Ding* Ding*

The old man hammered away at the metal. The soothing sound of the metal appeared as though the hammer is a bow and the metal a violin. Ye Qin and Wang Tao watched without moving or saying anything as the old man continued hammering down onto the metal

After a while, the old man stopped pounding the piece of metal and put it into the furnace to heat it up slightly before taking it out and hammering a few times to get the shape he wanted then threw it into an ice cold bucket to cool it down

Shizz* Shizz*

The old man wiped his sweat away as his muscular body shone with a powerful light. He then turned around to face the two brothers and stared at them deeply for a brief moment before taking off his gloves and shoving them into his pockets. "So what do you think of my profession?" he asked

Thump*

Sitting down onto a trunk of wood, the old man stroked his white beard as he looked at the boys before him. "It's quite nice, I can feel your passion as well as your blood, sweat and tears in your smithing." Ye Qin replied

Wang Tao nodded, "I can tell that you truly love your work." he added. The old man continued stroking his beard before laughing out loud "Hahahahahahaha, I see."

"Well have a look around, I can tell the two of you appreciate smithing. If you come back, I'll let you in without taking a test." the old man said before standing up to take out the already cooled metal

The two boys nodded as they walked around to look at the surrounding work. From the left to the right, the walls are filled with all kinds of weapons. From swords, to maces, bows and shields as well as pieces of armour. Even different types of guns and what seemed to be failed work were on display

Ye Qin looked at a specific piece that hung up on the wall, kept safely inside a glass container. What he saw is the diagram of a monster core with detailed writing all over and labeling. Next to that, a blueprint of a sword shaped like an ember with the monster core placed in the centre

Many things that Ye Qin didn't recognise were also written on the blueprint that explained their properties. Reading and taking in the information, Ye Qin felt glad that he learnt something new that would benefit him in the future

As for Wang Tao, he looked at the piece next to the sword that Ye Qin was studying. What he saw is a chest piece that looked like the eyes of a demon. According to the blueprints, the armour could change shape according to the wearer, not only that, a monster core could be integrated into the armour to make it more durable whilst being able to give the user elemental attacks added on top based on the core used


Naturally this too is a failed piece and couldn't be brought to light. Wang Tao thought to himself "This is quite interesting, if such things could come to light, humanity will progress further and have another way of fighting the monsters."

"Maybe I should join this peak, it piqued my interest plus I don't need to take a test to join… Though it won't help me get any stronger, well there's still another eight peaks to have a look at. I'll probably join whichever peak boss decided to join anyway."

After having a look around and watching the other students hammering away at metal, the two boys walked back to the teleportation gate and teleported to the next peak



Whoosh* Whoosh*

Contrary to the barren sight of the Blacksmithing Peak, the Medicine Peak in front of them is full of live and lustrous grass. The peak appeared as though it were a place where all of nature resided, from beautiful rivers and tall mountains, to grass that behaved like hair as it swayed nicely along with the soft wind

Just like the Blacksmithing Peak, the Medicine Peak too had a large number of students doing their own things. The two walked around to see large gardens that grew strange looking plants as well as some familiar ones. The similarities between the Blacksmithing and the Medicine Peaks are that they haven't progressed during the thousand years since that era

Even when plants mutated or new species never before seen grew, humanity could only make simple medicines with them. Of course they have been tested, but even with humanity's greatest pride being their science, the plants still couldn't be fully utilised to this day

Walking deeper into the peak, the two brothers asked some questions to the older students who happily answered them. After exploring and getting some ideas for a while, they walked to the large towering gate

When they approached, the gate automatically opened slowly as they walked inside. When the two of them appeared on the other side, the gate closed off blocking their backs. On the other side of the gate, more students were busy writing onto paper or taking care of various plants and herbs

In the middle of the peak, a wooden house that didn't appear to be too old or too new stood. The two boys approached it and heard the sound of wood being chopped, looking around the back, they saw an old man holding an axe and hacking away at blocks of wood on top of a tree trunk

Beside him, a pretty young woman patted her monster as she took out a herb from her bag. When the two noticed Ye Qin and Wang Tao they greeted the two boys. "Welcome to the Medicine Peak, as you can see there's nothing special about this peak besides from nature. Feel free to join if you'd like, the next test will be held in a week from now." the old man said

Ye Qin nodded, "Thank you, the land around here is nice and relaxing. But may I ask why you are chopping wood?" he asked

"Ah, it's just a hobby. Whenever I'm bored I hack away at wood which will be used to make my next meal." the old man replied. "Hehe, don't lie grandpa, you lost a bet with my senior and he told you to chop wood for him." the young student sitting beside him exposed

"Ah, don't expose me! Look at this, an old man being treated this way by his only family. Sigh…" the old man rebuked

"..."

"..."

Wang Tao's mouth twitched as he watched the exchange between the old man and his granddaughter. The two brothers politely made their leave off the Medicine Peak after looking around for a bit before heading towards the next peak
