Zhou Shu’s words were like thunder in the ears of the forgers.
To give everyone who wanted to learn the art of forging a chance to learn?
If someone had said this in the Ten Nations, it would have been outrageous.
Forging techniques had always been secret techniques passed down from father to son, master to disciple. Not to mention ordinary people, even most Forging Apprentices in the various forging divisions would never have the chance to learn a true forging technique.
No one was willing to publicize the ability that earned their livelihood. Even the imperial families of the various nations had never dared to risk universal condemnation.
But now that Zhou Shu had said it, Li Chengliang and the others didn’t find it strange at all.
First, Zhou Shu had already raised this point of view long ago. Second, they felt that someone like Zhou Shu was always right and had his own reasons.
Of course, most importantly, Zhou Shu’s words were beneficial to them.
People were always selfish. If it concerned their interests, they would definitely not give in. But if they could learn the forging technique of connate divine weapons, why would they object?
Shi Songtao wanted to stop Zhou Shu several times, but the excitement of the forgers gave him no chance to speak.
He sighed inwardly.?The pavilion master is muddle-headed.
How could he teach the connate divine weapon forging technique to outsiders so easily?
This is the exclusive secret technique of the Huaxia Pavilion, the foundation of the Huaxia Pavilion!
......
“Your Highness, you really shouldn’t have said that in public. How can the forging technique of connate divine weapons be revealed so easily?” Shi Songtao chased after Zhou Shu and tried his best to persuade him.
“When did I reveal it easily? I said people could learn it with points, but I didn’t say how many points it would take,” Zhou Shu said casually. “Can’t you just set up an impossible point amount?”
“Although we can do that, it’s better to be safe than sorry. What if someone achieves it? Your Highness, you shouldn’t have taken out the forging technique of connate divine weapons!” At this moment, there were no outsiders, so Shi Songtao spoke without any scruples.
Even though he really wanted to learn the forging technique of connate divine weapons, in his opinion, for the future of the Huaxia Pavilion, the forging technique of connate divine weapons had to be a secret that couldn’t be easily taught!
“I understand what you’re saying.” Zhou Shu smiled. “But you’re overthinking it. These things don’t lie in secret techniques but in people.
“I’ve taught you the cultivation technique of the Iron Smelting Hands. Have you mastered it?”
Shi Songtao’s face instantly fell. The Iron Smelting Hands Technique was not meant for humans to cultivate.
He wondered how the king had mastered it.
But the king was no ordinary man. It was not surprising that he had mastered it.
“I even handed the Iron Smelting Hands Technique to Great Qin’s Xu Shi. You know Xu Shi, right? He’s a famous Grandmaster, and he might not have mastered the Iron Smelting Hands Technique even now.”
Zhou Shu continued, “It’s the same for the forging technique of connate divine weapons. Even if I make it public now, I’m afraid that only one in ten thousand people can forge connate divine weapons.”
One in ten thousand was just Zhou Shu being polite. In fact, in his opinion, even if he made the forging technique of connate divine weapons public, at least for now, no forger in the world could forge connate divine weapons according to his method.
There was a very important thing required when he forged the divine weapon the Crimson Firmament Sword—his divine sense!
Zhou Shu’s divine sense came from cultivating the Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form.
From his observation, the martial artists of the Ten Nations Continent, including the first-rank martial artists, didn’t have divine sense.
The mental strength of first-rank martial artists was condensed and powerful, but they were still a distance away from being able to have divine sense.
The mental strength of the Great Demons in the Demon Realm was enough to have divine sense. In other words, according to the theory of martial arts, one had to at least have the cultivation of an Earth Immortal to have the chance to have divine sense.
In theory, to learn Zhou Shu’s connate divine weapon forging technique, one had to have the cultivation of an Earth Immortal!
But now, on the entire Ten Nations Continent, forget about forgers with the cultivation of Earth Immortals, there were only a handful of forgers with the cultivation of a first-rank martial artist.
Most forgers were not adept at the Martial Dao. Even Grand Craftsmen were only at the fifth or sixth rank.
In other words, none of the forgers in the Ten Nations could learn Zhou Shu’s connate divine weapon forging technique.
Not only not now, but probably not for a long time to come.
That was unless Zhou Shu also made his Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form public.
Even if the Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form was made public, no one would necessarily be able to master it. The Visualization of the Five Mountains’ True Form was even more demanding than the Iron Smelting Hands Technique.
Zhou Shu naturally wouldn’t explain these details to Shi Songtao.
“Deputy Pavilion Master Shi, look at the big picture.” Zhou Shu smiled. “We should focus on the entire forging world of the Ten Nations. Only with the art of forging can the forging world rise.
“Previously, everyone kept things to themselves, and this led to the continuous decline of the Ten Nations’ forging standards.
“What you’re worried about is actually very easy to solve. Our Great Xia’s Forging Division had a similar system in the past, but it just wasn’t implemented thoroughly enough.”
Shi Songtao was thoughtful. He was also from the Great Xia Forging Division. He was thinking about what Zhou Shu meant.
