Sword Casting Manor.
Today was as busy as ever.
Getting out of bed at eight, a bunch of people ran to the plaza to pick up tasks and sort through heaps of battle spoils.
But a Communication Token stayed put in the manager's room, watched over by Jiucai Rong as he handled affairs.
"Why haven't they co yet?"
Due to the need to sort the spoils of war, he was incredibly busy these days.
To others, it was an iron-forging, farming, dirt-eating simulator; to him, it was a corporate martyr simulator.
His own Embers Jiucai Rong had sent to a local shop to be a shopkeeper.
Which ant he had to work solo again.
Most ridiculously, he pulled the Three Flowers seventeen tis without a single new Ember!
After seventeen tries, nothing ca of it, he couldn't help but be frustrated.
Fortunately, a managerial talent, Night Mad Cultivator, recently arrived.
Among the players, he had enough prestige, and everyone respected him; even the blacksmiths reluctantly followed his managent.
This Nightly Frenzied Cultivation Sixth Body was indeed a data-oriented talent, in charge of sorting spoils, making blind boxes, making it less tiring for him.
"I wonder how things are going over there?"
Jiucai Rong grumbled: "According to the intelligence, today should be the day to et with the Saint. If all goes smoothly, we might directly communicate."
"Don't rush." Immortal Aunt said, "If things don't go smoothly, we might et the first day, and only start working the next day."
The two continued their discussion.
Yesterday, The Shop received information gathered by Su Yuniang.
Information from the Nursery, distinguishing between the Two-Phase Realm and Three Elents Realm tombs.
This opened their eyes wide, a true recognition of the high-order circles in this world.
The Nursery, as they speculated, was likely a Sky City.
Probably constructed by an unknown Ancient Dynasty, a glorious prehistoric ruin.
Could be called: the Tenth Heaven Realm.
Generations of dynasties have continually refurbished it, settling in the "Capital City", including previous and current dynasties, all residing there, creating all sorts of troubleso ancient tombs.
Now, the wilderness outside the Capital City has beco quite uncontrollable.
"By the way, how many Artifact Spirits have erged?" Jiucai Rong asked.
"Yesterday, there were more than two hundred Embers, six groups of Mixed Spirit Roots Yin Yang Embers." Immortal Aunt said.
Everyone was busy accumulating, saving a lot of money, now collectively drawing cards.
With a 500 Magic Coins voucher, so people chose not to draw for Middle Grade Spirit Roots; 500 Magic Coins could buy goods seven or eight tis.
A ten percent chance indeed produces that many Embers.
"What about the remaining people?" Jiucai Rong said.
Immortal Aunt casually chatted: "They are still drawing, neighboring ones are praying... you know, divination card drawing, they're choosing an auspicious day."
Jiucai Rong turned dark: "Why choose an auspicious day for drawing cards? Divination drawing doesn't exist."
"You still have the cheek to talk!"
Immortal Aunt disdained: "But, the Embers Adventurer Team has increased by over two hundred mbers, likely able to gather around the mountains and explore a bit."
Suddenly, the Communication Token sounded.
Glancing at the ti, it was only nine.
So quickly?
"I'll go gather people." Jiucai Rong imdiately dashed out of the manager's room.
Before long, a group of people hurriedly entered.
On the other side of the Communication Token, there was a cacophony as if a group was arguing, with loud noise, along with Sword Fairy's deep voice:
"Tiger crouching on the ground."
"Chick stewed with mushrooms," Immortal Aunt said.
Sword Fairy: "Pig Peppa tattooed on the skin?"
Immortal Aunt: "Applause for the people of society!"
Within the palace, Jian Xin: "..."
Listening to their exchange of seven or eight secret phrases.
Next to Jian Xin, who stood coldly holding a sword, was also sowhat puzzled.
Ultimately, could only conclude: The other side had quite a few secret phrases, though odd, undeniably secure.
The location of their manor must be hidden deep!
Previously, Jian Xin was worried about exposing their identity.
Because, at Xinyi Continent, a group of evil cults led by No-Life Sect had just attacked the Capital City's team.
Now, leaving Continent City for the Capital, would those evil cults attack those who didn't enter the Capital, exchanging information via Communication Tokens among High Tier professionals?
For example, would No-Life Sect attack this recently famous Divine Craftsman, anonymously?
Now, their force's location is so deeply hidden, Jian Xin could rest easy.
In the manager's room.
A group of people showed a pleased expression:
"It's here! It's here!"
"It's Sword Fairy herself on the other side!"
After various communications, Immortal Aunt was verified to be Sword Fairy.
Jiucai Rong silently wrote on the blackboard:
"Start!"
"Everyone, mind your words. The Divine Craftsman might be listening."
Each one was prepared, looking focused, with a cautious deanor.
Even above the manager's room, a horizontal banner was hung with the words [Overwhelming Capital Divine Craftsman, Low Tier Divine Weapon Profitable], adding a ceremonial touch.
Last night, they even held a bonfire opening ceremony for entering Capital, with a lot of ceremonial vibe!
Especially Daojiu, who now dressed quite properly.
Even invited Money Lolita from next door, got help from the makeup girls, made a mature look, combed his hair like an adult.
He was the main force of this Divine Craftsman team.
Ning Zheng sat in the distance, quietly observing the scene with a facepalm, speechless:
"Although they are reliable when doing big things, at every beginning I feel there's sothing off."
Ning Zheng had to watch over them.
This matter requires personal supervision, if anything goes amiss, he could attempt to redy it.
Just his twenty thousand plus Qi Fortune Value...
Might not be enough for ergencies.
This was Ning Zheng's concern, but there was no alternative.
He had just spent his Qi Fortune Value to increase to the Three Elents Realm.
At this ti.
