C26 Crafting Bet
Su Chen looked coldly at the rushing figure and spoke in a cold voice, "Since his target is me, then let me face him. Wouldn't it weaken the reputation of Profound Weapon Shop by bullying others?"
Seeing Su Chen's sudden burst of confidence, Shop Lord Wang, Master Gongzang, Artifact Master Liu and the others couldn't help but feel shocked. Su Chen had returned two days after his disappearance, which gave them a lot of surprises.
Not only did he obtain the power to cultivate, but he had also changed from a servant to an Artifact Master. He had even gathered Mass of Stars and obtained the ability to refine Artifact Mark Origin Tool. More importantly, when he was dealing with Zhang Qiang... He also showed great fighting ability. This made him seem like an omnipotent little Vajra in everyone's eyes.
At this moment, the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion had descended upon the Purple Town. It seemed like they had the intention of catching all of them in one fell swoop. At this critical moment, Su Chen raised the flag of protecting the Profound Weapon Shop.
When the five men arrived in front of him, he raised his right foot and took a quick step forward. His body also leaned to the right like a longbow. His opponent's fist brushed past his shoulder and hit nothing. Wang Tong did not hesitate to swing his fist down. This showed his extremely fast adaptability.
"Hehe, your speed is so slow. How can you fight with me?" Unfortunately, he was facing Su Chen. No matter how fast he reacted, he still couldn't touch half of Su Chen's clothes.
Su Chen seemed to know every movement of his. As soon as he launched his attack, he had already made the most appropriate dodging method, which shocked Wang Tong.
"Damn it! Look at my Burning Curtain!" Wang Tong shouted. A trace of red light flashed across his eyes. As he opened and closed his hands, a three meter wide Fire Curtain appeared and flew towards Su Chen.
"Be careful, that's the fire controlling technique!" Master Gongzang, who was standing at the side, hurriedly warned when he saw this scene.
"So what if it's the fire control technique? In the end, it's just self-serving." Su Chen laughed lightly and easily bypassed the fire curtain. He extended his palm from behind Wang Tong's back and slapped out. Caught off guard, Wang Tong rushed forward and crashed into the fire curtain.
With a whoosh, Wang Tong's clothes were burnt. His hair was burnt, even though he had withdrawn the flames in time. However, he was still in a sorry state. The old man who was standing at the side was also stunned by the strange scene in front of him. He frowned and looked at Su Chen. His eyes were full of scrutiny.
"Interesting. A mere Fourth Grade Yuan warrior can easily deal with a Sixth Grade Yuan warrior. I really underestimated you. However, the difference in level cannot be made up for by any ability. You have spent all your time strengthening your combat strength. Naturally, the Artifact Forging Technique won't be that strong." The old man said with interest.
"That's not necessarily true. My Artifact Technique is nothing in front of Master Gongzang and Artifact Master Liu. But if it's against your useless subordinates, it's more than enough. " Su Chen curled his lips and cried out.
"Oh, what a big tone. Since you are so confident in your Artifact Technique, why don't we make a bet?" The old man looked at Su Chen and sneered.
"Tell me about it." Su Chen said.
"I have countless disciples, and the most outstanding ones are Wang Li and Wang Tong. Wang Tong was defeated by you in the previous fight, and I want you to compete with my eldest disciple, Wang Li in weapon forging. Do you dare?" The old man patted the shoulder of the young man beside him and said with a smile.
The young man's body was upright, his eyes were sharp, and his body had a kind of supreme spirituality. He was young and talented, and coupled with his rare steadiness, he was indeed an extremely powerful opponent.
"Why wouldn't I dare? Your eldest disciple seems to be quite imposing, but I don't know if it's a silver spearhead or not." Su Chen said provocatively to Wang Li.
Hearing Su Chen's words, a trace of anger flashed across Wang Li's face. But he still restrained his emotions and did not say anything. However, when the old man saw that his goal had been achieved, he couldn't help but gradually withdraw his net. "The Artifact Technique Competition is a sacred and inviolable move. We can't take it lightly. I think we need to add some bargaining chips. What do you think? "
"Of course, no problem. I just don't know what you mean by bargaining chips?" Su Chen asked.
"If you lose, you will join our Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion and become our loyal Artifact Master. You are not allowed to go back on your word for the rest of your life. Do you dare?" The old man narrowed his eyes and looked at Su Chen. His face was full of provocation.
"Su Chen, you can't! He is trying to provoke you!" Master Gongzang couldn't help but speak.
"That's right. That Wang Li is a high-grade tier 7 Artifact Master. You're no match for him." Shop Lord Wang also spoke hastily, afraid that Su Chen would fall into that old man's trap.
After listening to their advice, Su Chen turned his head and winked at them. His face was full of mischief. Seeing that he didn't act on impulse, as if he was teasing that old man, the two of them finally relaxed.
"I'm just a small Fourth Grade Artifact Master. It's not worth it for you to make such a big fuss." Su Chen pursed his lips and said in a serious manner.
"Whether it's worth it or not is our business. Whether you dare or not is what you have to consider now." Wang Li took a deep breath and opened his mouth to speak. "If you don't even have the courage to spar with the Artifact Technique, I advise you to stop early and change your mind."
"Don't make it sound so unpleasant. There is nothing in the world that I don't dare to do. It's just that I have always been a person who does not shed tears until I see a rabbit and a coffin. Before you guys take out any bargaining chips that can move my heart... I won't agree to spar with you guys." Su Chen raised his eyebrows and shouted.
