In the courtyard, Wei Yi was carefully polishing and polishing the sword body with a cuo stone.

After some polishing, he put down the stone in his hand, picked up the sword, and looked at it with satisfaction.

The entire sword body is as smooth as a mirror, which can shine on people, moving slightly, the cold light appears, and the sharpness is compelling.

From the appearance alone, it already gives people an invincible edge and sharpness.

When you tap it lightly with your fingertips, it suddenly makes a crisp groaning sound, which is very nice.

Wei Yi tore off a piece of hair, put it on the blade of the sword, and with a gentle blow, the hair was cut off by the blade.

It's really blown-hair, and it's extremely sharp.

Then he took the stake that he had cut with his sword, fixed it again, and when he cut it off with his sword, the stake broke with a sound.

Although last time it was also a sword to easily cut off the stake.

But only Wei Yi himself knows best that the feeling of cutting the stake this time is completely different from before.

Before, it seemed that the resistance and hardness of the wood could still be felt.

But now this sword goes down, as if it has been cut on tofu, and it doesn't even feel hard at all.

Seeing that Wei Yi was testing the new sword, the stone that was originally sharpening the kitchen knife on the side also ran over.

He was also involved in the forging of this sword.

Obviously, I also felt that many of the methods used by Wei Yi this time were different from before.

Therefore, Shi Xin was also full of expectations for the sword forged by Wei Yixin.

Feeling the sharpness of this sword, Wei Yi's sense of anticipation in his heart also increased a lot.

From his second uncle's toolbox, he took out the special metal rod, also known as the sword inspection rod.

This sword test stick is about two fingers thick, like iron and stone, and the texture is extremely hard.

Ordinary swords slashed on it, and there was only the sound of gold and iron clashing, but it was difficult to leave any scars on it.

If you use too much force, you may even break the sword directly.

This sword test rod was used by Wei Tieshan to test the extreme performance of the sword he had built.

Now the deepest sword mark on it is not even a centimeter.

It was probably left of the sharpest sword he'd ever built.

"According to what the second uncle said, if you can cut a half-inch-deep gap on this metal rod, you can almost reach the quality of a sword."

"I wonder if my sword can reach it?"

Wei Yi looked forward to it in his heart.

On the side, Shi also blinked his dark eyes and looked at Wei Yi curiously.

He also knows something about this metal rod.

I have even seen Wei Tieshan test the extreme performance of the sword with this metal rod.

So I am also very curious about how deep the sword forged by Wei Yi this time can leave a gap on this metal rod.

Wei Yi's expression was serious, and he fixed the metal rod on a wooden pier.

Then he took the sword in both hands and raised it high.

Brush –

Slash down with a sword.

Qiang –

With the sound of a sword, Wei Yi only felt a sudden shock from the sword body, and saw that there seemed to be a flash of sparks.

At the same time, the metal rod was disconnected and split in two.

Divided into two, there was a wooden pier beneath the metal rod.

Seeing this scene, the stone on the side suddenly widened his eyes and opened his mouth.

looked at the sword in Wei Yi's hand in disbelief.

Although he guessed that Wei Yi's sword might be sharper than the one he had built last time.

But I never thought that I would be able to cut off the incomparably hard metal rod with a single sword.

Wei Yi also looked at the broken metal rod and wooden pier in surprise, and he was also surprised in his heart.

The immediate results also far exceeded his own expectations.

Wei Yi immediately bent down to pick up the broken metal rod, and the incision was equally smooth and smooth.

On the other hand, the blade in his hand is still intact.

"It's done, I really succeeded!" Wei Yi's heart was beating fiercely, and his heart was also excited.

He knew very well that he could easily cut off the metal rod.

The sword he built himself has definitely reached the quality of a jeweled sword.

In other words, as long as he passes the assessment of the Sword Casting Division, he can become a real Nine Rank Sword Casting Master.

The day came much sooner than he expected.

