Despite their simple and honest appearances, they acted upon one uniform law. That was, they would try endless means or even violate the wills of their host family to implement all orders from the Dwarf Elder Council after they became retinue members in other tribes.
To take this type of person as his retinue wasn’t of any help. Instead, Qian Jin had to watch out for whether he would be trapped or betrayed by this Dwarf from time to time.
For the benefits of the entire tribe, Dwarf Elder Council might easily and calmly sell others out. Strong as he was in personal charisma, Emperor Zence Dragon, the founder of Zence Empire, was nearly killed in a battle by the betrayal of his Dwarf ally.
Qian Jin didn’t deem himself strong enough to rival Emperor Zence Dragon who was in the peak state of spiritual power, stamina, and personal charisma.
Dorata looked at Qian Jin dumbfounded, feeling bemused as to why this young warrior changed the topic suddenly. He nodded his head unconsciously.
“I’m in need of a batch of materials. If you can help me get them, I will consider having another bet with you.” Qian Jin started to list the materials regardless of Dorata’s reaction. “Millennium Volcano Ice-heart Stone, Undersea Flame Stone, Warrior Soul Iron, Life-death Wood, Illuminous Heart Iron, Volcano Kernel, Ghost Snake Oil…”
Dorata replaced his blank look with a shocked one. Was this young person running a blacksmith shop at home? How could he name hundreds of forging materials at one time without much consideration or hesitation? Among them, Volcano Kernel was called the never-failing flame, which could give out the purest heat after being acquired and placed into a fireplace.
In respect of forging, to have Volcano Kernel paired up with Life-death Wood and Ghost Snake Oil was a luxury for forging soul weapons… or even the legendary Saint Weapons.
Many of these materials were beyond the knowledge of Dorata. He had to look up in the literature kept by Dwarf Elder Council to see whether the materials mentioned by Qian Jin were available anywhere in this world.
“You… you…”
Dorata expression changed from one of shock to one of excitement. “I don’t think Dwarf Elder Council is able to get the things you want. If you’re afraid of betting with me, you can directly refuse.”
“You may not get all of them necessarily. A small piece or parcel of them is okay. If I think they are valuable, I will also take the bet with you.” Qian Jin shrugged his shoulders. “I wonder if you desire my [Fury Lotus Fighting Technique] to help you condense the warrior soul, right? You may also be aware of the meaning of condensing warrior soul to the Golden Warrior Heart Warriors. Alright. If you feel that you have narrow chances of defeating me…”
Qian Jin chuckled and looked forward to the fight: “You can ask the strongest blacksmith in your tribe to make the bet with me. In case I lose, I will send you the Fury Lotus Fighting Technique. But if I win…you need to get all those mentioned materials.”
Watching Qian Jin turning away, Dorata couldn’t help lamenting on the appalling observation abilities of this young person, who successfully grasped Dorata’s intention of seizing the Fury Lotus Fighting Technique instead of taking back the [Avatar].
A terrific young person with horrible observing abilities and combat power. Dorata twisted his eyebrows harder and harder. Just now when this young boy mentioned betting with the strongest blacksmith in the Dwarfs’ tribe, he looked so excited and eager. It was the typical look of a warrior in the face of a challenge.
Abnormal. Dorata couldn’t believe that this young person possessed such strong forging abilities. Even if he started learning to forge from the time he was conceived, by now he had at most been into that for some twenty years’ time.
Twenty years’ time was way too fleeting for a supreme master who dedicated his life to forging. As the grandest Forge Master in the Dwarfs, and the most ingenious blacksmith in the Brad Family through the ages, Brad Dusk started learning to forge in his juvenile period and ascended to the rank of Forge Grandmaster in his thirties, becoming the first creature to reach the grandmaster level in the past one thousand years.
Where did his confidence come from? Gazing at Qian Jin’s departing figure, Dorata couldn’t understand why this boy looked so confident about defeating the strongest blacksmith recognized by humans, demons, and Barbarians to get all his required materials.
“This boy…”
Seeing Qian Jin turning away, Te Jofy couldn’t help shaking his head. At no point had he thought about such a result from Qian Jin’s attending the bandit training session. Within less than half a day’s time, he unexpectedly defeated all other attendees.

To defeat a hundred people over half a day’s time entailed not only strong combat power but also compelling stamina. Anyone else trying to do what he had done just now would inevitably feel desperately exhausted. But Qian Jin didn’t take on the worn and weary state at all.
“What an interesting youngster… he always catches people by surprise.” Bhang Wusheng showed up behind Te Jofy and said faintly, “Even if you didn’t warn him in advance, he would do so. This is really a man of secrets.”
