Chapter 48 - Weapon Smith Tower
Jian and Yu Yue were flying towards the city. They were not in a hurry so they flew at normal speed and after three hours they reach the city.
They entered the city. There was no change in the atmosphere of the city. The city was still bustling with the cultivators and sects. Some were arguing, some were selling things.
Jian and Yu Yue didn\'t stop but still, they moved slowly through the city checking everything. Jian and Yu Yue took one hour to reach the Central area.
Jian said, " Yue\'er are you ready for the exam."
For some reason, Yu Yue\'s face had lost color. She looked like she is ill. Seeing this Jian sighs.
Jian said, " Yue\'er you don\'t need to be afraid. even if you fail what could go wrong. You don\'t need to feel pressured if you don\'t want to take the exam you can tell me."
Yu Yue shocked her head and said, " No matter I will take the examination, I am just feeling nervous."
Jian asked, "Are you sure? "
Yu Yue nodded and Jian said, " Let go then."
Yu Yue and Jian then started to move towards a tower. After walking for ten minutes through the crowd they reached a tower where weapons were drawn as a symbol. It indicated Weapon Smith Tower.
Jian and Yu Yue went inside the tower. In the tower, they saw that many weapons were hanged on the stands and people were crowding the area. Jian activated Star Gaze and saw that the weapons mostly were one-star and only a small amount of the weapons were two-starting
Jian and Yu Yue checked the tower and after that, they moved towards the desk where a girl was standing.
The girl said, " We\'ll come to the weapons tower I am Xiang Nue, what can I do for you?"
Jian said, "Miss Xiang we are here to take the smith exam. "
Xiang Nue said, " Ohh, do you have your apprentice token."
Jian nodded and Looked towards Yu Yue to take the token. Yu Yue also nodded and took out the token and handed it to Xiang Nue.
Xiang Nue took the token and put it on a small formation. After few seconds she took the token.
Xiang Nue said, " This is Your first time taking the exam are you want to take the exam."
Yue hesitated for a while and after few minutes she said, " Yes".
Xiang Nue, "Ok if you fail the exam you will not be able to take the exams for three months and You have to pay 20 SP and if you need materials You will need to pay 30 SP."
Jian didn\'t hesitate and transferred 30 SP to her.
After that, she took the Yu Yue token and again put it on the formation for few seconds.
Xiang Nue said, " Ok you have registered to take an exam today a person will come and take you to the exam site. Let me explain the exam. You have to refine a weapon in three hours in presence of One Star Weapon Smith and if the Weapon Smith says that the weapon is ok you will pass the exam and since you also opted for materials. It will be provided in the exam hall."
Yu Yue nodded and she and Jian moved aside waiting for the person to come. Jian looked at Yu Yue and smiled. Because she was looking nervous. Jian pointed a finger between her brows and said, " Close your eyes " And after she closed her eyes he started to send the process of refining the weapon which was provided by the system for him.
Jian said, look at the process and compare it with yours. You will not have any problems passing the exam."
Yu Yue\'s eyes were closed and when she heard Jian she started to go through the process continuously.
A half an hour later a person came to Xiang Nue and she pointed at them. Jian understood that this was the person who is going to take Yu Yue for examination. Jian woke up Yu Yue. All nervousness was gone. Now she was very calm.
A person came towards them and asked, " Who is going to take the examination."
Yu Yue said, " I am"
A person nodded and said, "Let\'s Go"
Yu Yue looked at Jian and said, " Master I am going " Jian nodded and she went with the person for the examination.
Jian looked at Yu Yue and after few seconds she was gone. Jian sighs and moves towards the desk where Xiang Nue is sitting.
Xiang Nue saw that Jian was coming towards her. She still sat in her position and after few seconds when Jian reached the desk.
Xiang Nue asked, " What can I do for you."
Jian said, " I am here for the weaponsmith exam."
Xiang Nue nodded and said, " Yes she went for the exam it will require three hours to finish. If you want you can wait at the side."
Xiang Nue thought that Jian was still asking about the exam for Yu Yue and is asking about how much time will require to finish.
Hearing her response Jian smiled and shook his head.
Jian said, " I know that it will require three hours for the exam. What I am saying is that I also want to take part in the exam. "
Xiang Nue thought that she heard something wrong from Jian because she was shocked and was angry when she heard Jian saying that he also wants to take the exam.
Xiang Nue frowned and asked, " Why didn\'t you say earlier? If You had then you would have gone earlier with the girl who came with you."
Jian nodded and said, " I know that. but I don\'t want to take that exam."
Xiang Nue frowned and she was getting angry but she still didn\'t say anything.
Xiang Nue gritted her teeth and asked, " Then which exam are you talking about."
Jian was not angered by her way of asking and said, " I want to take the exam for weaponsmith but, the exam will be graded by the heavenly formation. "
Xiang Nue was shocked and she said, " What!"
Because Xiang Nue has shouted everyone\'s attention was draw towards them. Xiang Nue became ashamed and after clearing her throat.
Xiang Nue asked " You sure you want to take that exam. "
Jian smiled and nodded. Seeing Jian nodding she said, " Wait here" and she left the desk.
Jian knew she was going to look for someone with higher authority so he waited for her to return.
