“Come on in,” Mang Tian stated to Tang Wulin.

“Oh.”

Tang Wulin adopted Mang Tian into the workshop’s chaotic corridor. The corridor was suffering from all types of metallic elements Tang Wulin may barely acknowledge. Most of those had been possible elements for soul machines, although.

Mang Tian didn’t pause as he walked deeper into the workshop, inflicting Tang Wulin to hasten his steps.

The store wasn’t massive nor small. After passing by way of the halls, Mang Tian introduced Tang Wulin to one of many inside rooms.

Within the room was a workbench, which was simply barely taller than Tang Wulin.

Mang Tian stopped right here, turning round to face Tang Wulin. “Have you learnt what forging is?”

At a loss, Tang Wulin shook his head.

Mang Tian indifferently stated, “Truly, I didn’t need to settle for you at first. You’re too younger, utterly unsuited for forging. Nevertheless, your dad was decided to have me offer you an opportunity. If I don’t discover you acceptable, then you definately’ll have to go away. When that occurs, don’t keep right here and weep endlessly, perceive?”

“I received’t cry, Uncle Mang Tian,” Tang Wulin defiantly answered.

“That is your process for right now,” Mang Tian stated as he pointed to the facet.

Off to the facet was a half meter tall metallic desk. On prime of the desk was a spherical lump of metallic and beneath it was a soul machine display screen.

Mang Tian picked up two small metallic hammers from the facet and held them out to Tang Wulin. “You see that lump of metallic? Use this hammer to strike it a thousand instances. The display screen will show the variety of hits with ample power. It’ll require all of your power to swing it down. If you happen to’re capable of full this process, I’ll inform you what forging is. If you happen to’re unable to complete, then you definately don’t have to come back right here tomorrow.”

After talking, he positioned the 2 hammers in Tang Wulin’s arms earlier than turning round and strolling away.

The metallic hammer’s deal with was a couple of third of a meter with a cylindrical head that was half a foot lengthy and ten centimeters in diameter. They weighed about 5 kilograms every. For a six yr outdated little one, this wasn’t gentle in any respect, not to mention the truth that he needed to swing it a thousand instances.

Tang Wulin had seemed on the hammer with a bitter expression, however when he took the hammer from Mang Tian, he was amazed to find they weren’t so heavy, in spite of everything.

Is it hole? Uncle Mang Tian seems very fierce on the surface, however he’s truly so form.

Tang Wulin smiled to convey his understanding and swung the hammer in his proper hand down on the lump of metallic.

Bang! The metallic boomed and he jumped in shock. The soul display screen beneath it activated, displaying the quantity ‘1.’

He raised the hammer in his left hand and smashed it down with a bang!

2.

‘This isn’t too arduous!’ Tang Wulin thought as he started swinging his arms in a gentle rhythm.

“Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang!” The numbers on the display screen elevated unceasingly in tune with the continual thumping. Neither hammer wavered in any respect, as Tang Wulin didn’t really feel they had been an excessive amount of of a burden. The pair of hammers continuously beat down the the lump of metallic, and in return, the quantity on the display screen continued in its ascension.

After hammering it for the hundredth time, Tang Wulin was already starting to sweat. At 300, his arms started to really feel sore.

I need to persevere. Dad stated so. I need to persevere!

Tang Wulin continued to swing the pair of hammers, enduring the soreness.

At 5 hundred, the soreness was aching, however he continued on simply as earlier than and continued with all his energy, refusing to cease.

Because the aching in his muscle groups intensified, Tang Wulin’s arms shifted to a faint purple, however he simply clenched his enamel, pushing previous the ache.

He repeated to himself, ‘I need to do my finest to be taught forging and earn cash to purchase a spirit soul. That method I could make mother and pop comfortable, and shield Na’er.”

On the seven hundred mark, he couldn’t even really feel his arms when he raised them and his hammering pace was a lot slower.

Identical to earlier than, he clenched his enamel and persevered. His sweat had virtually was broth, making his faculty uniform to stay to his physique. His sweat dripped like a waterfall, and Tang Wulin felt his backbone go numb. His entire physique shuddered as if he had been electrically shocked. His unique aching eased up, and the hammer felt a bit lighter.

“Bang, bang, bang!” He proceeded to strike the final 300 instances with much more ease than the beginning.

“One thousand!” It was solely after reaching the target Mang Tian had set for him that Tang Wulin lowered his hammers. As he gasped for breath, Tang Wulin may really feel an unspeakable aching from his palms and his arms had swollen a lot that they had been past recognition. Aside from this, he felt unexpectedly invigorated. The numbness in his backbone unfold to his seven vertebrae and again down his backbone in cycles, leaving him speechless.

What he didn’t discover was a golden veined sample accompanying the numbness he felt in his backbone.

It was solely after 5 minutes that he was capable of catch his breath.

“Uncle Mang Tian, I’m achieved.” Tang Wulin looked for Mang Tian for a very long time earlier than discovering him in a room, fidgeting with some elements.

Mang Tian blankly stared at him. He glanced at his wristwatch and found that it had solely been half an hour since he left Tang Wulin to his process.

“You’re achieved hammering it?”

“Sure!” Tang Wulin nodded.

Mang Tian didn’t query him once more after seeing his sweaty look. He would fairly let the information converse for themselves. After standing up, he introduced Tang Wulin again to the earlier room.

‘1000.’ The quantity was displayed on the display screen. Mang Tian had arrange the display screen himself; naturally, it was not possible for a six yr outdated little one to cheat. However the consequence was nonetheless unbelievable.

The 2 metallic hammers couldn’t be thought-about heavy for him, in fact, however neither had been they hole. Every hammer was actually 5 kilograms in weight, and even an grownup male’s arms could be too numb and limp to lift after a thousand swings. Moreover, it will be very troublesome for them to complete in solely half an hour, a lot much less a six yr outdated little one.

The check Mang Tian had given him was only a option to tactfully decline him. His relationship with Tang Ziran was fairly good, so he couldn’t immediately refuse. In any case, he didn’t need to instruct a six yr outdated little one who he deemed unsuitable for forging.

However earlier than his eyes…

“Hammer it a number of extra instances for me. Don’t cease until I inform you to.” Mang Tian stated closely.

“Sure.” Tang Wulin picked up the hammer as soon as once more. After having rested a second, the aching in his arms had already dulled.

“Bang, bang, bang…” Every strike was achieved with none method, and even leverage. He was relying purely on power to hammer the metallic lump!

After only some instances, Mang Tian was capable of confirm along with his personal eyes, based mostly on his previous expertise, that this little one’s power was ample to utterly pound the metallic lump.

Was this a legendary genius?
