Weapon Master Chapter 58

Everyone on the stage was whispering to each other, while everyone below the stage was completely focused.
After approximately half an hour, the flames in Tang Huan's palm extinguished and the square piece of Spirit Flexible Iron had already transformed into the shape of a blade. In the blink of an eye, Tang Huan swept his gaze over, only to discover that there were only a few dozen people who completed it before him. He thought that he was slow enough, but to his surprise, he was even faster than the majority of the people present.
He originally didn't want to attract too much attention in the second trial. That way, he would be able to have an unexpected effect in the third trial.
But now, it seemed that many people would be interested in him.
Sure enough, after a while, Tang Huan noticed that many refiners' gazes had fallen on his body, especially the young man dressed in gorgeous clothes. When he looked at him, the expression in his eyes became somewhat gloomy, and his fair and handsome face had a sense of humiliation, as if he was being fooled.
What's wrong with this guy?
Tang Huan shrugged his shoulders and innocently blinked his eyes a few times.
Seeing Tang Huan's expression, the young man became even more embarrassed and angry, he coldly glanced at and turned his head. However, when the yellow dressed girl behind her saw this, she couldn't help but let out a delicate laugh. Although her smile was instantly withdrawn and her face was tense, it still revealed a moving charm.
Tang Huan no longer bothered with the surrounding gazes and directly sat on the ground and closed his eyes to rest.
"The second stage is over!"
When the rustling sound disappeared again, Qing Ye's voice rang out once more.
This clear and melodious sound was wonderful. However, to the many refiners who had yet to finish their blade-and-knife training, it was like hitting their heads with a wooden stick.
Shortly after, the noisy wails rose and fell one after another.
Tang Huan stood up, and realized that the number of refiners that had been eliminated this time, had reached at least a thousand.
"Begin the examination!"
More than ten weapons craftsmen entered the scene once again. Almost every once in a while, there would be an artificer who had been judged to be unqualified, walking out of the arena dejectedly.
When the test was over, there were only about five hundred people left.
"Congratulations on passing the second round. Next was the third and final stage of the Artifact Forging Competition. If there were only three people that had passed, then they would be the top three for this year's competition. If there are ten people who have passed this stage, then there will be two great masters, Gu Yi and Wu Xin, who will personally test for it and decide to rank here. " Qing Ye smiled and emphasized on the rule to judge the result.
The voice lingered, and the atmosphere in the sparse number of people in the arena began to become somewhat oppressive.
Other than a few refiners who were still maintaining a slightly relaxed expression, the rest of the refiners all had rather grave expressions on their faces. The difficulty of the third stage of the Artifact Forging Competition was greater than the first. The third stage was even more difficult, especially when the time limit was shortened.
"Everyone, the third stage has begun!"
After pausing for a moment, Qing Ye shouted, and the hourglass that had been replaced by a smaller hourglass suddenly flipped over.
This time, almost all the refiners were not in a hurry to take action. Instead, they were standing in front of the table, adjusting their breathing, calming their mind and concentration, and fusing the gem and the tool slab together was impossible by relying on speed; the more anxious they were, the easier it would be for problems to occur.
Tang Huan squinted his eyes, with a sly smile on his face.
As soon as Qing Ye finished speaking, Tang Huan's left hand grabbed the blade.

"Hu!"
In between mind instructs (in a second), the "Nine Yang Divine Furnace" and the spirit wheel had already been activated to the extreme, an exceptionally fierce flame sprayed out from the palm, instantly transforming into a huge dark red fireball. It actually completely wrapped around the palm, and the scorching Qi crazily spread out.
Previously, the strongest flame that appeared in the first trial was only the size of a basin.
However, the flame that Tang Huan was using, had a diameter that exceeded the length of the knife in his hand. The blade was about 90 centimeters long, but the flame reached a meter.
"Hiss!"
This huge commotion immediately attracted the attention of everyone on the martial field. Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air at almost the same time. Their eyes were wide open as they stared blankly like wooden chickens.
Earth-shaking cries of surprise immediately sounded out from the surroundings of the plaza.
"Hmm?"
On the high platform, the Patriarchs of Gu Yi, Wu Xin, Mu Kui, the Ocean Leviathan and the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City, who were originally sitting down, actually all stood up with faces full of disbelief. Only the two armored generals were still sitting there, their bodies slightly leaned forward with their eyes wide open. "Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love!"
"What happened to you?"
At the edge of the stage, Qing Ye had just turned around and walked towards his seat when he suddenly saw such a weird scene. He couldn't help but ask in surprise as he subconsciously turned his body back.
"This, this..."
Green Leaf's red lips parted, her beautiful eyes staring straight ahead.
She had just announced the start of the third stage and that brat had already created such a huge commotion, causing him to immediately become the focus of everyone's attention.
"Rustle, rustle!"
The hourglass inside and outside the plaza was not affected in the slightest, and the loud and clear voice was as clear as a string.
After Tang Huan made his move, all the attention was completely focused on the artifact slab in his palm, without the slightest bit of distraction due to the surrounding attention.
After a brief moment of blankness, the many artificers participating in the tournament finally regained their senses.
"What a fierce primordial flame! "Where did this kid come from?"
"I've paid attention to him before. The first stage is rather ordinary, but the second stage is a bit fast. However, I can't really be bothered about how he got to the third stage …"
"This fellow is really cunning. He hid his strength in the first two trials in order to amaze everyone in the third trial!"
"..."
Everyone cried out in surprise, and their expressions were filled with shock. Such a violent flame was completely beyond their imagination. Was this still a low-ranked weapons craftsman? Even a middle tier blacksmith could not have such a powerful flame! Could that be the disguise of a high level weapons craftsman?
It seemed impossible. All the participating artificers were registered in the Divine Armament Hall. Who could fake it? As for the Divine Armament Hall himself, he would not do such a thing!
"Who is this little bastard?"
The well-dressed young man seemingly gnashed his teeth as he growled in a low voice. His handsome face also had an unsettled expression.
After seeing Tang Huan's performance in the first stage, he had forgotten about him.
After he had completed the second stage of the test in advance, he had inadvertently taken a glance at it and felt a trace of wariness rise up within him. He was also an experienced and knowledgeable person, and faintly felt that the method Tang Huan used to train the Spirit Soft Iron blade was somewhat unusual, it was kind of like the kind of "Great Wave Sands".
But he could not be sure, and even so, he still viewed Tang Huan with some importance.

