Holy Swordsmith

Chapter 177 Shocked
"No.2, Mei Gaoyong." The master swordsmith on the high platform said the results of No.2, "One piece of high-grade fifth-grade iron essence, one piece of quasi-first-grade fine steel, and one piece of inferior first-grade fine steel."

hiss!
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, not because Mei Gaoyong tempered first-grade fine steel, which is an achievement worth looking up to for a master swordsmith.However, even with such a result, they were only ranked No.2. Chen Hong and Hai Fu were squeezed out, which was shocking enough, but now even Mei Gaoyong was squeezed out.

Mei Gaoyong, before the results are announced, no one thinks that anyone can shake his position, not even Chen Hong and Hai Fu.Some people even pulled their cheeks, wondering if they were dreaming now, otherwise how could such a crazy thing happen.

"No.1?" Wu Feidao looked at Ye Shi with horrified eyes.

Others may doubt Ye Shi's ability, but Wu Feidao is clear that Ye Shi's sword casting ability is not inferior to his, and until now, Ye Shi's name has not been heard, so Ye Shi's ranking can only be higher.However, Ye Shi was able to squeeze Mei Gaoyong down, which really shocked Wu Feidao.

At first, he thought that he already had a high enough opinion of Ye Shi, but now it seems that he still underestimated Ye Shi's sword-making ability and talent.Wu Feidao clenched his fists and his eyes were extremely firm. He is also a rare genius in sword-making, and he is ten years older than Ye Shi, but his sword-making ability is not as good as Ye Shi's.This fully inspired Wu Feidao to fight. With Ye Zai, he had a goal to surpass, and became more determined and hardworking in the way of forging swords.

At this moment, above the stands, all the patriarchs of the aristocratic families and the city lords of the medium-sized cities began to discuss, only Wu Tianao, who knew about it a long time ago, smiled and remained silent.On the other hand, Xiong Man shook his head, his heart was full of shock, no wonder the Lord City Lord had such an expression yesterday, and he also understood why the Lord City Lord said that today would surprise him.

"No.1, Ye Shi. One piece of high-grade fifth-grade iron essence, one piece of medium-grade first-grade fine steel, and one piece of high-grade first-grade fine steel." The swordsmith on the high platform shouted at this time.

Whoa!
Immediately, Ye Shi's results caused an uproar, and everyone's eyes widened, unable to believe what they heard.Even if it is just a piece of high-grade fifth-grade iron essence, it can be ranked among the top five. Even if it is Chen Hong, the best piece of tempered steel is only a top-grade fifth-grade iron essence.But Ye Shi, among the three pieces of tempered steel, the last piece turned out to be a top-grade fifth-grade iron essence, but this is not enough to shock people.

The important thing is that the other two pieces of tempered steel, no wonder this leaf stone, can get No.1.A piece of medium-grade first-grade fine steel and a piece of high-grade first-grade fine steel, as long as one of them can secure the No. 1 result, let alone two pieces of this leaf stone are tempered.

But who is this Ye Shi, and why has he never heard of his name before.Immediately, everyone became curious about Ye Shi. The patriarchs of the aristocratic families and medium-sized cities in the stands knew something, and looked at Ye Shi one after another.But those swordsmith masters who participated in the competition, and those spectators outside the square, didn't know anything about it.

The eyes of the audience swept across the faces of the swordsmiths in the square, and the swordsmiths also looked at others one after another, wanting to find out who the swordsmith who won No.1 is.But at a glance, most of them are familiar faces, even if they are not the swordsmith masters of Tianwu City, they have met a few faces in other years' swordsmith competitions.

Immediately, everyone turned their attention to Ye Shi, only this person was an unfamiliar face, perhaps the legendary Ye Shi.But after thinking about it, they felt that it was unlikely. Ye Shi was the one who pushed Mei Gaoyong down. In their thinking, even if he wasn't a gray-haired old man, he was still a middle-aged man who was about to grow old.Judging by this person's age, it is a miracle to be able to participate in the Sword Forging Competition. The top ten would not even dare to think about it, let alone No.1.

"It seems that the performance is still too outstanding." Ye Shi shook his head lightly. In order not to be too outstanding, Ye Shi deliberately lowered the tempering. The result was only two pieces of first-grade fine steel, but it was still so surprising. Only then did Ye Shi realize that he thought things too well.

Originally, Ye Shi thought that with so many swordsmiths participating in the swordsmithing competition, there must be many talented people among them. If the performance is too poor, the ranking may be dropped, so he played a little more.After the results came out, Ye Shi realized that he had thought too much. These master swordsmiths, not to mention the first-grade fine steel, not even the fifth-grade iron essence were tempered by many people.

Ye Shi understands that a big tree attracts the wind, so Ye Shi doesn't want to show anything, especially in such an environment.However, rather than hiding it, Ye Shi needed the benefits after winning more, so he did so.Now that it has become a fact, Ye Shi no longer thinks too much about it, and just pay more attention to the next game.

"Look, that's Ye Shi." At this moment, someone finally recognized him, pointing in Ye Shi's direction and shouting.

Immediately, the sound was like a stone being dropped on a calm lake, causing a wave of waves.Everyone looked in that direction, only to see the outstanding young man yesterday morning. Even so, only a small number of people believed it, while more people were full of doubts.

"You read that right, that young man is Ye Shi?"

"That's right, since this Ye Shi is able to overwhelm all the master swordsmiths, he is middle-aged, how can someone with a lot of experience in swordsmithing be so young."

"That's right." The man nodded fiercely, and said, "I happened to hear someone address him like that yesterday, and I remembered that it was the Young City Lord, who invited him to have lunch. nearby."

"What, the invitation from the young city lord, it must be."

"That's right, if it wasn't for Master Ye Shi, how could the Young City Master invite a swordsmith from an outer city to have lunch with him? Unexpectedly, this Master Ye Shi is so young."

Immediately, bursts of surprise sounded, and the sound also spread to the square. All the swordsmiths looked at Ye Shi with shocked eyes.Compared with those laymen, they are more aware of the frighteningness of becoming a master swordsmith at such an age and possessing such abilities.Even Mei Gaoyong's eyes flickered, and a bit of disbelief appeared on his face.

With such achievements and talents at such an age, it is only a matter of time before one becomes a senior swordsmith.

There are also some swordsmith masters, but they remembered the scene when they saw Ye Shi in the rented sword workshop two days ago. At that time, they still laughed at Ye Shi for being overconfident. Now it seems that they seem to be jumping on the beam Clown up.
