Chapter 611: Everyone Was Stunned

Translator: Transn  Editor: Transn

The judge chuckled to himself.

Molten Ancient Rock was actually easier to differentiate than the materials other people had received. Su Mo had not only given the wrong answer but argued that his answer was correct!

It was absolutely ridiculous!

“No, my answer is definitely right!” Su Mo said unwaveringly. He believed what was written in Ou Lianzi’s craftsmanship Legacy to be true.

The craftsmanship of an Imperial Craftsman was unfathomably skilled. He would definitely not make such an elementary mistake.

The judge was speechless. He had arbitrated years of Craftsmanship Contests and never met such a shameless person.

He pondered and turned to those who had passed the test. “Anyone of you who knows the purpose of Molten Ancient Rock, please tell him the correct answer.”

The judge did not give the correct answer, but instead, let others tell him, so that Su Mo would be convinced.

“Su Mo, I’ll tell you the correct answer,” Sikong Yan chuckled. He stepped forward and said in a loud clear voice, “The real application of Molten Ancient Rock is to strengthen the power of fire property weapons.”

Sikong Yan had a Fire Spiritual Body and often refined fire property weapons. He used Molten Ancient Rock frequently, hence, he naturally understood its applications.

“Sikong Yan is right!”

“Yes, that’s what Molten Ancient Rock is used for.”

“Su Mo, just accept that you’re wrong. Stop importuning and making a fool of yourself!”

Many others spoke out, agreeing with Sikong Yan’s answer.

The judge laughed coldly. “Su Mo, did you hear that? If you continue to importune, there’ll be consequences.”

He knew who Su Mo was, but everyone was treated the same in the eyes of the Sky-sea Pavilion.

“Your answers are all wrong. Mine is the right one.” Su Mo once again said assuredly.

Everyone was exasperated and speechless, including Sikong Yan, participating craftsmen, and the audience in the spectators stand.

“Hahahaha!”

In the spectators stands, Nie Yu laughed out so loudly that his laughter could be heard throughout the entire arena.

He pointed at Su Mo and said with roaring laughter, “Su Mo, you’re so shameless! You answered wrong and were eliminated, but you won’t accept your failure and are still importuning. This is really an eye-opener for me! Hahaha!”

Nie Yu was full of sarcasm. He had never expected Su Mo to be such a sore loser!

Su Mo remained calm and ignored Nie Yu. He continued to look at the judge silently.

The judge’s face darkened and flashed with anger. He was fed up with Su Mo’s unreasonable attitude.

Just as he was about to speak, Su Mo spoke again, “It’s true that Molten Ancient Rock can strengthen the power of fire property weapons. However, it’s main application is to stabilize and reinforce the Fire-spirit Iron.”

He continued to speak plainly, “Fire-spirit Iron is the main material in forging fire property weapons. Isn’t it true that all fire property weapons with Molten Ancient Rock require Fire-spirit Iron?”

Everyone was shocked by Su Mo’s words. He was actually giving an accurate detailed description about how to forge weapons.

Indeed, all weapons that used Molten Ancient Rock needed to be forged with Fire-spirit Iron.

However, even so, it did not prove that Molten Ancient Rock’s application was to stabilize Fire-spirit Iron!

This reasoning was too far-fetched!

At this moment, the Horse-faced Elder who was sitting in the judge’s seat and pretending to be asleep, suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a pondering expression.

“Humph! Stop arguing!” The judge yelled coldly. “You’ve been eliminated. Please leave immediately!”

He would not be fooled by Su Mo’s words; he ordered him to leave.

Su Mo sighed. Although he knew he was right, there was nothing he could do if no one believed him.

“I didn’t expect the Sky-sea Pavilion’s craftsmen to be so low standard. In this case, I’m done with the Craftsmanship Contest!”

Su Mo shook his head and headed toward the gate.

He did not want to stay here. “What kind of Craftsmanship Contest is this? Even the judges’ levels are so low. What’s the point in participating?”

The judge smiled coldly and secretly mocked Su Mo’s lousy temperament. “He is actually mocking the skill of Sky-sea Pavilion’s craftsmen after being eliminated!”

This kind of temperament truly left him speechless.

At this moment, countless people were shaking their heads silently, condemning Su Mo’s actions.

So what if he was a genius?

He was wrong and yet, he could not admit his mistake!

Just as he was about to walk through the gate, an elderly voice was heard. “Su Mo passes round one.”

Everyone was shocked upon hearing this and turned toward the speaker.

Then, they were stunned even further.

The person who had spoken was the Horse-faced Elder, respected as the Upper King Craftsman.

Su Mo stopped and turned to look at the Horse-faced Elder.

“Elder Shan… this?” The judge looked confused.

Was Su Mo actually right?

Was everyone else wrong?

Otherwise, why would Elder Shan say that Su Mo had passed?

The Horse-faced Elder pondered slightly, then gazed out at everyone, saying, “Molten Ancient Rock indeed stabilizes and reinforces the Fire-spirit Iron.”

HUH!

Everyone stood agape. It really could stabilize and reinforce Fire-spirit Iron?

Their understanding was that Molten Ancient Rock could only strengthen the power of fire property weapons!

If anyone else had said this, no one would have believed him.

However, the Horse-faced Elder was a Upper King Craftsman. No one could challenge him!

“Um… Elder Shan, everyone knows that Molten Ancient Rock can only strengthen the power of fire property.”

The middle-aged judge looked extremely upset. As the arbitrator of this competition, he felt disgraced that his answer was being denied.

The Horse-faced Elder glanced at the judge. “Zhou, this is a misconception. It is normal to forge weapons according to the craft formulas and think that Molten Ancient Rock can only strengthen the power of the fire property. But you have never wondered why Molten Ancient Rock is always used together with Fire-spirit Iron.”

He sighed, then looked at Su Mo. “I never realized this either, but upon hearing what Su Mo said, I’ve also pondered upon it. Molten Ancient Rock is indeed used to stabilize and reinforce Fire-spirit Iron.”

The judge was completely shocked!

All the participating craftsmen were shocked!

The entire audience was shocked!

Su Mo was right, and everyone else was wrong. Even the judge was not as knowledgeable as Su Mo!
