Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The four grandmasters were in a daze when they saw the huge hole in the roof. This weapon seemed a little… fierce!
It rushed out before they had the time to open the dome.
Wang Teng felt a little awkward. After all, he had forged this baby and it smashed a hole in the Secondary Career Alliance’s roof instantly. Would they ask him to pay for the damage?
The loud commotion attracted the attention of the people outside the assessment room.
They pushed the door and entered, only to see Wang Teng and the four grandmasters staring at the sky. They looked up and were stunned.
(# ̄~ ̄#)
How was this big hole formed?
“Cough, it’s got nothing to do with me.” Wang Teng coughed awkwardly. He said in a guilty tone, “Grandmaster Mo De, you saw it. I’m innocent.”

Grandmaster Mo De and the other grandmasters were caught between laughter and tears. Wang Teng was skilled in pushing the blame.
“Grandmaster Wang Teng, your… Lightning Slap will be going through the lightning calamity soon. You should take a look,” Grandmaster Jiao Gaofeng reminded him quickly.
He paused for a second when saying the name because he didn’t know if it should still be called the Lightning Slap.
“No rush, let it roam around a little longer,” Wang Teng stared at the sky and said calmly with a smile.
“???”
Everyone was shocked and speechless.
Let it roam around a little longer?
People might think you are referring to a Husky!
“Grandmaster Wang Teng, you should take a look. As a new weapon, it won’t be able to withstand the destruction from the lightning calamity,” Grandmaster Boke said with a forced smile.
“You don’t believe me?” Wang Teng glanced at them strangely.
Everyone shook their heads spontaneously.
Who would!
They had never heard of a new grandmaster-level weapon that could withstand the lightning calamity alone. That was bullshit.
“Grandmaster Wang Teng, don’t joke with us. You worked hard to craft this weapon, Take a look at it quickly or your efforts might be wasted,” Grandmaster Alfred said.
“Let’s go out together.” Wang Teng laughed. He flew into the air without explaining himself.
The others followed him. They wanted to know what weapon Wang Teng had forged. Hence, all the grandmasters flew out of the dome and came outside.
The people outside had already noticed the strange occurrence in the sky. Those walking to and fro in the Secondary Career Alliance stopped in their tracks and looked up. Some even dashed out of the building. The people nearby were attracted too. Soon, a crowd had gathered.
Many of them had seen the lightning calamity in the morning. They didn’t expect to see another one before the day ended.
Normally, they would only see a lightning calamity every half a year. When did it become so common?
They wondered which grandmaster was it this time.
Soon, they saw a rectangular brick flying in the air. It floated in the purple-golden pillar of light, causing the Forces around it to tremble as if there was an earthquake.
“What’s that?”
“A brick?”
“Did I see wrong? Why is it a brick? The brick must be its disguise. It hasn’t revealed its true appearance yet.”
“That’s right. Who will make a brick for no reason?”

…
The crowd chatted among themselves. They were surprised when they saw the brick, but they soon made all kinds of guesses in their minds. No one felt that it was just purely a brick.
At that moment, Wang Teng appeared in the sky and attracted the crowd’s attention.
“Isn’t he the grandmaster alchemist from the morning?”
“Why is he beside the weapon?”
“Oh my, did he craft this weapon?”
“I don’t think so. This might be just a coincidence. He’s just coming out to take a look. Look, he’s not moving. If he made it, he wouldn’t leave it by itself.”
“You’re right. There are many other grandmasters beside him. That Grandmaster Hua Yuan is an alchemist. I have met him once.”
“Grandmaster Alfred is here too. He’s a rune grandmaster. They’re all here to watch the show.”
…
The people below were in an uproar. Many of them recognized Wang Teng as the grandmaster alchemist in the morning and started to make their own guesses.
Since he was the first to appear, the majority of the people felt that he was the creator of the Lightning Slap.
However, Wang Teng acted like a spectator with numerous other grandmasters standing beside him. Hence, they didn’t think too much and threw this thought out of their mind.
After all, a grandmaster alchemist couldn’t become a grandmaster blacksmith, right?
Boom!
Suddenly, the dark clouds started churning. Silver-white lightning slashed through the clouds as thunder echoed in the sky.
“The lightning calamity is here. Where is the blacksmith? Why hasn’t he appeared?” Everyone stared at the dark clouds grimly. They were confused.
Boom!
A bolt of lightning shot down without any warning. Since there was no one there to stop it, the silver-white lightning bolt landed directly on the Lightning Slap.
Everyone’s heart stopped beating simultaneously. No one came out to protect the brick!
Is the blacksmith going to let the weapon undergo the tribulation alone?
Which grandmaster blacksmith is so heartless?
Isn’t he afraid of damaging his treasure?
Grandmaster Mo De and the others were filled with apprehension. They were afraid that the bolt of lightning would turn this Lightning Slap into scrap.
They watched Wang Teng forge this Lightning Slap, but right at the end, they still had to withstand this torture.
When the bolt of lightning struck the Lightning Slap, countless sparks flashed around it, giving off loud crackling sounds. The sparks spread out like tiny silver snakes, covering the entire sky in an instant. It was terrifying.
The Lightning Slap was swallowed by the bolt of lightning. Only a patch of white pointed to its location.
Boom!
This wasn’t the end. The second bolt of lightning came and slammed into the Lightning Slap. The white light grew brighter. It was so glaring that no one could look straight at it.
Endless lightning Force surged towards the Lightning Slap. The impact and destruction it caused were frightening. A normal weapon might have already been destroyed if they suffered this crushing blow.
But through his Eyes of Essence, Wang Teng could see that the Lightning Slap was absorbing the lightning Force.
As the lightning Force swarmed into the weapon, the patterns on the surface of the Lightning Slap grew deeper. It looked even more magical.
Boom!
The third lightning had arrived. It was three times thicker than the first two.
Wang Teng didn’t move. He watched the lightning slam into the Lightning Slap with a calm expression as if an unimportant thing was suffering this lightning calami
