Chapter 1024: Chapter 1022: The Youngest Fifth-Rank Artifact Refiner!

"Which one of you is competing?"

Just as Ren Feifan was about to reply, an icy voice rang out from behind!

"Yo, isn’t that the good-for-nothing Ying Wanling? How dare you show your face at the Sword Forging Square! Don’t tell me you’re actually considering joining the sword forging contest."

Ren Feifan turned around and saw that it was Elder Qiu.

He had seen this man’s photo in the Forging Room next to Hidden Sword Villa and recognized him immediately.

Ren Feifan could feel the fluctuations in the aura of the Desireless Taoist at his side, making it clear that there was some enmity between him and Elder Qiu.

And it was not a shallow hatred.

But what did Elder Qiu mean by calling his master ’a piece of trash’?

Could it be that the master also had a difficult time in Hidden Sword Villa?

Just like Ren Feifan had experienced in the Ren family?

Perhaps the reason his master had insisted on taking him as a disciple was partly due to this.

"I don’t need you to worry about my affairs!" the Desireless Taoist retorted coldly.

Elder Qiu let out a chuckle full of mockery, "Back in the day, you were terribly defeated in sword forging, even ruining the Villa Master’s beloved object. You became the laughing stock of Hidden Sword Villa. Since you’ve registered today, I will let you witness the true Art of Sword Forging. I will shame you thoroughly!"

The Desireless Taoist’s face turned deathly pale. Just as he was about to speak, Ren Feifan stepped in front of his master and interrupted, "Stop, stop, stop—old man, are you brain-dead? Your voice is so shrill, it’s absolutely unbearable."

Elder Qiu’s eyes bulged in disbelief as he looked at Ren Feifan, pointing to his nose he said incredulously, "Kid, you’re not talking to me, are you?"

Ren Feifan glanced at Elder Qiu disdainfully, "Not only are you brain-dead, you’re an idiot. Look around the Sword Forging Square. Besides yourself, I can’t find a second person who acts like a fool. No, wait, not just acts—you simply are one."

Elder Qiu’s anger was instantly ignited. It was one thing for Ying Wanling to look down on him, but for this green youngster to also dare belittle him was simply courting death!

Just as he was about to take action, he noticed True Qi surging in the Desireless Taoist’s arm, making it clear that if he were to make a move, the latter would not hesitate to retaliate!

Elder Qiu had no choice but to retract his hand, pointing at Ren Feifan and demanding, "What the hell are you? You dare to talk to me like that?"

"Slap!"

Ren Feifan slapped the pointing finger away without the slightest politeness!

"Who I am is not important. What’s important is that you still want to challenge my master. Are you even worthy? If you want to challenge my master, you’ll have to defeat me first!"

After speaking, Ren Feifan turned around and addressed the person responsible for registration, "The competitor, disciple of Ying Wanling, Ren Feifan! Sign me up!"

It took a while for the registrar to recover from the shock, but he hastily wrote Ren Feifan’s name on a competition plaque and handed it over with both hands.

He had a feeling that this Sword Forging Contest might be the most interesting one in history!

Because Ying Wanling had actually come back!

And he brought his disciple to participate in the Sword Forging Contest.

Definitely explosive news!

For decades, a story about Ying Wanling had been circulating within Hidden Sword Villa.

However, Ying Wanling’s tale ended tragically, as that event led to his utter disgrace and permanent expulsion from Hidden Sword Villa.

Elder Qiu snorted coldly, "Wait and see!"

With that said, he swept his sleeves and strode towards the center of the Sword Forging Square!

There was still some time before the big competition. Standing at the top, Ren Feifan looked down to see that the Sword Forging Square was circular with a raised center, clearly the competition area. In the middle, there were a hundred Forging Furnaces burning fiercely.

Above hung a purple Crystal Stone.

This purple Crystal Stone was providing energy to the hundred Forging Furnaces below, an indication of the immense and volatile power contained within.

Around the elevated area were many luxurious seats, clearly prepared by Hidden Sword Villa for some distinguished guests, while the outer rings were standing areas for the audience.

The seats were already packed to the brim. In the competition area, most of the Forging Furnaces were manned by participants, all poised and ready, standing proudly with arrogance written all over their faces.

They all believed that Hidden Sword Villa was the starting point of their path to proving themselves!

"Do you really have confidence, disciple?"

By this moment, Wuyu Daoren still harbored some doubts about Ren Feifan’s actions.

Although this lad was reliable, when it came to forging swords, he really wasn’t one to be complimented.

Ren Feifan smiled and said, "Although I don’t know what kind of grievances and hardships Master has suffered here before, today, I will tear apart all those ugly faces in your name!"

Wuyu Daoren was startled, just about to say something when Ren Feifan had already leaped into the competition area.

Since Ren Feifan was the last to sign up, he was naturally assigned to the 100th forging furnace.

The competition field.

As soon as Ren Feifan appeared, all eyes fell on him.

That was because the news that Ying Wanling had returned with a disciple had spread throughout Sword Forging Square!

What was more critical, the once laughingstock of Hidden Sword Villa, Ying Wanling, actually let his disciple participate in this grand sword forging contest?

Wasn’t this asking for a beating?

Which of the Casting Sword Masters who managed to take the stage was weak?

This place even housed a few Artifact Refiners who had just stepped into the fifth rank.

Although it was impossible to forge a fifth-tier sword on the spot, a top-quality fourth-tier Spirit Sword could already secure first place here!

Elder Qiu just happened to be at the 75th position in front of Ren Feifan. He turned around and looked at Ren Feifan with interest, saying ominously, "Comparing sword forging with me is simply courting death! My goal today is to forge a fourth-tier sword! Do you understand what a fourth tier means? You will never be able to comprehend it!"

"Fourth tier is amazing? If you can forge a fourth tier, I’ll forge a fifth tier..." Ren Feifan played with some materials beside him, disdainfully said.

As these words came out, the entire Sword Forging Square burst into laughter!

"This guy must be here to put on a play, actually saying he could refine a fifth-tier!"

"Haha, look at this kid, does he even look like an Artifact Refiner? He must be here to make up the numbers!"

"This kid can’t be thinking he’s Duan Qintian, right? Truly shameless!"

"Don’t even think about who his master is. With his master being such a failure back then to the point of causing that incident, how good can his disciple be?"

"You’re absolutely right, if I were this kid I’d wish I could just find a hole to crawl into!"

Everyone’s hearts were filled with disdain!

For them, Ren Feifan was truly ignorant and fearless, because a fifth-tier sword couldn’t be dealt with in just a few short days!

Normally, it would require at least seventy-four days of forging to be completed.

What’s more crucial, fifth-rank Artifact Refiners generally couldn’t successfully refine on the spot, only sixth-rank Artifact Refiners could refine during the competition!

Could this kid be a sixth-rank Artifact Refiner?

What a joke!

In Huaxia’s secular world, it was simply impossible for there to be another sixth-rank Artifact Refiner!

A fifth-rank Artifact Refiner was already a rarity in the secular world!

Even the youngest fifth-rank Artifact Refiners were already sixty years old!

Right there on the spot!

At the first forging furnace!

Hidden Sword Villa’s second elder, Duan Qintian!

Duan Qintian glanced at Ren Feifan and snorted coldly, "Ignorant junior! Seeking attention! Destined to not go far on the path of Artifact Refining and sword forging!"

Having said that, he closed his eyes and waited for the contest to begin.