"I really didn't expect that when the liver reached the second order, it would have the level of a nine-rank swordsmith!" Wei Yi was pleasantly surprised.

But on second thought, this system can turn ordinary skills into magical beings.

Now it's just a nine-rank swordsmith, and then there are seven-rank and fifth-grade ......

In the future, there may be more powerful skills on top of a product.

It's not impossible to forge a magic weapon.

Although it is only a small achievement nowadays.

But for Wei Yi, it's still worth being happy.

"Big, big brother, you, you actually cut off that metal rod!" The stone was stunned for a while before coming back to his senses.

Wei Yi smiled, and immediately walked over and touched the stone's head.

Immediately kneaded his fluffy hair into a chicken nest.

"How about it, your big brother and I'm amazing!" Wei Yi said with a smile.

"Uh-huh, that's amazing!" Shi nodded heavily, looking at Wei Yi with admiration in his eyes.

After a long time, Wei Yi cleaned and tidied up his appearance, and prepared to go to the Sword Casting Division to sign up for the assessment.

But as soon as he was about to walk out of the courtyard gate, he saw his aunt return.

"Auntie, you're back, how is the second uncle?" Wei Yi hurriedly asked.

"Your second uncle is very good, and he is very happy to know that you have inherited his mantle now!" Wei Xue forced a smile on his face.

Wei Yi knew the bitterness in his aunt's heart, and presumably the second uncle would not have a good life in that cell.

"By the way, Yi'er, do you want to go out?" Wei Xue diverted the topic.

"Oh, yes, I'm going to go to the Sword Casting Division to sign up and participate in the assessment." Wei Yi said truthfully.

"Huh?" Wei Xue was stunned for a moment.

"Senior sister, big brother, the sword he just built cut off that metal rod!" The stone also ran over and said excitedly.

Wei Xue didn't know what the stone meant.

But roughly guessed, it should be Wei Yi who created a very powerful sword.

"Auntie, I should have reached the level of a nine-rank swordsmith!" Wei Yi said confidently.

Hearing Wei Yi's words, Wei Xue's eyes widened slightly, and his eyes brightened a little.

"Really, really?" Wei Xue couldn't believe it.

Becoming a Jiupin Sword Forge Master is Wei Tieshan's lifelong wish.

He has worked hard for many years to achieve this goal, but he still has not been able to achieve it.

"It should be eight or nine and ten!" Wei Yi said without modesty.

He also hopes that this good news can make his aunt's mood better.

"Okay, okay, Yi'er, you're so good, Auntie is really proud of you!" Wei Xue was a little excited.

I feel that the haze in my heart seems to have dissipated a lot.

If Wei Yi becomes a Jiupin Sword Forger, then his identity and status will be different.

In addition to being able to make a lot of money and solve the financial problems of the family.

may also make friends with some dignitaries and dignitaries because of this, and maybe have the opportunity to rescue Wei Tieshan in the future.

"Auntie, you can rest first, I'll go to the Sword Casting Division to sign up, and I'll be back quickly!" Wei Yi said.

"Good!"

The Sword Casting Division is located in the inner city, near the government office of Qingzhou Mansion.

In the entire Great Yan Dynasty, there were a total of twelve sword casting divisions, which were all under the management of the Ordnance Bureau.

Most of the swordsmithing divisions in various regions are managed by one envoy and three to five officials.

Responsible for the assessment of swordsmiths, registration, collection of swordsmithing taxes, and recruitment of wartime personnel.

Manage the seal of the king, as well as the daily supervision of the swordsmith.

All swordsmiths who pass the assessment will be registered and left with files for easy management.

At the same time, he received an exclusive Wang Zhuyin and enjoyed many rights.

For example, the right to sell swords, the right to buy refined iron and certain special ores.

You can even buy coal at a low price.

However, the Jiupin Sword Forge also needs to pay a jeweled sword to the Sword Casting Division every month as a sword casting tax.
