Chapter 76 - What a Surprise!

“Wu Mo’s here to cause trouble, isn’t he? It wasn’t easy for me to get two eights, and now he’s doing this to me?”

A student with good results immediately spoke up.

“This is simply ridiculous. If the defensive array in the auditorium hadn’t been destroyed, wouldn’t Wu Mo have scored 20 points for both assessments? Even the heavens won’t be able to stand it.”

Everyone complained about Wu Mo destroying the design assessment, and they all pointed their fingers at him!

A few teachers in charge of hosting immediately went forward to maintain order and prevent other problems from happening.

At the same time, the person in charge of the auditorium also built a temporary shed around the silver hammer to prepare for the restoration work later.

Fortunately, the school quickly set up a temporary line, allowing the auditorium to have light again.

Although it was not as grand as before, it at least allowed the design assessment to continue.

The principal immediately announced that the special assessment would start early. After the hall’s magic defense was repaired, the assessment that had not been completed before would continue.

Although most people were unwilling, they could only proceed in the face of the unsolvable matter.

The crowd gathered under the dim yellow light, and they were divided into three assessment zones again.

This assessment was specifically for them to display the unique functions of their forged work and the characteristics or differences between their work and the others.

At that moment, the sky was already dark, so they quickly carried on.

The first person to appear in Examination Zone 2 was Tang Mu.

Tang Mu and Wu Mo were students in the same classroom, and Tang Mu was also the class monitor.

However, he was usually arrogant, and he looked down on people from poor backgrounds.

Zhu Shan, who had previously received a 70% score in agility, held some grudges against him.

Wu Mo stood in the crowd and calmly looked at Tang Mu who walked onto the stage.

A few of Tang Mu’s good friends below the stage immediately began to call out his name as they cheered for him.

The three judges appeared a little absent-minded at this time.

The design assessment had not even reached the halfway point, but problems had already occurred. Moreover, there were quite a number of media personnel broadcasting the entire process. If it was not handled properly, it would definitely have a negative impact on the reputation of the Divine Arms Academy.

Right then, the principal was thinking of a solution, while the mayor’s attention was still on the hammer outside. He was trying to guess the silver hammer’s true grade.

As for the special guest judge, Zhou Jinlong, he frowned slightly as he stared at the lights above his head. He was somewhat dissatisfied with such a simple and crude facility.

“Honorable judges, please take a look at the Qilin Feather armor that I have forged.”

Tang Mu placed his beloved work on the platform and introduced it in a smug tone.

“This Qilin Feather Armor of mine is light, convenient, and weighs only about 700 grams. It was forged from the Blue Luan Bird’s feathers mixed with steel plates. As for the feathers and alloy scales on the armor, they were connected using riveting and overlapping technology. Not only can it increase the wearer’s speed, but it also has excellent toughness and defensive power. It can withstand the sharpness of blades and spears!”

Tang Mu’s words shocked everyone.

When the Qilin Feather Armor was placed on the exhibition stage, one could tell at a glance that it had been exquisitely made. The practical design of its body and various protective parts were apparent too.

His craftsmanship was really commendable since he could make such an armor!

“Not bad, but this kind of technology isn’t rare. I can only give you eight points.”

The mayor was the first to speak. There was a hint of admiration in his expression, but the points he gave were not too high.

Soon, all the judges finished grading the project. Tang Mu scored the first eight points and walked down the assessment stage with an excited expression.

Wu Mo saw everything that went on in the next assessment.

Some of them possessed good quenching techniques, and their weapons displayed durability. Others had the unique forging techniques of their families and added new characteristics to their weapons.

However, the scores they received were all five to seven points. There were also quite a number of people whose works had mediocre effects and were directly eliminated from the assessment.

Not long after, it was Wu Mo’s turn again for the third round, the specificity test.

However, in the eyes of others, Wu Mo was in a very awkward position.

The weapon he had forged displayed excellent agility earlier. However, he had accidentally smashed the weapon and sent it flying.

It was obvious that the hammer was not a weak product. Otherwise, he would not have been able to destroy the Tier 3 magic array so easily.

Nevertheless, the hammer was still in the flower bed outside. If he could not even pull it up, how could he continue the assessment?

A few people around watched the show happily. They laughed and said, “It’s over, it’s over. Wu Mo will be the first student to fail this test because he doesn’t have a weapon!”

“I’m dying of laughter. That lump of metal flew out. There’s no way to compete with us now.”

There were spectators and many mocking voices below the stage.

Wu Mo had a strong start, but now that he did not have a weapon, he would be directly eliminated. In that case, even if he got full marks in the other five tests, what was the point?

A dramatic scene began to unfold, causing the three judges and the jury to be somewhat dumbfounded.

The Divine Arms Academy’s graduation assessment had been held for more than ten years, and there had never been a situation where a weapon was lost halfway through the examination.

At this point, Wu Mo still appeared calm in the face of the crowd’s ridicule and discussion.

He did not make a sound to explain. Instead, he raised his right hand in front of the three judges.

Zap… Krash!

As Wu Mo clenched his right hand in the air, the sound of electricity and glass shattering abruptly reverberated outside the auditorium.

Since Wu Mo had made the same signature move during the agility assessment, when he did it again, everyone raised their heads to look at the stained-glass window at the top of the auditorium.

Boom!

Before everyone’s eyes, a silver square-handled hammer suddenly appeared in the air with golden lightning.

The crowd had no time to react as the hammer smashed the glass with the sound of breaking wind.

At that moment, lightning flashed and thunder rumbled outside the window. A bolt of golden lightning struck down, and the dazzling light instantly lit up the entire auditorium!

The golden lightning swam in the air above the auditorium, dispersing the darkness and illuminating the terrified expressions on everyone’s faces.

All the participating students and teachers had shocked expressions!

Was this strange phenomenon not a Divine weapon recognizing its master?!

The weapon that many people had underestimated was actually a complete Divine weapon!

There was no doubt about it now.

No wonder the hammer could easily knock down all the other weapons and instantly destroy the Tier 3 protective array. Many cultivators could not even pick it up after it fell to the ground.

This legendary Divine weapon was just as the textbook described. Once bound, only the owner, whom the Divine weapon recognized, would be able to pick it up.

Others would not be able to move it in the slightest.

No one had expected that an unremarkable silver hammer would actually be a Divine weapon!

Moreover, this Divine weapon had been forged by a student!

Seeing this, the mayor sitting in the judge’s seat immediately stood up with a face full of excitement.
