The judge chuckled to himself .
Molten Ancient Rock was actually easier to differentiate than the materials other people had received . Su Mo had not only given the wrong answer but argued that his answer was correct!
It was absolutely ridiculous!
“No, my answer is definitely right!” Su Mo said unwaveringly . He believed what was written in Ou Lianzi's craftsmanship Legacy to be true .
The craftsmanship of an Imperial Craftsman was unfathomably skilled . He would definitely not make such an elementary mistake .
The judge was speechless . He had arbitrated years of Craftsmanship Contests and never met such a shameless person .
He pondered and turned to those who had passed the test . “Anyone of you who knows the purpose of Molten Ancient Rock, please tell him the correct answer . ”
The judge did not give the correct answer, but instead, let others tell him, so that Su Mo would be convinced .
“Su Mo, I'll tell you the correct answer,” Sikong Yan chuckled . He stepped forward and said in a loud clear voice, “The real application of Molten Ancient Rock is to strengthen the power of fire property weapons . ”
Sikong Yan had a Fire Spiritual Body and often refined fire property weapons . He used Molten Ancient Rock frequently, hence, he naturally understood its applications .
“Sikong Yan is right!”
“Yes, that's what Molten Ancient Rock is used for . ”
“Su Mo, just accept that you're wrong . Stop importuning and making a fool of yourself!”
Many others spoke out, agreeing with Sikong Yan's answer .
The judge laughed coldly . “Su Mo, did you hear that? If you continue to importune, there'll be consequences . ”
He knew who Su Mo was, but everyone was treated the same in the eyes of the Sky-sea Pavilion .
“Your answers are all wrong . Mine is the right one . ” Su Mo once again said assuredly .
Everyone was exasperated and speechless, including Sikong Yan, participating craftsmen, and the audience in the spectators stand .
“Hahahaha!”
In the spectators stands, Nie Yu laughed out so loudly that his laughter could be heard throughout the entire arena .
He pointed at Su Mo and said with roaring laughter, “Su Mo, you're so shameless! You answered wrong and were eliminated, but you won't accept your failure and are still importuning . This is really an eye-opener for me! Hahaha!”
Nie Yu was full of sarcasm . He had never expected Su Mo to be such a sore loser!
Su Mo remained calm and ignored Nie Yu . He continued to look at the judge silently .
The judge's face darkened and flashed with anger . He was fed up with Su Mo's unreasonable attitude .
Just as he was about to speak, Su Mo spoke again, “It's true that Molten Ancient Rock can strengthen the power of fire property weapons . However, it's main application is to stabilize and reinforce the Fire-spirit Iron . ”
He continued to speak plainly, “Fire-spirit Iron is the main material in forging fire property weapons . Isn't it true that all fire property weapons with Molten Ancient Rock require Fire-spirit Iron?”
Everyone was shocked by Su Mo's words . He was actually giving an accurate detailed description about how to forge weapons .
Indeed, all weapons that used Molten Ancient Rock needed to be forged with Fire-spirit Iron .
However, even so, it did not prove that Molten Ancient Rock's application was to stabilize Fire-spirit Iron!
This reasoning was too far-fetched!
At this moment, the Horse-faced Elder who was sitting in the judge's seat and pretending to be asleep, suddenly opened his eyes, revealing a pondering expression .
“Humph! Stop arguing!” The judge yelled coldly . “You've been eliminated . Please leave immediately!”
He would not be fooled by Su Mo's words; he ordered him to leave .
Su Mo sighed . Although he knew he was right, there was nothing he could do if no one believed him .
“I didn't expect the Sky-sea Pavilion's craftsmen to be so low standard . In this case, I'm done with the Craftsmanship Contest!”
Su Mo shook his head and headed toward the gate .
He did not want to stay here . “What kind of Craftsmanship Contest is this? Even the judges' levels are so low . What's the point in participating?”
The judge smiled coldly and secretly mocked Su Mo's lousy temperament . “He is actually mocking the skill of Sky-sea Pavilion's craftsmen after being eliminated!”
This kind of temperament truly left him speechless .
At this moment, countless people were shaking their heads silently, condemning Su Mo's actions .
So what if he was a genius?
He was wrong and yet, he could not admit his mistake!
Just as he was about to walk through the gate, an elderly voice was heard . “Su Mo passes round one . ”
Everyone was shocked upon hearing this and turned toward the speaker .
Then, they were stunned even further .
The person who had spoken was the Horse-faced Elder, respected as the Upper King Craftsman .
Su Mo stopped and turned to look at the Horse-faced Elder .
“Elder Shan… this?” The judge looked confused .
Was Su Mo actually right?
Was everyone else wrong?
Otherwise, why would Elder Shan say that Su Mo had passed?
The Horse-faced Elder pondered slightly, then gazed out at everyone, saying, “Molten Ancient Rock indeed stabilizes and reinforces the Fire-spirit Iron . ”
HUH!
Everyone stood agape . It really could stabilize and reinforce Fire-spirit Iron?
Their understanding was that Molten Ancient Rock could only strengthen the power of fire property weapons!
If anyone else had said this, no one would have believed him .
However, the Horse-faced Elder was a Upper King Craftsman . No one could challenge him!
“Um… Elder Shan, everyone knows that Molten Ancient Rock can only strengthen the power of fire property . ”
The middle-aged judge looked extremely upset . As the arbitrator of this competition, he felt disgraced that his answer was being denied .
The Horse-faced Elder glanced at the judge . “Zhou, this is a misconception . It is normal to forge weapons according to the craft formulas and think that Molten Ancient Rock can only strengthen the power of the fire property . But you have never wondered why Molten Ancient Rock is always used together with Fire-spirit Iron . ”
He sighed, then looked at Su Mo . “I never realized this either, but upon hearing what Su Mo said, I've also pondered upon it . Molten Ancient Rock is indeed used to stabilize and reinforce Fire-spirit Iron . ”
The judge was completely shocked!
All the participating craftsmen were shocked!
The entire audience was shocked!
Su Mo was right, and everyone else was wrong . Even the judge was not as knowledgeable as Su Mo!
