Douluo: Legend of the Dragon King - The Voice of the Purple Emperor

Chapter 55 The God of Songs Will Be Born!

"Sure, ask away if you have any questions." Gu You agreed. The more shocked you were, the more he, Gu You, enjoyed that unique feeling.

"Are you really a level 5 blacksmith?" Mu Chen swallowed hard. A level 5 blacksmith at nine years old? Is that really something a human can do?

"Absolutely." A flash of white light appeared in Gu You's right hand, revealing a Level 5 Blacksmith Badge with the words "Heavenly Dou City Blacksmith Association" engraved on the back.

Mu Chen trembled as he accepted the medal. It really was real!

"Okay! Okay!! Okay..."

Mu Chen said "okay" three times in a row, "I'll get your Donghai school enrollment procedures done right away." After saying that, he left quickly without waiting for his daughter Mu Xi to finish her Level 2 Forging exam.

Gu You scratched his head. "So what if he's just a level five blacksmith? Is it really that big of a deal? He seems like some country bumpkin who's never seen the world. When Feng Wuyu first learned he had the talent of a master craftsman, he was only shocked for a few days..."

Mu Chen used his connections to obtain the soul guide number of Yu Zhen, the principal of Tianhai Academy. After a thorough conversation with him, Yu Zhen expressed his complete approval and said that he could enroll immediately.

"Principal, is there something you need?" Long Hengxu adjusted his glasses. Lately, this principal has been causing a lot of trouble, always targeting him.

"Here's the thing, Director Long. The East China Sea Forging Association said that a peerless genius will be coming to our school. I think the only class worthy of that person's reputation is your Class Zero. Once the formalities are completed, I'll arrange for him to join your Class Zero directly, how about that?"

"Ah! Of course, no problem. But has the East Sea Blacksmith Association agreed to sign our agreement?" Long Hengxu was somewhat disdainful. What kind of peerless genius would come to their East Sea Academy? There are many schools better than theirs. The East Sea Blacksmith Association is one of the few associations on the entire continent with Saint-level blacksmiths. If someone has good enough talent, which academy wouldn't want their students? Besides, with a second profession, low soul power isn't that important. Moreover, the Zero Class agreement is quite harsh. The general content is:

I voluntarily sign an agreement with Donghai Academy, agreeing not to transfer schools before completing my studies in the junior and senior high school sections of the academy, and that they will use all available resources to nurture me.

It sounds good, but it's clearly a restriction, a way to confine a group of geniuses to working for six or seven years.

……

There was silence on the other end of the phone. Finally, Yu Lian said, "No need to sign. It's already very kind of the East China Sea Forging Association to give us face. Besides, he really is a genius. When we first confirmed the information, I also felt it was unrealistic. Anyway, you'll understand later. With that genius, the academy's status will be elevated by a lot."

Long Hengxu's eyes widened immediately. No... he didn't need to sign? "But Principal, what if the other students find out..."

"Stop talking. I only told you because I trust your ability to keep secrets," Yu Lian joked on the other end.

"...Yes." The call ended.

Gu You checked the time; it was already past six in the afternoon. Mu Chen still claimed he could finish it in one day—it was just empty promises.

He had to wait so long, but during this time he wasn't idle. He still wandered around various forging workshops, observing other people's forging techniques and learning more about the properties of ores, in preparation for his future forging journey.

Boom!

Gu You's phone rang. He answered, "This is Mu Chen. I'm sorry, the enrollment procedures won't be completed until the next day. The government's approval process is too troublesome. I'll arrange a rest room for you later and have someone take you there. Feel free to make any requests, and I'll try my best to accommodate you."

Gu You was still in a daze when he heard the voice. So you all know my number, but I don't know yours? But that's not what angered Gu You the most. Couldn't you at least tell him before approving it? He has someone backing him up. An eight-star Saint Craftsman. Gu You didn't believe that he didn't know anyone in high places. If he really had any connections, it would have been done long ago.

"She did it! Miss, she did it! Miss Mu Xi did it!!"

The entire fifteenth floor of the Blacksmiths' Association erupted in a series of booming sounds.

"A thousand forgings! Miss has completed a thousand forgings; we have witnessed history."

Ok?

Gu You was also taken aback and laughed. If Mu Xi was history, then wouldn't he be a myth?

However, he didn't interrupt this enthusiasm; instead, he joined in the congratulations and applause, because everyone needs encouragement.

The noise subsided, and it was already evening.

Forging is a long process, usually requiring four or five hours to break through a level, and sometimes even six or seven hours. This is why Mu Xi's forging took so long, and she didn't succeed until the afternoon.

……

"Handsome...guest, please come in," Yun Xiaoling said with a smile.

"What a coincidence! It's you! I remember you were the front desk consultant?" Gu You replied with a smile.

Stepping into the room prepared by Mu Chen, it was very luxurious. Located on the eighteenth floor of the Forging Masters Association, this meant that the person held a very high position in the Forging Masters Association, and only high-ranking figures could stay here.

"Hehe, Lord Cen Yue saw that we knew each other and were even quite familiar, so he had me bring you here. To be honest, this is my first time being in such a high place." Yun Xiaoling leaned on the balcony of the room, her youthful beauty radiating.

Gu You shook his head. "Is that considered high?"

Yun Xiaoling was taken aback. "Isn't it tall?"

Gu You looked at the magnificent night view of Donghai City and said jokingly, "If I have the chance in the future, I'll try to get into a good university, preferably one that focuses on finance and business. Maybe I'll become a big boss by then and need the talents of people like you."

Yun Xiaoling chuckled. "I'm leaving." It was as if she had made up her mind, without any desire to linger at the view from the bottom of the well.

Gu You sighed and watched Yun Xiaoling push open the door and leave.

While scrolling through videos in bed, Gu You found some original songs from the Douluo Continent novels to listen to. You wouldn't believe how good they were until you listened to them.

What kind of "dog bar" is this? It's more like a "Soul Flying" section.

I registered an account on a playlist platform, and my ID was "A Dragon God".

Gu You rolled up his sleeves, ready to show the people of Douluo what a primary school student's divine song really looks like:

"The Lone Warrior" is a song with lyrics by Tang Tian, ​​music and arrangement by Qian Lei, and sung by Eason Chan.

After using the Douluo World AI software to adjust the audio, Gu You began to recall the lines little by little.

They were all brave...

Your worn-out doll, your mask, your ego...

It's like writing furiously, never finishing, never exhausting.
