  Zhen Hua smiled. “Surprising, isn’t it? Actually, there has always been a legend circulating in our blacksmiths’ world. Legend has it that there can never be two Divine Craftsmen in the world at the same time. Thus, you should know how surprised I was on the day you succeeded in becoming one.”


  Tang Wulin could not help asking, “Why is that so?”


  “It the law of the balance between heaven and earth. Although we only possess a sliver of god’s strength, there’s also the creation power too! Do you think that, with such powers, the plane will allow our existence in large numbers?”


  “If there are a number of us, wouldn’t our world lose its balance? In reality, the appearance of the four-word battle armor is one of the reasons behind the extinction of the soul beasts. The powerful soul beasts wouldn’t be suppressed and totally annihilated by us if not for the presence of the four-word battle armor.”


  “Now, we’ll talk about the second reason. It’s the reason why I haven’t stopped you from using multiple types of spirit alloys. I’m aware of your inner secrets. By the time I lose my forging ability, I believe that you’ll carry on the legacy and become the new generation of Divine Craftsmen. You’ll have gone through countless accumulation by then and certainly achieve a remarkable breakthrough. At the same time, you’ll need to have a new objective. There has never been any blacksmith in history who is capable of completing the Heavenly Refinement of seven types of metals. The best record is six types. You’re a genius. So, you should give it some thought and perhaps make history in the future?”


  “I’m an ambitious man. To be more precise, I have high hopes on you. Although I’m no longer capable, I’ll have no regrets in my life if my successor is able to break the record. Wulin, do you know that this is my only dream ever since I became a Divine Craftsman?”


  “I don’t want you to ever think that you can’t do it. So what if you need to forge a whole new set of four-word battle armor? You’ll never achieve breakthrough to the pinnacle of the world in your lifetime if you concern yourself with trivial matters. Something peculiar is happening when things go wrong. The existence of two Divine Craftsmen at the same time may signify that the laws in our world are undergoing some unknown changes, possibly indicating a catastrophe. You’re the one chosen by the plane. You’ve a heavy responsibility on your shoulders whereby you may turn out to be the savior of the entire plane. Thus, you must walk the path with an indomitable will. You must continue with your best effort regardless of how tough and dangerous it is!”


  “You’ll certainly succeed. You may not be able to do it now, but you’ll be successful in the future. You’re a Title Douluo. What will be the extent of your endurance when you’re a Hyper Douluo? How much elemental calamity can you endure now? How much will you be able to endure when you achieve the Limit Douluo cultivation base then? Hence, how can you say that you’re incapable of completing the Heavenly Refinement comprised of seven types of metals? I believe that you can do it, for sure.”


  Zhen Hua became more animated as he spoke such that he was almost getting hysterical.

  It was Tang Wulin’s first time seeing his uncle master behaving in such a way. How could he not be affected by his uncle master’s emotions?

  Tang Wulin began to learn about forging since he was six years old. He could still remember vividly when he first picked up his forging hammers to forge a piece of metal. He recalled the intense pain his hands suffered. The calluses and blisters were still clear in his mind.

  To become a soul master, he had been persistent even under those circumstances. He walked the arduous path a step at a time, until he finally reached the pinnacle of the blacksmiths’ world today.

  Forging was no longer his profession but rather his passion. He loved forging deeply. It was a deep love indeed!

  Nothing mattered more to a person filled with passion.

  Uncle master was right. Even if he could not do it now did not mean that he could not do it in the future. So what if he became a four-word battle armor master later than the others? As soon as he completed his four-word battle armor comprised of seven types of spirit alloys, he would certainly be able to inherit the Atlas Douluo’s legacy by then to be at the zenith of today’s world!

  A similar fervor began to appear in Tang Wulin’s eyes.

  Zhen Hua nodded satisfactorily as he noticed Tang Wulin’s emotions being ignited. Zhen Hua patted Tang Wulin’s shoulder.

