Bab 160: “Iron” Smithy (3)
2637, 2638, 2639. With only three years of time, he was already a Spirit Grandmaster? A Spirit Grandmaster over rank twenty? He didn't look over fifteen, but it was year 2643, which meant he broke through rank two to four years ago.
This time, Tie Xin was thoroughly surprised. Ignoring the useless blue silver grass spirit and just judging by spirit power, he definitely was a prodigy, so much more outstanding than his two sons.
"Uncle Tie, have you finished looking?" Tang San asked politely.
Iron Heart silently gave the Spirit Master letter back to Tang San. He had already memorized the serial number on it and could verify it at anytime.
"Spirit Grandmaster Tang San, I apologize for the offense earlier." Tie Xin said solemnly.
Tang San smiled while shaking his head, "It's nothing, it's hard to do business. If it was me, I might be even more suspicious. After all, I am quite young."
Tie Xin couldn't help but ask, "Can you tell me how old you are?"
Tang San didn't keep it a secret, "I'll be thirteen in a few months."
Tie Xin sucked in a cold breath. Not even thirteen, which meant he was only twelve, and it was four years ago, which meant he became a Spirit Grandmaster when he was only eight. Was this real? Was it possibly real?
"Spirit Grandmaster Tang San, I still have one last request. Can I see your spirit rings?"
A twelve year old Spirit Grandmaster, to Tie Xin, was an absolutely unbelievable thing. After all, there were only seven of Shrek's monsters, and it wasn't something normal people could understand.
When Tie Xin said this, even he felt it was a bit excessive, a bit too paranoid, his face slightly apprehensive.
Tang San however didn't mind. He needed a long term cooperation with the smithy. Getting their trust was obviously very important. Tie Xin's every action was steady, and combined with the size of this smithy, everything was very satisfying.
"Sure." Tang San slowly raised his left hand, a blue glow quietly bubbled forward.
Tie Xin looked closely at Tang San, waiting for the spirit rings that follow the appearance of the spirit.
Maybe the Spirit Master Letter could be forged, but spirit rings couldn't be faked. That was the real proof of a Spirit Master's rank.
Lustrous purplish blue Blue Silver Grass milled out of Tang San's palm, instantly spreading out, hanging down onto the ground and quickly covering the entire room's floor. At the same time, three beautiful spirit rings appeared and levitated from his feet, two yellow and one purple. Three very distinct spirit rings revolved around his body rhythmically bobbing.
At this time, the air seemed as if it solidified, everything in the room became ethereal.
Tie Xin's mouth gaped open, eyes staring rigidly at the spirit rings on Tang San. His hands unconsciously shuddered.
"You. You….."
Tang San said:
"I just got my third spirit ring. I haven't had time to register it at Spirit Hall, so the Spirit Master Letter doesn't have the record of me becoming a Spirit Elder."
Three, was that really three? Tie Xin's heart was shaking. Twelve years old, Spirit Elder, over level thirty, blue silver grass. These words constantly circled around in Tie Xin's mind. His mind blanked, an indescribable feeling filled his chest.
From Tang San, Tie Xin felt a pressure, the pressure of a higher ranked Spirit Master.
"Are you really only twelve?"
Tie Xin asked difficulty.
At that moment, suddenly the door opened. A tall figure walked in from outside.
"Dad, I heard the people at the front say that there is a big customer? Ah!? This is…."
The tall figure suddenly froze. Under the pressure of the blue silver grass, he immediately released his spirit, two yellow hundred year spirit rings rising from his feet.
"It's you."
It was Tie Long who came in. When he saw Tang San, he cried out in surprise. Especially after he saw the purple third spirit ring on Tang San, his expression changed abruptly.
Tie Xin after all had been through a lot. He already recovered from his shock.
"A Long, you recognize Spirit Elder Tang San?"
Tie Long opened his eyes wide open, staring at Tang San's third spirit ring. Slightly dejected, he said:
"Dad, you still remember the time my brother and I lost to two children in the Spirit Arena? It was Tang San and another girl's group called the Three Five Combination. That time Tang San even stopped Xiao Wu from heavily injuring us. Tang San, you actually broke through rank thirty?"
Tang San retracted his spirit, the blue silver grass and the spirit rings disappearing at the same time. Smiling and nodding towards Tie Long, he said,
"Big brother Tie, greetings. Last time we were battling at the Spirit Arena, I was already rank twenty nine. A couple of days ago, I had a bit of fortune and broke through rank thirty."
