Douluo Dragon King: The Hammer Nurtures All Things, Starting with Gu Yuena

The Douluo Continent has many top-tier forces, including the Spirit Pagoda, Shrek Academy (which has always been considered the leader), the War God Temple, the Blacksmith Guild, and so on.

In this day and age, everyone needs the Spirit Pagoda, but that doesn't mean people will let the Spirit Pagoda control them. After all, strength still reigns supreme in this world.

The Spirit Ascension Platform is part of the Spirit Transfer Tower, but it's not just that. After a Soul Master enters the Spirit Ascension Platform, they need to bind all their information and data, which is unacceptable to other top-tier forces.

Because the information and data of each of these powerful individuals are classified files and cannot all be disclosed to the Spirit Pagoda, the internal dedicated line was thus created.

With the technology provided by the Spirit Pagoda, these factions qualified to establish their own internal dedicated lines consume their own resources to build their own private servers. All the data belongs to that faction, and the Spirit Pagoda has no right to access this data, thus achieving strict confidentiality.

However, all the Spirit Transmission Towers and Spirit Ascension Platforms are under the surveillance of the Heavenly Spirit Tower. Although the data of individuals entering the Spirit Ascension Platform can be kept confidential, the Spirit Transmission Tower still needs to monitor and the basic data still needs to be uploaded, so complete anonymity cannot be achieved. This is why Zhenhua said that Lin Jin should only reveal his hammer martial soul identity.

The Spirit Pagoda has an obligation to monitor the life and death of everyone, a seemingly legitimate reason given that they control core data and other forces cannot refuse.

"For the next few years, let him stay in Aolai City to learn forging from you, and then study Soul Master knowledge and cultivate Soul Power at Hongshan Academy. At the same time, let him enter the Spirit Ascension Platform every week under a different identity, and participate in the riot period twice a year."

I will connect him to the Spirit Ascension Platform of the Heavenly Spirit Tower, where he can compete with the top geniuses of Shrek Academy for spiritual power and make a name for my Blacksmith Guild.

"Anyway, it should be enough for him to use the hammer spirit. In daily life, let him use the blue silver grass, and in the spirit ascension platform, let him focus on ascending the hammer spirit."

"Anyone would want to show off having such a genius disciple. Since we can't show off such a disciple in reality, let's make him utterly humiliate those Shrek Academy students and other geniuses on the Spirit Ascension Platform!"

"Great idea, senior brother. You really know how to play the game. You've arranged Xiao Jin's future perfectly, both low-key and high-profile, and absolutely safe."

Who would have thought that a peerless prodigy who dominated the Spirit Ascension Platform was actually just a Soul Master with a Blue Silver Grass Martial Soul from a small town? Amazing!

"Alright, that's all for today. I'll arrange for the equipment to be delivered as soon as possible so Xiaotian can build an underground secret room immediately. You can provide the materials; he doesn't have the money."

"Senior brother, that hurts." Mang Tian was a little embarrassed!

He recalled Yu Xiaogang's famous statement from 20,000 years ago: "I have nurtured a god."

I've discovered a master craftsman too!

"Don't worry, with me here, what's a little bit of material?" Mu Chen said confidently.

Upon seeing this, Zhenhua nodded repeatedly and then closed the communication.

However, sitting in headquarters, he was extremely unsettled at the moment, because the shock that Lin Jin had brought him was simply too great.

His junior brother actually managed to encounter such an extraordinary genius, and their blacksmith guild even managed to snag him.

He was certain that Lin Jin's talent was such that even at Shrek Academy, he would be a peerless genius who would be cherished and nurtured. As long as Lin Jin was cultivated, his Blacksmith Guild could be guaranteed to prosper for hundreds of years.

The more he looked at Lin Jin, the more pleasing he found him; the kid was just too endearing.

In high spirits, Zhenhua dealt with guild matters while also thinking about how to design the four-word battle armor and red-level mecha for Lin Jin...

……

After Zhenhua left, Mangtian and Muchen chatted for more than an hour before finally getting up.

Lin Jin then realized what was happening and looked at him, asking, "Teacher, are you leaving?"

"Okay, see you in three years."

Don't think that just because it's a small place, things will be easy from now on. You'll be busy in a couple of days. I'm sure you heard what the teachers were saying earlier, right?

"Hmm." Upon hearing this, Lin Jin immediately looked embarrassed. "I didn't mean to, you guys were just talking too loudly."

"That's perfect. I don't need to explain it to you again. Keep it up. I hope that in three years you will be a master craftsman at the spirit forging level. Then I will teach you soul forging."

"Thank you, teacher. Take care!"

Mu Chen quickly walked out of the studio, but then turned back to look at Brother Long: "Brother Long, keep it up! Your senior apprentice believes in you!"

After saying that, he transformed into a streak of light and flew away.

Brother Long: ? ? ?

Is he sick?

A world where only I am wounded has been born!

……

Meanwhile, in the office, after Mu Chen left, Lin Jin was obviously more casual: "Teacher, now that I've taken both my eldest and second senior uncles as my teachers, how should I address them from now on?"

I was really overwhelmed just now, so I just kept calling for the teacher.

"You can call them whatever you like, we don't care about that. You can even call them Master Uncle and Second Master Uncle again."

"Really?"

"Of course not. You've already kowtowed and performed the apprenticeship ceremony. From now on, Senior Brother Zhenhua will be your master, and Senior Brother Muchen will be your second master."

Although I was the first to take you in, I'm the weakest and the lowest in seniority among the three. It's impossible for me to be the head master, so just call me teacher. Otherwise, I'll shorten my lifespan.

"Okay, but teacher, is it really possible to remotely access the Ascension Platform? Isn't it dangerous?"

"What's the danger? No matter where you are, even if you're in the Spirit Transmission Tower, it's a virtual body entering the Spirit Ascension Platform, not your real body. What difference does it make where you are?"

Although ordinary Soul Masters must go to the Spirit Pagoda for on-site connection and verification, the Spirit Pagoda also has a remote access pod. It's not very stable, and the benefits may be greatly reduced due to the distance, but it's still quite good.

As long as you have authorization from the Soul Guidance Line and the Spirit Pagoda, you can use it anywhere on the mainland.

Don't worry about it. You just need to wait to enter the Spirit Ascension Platform. Make sure you perform well then. Your master and second master can see your performance through the Blacksmith Guild's exclusive channel. Be careful, or they might make things difficult for you.

"I understand, Master. Can I go back now?"

Xiaoying is sleepy, and I'm also very tired today. I want to go back and get some rest.

"You! Go away, go away, go away, just seeing you annoys me."

"Okay!"

Having obtained Mang Tian's permission, Lin Jin immediately ran off.

The first thing Lin Jin did after leaving Mangtian Studio was to go to a real estate agency.

Master Mu Chen left him those rare metals; any piece he took out was worth a fortune—these were all hard currency.

He's about to start his farming business, so he can't live in that old house anymore; there are too many people around.

With the enthusiastic introduction of the real estate agent, Lin Jin decisively chose a villa located in the remote suburbs of Aolai City. It faced the sea, was warm in spring and had flowers in bloom. The space was very large and looked very open. Lin Jin was very satisfied.

He pulled out two pieces of rare metal and bought them outright with the full amount.

After that, he bought a Soul Guide Truck, and finally went to the pet market and the slaughterhouse.

He bought every female animal imaginable—sows, dogs, cows, hens, ducks—and loaded them all onto a truck and drove them straight back to his newly purchased villa. He was about to embark on something big!
