He carefully put the Great Destroyer into a wooden box that he had made himself.
Zhou Shu sized up the forging materials piled in the forging room.
His excuse for going into seclusion this time was to forge the Dark Cloud Armor. But since he had time, he couldn’t stay idle.
Since the Great Destroyer Sword couldn’t be used for the time being, he had to forge a weapon for himself.
On the battlefield of the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, even if he was unwilling, there would be many times when he had to take action.
During this period of time, Zhou Shu’s overall strength had been increasing all the time.
Every weapon he forged that completed a kill brought him corresponding benefits.
It had to be said that war money was the most profitable in any world.
Zhou Shu could increase his strength just by forging some weapons. If others knew about this, they would be envious.
In addition to his various strengths, Zhou Shu’s grasp of forging materials was also becoming more and more proficient.
The Forging Materials Knowledge rewarded by the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword would increase his knowledge of a few additional forging materials almost every day.
Sun Gongping didn’t stay idle on the battlefield. His efficiency in killing even surprised Zhou Shu.
Zhou Shu was proficient in forging materials, so he knew the corresponding forging materials like the back of his hand. Correspondingly, his forging ability naturally increased day by day.
Now, even if the Legendary Armament Canon no longer rewarded him with secret forging formulas, Zhou Shu could easily develop a weapon himself.
After all, the Legendary Armament Canon had already taught him the basic formulas. All he had to do was to combine them.
He didn’t lack forging materials, nor did he lack forging ability. Now, Zhou Shu had to consider what weapon to forge.
I’m proficient in both sabers and swords. Should I forge a saber or a sword?
It wasn’t good to be too outstanding. There were too many choices to make.
Zhou Shu thought for a while and decided to stop worrying. Why did he have to make a choice?
Only children had to make choices. Adults could have everything!
I’m a Forging Master. It’s not too much to forge both a saber and a sword.
He closed his eyes and pondered.
A moment later, Zhou Shu opened his eyes. They shone brightly as he reached out and grabbed some forging materials.
He activated his Iron Smelting Hands Technique and began to forge bare-handed again.
While Zhou Shu was busy forging, Mi Ziwen was training the remaining thousand soldiers in the camp.
The camp looked calm now, but there were nearly 10,000 Demon Realm troops eyeing them covetously. In the distance, there were still countless enemies.
According to Han Dazhi, the enemies that came from the Demon Realm this time already had the power to destroy the ten nations’ armies.
Mi Ziwen was originally very desperate.
But after seeing Zhou Shu’s Dark Cloud Armor, he had a glimmer of hope.
No matter what, regardless of victory or defeat, a battle with the Demon Realm was inevitable.
In that case, he naturally had to be prepared.
…
At the same time, thousands of kilometers away, a humanoid demonic beast stood on a mountain peak with a frown.
Corpses littered the bottom of the mountain behind him, and blood flowed like a river.
Great Chen is equally vulnerable, the humanoid demonic beast thought.
Is Great Xia or Great Qin next?
As for the other nations, I’ll just let those brats practice. Great Qin is known as the strongest among the ten nations, so they should have some standards. Great Xia…
Yao Qing sent news that Great Xia seems to have produced an expert comparable to a great demon.
Forget it. The humanoid demonic beast shook his head.
In any case, if I go to the Great Xia army, I’ll have to pass by where the Great Qin army is. I’ll destroy the Great Qin army and meet that Great Xia martial artist who’s comparable to a great demon.
He took a step and vanished. When he reappeared, he was hundreds of meters away.
After several flashes, his figure disappeared into the distance.
…
In a forest, a group of people was quietly resting.
There were not many of them, only two to three hundred.
But strangely, these hundreds of people were all women!
If Zhou Shu were here, he would definitely be able to recognize two of them.
One was the cold Miss Lu Wenshuang, and the other was Liang Hongxiu, who Zhou Shu had once seen everything of.
Lu Wenshuang was dressed in a green dress that was covered in blood. It was a stark contrast to her usual clean and tidy appearance.
But she didn’t look hurt.
Liang Hongxiu’s situation wasn’t that good.
There was a wound several inches long on her cheek, which looked strangely terrifying.
Her injuries were considered relatively minor. The other women were all injured, and their injuries were not minor.
“General, I’m afraid we won’t survive the next battle.” Liang Hongxiu smiled bitterly at Lu Wenshuang. “General, you should leave first. Don’t be burdened by us.”
“That’s right, General. We’ll stay and fight the last battle with the demonic beasts. Even if we die, we won’t let them have it too easy.” The women chimed in.
Lu Wenshuang looked at everyone expressionlessly.
“If you have the time to talk nonsense, save it for recuperation,” Lu Wenshuang said coldly.
She laid her sword across her knees and closed her eyes.
Liang Hongxiu and the others smiled bitterly.
Their general really didn’t listen to advice.
There were originally a thousand of them, but this many of them were still alive now only because their general had charged forward fearlessly.
If not for them, the general could have easily come and gone on the battlefield alone.
“Cut the crap, Hongxiu,” an older female soldier said. “The general won’t abandon us in this situation. The next time we encounter the Demon Realm army, we’ll fight to the death.”
The female soldiers’ faces revealed their determination to die. Then they bandaged their wounds and began to race against time to recover their spiritual essence.
“Who is it? Come out!” Lu Wenshuang suddenly shouted. Sword light rose and flew into the forest.
“I am a lieutenant of the Great Xia Demon Executing Army, Zhang Heng!” A voice came from the forest.
Boom!
Lu Wenshuang’s sword stopped steadily at a man’s throat.
The man didn’t dare move. He gulped, his Adam’s apple bobbing.
Lu Wenshuang scanned the person and said coldly, “Demon Executing Army’s lieutenant?”
“That’s right.” the man said. “Are you Miss Lu Wenshuang of Qingzhou?”
“Are you alone?” Lu Wenshuang didn’t answer, nor did she retract her sword. She said coldly, “Why are you here?”
“I’m under the orders of the King of the South to contact the various troops of Great Xia. The King of the South has built a camp seven hundred kilometers away from here. All the troops of Great Xia can gather there!” Zhang Heng said solemnly.
“Zhou Shu?” Lu Wenshuang raised her eyebrows.
Liang Hongxiu was also in a daze. She didn’t expect to hear this name again when she was already prepared to die.
Ever since she left the capital, she had walked on the line of life and death several times. After so long, she had improved greatly and was now a ranked martial artist.
But she seemed to be getting further and further away from that person. The former superintendent of a Forging Division workshop was now the high and mighty King of the South.
“That’s right,” Zhang Heng said in a deep voice. “Miss Lu, I’ll lead the way. Let’s return to the camp and fight the Demon Realm again!”
…
In Huaxia Pavilion’s Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament branch, Zhou Shu revealed a look of joy.
After many days without sleep, he finally forged the weapon.
It had to be said that an increase in strength was very helpful to forging. His forging speed had increased greatly compared to before.
In the past, it would take at least double the time to complete this step. How could it be completed in a few days?
Next, it’s time to set the star paths, Zhou Shu thought excitedly.
Although it’s only a yellow-grade weapon, it’s mixed with the essence of metal this time. It shouldn’t be destroyed so easily.
With this saber and sword, I should be worthy of my reputation as the master of saber and sword.
