Chapter 79: First Mystic Mechanic Exhibition - Part 2

Everyone inside the hall looked at Mo Jian in confusion. Even though they tried to understand what he was trying to say, they couldn’t wrap their heads around his explanation.

"Young Master, can you please explain it better? This disciple is a little too stupid," Yong Li asked with a bittersweet smile.

Mo Jian knew it wasn’t that Yong Li and the others were stupid. His way of thinking was far different from theirs. Thus, he needed to carry them along slowly.

"You’re not stupid. Don’t look down on yourself," he said lightly. "Now, I’ll explain slowly so that you can all understand what I’m trying to say."

With this, everyone increased their concentration. None of them dared miss such a rare chance to listen to Mo Jian teaching.

"Let’s think of it this way. For this Refining Hall, how many Moon Orbs do you think would be necessary to light it up? Apart from that, to switch off these Moon Orbs would be troublesome. Right?"

Everyone nodded. They could understand this explanation.

"Also, have you all thought about the amount of spirit stones that would be consumed?"

With this, even Yong Li couldn’t help but frown. He had realized this would be a lot of problem in the long run.

"Young Master, I understand, but I don’t have a solution for this," Yong Li replied with a bitter smile.

He had been prideful of his creation only to discover his creation had a lot of shortcomings.

"What do you think I’ve been saying all this while? Of course, that’s the solution." Mo Jian did not know whether to laugh or cry.

’Really?!’

Even the elders were confused. They did not expect he was already providing the solution.

"Ok, let me make it clear. For example, create a mystic circuit that controls all the Moon Orbs inside the hall. The mystic circuit would serve as the main source of the energy."

"As the main power source, you won’t need to feed each Moon Orb a spirit stone. In addition, you can create a control switch which you can use to control the different Moon Orbs."

"With this method, you can control the Moon Orbs and be flexible with it. Do you all understand now?"

"Yes. Thank you, Young Master. I understand very much." A bright smile appeared on Yong Li.

A look of realization appeared on everyone’s face. They did not expect from a single Moon Orb, Mo Jian could conceive such a genius idea.

Seeing that everyone had understood his idea,

Mo Jian breathed a sigh of relief. He did not know what he would have done if they had not understood such a simple explanation.

"Even though I suggest that, you can start mass-producing the Moon Orb. My Thousand Wealth Chamber will help you sell it."

Yong Li’s smile deepened. "Thank you, Young Master, I won’t disappoint you."

His voice was filled with determination.

With Xiu Xu and Yong Li successful in their creation, a huge pressure was now on the disciples.

Next, a male disciple stepped forward without carrying any artifact.

"My name is Wei Jian," Wei Jian introduced himself.

His voice was unhurried and low.

Most of the disciples could barely hear his voice. However, they were accustomed to Wei Jian’s lazy attitude.

Wei Jian looked at a male disciple and said, "Can you please attack me? Don’t worry, it’s just for demonstration."

The male disciple looked at the elders, and when he received the confirmation, he stepped forward and unsheathed his sword.

"Disciple Wei, please be careful," the male disciple warned.

He was a Mortal Rank-8 warrior and could fight a Mortal Rank-9 warrior without losing.

"Don’t worry, just attack me," Wei Jian said casually.

Whoosh!

Without uttering any more words, the male disciple swung his sword and attacked. The sword strike was swift and powerful.

Bang!

The strike hit Wei Jian’s chest, shocking everyone, but to their amazement, Wei Jian did not move from his spot and he was unarmed.

On his chest, his robe was torn apart, showing light armor.

Looking at the light armor, everyone in the hall was stunned. The male disciple that attacked could not believe his eyes.

What sort of armor could receive his attack without shattering to pieces? It did not even leave a scratch.

Even Mo Jian was stunned.

’What sort of armor is that?’ everyone exclaimed in their hearts.

In the Western Region, there wasn’t any armor that could easily withstand such a powerful attack.

The most common ones were shields, and those were made from extremely precious ores.

Watching the stunned expression of everyone, Wei Jian was satisfied. He ripped off his torn robe and took off the light armor.

"I call the armor a Scarlet Armor Shirt," Wei Jian began, his voice filled with pride.

"The Scarlet Armor Shirt was created from a new metal I created."