“Yeah. A man of secrets.” Te Jofy nodded his head repeatedly. “Given his supreme warrior heart and strong combat power, he managed to suppress the Golden Warrior Heart Warriors and break through the [Avatar] held by Dorata. What terrific combat power he possesses! The power he has transcends not only one level but an entire realm. Even the bloodline warriors…”
Te Jofy stopped here as it was unnecessary to say anything more. What Qian Jin had achieved was against common sense. To transcend a level might be possible for a small number of bloodline warriors, but to surpass a realm was something unthinkable.
“Hehe…”Bhang Wusheng released a faint smile, screwed his lips in a mesmerizing way and kept shaking his head. “When I said secrets, I didn’t merely refer to his combat power, but his character as a whole. He gave me the constant feeling that he would live an upright life before his body turned into ashes. What trump card does he reserve that makes him so courageous? Or he doesn’t, in fact, have any trump cards but still endeavors to make this life an unbending one?”
Te Jofy looked at Bhang Wusheng in surprise. Seldom would this bandit king speak of people like this and his praise of Qian Jin was the highest among all.
“Yep. He is a real man.”Bhang Wusheng smiled faintly. “He might present splendid prospects in the future, in case he isn’t killed in a war. However… he hasn’t activated the bloodline power. I’m not sure what secret scrolls he borrowed to procure the current smashing combat power, but I don’t think of them as good approaches. It’s a little reckless for him to have done so.”
Secret scrolls. Hearing this, Te Jofy blinked. The secret scrolls and fighting techniques adopted by warriors were as immense as the stars in the sky. And to surpass the bloodline warriors, ordinary warriors had developed all kinds of fighting techniques. Among them, Avatar was a mild type.
There were a lot of secret scrolls that were obtained at the cost of bodily injuries or even the shortening one’s lifespan so as to improve the combat power in the shortest time.
Castration. As far as Te Jofy was concerned, there was a special supreme-leveled warrior power cultivation method of the Demons acquired by castrating the genitals of a man to open up all one hundred and seven energy connections. In doing so, the cultivator would become androgynous.
Qian Jin’s growth speed in warrior power was higher than that of all ordinary warriors. Calculated as per conventional ways, the cost he had paid must be unbelievably tremendous, and might be even more horrible than castration.
“What a pity…what a shame…” Bhang Wusheng kept shaking his head while sighing. “What a pity that he hasn’t activated the bloodline power. However, he may sooner or later get his own standing foot among warriors of his generation.”
Bhang Wusheng left together with Te Jofy while Dorata was standing still in the yard, indulged in what Qian Jin had said upon departure. “Was that [Fury Lotus Fighting Technique]? As long as I obtained that fighting technique, I would be able to condense a warrior soul and even reach the saint level in the future. As long as I defeat him… defeat him in forging.”
“As long as I defeated him, I would make a large profit.” Dorata clenched his fists firmly, feeling very excited. As long as he defeated Qian Jin and got the [Fury Lotus Fighting Technique], he could try condensing the warrior soul. By contrast, Qian Jin could do nothing with the [Avatar] as it was exclusively to the Dwarfs.
To make the bet with Qian Jin by himself? Dorata loosened his clenched fists, knowing that he had narrows chances of defeating Qian Jin, who was in a smashing aura and state. In this case, he might seek help with Grandmaster Brad Dusk, the number one forge master in this world.
“So long as I could ask Grandmaster Brad Dusk to join this bet, I will win the game.” Dorata waved his fists in the air smilingly. “I wonder if Qian Jin has already found out that the fighting technique he grasped away from me is something useless for him.”
“[Avatar]…” Qian Jin locked himself in the room while reading the training scroll of [Avatar]. Every now and then, he would nod his head, lamenting that the Dwarfs were a species full of inspiration in that they had sheer diligence and conscience to study other species.
Due to the short and fat build, the Dwarfs would be in a disadvantageous position when fighting with other species, thus the ancestors of the Dwarfs racked their mind to develop a special fighting technique to relieve this pain, which not only made up for their physical deficiencies but also achieved a simulated warrior soul by conducting a peculiar pestering sequence with the warrior power.
Qian Jin had a quick look at the training scroll of [Avatar] and grasped the basics of the way to cultivate this technique, which made him smile. At this moment, he eventually got through the cause for Dorata’s desire for betting with him. To some extent, this fighting technique was of the bloodline fighting technique type and couldn’t be cultivated by people other than the Dwarfs.
“Pity… what a pity.” Qian Jin shook his head and uttered a bitter smile. “This Dwarf planned to trick me. But he doesn’t know that my Wind and Cloud Warrior Power has special abilities.”
