"I don't want money."

Golden Dragon shook his head, then said, "I plan to entrust Mingjian Group to help forge a famous sword with these Golden Flame Stones."

A famous sword crafted from upper grade treasures is bound to be of extremely high quality.

The saying goes, to do a good job, one must first sharpen one's tools; a fitting weapon is truly too important for a martial artist.

Especially for lone "retail" martial artists like Golden Dragon, the longing for a high-quality weapon is even stronger.

"Sigh~"

Ye Qingzhou took a deep breath, then approached Golden Dragon with a wide grin, "With such a simple request, why go to Mingjian Group? You could come to me instead."

"You?"

Golden Dragon expressed doubt; after all, while Ye Qingzhou was good at fighting, forging was a specialized skill, and he couldn't believe Ye Qingzhou's casting art could compare to Mingjian Group.

You should know, Star City Liu Clan is one of the most famous sword casting noble families in Xiang Province.

And within Mingjian Group, several renowned craftsmen hold their ground. Isn't that much more reliable than Ye Qingzhou?

"I think not."

Golden Dragon shook his head vigorously.

Ye Qingzhou, who had just obtained the "Celestial Casting Scripture," now urgently needed to boost his forging level. How could he pass up this opportunity?

He hurriedly stepped forward to persuade, "Brother Long, give me a chance, it's also a chance for yourself. And isn't Mingjian Group's fee quite pricey?"

Golden Dragon nodded, "Indeed, it's quite expensive. For my three Golden Flame Stones, they want to charge me two pieces as labor fees, though I don't need to buy other materials."

Among the remaining six Golden Flame Stones, three were Liu Dingjian's.

And of Golden Dragon's three Golden Flame Stones, only one was used to craft weapons, the other two were labor fees.

Outrageous!

Simply damn outrageous!

Mingjian Group, how can they run business so harshly?

How much can other materials be worth together?

Three upper grade treasure level Golden Flame Stones, two-thirds of them became fees, which is even more ruthless than robbery; Ye Qingzhou would only dare to rob 50% according to profit rates!

Mingjian Group charges directly 66%!

It's really... enviable!

In his heart, Ye Qingzhou had already decided, no matter what, he must pull Golden Dragon out of Mingjian Group's fiery pit and save him from the sea of suffering.

"Brother Long, my fees are cheap, only one Golden Flame Stone. Plus, you don't need to provide sword materials; you should know I have quite a bit of divine gold, right? Think about it, can Mingjian Group provide upper grade treasure level divine gold to forge your sword?"

Golden Dragon was instantly tempted. After all, he knew Ye Qingzhou took Kang Jinlong's remains, he wouldn't lack divine gold in any circumstance!

After all, divine gold is the same grade as Golden Flame Stone as a forging material; overall, he wouldn't lose out.

But he was still a bit concerned, "Can you really forge swords?"

"Rest assured, I've inherited the Flame Emperor's legacy and have learned top-tier sword casting skill, you have to trust me."

With that, Ye Qingzhou specially brought out his Celestial Punishment Sword for Golden Dragon to observe, "See, this is the best evidence of my great success in sword casting."

Ye Qingzhou was purely flattering himself talking like this, since the casting of the Celestial Punishment Sword was the setup of Flame Emperor and Xing Tian, Ye Qingzhou merely threw materials into the furnace at the end.

His "Celestial Casting Scripture" had just entered entry level, still far from proficient use, much less the "Celestial Human Casting" art, which requires at least great success realm.

But Golden Dragon didn't know that; he saw the transformed Celestial Punishment Sword and vaguely recognized it as Ye Qingzhou's Sword Fighting Competition champion reward, Suspended Cutting Sword.

"Your Suspended Cutting Sword, reforged?"

"That's right, it now has a new name, Celestial Punishment."

"Great name!"

Golden Dragon merely looked at Celestial Punishment Sword for a few moments and felt a sharp pain in his eyes, his scalp tingled, as if being executed by a guillotine, his entire body trembled.

Celestial Punishment Sword, acting punishment on behalf of heaven, truly lived up to its name!

Golden Dragon instantly chose to believe Ye Qingzhou's words, after all, the successful case was right before his eyes, he couldn't disbelieve!

And knowing Ye Qingzhou could forge swords, Liu Dingjian was also quite curious, "I heard you obtained the Flame Emperor's casting art legacy?"

"That's right."

Ye Qingzhou didn't hide it and straightforwardly admitted it, since Qin Haoyu also knew of the legacy's existence, there's no point in concealment.

Moreover, Ye Qingzhou was waiting for others to bring him materials to practice and brush skill level, so instead he hoped the matter would spread.

After a slight consideration, Liu Dingjian decided to test Ye Qingzhou's abilities and sent out a commission, "Can you help me forge a famous sword with these three Golden Flame Stones?"

Famous swords can only be forged by renowned craftsmen; such superb weapons must have the craftsman's heart and spirit, cannot be mass-produced.

Obviously, Liu Dingjian was testing Ye Qingzhou's ability limits, to see if he qualified as a renowned craftsman.

Ye Qingzhou offered a calm smile, "Sure."

......

After ten days, the remaining competition players were all teleported out of camp.

Linjiang Team solved the Hundred Cries Territory issue, creating a new explorable secret realm within Yanling Grotto Heaven, naturally earning the highest points and indisputably winning the crown.

Golden Dragon and Liu Dingjian discovered a new Strange Gold vein, and through strategy, brought back Golden Flame Stone, an upper grade treasure level material, ranking second in points.

As for Silver City Team, their group of girls' strength was admittedly a bit weak, suffering greatly in the ten days of exploration, ultimately unable to complete any tasks, earning zero points.

Yet fortunately, due to other teams being eliminated, Silver City Team, despite scoring zero, still ranked third.

Choosing wisely is better than effort; they lacked skill but because they refused to join the assault on Ye Qingzhou and Linjiang Team, in the end they took the bronze.
