Sun Yuzhang's words sounded a bit far-fetched, but from the point that he could directly judge that Ye Li's strength was above the Divine Dao stage, this person's thinking was very meticulous.
What these people explain may sound far-fetched to ordinary people, but they actually rely on a lot of reasons when making judgments in their hearts.
These reasons may be fleeting thoughts when you are thinking, and forgotten when you want to speak them out, but they are all the basis for correct judgment.
Ye Li glanced at Sun Yuzhang in front of him. The other party spoke with a very certain tone. He could really judge that Ye Li's strength was above the Divine Dao stage.
This judgment ability is much stronger than that of most talisman masters.
"Although your speculation sounds good, it can only correctly judge my cultivation level, but it still cannot make a definitive conclusion about my weapon-making level."
Ye Li said.
Sun Yuzhang looked at Ye Li and sighed, saying, "Sir, I actually have no other choice.
If I can't win this duel, Xiaomei will have to marry someone else. Now the family's weaponsmith cannot participate in this duel, and I can't find any weaponsmith at the moment. I have no other choice but to ask you for help."
Seeing Sun Yuzhang's worried look, Ye Li said, "Tell me what happened exactly."
After hearing what Ye Li said, Sun Yuzhang looked around, nodded, and said, "Sir, please follow me. It's not convenient to talk here. Let's talk inside."
Hearing Sun Yuzhang's invitation, Ye Li did not refuse. He nodded and followed him into a nearby house.
After sitting down, Sun Yuzhang said, "Sir, I really have no choice but to trouble you this time.
Tong Xiaomei, the daughter of the Tong family, and I are in love with each other and hope to get married.
However, Tong Wanxiong, the head of the Tong family, betrothed Xiaomei to Dong Sanjin, the young master of the Dong family in Wanjinge.
The Dong family is financially stronger than us, and is a long-established first-class chamber of commerce. In the past, it was second only to the four major chambers of commerce.
Tong Wanxiong also took a fancy to this point of the Dong family, so he hoped to have a relative relationship with the Dong family.
Dong Sanjin, the third young master of the Dong family, is simply a dandy boy who has been bullying men and women for years and doing all kinds of evil things. He has poor cultivation himself and relies on his family's power to do whatever he wants.
Xiaomei has been fighting hard against this marriage, and I also challenged Dong Sanjin in front of the Dong family.
I deliberately used provocation to provoke Dong Sanjin and forced him to accept my challenge. Whoever loses will give up Xiaomei, and the challenge will be carried out in the presence of three families, so I am not afraid that Dong Sanjin will default on his debt.
Who knew that Dong Sanjin was not an easy person to deal with? No one knew who gave him the idea and allowed him to win the right to choose the competition method.
It turned out that this guy didn't want to compete with me in battle at all, but to see who could forge the most powerful talisman.
Neither Dong Sanjin nor I are weaponsmiths, so we have to find someone to take on the challenge.
We both agreed that we cannot ask the family's weaponsmith for help, but can only ask outside weaponsmiths.
Dong Sanjin relied on his family connections to find a top-level weaponsmith.
My family didn't support me in competing with Dong Sanjin at all, so they didn't help me find a weaponsmith.
With my own abilities, I can't find a weaponsmith strong enough to fight. Most weaponsmiths are unwilling to join the battle after knowing the level of their opponents.
After all, joining the war would be humiliating, and might even offend the Dong family and that heavenly-level weaponsmith. No one was willing to do such a thankless task.
Previously, the Lord said that he wanted to borrow the foundry, and that he wanted to borrow our best foundry to forge god-level talismans.
The waiter who received you, sir, happened to be my confidant, so he immediately reported the matter to me.
I came here as soon as I knew about this, hoping to convince you to help me, which is why what happened just now happened."
Sun Yuzhang told Ye Li everything in detail.
Ye Li thought about it after hearing this and said, "I see, this is why you need the help of a high-level weaponsmith.
Anyway, I have already promised to help you. I will help you win this weapon casting competition.
Of course, I am not moved by your feelings for Miss Tong. I am here for the Feixian Fruit. I have some use for it."
Hearing Ye Li's words, Sun Yuzhang smiled with relief and said, "It's best if you help me for the Feixian Fruit. This shows that you are really sure of winning.
If you are helping me out of sympathy, then you may not be sure of winning."
Ye Li was stunned when he heard this, then he reacted, nodded, and said: "That's right, in order to fight for their own interests. People will always try their best.
But when it comes to helping a stranger, not everyone is willing to give their all.”
After saying this, Ye Li glanced at Sun Yuzhang. The man in front of him was considered to be very smart.
Without saying much, since Ye Li had already promised the other party, he would definitely do his best.
Whether in fighting or forging weapons, Ye Li didn't think that the weaponsmith Dong Sanjin hired could defeat him.
Sun Yuzhang asked, "Sir, I don't know how I should address you?"
Sun Yuzhang asked about Ye Li's arrival.
Ye Li said: "My last name is Ye, you can call me Master Ye. Just as you guessed, I am indeed a master-level weaponsmith.
Just prepare the Feixian Fruit. No matter what we compete in, he can never beat me!"
Ye Li did not hide his strength too much. At his level, there was no need to hide his weaknesses anymore.
Hearing Ye Li's words, Sun Yuzhang stood up in surprise.
He didn't know how many master-level weaponsmiths there were on the Black Eye Continent, but he was very clear that the strength of a master-level weaponsmith was definitely far beyond that of a heaven-level weaponsmith.
The way he looked at Ye Li was completely different, his eyes were full of respect.
He knew that his judgment was correct and Ye Li was indeed an expert.
In his opinion, Ye Li's youthful appearance was probably just maintained by force, not that Ye Li was really younger than him.
He had already started talking to Ye Li in the manner of a junior, which made Ye Li feel a little uncomfortable. After all, he was not really an old man.
After the agreement was reached, Sun Yuzhang took Ye Li to a small building of the Sun family that was used to accommodate VIPs for renovation.
Ye Li will be fighting against Dong Sanjin's weaponsmith in two days, so he doesn't have to wait here for too long.
During these two days, Ye Li almost never left the small building, nor did he think about the matter of casting weapons. He spent the two days practicing on his own to consolidate his previous understanding of the Yin-Yang principles.
During these two days, he felt that there seemed to be some changes in Xiaoqing, and a feeling of joy faintly came from his soul.
Ye Li deduced that Xiao Qing might have reached the middle stage of the Talisman Saint. If this was true, he would be very happy about it. (To be continued)
