As soon as the signal to start the match was given, the two immediately began forging.

Ming Sen of the Wu Clan was clearly a reincarnator skilled in forging. He first selected several alloy blocks of different materials.

These alloy blocks vary in hardness and toughness. To create an excellent knife that combines sharpness and strength, these alloy blocks must be forged together and repeatedly folded and forged to combine the properties of different materials.

On the other hand, Ning Chengyu was hammering and weighing several alloy steel ingots, and finally seemed to choose one randomly.

"Using only a single material?" Mingsen saw this and felt much more at ease.

"This guy is clearly an amateur. Forging a knife using a single material isn't impossible, but at least you should choose one with a decent hardness. This guy pretended to be picky for ages, and finally chose the softest one... Even after quenching, this material won't be very hard, and the knife made from it won't pass the test at all!"

With that in mind, Mingsen stopped paying attention to his opponent and focused on the materials in his hand.

After welding several steel ingots together, he put them into the furnace to heat them. When the temperature was about right, he took them out and placed them on an anvil.

Normally, at this point, the steel ingot should be flattened and lengthened while it's still hot, and then repeatedly folded and forged. However, Mingsen didn't look at the power hammer and hydraulic press tools; instead, his eyes were fixed on the red-hot steel ingot.

Under his gaze, the steel ingot began to deform, lengthen, flatten, fold, and then lengthen and flatten again, repeating this process over and over.

Compared to using tools, this steel ingot deforms automatically at a very fast speed and with extremely high efficiency, producing a regular and beautiful shape, and the adhesion between different materials is also very tight!

This is Mingsen's ability; he has the superpower to control metal. Although he can't shape it at will or create complex machines with a wave of his hand, he can easily make red-hot steel ingots take the shape he wants!

With this convenient capability, Narumi completed the shaping of the blade in a very short time.

Although the blade is still reddish, its shape is indistinguishable from the finished product. Moreover, its balance and material fusion are flawless. Even the world's top swordsmiths could not achieve a better result.

"Next, all that's needed is to heat and quench it again... With my help, the blade will absolutely not crack or warp. After that, once it's polished and the handle is attached, we can start testing..."

Mingsen checked the time; it had only been half an hour. At this speed, an average swordsmith probably wouldn't even have finished forging the steel ingot.

Ming Sen confidently looked across at Ning Chengyu, who was still forging steel ingots with a power hammer. Because it was a single steel ingot, his operation was relatively simple. Relying on the powerful attributes of the Reincarnator, he had already shaped the steel ingot into a size similar to a blade... However, the overall shape was crooked and uneven in thickness, and the subsequent adjustments would take at least several hours.

"I have at most half an hour left to start the test, kid. You're doomed!"

With such confidence, Mingsen increased the speed of his movements.

After being rushed to deliver and polished, the blade was already gleaming with a cold light. With the enhancement of Mingsen's abilities, the polishing process went extremely smoothly, and the blade was incredibly sharp. He plucked a hair and threw it out, and it slowly landed on the blade, where it was effortlessly split in two.

"Beautiful!" Narumi hissed excitedly, then began selecting materials to make the handle.

But just then, a hissing sound came from the other side.

"Quenched?" Mingsen was somewhat surprised by his opponent's progress. Looking up, he saw Ning Chengyu lifting a black iron sheet from the water tank...

That's his knife? It can't even be called a knife. The surface is uneven, the blade is noticeably curved, it's not sharpened, and you can't even tell which side is the cutting edge… That's it? Further modifications will take a lot of time; it'd be easier to just make a new one…

But just as Mingsen was complaining in his heart, the other party had already taken the broken piece of iron to apply for testing.

This is supposed to be a test? An amateur is an amateur. This guy doesn't even know how to forge a sword; he's just slacking off...

Mingsen was also curious about what kind of results Ning Chengyu could achieve.

The first step is to measure the dimensions.

Although Ning Chengyu's knife was crooked and uneven, its dimensions met the requirements, and after measurement, it was allowed to undergo three tests.

And so, Young Master Ning carried the iron plate to the first test, in front of the huge beast carcass hanging on the rack.

The requirement to pass the test is to cut the corpse in two with a single stroke.

Ning Chengyu had never seen this beast before, but it looked about the same size as a rhinoceros and had scales on its body. Even with a divine weapon, let alone a piece of iron, an ordinary person would not be able to cut it in two.

However, Ning Chengyu did not hesitate and stepped forward, swinging the iron plate and slashing with his knife!

brush!

With that one slash, the giant beast's corpse snapped in two, the cut clean and smooth, as if it had been sawn open!

What?!

Mingsen couldn't believe his eyes. That piece of scrap metal could never have cut such a notch! How did this guy do it?

"He fouled!" Mingsen shouted. "That's impossible! He definitely used some other ability!"

However, no matter how he appealed, he received no response.

The altar's judgment showed that Ning Chengyu's blade had no special abilities attached to it, yet he still managed to cut through it!

Next came the second test. As the test began, large feathers rained down from the ceiling, scattering like snowflakes. According to the rules, regardless of the number of cuts, as long as ten feathers were cut before they all hit the ground, it was considered a pass.

Faced with this test, Ning Chengyu still only made one cut. With a whoosh, the black blade swept through the scattered feathers. After all the feathers fell to the ground, he counted them and found that exactly ten had been cut open!

Seeing this, Mingsen finally understood: this kid may not know how to forge swords, but he is indeed a first-rate swordsman!

This guy never intended to forge any divine weapons from the beginning. He chose the softest material simply to make it easier for him to shape and quickly create something that met the specified dimensions. As for whether it was a knife, a piece of iron, or even an iron rod, it didn't matter!

Because he has reached the highest level of swordsmanship, where he can use anything—grass, trees, bamboo, or rocks—as a blade, he can complete these three tests with anything in his hands!

But how did he reach such a legendary level? Through his own cultivation? Mingsen would never believe it!

Sword master? No, even rare-level enhancements wouldn't have this effect! A unique, unparalleled sword grandmaster? Or something even higher?

Mingsen guessed correctly. In the two worlds before, Ning Chengyu did indeed obtain a unique level of sword mastery with his father's help! However, after being "educated" by Zhang Lang, this young master put away his previous arrogance and realized that he could not rely solely on the altar's enhancement; true strength lay in his own abilities!

Therefore, with the blessing of the Sword Master, he continued to hone his skills. Finally, by chance, he broke through the limitations of the altar's enhancement and advanced to the Sword Master level again, becoming the God of Swords!

Indeed, Ning Chengyu now possesses unparalleled swordsmanship skills, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him the number one swordsman among the twelve races!

Such a master swordsman can cut through anything with just a piece of scrap iron!

With a powerful slash, the boulder of the third test was also split in two!

Shenzu won the second match!
