Chapter 354 The Ability To Plan As A Whole

As the Military Fire burned, pieces of equipment were born in Ou Yangming’s hands one after another.

He was more than twice as fast as he was before, but the credit was not fully his. The result was only possible with help from over ten Advanced Blacksmiths.

When Ou Yangming smithed the pieces of equipment, he assigned different tasks for the blacksmiths. Once they were done with their tasks, they would either pass the equipment to another blacksmith for further processing or directly let Ou Yangming do the finishing touches.

Although the Advanced Blacksmiths had different tasks, they were adept at them. In a way, in those aspects alone, even Superior Blacksmiths might not necessarily be better than them.

Under the reasonable arrangements, the Advanced Blacksmiths portrayed their strengths wonderfully. At the same time, they also sensed the aura released by Ou Yangming through his peculiar Military Fire, so they all gained something.

When the last piece of equipment was finished, Ou Yangming and the Advanced Blacksmiths sighed breaths of relief. They looked at each other and were somehow connected on a deep level.

Later on, someone took the lead and bowed at Ou Yangming. “Thanks for the pointers, Master Ou.”

Including Chen Yihe, over ten Advanced Blacksmiths who used the casting tables at the center of the square saluted Ou Yangming and uttered, “Thanks for the pointers, Master Ou.”

All of a sudden, several Intermediate Blacksmiths from the crowd bowed and shouted as well, “Thanks for the pointers, Master Ou.”

The sentence seemed to carry endless magic, such that the other blacksmiths present somehow expressed at the same time, “Thanks for the pointers, Master Ou.”

Among them, most were Rudimentary Blacksmiths and Intermediate Blacksmiths, but there were also many ordinary apprentices, who were not qualified to become blacksmiths yet. Even so, everyone thanked Ou Yangming sincerely.

An Advanced Blacksmith was at the top of the industry. Under normal circumstances, they would not smith in public and would not simply perform their best skills.

Despite that, due to Ou Yangming, they had not only smithed in public but had also displayed their finest techniques without any reservations.

Those who were determined to be successful blacksmiths would benefit greatly from this event. Even if they were to watch from afar, they would be enlightened in terms of smithing art.

After all, one rarely had the opportunity to observe an expert’s smithing work. Given that many Advanced Blacksmiths were gathered here, it would be extremely advantageous for the spectators. In fact, from the crowd’s perspective, Chen Yihe and the other Advanced Blacksmiths’ smithing methods were more useful than that of Superior Blacksmiths’.

As for Chen Yihe and his peers, they gained much more than they imagined.

Throughout the event, they sensed the wonderful effects of Ou Yangming’s Military Fire. On top of that, they made the most of observing each other too.

If some of them managed to become Superior Blacksmiths in the future, the grand event would certainly be one of the main factors. “Everyone, you’re being too polite.” Ou Yangming looked around and shook his head and sighed as he thought, ‘I didn’t intend to guide anyone at all; I simply wanted to complete the gifts.’

Who knew, Xing Zhengyang and the other people offered their help. Ou Yangming figured that he should not refuse help, hence he utilized their abilities according to his observation. In the end, the outcome turned out to be out of his expectations.

“Master Ou, I benefited a lot today, and I’ll go back now to digest what I learned,” Xing Zhengyang stated seriously and added after a short pause, “I’ll do my best if you need my help in the future; I’ll repay your kindness today.”

The other blacksmiths saluted Ou Yangming solemnly as well and bid their farewells.

Including Chen Yihe and Feng Guangyuan, the blacksmiths needed to convert their gains for their use because the event was incredibly meaningful for them. As such, Ou Yangming was soon left with the pieces of equipment as the Advanced Blacksmiths had left.

Following that, two elders walked out from the crowd. They were Wu Hongxi and Jin Shengjie.

Indescribable looks of lament were seen on their faces, and they cast complicated looks at Ou Yangming.

They knew while Ou Yangming had not earned the Superior title, the other blacksmiths would collectively regard him as the number one blacksmith, which was very well-deserved.

In actual fact, Ou Yangming had already deserved it when he smithed magic tools on his own.

Nevertheless, the young fellow had only displayed his individual skills back then. This time, he exhibited his skills and also showed the ability to plan as a whole. It was evident that the blacksmiths were sincerely convinced too.

The two Superior Blacksmiths could not understand it.

Judging from Ou Yangming’s age, even if he started learning in his mother’s womb, he would not have carried out everything so perfectly.

After all, experience was the most important component of the superb ability to plan as a whole. In this case, the Superior Blacksmiths could not tell where Ou Yangming gained his experience from.

