Forging The Path To Godliness

Chapter 69: Agreeing

Blake felt shocked when he saw the stage five weapon in Ye Feng’s hand.

As a Blacksmith, he knew the value of a stage five weapon, but he did not think that Ye Feng would be able to own one and even use it to bet so easily.

He could not help but feel shocked by this stage five weapon, at this point in time, he had already recognized Ye Feng as an expert, but he did not think that Ye Feng would have a stage five weapon.

There was no need for Ye Feng to speak anymore, Blake directly went to check Ye Feng’s weapon.

The truth was, this was quite rude, but he could not care about that now.

The act of Blake checking the weapon was also not stopped by Ye Feng, he knew that this was the best way for Blake to recognize that he had a genuine stage five weapon, it had the greatest benefit for him.

When inspecting the weapon, Blake also realized that he had been too rude, he awkwardly walked away from the Lightning Refinement Sword but his gaze lingered on it.

Blake was not a fool, he knew what a stage five weapon meant. As a Blacksmith, he understood that this stage five weapon that Ye Feng had was not fake, thus, he could basically confirm that Ye Feng was the owner of a stage five weapon.

Blake’s expression became slightly calm again, it was the best he could do, internally, he felt extremely curious about Ye Feng’s identity.

What kind of person was Ye Feng? Why could he take out a stage five weapon so easily?

Such questions revolved around Blake’s mind, in this situation, he could not help but feel curious.

Precisely because of this, Blake thought about it and agreed to Ye Feng’s condition: “I can promise you this, but you know the value and rarity of stage five materials as well, I need time to get one.”

Blake’s reply was within Ye Feng’s expectations: “Alright, we can compete here after you are done getting the materials.”

“Then we have a deal.”

“Deal.”

Although he still did not understand why Blake insisted on a competition, all of the earlier signs showed that he was definitely not weaker than Blake.

After seeing that Ye Feng agreed to the competition, Blake sighed in relief. In the past, he had said many inappropriate things because of his arrogance, thus, many people were waiting to see him blunder and fail.

Blake also knew that his arrogance caused him to greatly underestimate Ye Feng’s abilities, because of that, in their previous duel, Ye Feng completely dominated him without any chance of fighting back.

This was undoubtedly an extremely embarrassing event for Blake, but the reason why he was so stubborn in wanting to compete with Ye Feng in forging skills was not because he wanted to prove he was stronger than Ye Feng. Instead, he only wanted to see the difference between him and Ye Feng.

Furthermore, Blake still held a bit of hope in this matter — What if?

What if he really could beat Ye Feng?

Furthermore, Blake was filled with curiosity regarding Ye Feng, he wanted to know what Ye Feng’s true forging skills were.

The reason why he dared to provoke Ye Feng earlier was because he had heard of Ye Feng’s strength, otherwise, he would not have dared to repeatedly provoke an expert. If his information was not wrong, then this only proved one terrifying fact —

Ye Feng had raised his strength to a shocking level in a short period of time.

Thus, even when Ye Feng gave an absurd request like betting using stage five materials, Blake agreed to it after some consideration.

After Ye Feng agreed to the competition with Blake, the latter left quickly.

For the next few days, Blake did not show up even once. During this period, for the first time in his life, Ye Feng wished that Blake would come to him sooner.

But after a week, Blake still showed up. He looked at Ye Feng without speaking while putting some things on the table.

The bag was very heavy, once it landed on the table, there was a loud thud.

But Ye Feng did not open the bag, the truth was that he could basically be sure that Blake would not deceive him in such a matter.

“I’ve brought what you want, we can compete now, right?” Blake looked at Ye Feng and said.

Blake indicated to Ye Feng to open up the bag and inspect the content, but at this point, Ye Feng rejected the offer. Blake was still a reliable person when it came to matters like this.

“No need to inspect it, I trust you.” Ye Feng looked at Blake and rejected the offer to check the bag.

Ye Feng had not thought that Blake would really be able to find stage five materials, but since he had made a promise, Ye Feng would not go back on his word: “Earlier, I said that we can compete if you bring me stage five materials. Since you’ve brought them, we can compete now.”

Saying so, Ye Feng brought out the Lightning Refinement Sword that he was using as a bet, he looked at Blake.

Blake received the Lightning Refinement Sword from Ye Feng, the fact was that last time, he did not inspect it carefully, but now, this was a great chance. Blake would not waste the opportunity to observe it.

When the Lightning Refinement Sword appeared, Blake’s eyes widened. Last time, he had only confirmed that this was a genuine sword, but he had still underestimated the quality of this sword.

This was definitely a stage five middle-grade weapon.

Why did Ye Feng possess such a thing?

Blake looked at this Lightning Refinement Sword as a thought emerged in his mind, he definitely had to get this sword.

The only thing stopping him was this competition.

If he won, this sword would become his possession.
