Chapter 258: Who is this maniac? Part2
After chatting for a while, Tang Yue still ended up deciding to participate in the contest.
She had nothing to lose so it was definitely worth trying.
She then stood up and directly went back to the grind.
She wanted to practice more and memorize the feeling of adding in one more elemental essence to her forging process.
Tang Yue was just trying random things based on the teachings of the smithing scrolls, but she didn’t realize that achieving such a feat on a low-grade material like heavy silver was near impossible.
She was only able to do this because of the special skill that she stole from the centipede and her Emperor realm mental strength that enabled her to grasp things easily.
She spent an entire week and thoroughly practiced the forging technique and controlling two different elemental energies at the same time.
Because of this, her basic knowledge in casting earthen elemental spells and her overall cultivation progress improved as well.
Wiping the perspiration off of her forehead, Tang Yue relaxed and added the last long sword to the heap of weapons that laid in the corner of the smithy.
A loud clattering noise sounded as the heap trembled and collapsed a little.
Charlotte chuckled at the sight and jested. “Are you bored?”
“Heh. A little.” Tang Yue replied.
The duo decided to head to the forests nearby to hunt for a little while and also take Little Blue and the kid with them.
The dwarven establishments were all scattered, surrounded by thick dense forests.
So the duo didn’t have to walk much in order to reach their hunting grounds.
Even if these forests didn’t have any high-grade and rare-grade beasts, they still had plenty of lower level beasts.
And this was more than sufficient for them.
Charlotte and Tang Yue, of course, Tang Yue carrying the little kid, lazily accompanied Little Blue, as the wolf sniffed out its targets and attacked ferociously.
“Is it just me or is that little thing growing a bit too fast?” Charlotte gazed in amazement at the wolf cub.
“Ha Ha. No, he has definitely grown a lot and is also eating a lot.” Tang Yue jested, making fun of the wolf, who was now hungrily devouring its kill.
Little Blue was definitely not that little any longer.
The cub had grown considerably bigger and was a young wolf now.
More importantly, the beast was beginning to show signs of a mana core formation.
To a beast, a mana core formation was the first step towards breaking its shackles and it was a huge deal.
As the wolf continued gobbling up its meat, Tang Yue and Charlotte decided to take a bath in a small pond nearby.
Both of them had slightly awkward looks on their faces but neither brought up the topic of their earlier bath experience.
Only Xander smiled in glee, since this time he got to actually stay near the women.
“Hmph. I will see how you are making a move on my woman under my watch.” He arrogantly snorted.
But as the two women undressed down to their bare minimum clothes and stepped into the pond,
Xander could feel his head over heating and his face was also flushed.
Two half naked women sitting side by side, with their enticing curves almost exposed, and their hair wet, and skin glistening was too much for his inexperienced body to handle, even though he only loved one of the two and hated the other.
The man spent more time dunking his head repeatedly in the cold water, than enjoying the view in front of him.
Charlotte and Tang Yue, on the other hand, just chatted casually and the group headed back to the city in a short while.
“You guys go ahead. I have some work in the central district.” Tang Yue said.
“Yue, what are you planning to do?” Charlotte asked curiously.
“Big sis, I also want to come with you.” Xander chimed in.
Tang Yue pinched the small kid’s cheeks and explained to Charlotte.
“I want to start working with higher grade ores.”
“But I don’t have access to any of the techniques required for the higher grade materials.”
“So I am thinking of registering myself as an individual blacksmith at the merchants association.”
“Apart from being an apprentice, this should be the only other way to access these things.”
Charlotte nodded in agreement.
Logically speaking, indeed she would be able to access the higher level techniques by doing this, but without an actual mentor, will they still be useful?
However, having witnessed just how fast Tang Yue mastered the lower level techniques, she didn’t dare doubt her words.
So the elf simply waved goodbye and dragged the wolf and the insolent child along with her forcefully.
Tang Yue smiled at their antics and she quickly headed over to the merchants association.
It was still weird for her to see dwarves everywhere, but she maintained a calm and steady expression and walked in confidently as if she really belonged there.
“I would like to register as a 2 star blacksmith.”
Tang Yue greeted the dwarf near the entrance and directly got to the point.
The dwarf loudly grunted and stood up from the low desk he was sitting on.
He mumbled something in irritation as he went inside and grabbed a bunch of stuff.
“Fill in your details here and hand over some sample items.” He said.
Tang Yue looked at him, silently pondering what to hand over.
“Hmph. Sample items can be any weapons.” “As long as you hand over a low-grade weapon, you can be counted as a 2-star blacksmith.”
“And don’t even think about cheating.”
“If the association suspects anyone, they have the freedom to randomly test the applicants.” The dwarf snorted.
Tang Yue nodded.
She couldn’t care less about the dwarf’s attitude and was actually quite pleased with his detailed explanations.
“Would a 2-star blacksmith be able to access higher-grade smithing techniques?” She then asked curiously.