However, he had never expected that Tang Huan's strength would actually far exceed his own expectations. In the previous two trials, she had only been deliberately hiding it all.
"Un, something is amiss..." After staring at the flame in front of Tang Huan for a while, the young man's face suddenly changed.
"White Flame Core!" It's a white flame! " A young man shouted in shock.
"Among the five elements, white is gold! He is a metal attribute refiner of the five elements! " Immediately, some people came to their senses. They were so shocked that their jaws almost fell to the ground.
"Metal-type blacksmith?" It's actually a metal attribute artificer? "
"I heard that Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City has produced a twelve meter long totem flame, and a physique that belongs to the five elements. Could it be him?"
"Impossible, impossible! It's only been two months and his True Fire and refining level can already be raised to such an extent?"
"..."
Shocked exclamations continuously sounded in the arena.
"Five Elements, Gold …" "The five elements are metal …" The well-dressed young man finally woke up. His face was ashen, and his teeth had nearly shattered from clenching.
"This person is deeply hidden!"
Not far behind the well-dressed man, the yellow dressed woman let out a long sigh. Her red lips slightly parted, and her voice was like a mosquito's buzz as she muttered to herself. A strange light flashed within her pair of enchanting dark blue eyes.
"Aiya, this time's' Weapon Refining Competition ', my chief is definitely going to fail." At the front of the arena, a baby-faced little girl blinked her eyes a few times before being jolted awake.
"I've long heard from Senior Mu Kui that there is a very powerful low rank Refiner in the Nu Lang (Furious Waves) City, is that him?" An elderly man dressed in black could not help but exclaim.
"..."
At this moment, the surrounding area in the plaza was filled with wave after wave of loud noise.
"Dark horse!" He's definitely the biggest dark horse in this Refining Competition! "
"This Refiner... It was really good to hide. In the first two stages, one did not reveal his true abilities, but in the third stage, he suddenly displayed his strength, shocking everyone to the point that they almost choked. "
"There's no way this person is a low-rank blacksmith, not even a mid-rank blacksmith, but a high-rank blacksmith. Otherwise, how could he possess such a powerful flame?"
"Bullshit!" He's a low-ranked weapons craftsman, moreover, he has fused with the 'True Fire' only two months ago! "
"..."
"Haha, I recognize him. He seems to be called Tang Huan. "I was at the weapon store in the sea of stars that day, and I just happened to see him use the 'Shadow Fire Totem' in the weapon shop to ignite a twelve-meter totem flame. What's even more unbelievable is that he also has a physique that belongs to the metal element!"
"It's really my first time seeing a metal-attribute refiner!" I wonder how he succeeded! "
"The time he took to successfully fuse the 'True Fire' was so short, yet he was able to ignite such a terrifying flame?"
"Otherwise, how could he be a genius! Needless to say, the champion of this year's Artifact Forging Competition will be this guy. "
"..."
"Five elements are metal. Five elements are metal …" Totem fire … Twelve meters of totem fire … It was actually him … He is that Tang Huan! "
On the high platform, Gu Yi was mumbling something. His face was filled with shock that was difficult to hide and his eyes were wide open. After a long while, Gu Yi suddenly turned his head and said, "The low rank blacksmith who forged that long spear should be that person, right?"
"Exactly."
Mu Kui slowly nodded, and Qing Ye also walked back, both of their eyes were filled with deep shock. They were well aware of the situation of the guy below. In just a short span of two to three months, the "True Fire" had unexpectedly risen to such an unimaginable level.
