Start From Cultivation University

"Is that so?"

After hearing this, Wei Ze smiled softly. Seeing that Chu Yunyi looked at him with increasingly nervous eyes, he pondered for a moment, and then asked: "Now you are in the first semester of your freshman year. Have you thought about your goals and aspirations for the sophomore major diversion?" ?”

If a student like this comes to him on his own initiative, he will help everything he can. However, after all, it is no longer the initial stage, and they still have to teach students in accordance with their aptitude.

Chu Yunyi was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "Should...it's a tool repair?"

"Is this what you want to learn, or did someone else let you choose?"

Wei Ze looked into her eyes: "You are already a cultivator of Kunlun University, don't be led away by external forces. Don't care about anyone's ideas, I need your clear answer now: this direction is what you want to learn Do you really like 'tools'? Why did you become a cultivator?"

After several consecutive questions were thrown, Chu Yunyi was obviously taken aback by his question. Judging by her expression, this was the first time she had seriously considered this issue.

——Are these things she did what she wanted to do "by herself"?

She knew that any lie would be seen through by the teacher at a glance, so she hesitated for a long time before finally saying nothing.

From childhood to adulthood, no matter what she does, there will always be the most mature person to plan everything for her. You don't have to think about it yourself, the best solution is already in front of you.

She thought she was free now that she was out of the family. But it wasn't until Wei Ze said these words that she realized belatedly: she was still relying on others.

"This is your real problem. Rather than saying that you want power now, it might be better to say that you just want to find a reason to escape from this matter."

Wei Ze shook his head: "Forget it, it's too late today, you go back to rest first, and after class is over tomorrow, go to the No. If you can’t think clearly for a while, then just don’t think about anything and just do it.”

"...is teacher."

 …

On the second day, Chu Yunyi came to the refining room as scheduled. What was waiting for her was the sound of tinkling and crashing, as well as the blazing furnace in front of her.

A slight flow of molten iron can be seen between the flames of the smelting furnace, and a circle of anvils has been placed in front of the furnace, on which are placed bronze-colored iron ingots, and there seems to be a faint spiritual light rolling on the surface.

Wei Ze and Bailiyu stood by the furnace, with an iron rod at their feet, and a figure emerged from the iron rod, surrounding the furnace, beating on the anvil, and there was an endless sound of tinkling iron ——It was the Xuan-level employee "Li Yitie".

The spirit of this iron rod contains the virtual appearance of an entire blacksmith's family, so it naturally inherited this ancient forging technique. When there was nothing to repair on campus, Wei Ze asked the employee to forge the most basic spiritual materials here, and provide them as teaching aids for the refining class.

Chu Yunyi blinked. She stayed in the equipment department for a long time, and now she knows where the condensed spirit materials used in the school come from.

It's just that Wei Ze wanted to wait for the official equipment to be in place, and directly use modern forging machines to solve the problem. However, the level of the outside world's spiritual tool industry can't bear to look directly at it, and the school's spiritual materials can only be solved by the most stupid methods. .

"You said that you want to improve your strength without relying on anyone, and you want to become a weapon repairer. Then, first use the method of tool repair to practice."

As Wei Ze said, with a move of his hand, the casting hammer in front of him automatically floated up and floated in front of Chu Yunyi.

"This is an opportunity for you, but also a test. If you really want to become a cultivator, then from now on, you must completely forget about your past self. From now on, everything will be done according to the method of the ancient cultivator."

Although I have been in the refining class for several months, due to the acceptance of the current students, Bailiyu basically teaches spiritual weapons by hand, and when the furnace is used, it is mostly used for casting molds. Materials are usually prepared in advance.

Therefore, this is the first time she has faced the oldest and most basic refining process.

"As a monk, the forging process is not just to shape the material. More importantly, it is to dissolve the impurities in the spiritual material in the way of continuous beating of spiritual power, so as to make it more effective in guiding the spirit. Among them, more than Swinging a hammer requires a basic grasp of spiritual power."

"Where to place the hammer, how much spiritual power to use when striking, and how to ensure that the level of spiritual guidance in the final product is exactly the same. A total test of will."

As Bailiyu said, he indicated the position to grasp, and then finished talking about the basic forging method in a few minutes. Looking at his thin and frail appearance, his understanding of this basic process is not bad at all.

"...Originally, according to Your Excellency Wei Ze's intention, the process of forging by a master craftsman can always be replaced by modern machinery, so there are no courses related to this in the university."

"But now that you are here for the purpose of cultivation, then put aside the convenient path given to you by the present era, and practice completely in the ancient way of cultivation. If you can really cultivate according to the plan, then you can make your own natal weapon , This will be of great help to your strength improvement."

Forging spiritual materials with the staff in the school... Is this the training plan Teacher Wei made for her?

Chu Yunyi looked at the flaming furnace in front of him, and secretly swallowed. When she was at home, she seldom even held a broom, but now she wants to blacksmith?

——However, this was proposed by Teacher Wei.

