Douluo: Trinity, I run through the timeline.

Chapter 51 Su Ming: Teacher, you have such good comprehension!

After finalizing the details of the association's reform, Su Ming and his two fellow disciples left Gengxin City to help Duan Jin obtain his fourth soul ring.

Duan Jin had his target identified early on.

The reason why we were able to set such a good goal in advance is, of course, because of our teacher, Zhu Jiuyang.

He searched everywhere for soul beasts, entering and leaving various soul beast gathering places. Along the way, he would pass through some areas of low-level soul beasts and encountered that wild gorilla.

Six thousand years is just the right number for Duan Jin, who has consumed the millennium whale glue.

"Roar!"

A roar suddenly erupted from the silent, rocky area.

Wild Gorilla pounded his fists wildly in front of his chest, his powerful earth-attribute soul energy surging and condensing in his fists before leaping into the air.

"Be careful, that's his ultimate move, the Thunderous Vajra Fist," Su Ming warned from the side.

Huo Lie nodded after being reminded.

But he did not dodge.

Today's task is to subdue Wild Gorilla so that Duan Jin can better persuade him later.

Although it wasn't Duan Jin who subdued Wild Gorilla, Huo Lie's long-term interaction with him provided a good environment for Duan Jin and Wild Gorilla to develop their relationship.

They are, after all, a type of spirit beast that is not good at using its brain, and they are not even ten thousand years old, so their intelligence is not high.

Huo Lie roared angrily, and his body suddenly rose higher.

A single, metallic horn grew from the top of his head, and his body was covered in dark red scales, burning with fierce flames that coalesced into the shape of a dragon.

One-horned fire tyrannosaurus.

"Fifth Soul Skill, Invincible Golden Horn!"

Huo Lie's horn rapidly grew larger and thicker, with dense metallic elemental fluctuations emanating from it. At the same time, the flames around him gathered, forming a drill-shaped vortex of fire around the horn.

Firefly roared and stepped forward, his single horn colliding head-on with the fists of the wild gorilla that descended from the sky.

boom!
The ground shook.

Su Ming and Duan Jin subconsciously gritted their teeth.

A cloud of dust rose from the ground, and gravel flew everywhere.

In the next instant, a figure was sent flying backward.

Wild Gorilla flew more than ten meters before crashing heavily to the ground, his fists wreathed in blazing flames. The entire gorilla seemed to have been shaken unconscious.

Huo Lie slowly emerged from the smoke and dust.

The golden horn on his head slowly shrank back to its normal size.

"Xiao Ming, inscribe the magic array."

"okay."

Su Ming took out a complete set of array bases.

The array bases were placed in six directions, and the soul power was used as a guide to connect the six array bases, forming a six-pointed star pattern.

Huo Lie stepped forward and beat Wild Gorilla again before dragging the lifeless Wild Gorilla into the six-pointed star formation.

"Second senior brother."

Duan Jin looked at Su Ming, not understanding what Su Ming meant.

"Help him get out of this predicament."

Wild Gorilla turned his head to look at Duan Jin, his face showing anticipation.

"I understand."

Duan Jin unleashed his martial spirit and smashed it into the Wild Ape's head.

Su Ming couldn't help but cover his eyes.

Is it so cruel?

After Wild Gorilla died, a purple spirit ring condensed, and in the center of the purple spirit ring, a phantom spirit gradually emerged.

Wild Gorilla hovered bewildered in the middle of the spirit rings.

"Sign a contract."

Duan Jin entered the six-pointed star formation to receive the soul ring. Wild Gorilla was absorbed into Duan Jin's body along with the soul ring.

Five hours later.

The three left the Savage Beast Mountain Range.

“Wild Gorilla is easier to talk to than I imagined,” Duan Jin said.

"He's just a little afraid of me," Huo Lie said.

He touched his nose, realizing that his initial strategy had been somewhat flawed.

Shouldn't he be beaten up and then worshipped by the wild gorilla?

“Then let’s change the plan. Senior Brother, you will be separated from Second Senior Brother for the time being,” Su Ming said.

Gengxin City.

Blacksmiths Guild.

"Teacher, you're back!"

After returning to the Forging Masters Association, the three heard the news that Zhu Jiuyang had returned to the association and went directly to Zhu Jiuyang's forging room.

Zhu Jiuyang looked very well, and his soul power fluctuations were even more oppressive than before.

Seeing this, Su Ming couldn't help but ask, "Teacher, have you found the soul?"

"Hehe, not bad luck."

Zhu Jiuyang chuckled and recounted his experiences.

"It has to be the Star Dou Great Forest. The variety of soul beasts and the richness of the scenery allowed me to find a Flame Lord that was seriously injured and dying in a battle."

After recounting his experience, he said to Su Ming, "You've put in a lot of effort. Let's see if we can use the opportunity to have Sword Douluo act again next time."

"next time?"

Zhu Jiuyang said, "This Flame Lord has 80,000 years of cultivation. It would be very suitable for me to obtain my ninth spirit ring from it. Therefore, I don't need Sword Douluo to make a move for my ninth spirit ring. However, the reform of the Blacksmith Association will inevitably attract people's covetousness. Although you are cooperating with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, the deterrent effect is not enough. At this time, having Sword Douluo of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School make a move will have an immediate effect."

"But will they agree?"

"They will definitely agree." Zhu Jiuyang was confident about this. He said, "The reforms within the association will not have a significant impact on the outside world for the time being, but the appearance of spirit metal will attract the attention of those who are interested."

Attention from someone with ulterior motives?

“The Spirit Hall of Gengxin City will be the first to react. Given Miles’ greedy nature, he will take action against the Association. I will step in and negotiate with him,” Zhu Jiuyang said. “At that time, you can also communicate with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School. They will not refuse to help.”

Su Ming understood what Zhu Jiuyang meant.

For the association to develop, it certainly cannot rely on the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School alone. Instead, it should gain the recognition of all major powers and possess a certain degree of independence.

The Spirit Hall is the best major power to win over at this stage, and this can be done easily because of Zhu Jiuyang.

"Teacher, what about you and the Spirit Hall?"

Zhu Jiuyang noticed that Su Ming's expression was off.

"Did Huo Lie tell you? Don't worry, there is no conflict between your master and the Spirit Hall."

Moreover, the current Pope of the Spirit Hall is not a member of the Qian family.

Zhu Jiuyang didn't continue talking to Su Ming about this matter and changed the subject.

"Now that your second senior brother and I both have spirits, it's time for us to learn the technique of spirit infusion."

Su Ming looked embarrassed as Zhu Jiuyang stared at him.

Junior brothers teach senior brothers.

The apprentice teaches the master.

Go against Tiangang.

He had no choice but to bite the bullet and begin speaking.

Both Zhu Jiuyang and Duan Jin possessed exceptional forging talent. Zhu Jiuyang, in particular, had accumulated a wealth of experience and enjoyed a more harmonious relationship with the Flame Lord's spirit. Furthermore, the Flame Lord possessed higher intelligence, resulting in a more effective collaboration. In just three days, Zhu Jiuyang mastered the technique of imbuing spirits.

He then spent three days and experienced thirty-two failures before finally achieving the "Thousand Refinements of Spirit" on his thirty-third attempt.

In less than a week, Zhu Jiuyang successfully advanced from a master blacksmith to a master forger.

"It has to be the teacher; you learn so quickly," Su Ming couldn't help but praise.
