Buzz—
Zhang San felt like his head had been hit by a hammer. He felt like he was about to faint.
However, the feeling wasn’t pain but joy.
Extreme excitement darkened his vision.
Is this what it feels like to have money fall from the sky?!!
He was about to be knocked unconscious.
The last time he felt this way was when he was rewarded with a pill that could allow people to break through a realm.
Previously, outside the karst cave, Zhang San and his companions had also said that if they could catch the king’s eye, they might be rewarded with a divine weapon personally forged by him.
But he and his companions had only been fantasizing. They never thought that they could really obtain a divine weapon personally forged by the king.
They would be lucky if they could obtain a weapon forged by the Huaxia Pavilion.
Their cultivation levels were not bad. Grandmasters could already be conferred nobility on the Ten Nations Continent.
But their third-rank Martial Dao cultivation was thanks to the two medicinal pills given by the army.
There were no less than dozens of people like them in the Ten Nations Alliance. They were really not very outstanding.
After all, with these two heaven-defying pills, as long as people weren’t very weak, their cultivation would quickly increase.
Zhang San’s aptitude was not bad. When he entered the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, he was already a sixth-rank martial artist. In two years, his cultivation had increased by three ranks. It was already very impressive. But compared to Yang Hong, who had advanced from the ninth rank to the third rank, he was greatly inferior.
Countless thoughts flashed through Zhang San’s mind in an instant. He even recalled all his experiences since he was born, wanting to find out where he caught the king’s eye.
“Zhang San?”
Meng Bai’s voice brought Zhang San back to his senses.
The name gave Meng Bai a wry feeling. It was… too hasty.
“Are you willing or not?” Meng Bai continued to ask.
“Yes, I am willing!” Zhang San shouted.
Who in the world could refuse a weapon forged by the king himself?
Zhang San had never dreamed that he would have such an opportunity!
“But…” Zhang San said weakly. “Great General, I don’t have money…”
“His Highness is not asking for money.” Meng Bai smiled bitterly. “Ever since we entered the Demon Realm, all the weapons provided by the Huaxia Pavilion have been free. It’s the same for your weapon.
“If you really have the heart, you should pay more attention when you serve His Highness. That will be enough.”
“I, Zhang San, pledge my loyalty to His Highness!” Zhang San shouted.
Actually, he was not from Great Xia. He was from Great Chen.
The Great Chen army that had participated in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament had been completely wiped out. Zhang San was one of the few people left from Great Chen.
If the Great Chen emperor heard what he said, who knew how he would think?
Meng Bai thought, Zhou Shu’s prestige in the Ten Nations Alliance is definitely greater than that of the Ten Nations’ emperors.
Meng Bai was not sure if this was a good thing or a bad thing.
But in the Demon Realm, there was no need to worry about this for the time being. Even if he returned to the Ten Nations Continent, Meng Bai felt that there was no need to worry.
Zhou Shu wasn’t a general like them, so he didn’t have to worry about having achievements so great that it made the emperors uneasy.
“Alright, since you’re willing, leave the camp now and wait for His Highness two thousand kilometers southwest,” Meng Bai said with a deep voice.
…
In Demon King Hu Li’s territory, Zhou Shu returned to the hollowed-out mountainside with Yin Chengshan.
For a long time, Yao Aotian had been fawning over Zhou Shu, so he didn’t arouse the suspicion of the other demonic beasts.
As long as Yin Chengshan didn’t speak, all the demonic beasts wouldn’t be able to tell that he was not the real Yao Aotian.
On the other hand, Zhang Chunlin and the others had mixed feelings when they saw Zhou Shu walking around with this Great Demon.
He was a Great Demon, yet he was being ordered around by Zhou Shu like a servant. Who was he?
“How’s the progress?” Zhou Shu called Zhang Chunlin over and asked.
Zhang Chunlin had once been the grand minister of the Great Xia Forging Division. After Zhou Shu saved him, he made the best use of him and let him manage the matters.
Zhang Chunlin stole a glance at Yao Aotian. Seeing that Zhou Shu didn’t care, he said, “We’re already processing the forging materials according to your instructions.
“But the amount of forging material you requested is enormous. We’ve only processed two to three percent of it.”
According to the current progress, it will take at least six months to process all the forging materials.
“And that’s only all the ore we have so far. If we add in the ore that’s still coming in, it will only take longer.”
Even when he was the grand minister of the Forging Division, he had never seen so many forging materials.
He really couldn’t understand how Zhou Shu could make demonic beasts work so hard to mine ore for him.
If he could bring back so many forging materials to Great Xia, the Great Xia Forging Division would definitely become the strongest and richest forging division in the Ten Nations!
“This is only the initial stage.” Zhang Chunlin sighed in his heart and continued, “According to your arrangements, there will still be a composite refinement. According to my current estimates, it will take at least five years to complete.”
Zhang Chunlin actually didn’t know what Zhou Shu wanted to forge. But just processing the forging materials would take five to six years, and it took so many people. Just thinking about it made Zhang Chunlin feel that what Zhou Shu wanted to do was extraordinary.
