As Wu Hanning walked step by step, a powerful momentum was released from her body.

She was like a ferocious tiger among a flock of sheep at that moment as she was dazzling and eye-catching.

Due to the pressure, which was similar to a Supreme Great Ancestor's, the crowd avoided her frantically. Although her martial arts cultivation base was only of Yang Grade Class Three, her superb mental power gave her extra energy.

The chaos in the square instantly drew everyone's attention, by which Zuoqiu Hongyuan, who was on the ring, was attracted too.

He immediately spotted Wu Hanning walking toward the ring, and his face could not help but change.

As compared to the ill-informed Ou Yangming, the top-notch powerhouses from the younger generation in the Wu Dynasty were familiar with each other. Even if they had never met before, they had long heard of each other.

Besides, Zuoqiu Hongyuan had already regarded Wu Hanning as his greatest opponent, so how could he not know of her?

He was in grave concern because his battle against Wu Hanning would be disadvantageous for him regardless if he was defeated or not.

Nonetheless, Zuoqiu Hongyuan would not flinch at this point. On the contrary, he experienced an upsurge of lofty sentiments and gained indescribably intense willpower.

'Since we'll have to fight sooner or later… Bring it on!'

The crowd subconsciously made way for Wu Hanning, so she had a clear path to the ring.

Just as everyone thought Wu Hanning would go up to the ring, she looked up and uttered coldly, "Zuoqiu Hongyuan, if I defeat you now, the other people will say I'm taking advantage of you while you're worn out from your previous fight." She later lifted her chin. Even though her face could not be clearly seen due to the scarf, everyone else seemed to be able to sense her arrogance, which came from her bones. "I hope you'll still be standing in the ring after 10 days."

Subsequently, he turned around and headed in another direction.

The people in that direction anxiously made way, allowing Wu Hanning to get up to another ring.

She announced on the ring, "This ring belongs to me!"

A clamor was heard on the square.

Ring domination—it was a ring domination!

Countless powerhouses showed up at the past Myriad Treasure Meets, but those who succeeded in dominating rings became renowned as long as they were still alive. This was because they all became Supreme Great Ancestors and were the greatest powerhouses among great ancestors.

Nevertheless, it was not easy to dominate a ring because they had to accept challenges from heroes all around the world.

Those who dominated rings were naturally common enemies, such that the different forces would let go of prejudices to attack them together.

Unless someone was one-up, no, at least two-ups or three-ups on his or her opponents, one could not dominate the ring until the end.

Moreover, ring dominations normally began on the last day, hence it was rare that someone dominated a ring 3 days before and ended up victorious.

Having said that, there were already two people who dominated a ring each on the first day of the Myriad Treasure Meet, and this was definitely a first. The people in the square slowly calmed down, but most people cast unfriendly looks at the two people in the rings.

'So what if you're from the Wu imperial family? So what if you're Zuoqiu Hongyuan? Since you dare to become enemies with the heroes in the world, you can't blame us for attacking you!'

Two Yang Grade martial artists approached the rings. After they were done with the registration, they went up to a ring each.

Cheers filled the air, but there was an enormous change in the inclination because not many people were cheering for the two ring defenders.

Ou Yangming looked deeply at the ring, then he turned around and walked in the opposite direction.

He soon made his way out of the crown, then he returned to the Smithing Hall.

The crowd in the hall was somewhat back to normal. Many people watched the fight on the square and were discussing the fight discreetly, but this was the Smithing Hall, after all. It was a place for different forces to earn Prestige Points, and it was also a shortcut for some ordinary blacksmiths to gain a reputation. Therefore, everything here still revolved around smithing.

As soon as the servant from before spotted Ou Yangming, he welcomed the young fellow and led him into a smithing room.

A sturdy fat man was already there, and he cupped his hands at Ou Yangming. "Master Ou, I'm Duanmu Liang from the Journey Chamber of Commerce. I've seen your performance at the Blacksmith Assessment, and I truly admire you."

Ou Yangming was shocked as a thought crossed his mind. "I believe that the Journey Chamber of Commerce is also one of the forces at the Myriad Treasure Meet, am I right?"

Duanmu Liang laughed out loud. "Master Ou, you're overthinking. We're participating in the Myriad Treasure Meet too, but we can't be at the top for sure, so we're taking this opportunity to finish some tasks. Please don't laugh at us."

"Shopkeeper Duanmu, you're overthinking too." Ou Yangming was relieved. He asked after a pause, "Since I'll be rewarded with Prestige Points, it'll be my pleasure. Where's the equipment?"

'Master Ou seems to be quite impatient. Can he really complete the task successfully?' Duanmu Liang wondered as he was slightly stunned, but he dared not express his thought in front of Ou Yangming. With that, he quickly picked up a bag and placed it on the casting table.

Ou Yangming shook his head and thought, 'Look at how cool Wu Hanning was; she only needed an interspatial bag.'

Despite that, how many people in the world were like Wu Hanning?