“Master Ou, how did you do it?” Jin Shengjie asked in a deep voice.

“What?” Ou Yangming was shocked.

Jin Shengjie stroked his beard and questioned, “You made well-thought-out arrangements and considered the various needs and their abilities. How did you make everyone work together so flawlessly?” Ou Yangming looked at him in confusion. “Master Ou, didn’t you just say it yourself? Why are you still asking me?” “What did I say?” Jin Shengjie was baffled.

“Made well-thought-out arrangements and considered the various needs and their abilities to make everyone work together flawlessly,” Ou Yangming noted and expressed honestly, “That’s what I did.”

Jin Shengjie was startled for some time. When he exchanged glances with Wu Hongxi, they both had a strange look on their faces.

Wu Hongxi cleared his throat and said, “Brother Jin was asking how you were able to do that.”

Everyone else thought Ou Yangming was only so confident because he was well-experienced, but it turned out that the young fellow was only doing things according to his heart.

The two elders looked at each other and sighed.

‘Perhaps the phrase ‘the young will be formidable in the future’ refers to a freak like him.’

At the spur of the moment, a loud laugh was heard from the crowd. Powerhouses of different physiques and forms walked out from different directions. They approached Ou Yangming and greeted him with smiles.

Jin Shengjie and the other people were taken aback when they recognized who the powerhouses were.

During the Myriad Treasure Meet, Ou Yangming performed his martial prowess to help many powerhouses enter the Extreme Grade, and the incident became known to everyone in the capital.

Jin Shengjie and Wu Hongxi, who were from the capital, were familiar with the successful powerhouses at the peak of Yang Grade. At the very least, they had seen the powerhouses several times. After recognizing the first person, they naturally identified the second, the third, and so on.

They were rather shocked when they saw the 26 newly-advanced Supreme Great Ancestors.

Ou Yangming nodded at them and said, “Master Jin, Master Wu, I have something I’d like to discuss with them. May I?”

Jin Shengjie hesitated and reminded the young fellow, “Master Ou, no matter what you’re going to do, please think thrice.”

He had previously addressed Ou Yangming as if they had the same seniority, but deep down he more or less prided himself as an elder. Nonetheless, after Ou Yangming smithed magic tools and pulled off quite a show today, Jin Shengjie’s attitude changed drastically.

Wu Hongxi nodded in agreement. “Master Ou, there’s always room for discussion. You mustn’t act willfully!”

Ou Yangming responded to the Superior Blacksmiths and thought, ‘They’re top-notch figures indeed. I’m sure they received the news.’

He later looked at the Supreme Great Ancestors who greeted him and noticed gratitude, shrewdness, and doubt from their eyes.

At that moment, Ou Yangming felt so indignant that he could not put his emotions into words.

The imperial family’s power had been inherited for thousands of years, which was why it was deeply rooted in everyone’s heart. When His Majesty gave his decree, very few people had the guts to disobey him.

Ou Yangming could tell from the Supreme Great Ancestors’ expressions that they were still hesitant. Though he was the one who guided them to the Extreme Grade, they dared not defy the imperial family’s will.

When he turned to look at the pieces of equipment on the casting table, he somehow felt that it would not be easy for him to achieve his goal.

“Alright, Master Ou is going to do something important, so leave if you’re unrelated to it!” Jin Shengjie roared out of the blue. His voice spread far and wide, thus the blacksmiths and ordinary spectators were forced to leave. Nobody wanted to offend Jin Shengjie, but they were even more unwilling to offend Ou Yangming. Besides, seeing as many Supreme Great Ancestors gathered, a sensible person would know that one could not simply be involved in the matter. Jin Shengjie looked deeply at Ou Yangming and sighed before he left with Wu Hongxi.

With that, Ou Yangming and the 26 Supreme Great Ancestors were the only ones left in the square.

Ou Yangming glanced at the people and remarked, “Brother Woo, not everyone is here

yet.”

Woo Lejia was stunned. “They’re all here, aren’t they?”

“There were other people after you!” Ou Yangming laughed.

When Woo Lejia came to a sudden realization, he could not help but laugh. “Brother Ou, they’re too embarrassed to come because they failed to become Supreme Great Ancestors.”

Ou Yangming commented, “They failed to advance, but the other people from their clans have hope.”

Woo Lejia’s eyelids twitched. He pondered for a while before he replied to the young fellow, “Okay, I’ll invite them over by using your name.”

Ou Yangming nodded as he was pleased, whereas the newly-advanced Supreme Great Ancestors exchanged glances because they could sense an upcoming storm.
