Douluo Continent: I, Tang Wulin, a Kamen Rider

Chapter 38 Nine years old, a level four blacksmith!

Meanwhile, as they were talking, Mu Xi overheard their entire conversation.

Looking at the young man in the studio, Mu Xi's heart began to waver.

You should know that she was personally taught by her father, an eighth-level master craftsman!

But when faced with the young man who was forging, even she, who had always considered herself a forging genius, began to have doubts.

And just then.

"This is?!"

After hearing the dull thuds of the hammer striking the metal.

Mu Chen and Cen Yue, who were watching, suddenly widened their eyes and stared intently at Tang Wulin in the studio.

Seeing the shape of the sunken silver change three times after Tang Wulin's hammer fell, Cen Yue, whose eyes were wide open, finally understood.

"Stacked hammers, top-notch special effects!"

The so-called "stacked hammer" refers to performing a hammer blow simultaneously with the force of the first blow.

Even two consecutive strikes have a significant effect on refining and forging metal, so it is also known as a top-notch special effect!
But now, Tang Wulin's hammer is striking dozens of times in the instant it falls!

Moreover, Tang Wulin's hammer technique was perfectly natural and completely unlike the way Mang Tian used a hammer in Cen Yue's memory!

Upon hearing this, Mu Xi, who was standing to the side, also stared intently at Tang Wulin's movements with her beautiful eyes.

time flies.

"Ding!"

A clear, resonant sound echoed throughout the forging room, and on the forging platform, the piece of silver metal, which was already gleaming with a silvery-white light, appeared.

At this moment, under the fierce blows of the small hammer in Tang Wulin's hand, it suddenly shone brightly!
A fiery red light suddenly shone from the surface of the silver, so bright that even Mu Chen, an eighth-level master craftsman, couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"Aura emanates outwards, refined a thousand times to the highest grade!"

The next second, with a "beep" sound, the studio door opened!
"It's finished, Master Cen. You can check it now."

Tang Wulin remained calm, seemingly without exerting much effort, and spoke to Cen Yue.

As the door opened, a piece of radiant metal made of sunken silver was revealed before everyone's eyes.

Seeing this, Mu Chen and Cen Yue fell silent. Even Mu Xi, who had been silently watching from the side, opened her mouth slightly and looked at the piece of silver.

an examination?
What's the point of investigating this?!

The brilliance emanating from it was almost blinding!
However, this also means...

Just now, Tang Wulin, who is only nine years old, actually broke the record of the Forging Masters Association and even the entire forging industry right under their noses.

At the age of nine, he forged a first-grade item through a thousand refinements!
Nine years old, a level four blacksmith!

After a while, Mu Chen coughed lightly and beckoned the staff to go down and process the certification for Tang Wulin.

Then he stepped forward and looked at Tang Wulin with a creepy, uncle-like smile.

"Ahem, Wu Lin, right? No need for further examination. I am the head of this department and the president of the association. I hereby announce that you have passed the test. From now on, you are a Level 4 Blacksmith. Please wait a moment while our staff assists you."

"Oh, by the way, is this piece of metal of yours easy to sell? Uncle, I'm willing to buy it for two million."

"Don't be afraid, this is a perk for you to join our Blacksmith Association. Oh, by the way, this is my daughter, Mu Xi."

“She’s a blacksmith just like you, though she’s not as talented as you. But I think you young people should have some things in common.” As he spoke, Mu Chen pulled Mu Xi, who was standing to the side with a complicated expression, over.

Seeing this, Tang Wulin revealed a kind and gentle smile.

"Hello."

Mu Xi nodded absentmindedly in response.

"Hello."

Seeing this, Mu Chen sighed inwardly, but he did not go forward to offer any words of comfort.

If you want to leave the shelter of a big tree and spread your wings, you must first learn to be independent.
All along, thanks to his status as an eighth-level master craftsman, Mu Xi's path has been too smooth.

This is precisely what shaped his rather arrogant personality and his incredibly fragile self-esteem.

The boy in front of her was merely a child raised under the tutelage of Mang Tian, ​​a sixth-level grandmaster burdened with enormous debts. He simply did not have the same privileged conditions as her.

However, his current achievements have made even this eighth-level master craftsman feel extremely shocked!
"Let her think about it herself."

Mu Chen frowned, looking at Mu Xi with heartache, and thought to himself.

Indeed, for a moment, he also regretted bringing his daughter to the association today.

After all, he originally just wanted to test Mu Xi's recent progress.

But unexpectedly, they encountered a true forging genius!
His daughter, though also considered a genius.

But it's clear that there are differences even among geniuses!
Tang Wulin's talent has already visibly surpassed Mu Xi's by a great deal.

but
Looking at his daughter, whose expression was complicated and who no longer had her usual arrogance, Mu Chen felt a mix of exhaustion and relief.

Indeed, he hoped that by letting his daughter witness firsthand that there are always people more capable than herself, he could change her arrogant personality.

But now it seems that the effect is better than he expected.

Didn't you see how everyone's silenced his little darling?

Just as Mu Chen was pondering whether or not to comfort Mu Xi, Cen Yue had already put his arm around Tang Wulin's shoulder.

Then he revealed the same strange expression as Mu Chen just now, like a middle-aged man trying to abduct a child.

"Oh, little Wu Lin, you really make your uncle happy."

"I never expected that you, so young and fair-skinned, looking just like a little girl, would have such strength when you swung the hammer."

In response to the teasing about his appearance, Tang Wulin said with some helplessness.

"I guess I was born with superhuman strength."

Cen Yue, however, remained unconcerned and continued speaking.

"I see. No wonder you're so strong. It seems I misjudged you before. It was my fault. I apologize to you."

"No need for that. I'm already used to my appearance." Tang Wulin sighed, somewhat speechless.

There was no way around it; he was cute and handsome from a young age, and after awakening the bloodlines of the ancient dragon and the Blue Silver Emperor.

He remains a staunch advocate in discussions about "the number one heartthrob of Hongshan Academy and the number one little girl of Aolai City"!
So he was really used to Cen Yue looking at him that way.