  Zhen Hua had given his pep talk. Tang Wulin would need to continue the rest of the path by himself.

  The Joust For A Spouse’s round-robin match had begun officially.

  The match for the first day had begun when the situation became tense. The collision between the contestants of the first group resulted in one of the contestants being severely injured. He lost an arm and suffered a punch which left a huge hole in his chest. Had it not been for the full effort of the Spirit Pagoda’s recovery-type soul masters, the contestant would have died.

  On the other hand, the sight of fresh blood had ignited the fervor of the contestants. Meanwhile, the Spirit Pagoda’s Ten Thousand Beast Platform was officially opened to the public in a grand ceremony. The first location to open was in Mingdu City. As to when the other locations would be open, the Spirit Pagoda had yet to make the announcement.

  Two hundred people surged into the Ten Thousand Beast Platform. The person who spent the shortest time inside only lasted fifteen minutes before he was transported out. On the other hand, the person who lasted the longest managed to stay inside for seven hours. When he finally left the Ten Thousand Beast Platform, one of his spirit souls had advanced from a hundred to a thousand years!

  Even though five million was considered a large amount for the higher ranked soul masters, it was still a number they could afford. They discovered that one’s powerful abilities would not ensure that one would be able to last for a longer period of time in the Ten Thousand Beast Platform. The soul master who managed to sustain for seven hours inside was only a six-ring Soul Emperor.

  What was the most important factor in the Ten Thousand Beast Platform? It was luck!

  It was luck, precisely. If a person were to encounter a one-hundred thousand year soul beast upon entering, then it could be considered a misfortune. However, if one did not encounter any powerful soul beasts, then one could possibly sustain for a longer period of time.

  The Spirit Pagoda gave a badge to each entrant of the Ten Thousand Beast Platform after it had officially opened. It was similar to the spirit ascension platform whereby the entrant could activate the badge to transport himself out from the Ten Thousand Beast Platform upon encountering any danger that was deemed lethal. It was more humane than the earlier tests as it ensured the safety of the participating soul masters.

  All the contestants who won were the expected winners of the respective matches after the first day of the competition had ended. The soul masters who were capable of passing four rounds of elimination matches to enter the round-robin match were not only powerful in their abilities but were also very experienced in actual combat. To knock out each other would not be an easy task.

  On the other hand, the matches on the second day received even more attention than the first day’s. It was because Tang Wulin and Qiangu Zhangting would be appearing in the match of the third group. According to the sequence, they would encounter each other during the last round of the round-robin match. Although both of them would not be fighting against one another prior to that, due to the attention garnered, the price of a scalper ticket for the second day matches cost an additional thirty percent.

  There were other reasons which contributed to the situation. Lan Fozi from the fourth group was going to appear in this round too.

  The fight between Lan Fozi and Tang Wulin in the coliseum earlier was a great attraction to the public. They were reputed to be powerhouses of the same rank. Lan Fozi’s appearance attracted much attention too without a doubt.

  Night had set in. Tang Wulin strolled leisurely on the streets of Mingdu City with his hands in his pockets.

  Ever since he came to Mingdu City, he felt carefree for the first time today. The reason was simple. He was trying to relax himself.

  He had been cultivating on a really tight schedule the past few days. Tang Wulin hardly had any rest during the entire process of cultivation, as he regarded the Heavenly Refinement as a cultivation technique. He had spent every day cultivating and enduring the elemental calamity while absorbing the energy of the lightning. Both Tang Wulin and his Thunderclap Nether Vine had been in an almost saturated state all this while.

  Despite the Thunderclap Nether Vine’s love for lightning, it felt the lightning was too much even for itself. Fortunately, Tang Wulin still had his three other great spirit souls. The terrifying destructive power of the heaven and earth’s law within the elemental calamity was filtered by the Thunderclap Nether Vine and Tang Wulin. It was extremely beneficial for his three other great spirit souls.
