"Don't get your hopes up too much, I'm just giving you a try, whether it can succeed or not, you have to wait for news!" Wu Chun sat weakly on the stool.

"Then thank you so much Uncle Wu, if I forge it slowly by myself, I don't know when it will be until I wait!"

"I can only report your ideas and needs to the clan and see if it can succeed!"

"Clan, you mean Condensation Sect?" Ling Yi asked.

"That's right, the last time you found the refined iron ore and the gold devouring rat handed over to us for custody have been valued by the clan, the clan has a word, as long as you have needs, try to meet you, who knew that your Haikou is so big, even I was shocked!"

"Hehe, isn't this forced by the situation? Uncle Wu has to help him say more good things!" Ling Yi said with a smile.

"Okay, I tried my best, but it didn't work, don't blame me!"

"How can it? whether it succeeds or not, I owe you a favor!" Ling Yi said.

"Since you owe a favor, let's pay it back first!" Wu Chun said.

"No, Uncle Wu, this favor, aren't you going to let it stay overnight and let me pay it back?"

"I have to run errands while it's hot!" Wu Chungui said with a smile.

Ling Yi could only say helplessly: "You talk about it first!"

"I'm unemployed, there's nothing to do, just to ask you to help participate in a refining competition!"

"Refining Competition?" Ling Yi asked suspiciously, "There are so many refining masters in your martial arts world, not to mention that there is also a Condensation Sect, do you still need my help?" Don't make fun of me!"

"I can't help it!" Wu Chun replied helplessly: "Our martial arts world is the industry of the Condensation Sect, but this competition cannot allow the descendants of the Condensation Sect to participate!"

"What kind of competition do you talk about first!" Ling Yi asked, since it was stipulated that the Condensation Sect would not participate in the competition, Ling Yi felt that it was not such a simple matter!

Wu Chun sorted out his thoughts and began to say: "This is a competition of refiners in the world, of course, it is not comprehensive, the most important forces are our martial arts competition, the refining alliance, Yongmao and the Chamber of Commerce, and the other forces need to worry. Each force sent a representative, the age must be less than twenty years old, this time there is a hundred-year talent in the Refining Weapon Alliance, only twenty years old, he can already forge the best mortal-level weapons, and what is even more terrifying is that I heard that he successfully forged a true-level long knife the day before yesterday!"

"You can forge a true rank weapon at the age of twenty, it's really a genius!" Ling Yi said appreciatively.

"Don't be disgusting, how old are you, aren't you also able to forge a true rank weapon?" We pick and choose, no one can beat him, I was angry about this matter just now!" Wu Chun said helplessly: "Fortunately, you appeared in time, so that I can be sure that the Refining Weapon Alliance will be at the end!"

"Is this game so heavy?" Ling Yi asked.

"Who said it doesn't matter, the stakes are extremely huge, if I fail, I will definitely be punished by the headquarters!" Wu Chun explained: "We hold a competition every five years, and the bet is the mining right of a vein!"

"What kind of veins can make your major forces so obsessed?" Ling Yi asked.

Wu Chun didn't hide it either, and replied, "That's a spiritual vein!"

"Spirit vein?" Ling Yi was also surprised, knowing that the spirit vein was actually a vein that could produce spirit tier ore. As a blacksmith, Ling Yi knows the importance of spirit level ore, and a spirit level refiner with the same ability, adding one more spirit level ore to the forging weapon can greatly improve the success rate of spirit level weapons, not to mention that there is no spirit level weapon without spirit level ore.

In other words, Spirit Rank Ore is the basis for forging Spirit Rank weapons, and it is also one of the conditions for increasing the success rate.

"In other words, if you win, you will be able to mine the Spirit Rank Ore Vein for five years?" Ling Yi asked.

"It's not all like that, this spirit level vein was explored by many forces back then, it has a lot of ore holes, but it is divided into main ore veins and secondary ore veins, and the main ore veins are also being contested!" Wu Chun explained.

"Can't you just work together to mine?

"It's not that we are willing, we have been mining together for a period of time, and the spirit level ore is extremely scarce, no matter which force mines it, it will attract redness, and several forces will then have a lot of killing. In order to solve such a problem, but the various forces have put forward such a rule, within a time limit of five years, to conduct a competition, not to compare martial arts, but only to compare the art of forging, so that it has lasted for an unknown number of years!"

Ling Yi also knew that only in this way could he better restrain the forces of all parties, and everyone would have the opportunity to exploit the main ore vein, and he would also restrict the Condensation Sect, which was quite fair to say.

"How's your battle going?" Ling Yi asked.

Wu Chun shook his head helplessly: "We haven't been able to enter the main vein for ten years, and the refining alliance has been rampant for ten years, every time I look at those invincible people, I get angry, this time they still have such a powerful player, I actually don't have hope, waiting to be punished, who knows that my savior will fall from the sky and appear in front of me!"

"I don't dare to be your savior!" Ling Yi avoided Wu Chun's warm embrace.

"Hehe, then I'll take you as a promise!" Wu Chun didn't give Ling Yi a chance to say no at all.

