Translator: 549690339
Being able to refine half-step Universe-level battle puppets and combat weapons is a level of crafting that sits at the top even within the divine realm.
Among the core elders of the Armament Alliance, only a few can achieve this.
The key is that Wu Jin has long been in the divine realm, and his insight and methods are probably stronger than several of the Armament Alliance’s core elders.
“I do have some confidence in competing against Wu Jin,” said Jiang Qin, his hair and beard both white. “However, the outcome is uncertain.”
The other four core elders looked at each other and shook their heads slightly.
They couldn’t guarantee victory in this battle.
If they lost this match, and with the addition of Xun Chu Yun, an absolute powerhouse on the other side, if the opposition won two out of three matches, there would be no need for a third.
Regarding a powerhouse like Xun Chu Yun, the core elders had already subconsciously conceded one match.
“Xun Chu Yun, Wu Jin, and if another one joins…” Yu Zhen shook his head with a worried look on his face.
This is Heavenly Secret City, the holy land for weapon refinement in the divine realm.
In such a place, there are plenty of people whose strength is not inferior to that of several core elders of the Armament Alliance.
Not to mention those well-known refining experts.=
“I do know Master Mingtong,” announced from outside the pavilion Great Venerable Muyue’s voice.
Great Venerable Muyue, who walked in slowly, looked at Han Muye and nodded: “I can help you ask her to see if she is willing to help.”
Her words brightened the eyes of all five core elders.
They exchanged glances, and Shi Zhennan stood up: “Is she the only female cultivator among the twelve top divine masters of Heavenly Secret City, Master Mingtong?”
“She single-handedly repaired three Universe-level battle puppets, earning her the respect even of the seven families of the divine realm.”
Being able to repair Universe-level battle puppets is indeed extraordinary.
Nowadays, in the Galaxy Universe, not many people can refine Universe-level battle puppets and combat weapons; just being able to repair them places one among the elite.
Such individuals are respected by all sides.
Who doesn’t have one or two pieces of black armor that need repairing?
“If Master Mingtong is truly willing to help, defeating Master Wu Jin will not be a problem,” said Du Yu, his complexion flushed red and wearing a long fiery-red robe, as he spoke softly.
“Of course, each one of the twelve divine masters in Heavenly Secret City can suppress all opposition,” chuckled Wan Yousheng with a trace of joy on his face.
If this refining expert joins them, the odds of the Armament Alliance’s victory will greatly increase.
“Then we will trouble the Great Venerable,” said Han Muye, nodding, seeing that all the core elders hoped for Master Mingtong’s help, and looking at Great Venerable Muyue.
Great Venerable Muyue’s expression was calm as she spoke softly, “I’ll go see Master Mingtong right away.”
“It’s been a long time since I’ve seen Mingtong,” she mused.
Observing Great Venerable Muyue’s expression, Han Muye’s mouth curved into a smile: “Are you well-acquainted with Master Mingtong, Great Venerable?”
Great Venerable Muyue stiffened slightly and turned to leave.
“Very well-acquainted.”
All around Heavenly Secret City, it was being whispered that the Armament Alliance was going to have a bet duel with the Xun Family, and the stakes were quite high.
This bet duel naturally sparked interest from all parties.
However, no one was optimistic about the Armament Alliance’s chance of winning.
The Xun Family’s known partic.i.p.ants in this bet duel included Divine-level Master Xun Chu Yun. As for Wu Jin, Sun Yang, and several others who made contact with the Xun Family, their partic.i.p.ation had not been confirmed.
But with this lineup, whichever member joined, the Xun Family would be in an invincible position.
On the other hand, the core elders of the Armament Alliance had also visited several city masters but were refused.
Who would offend the Xun Family for the sake of the Armament Alliance? Did they no longer want to be part of Heavenly Secret City?
This was no secret, and everyone was curious about who the Armament Alliance would send to the bet duel without any support.
There are many in the city who could surpa.s.s the weapon refining methods of the five core elders.
As the days went by, the atmosphere of the bet duel grew more intense.
Many people came from other parts of the divine realm to Heavenly Secret City to witness this millennially rare bet duel.
Regardless, it’s rare in the divine realm for someone to dare challenge the power of the seven families.
This time, it remains to be seen how a strong member from among the seven families crushes the Armament Alliance.
Those making a fuss outside the divine realm often don’t know their own limits, do they?
Great Venerable Muyue had not returned, but she did send a discreet communication that Master Mingtong had agreed to help, as long as it did not involve facing Xun Chu Yun.
This was the only good news for the Armament Alliance.
Qian Zhan, however, was unconcerned, saying it wouldn’t matter if they lost the Heavenly Frost Hammer because he couldn’t activate the power within it anyway.
The five core elders were anxious.
For them, this bet duel was important not only for the Heavenly Frost Hammer but also for the Armament Alliance’s reputation.
With nothing pressing, Han Muye sought out Qian Zhan and together, they strolled to the trading area.
Indeed, there were many treasures in the trading area, and he acquired quite a few Primordial Grade Spiritual Materials and components he needed.
When he had time, he would a.s.semble these components.
“Han, Master Han,” someone called from behind him at a shopfront.
Turning around, he saw Qiao Da standing there with a restrained expression.
Following Qiao Da, there was a young man in a blue-grey robe, not very old.
The young man had a stern countenance and was wearing a Divine Grade Badge on his chest.
In his eyes, layers of halos flickered, with the pa.s.sing of each halo, as if the cosmos were revolving within them.
“Is this who you spoke of—the nineteenth core elder of the Armament Alliance who has stirred a great wave of weapon refinement beyond the divine realm, Master Han?”
The young man looked at Han Muye, his expression shifting.
A mix of surprise and awe appeared on his face as he slightly bowed his head and asked softly, “Could it be, Mr. Han?”
