Chapter 290 Blacksmith Examination! A Chance to Change Your Fate!
The next day, Xiao Yu appeared at the edge of the residential area early in the morning.
They directly used the power of the earth to build hundreds of small bungalows.
"Why has the city lord suddenly built so many houses? Are there new people moving in?" Some inner city residents who were unaware of the situation were puzzled and gathered together, laughing and gossiping.
"These people are still laughing, they have no sense of crisis at all!" Others may not know, but Xiaoyu, Yingzi and other middle and senior managers are very clear about it.
Today is the monthly assessment for the forging area. Those who pass will become official members of Dragon City.
"Sigh...when more people get in based on their own abilities, they won't be laughing anymore!" Xiaoyu looked at those oblivious and complacent people and shook her head with a sigh.
She had a premonition that the competition in Longcheng would become increasingly fierce in the future.
Because the environment in the inner city is too good, and the treatment is too good!
Those who worked so hard to pass the assessments to get in are already very outstanding, even more so than the people in the inner city.
Xiaoyu sighed, quickly finished her breakfast, and rushed to the planting area.
Dragon City is currently short-handed, so she needs to work harder and make more contributions to the City Lord in order to gain a more stable position.
Those who are content with the status quo, only want a comfortable life and are unwilling to endure hardship, will be marginalized sooner or later.
Unfortunately, some people just don't understand.
"Sister Xiaoyu, let's go together!" Yingzi jogged up and took Xiaoyu's hand with a smile.
"And us too!" Some others who were familiar with Xiaoyu quickly followed.
As Longcheng continued to expand and grow stronger, others became insignificant, but Xiaoyu became increasingly valued.
Therefore, many people have seen this and are following her around.
Others follow her lead so that they won't make mistakes.
"Let's all work together then. We're short-handed right now, so let's all give it our all!" Seeing that these people were on the right track, Xiaoyu smiled and nodded with satisfaction, not forgetting to give them a reminder.
Meanwhile, in the outer city, within the forging area.
"Ladies and gentlemen, I don't need to elaborate on the lives of the people in the inner city!"
Today's assessment is an opportunity to change your lives.
I hope everyone can give it their all! Because...
Chu Ling Shuang stood on the high platform, her gaze sweeping over the more than one hundred students below, exuding an air of dominance, "As long as you pass the assessment, you can move into the inner city! You can even bring your families with you!"
"Give it your all! Give it your all!"
Upon hearing this, the more than one hundred students all had burning eyes and shouted wildly.
They would never forget what they saw when they entered the inner city last time.
I now live in a tenement building, where each person has only three or four square meters of space on average, which is extremely cramped.
There is a daily water quota, and you can only take a shower once every few days.
When it comes to dining and shopping in the commercial street, the people from the inner city and the outer city are worlds apart!
And the people of the inner city,
There is a very spacious and comfortable house with an inexhaustible water supply, so you can take a bath every day.
Most importantly, it allows you to immerse yourself in the glowing environment up close and quickly enhance your abilities.
In short, once they pass the assessment and move into the inner city, it will be like taking off.
"Now, I declare the assessment to begin!"
At Chu Ling Shuang's command, more than a hundred students took their positions.
They each went to their respective forging areas.
The difference between a Tier 1 iron sword and a regular iron sword is not significant, except that the latter is sharper.
A single, full-force strike from a Tier 1 iron sword can cut through an ordinary iron sword.
Therefore, today's assessment task is to forge a weapon in half a day.
A single strike that can cleave an ordinary iron sword is the mark of a Tier 1 Black Iron Blacksmith!
clang!clang!clang!
As soon as Chu Ling Shuang gave the order, ear-piercing hammering sounds immediately rang out in various forging rooms.
After all, there's only half a day.
All trainees wanted to complete the task in the shortest possible time.
After all, the faster the speed, the stronger the ability.
"Mother!"
Inside a forging room, the short-haired, tall beauty Nako didn't rush to start. Instead, she glanced towards the inner city and then at the tenement building, saying firmly, "Wait for me. Today, I'll definitely take you into the inner city and let you live a good life!"
During this time, she followed her teacher Chu Ling Shuang every day, diligently studying and practicing forging techniques.
When the previous Luminous Tree evolved, she was in the outer city, but she trained diligently all the time.
After being bathed in the light of life, her strength increased significantly once again.
"For my mother, for my teacher! I must pass the exam!"
Thinking of this, Nako slowly gripped his hammer and used pliers to pick out the red-hot iron block.
The next second, clang! A huge hammer blow rang out.
With a force of a thousand pounds, the iron block was instantly deformed, sparks flying everywhere.
This is the "Disorderly Cloak Hammer Technique" that her teacher, Chu Ling Shuang, taught her.
clang!clang!clang!
Each blow was stronger than the last, building up continuously.
The iron block continuously deforms and transforms.
Until... the entire iron block shrank to only half of its original size.
"Not bad!" On the high platform, a figure suddenly appeared beside Chu Ling Shuang. He looked at the tall, short-haired girl in the forging room who was frantically swinging a hammer and nodded appreciatively.
"You taught very well!"
"Lord City Lord, what brings you here?" Chu Ling Shuang asked in surprise.
The person who came was naturally Xiao Yu.
"Today is the first assessment for blacksmith trainees in my Dragon City, so I'm naturally paying close attention. I noticed a few promising talents just now, so I came to take a look."
Xiao Yu's gaze swept across the entire scene, lingering briefly on a few figures.
He created the forging area precisely to cultivate excellent blacksmiths for Dragon City.
He certainly won't pay attention to the second or third assessment.
However, among those who entered at the same time, the first to become a blacksmith was naturally the one with the highest talent.
Therefore, as the city lord, he naturally had to pay more attention to it.
"It's done!" At this moment, Xiao Yu looked at the tall, short-haired girl again, a slight smile playing on his lips.
Upon hearing this, Chu Ling Shuang looked over and her face lit up with joy.
After being forged by Nako through countless trials, a large, gleaming sword finally took shape.
Holding a large sword, she walked straight out of the forging room and came to the assessment platform.
"Cut this knife! Then you'll pass!"
An examiner raised an ordinary iron knife, signaling the two to fight.
This assessment not only tests the sharpness of the blade, but also the strength of the blacksmith.
After all, one's own strength is one of the important factors in a blacksmith's level.
"Alright! Come on!" Nako shouted, raising his sword to strike.
Sensing the powerful force approaching, the examiner quickly raised his knife to block.
next second.
The moment the two swords collided.
Click!
Nako's broadsword only managed to make a small nick.
The blacksmith's knife broke in two.
"Hahaha, Mother... I finally succeeded! I cut it in half!" Seeing that the other party's knife had been cut in half, Nako burst into excited laughter.
Finally, after a month of hard work, she succeeded.
"Congratulations, Nako! Once the assessment is over, you can move into the inner city!"