"Okay, just promise you, but you have to tell me the rules, time and place first!" Ling Yi asked helplessly.

"Look at me, I'm happy to forget everything, in fact, it's simple, the competition is at the headquarters of the Tianyu City Refining Alliance, and the competition will start in three days, for a period of five days, when the time comes, each player will choose the highest-grade weapon forged within five days to compete, it's as simple as that!" Wu Chun introduced the rules of the competition in detail, and finally added: "The raw materials of the competition are all ores, and you can't bring your own materials, that is to say, the competition starts from smelting!"

"Five days? Do you have to start smelting? What a waste of time! Are you sure you'll finish the race?"

It usually takes two to three days for Ling Yi to start forging from the refined metal to the finished product, of course, that is without using a large and small hammer, but it still has to be smelted, which is a waste of time!

"You can rest assured about this, each force can choose two refiners who are ready to fight, and each force has its own mature smelting process, you don't have to worry about this, I can guarantee that it will take you half a day to refine the metal you need." Wu Chun promised.

"That's good, are you sure that the alliance refiner can forge a true rank weapon in four days?" Ling Yi asked, if he didn't have a big or small hammer, he wouldn't be able to grasp the four days from forging and refining to forging a finished true rank weapon. Of course, for the sake of the competition, Ling Yi can't do it, what he wants to do is to keep improving, and if he can forge a sixth-grade true rank weapon, he will only work hard to forge it into a seventh-grade weapon, not a fifth-grade weapon!

"Who knows what the Refining Alliance means, just in case!" Wu Chun said uncertainly.

"That's right, if you don't fight a battle that you are not sure of, then it will be decided!" Ling Yi said to Wu Chun.

"Happy working together!"

The two held big hands together.

Ling Yi returned to the station of the Shenwu Society, and it was already the middle of the night, and Wanxi was still waiting for him in the courtyard.

Looking at Wanxi standing in the snow, Ling Yi hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed her cold little hand: "Why don't you go back to your room and wait? Isn't it cold here?"

"It's okay, I just want to see you for the first time!" Wanxi took Ling Yi's hand and walked into the lobby.

"Is everyone asleep?" Ling Yi asked.

"I'm almost asleep, this is the lean porridge left for you, I'll warm it on the stove and drink it while it's hot!"

"Okay!" Ling Yi took the porridge that Wanxi scooped over and drank it, it was warm and comfortable.

"How's it going today?"

"It's going well, but Wu Chun doesn't have so many weapons here, and he has to report to the Condensation Sect, just wait for his news!"

"Well, when are you going to be in the barracks?" asked Wanxi softly.

"There are still a few days, I promised Wu Chun to participate in a refining competition, maybe I have to stay here for ten days, and the competition will be five days!"

"Oh!" there was a little joy in the corner of Wanxi's eyes.

"Let's go outside the city tomorrow!" Ling Yi suggested.

"Okay, do you want to prepare anything?" Wanxi asked.

"Today is the fifteenth day of the winter moon, I want to go out of the city and find a quiet place to pay tribute to my father and grandfather, as well as Sister Yue'er and Xiaokui, you can accompany me!

"Okay, I'll be honored for you!" Wan Xi held Ling Yi's hands and comforted him!

"Thank you!" Ling Yi said softly as he looked into his graceful eyes.

"I should!"

The two of them just sat together quietly, there were no extra words, their hearts were close together, very warm and comfortable!

Ling Yi didn't know when he fell asleep slowly, and when he woke up, he was lying on the table with a quilt on his body, and the stove next to him was burning brightly.

Looking at Wanxi, who didn't know where to go, I thought that she should be preparing the fruits and wax paper fire needed for her memorial service!

got up and put away the quilt, at this time, the door of the lobby suddenly opened, and I saw Wanxi walking in with hot noodles!

"You're awake, I'm ready, eat early, let's go!"

Looking at Wan Xi, who was busy sweating in winter, Ling Yi reached out and gently wiped the sweat from her forehead, and brought one of the bowls of noodles to her.

"You've worked hard, let's eat first!"

"You eat too!"

"Good!"

This kind of life makes Ling Yi feel warm, and such a woman makes Ling Yi feel indebted!

Gulping down the breakfast made by Wanxi, Ling Yi didn't say a word, but everything was silent!

Looking at Ling Yi's gobbling up, the corners of Wanxi's mouth smiled slightly, she also likes this kind of life, and he feels very satisfied at the moment!

"You eat!" Ling Yi looked up, saw Wanxi looking at him blankly, and reminded him loudly.

"You eat slowly, it's not enough!" Wanxi's attention was still on Ling Yi.

An early meal was less than a quarter of an hour, but the two of them had eaten for a lifetime, as if everything had stopped in a quarter of an hour.

Outside, the sky is gradually brightening, but the black clouds are low, and the snow is about to fall, and it will be another day of heavy snowfall.

When Ling Yi and the two went out, the sky finally slowly fell snowflakes, falling on Ling Yi and Wanxi's shoulders one by one, and then slowly melted by their hot body temperature.

"This snow is as big as it was back then!" Ling Yi said sadly, looking up at the sky.