Immortal Aunt cautiously said, "What about those Divine Craftsn? Our great anonymous Divine Craftsman has sothing to share!"
Next to her, Daojiu stood proudly.
The Sword Fairy glanced at the various bigshots fervently discussing in the distance, spitting as they spoke, with so practically frothing at the mouth.
She huddled in the corner, shivering: "No one's paying attention to you guys."
Immortal Aunt: "???"
"Bidding, you know? Everyone is raving about their ideas and design plans, too many people want to stand out, it seems like no one is paying attention to us."
"A bunch of people are discussing the Tao! Predicting the future paths and explaining their ideas!"
"We also have to boast about our ideas to get the bid and stand out."
Immortal Aunt was perplexed: "Huh?"
They thought players were the unique protagonists.
After all, the design of the text plot centers around the players.
A group of people, surely questioning wildly: "What are you worth?" "Where did this young person co from?" "Must be soone fishing for fa,"
Just like those novel plots, a group of old scholars questioning the protagonist about their knowledge, then the protagonist courageously fights back, making the blacksmiths slap them in the face.
They had designed hundreds of Q&A routes and riddle-master plans...
But why is this plot different?
They are not afraid of being despised, but fear being ignored.
Because the highest level of contempt is: Ignoring.
— Now the birds are not even paying attention to us?
Immortal Aunt held back for a long ti and finally said: "Doesn't anyone want to know how we did this technique?"
Sword Fairy: "That group of fierce people has already researched a prototype of the Yin Yang Spirit Root, but the cost is too high..."
"anwhile, although our technique looks fresh, what's the current situation?"
"Nine-State's technology summit!!"
"In fact, outside the Xinyi Continent, there are several other continent's Holy Lands, ancient Great Sects, with profound foundations, bringing out their stash items, unprecedented new blacksmithing technology, new dical skills, even new spirit plant technology."
"We really are not noticeable."
She spoke very honestly.
In the steward's room, a group of blacksmiths felt a bit awkward, silent.
This wasn't the approach they expected.
This competition turned out to be such a way, the kind that tests true substance the most, which is unfavorable for blacksmiths like them!
If you want to stand out, you must fight for the opportunity yourself, blend into the crowd.
Sword Fairy said, "Broadcast it to you all, if you think you can, then join the discussion and use your superb technology to out-debate them! Win the bid!"
So.
A group of people perked up their ears to listen.
Cultivators who opened the Five-Body Realm had sensitive hearing, still able to hear the debates clearly amidst the noisy sounds.
Daojiu listened and shook his head.
He was exposed to various blacksmith talks, existing mature Divine Weapon forging concepts.
But what were they saying?
The most cutting-edge technology!
The most confidential advanced thods!
So say that on Earth, military technology leads civilian technology by twenty years, and it's the sa here.
These Holy Lands, Great Sects, each has its own faction, and they are talking about the most advanced, not yet fully perfected, rough technology!
Can't understand...
Completely can't understand!
Various high-level, incomprehensible terms.
Daojiu's face turned pale, shaking his head as he said softly to everyone: "I definitely can't out-talk them, we're done for!"
Everyone felt troubled upon hearing this.
Blacksmiths can brag and whip up a bunch of high-level terms.
But this just won't do.
Bragging with them, at what level are they? Unrecognizable as charlatans?
Now, this situation clearly shows that bragging is a wrong choice.
Bragging will certainly make us fools.
Would also ruin our mysterious and powerful Divine Craftsman's golden body, expose our old tricks, reputation ruined, turning us into the biggest jester in Nine-State.
Ning Zheng nodded slightly upon hearing this developnt.
This is the most reasonable!
How can blacksmiths possibly break through in a crowd of real powerhouses?
At this point in Ning Zheng's eyes, it was quite good, everyone was competing, and their manor was a little invisible, blending in to get by!
Not seeking brilliance, only seeking to pass smoothly, not exposing their fake identity!
"Right!"
Sword Fairy huddled in the corner, watching that group of academic greats crazily debating, couldn't help feeling sad as she began singing "Exaggeration":
"If soone asks , I'll speak, but no one cos."
"I look forward to the futile speech, getting no upload."
She sat on the threshold of the side hall door, listening to the loud discussions of Divine Craftsn, Divine Doctors, and Shennong behind her, with a sorrowful face, gazing at the sky outside the Imperial Palace:
"Eighteen years ago, the Divine Craftsman gathering, standing like a sidekick."
"I swore tearfully then, all of you must see ."
...
"What are you singing, it feels very bleak." Jian Xin sat nearby with his sword, appearing indifferent.
"I want to cry," Sword Fairy said.
"All are scholars, haven't learned the basic introductory books, 'Tao Discussion'?"
Jian Xin was accustod to watching that group debating at the summit, "That's what those people are like! All co from scholarly backgrounds, if you can't out-argue them, everything stops."
"And this arguing is very particular, technology, philosophy, insights... they are essentially competing with their foundations and talents."
"These are scholars standing at the peak of various domains, the Hundred Schools debating, convincing people with reason."
Now, everyone wants to compete to be the protagonist, to achieve unparalleled honor in history!
Sadly, we from the Otherworld, minor blacksmiths, cannot out-debate them, we are to be eclipsed among the crowd!
However, just at this mont.
In the steward's room, the Nightly Frenzied Cultivation Sixth Body spoke: "Competing purely based on substance is indeed our weak point, but I have a way."
Once these words fell, everyone turned their heads over.
"We can't out-talk these people, they're too good... but for us, it's not a bad way to play to our strengths, avoid weaknesses. If we don't compete, we won't be exposed."
"We will speak through actual actions, showcasing our advantages and talents..."
Nightly Frenzied Cultivation Sixth Body said:
"Live stream, start selling."
