“This Craftsmanship Contest will whittle the contestant pool down to ten people by process of elimination. Then the top ten will undergo a ranking competition.”

“Alright, without further ado, let the first round of elimination matches begin. This is a simple identification round, where contestants must accurately identify craftsmanship materials by declaring their name and usage,” the middle-aged man said loudly.

He waved his hand, and countless craftsmanship materials shot like a meteor shower toward the participating craftsmen.

The materials were colorful and varied. They scattered automatically as they landed in front of the contestants.

“These are all materials related to the craftsmanship of Lv 5 weapons. Each contestant has in front of you a different material. Please present your answers in one minute,” the man said, then returned to his seat.

The craftsmen picked up their respective materials and started to inspect them.

Similarly, Su Mo picked up the material in front of him and studied it carefully.

It was an unknown object, about the size of a pebble. It was crimson but dull, and as hot as a soldering iron.

Su Mo was confused. He had never seen this material before and had no idea what it was for!

However, Ou Lianzi’s craftsmanship Legacy contained detailed explanations of countless craftsmanship materials. This unknown object had to be in there.

Su Mo closed his eyes and carefully scanned through the craftsmanship Legacy in his mind.

Soon, he opened his eyes and smiled.

The middle-aged man on the judges’ stand glanced at everyone and said loudly, “Alright, please start presenting your answers.”

He looked toward a tall young man in the upper left corner of the group and said, “Let’s start with you!”

The man nodded and lifted his hand.

He held a white column in his palm, around seven centimeters long and about the thickness of a thumb.

“This is the last segment of bone on a Lv 5 Demonic Monkey’s tail,” said the young man.

The middle-aged judge nodded and prompted, “And its usage in craftsmanship?”

“This…!”

The man stammered. He knew that this bone segment was a Lv 5 craftsmanship material, but since it was rarely used, he was not sure of its exact usage.

“You’re eliminated!” the judge announced after a few moments when he saw the young man still struggling to answer.

Then, the judge moved his hand and summoned the material back.

The tall young man looked very dejected. He had been studying craftsmanship for over twenty years and wanted to use this Craftsmanship Contest to achieve greatness. He hadn’t expected to be eliminated in the first round!

He sighed, left the venue and headed for the spectators stand.

“Next!”

The judge’s gaze fell to the next contestant and his eyes lit up, for the next contestant was a gorgeous girl with a stunning figure.

It was Ming Yu.

In her hands was a block of light gold metal that glittered brightly.

Ming Yu smiled lightly. “This is Fallen-dust Gold. It is used to neutralize the Ferric Sulphide’s violent properties.”

“You pass!” the judge announced, then signaled for Ming Yu to step aside and wait for the next round.

Ming Yu smiled and walked out gracefully.

She had expected to pass the first round. As an elder of Treasure Pavilion and an Upper Lv 5 craftsman, she had seen countless craftsmanship materials. This test was a piece of cake.

Next up was an old man who also passed the test.

One by one, each contestant presented their answers

Many passed, but more were eliminated.

Each material in this round was carefully selected. All were extremely rare and seldom used in common craftsmanship.

Therefore, many Medium Lv 5 craftsmen were eliminated.

Soon, it was Sikong Yan’s turn.

Sikong Yan held a blue crystal in his hand.

He said, “This is an Ancient Sea Stone, and it can only be found in the deep ocean. It has a very strong dark property and you can enhance this property when forging dark property weapons.”

He delivered a perfect answer and all the judges including the middle-aged judge secretly nodded their heads in approval.

“You pass!” the middle-aged judge said.

Sikong Yan smirked, glanced behind at Su Mo, and strode to the side.

The identification test continued.

Su Mo was the last to enter the tower, so he stood in the back.

He was not in a rush either, so it didn’t matter to him

After four hours, more than half of the thousands of craftsmen had been eliminated. Less than 3,000 had passed the first round.

Soon, only a handful of people remained.

It was Su Mo’s turn.

“Name? Usage?” the middle-aged man asked Su Mo curtly.

Su Mo held up the round crimson metal and said with a smile, “This is a Molten Ancient Rock that can only be found in the depths of lava in volcanos.”

“Yes, continue!” The judge nodded.

“It’s used to reinforce Fire-spirit Iron!” Su Mo said.

As soon as the middle-aged judge heard this, he shook his head lightly and said, “You’re eliminated!”

Su Mo was stunned and stared in shock.

Eliminated?

How could it be?

Ou Lianzi’s craftsmanship Legacy had detailed that this was its usage. How could he be wrong?

Ou Lianzi was an Imperial craftsman of the ancient times. Could he be wrong?

In the spectator stands, countless martial artists exclaimed inwardly, “Su Mo might be demonically talented, but he lacks craftsmanship skills!”

If he did not even know the usage of craftsmanship materials, he probably had little talent for craftsmanship!

Nie Yu was disdainful. “How dare Su Mo participate in this competition with his terrible skills? He is staining his name as a peerless genius!”

Sikong Yan shook his head imperceptibly. He had thought that Su Mo was going to make it to the end, and they could compete in craftsmanship. He had not expected Su Mo to be so incompetent to be eliminated in the first round.

The judge summoned the Molten Ancient Rock from Su Mo’s hand. He saw that Su Mo remained rooted to his spot and repeated, “You’re eliminated, please get out!”

Su Mo came back to his senses and asked with a frown, “My answer is absolutely correct. Why am I eliminated?”

“Absolutely correct?”

The judge scoffed. “I think many Lv 5 Craftsmen here know what Molten Ancient Rock is used for! How dare you say your answer is absolutely correct?!”
