Hearing Xu Ning's words, or questioning, Ye Zan couldn't help but smile while standing in front.
In fact, this kind of problem is very common even in the world of science and technology. After a new thing appears, it will always be rejected or even suppressed by those who adhere to tradition.
For example, in the world of technology, the emergence of telephones, from the initial wired telephone to the later development of smart terminals, has never been without various controversies.
At first, some people lamented the demise of traditional letters, saying that young people no longer even know how to write letters. Later, they said that they were arrogant and that the entire society had become indifferent.
For example, the emergence of online novels has made some traditional writers think that literature is blasphemed and makes literature no longer noble.
The emergence of industrial production made craftsmen think that handicrafts were blasphemed. Later, handmade products became a symbol of high-end. Isn't this a manifestation of this idea
However, there is always nothing to argue about this kind of topic, because it is impossible to argue whether it is right or wrong.
Nothing in the world is perfect. Both parties in the argument can always find a lot of shortcomings in the other party and a lot of advantages in themselves.
However, since the other party asked, Ye Zan had no choice but to answer. After all, Xu Ning's question must have represented a considerable number of weapon refiners.
"Many masters are overly worried. I heard that there are printing offices in the world. Most of the craftsmen who carve boards are illiterate and just follow the shapes of the characters to carve. But is it possible that what they do is blaspheming the books? Without them, how could those books be widely circulated?”
What Ye Zan said was exactly what he saw in the Tang Dynasty. In this secular world, the literacy rate was very low, so much so that many people in jobs that dealt with writing, such as printing, were not literate at all.
Ye Zan took this example, which is very suitable for the matter of refining weapons. The design of magical weapons is like books, and the workers who refine weapons are like workers who carve boards. The workers just carved the boards correctly, but do you know what is written on them is important
From the perspective of the weapon masters, it can be understood as emphasizing the importance of the design of the magic weapon, or it can simply emphasize the importance of these masters. Although what is being discussed now, what these weapon refining workers are doing is Ye Zan's magical weapon design and has nothing to do with them.
However, Xu Ning did not accept this trick. He snorted coldly and said proudly: "How can the art of weapon refining be compared with worldly things? Does Elder Ye look down on the art of weapon refining?"
Ah! Ye Zan understood this time that this guy was deliberately looking for trouble.
After Mo Ru came back from the Golden Light Sect, he mentioned to Ye Zan and the others the matter of Ziyang Zhenjun's obstruction. He thought that this time the Ziyang Sect sent an envoy to congratulate him, and the original matter would be over. Unexpectedly, the Ziyang Sect is waiting here. This is to provoke a conflict between the entire group of weapon refiners and the Yuqing Sect.
Thinking of this, Ye Zan was naturally not polite, his face sank slightly, and he said with a sneer: "Master Xu, you keep talking about the art of weapon refining, and you want to represent all the weapon refiners in the Shenhua Domain. You must be the number one weapon refiner in the world. Man, that's really disrespectful."
As he spoke, Ye Zan cupped his fists and bowed firmly to Xu Ning.
If there was no one in front, Xu Ning would have accepted Ye Zan's salute. But coupled with Ye Zan's previous words, Xu Ning would not dare to accept this gift, otherwise it would be equivalent to agreeing with Ye Zan's words, and he really considered himself to be the number one weapon refiner in the world of Shenhua Domain.
Not to mention being the number one weapon refiner in the world, Xu Ning is just a master of weapon refiners. Among the entire group of weapon refiners, he is at the middle to lower level at best.
Therefore, facing Ye Zan's salute, Xu Ning quickly stepped aside and said with shame and annoyance on his face: "What does this mean, Elder Ye!"
"Hey," Ye Zan stood up, looked at Xu Ning and said strangely: "I just want to ask what Master Xu means. I just expressed my admiration for the first person in the world to refine weapons. Why is Master Xu so panicked? ”
"Elder Ye, don't learn the mundane market methods. They are inferior to the art of weapon refining. Although you are just a late learner, you should not allow others to blaspheme this way." Xu Ning brought up this topic again.
Ye Zan shook his head helplessly and said: "Master Xu believes that those who refine the components of magical weapons and do not understand the art of weapon refining are desecrating the art of weapon refining. Then the same theory applies to the art of weapon refining. Being a little stronger than Master Xu, does it mean that Master Xu is also blaspheming the art of weapon refining?"
Of course, Ye Zan's statement was a bit of a change of concept, but the truth had been explained before, and since Xu Ning didn't agree with it, he had no choice but to crush it forcefully.
"Haha!" Xu Ning laughed when he heard Ye Zan's words. What a joke, a kid at the Foundation Establishment Realm wants to compete with him in refining weapons. He is a master at the Golden Core Realm. Even if you put aside your status as a master of refining weapons, what you can do in refining weapons with the cultivation of the Golden Core Realm alone is far beyond what can be done in the Foundation Establishment Realm.
Xu Ning didn't know that the base station and Qianli Sound Transmission were created by Ye Zan, even though it was Ye Zan who was involved in the related matters. But after all, Ye Zan's cultivation and age were flaws. In fact, others had the same idea, thinking that there should be a master of weapon refining behind Ye Zan, perhaps a new powerful soul.
In fact, let alone outsiders, even those within the Yuqing Sect, including Wu Changsheng and others, believed that the base station and Qianli Sound Transmission should have been created by Patriarch Xuanyuan.
"Elder Ye, please don't make such a joke, otherwise I will think that you really intend to blaspheme the art of weapon refining." Xu Ning did not agree immediately, not because he did not want to use his weapon refining skills to crush Ye Zan , but give Ye Zan a hat in advance.
"A joke? You will know what a joke is." Ye Zan said as he casually picked up a teacup from the table next to him. Then, under everyone's gaze, Ye Zan's fingers flicked around the teacup, forming a faint rhythm.
At this moment, the entire hall was silent, and everyone looked at the tea cup in Ye Zan's hand curiously. This is about refining weapons on the spot! These people include masters of weapon refining, and some have seen masters refining weapons. Naturally, they can see what Ye Zan is going to do at a glance.
However, everyone knows that weapon refining has certain requirements for materials. Even if it is not promoted to a magic weapon in the future, the material must be strong enough to carry magic power. But what Ye Zan used was just an ordinary tea cup, which was not a good material for a magic weapon.
Ye Zan's speed was very fast, and he stopped after a while. Looking at the teacup floating in the air, exuding a faint halo, it turned out to be a magical weapon.
"Master Xu, do you want to give it a try?" Ye Zan said, pointing to the teacup in the air, and the teacup immediately floated towards Xu Ning.
