Chapter 447: Get out, Huge Bet
Chun Zensheng’s expression froze, he knew that he couldn’t blame President Yunxing. A smile reappeared on his face as he said, “Motu, you misunderstood me. I mean…”
Knock! Knock! Knock!
Lee Torte worked up the courage to open up the door and said, “Vice-Presidents, Mr. President asked you guys to go to the conference room.”
“So soon?” Ray Guamin’s heart shook lightly. “This fast? This Qian Jin isn’t a good egg. As soon as he could get his hands on a force, he rushed here this early.”“We got it.” Chun Zensheng waved his hand. After glancing around, he said, “I know that President Yunxing is the treasure of our union, and we should obey him without question. However, this matter will determine the future of our unions, so we need to be more careful.”
…
People walked out of the room with different expressions. Ray Guamin looked at each of the managers there and carefully calculated. He was very nervous. If he failed to stop Qian Jin, then the former leader of Ray Family would make his move.
In the upper-class, duel was an event of honor, but assassination shouldn’t be used unless it was the last resort. Once this was known to people, the result would be the wiping out of one of the forces that were involved.
If Qian Jin died, and there was no evidence… Ray Guamin sighed. If that was the case, he knew the president won’t let him stay in the union anymore.
“Mr. President…”
They all went to Yunxing Huisheng’s yard and bowed at him. Then, they all looked at Qian Jin.“This is the new president?”
“This is the person who is going to take the wheel here from now on?”
The crowd looked at Qian Jin, and Qian Jin also glanced around. His eyes stopped on Ray Guamin and Chun Zensheng. The hostility wasn’t hidden in their eyes.
“Mr. President, we heard that you are going to pass your president role to this young man Qian Jin who is from the Torrent Battle Fort?”
Chun Zensheng stepped forward and targeted Qian Jin. With provocation in his eyes, he continued, “I won’t question your vision, but I really don’t think this young man is suitable for the position of the president. As the president of Blacksmith Union, he must have unparalleled forging skills.”
Chun Zensheng stood up straight as he looked around proudly. Except for Yunxing Huisheng, all other people’s forging skills weren’t as good as him, even the disciple of Yunxing Huisheng – Ray Guamin.
A battle of forging skills? Chun Zensheng was confident that he was the only qualified candidate the role of the president.
Yunxing Huisheng didn’t look at Chun Zensheng, rather, he looked at Ray Guamin. He sighed, he didn’t expect his disciple even tried to fight back at this time.
“Mr. President…” Chun Zensheng felt a little resentful when he saw Yunxing Huisheng paying no attention to him.
Yunxing Huisheng laughed as he landed his eyes on this Vice-President that came from the Central Union. This man had never been considered for the presidency of the Blacksmith Union of Yulee. “Do you think you can control me because you are from the Central Union? If I can’t take care of you, I wasted too much time as the president.” He thought.
“Mr. President, I said that some people won’t like it.”
Qian Jin walked out with his hands behind his back. He smiled and thought, “Since I’m here to become the new president, I should take care of the conflicts. As a warrior, how can I step back and wait for other people to solve everything for me?”
Yunxing Huisheng smiled and nodded. “This young man isn’t even afraid of the Lord of Qian Region, Qian Zhanxuan, how could he be afraid of the challenge from the Vice-President Chun Zensheng? I can just stay here and watch.”
“Vice-President?” Qian Jin looked at Chun Zensheng and then the crowd. “Just come out, the people think I don’t qualify.” He said.
Chun Zensheng sneered as he stroked his goatee. “What do you want? Do you want to use your warrior technique against us? If you want to force us, you already won.” He said.
As soon as Chun Zensheng finished, a lot of blacksmiths in the crowd already started to stare at Qian Jin in anger. Blacksmiths weren’t as good at fighting as warriors and this young warrior’s words sounded very provocative.
Qian Jin laughed when he heard that. “This Vice-President is good at making a fuss. I want a united union and not a broken union.” He thought.