"Did you just say you created a new metal?" Elder Luo Zhen asked with a trembling voice.

"Yes," he nodded. He took out a bluish alloy from his spatial pouch and showed it to Mo Jian and the elders.

"I call it Scarlet Moon Alloy. I come from a lineage of blacksmiths, and I’ve been introduced to metal from a young age. Learning the Mystic Mechanic made me realize how crude we’ve been handling all the ores around us."

"Therefore, I decided to try to create a new metal, but who would have expected I’d be lucky by chance." He chuckled.

"I created the Scarlet Moon Alloy from the combination of Mystic Silver and Redsteel Ore."

"Impossible!" Elder Luo Zhen shook his head. "Many refiners had tried to combine the two ores but never succeeded."

"That’s because they did not have the idea of what they were doing," Wei Jian retorted. "With Mystic Mechanic, we can accurately measure the temperature of everything, and with the right temperature and combination—and a bit of luck—the Scarlet Moon Alloy was created."

Elder Luo Zhen did not agree. "Explain better."

"The Redsteel needs to be under a temperature of 3000 degrees while the Mystic Silver needs to be 900 degrees."

"To combine the two, the Mystic Silver needs to be poured into the Redsteel while maintaining the exact temperature of 2000 degrees. When both metals are combined, you need to increase the temperature to 2150 degrees."

Listening to Wei Jian’s clear explanation and the confident smile on his face, everyone realized he was telling the truth.

Besides, why would he lie?

Elder Luo Zhen was a master refiner who had dealt with metal almost his whole life. But who would have expected what he failed to do—

One of the disciples would do it.

Even though he was not the one that created the new alloy, he was extremely happy.

"You did great." He moved forward and patted Wei Jian on the shoulder twice.

"Elder, you praise me too much. I’m just lucky." Wei Jian lowered his head in humility.

"Nonsense! If it is so easy, why didn’t all the refiners and blacksmiths get lucky and create a new metal every time?" Elder Luo Zhen scoffed.

Wei Jian smiled and rubbed the back of his head, unsure of how to respond.

"What are the qualities of this new Scarlet Moon Alloy of yours?" Mo Jian asked.

Instantly, Wei Jian became serious and responded, "Young Master, the Scarlet Moon Alloy is extremely lightweight and flexible, has the hardness of the Redsteel but five times..."

"Did you just say five times?"

"Yes, Young Master." He nodded confidently.

"But that must be under special forging techniques, I believe."

"You’re right, Young Master. Nothing could escape from the Young Master’s eyes." Wei Jian flattered.

However, Mo Jian ignored his flattery and questioned, "Is that all?"

"No. There is still one more ability. It’s highly supportive of runes. It can boost rune power by ten percent."

"Are you sure?" Elder Bai Delan asked with an incredulous look.

"Yes, Elder. I won’t dare lie."

"Hahaha. Good. Good." Elder Bai was excited.

He was a rune master after all. What could make a good runic master better than good quality materials for his runes?

"With such rare alloy, I’ll also give you one million lower-grade spirit stones," Mo Jian said calmly.

However, Wei Jian was not as calm as him. He was grinning from ear to ear. His previous lazy demeanor was long gone.

With such a huge amount of money, how could he continue with his lazy persona?

Still, he recovered quickly and asked Mo Jian for advice.

"Creating armor out of such a rare and versatile alloy will be a waste. You need to work with others and bring the best out of it."

"You can partner with Xiu Xu and Yong Li. I believe they would need your alloy. This is just an example—there are countless ways for the Scarlet Moon Alloy to show its power. Just don’t limit it to your thinking."

"Still, whatever you decide, my Thousand Wealth Chamber will help in selling it."

"Yes, Young Master. I’ll follow your teaching." Wei Jian nodded seriously and returned to his position.

Meanwhile, Mo Jian used his Rook-Seeking Vision to look at his talent.

[Name: Wei Jian]

[Cultivation: Mortal Rank-8]

[Affinity: Metal.]

[Talent: Metallurgy (Ordinary)]

’What!’

Mo Jian was stunned. This was the first time he saw such an earthly field of specialization. ’Are there metallurgists in this world?’

’Perhaps, they were not called that name but called something. I wouldn’t be surprised if they were called blacksmiths or refiners.’

With such rare talents under his nose, how could he let it go?