A pair of boots along with roughly ten unique ores were put on the table after the bag was opened.

Duanmu Laing noted in a deep voice, "Master Ou, you have three opportunities, and I hope you'll succeed!"

Ou Yangming nodded and replied to him, "Don't worry."

It was inevitable for Duanmu Liang to be concerned, but he could only bow at Ou Yangming and left.

Ou Yangming was glad when he held the pair of boots. 'Luckily, I learned the way to make boots from Master Wu Hongxi, or I won't be able to complete this task.'

His eyes lit up when he briefly sensed the equipment.

The pair of boots was unordinary because it was Fine Grade Class Four. On top of that, they were carved with rune marks, which were so wonderful that the boots' properties were connected as one.

In other words, the boots could be attached with Unique Attributes at the same time. Not only would it not be more difficult to refine them, but the difficulty level would also be lowered.

Needless to say, many possibilities were sacrificed for this, but this could unquestionably increase the success rate by a huge margin if one wanted to pursue a certain Unique Attribute.

Ou Yangming nodded and thought, 'Looks like the Journey Chamber of Commerce is determined this time.'

Following that, he enveloped the boots with his Military Fire, but instead of being at a hot temperature, it was presented at room temperature.

The young fellow casually picked up a rare ore because the ore's attribute did not matter to him; he only needed to layer what was provided. That said, once the ore melted and the attribute was drawn, his face looked rather funny.

'Evasion.

'This thing carries the Evasion attribute…'

He had the same attribute in his sea of consciousness, but there was only one of it.

Ou Yangming studied the rare ores and remembered them well, then he attached the Evasion Attribute to the boots.

For other blacksmiths, it was easier to attach high-level attributes to boots like these, but there was no difference for Ou Yangming.

Before long, Ou Yangming successfully attached the attributes with five ores as he was familiar with the process. After some thought, he picked up another ore and increased the Evasive attribute to 6 points. Once he was done, he picked two ores to put them aside, then he burned the remaining ores with his Military Fire.

The Evasive attribute was incredibly rare, so he was not going to miss it.

Given that he did not have a relationship with the Journey Chamber of Commerce, and that this matter was unrelated to Master Wu Hongxi, he did not have to be merciful.

Ou Yangming was surprised when he curbed his Military Fire after a brief moment.

[Item: Distinguished boots (Red)]

[Equivalent Rank: Ordinary Tool, Fine Grade Rank Four]

[Attributes: Toughness +19, Evasive +6 (Passive Attribute: A 10% success rate of natural evasion under an attack), Durability 19]

The success rate of a natural evasion would be 10% if there was only 1 point of Evasive attribute, but the success rate was only 15% even when six Evasive attributes were layered.

Sure enough, the Evasive attribute was distinctive.

Ou Yangming turned around and opened the door.

Duanmu Liang was surprised when he looked up.

"Master Ou, you're… Done?"

"You can inspect them." Ou Yangming handed the boots to him.

Duanmu Liang had already invited an appraiser here. Right after appraisal art was used, the shopkeeper was elated and excited.

"Six layers! The attribute was layered six times! Master Ou, you're too amazing!"

Duanmu Liang requested for the layering of five attributes, but he knew Master Jin Shengjie was the only person who could guarantee success. Hence, he was overjoyed when Ou Yangming managed to achieve six layers.

Ou Yangming chuckled and asked all of a sudden, "Shopkeeper Duanmu, why don't you attach the attributes to the boots separately?"

Duanmu Liang was struck dumb, but he answered carefully, "Master Ou, this attribute is rather strange. It can only be attached to a piece of equipment in an equipment set, and it'll be useless even if other pieces of equipment have it…"

Ou Yangming's eyelids twitched, and he ridiculed himself, 'There are indeed too many odd attributes in the world, so how can I be all-knowing…'

Fortunately, Duanmu Liang was sensible enough to change the topic. He said, "Master Ou, I have a few more tasks with me, and you'll be rewarded with substantial Prestige Points. If you…"

However, Ou Yangming waved his hand to cut off the shopkeeper. "I'm sorry, but I don't want to accept smithing tasks for now."

"Huh, what?" Duanmu Liang was puzzled. "Master Ou, did I offend you?"

"Do I look like I'm narrow-minded?" Ou Yangming was displeased.

Duanmu Liang smiled embarrassedly and told the young fellow, "Master Ou, if you need my help in whatever you're doing next, I'll be at your service."

Ou Yangming could not help but laugh. He glanced at the shopkeeper and stated, "Now, I'm going to do… What a man has to do!"

"What a man has to do?" Duanmu Liang was baffled. 'What is it?'

The young fellow turned around and walked with his chin up. He left the Smithing Hall with a cheerful smile, and a formidable aura was released as his footsteps became firmer.

Duanmu Liang followed him to the main street. He turned pale when he saw where Ou Yangming was heading, and he mumbled, "Im-pos-si-ble…"