——It is a great honor that the teacher is willing to take the time to make plans according to her own situation. There is no room for her to pick and choose.

Chu Yunyi's heart sank secretly, but in the end he reached out his hand to the hammer and held it tightly in his hand.

"Turning around with legs, using the waist as a brace, concentrate the spiritual power on the tip of the refining hammer, and fall into the 'eyes' of the spiritual material..." Bailiyu pointed at her elbows while speaking , "Well, that's fine, the rest of the strength is up to you to control, keep your spiritual power running, and give it a try first."

While speaking, he released the spiritual power support that fell on the hammer, and saw that Chu Yunyi's hands sank suddenly, and he hurriedly adjusted his breath and added some force to stabilize it.

so heavy? !

Holding the hammer, Chu Yunyi felt his hands ache from being worn down. Just the start of forging has already made her overwhelmed. But according to Wei Ze, if a piece of low-grade spiritual material wants to take shape, it needs at least ninety-nine and eighty-one hammers to start, this...

"Actually, you really don't have to fight like this. After all, you're just fighting for the people behind you."

The sound on the arena suddenly sounded at this time, Chu Yunyi's heart shook, he shook his head to shake off the sound, clenched his teeth and clenched his hand, and tremblingly raised the hammer, pouring spiritual power into it. Into the body so that every inch of muscle is as tight as iron.

Fight!

With a clear shout, Chu Yunyi suddenly exerted strength, and the spiritual power in his slender arm burst out instantly, driving the hammer out, hitting the iron block in front of him in various ways. For a moment, it was like hitting a copper bell, and the loud noise echoed throughout the refining room, even the flame in the furnace jumped due to the vibration, and at the same time, the hammer in her hand jumped.

"clang--"

There was a huge counter-shock force, and the whole hammer bounced up. She was brought by the force and almost fell to the ground, only to feel that the whole arm was numb due to the force. Just one hammer had already made her unsteady on her feet, and it took her half a day to regain her posture.

"The movement is correct, but the strength is too unfocused, and more practice is needed." Bailiyu shook his head, "Different from the swordsmanship you have learned, refining weapons is not a way of fighting, but a practical way. From the beginning to the end, swinging the hammer There are only those few essentials, and what determines the gap is only the basic skills of the cultivator."

Basic skills. For the family, this is worthless rough work. If this gets into the eyes of outsiders, and Miss Chu comes to the school to forge iron, then this will probably make people laugh out loud.

Losing the Fairy Games, her failure is already an established fact. She doesn't know what's the point of doing this practice now, but...she just wants to do it.

Chu Yunyi panted, his mind was empty, and he raised the casting hammer again.

"when--"

"Clang—"

Continuous knocking sounded, and the hammer fell on the spiritual ingot in front of her again and again, and at the same time, the huge vibrations also bombarded her body again and again. She felt the pain in the tiger's mouth, and the fingers holding the casting hammer were so numb that she could hardly hold the handle of the hammer, so she could only resist with spiritual power. The seemingly simple action has become unbearable with the passage of time.

It was precisely because of this that she understood what Wei Ze's words meant: under such gravity, she was going to go all out just by staring at Li Yitie's movements next to her and controlling her strength so that the refining hammer would not let go. No time to think about anything.

[Student [Chu Yunyi]'s spiritual power control level has improved, spiritual power value +2]

[Student [Chu Yunyi] increased willpower, spiritual power +1]

【student...】

Wei Ze looked at the hints, and judging from the increase in spiritual power, this Chu Yunyi was indeed not a genius. However, there are too many ordinary people in the university. Since the students want to practice, he will do everything he can. The rest depends on how long she can last.

The fact did not surprise him. When the twentieth hammer was hit, Chu Yunyi finally couldn't support it any longer. With a loud sound, the hammer in his hand was knocked out. Thanks to Wei Ze's spiritual power, he didn't hit the ground. pit.

On the other hand, she herself was brought by that force and knelt down on the ground. When she raised her hand, she saw that her palm had already been rubbed red, with little blood oozing out.

Sure enough, it was not completed, but compared with her own original level, this was already beyond expectations.

"It's okay. However, this is just the beginning." Wei Ze glanced at the fineness of the iron ingot, "It's really hard to deal with such a high intensity at the beginning. You should go back to rest today and wait until tomorrow." Again..."

"...No, teacher." In the middle of speaking, Chu Yunyi, who was kneeling on the ground, suddenly gasped and said, "Today, I will finish it. Teachers, go and do your things first, I will. ..do it yourself."

For a few days, she was thinking about that failure on the field all the time, and she didn't even dare to reply to the news from home. Only by swinging the hammer here now can she temporarily forget about it.

This reason alone is enough to support her standing here.

[Student [Chu Yunyi] has strengthened his Dao heart, spiritual power +2]

The reminder that appeared at the same time made Wei Ze slightly startled. He watched Chu Yunyi wipe his face vigorously to wipe off the sweat on his face, then picked up the hammer again unsteadily, and took wobbly steps again, again and again. Standing in front of the iron ingot, he raised his hand and struck fiercely.

