Chapter 342 - Making a Determined Effort, Shi Songtao (1)

Zhou Shu and Yin Wuyou looked at each other with helpless expressions.

“Aren’t we a little funny?” Zhou Shu didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“A little.” Yin Wuyou was also a little embarrassed.

The two of them discussed for a long time before dissolving the Essence Cleansing Pills into the wine to reward the soldiers.

But then he realized that there was no wine in the camp!

Zhou Shu had forged the Cosmic Bangle in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament space. Before this, the army’s military supplies required a lot of manpower and resources to transport.

Since they were participating in the Ten Nations Martial Arts Tournament, there were naturally no luxuries such as wine in the army’s military supplies.

“Water for wine!” Yin Wuyou said.

“Medicinal wine is easy. Medicinal water…” Zhou Shu shook his head. Will there be a problem?

“At worst, I’ll just give them pills,” Yin Wuyou said. “In any case, I can say that it’s our imperial family’s secret treasure. I don’t need to explain too much to them!”

/

“That’s true.” Zhou Shu laughed. “We don’t need to explain anything. Aren’t we just asking for trouble? Okay, let’s do that.”

“Zhou Shu, how many Essence Cleansing Pills do you have?” Yin Wuyou asked curiously. “Is it really useless to me?”

Yin Wuyou blinked her bright eyes. In the past, she was very confident in her aptitude. After all, she might be the youngest second-rank martial artist in history.

But now, she felt that her cultivation speed was a little slow. She couldn’t even keep up with Zhou Shu. Zhou Shu would have an epiphany from time to time. Who could withstand this?

Yin Wuyou didn’t want to fall behind too far. How could she stand beside him then?

“It might not be completely useless,” Zhou Shu said. “It’s just that your aptitude is good enough. The Essence Cleansing Pill is at best icing on the cake.

“Feel free to take some if you want. It’s harmless.” Zhou Shu smiled and added, “I have plenty of Essence Cleansing Pills.”

Mi Ziwen had the Cosmic Bangle on him. After killing enemies, Zhou Shu would receive Essence Cleansing Pills.

Zhou Shu was now interested in forging Cosmic Bangles again. He would forge a few more Cosmic Bangles and distribute them later. He would have a never-ending supply of Essence Cleansing Pills then.

Yin Wuyou: “…”

Why does it feel like precious Essence Cleansing Pills are like candy to Zhou Shu?

Am I the princess, or is he?

I don’t even have that luxury!

Yin Wuyou was still feeling cold when Zhou Shu had already opened the space in the void beast skin and stuffed more than ten pills into her hand.

“The Hundred Wars Armored Army hasn’t returned yet. Grand Minister, if you have nothing to do, you can take a few Essence Cleansing Pills to test its medicinal effect.”

With that, Zhou Shu turned around and left.

Yin Wuyou gripped the Essence Cleansing Pills with one hand and scratched her hair with the other.

Her hair was messy, but it didn’t affect her beautiful face. Instead, it made her look more delicate and cute.

Yin Wuyou’s face fell. If you do this, what should I ask Father to reward you?

…

In the forging room, Shi Songtao was still frantically trying to forge a Cosmic Bangle.

He was no longer his usual neat self. His hair was a mess, and his face was dirty.

“Deputy Pavilion Master, I’ll show you how to forge the Cosmic Bangle by forging a few. Watch carefully.”

Zhou Shu picked up the forging materials.

Although the Cosmic Bracelet was a heaven-grade weapon, it was an auxiliary one and didn’t have the restrictions of ranked weapons.

Only one of each ranked weapon could bring rewards, but the Cosmic Bangles didn’t have this restriction.

In this case, of course, the more he forged, the better.

Shi Songtao’s eyes widened as he stared at Zhou Shu’s every move.

After an unknown period of time, a Cosmic Bangle gradually took shape in Zhou Shu’s hand.

Then it was time to fix the stars.

Zhou Shu’s movements were so smooth that Shi Songtao was mesmerized.

He didn’t even notice when Zhou Shu finished forging.

“Do you understand?” Zhou Shu looked at the Cosmic Bangle in his hand. This time, the craftsmanship was more beautiful than the first time. He was very satisfied.

“No…” Shi Songtao was ashamed.

He was a forging genius in vain!

He had actually seen Zhou Shu’s every move clearly, but there were still some things he couldn’t understand.

This feeling made Shi Songtao want to kill himself.

Ever since he had learned to forge, he had understood everything related to forging. Those who had learned to forge with him had always been shocked by the speed of his learning.

Shi Songtao never expected that one day, there would be a forging technique that he couldn’t learn!

“It’s okay.” Zhou Shu was very magnanimous this time. “Clumsy birds have to start flying early. Diligence makes up for weakness…”

Shi Songtao wanted to cry. Am I really that stupid?

“Watch carefully. I’ll show you again.” Zhou Shu took the forging materials and began to forge another Cosmic Bangle.

After some time, Zhou Shu put the Cosmic Bangle aside and asked, “Do you understand?”

“I—” Shi Songtao felt like crying.

“It’s okay. Again!”

Once, twice, three times…

Zhou Shu was getting faster and faster at forging the Cosmic Bangles. At first, it took seven to eight days to forge one. Now, it only took three to four days to succeed.

Forging Cosmic Bangles was a little different from forging other weapons. When there was no need to redesign the star paths, the overall forging difficulty was not very high.
