What is meant by "harmonious fusion" is that the blacksmith and the metal they forge resonate with each other, entering a state of wondrous unity. In this state, masterpieces are often produced because the forged works contain the blacksmith's emotions and ideas.

Mu Chen didn't enter the forging room because even as the guild leader, he didn't have that authority. Forgers are not allowed to be disturbed during their level testing. Once interrupted, it could easily cause the forger to lose focus, resulting in a failed test and possibly even lasting shadows.

That's pretty interesting!

Mu Chen returned to the front desk and asked the staff, "Who is testing in Room 3"

The staff member quickly checked and said, "His name is Tang Wulin, he was brought here by Master Cen Yue. He's currently undergoing a test."

Meanwhile, he handed Mu Chen a copy of the table.

Hearing the name Cen Yue, Mu Chen suddenly smiled. "As for me, I was able to enter a state of fusion during the test. It turns out that it was Lao Cen who brought people in. No wonder. Eh, nine years old"

He looked at the staff in astonishment, "Are you sure your records are correct This blacksmith being tested is only nine years old"

The staff hurriedly said, "That's right, we were just wondering how a child so young could take the level test."

Mu Chen was stunned. Nine years old, that meant he was taking the first-level blacksmithing test

"Ding!" The soul-guidance communicator on his waist rang, Mu Chen took off the communicator and answered it.

"Daddy, I'm ready. Have you come yet I'm in Room 6."

I'll be there right away.

Although he was confused, his daughter was clearly more important. Mu Chen quickly walked towards room number six.

"Time's up!" the tester called out in a rather strange voice.

"Bang!" With the final blow, Tang Wulin retracted his twin hammers, two streaks of black light flashing as they vanished into the Silver Ring.

His chest rose and fell slightly, his breathing a little faster than before. His face was flushed, and there was a slight sheen of sweat on his forehead. But that was all.

Let me know if you'd like to translate anything else!

The forging room fell into a brief silence. The assessor's gaze fell on the silver, while Cen Yue's eyes were fixed on Tang Wulin's pupils.

From Tang Wulin's eyes, he seemed to see silver light flickering, the sheen of silver. Even though the forging was complete, in his world, there was still only that previous focus. This child, if he doesn't go down the wrong path in the future, he might just be an extraordinary being!

"The silver has been refined to over a hundred forges, its volume reduced by seven percent. The refining effect is approximately three times that of a hundred forge refinement." The assessor provided accurate data.

Such data, to a master-level blacksmith, might not be anything special. However, it appearing on a child of only nine years old, whose body is still growing, is truly incredible.

"Passed the assessment." The assessor looked at Cen Yue.

Let me know if you'd like me to translate any other text!

Cen Yue wryly smiled and said, "Mang must have done this on purpose."

“This child, a disciple of Mang” The examiner exclaimed in surprise.

Cen Yue nodded slightly, “It’s really unimaginable, but I have to, this child can be assessed at level two.”

The examiner looked at Tang Wulin, "Son, besides metal refining, what else can you do"

Tang Wulin only now fully recovered from the forging state. The feeling just now was truly exhilarating, the only flaw being that the Qianjin tungsten steel hammer was a bit light, and the forging ended too early. In his current state, as long as he had enough time, he was absolutely confident in completing the thousand forgings.

"I can handle most small and medium-sized parts." Tang Wulin said seriously.

This is a test.

This time, Cen Yue wasn't surprised. After all, Tang Wulin had passed by before, and Mang thought he could take on the job alone.

"Just forge a medium-sized component," the evaluator said in a low voice. "If you succeed, you will be directly assessed as Tier 2."

Second-tier Blacksmith, required to be able to forge medium-sized parts independently and to refine rare metals through a hundredfold forging process.

Tang Wulin's recent refining was undoubtedly already very good, he just needed to complete the forging of the parts.

>

"Yes!" Tang Wulin replied, immediately starting to forge.

The thousand-forged tungsten steel hammer reappeared, and the rhythmic pounding sound echoed once more.

The assessor wanted to call out to him, telling him that ordinary metal would suffice for this assessment. However, Cen Yue stopped him with a look. He wanted to see just how far this nine-year-old child could go.

Once again, he struck the silver gong. Tang Wulin's heart brimmed with joy, a genuine feeling that transported him back to being surrounded by his friends.

The deep, resonant chime answered each of his blows, and he struck with increasing speed. He didn't hesitate, thinking nothing at all as the solid block of silver began to transform.

With every hammer strike, it rose higher. Tang Wulin increased his force. The silver gradually deformed, and slowly, a rounded, medium-sized part began to take shape.

There were no mistakes, it was a completely smooth and natural feeling, as if every hammer blow landed exactly where it should. In Cen Yue's eyes, this was simply textbook forging!

This child's basic skills are so solid that even many apprentices who have been learning blacksmithing for over eight years at the age of eighteen or nineteen can't compare.

There are no fancy moves, just pure and simple training, which gives one a feeling of extraordinary purity.

Generally, small parts are applied to the connection points of mechs, while medium-sized parts are already integrated into the mech itself.

What Tang Wulin crafted was a semi-circular part, an important component within the mecha's knee joint. Joint protection parts are most prone to wear and tear, but joints are also the most suitable place to install soul conductor arrays. Silver is ideal for conducting soul power, making it perfect for crafting these joint components. Tang Wulin clearly took this into consideration.

Another long time had passed. When the perfectly flawless, round piece finally appeared before Cen Yue and the assessor, the two fell even more silent than before.

"Two masters, do you think I passed" Tang Wulin was very satisfied with this piece of work. In fact, this was his first time using silver to forge parts. The only thing he felt was lacking was that this piece wasn't a thousand forged. And in reality, he was truly confident in completing a thousand forgings.

After his last forging of the silver, he found that his understanding of blacksmithing had noticeably risen to a new level. Forging the silver once again felt truly wonderful.s left foot heavily on the ground, flashed aside and appeared in front of Li Mengyang in an instant.
