Liu Yang's opponent was a rather handsome young man who wore refined white clothes, it seemed that he was some scholar. This person chose Liu Yang as their opponent because Liu Yang was the only one among the ten others who did not leave a strong impression on others. This scholar could not be more wrong in his life.
"Hello, my name is Duan Li, I am part of one of the branches of the Iron School if you do not know what the school is, I will tell you a bit about it. This school specializes in the art of forging, it may not be as famous and influential as the Builders Society, but it is still widely respected in the Nine Worlds"
The way Duan Li talked to Liu Yang was as if an intelligent nobleman spoke to a stupid bumpkin. Liu Yang did not care about that, for him, Duan Li was just another idiot wanting to appear, the best way to make this kind of person suffer some loss was to make them better.
Liu Yang used the Phantom Vision and found that Duan Li's class and innate talent were related to the forge, not surprisingly surprised, it would be an easier route to choose what you are most fit for.
"Hello, my name is Liu Yang, I am an apprentice in the art of forging, I don' t have the practical foundation, and as far as theory, I am an amateur yet" Liu Yang was not being humble in his words because it was really true.
Although Liu Yang has achieved the memories and experiences of Arthur Pendragon, it was only the first layer, yet had other layers to be unlocked. Liu Yang would never act arrogantly in terms of knowledge and experience because in his previous life there was a famous phrase that was: The more you study, the more idiot you feel.
That phrase was really true, because the more you study, the more doubts will arise in your mind. So there is no reason to be arrogant in terms of knowledge, or rather in relation to anything because there will always be someone better than you in the world. It's just that you have not found it yet.
People around looked at Liu Yang with a strange look, mostly Fang Luoyang. She knew what Liu Yang had written on the paper because it was she who evaluated him, she could not understand why he would say such things. It was good to be humble, but to sink like that was abnormal, at least for her.
(This guy is some idiot? Is he trying to play with us? It may be true the question of practice, but the theoretical one, are you trying to deceive who? You were approved by Fang Luoyang as one of the top ten, how would you be an amateur?) These were some of the questions that all participants had when listening to Liu Yang's words.
"Companion Liu Yang, you are quite funny, there is no need to shrink," Duan Li thought that Liu Yang was lowering himself to try to please him, this was the common thinking of those who came from influential powers. They always thought someone would be trying to win them a favor.
"Let's put this aside, and start evaluating the items?" Liu Yang did not want to continue this conversation because it was useless.
"Fine." Duan Li thought that Liu Yang did not want to talk about this things, so he did not mind starting to evaluate the items.
Duan Li took two swords, a cloth suit, a boot, and a necklace.
The first sword was fairly common, there was no glow on the blade, and the handle was rusty. The second sword was quite exquisite and beautiful, several jewels were cast in the cord, the blade was thin and shiny. The linen cloth was light and thin but tough. The boot was made of animal leather, heavy as if made of steel. The ring was beautiful, several colorful jewels were attached to various parts of the ring.
There was one thing in common between these five items, was that none of them had statistics, due to some failures during the forging process or were damaged during battles, these items only became decorative articles to improve the environment, but if they were repaired in the future, these items can be used again.
By the time Liu Yang looked at these items, he knew that this person named Duan Li received the greatest misfortune of his life up to this point.
Sword 1 - A powerless sword, just for decoration
Weight: 250 grams
Sword 2 - A beautiful but powerless sword, just for decoration
Weight: 200 grams
Shirt - A shirt made of thin and elegant materials, but sturdy. Use for decoration
Weight: 50 grams
Boot - A boot made from some animal hide. Use for decoration
Weight: 1000 grams
Ring - A ring made of fine and refined metal combined with several shiny jewels
Weight: 50 grams
...
An hour passed quickly.
"Everyone can stop. This time, you will not write on a paper, you will speak your answers about the analysis to your adversary and the judges. You can start, one pair at a time "
The first pair started to go to the instructors, each one described what they discovered by analyzing the items, their flaws, and the number of flaws in the item, some wanted to impress the judges, so they tried to speak the origin of that flaw, but did not work, some were wrong and were rebuked by the judges.
The time went by slowly, the turn of Liu Yang finally arrived.
Liu Yang was paying attention to what the other competitors were talking about, he wanted to know what the other competitors' analysis would look like and compare with his. Liu Yang realized that the things most of them talked about were practically shallow, some had a little deeper knowledge, but it was not likened to Liu Yang.
"What order will you choose?" Fang Luoyang asked Duan Li when he and Liu Yang came close to her.
"Ring, boot, sword 2, sword 1 and shirt" Duan Li confidently replied, he was trying to show his skills before the judges, especially to Fang Luoyang. Because Duan Li could not resist her beauty.
"You can begin" Fang Luoyang confirmed that Liu Yang and Duan Li were already prepared.
"The ring has a total of three faults, one in the middle of the ring, on the edge and finally inside the metal. The failure in the middle is due to some failure to melt the jewels with the ring, the edge failure may have been caused by some external factor and the fault inside the ring would be something inside but was destroyed "Duan Li said with extreme confidence.
"And you?" Fang Luoyang turned around and asked Liu Yang, the aura he was passing was totally different from Duan Li's aura.
Duan Li was upright and with hands behind his back, he exuded an aura of confidence, while Liu Yang was with hands behind his back, the body a little crooked and his gaze looked like someone dead or bored, he passed the image of some sloppy and unmotivated person. Liu Yang could not do anything about it because it was his habit in previous life.
The judges were looking at Liu Yang with strange eyes, to them, this was a lack of respect. The seven were influential people, but now some stranger was treating them randomly, which made them discontented. Fang Luoyang was thinking that Liu Yang would be using the friendship between his wife and Xiao Xi to be able to do this kind of thing.
"This ring has only one flaw, the flaw inside the ring, that flaw was created when the content that connected the center of the ring to the central jewel was worn. The imperfections at the edges of the ring would not affect its use, so it would not be considered a flaw"
Liu Yang's words were said neither slow nor fast, but he had plenty of confidence in them.
Several participants began to shake trying to contain the laughter, especially Duan Li, these people were thinking that Liu Yang was an idiot. Because if there were imperfections in any item, this would be considered a flaw, but now that Liu Yang said that this would not be considered flaws, what would then?
The other participants who were in the same group as Liu Yang understood his words, as people with more knowledge than others, they knew that imperfections are not considered flaws, but rather a mechanism of disguising the items. If an enemy sees a worn and totally scratched item, he will think it was some old, unused item.
The judges were looking at Liu Yang with shocked eyes because the aura he passed was totally different from the knowledge he demonstrated. They began in the phrase they always heard when meeting strangers people: Don't judge a book by its cover.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
