Chapter 556– Lan Xuanyu’s Plan
But what if the people on his warship were his own people? What if they were his classmates? Putting aside the fact that these students’ individual abilities far surpassed ordinary people, just the relationship between them was extraordinary! Right now, the first years were like a whole, this sort of team had become Shrek Academy’s experimental class. Even if they were going to pilot a small-size warship in the future, they would still have relatively strong combat power. This was what the academy wanted.
How could a small-size warship be strong? This was not something he needed to consider. If he and his classmates were strong enough, the academy and Tang Sect would definitely resolve these problems for them.
Hence, Lan Xuanyu had a new idea.
A One-Word Battle Armor could be forged using an soul array engraved from ordinary rare metals. It wasn’t too difficult to make, but Two-Word Battle Armors were different. Two-Word Battle Armors had to be fused into the user’s body. Hence, if a One-Word Battle Armor was ordinary, then everything would have to be redone and adapted for the Two-Word Battle Armor.
Hence, to Shrek Academy’s students, they had to use Thousand Refined metals to make their own One-Word Battle Armor. Only then could they ensure that their One-Word Battle Armor would be able to evolve into a Two-Word Battle Armor in the future and not be remade. This would save resources and time.
Thousand Refined metals were not only expensive, but they were also very rare. The price in the academy was a small percentage of the real price in the outside world, so it was naturally best to buy them in the academy. However, Thousand Refined metals were still nonetheless rare items! Not to mention first-grade Thousand Refined metals. The Blacksmith Society had always had the least number of people, so the number of students that could be trained was naturally very small. Furthermore, everyone had to cultivate and work hard to improve themselves, so who would have more time to forge?
Hence, only a few people in the Outer Court were destined to be able to use first-grade Thousand Refined metals for making their Battle Armor.
Lan Xuanyu even heard that there were seniors who had remade their entire set of Battle Armor after entering the Inner Court to satisfy their pursuit of strength in their Battle Armor.
First-grade Thousand Refinements was the best for a One-Word Battle Armor. How could he strengthen their cohesion? How could he strengthen his classmates’ recognition of him? Lan Xuanyu thought of a good idea, and that was… owing him money!
That’s right, owing him money!
The rare metals he had obtained during the final exam were enough to make One-Word Battle Armors for the entire first year. Furthermore, and this under the premise of only using first-grade Thousand Refined rare metals.
But Lan Xuanyu wasn’t a charitable person, so he couldn’t possibly give these to his classmates. Not only would they not be grateful if they didn’t work hard for it, but they would also become lazy. So, he thought of a plan. He would provide the first-grade Thousand Refined metals to everyone, but they would have to buy them at the school’s market price. Of course, he wouldn’t accept money, only emblems. What would happen if they didn’t have enough emblems ? He would have them buy on credit! They could pay him back slowly.
When everyone would owe him emblems, cough cough, would there ever be a second voice among the first years ?
This was an outright conspiracy that the students had no way of rejecting. Of course, no one would reject such a good thing anyway.
However, there was a prerequisite for this. The prerequisite was that his success rate of first-grade Thousand Refining had to be higher. Otherwise, how could he forge so many first-grade Thousand Refined metals for everyone to make their Battle Armor!
Hence, he had been practicing hard recently.
The benefit of his spiritual power was also reflected in his forging. His strong spiritual power allowed him to clearly feel the changes in the metal during the forging process. Also, Lan Xuanyu discovered through experiments that when he fused his bloodline power into the forging process, not only would the success rate of his first-grade Thousand Refining be higher, but the metal that was forged would also have a bit of his own bloodline aura. This way, the quality of the first-grade Thousand Refined metal would be higher.
Lan Xuanyu’s experiment was first used on Liu Feng. He forged a first-grade Thousand Refined metal with his bloodline power and made Liu Feng make a piece of Battle Armor.
