Chapter 118: Senior Sisters



Chapter 118: Senior Sisters

Mang Tian was shocked at Mu Chens words. Isnt that too quick? Saint rank by thirty?

Mu Chen revealed a wry smile. You know what they say; the sooner the better. The important thing is that people have the most energy in their youth, and if they dont take advantage of that time to accomplish something, both the body and mind will begin to decline. My plans for him might seem hasty, but dont forget, hes only nine years old. He still has 21 years until he reaches thirty. If he cant do it in 21 years, then I fear it will be near impossible for him to ever reach that level. Wulin, what level is your spiritual power right now?

Tang Wulin answered, I just tested it today and its 66 points.

Spirit Connection realm? Mu Chen and Mang Tian exclaimed in unison, eyes sparkling with anticipation.

Nine years old and already at Spirit Connection. Just what did this mean? The two of them couldnt even comprehend it.

Mu Chen blurted out, No wonder your perception in forging is so great. Its because of your immense spiritual power. This is great; I dont have to worry anymore about whether you can fuse with another spirit soul or not. Now you just need to put all of your effort toward cultivating your soul power.

Tang Wulin said, I am certain I can earn enough money through forging to buy my own cultivation resources, so long as the association can help me find the items Im looking for when the time comes.

His confidence came from the fact that his income was increasing and that he would soon become a fourth rank blacksmith.

This was considering the fact that he still had to balance this with his studies. If he solely focused on forging, then he could support a prosperous family with his output and success rate.

Mu Chen wasnt anxious to guide Tang Wulin on how to practice forging yet. Instead, he simply arranged a time for when Tang Wulin would come to the association next.

Mang Tian and Mu Chen let Tang Wulin return to the academy first while the two of them stayed behind to discuss some matters.

After handing in his task and receiving his reward, Tang Wulin left the Blacksmiths Association.

Tang Wulins mood was great. After all, President Mu Chen was a Saint Blacksmith! With him as a second teacher, Tang Wulin wouldnt take any detours on the path of forging and would also have the associations resources at his disposal. Those four thousand year spirit items wouldnt be that hard to find anymore, as he would be able to obtain them as long as he had enough money.

He would forge and cultivate with all of his effort and break the second seal by the time he turned fifteen. This was Tang Wulins goal.

He clearly remembered what Old Tang had told him: there would be a nice surprise for him after breaking the second seal. But just what was this nice surprise?

The golden scales and dragon claw he had obtained after breaking the first seal had already greatly boosted his power and enabled him to barely enter the class of geniuses, class zero. Wouldnt he be on the same level as those geniuses after breaking the second seal then? The only issue remaining was his low soul power.

Although he was on the verge of breaking through to rank 14, Tang Wulin could feel the effects of the Golden Dragon Kings soul fragment disappearing. In other words, he couldnt continue as he had before as his soul power continued to increase naturally. In the end, cultivation was an endless process! The Golden Dragon Kings soul had mutated his Bluesilver Grass and made it much more powerful, but it didnt increase his cultivation speed at all.

Tang Wulin pondered over his future cultivation path as he left the Blacksmiths Association

Hey! A voice called out to Tang Wulin, rousing his from his contemplations. When he turned around, he was met with the sight of Mu Xi standing in the doorway. She stared at him with a complex expression.

Hello senior sister. Tang Wulin was surprised to see her. He didnt have any good impressions of Mu Xi after she displayed her bossy attitude in front of him.

Mu Xi said, Youve taken my dad on as your master, so you should call me senior disciple sister in the future.

Hello senior disciple sister. Tang Wulin greeted her in a docile manner. Thats right! She really is my senior disciple sister now.

Youre going back to the academy now? Mu Xi asked.

En. Tang Wulin nodded.

Mu Xi said, Then lets go. She took the lead to walk ahead.

Tang Wulin hurriedly caught up to her and began to awkwardly scratch his head. He really didnt understand why Mu Xi wanted to walk with him back to the academy.

So what do you think of Heavy Silver? Mu Xi asked.

A discussion about forging? Tang Wulins interest was piqued. Although Mu Xis blacksmith rank wasnt as high as Tang Wulins, she had been learning how to forge from Mu Chen all her life. Her views were definitely much broader than his own.

Heavy Silver is very dense, but its internal structure is actually granular. I am able to sense these granules transforming during the Thousand Refinements so I continuously try to pound them to decrease the gaps between the granules. Once the gaps are small enough, my Thousand Refinements is basically complete. I think Heavy Silver is actually very much suited for the Thousand Refinements because I can sense their joy during the process. They tell me just how much strength I need to use to make them the most comfortable. Like this, my Thousand Refinements require half the work with twice the effect. Tang Wulin spoke without the slightest hesitation of his experiences with Heavy Silver.

The metal speaks to you? Mu Xi was amazed by what Tang Wulin had said. This was because Mu Chen had spoken to her of the very same thing when she was a child.

At that time, she had asked her father how she should forge and in response, Mu Chen told her that the metal would tell her how.

Although Mu Xi was prideful, she couldnt help but submit to Tang Wulin at this moment. He actually experienced it himself!

The Thousand Refinements was when one understood the thoughts of the metal.

They walked the rest of the way in silence. Tang Wulin didnt mind the silence at all, he was just cheerfully thinking about his own matters.

Just like this, the two of them maintained a serene silence until they reached Eastsea Academy.

The sky was now blanketed in darkness.

As he walked toward the dormitory entrance, he saw someone sitting on the stairs leading to the door. Mu Xi was still lost in thought and didnt notice this person as she continued walking forward.

Senior disciple sister, be careful. Tang Wulin hastily pulled her back, preventing her from colliding with that person.

Mu Xi only felt a powerful pulling force on her hand so she instinctively began to struggle. Yet the hand that held hers was simply too strong and didnt move a single inch.

So powerful. He really does have innate divine strength.

The person sitting on the stairs finally lifted his head to look at Tang Wulin. Youre finally back.

Oh, its you. Tang Wulin looked at him with mild surprise. The person sitting on the stairs was his classmate and the Bone Dragon King Soul Master, Wang Jinxi.

Wang Jinxis expression was haggard, but his eyes were sparkling.

You can let go now. Mu Xis cold voice interjected.

Sorry. Tang Wulin quickly let go of Mu Xis hand.

Ah, Little Xi. You know each other!? At that moment, a pleasant voice came from behind. Tang Wulin turned around, his eyes shining.

A white-robed Ouyang Zixin stood there daintily. Under the focus of the dormitorys soul lights, her figure shown even further, making her seem even more beautiful. Her slender and straight legs created the appearance of a tall beauty who was brimming with the vigor of youth.

Fifth grades class one? They should be classmates.

Zixin? What are you doing here? Mu Xi brightened upon seeing her.

Ouyang Zixin walked over to Mu Xis side and hooked arms, quietly whispering a few sentences into Mu Xis ear.

Mu Xi blushed slightly. Go then. Lets go now. She began dragging Ouyang Zixin into the dormitory the moment she finished speaking.

Ouyang Zixin smiled at Tang Wulin and waved him goodbye. As he watched the two of them leave, he couldnt help but recall Xie Xies words.

There is a senior sister in the hearts of all youngsters.

Is she the senior sister in my heart?

A cold shiver overcame his body. What am I thinking? But she really is so pretty!

Wang Jinxi had already gotten up and now stood in front of Tang Wulin. Theres something I want to talk to you about. Are you free right now?

Tang Wulin helplessly said, Youve been waiting here so long already, so how can I refuse? Lets go then. Do you want to go to my place or yours?
