Book 1 Chapter 31: Rescue romance is not believable
As soon as Bai Yunfei heard that she was going to talk about the Crafting School, he cleared his head of thoughts and focused his attention to listen to her.
Qiu Luliu was very satisfied with his behavior, as if she was a teacher. She gave a gently cough and said slowly: “The Crafting School’s headquarters is located on Mt. Chixia, the highest mountain in Pingchuan Province in the north of the empire.
“Just like in the case of the Fate School, all the big schools are unwilling to provoke the Crafting School and even have to do their best to be on friendly terms with this school. This is only because of one thing — soul items!
“Naturally, the Crafting School is good at making items. Soul items are extremely valuable to ordinary soul cultivators, but I heard that anybody in the Crafting School has at least one soul item. You should know that having a powerful soul item can increase the power of a soul cultivator by several dozen percent, or even several times! Most of the many famous soul items in the continent came from the Crafting School. Even the headmasters of the Heavenly Soul Schools throughout history, who are also the emperors throughout history, have all been using the soul items specifically made for them according to their requests by the Crafting School. And the major powers and many powerful figures in the world of soul cultivators want the Crafting School to tailor-make super powerful soul items for them so much that they won’t hesitate to offer the school precious materials or to promise to do something for it in return.
“There are definitely other powers and individuals capable of making soul items in the continent, but even if two soul items are of the same tier, the one made by the Crafting School will still be slightly better. However, the Crafting School won’t rashly make soul items for other people, firstly because it’s very difficult to make soul items and also because they’re unwilling to let soul items become too widespread. Of course, to say ‘widespread’ is a bit too exaggerating, but looking from a certain angle, the Crafting School can indeed control the number of low-tier soul items in the world of soul cultivators, so it can be said that this school is one of the fulcrums of the major powers in the world of soul cultivators.
“The Crafting School is exceptionally strict about disciple admission. It almost only accepts soul cultivators whose soul essence has an affinity with the element of fire. And they still have to be extremely talented in craftsmanship to be able to obtain the secret special crafting methods in the school. Otherwise, they will become an outer disciple at most, practicing ordinary crafting methods. Even so, when any disciple of the Crafting School goes down from the mountain to gain experience, regardless of whether they are an outer disciple or an inner one, few people will provoke them, because you just don’t know how many soul items this relatively weak soul cultivator in front of you actually has on their body. Fighting enemies of higher levels and killing them by using many soul items is not difficult to disciples of the Crafting School at all.”
Having said so much, Qiu Luliu seemed to be somewhat tired. Only after pausing for a while did she say smilingly again: “That’s the basic situation of the Crafting School. So… you intend to go and ask to join this school, right?”
“Oh? How do you know?” Bai Yunfei blurted out subconsciously upon hearing her question. He was actually digesting the large amount of information which had just been obtained.
“You paid such a close attention to the Crafting School. If I still couldn’t guess it, wouldn’t I be a big fool?” Qiu Luliu gave him a glare somewhat discontentedly, as if she was blaming him for underestimating her intelligence.