“Forging, right?” Qian Jin stretched his back as he pointed at a burning furnace not too far away. “I mean all of you can work on an item, and I can work on an item. To save time, let’s say four hours. Let’s compare our items to see who is better.”
“One versus many?” Ray Guamin’s eyes twitched. He wasn’t too confident with one versus one. “But how can Qian Jin take on a whole group of people?” He thought.
Chun Zensheng also laughed loudly. Forging itself was a work that required a lot of people. When Yunxing Huisheng forged items, he had asked help from the Vice-Presidents.
Some of the managers weren’t inferior to Yunxing Huisheng in terms of using the bellow. When someone was focusing on forging, someone else would need to focus on controlling the flames.
There was a corresponding manager who had mastered one part of the forging process. Overall, the strength of the blacksmiths at Yulee was outstanding as a group.
“We can’t win against you?” Chun Zensheng sneered with Ray Guamin. They both asked, “What if you lose?”
Qian Jin pointed at the gate and said, “I will get out of here.”
“Ok.” Chun Zensheng rolled up his sleeves as he smiled. “Let’s begin!” He said.
“Wait.” Qian Jin rubbed his nose and said, “I don’t like being taken advantage of. I will get out of here if I lose, what if you lose?”
Everyone was surprised. How was that possible? They all thought. Even Yunxing Huisheng only had a 60% chance of winning against them, and that 60% only would be possible if it was a long-time forging process.
Four hours? Chun Zensheng was sure that even Yunxing Huisheng only had a 10% chance of winning.
“Lose?” The crowd didn’t even think of that possibility. Chen Motu even made up his mind that he would go easy and let Qian Jin win if Qian Jin’s forging skill was not bad.
“I don’t need anything else.” Qian Jin looked around. “If you lose, you have to give me one item from your collection.”
“Collection?” Ray Guamin felt a chill going down his spine. Although Blacksmith Union was a whole, the members liked to collect rare materials so they would have the chance to forge a weapon that could be documented in the history.
“Put those up for the bet?” The people in the crowd hesitated. Determination appeared in Chun Zensheng’s eyes as he thought, “If we get scared by him now, I will never win!”
“Ok, deal!”
Qian Jin laughed. His forging skills improved lately, and his Zhanmadao could be improved as well. Since he didn’t have enough material, there was enough good material in these people’s hands. Qian Jin knew that he might even find some material that was suitable for making Soul Weapons.
Chun Zensheng walked towards the furnace as he looked at Manager Camill. This man was the best fire controller among all other Forge Masters.
Four hours wasn’t a short amount of time but neither was it long.
Chun Zensheng rushed to Yunxing Huisheng with a sharpened sword in his hand. It only took everyone four hours to create a Warrior Weapon! It was something that they could only dream about before.
As he saw Qian Jin slowly put out the fire, he thought happily, “We forged out a Warrior Weapon in less than four hours, how can you win against us?”
Ray Guamin who saw the Warrior Weapon Grade sword and relaxed a little. “We won, right?” He thought.
Chen Motu peaked at Yunxing Huisheng. He wasn’t sure why the president signaled him not to go easy. “Could it be that he is so confident in the young man? Except for the president, this is the work of art produced by all other high-level people at the union.” He thought.
Although they didn’t prepare ahead of time and didn’t do their best, it was still very powerful.
Tink!
Qian Jin threw the hammer onto the ground, and then he walked towards Yunxing Huisheng with the weapon he forged.
Chun Zensheng sneered as he saw the long black stick in Qian Jin’s hands. “Did this young man waste all of his time? He really liked showing-off; he didn’t even take his fancy clothes off during forging. Do you think you will become the president for sure?” He thought.
“You only have this after four hours?” Chun Zensheng was a little disappointed. “This thing can’t even handle one chop from my sword.” He thought.
“Yeah.” Qian Jin laughed. “It would have no problem destroying your garbage.”
“You can laugh all you want now!” Chun Zensheng thought. “Mine is a Warrior Weapon.”
Ray Guamin felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Qian Jin’s careless smile, but he didn’t know where it came from. “How can the weapon that the best blacksmiths in the union worked on lose to something this young man made?” He thought.
