Chapter 170 Soul Master, a Sincere Offering of Ten Million! (Please Read On)

Lou Gao was quite surprised to see Dai Yichen so serious; it was a complete surprise!

Just as his disciple had said, Dai Yichen had no airs of royalty at all, and his attitude was very sincere and not arrogant at all. If this continued, he would make it seem like he was the one in the wrong.

Lou Gao then waved his hand and sighed, saying, "Your Highness, Fourth Prince, please don't be like this. This is not your fault, and you don't need to apologize to me."

You say you can elevate the blacksmith's influence to a new level? Just with these two weapons? I admit the Zhuge Divine Crossbow is indeed powerful, but what you're saying is a bit...

Dai Yichen laughed: "Senior Lou Gao, you're mistaken. You don't think I only have these two items, do you?"

"Huh?" Lou Gao was slightly taken aback, his eyes lighting up as he looked at Dai Yichen. "You said you have something even better? Take it out! Let me see!"

Lou Gao's attitude changed once again. For a pure craftsman like him, the allure of novel forgings was irresistible.

Dai Yichen shook his head: "Senior Lou Gao, where would I get so much time to make them? However, besides the blueprints for these two weapons, I have other things on me. I have two purposes for coming to the Blacksmith Association this time. One is to ask you to serve as the court blacksmith, and the second is to completely subdue the Blacksmith Association."

After saying that, Dai Yichen took out the blueprints for making the hidden arrow, the Zhuge crossbow, and the sealed milk bottle.

Lou Gao initially wanted to refuse, but after seeing the three blueprints, he couldn't help but pick them up and take a look. He understood the basics of making the hidden arrow just by looking at its appearance, and he also understood half of the Zhuge Divine Crossbow. Now, after seeing the blueprints, he understood everything!

What shocked him, however, was the third blueprint.

Soul-guided device—a sealed baby bottle!

"This...this is..." Lou Gao's voice trembled slightly, and his body shook as well. He was too excited!

How could there be such an exquisite weapon? No, it should be called a soul tool!

At this moment, he also understood what Dai Yichen meant by raising the influence of blacksmiths to a new level, and letting blacksmiths thoroughly learn new techniques, the techniques for making soul tools!

At this moment, Lou Gao's smile vanished, replaced by a serious expression: "These two weapons of yours are just the beginning. You want to innovate! You want the blacksmith to move to the next stage, hmm, a soul tool maker, a soul master, right?"

Upon hearing this, Dugu Bo looked at Dai Yichen with some surprise. A Soul Master?

Just how much of a shock will this little monster bring him?!

Dai Yichen chuckled: "Senior Lou Gao, you guessed right. The reason I'm taking out these two weapons, which are still mainly forged, is because the parts for these two weapons are not difficult to make. Any blacksmith with certain skills can complete them and finally assemble them."

But soul tools are a different story. Take this baby bottle soul tool I have, which can store soul power. Although some soul tool parts can be made by others, most of them need to be made by the soul tool master himself, and the difficulty of making it is not low for the current blacksmith association!

"Senior Lou Gao, may I ask how many blacksmiths in the association are capable of independently crafting ordinary soul-guiding devices?"

After pondering for a moment, Lou Gao said, "If we're talking about independent production, besides myself and my four disciples, there should be less than ten people."

"So few?" Dugu Bo was somewhat puzzled. In such a large blacksmith association, including Lou Gao and his disciples, there were only about ten people who could make and store soul tools?

Si Long, standing to the side, smiled wryly and said, "Senior Dugu Bo, you should know how many gold soul coins a basic storage soul tool costs on the market, right? Even a defective one costs several hundred gold soul coins, and a perfect one is basically over a thousand gold soul coins. It's precisely because there are so few people who know how to make them that the price is so high!"

Dugu Bo:

This amount of money wasn't much for him, but it might be a lot for others. Some small sects might only produce a few thousand gold soul coins a year, or even less.

white crane:

"That's enough. This is more than I imagined, Senior Lou Gao. You should know what I'm thinking, right? I want to gather the blacksmiths who can make soul tools, with you as the leader, to learn new soul tool techniques and train new soul tool masters at the same time."

"As for iron weapons such as the hidden blades and the Zhuge Crossbow, the parts are made by a group of blacksmiths who then sell them all over the continent. The blacksmiths who participated in the sale will receive 10% of the profits. How about that?"

"Of course, these weapons will be provided to our royal family first for arming. In return, we will provide you with the necessary manufacturing materials and funds for training Soul Masters."

Lou Gao's face showed a conflicted expression. To be honest, he was reluctant to get entangled with the royal family, but those weapons and soul tools were very tempting to his craftsman's heart.

Needless to say, Si Long was also deeply shocked by Dai Yichen's performance today.

In his view, those two weapons were advanced enough to bring a certain social status to their blacksmith association. The soul tools that followed were even more revolutionary. Soul tool masters were much more imposing than the name "blacksmith"!

Moreover, what the Fourth Prince calls "recruiting" is actually a large amount of money being spent on cultivating their blacksmith association!

There must be blacksmiths in the imperial city, and the royal family should also have a group of trusted blacksmiths, who are exclusively for the royal family.

Although their skills were not as good as his teacher's, their loyalty was beyond question. Dai Yichen really didn't need to come and recruit the blacksmith association, or rather, his teacher, himself. Training them from among his own people would just take more time.

But Dai Yichen still came, which shows his sincerity!

"Teacher" Si Long wanted to offer some advice. This was an opportunity for their blacksmith association and for all of them. Even if Teacher Si Long was unwilling to get involved in the complex situation of the two great empires or even the continent, he should still consider the association's situation!

For the first time in so many years, I've finally gained the attention of the royal family and gotten rid of that annoying Spirit Hall. How wonderful!

Before Ke Silong could speak, Dai Yichen took out another purple-gold card from his person and launched another powerful attack: "Senior Lou Gao, this card contains a total of ten million gold soul coins, which I obtained from my father. He also supported this trip. I have shown all my sincerity. Now it is up to you to choose."

Ten million gold soul coins!

So rich! So wealthy!

Not only Lou Gao and Si Long, but even Dugu Bo's lips twitched. He really lived up to Dai Yutian's reputation for being so rich and powerful.
