Chapter 987: Chapter 987 Forgemaster Guild
Qin Sisi felt a warm surge in her heart and gratefully said, "Thank you, Grandma."
Grandma Mad, with a hoarse but gentle voice, said, "This al has two anings; the first is to congratulate you for getting first place in your final exam, and the second is to wish you smooth sailing in your Forging Master exam."
Qin Sisi couldn’t help but feel her eyes sour. It had been tough at Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, and although Xiao ng and Yun Cheng took care of her, friends’ care and elders’ affection were not the sa.
Although she disliked Ya Ling very much, she often envied her for having a father who doted on her so much.
She and Grandma Mad were strangers, yet she was sincerely taken care of by her; every ti Sisi visited late for dinner, hot steaming dishes were just ready on the table.
Even if Grandma Mad didn’t show up, she knew for sure it was her doing. One or two days could be normal, but every day was sothing precious.
This kindness, Qin Sisi kept in her heart, determined to repay if the opportunity arose.
Grandma Mad invited Qin Sisi to sit down quickly and eat while the food was warm.
Qin Sisi picked up the utensils, but couldn’t help but ask softly, "Grandma, why are you so good to ?"
Grandma Mad unchangingly answered, "You have asked this question before. It’s not ti yet. When the ti cos, you will know naturally."
Undeterred, Qin Sisi asked again, "Then when will the ti co?"
Grandma Mad chuckled, her eyes showing a hint of teasing as she replied softly, "When you and Ye You get married."
Qin Sisi blushed, not expecting Grandma Mad to give such an answer; her and Ye You getting married would probably be a long, long ti away!
"Grandma is joking," Qin Sisi said, blushing.
Grandma Mad didn’t argue but walked away stooped, her words carrying aning, "Don’t force it; you will know when it’s ti to know."
Looking at Grandma Mad’s retreating figure, Qin Sisi was full of doubts, but since Grandma Mad refused to reveal more, she had no choice but to let it be.
After breakfast, Qin Sisi arrived at Tianjin Mountain, where Teacher Wuduo had just finished packing, and they descended the mountain together.
However, Teacher Wuduo’s treatnt was clearly much better than Qin Sisi’s; he had his own dedicated traveling carriage, the horses were large and well-proportioned, not as imposing as the Panhu family’s Green Scale Horse, but the clean and shiny fur also illustrated their extraordinary origin.
The carriage left Heavenly Magic God’s Castle, crossed several streets, and stopped in front of a majestic gate.
Qin Sisi followed Teacher Wuduo off the carriage, the black gate adorned with a huge forging furnace, and atop the door fra were these dragon-dancing words—Forgemaster Guild.
This was Qin Sisi’s first visit to the Forgemaster Guild, and she was awed by the impressive building; indeed, being a Forging Master seed very lucrative!
Yet, despite its grandeur, this street was spacious but not bustling; the neighboring buildings also had a grand and imposing style, clearly extraordinary, but there were no shops on the whole street.
Teacher Wuduo seed to notice Qin Sisi’s confusion and took the initiative to explain, "Many Forging Masters reside within the Forgemaster Guild; everyone needs to practice forging and exchange skills, so the address was purposely chosen in a quieter area. Most of the houses on this street are private residences of the wealthy, everyone enjoying the tranquility."
Qin Sisi nodded, understanding a bit more.
"Let’s go!" Teacher Wuduo said another word and stepped forward to lead the way; Qin Sisi quickly followed.
Wu Duo is a Fifth-level Forgemaster, which is quite a high rank. The guards at the door were already familiar with him and did not hinder his entry at all.
Wu Duo, leading Qin Sisi, entered the guest hall of the Forgemaster Guild, where three elderly n were sitting, drinking tea and chatting. When they saw Wu Duo enter, they nodded at each other, and then their gaze fell on Qin Sisi.
At the sa ti, Qin Sisi was also sizing them up. The three n appeared to be around fifty years old, with beards, and wearing similarly styled robes, albeit in different colors.
The man in the yellow robe spoke first, "Oh, Wu Duo, you’ve actually brought a delicate young girl here, can she really handle this?"
Wu Duo glared and retorted in a thick voice, "What? Is there a rule that won can’t be Forgemasters?"
The man in the green robe replied, "Of course, won can also be Forgemasters. There are a few female Forgemasters in the Demon Sacred Realm."
This statent, at first glance, seed to be in line with what Wu Duo was saying, but actually carried a sowhat mocking tone.
Although Forgemasters are rare, in the entire Demon Sacred Realm, there are still thousands altogether. Saying there are only a few won is an exaggeration, but indeed, the number of females in Forgemasters is much less than males, probably around one-tenth of the total.
Wu Duo looked increasingly displeased, and the man in the purple robe intervened to diate, "Alright, alright, both of you mind your words, we shouldn’t judge by appearances. Whether one can beco a Forgemaster depends on their ability."
The words of the man in the purple robe carried a dual aning, reminding his colleagues not to jump to conclusions prematurely, and also reminding Wu Duo that becoming a Forgemaster must rely on genuine skill.
Wu Duo snorted with a laugh, and said loudly, "Naturally."
Seeing Wu Duo so confident, the three exchanged glances, looking uncertain, their eyes sweeping over Qin Sisi, all silently speculating in their minds, could this young girl possess so exceptional quality?
The man in the purple robe led the way to the entrance of the examination room.
Wu Duo gave Qin Sisi a few more instructions before letting her follow the man in the purple robe inside. To avoid any suspicions, he could only wait outside.
Qin Sisi entered the room serving as the examination hall, which was quite empty, with only a long table and three chairs near the entrance and nothing else.
The man in the purple robe sat in the middle position. The n in the yellow and green robes also ca in and sat on either side of him, and the door to the room was closed.
All six eyes of the three n were fixed on Qin Sisi, and the man in the yellow robe said, "We three are your examiners, please introduce yourself first!"
Qin Sisi nodded and said, "My na is Qin Sisi, I am a student at the Heavenly Magic God’s Castle Heaven Academy."
After saying this, she stopped, having said all she intended to.
The man in the yellow robe waited a mont and not hearing anything more, asked curiously, "That’s it?"
"That’s it." Qin Sisi replied, her clear eyes looking at him emotionlessly.
The man in the yellow robe was taken aback for a mont, then further inquired, "Which family are you from?"
Qin Sisi’s eyes flickered slightly, and she responded, "I don’t have a family."
This answer surprised all three n, who exchanged looks again, and then the man in the yellow robe continued to announce the examination rules to Qin Sisi.