After trying it out, Liu Feng told him that because of his bloodline aura, this Battle Armor directly enhanced Liu Feng’s body, not counting the enhancement from the Battle Armor itself. He could even feel the sentience of his Battle Armor.
Especially since Liu Feng had the White Dragon King bloodline. Under the enhancement of Lan Xuanyu’s bloodline aura, the effect was extremely good.
This discovery strengthened Lan Xuanyu’s conviction, especially when his Dragon God bloodline had improved after this trip to the Elven Planet.
Of course, it would take a very long time for him to forge so many first-grade Thousand Refined metals. He planned to use the next year or even until he graduated from his second year.
Forging was dull, but for a blacksmith who had comprehended the beauty of forging, it wasn’t that dull.
Just like Lan Xuanyu, he was now able to clearly feel the changes in the metal’s emotions during the forging process. It was as if he was communicating with the metal and this feeling made him feel extremely comfortable and enjoyable.
Many times, when he walked out of the Blacksmith Society, the sky outside was already dark and it was already night time. The canteen was closed.
He had no choice but to drink some of Sea God Lake’s water with some Endless Life Fruits to replenish the energy he needed.
Then, he would go back to meditate.
Currently, Lan Xuanyu’s success rate of first-grade Thousand Refining was close to 20%. He decided to announce this matter to his classmates as soon as possible so that they could save as much time as possible and not think too much about the issue of their Battle Armor and focus on increasing their cultivation. He wanted them to break through to the next level as soon as possible and wait for the entire first year to fuse with the Spirit Soul they obtained from the Elven Planet. Lan Xuanyu believed that the first year would definitely undergo a transformation. At that time, they might really have the strength to challenge the other years in the Outer Court.
After resting for the past few days, Lan Xuanyu felt that it was time to consume the Emperor Fruits. Without counting the two he could still eat, he had nine left.
He had also carefully considered how to distribute the remaining nine Emperor Fruits. Bai Xiuxiu, Lan Mengqin, Liu Feng, Qian Lei, Tang Yuge, and Yuanen Huihui each had one. The effect of eating the first fruit was the best, and Lan Xuanyu still had to try the other two.
There were still three left. Should he give these three to the other students? He had thought about this question carefully. He would not give them, not even to his teammates.
The reason was very simple. Uneven distribution was more worrying than not having enough. Furthermore, consuming an Emperor Fruit required a long period of cultivation in Sea God Lake. It was unknown how long this period of time would take, but it would definitely consume quite a number of emblems and ordinary students would not be able to afford it.
What about the remaining three Emperor Fruits? Simple, he would sell them to the academy.
Lan Xuanyu believed that the academy would definitely not reject such a treasure and would even offer a high price.
The academy was rich in resources, and if the Outer Court’s Exchange Center could exchange for so many good things, then the Inner Court would definitely have even more good stuff ! This was the accumulation of tens of thousands of years. Therefore, there was definitely no harm in accumulating more emblems. It was just that he didn’t know how much money the Emperor Fruits could be sold in the academy, so he would need to go back and find out.
Lan Xuanyu already had an idea. This matter had to be done in order and not to be messed up. He had to sell some first before letting everyone consume them. The rarer something is, the more precious it is. If the academy finds out that he has so many Emperor Fruits, it might not be worth much.
Three. Should I auction one off at the auction to exchange for some gold coins? It would probably bring an astronomical amount of gold coins.
The gains from this trip to the planet were simply too great!
The chaotic thoughts in his mind gradually dissipated and Lan Xuanyu finally entered a state of meditation.
The next morning, when Lan Xuanyu arrived in class in high spirits, he realized that most of his classmates had already recovered, with only Ding Zhuohan looking listless. Yesterday’s experience was indeed a little cruel to him.
“Old Ding, what did you eat this morning?” Bing Tianliang smiled as he walked over to Ding Zhuohan and patted his shoulder.
Ding Zhuohan’s face turned pale. The thought of eating reminded him of his vomit yesterday. In fact, he hadn’t eaten anything since last night!
“Go away!”
