Principal Fick’s smile made him look like a sly fox, but his eyes were filled with appreciation as he looked at Qian Jin. “This kid isn’t just strong; he also has a clear mind. He attacked and fought with people he knew he could beat, and he threatened potential opponents so that they wouldn’t challenge him,” he thought.

Rodriguez on the other hand was so happy that his teeth almost fell off. Warrior Energy was harder to advance the higher the level. Many people trained for a year and wouldn’t see any improvements. Currently, there were only two people in the top ten seats in Grade Three who had Level 6 Warrior Energy, but Qian Jin was only Grade One!

Invincible! Rodriguez was very thrilled. “What Qian Jin demonstrated was more than just invincibility in Grade One; perhaps he could be considered invincible in the whole academy. Maybe, his muscular endurance isn’t as great as the top two warrior students in Grade Three… Eh! It seems like it…”

The two warrior students from Grade Two who were toyed with by Qian Jin last night looked scared as they slowly backed into the crowd. They thought that if they got any top ten seats in their grade to come out and fight Qian Jin, they would get their revenge. However, from looking at the current situation, it seemed like even the top ten seats in their grade would be beaten. Qian Jin just seemed too strong!

“Okay, okay! That’s enough!” Principal Fick slapped his hands together and shouted, “Start jogging, unless you don’t want to eat any breakfast.”

The crowd organized themselves and started to move. Qian Jin and Rollin jogged together, but they seemed a bit lonely since no one else was running beside them. The other students were a bit scared of him after that battle; they wanted to keep some distance from him.

“Huh?” Qian Jin discovered something strange. Julius was still very haughty last night, but she was now a bit scared of the timid Grabriella as well!

“Julius is scared of Gabriella?” Qian Jin scratched his head and couldn’t wrap his head around it. “What is going on? This is too strange,” he wondered.

Gabriella, who was sitting at the corner of the stage, was still doing what she did always. Her eyes were closed and she was carefully mediating.

After breakfast, Qian Jin saw instructor Rodriguez who was coming at this angrily as he exited the cafeteria.

“Instructor…” Qian Jin bow a little and nodded at Rodriguez. “Why are you so mad in the morning? It’s not good for your health.”

“Get out of here.” Rodriguez knocked Qian Jin’s head with his knuckles and said, “It’s all because of you. Where are you going?”

Qian Jin pointed in the direction of the classroom and said, “Where else? I’m going to class. I will get my grades deducted if I don’t go.”

“Going to class? Do you still remember what you promised me yesterday?” Qian Jin could almost see an actual angry fire in Rodriguez’s eyes; the flames were almost burning onto his face.

“Yesterday? Oh, do you mean Fabreidis?” Qian Jin scratched his head and said, “But my grades will be deducted if I don’t show up…”

“Get out of here!” Rodriguez tried to kick Qian Jin’s butt, but he dodged. If he didn’t, he would have to do the laundry again.”

“I excused your absence with all of your instructors for the day. Go and do what you promised now.”

“Ah? Oh.” Qian Jin slowly walked towards the gate of the academy as he said, “In terms of…”

When he heard Rodriguez’s rapid footsteps coming from behind, Qian Jin laughed as he paced himself. Rodriguez was known to have a short temper; if he continued walking slowly like this, he might get kicked by Rodriguez again.

“You are lucky that you got away.” Rodriguez raised his arm and shouted in a caring manner. “Kid, pay attention. Don’t keep yourself away from your future! We all only have one life. Don’t regret your actions when you get older.”

“Got it.” Qian Jin didn’t turn around, but he did wave back; he felt a warmth in his heart. “Although this instructor is short tempered, he is really nice to me. Even if I can’t find the [Supreme Wind and Cloud Energy Training Scroll] in this trip to Oakland Academy, it’s worth it to get to know fatty Rollin and instructor Rodriguez!” He thought.

After he left the academy, he took out the card that Fabreidis gave him yesterday. The card had a dedicated map on it, and it gave direction to Fabreidis’ home.

Coincidently, the path to Fabreidis’ home went through Franklin’s Blacksmith Shop.

After considering that powerful and influential people didn’t usually wake up super early in the morning, he decided to go into Franklin’s Blacksmith Shop first.

“Wow, you are early.” Franklin was poking his head out of door to check for the time by looking at the location of the sun with his hammer in his hand as he saw Qian Jin walking in. “It’s still morning; you should be in class at the academy right now. Although forging will make you money, you shouldn’t neglect your main focus. You should go back to the academy and learn.”

Qian Jin felt his heart warm from this. The first thing that this senior blacksmith, who only knew him for a few days, thought about when he saw him wasn’t how much extra revenue the blacksmith shop could generate, but rather his warrior training and education.

“Franklin…” Qian Jin scratched his head as he walked to the workshop in the backroom. “The instructor told me to go to Fabreidis’ place today and excused me from all the classes for the day,” he said to Franklin.

“Really?” Franklin said anxiously. “Why aren’t you heading there?”

Qian Jin pointed to the sky in the backyard and said: “It’s still early. What if he is still asleep? I don’t want to be the one to wake him up. Instead, how about I forge a few [Refined Irons]? Can you help me start the forge and light the fire?”

“Why not?” Franklin smiled as he passed his hammer to Qian Jin and started to work the bellows.

Qian Jin held the hammer and stared at the pig iron that was heating up and getting red. He didn’t start forging right away. He was playing back the strange strike that he learnt in the Endless World inside his head, and he practiced how to control and land the hammer hundreds of time in the air.

Franklin suddenly felt that Qian Jin, who had the hammer in his hands today, was different compared to his old self a few days ago. He had a faint temperament of a blacksmithing master. Franklin felt like he wasn’t watching a young man, but rather an experienced master who had forged for numerous years and had been through a lot of situations!

Suddenly! Qian Jin breathed in a mouthful of heated air and the [Forging Breathe Technique] started to affect his inner state. The heat energy travelled through each individual dead energy reservoir as Qian Jin lifted the hammer up into the air.

“This…” Franklin was stunned by Qian Jin. When this young man lifted the hammer, he expressed a special temperament! This temperament… This temperament was very similar to the temperament of the statue that was standing in front of the Blacksmith Union – the statue of the God-tier Blacksmith Master Orville!

This statue was made by God-tier Sculpture Master Salakato. He spent ten years of his life and made a complete replica of God-tier Blacksmith Master Orville. The masterpiece had all of Orville’s temperament and emotion.

“Realize and learn from this statue! All of my skills and techniques are embedded in this statue.” These were the last words from God-tier Blacksmith Master Orville before he left the Blacksmith Union and disappeared.

For many years, numerous blacksmiths went to the headquarter of Blacksmith Union to pay tribute to Orville and hoped to get the technique or the institutional knowledge from the God-tier Blacksmith Master.