"Clang...clang——"

There were bursts of iron clashing sounds, this time only five or six sounds, and she became unsteady again and almost fell. But after standing still again, she struggled to raise the hammer again and landed on the iron ingot in front of her again.

According to what Cai Bailiyu said just now, she uses her calf to drive her entire waist, and then sends the power to her hands... This action seems a bit inconsistent with that slender figure. She didn't notice it herself, but in Wei Ze's eyes, the prompts of "increased mastery" kept popping up.

Wei Ze and Bailiyu looked at each other, and told Wuxin and Liu Xiucai to keep an eye on this side, then they all turned around and walked out of the equipment room, each preparing their own lessons.

There were no more voices in the scorching space, only the sound of iron clashing echoed in the room. Even the phantoms of Li Yitie next to him were attracted to turn their heads, watching the slender figure staggering and swinging the hammer again and again, his face was reddened by the flames.

Chu Yunyi was panting hard, his hair was soaked in sweat, and the refining hammer in his hand was as heavy as if it was supporting a mountain. From more than 20 consecutive hammers, to five or six hammers, and then almost every time I swung I had to rely on the ground to pant for a while, but the sound never stopped.

The hand holding the hammer trembled more and more, and her spiritual power was on the verge of being exhausted, but she didn't even notice it, but the movement of exerting force became smoother because of this, and the arc of each hammer bounced became more and more smooth. It got smaller and smaller, and the spiritual power attached to it was completely driven into the iron ingot.

Because if she didn't do this, she wouldn't even be able to lift a hammer.

Amidst the sound, the spiritual ingot in front of him gradually condensed from a scattered semi-liquid state to a strange bronze-colored solid, and then gradually cooled down to a silver-colored iron block. When she reached the fiftieth mark, she finally sat down again, holding on to the casting hammer, she seemed to have difficulty even moving her fingers.

The phantoms of Li Yitie surrounded him, looking at the iron ingot with a faint aura in front of him, and at the little girl with a dusty face in front of him. surprise.

From the point of view of fineness alone, this can already be regarded as a low-grade spiritual ingot. Although the impurities are still far from being cleaned up, if you put it outside, you can sell it for five figures or more—she should have thought about it in the first place, but now she doesn't think about it at all.

At this moment, there was only one thing left in her mind: the eighty-one hammers, which hadn't been smashed yet.

Chu Yunyi was gasping for breath, holding on to the casting hammer next to him, and was about to stand up again after stumbling, but at this moment, there was a buzzing sound in his pocket, and it was the phone shaking.

She wanted to take out the phone from her pocket, but her hand shook so much that she couldn't hold it at all, so she let it slip out of her hand, fell to the ground and lit up the screen, displaying a message from the family group.

"How is Yunyi doing in the competition? Pay attention to your image, we are ladies, so don't overdo it."

Chu Yunyi bent down and watched the news. At this time, she was covered in iron dust, and her whole body was so numb that she couldn't move. The sweat on his forehead poured into his eyes, and the eye circles were all red.

After clicking into the group, she couldn't type with shaking hands, so she could only hold down her voice and speak in a calm and smiling tone.

"Don't worry, I'm fine."

 …

In the next month or so, affairs in Kunlun University continued to proceed smoothly.

Except for a figure swinging a hammer in the refining room, there is almost no change in the daily life on campus. In addition to the usual classes and activities, the freshman qualifiers were still going on in an orderly manner as planned. As waves of players were eliminated, the attention of the remaining top players naturally increased day by day.

After a month of competition time, the top 60 candidates have been basically determined, but since it is a ranking system and everyone wants to take this opportunity to get in touch with more experts, the competition will continue according to the process. Among them, a certain two guys stand out the most.

"Xie Tianyang, Han Jiangchen... just these two people, they are crazy!"

In the student union lounge, a group of volunteer students gathered at the table, pointing at the list on the table: that is the promotion tree diagram of the freshman qualifiers. And at this time, on the forked "tree", two names have been drawn with red circles.

"If you have time, you should really watch the match between these two people. It's really a flat push. This is a dual-core bulldozer in freshman year!"

"I know Xie Tianyang, who is that Han Jiangchen?"

"I'm not familiar with it, but it's a dark horse anyway. Now even the freshman group has started betting, take a look..."

An old student at the table said, and put his mobile phone in front of everyone. It showed a row of school votes. The two most popular ones were "Do you think Xie Tianyang will meet Han Jiangchen in the final round of the preliminaries?" and "Xie Tianyang vs. Han Jiangchen." , who do you think will win?"

There was almost no objection to the first question, more than 95% of the people voted "yes", and the second question was much more controversial. However, due to the accumulated rhetoric before, Xie Tianyang currently leads with nearly 70% of the votes.

"The first one has no suspense, the profit is too small, let's look at the second one..."

Following these words, everyone's eyes fell on that question.

"Who will win the final match between these two?"
