Although rejected by Ye Li again, Ou Qianxie did not show any dissatisfaction on his face. Instead, he smiled.
He glanced at Ye Li and said, "Although casting can indeed distract you, it is not without benefit to you.
We, the weaponsmiths, can be said to be the people who are closest to the original power of each attribute. It is said that if the casting skills reach the extreme, everything in the world can be cast by me.
You should know that everything in the world is made up of the combination of nine attributes, and they all carry some traces of the origin of the world.
When we casters cast useful materials into talismans, we actually have to observe these materials carefully first, find out the traces of their origin contained within them, and then we can fuse these materials together and use their traces of origin to form the runes we need.
In this way, the talisman will have the corresponding power.
The runes you see on the talisman seem to be carved with tools, but in fact, that is not the case. Those runes are all formed naturally during the casting process.
Every excellent blacksmith has an understanding of the origins of various powers that is far beyond that of ordinary people, which also allows our way of talismans to go higher and further than ordinary people.
Moreover, if you can enter the Virtual God Stage one day, you will find that if you want to move to the next level, the deeper your understanding of the original power, the smoother your progress will be.
As for your request to stay here and receive instruction from me, that is actually not necessary. I will teach you some of the basics of weapon casting.
According to your talent, as long as you take some time to practice on weekdays, you should be able to get started quickly.
After that, you can come to me every six months, and I will naturally teach you the corresponding things according to your progress."
After hearing Ou Qianxie's words, Ye Li hesitated. Looking at the other party's attitude towards him, he really couldn't bring himself to refuse him again.
However, the benefits that Ou Qianxie just mentioned had almost no meaning to him. As his knowledge increased, he had already felt that his natal talisman was most likely a projection of the Origin Talisman Mother, which was the true source of power.
If he wanted to comprehend the origin, he didn't need to cast any equipment. As long as he reached a certain level and comprehended his own natal talisman, it would be enough. This was definitely the most efficient way of practicing.
The other contestants were looking at Ye Li with eyes full of jealousy. They never thought that Master Ou Qianxie, whom they had tried every means to become his disciple, would actually coax Ye Li into becoming his disciple.
Mo Yuesheng's face turned even more livid, his narrowed eyes full of malice. The man in front of him who had slapped him twice had snatched away the opportunity that should have belonged to him.
If Ye Li hadn't appeared, he would have been the one to become Ou Qianxie's disciple.
When Ye Li was hesitating whether to harden his heart and reject Ou Qianxie again, Tunri's voice suddenly sounded from his natal talisman.
"Ye Li, quickly agree to this old man's request and become his disciple."
Ye Li was stunned and asked in a voice transmission: "Senior Tunri, you asked me to become Master Ou Qianxie's disciple, but I don't need to become a weaponsmith. If I want to understand the power of origin, it would be better to study my natal talisman."
Tunri was sitting next to his natal talisman at this time, and nodded and said: "You are right, your natal talisman is the real good thing, but there is one thing, you want to study your natal talisman, it is too early now.
Before that, if you can learn the art of casting, it should allow you to have a deeper understanding of the original power, which is equivalent to laying a certain foundation for studying your natal talisman.
And you forgot that you still need to find a large amount of heavenly-grade materials to upgrade the Flowing Smoke Flame Furnace. After becoming a weaponsmith, these materials should be easier to obtain.
This old man seems to be very good at casting tools. He should have a lot of good materials stored. If you become his disciple, you might be able to get some."
Hearing Tunri's words, Ye Li rolled his eyes in his heart. Of course, he would not become Ou Qianxie's disciple just for the sake of heavenly-grade materials. However, if weapon casting could lay the foundation for studying his natal talisman in the future, he would not mind becoming a weapon caster.
While Ye Li was thinking, Ou Qianxie did not say anything, but just looked at him calmly, but Mo Yuesheng shouted "Don't agree" in his heart, because if Ye Li was unwilling to become his disciple, then he still had a chance.
After a while, Ye Li finally raised his head, looked at Ou Qianxie seriously and said, "Master Ou, I am willing to be your disciple."
Ye Li's words were simple, but his eyes were serious. Now that he had made the decision, there was no need to hesitate any longer.
Seeing Ye Li's eyes, Ou Qianxie touched his long beard that hung down to his chest and suddenly burst into laughter, shouting "OK" three times.
Although Ye Li had rejected him twice before, he did not feel angry. Instead, he secretly improved his evaluation of Ye Li in his heart.
Because there are not many young people who know clearly what they need and are not moved by seemingly precious external things. Although Ou Qianxie's name is loud and he can be called a master wherever he goes, if Ye Li doesn't need him, he should be worthless in Ye Li's world.
Ye Li did not make a blind choice because of his identity. Instead, he thought for a long time and decided whether to take him as a master based on his needs. This is the attitude a practitioner should have.
At this time, An Changsheng and the other two also stood up from their seats and walked to Ou Qianxie. An Changsheng said, "Congratulations, Qianxie, you have received a satisfactory apprentice.
This little guy looks really good. He has such a high level of cultivation at such a young age. Ziping, there aren't many people like him in your Imperial City, right?"
Xue Ziping looked at Ye Li. Maybe because he became Ou Qianxie's apprentice, the three of them also regarded him as one of their own, and their eyes became much more friendly.
He smiled at Ye Li and then said, "Although there are many talented people in my Imperial City, there are no more than 20 people who can reach the peak of the early stage of the Spiritual Sea Stage at the age of 18. I think the number in the other three holy places is not much different.
This little brother's cultivation speed should be ranked in the top 100 in the entire martial arts world. He is definitely a top talent. Brother Qianxie has found a treasure this time."
Ou Qianxie was delighted and couldn't help laughing again after hearing what the two said.
Pei Ku also walked up to Ye Li, patted his shoulder, and said, "Ye Li, now I have to call you Junior Brother."
Being suddenly surrounded by so many legendary masters and experts, Ye Li felt a little uncomfortable for a moment, especially when a weapon-casting master who was about the same age as Ye Wujiu called him "Junior Brother", which was really difficult for him to get used to.
At this time, the contestants on and off the stage had already revealed envious eyes, and Mo Yuesheng's eyes were full of jealousy and resentment. Ye Li's position should have been his.