"If you win, I guarantee that you will go to the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion headquarters to participate in the core disciple trial. As long as you can successfully advance, you can become a core disciple of the Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion. From there, you will obtain the right to allocate 300,000 gold taels and the right to allocate 100 attendants..." The old man's voice was bright and full of temptation.
"I don't need any of these. If I win, I only want you to get out of the Purple Town and never step into the Purple Town again." Before the old man could finish his words, Su Chen shouted.
After Su Chen's words left his mouth, the entire arena fell into silence.
"If I agree to your request, will you agree to spar with Wang Li?" After pondering for a moment, the old man asked Su Chen word by word.2
"That's right..." Su Chen nodded.
"Su Chen doesn't want it!" Shop Lord Wang and Master Gongzang, who were standing at the side, saw Su Chen putting on a fake show. They could not help but shout at the same time to remind him.
"Alright, since you have such guts, then I will give you a chance. Ten days later, in the branch of Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion, you will have a fair Artifact Technique duel with my eldest disciple, Wang Li. You have lost. According to the agreement, you will join our Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion and accept my orders while you are still alive. If we lose, we will withdraw from Purple Town as you said. " The old man was afraid that Shop Lord Wang and the others' opinions would affect Su Chen, so he hastily shouted.
"Very good. In ten days, I will make all of you scram obediently." Su Chen narrowed his eyes and called out.
"Is that so? I am afraid you do not have that ability!" In the verbal battle, Wang Li went forward and signed a blood contract with Su Chen, representing that their agreement had taken effect.
"Su Chen, you will regret it." After signing the blood contract, both of them shook hands. Wang Li looked at Su Chen with confidence.
"Don't be so proud of yourself. I never know how to write the word regret." Su Chen shook his head and said.
"Is that so? Are you sure you can defeat the Dazzling Light Origin Tool refined from a tier 7 Origin Tool Master using the Dazzling Light Flame?" Wang Li sneered. A flame that kept jumping appeared on his right hand.
Although the flame was small, it was extremely bright and scorching. It was as dazzling as the noon sun, and it was enough to cause one to temporarily lose sight.
The sudden light caused everyone in Profound Weapon Shop to feel a sharp pain in their eyes. More importantly, their originally hopeful hearts had completely sunk at this moment.
Not only had Wang Li reached the seventh grade of Origin Tool Master at such a young age, he also had the ability to control fire. To be able to abandon the traditional forging method and carry out intentional forging, he could definitely be considered a genius in the world of refining. Such a person could be considered a first-class genius even in the Wuyang, let alone in the Purple Town.
On the other hand, it had only been a few months since Su Chen had advanced from a servant to an Artifact Master, and his strength was only at the Fourth Grade. Despite his outstanding talent and astonishing talent, he was considered the number one rookie in the Profound Weapon Shop's Purple Town branch. However, in front of Wang Li, he still looked dull and dull.
"This is bad. Su Chen has been fooled." Shop Lord Wang and Master Gongzang couldn't help but frown when they saw this scene. They secretly cursed in their hearts.
"Su Chen, you should have seen my strength by now. You just have to wait ten days before joining our Heavenly Cauldron Pavilion." Wang Li looked at Su Chen with a smile, his eyes were full of cunning.
"You guys are so insidious!" Su Chen did not expect Wang Li to be so powerful. He frowned and a trace of anger flashed on his face.
"As the saying goes, you are good at war. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for being too naive. Haha. " Wang Li smiled complacently at Su Chen, then followed the crowd and left. Only Su Chen was left standing there in a daze.
"Don't worry, we can think of other ways." Shop Lord Wang walked up to Su Chen and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him.
"Su Chen, you are too arbitrary in this matter. You should at least discuss it with us. They have obviously come prepared. How could you agree to this bet so easily?" Master Gongzang sighed repeatedly. His eyes were full of hatred.
"Shop Lord, Great Master, don't worry. Although that Wang Li has some talent, it won't be easy for him to defeat me." After hearing what the two of them said, Su Chen said faintly.
"You are only a Fourth Grade Yuan expert, and it has only been a few months since you started refining. How can you defeat that Wang Li? I think it's better to think of a way out." Master Gongzang sighed and said.
"That's right. Unless you can advance by three grades in ten days, and your refining skills can also be improved by the Rebirth Technique. More importantly, you also need a type of spiritual flame that is comparable to the Dazzling Flames, and you also need to know how to control fire... " The more Shop Lord Wang spoke, the more powerless he became, and the more he spoke, the less confidence he had. In the end, even he himself did not want to continue speaking.
Seeing how the two of them cared about him so much, Su Chen couldn't help but feel a warmth in his heart. He respectfully bowed to the two of them and leisurely said: "I will remember your care in my heart, but since I have already stepped into the path of artifact forging... If I can't even handle a small challenge, I will naturally have to make some progress. How can I talk about the future? How can I have the face to meet my foster father? "
After listening to Su Chen's words, the two of them deeply felt his strong heart. Shop Lord Wang took a deep breath and nodded slowly. He patted Su Chen on the shoulder and said, "Good. You have ambition and perseverance. I think of you."
"Since you have made up your mind, we will not say anything more. If you need us, just tell us. We will do our best to help you. Even if you're unfortunate enough to be defeated, we'll find a way for you to escape. " Master Gongzang saw Su Chen's firm attitude, so he could only nod and say.
"Thank you, both of you!" Su Chen bowed deeply, then turned around and left.
