subconsciously.
But soon Tang Buying adjusted and went back to forge iron blocks.
After looking at a lot of his own iron on the side, Tang Immortal began the next forging work.
A few hours later, Tang Buying heard Tang San and Old Jack coming back.
As soon as Tang Buying went out to take a look, he saw Tang Hao and Old Jack arguing.
The general content is that Old Jack wants to use the quota of work-study students in the village to send Tang San to the Notting Junior Soul Master Academy, but Tang Hao disagrees.
The end result was that Old Jack left angrily.
