Chapter 39 You Can’t Beat Me in Eating Either (2/2)

“We start class tomorrow. So tomorrow night, after school, you’ll come with me.” Xie Xie coldly said.

“Alright!” Tang Wulin agreed without the slightest hesitation.

Yun Xiao said, “Xie Xie, just let it be. We’ll be staying in the same dormitory for the next six years.”

Xie Xie coldly looked at him, then unceremoniously laid down on his bottom bunk.

Tang Wulin asked Yun Xiao, “There won’t be any problems if I go out this afternoon, right?”

Yun Xiao answered, “We haven’t officially started classes yet, so naturally there won’t be any issues! You just need to be back before lights go out. Otherwise, you’ll be faced with disciplinary action.”

When he heard the words 'disciplinary action', Tang Wulin’s heart tightened up for a moment. He didn’t actually fear disciplinary action, instead he feared the potential fines.

“I’ll be back by then.”

After washing his dirty clothes and blanket, Tang Wulin left the dormitory. According to Mang Tian’s instructions, after arriving in Eastsea City, Tang Wulin needed to go to a place called the Blacksmith’s Association.

Mang Tian had given him the address of his workshop in Eastsea City. There wasn’t anyone working there, but it still had a forging room for Tang Wulin to use.

Mang Tian had told him that he needed to register at the Blacksmith’s Association in order to be able to accept tasks. These tasks would hone his skills. Every month, Mang Tian would come and inspect his progress as well as give him some instructions.

After accepting his fate when fusing with the little Grass Snake, Goldlight, Tang Wulin had become much more focused on forging, especially after completing the Thousand Refinements. Completing the Thousand Refinements had made him understand that in the future, he would likely become a blacksmith like his teacher. Thus, he couldn’t relax and had to continue refining his forging skills. Moreover, he could earn money by forging! In addition to supplementing his family’s income, he needed money to wander the continent in search of Na’er in the future.

He hadn’t asked Yun Xiao where the Blacksmith’s Association was because he didn’t want the other students to know he was a blacksmith.

He first went to the administration building to pay the fines before leaving the academy’s campus.

Eastsea City’s unfamiliar atmosphere once again press down on Tang Wulin’s heart. ‘Glorybound City really is the best. It was so nice and peaceful there.’

Although he didn’t know where the Blacksmith’s Association was, he still had a mouth below his nose. He could always just ask someone. After making several inquiries, he gained a rough understanding of where the Blacksmith’s Association was located.

Eastsea City was very big. In fact, it was several times larger than Glorybound City. For the sake of saving money, Tang Wulin walked the whole journey to the Blacksmith’s Association.

It wasn’t too bad. The Blacksmith’s Association was not that far from Eastsea Academy and Tang Wulin had eaten his fill during lunch. After walking for half an hour, his destination was already in sight.

The Blacksmith’s Association was easily recognizable with its grey colored building and height of thirty floors along with, at the very top, a design of a hammer. With this design, there wasn’t even a need to engrave the association’s name onto a plate.

Tang Wulin walked through the big glass doors on the first floor and was immediately faced with a ten-meter tall wall with an eight-meter tall golden hammer sculpture on it.

Although the Blacksmith’s Association wasn’t as rich as the Mecha Craftsmen's Association, it was still a necessary existence. A first-rate blacksmith’s status in society was exceedingly high. In fact, their status was comparable to that of mecha craftsmen grandmasters. In order to make a first-rate mecha, first-rate materials were naturally needed.As such, first-rate blacksmiths were needed to process first-rate materials!

The lounge on the first floor was very spacious and empty. There were only two young ladies dressed in grey at the reception desk.

“Little brother, who are you looking for?” When they saw Tang Wulin walk towards them, one of the two ladies who had a sweet looking appearance took the initiative to stand up and greet him.

Tang Wulin bashfully said, “I, I’m here to take the blacksmith’s ranking test.”
