Xia Yuan took a step back slightly, his heart pounding.

It seems that it is not illegal for a fool to kill someone...

After staying for a while and making sure that Senior Brother Meng Tong would not suddenly get violent and push him to the ground and rub him repeatedly, Xia Yuan turned his attention to the sword embryo again.

In Meng Tong's eyes, the speed of Xia Yuan's inscriptions was terrifying, but only Xia Yuan knew the true situation.

The second carving was equally smooth and fast, but by the third time, the speed had slowed down.

Of course, it succeeded in the end.

But on the fourth time, Xia Yuan almost drew several lines wrong.

Now Xia Yuan finally understood why Meng Tong was already in fourth grade, but he was still only a quasi-two-star weapon refiner.

Indeed, the further back the lines are stacked, the more difficult it becomes.

It was just this fourth step that made Xia Yuan feel a little strenuous.

Of course, if Meng Tong hears these words, then he might suddenly burst into rage, cut Xia Yuan into pieces and then roar thirteen times.

Because when Meng Tong was portraying the fourth path, it was not that he was struggling at all, but that he was almost powerless, okay?

Only by choosing the runes he is best at and carving them on these lowest-grade raw ores, he might be 70% or 80% sure of success.

As for the success rate of carving the fifth inscription——

Haha, only God knows.

The four runes were all carved on the sword embryo by Xia Yuan.

Next is the final process, which only needs to be completed, then Xia Yuan can be considered to have completed a beautiful instrument.

He wanted to ask about the final steps, but when he saw Senior Brother Meng Tong beside him who was silly and kept talking about something, Xia Yuan decided to put safety first and not ask.

Anyway, according to what my senior brother said, the final process is the simplest.

I think with Xia Yuan's genius, there will definitely be no problems.

Well, yes, that’s it!

Taking a deep breath, Xia Yuan began to use the power of water in his body, slowly covering the entire sword embryo.

And the four runes were also flashing continuously, and gradually began to sink into the inside of the sword embryo.

All the movements were perfect, and it felt much more relaxed than Meng Tong.

Finally, there was a loud 'bang'.

Xia Yuan - failed...

Looking at the broken sword embryo with disgrace, Xia Yuan also followed in Meng Tong's footsteps and began to doubt life a little.

The first step is perfect, the second step is perfect, and the third step is also perfect, but why is it finished in the last step?

Didn't Senior Brother say that the last step is the easiest?

But when it comes to me, why did the last step fail?

Could it be that my previous geniuses were all illusions and that I was simply a fake genius?

After thinking for a while, Xia Yuan still gave himself a negative answer.

He, Xia Yuan, is such a genius!

Therefore, Xia Yuan began to think about what exactly was wrong with him.

After thinking for a long time, I even picked out a few hairs, but still couldn't find the problem.

At this time, Xia Yuan wanted to ask, but the loud noise did not wake up Meng Tong from his state of dementia.

Xia Yuan wisely gave up his previous idea.

Who knows whether the senior brother I called here is a real senior brother or a crazy senior brother.

After thinking about it for a while, Xia Yuan remembered that someone named something like that seemed to have said it.

Failure is not terrible, what is terrible is to keep failing.

So Xia Yuan looked at the debris on the ground and gritted his teeth considering that he didn't have to pay points for these raw ores -

continue!

Ever since, after a short period of time, Xia Yuan's side kept hearing "bang bang" sounds...

Xia Yuan's face was ashen and his body was trembling slightly.

This is not empty, but angry!

Ten times, exactly ten times!

Every time, I am in the top three perfectly and finish last.

At this moment, Xia Yuan, even an idiot, understood that his failure was not accidental, but had a reason.

Failure is painful for a while, and failure is always painful.

Therefore, Xia Yuan no longer plans to continue, he needs to find out the reason and justify his genius!

However, after thinking about it for a long time, Xia Yuan found that he had not made any mistakes at all. Everything was done according to what Meng Tong said.

So, is there something wrong with the knowledge taught by Meng Tong?

Looking at Meng Tong who was still in a daze, Xia Yuan finally plucked up the courage to wake up his senior brother who was still muttering to himself about his mother.

"Senior brother, senior brother..."

After a series of calls, Meng Tong finally woke up.

"Ah, what's wrong, junior brother?"

Seeing that Meng Tong finally returned to normal, Xia Yuan breathed a sigh of relief.

It seems that the one who woke up is Senior Brother Zhen.

"Senior brother, I don't know why, but I failed in the last step. Do you know the reason?"

Hearing Xia Yuan's question, Meng Tong's eyes suddenly lit up for some reason.

"Haha, it turns out there is something you are not good at!"

Xia Yuan: "???"

What the hell is wrong with this senior brother? Are you so happy if I fail?

It seemed that he also realized that it was wrong to rejoice in others' misfortune, so Meng Tong coughed lightly and transformed into the good senior brother Meng Tong who had been in the spring breeze again.

"It's okay, isn't it just a failure? Even if the last step is very simple, there is still a possibility of failure."

"These all happen by chance, so there is no need to worry. If you try it again, you should be able to succeed..."

Meng Tong gave what he thought was the most perfect answer.

It's a pity that Xia Yuan's face was a little tangled at this moment, and he looked like he was blushing for the rare moment.

He stretched out his finger and pointed at the debris on the ground: "Brother, I thought this was the case before, but after trying it several times in a row, it still failed..."

Meng Tong looked at the debris on the ground, his heart pounding.

Swallowing hard, he looked at Xia Yuan in a daze and asked: "Junior...Junior brother, how many more times have you tried..."

Xia Yuan felt increasingly embarrassed and stretched out a finger.

"Once? That's okay."

That is not bad.

Although these raw ores are not valuable, he can't afford them in large quantities. It's just two pieces of raw ore, but Meng Tong still doesn't care.

There is no way, he, Meng Tong, is rich!

However, when Meng Tong looked at the debris on the ground again, he felt something was wrong.

Including his previous failure and Xia Yuan's two failures, that is, three pieces of raw ore were shattered. However, the number of fragments on the ground obviously exceeded this number.

At this moment, Meng Tong saw Xia Yuan slowly extending his other finger.

Two fingers exactly form ten...

Stretch out your hand and touch your heart.

"ten times?"

His voice was trembling, and Meng Tong felt like stars were popping up in his eyes.

Xia Yuan lowered his head and nodded lightly.

The senior brother kindly gave me points to exercise, but he wasted ten times in a row. Even Xia Yuan, who was so thick-skinned, blushed at this moment.

Meng Tong took a deep breath. Then——

Take a few more deep breaths.

There was nothing he could do, he couldn't breathe for the first few breaths...
To be continued...
