Blacksmith: You Are Making Mjolnir For The Forging Exam?
Chapter 390 - 390 A Sleepless Night

390 A Sleepless Night

The new messages that appeared after each refresh showed that everyone was full of anticipation for this year’s conference.

At the same time, the names of the five people from White River were known to most people in one night.

They became a symbol of hope that many people talked about!

This was because White River’s current overall strength was too low in the Nine Provinces, and very few people from White River had made the top 10 list in the past years.

!!

Therefore, the citizens of White River were eager to see someone from their province appear in the top 10 during the conference!

This was destined to be a sleepless night for some. Whether it was ordinary folks who were worried about the conference or the government officials of various provinces, they were all filled with anticipation and excitement.

Even Wu Mo, who had always been calm and indifferent to fame and fortune, could not sleep as he lay on the bed.

They would be leaving for the Red Heart province tomorrow, and they would officially participate in the exchange conference the day after.

To him, the exchange conference was like a fork in his life. A good outcome and a bad one represented different paths.

His placement in the top 10 during the final judging of the conference would have a huge impact on his future development.

Compared to the conference that was filled with geniuses, the Divine Arms Academy’s graduation assessment a year ago seemed to be of little importance.

“Forget it, I don’t want to think about it too much. As long as I try my best, I shouldn’t have many regrets regardless of the end result.”

He turned over on his bed. Looking at the silver moonlight shining in through the gap in the curtain, he gradually forgot about his anxiety.

When he was forging Thor’s hammer, he had to face the pressure of dropping out of school.

When he was developing the Three-dimensional Maneuver Gear some time ago, he faced the pressure of a fleeting opportunity.

Ever since he left school, he had more or less faced various kinds of pressure every day.

His heart had been trained to be much tougher.

Even if the road was filled with difficulties, he could still protect his heart and take each step.

Wu Mo slowly closed his eyes as he relaxed his mind. Feeling the fatigue coming from all directions, he soon fell into a deep sleep.

It was already late at night, but many people in the Research Department still had their tired eyes open. They were trying their best to work hard.

The night was silent, but the lights from the research building near the villa constantly dispelled the surrounding darkness.𝑖𝑛𝐧𝓻e𝒶𝗱. c𝚘𝙢

At this moment, Academician Xu and several other core members of the Research Department were still discussing and preparing for the exchange conference.

The other invited blacksmith, Xu Wanqing, was still practicing as well. She went through everything from drawing designs to smelting materials and strengthening.

Xu Wanqing did not feel that it was enough even if she practiced 10 or 100 times.

She would face genius blacksmiths from Red Heart, Orange Light, and other powerful provinces at the conference.

Those people were generally one rank higher than her, and six-star blacksmiths were even more common at the conference.

Compared to the lucky ones who had been fed by their province’s rich resources, they were much more powerful.

Her strength was superior to that of her peers in the White River province, but it might not be enough at the conference.

Therefore, only by training her skills to the extreme could Xu Wanqing possibly defeat her opponent in the first two rounds.

The gap in spirit power between the two was even.

Therefore, three months ago, Xu Wanqing had started practicing her forging techniques and skills under her father’s guidance.

She hoped to enter the final top 10 by taking a risk.

However, the closer they got to the conference, the more pressure Xu Wanqing felt.

Whether it was to bring glory to the White River province or to impress her father, she really wanted to enter the top 10.

However, her father’s expectant gaze, the hopes of her peers, and the nurturing of the White River province made it difficult for her to breathe.

She even felt that if she did not end up in the top 10, the sky would fall.

Her hand shook slightly as she held the casting pen. Xu Wanqing gritted her teeth, and her eyes gradually trembled.

“There are less than two days left. All my efforts and hard work have been worth it!”

Xu Wanqing kept encouraging herself in her heart. She still wanted to do something and continue to practice.

But suddenly, a cough came from the door, and the courage that she had mustered up with great difficulty crumbled again.

She subconsciously turned around and saw her father standing outside the private forging room’s half-closed door.

Under the moonlight, her father’s mottled hair looked even more frosty, like he was an old man in his twilight years. His face had lost some of the seriousness and solemnity he had during the day.

“Father, it’s so late, why aren’t you asleep yet?”

Xu Wanqing’s eyes were evasive. She was afraid that her father would be worried, so she immediately made up an excuse, “I… I’m here to check my equipment for the competition. I’m going to sleep soon.”

His daughter’s obviously lame excuse did not escape his eyes.

He slowly pushed the door open and walked in. With a kind face, he patted his daughter’s shoulder and said in a gentle voice, “Wanqing, don’t pressure yourself too much. Although I want you to enter the top 10, do you think I’ll put the blame of you even if you come in last?

“I’ve always told you that as long as you work hard, everything will be worth it. Compared to the young blacksmiths from the stronger provinces, the people from the White River province are already at a disadvantage. It won’t be a surprise if we don’t enter the top 10. It’s not a problem of your skills!”

She listened to her father’s sincere words and looked at his profound eyes that were filled with heartache.

Xu Wanqing’s heart seemed to released a heavy burden, and she suddenly felt a lot more relaxed.

“I’m already a grownup, but I’m still making you worry about me every day. I’m such a horrible daughter.”

She appeared a little depressed, but the obsession to be in the top 10 had left her heart.

Just as her father had said, even if she was ranked last on the list, his love for her would never fade.

The White River province’s Military Department had been training her. Even if she did not live up to their expectations and disappointed her peers, as long as she worked hard, everything would be fine.

“Hehe, in my eyes, no matter how old you are and how great your achievements are, you’re still a child. Alright, it’s already so late, and it’s getting cold. You should rest early.”

...

Xu Wuyue heaved a sigh of relief when he saw his daughter’s relieved expression.

He gave her a reminder with a doting expression and even smiled as he touched his daughter’s nose.

“I know, Father. I didn’t expect you to be up so late either. I guess you’re still busy completing tasks from your higher-ups.”
