Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam? - Chapter 210

Chapter 210: Question of Strength

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Mjolnir had almost turned to dust in his Interspatial Ring. He had not gotten the chance to use it for a long time.

However, even if he skipped the forging step, his prototype would be sufficient to pass the test.

After all, the metal had been calcined to a very high purity. With the addition of those materials, it was enough to achieve a good defensive effect.

As for the energy path, he had already tested the machine’s data. Once the prototype was completed, everything would be in place.

Chi chi chi…

!!

When he got to the 13th minute, the casting machine in front of him made a sound. Then, the top cover of the mold opened up and released a white mist.

Soon, an armor prototype with clear edges and corners appeared before him.

Although there were still many steps before the armor prototype was completed, the judges could already gauge its defensive parameters. With that, the two elders could guess the quality of the prototype.

During the last two minutes, Wu Mo sat in his chair and waited quietly.

There were also supervising teachers in overalls who lifted the curtains to check on the students during this period.

When one of them saw Wu Mo sitting in the chair and doing nothing, he could not help but exclaim.

During the three-star ranking test, the blacksmiths from the noble academy were obviously flustered and sweating.

Only a few of them were still strolling around with confidence on their faces.

Wu Mo was the first one to rest in his chair.

The two of them stared at each other, and the atmosphere was a little awkward. It did not end until the supervisor left.

Ding ding ding!

The 15-minute time limit was soon up, and as the invigilators gazed at them, the dozen or so young blacksmiths took their prototypes and walked toward the judging platform.

In contrast to the cheerful atmosphere from before, the expressions of a few students at this moment seemed to be lacking in confidence.

They seemed to be worried that the prototype they had cast might not even reach the lowest standard in some aspects.

However, a majority of them still had relaxed expressions on their faces. After all, they had already lived in the academy for three years. As long as they had some talent, it would not be too difficult for them to become a four-star blacksmith before the age of twenty.

Moreover, they were studying at an elite academy, and everyone enjoyed the best teaching.

As for Wu Mo, before entering the forging space, he had only studied the most basic of theoretical knowledge. It was only after he entered the Divine Arms Academy that he officially stepped into the forging space.

Even so, Wu Mo still became a four-star blacksmith in his second year.

Of course, there were also geniuses in the field of forging, but more often than not, they had to work hard.

After collecting his thoughts, Wu Mo stood quietly in the line.

Beep beep beep.

The testing equipment on the judging table made a sound, and it was clear that the analysis was done.

The young man who was the first to be assessed was a little nervous. Although he felt that he had done his best, he was still worried that there would be problems with his results.

At this moment, the people behind him immediately stuck their heads out to take a peek. They immediately discovered that several related data were listed on the testing machine.

[Armor Prototype – Hardness: 71, Strength: 68, Degree of Energy Passage: 74

[Overall Score: 72]

Looking at the data on the machine screen, Elder Ai Bo nodded and said with a kind expression, “You passed. Next.”

In this ranking test, as long as one’s overall score exceeded 60, it would be considered a pass.

Soon, the second person was assessed. His armor prototype had a smooth surface and an acceptable overall shape. However, Wu Mo could clearly see that the prototype he was holding had a flaw.

It was relatively less resilient.

Although it was good in terms of hardness, it was too brittle. If it was hit by a violent impact, it would likely break.

Soon, the results of the test were out.

[Armor Prototype – Hardness: 79, Strength: 55, Degree of Energy Passage: 74

[Overall Score: 62]

With a score of 62 points, this blacksmith almost passed the three-star ranking test in the United States.

The latter’s face turned pale when he saw his results. He was obviously shocked.

He had already become a three-star blacksmith a few months ago, but he had slacked off after graduating and had not trained for half a month.

In the field of forging, if one did not advance, one would fall behind.

As a result of not training for half a month, he became unfamiliar with certain forging techniques, which almost led him to fail the three-star test.

If he failed, his blacksmith certificate would be updated, and he would not be able to take the test again for a month.

With lingering fear in his heart, the slightly plump young man immediately left and waited for the four-star test.

Sadly, the person behind him was not as lucky as him because the prototype he forged did not pass the standard in any dimension, and his final score was only over 50 points.

He was stripped of his status as a three-star blacksmith and dropped back to two stars.

On top of that, he would not be able to take the exam again until the next month.

Seeing the latter leave the testing area dejectedly, the other blacksmiths from the same school felt sorry for him.

At the same time, some of the less capable people began to pray in their hearts, hoping that they would pass the test smoothly.

Beep beep beep. [Test completed.

[Armor Prototype – Hardness: 85, Strength: 73, Degree of Energy Passage: 81

[Overall Score: 79]

The measuring machine rang again, and the data made the people around happy.

This score was “good” when compared with the others. This student was obviously much more outstanding.

“As expected of Jiang Zhou. He actually managed to score close to 80 points.”

“Brother Jiang will definitely get the highest score on the test. He’s awesome.”

Jiang Zhou’s results instantly aroused the admiration, as well as envy, of the other young men, and they all began to praise him.

“Hehe, I only displayed 60% of my strength. It’ll be better to go all out in the four-star test.” The young man in the dark green smithing suit waved his hand, looking relaxed and happy.

“Jiang Zhou is a role model for all of us. It would be great if I could reach such levels of strength one day.”

“Wasn’t someone very arrogant just now? I’d like to see how many points he can get this round,” a girl standing behind Wu Mo said in a sharp voice. Her strange tone obviously indicated that she was mocking Wu Mo.

Her words caused the surrounding students to immediately fix their gazes on Wu Mo.

Perhaps it was because the two elders were present, the latter did not continue speaking, but she still looked at Wu Mo with hostility and disgust.

Seeing the other party jabbering on and on and belittling him repeatedly, Wu Mo’s expression immediately turned cold.

He planned to teach those people who had been rude to him a lesson after this.

“Pass. Next,” Elder Ai Bo said in a calm tone as he looked at the data on the screen.

Lian Chun looked a little tired. He felt that these low-ranking tests were like playing house, and he was not interested in them at