Tie Long laughed bitterly,
"Compared with you, my brother and I are simply useless. The people at the front said a big customer came. Is it you?"
Tang San chuckled and said
"How is it not me? This time I intentionally came to inconvenience you. Only I didn't realize it was your family's smithy."
Tie Xin sighed in his mind. His gaze towards Tang San had changed entirely. Maybe he wasn't sure what a twelve year old Spirit Elder really meant, but even if he had no foresight he could see that Tang San's future was immeasurable.
"Spirit Elder Tang San, I apologize for the doubt I had. I have no problem with working together. Let's do it the way you said before."
Tang San secretly let a breath out. He finally agreed to the cooperation. This way, Tang San could have more time to cultivate and create stronger hidden weapons.
"Uncle Tie, I still want to buy a set of blacksmithing tools of the best quality. Please help me deliver it to the academy. I'll tell you the address later."
Tie Xin decisively said: "No problem, whatever you need in the future, just come to us for it. If it is within our ability, we'll give it to you. Don't worry, I will let Tie Long and Tie Hu take it over, so the quality won't be a problem. Those two kids were taught by me. Their skills are the best in the smithy."
Tang San said: "Then sorry for the inconvenience, Tie brothers."
After leaving the address of Shrek Academy and paying one hundred gold spirit coins, Tang San, under the escort of the Tie family, left the smithy.
"Uncle Tie, Tie Brothers, you don't have to see me off anymore. I'll put my purchases in your care. After you finish forging them, let someone notify me and I will come retrieve it. Sorry for the inconvenience, but try to send the blacksmithing tools to me as soon as possible, as well as the minerals I specified."
"Don't worry. I'll tell someone to send those things to you tomorrow. By the way, Spirit Elder Tang San, does your school still accept students? If my two useless sons can go to your academy, I think their abilities will grow very quickly." Tie Xin saw with his own eyes Tang San's abilities. An academy that can educate spirit masters like Tang San was definitely something enticing.
Tang San said: "I'm afraid not, my academy has high standards and only admits people under twelve. The Tie Brothers are already too old."
Tie Long said: "It's fine dad. Being at Suotuo Advanced Spirit Master Academy also works. We will try hard to get to rank thirty as soon as possible."
When they came Ma Hongjun already told Tang San to not wait for him. After Tang San left the smithy, he didn't linger in Suo Tuo City and immediately went back to the academy. To him, the rest of the day will be past through cultivating. Tang San never thought he was a prodigy. He only brought the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record to this world. The innate full spirit power and the fast cultivation was all due to the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record. So, he must not slack off.
The next morning, Tang San habitually climbed to the rooftop to cultivate his Purple Demon Eyes, breathing in the purple air from the east brought by the morning sun.
The sky was clear. Looking at the gradually rising orange sphere and the golden sky far away, Tang San slowly breathed out impure qi, his eyes full of purple. The three essences of his spirit almost simultaneously reached their peaks. he knows, he improved again. Coming back from Star Dou Great Forest up to now, he finally recovered all his power.
Although everyday he had to wake up early to cultivate, he didn't actually cultivate for long. The purple air from the east only maintained for a very short period.
It was time to eat. Tang San flipped down from the roof, going straight to the dining hall.
Without even going inside, Tang San smelled an overwhelming smell, a thick fragrance of meat with a few other smells wafted over, alluring Tang San.
Going into the dining hall, Tang San was immediately shocked by the sight. He was definitely the earliest of the students, but there was already a busy figure.
He continuously watched the pot, controlling the fire and busily managing all kinds of food, wearing a white chef's hat. Sweat dripped down the stiff face. It was Grandmaster. Unexpectedly, he was making everyone breakfast.
"Teacher."Tang San stepped into the cafeteria.
Grandmaster looked up and when he saw Tang San, he smiled. "You are never late."
Tang San quickly walked to the side, washed his hands, and returned to Grandmaster's side. "I'll help you." He knew, whenever Grandmaster did things, he did it to the end. There wasn't room for giving up halfway, so he didn't ask Grandmaster why he wanted to make breakfast for everyone, nor did he try to stop Grandmaster.
Grandmaster shook his head, "No need, I already finished everything. Come, try my workmanship."
