Meanwhile, Zhao Wu kept a close watch outside the weapon-refining room.
"This Jiang Wang is quite stubborn!"
Zhao Wu chuckled coldly.
He had already anticipated how Jiang Wang would perform next.
However, this is exactly what Zhao Wu hoped for.
Because crafting the Xuanbing Armor requires an extremely large amount of energy. While Zhao Wu has sufficient resources, he cannot provide them to Jiang Wang.
Therefore, Jiang Wang must pay the price.
This is also the main reason why he asked Jiang Wang to select these materials and to try to refine spiritual weapons.
Jiang Wang saw through all of this, which is why he didn't refuse and even offered to help refine the Xuanbing Armor.
"Jiang Wang! You're dead!"
Zhao Wu sneered, his eyes filled with malice.
Although Jiang Wang has a powerful background, his background is even more powerful than Jiang Wang's. Even Jiang Wang's father has to be careful in front of him.
He simply couldn't believe that a mere Jiang Wang would dare to disobey him.
...
Right now.
Jiang Wang left the weapon-refining room and went to the outer courtyard square.
At this moment, the square was bustling with people.
"Jiang Wang is here!"
Many weapon refiners raised their heads, revealing respectful gazes.
Jiang Wang is a veteran weapon refiner in the Refining Pavilion. He is highly respected among weapon refiners, especially in the Jiang family where he holds a prestigious position.
"Gentlemen, today, I will announce something here," Jiang Wang said loudly, standing on the steps. Instantly, the many weapon refiners around him stopped talking and gathered around, looking at him with eager eyes.
"From today onwards, Jiang Wang will serve as the chief person in charge of weapon crafting for our guild!"
"Whoosh—"
These words caused an instant uproar in the square.
Each weapon refiner guild has a clear division of labor.
First of all, the weapon refiners in the Refiner Guild are all top weapon refiners from major weapon refining families. They are usually responsible for weapon refining and are coordinated by the Refiner Association.
The Refining Pavilion is specifically responsible for collecting various secret manuals and training refiners.
The Alchemy Pavilion is where weapon refiners learn, and the alchemists in the Alchemist Guild have basically mastered all the refining methods.
Therefore, these two branches are the core of the Refiner's Guild.
Meanwhile, weapon refiners with exceptional talent like Jiang Wang were dispatched to serve as the chief person in charge of weapon refining.
This is something many weapon refiners dream of.
After all, their treatment was too poor; they were merely ordinary members of the Refiner's Association, receiving only five hundred low-grade spirit stones per month.
The head of the weapon refiners receives 20,000 spirit stones per month.
This is an absolute leap forward!
"Hahaha, Brother Jiang Wang truly lives up to his reputation as a prodigy in the weapon-refining world, actually being able to serve as the head of our Weapon-Refining Pavilion!"
"Congratulations, Brother Jiang, on your promotion to head of the department!"
A group of weapon refiners clasped their hands in congratulations, their faces full of flattery.
Jiang Wang said a few words of modesty, and then said, "Gentlemen, I have gathered you all here today because there is an important matter to discuss with you."
Upon hearing this, everyone became solemn.
Zhao Wu frowned, somewhat surprised: "What important matter?"
Jiang Wang glanced at Zhao Wu and said indifferently, "Manager Zhao Wu, it seems that our weapon refining pavilion has carried out a large-scale reduction in manpower recently. These young weapon refiners may not be enough... I wonder if Manager Zhao Wu could consider recruiting a few weapon refiners to replenish our ranks with fresh blood."
At this point, Jiang Wang's gaze swept across the crowd, landing on a thin young man. He pointed out, "This young man is quite good; his weapon-refining skills and aptitude are both top-notch. I recommend him as an assistant weapon refiner. What do you all think?"
Upon hearing this, the thin young man was stunned.
Zhao Wu's expression changed drastically, and he angrily retorted, "Jiang Wang, what do you mean? Do you think I, Zhao, am unreliable? Do you think I wouldn't dare to fire these people?"
"Hehe." Jiang Wang smiled without saying a word.
Clearly, he didn't take Zhao Wu's threat seriously at all.
"snort!"
Zhao Wu was furious.
He glared at Jiang Wang with a sinister look: "Jiang Wang, don't forget your place. You're just a weapon refiner, yet you dare to interfere in the affairs of the Weapon Refiners' Guild? Let me tell you, you've committed a serious dereliction of duty this time!"
"Now, I order you to get out of here immediately and leave the Refiner's Guild!"
"And you, you're not allowed to stay either!"
Zhao Wu pointed at the thin young man named Qin Heng and sneered, "You two remember this: the dignity of a weapon refiner cannot be trampled on. Our Weapon Refiner Guild does not welcome people like you. Get lost!"
"Zhao Wu, are you looking for death?"
Jiang Wang flew into a rage, his eyes turning red.
Qin Heng was his distinguished guest.
He would not allow anyone to humiliate Qin Heng.
"What? You're still not convinced?" Zhao Wu sneered, "What makes you, a useless weapon refiner, the head of weapon refinement in our guild?"
"Let me tell you, the person in charge of weapon crafting in our guild must be a person of high moral character and extraordinary strength to be qualified for the position!"
"Who do you think you are, to dare compete with me?"
"If you know what's good for you, get lost! I might spare your life."
"If you don't listen to my advice and insist on being stubborn, don't blame me for being impolite!"
Zhao Wu shouted coldly, his attitude extremely arrogant and domineering.
The weapon refiners beside him also looked at Jiang Wang with disdain, as if he were trash.
"Zhao Wu, you've gone too far!" Jiang Wang roared in anger.
"Hahaha, so what if I'm going too far?" Zhao Wu laughed arrogantly. "This is the Refiner's Guild, who can do anything to me?"
"let's go."
At this moment, Qin Heng spoke up.
Zhao Wu's words just now had angered him.
If it weren't for his status, he would have been killed long ago!
"Hmph, you're lucky you ran fast." Zhao Wu sneered, watching Qin Heng leave with a mocking smile, and cursed inwardly, "Once I take over the Weapon Refining Pavilion, the first person I'll kill will be you!"
In his view, Jiang Wang was nothing more than a clown.
It's not worth mentioning at all.
Qin Heng is the only troublesome one.
Therefore, he planned to take the opportunity to eliminate Jiang Wang, lest things get complicated!
...
On the other side.
Jiang Wang left Zhao Wu's office.
He remained silent and went to a secluded, dense forest behind the Weapon Refining Pavilion.
Countless precious minerals and medicinal herbs were once buried here.
Jiang Wang discovered a crystal-clear bead deep in the dense forest. The bead emitted a dazzling light, like a star hanging in the sky.
It is indeed the Nine-Colored Glazed Star!
"I underestimated alchemy, I underestimated weapon crafting, and I underestimated the cultivation civilization even more." Jiang Wang sighed and shook his head. He felt a huge surge of fire power within his body, making him feel extremely hot.
This is the energy contained within the Nine-Colored Glazed Star. It is a special essence formed from the condensation of fire elements, with an extremely high temperature, enough to melt steel!
