Chapter 1076: Chapter 588 Chapter 1076: Chapter 588 Bian Jingchun had felt overshadowed by Chen Mobai since they had met; after the latter achieved Core Formation, she thought she would never be able to accomplish anything impressive in front of him in this lifetime.

Unexpectedly, Chen Mobai suddenly decided to learn artifact refining, and even sought her own teacher for guidance.

When Hong Mengkui called, she was just making tea nearby. After listening, she couldn’t help but send a text filled with laughter.

[What rank of artifact refiner are you, Senior Sister?]

Chen Mobai quickly texted back.

[I’m just Rank-3, I guess!]

Bian Jingchun, typing away, felt her hands almost floating. As the top graduate of the Dance Tool Dao Academy, and with the guidance of the artifact refining master Hong Mengkui, she passed the Rank-3 professional assessment quite easily.

[Only Rank-3?]

This text from Chen Mobai made Bian Jingchun’s eyes widen, feeling slightly aggrieved as her fingers danced across the keyboard with a lengthy reply.

[What do you mean only Rank-3? As a Foundation Establishment Practitioner, Rank-3 is already the pinnacle of my profession. Moreover, I passed the exam within two years after graduating. In the whole Immortal Gate, there aren’t many who can acquire this certificate before the age of thirty. In the Artifact Refiners Association, I am praised as a star of the future. As long as I achieve Core Formation, Rank-4 is within reach…]

[Oh, you haven’t formed your core yet!]

Receiving this reply from Chen Mobai, Bian Jingchun’s fist clenched tight, but she found no angle to rebut and could only retreat.

[Junior Brother, I have some matters to attend to here and will have to chat another time when I’m free.]

Looking at the message from Bian Jingchun, Chen Mobai couldn’t help the smile creeping at the corners of his mouth.

Only in the Immortal Gate would he find friends with whom he could relax and be at ease.

In the following time, Chen Mobai began to study artifact refining knowledge on his own.

With his realm of Core Formation, he had mastered the entire framework of Immortal Gate artifact refining and had it all firmly etched in his mind within half a year’s study of the Rank-1 and Rank-2 textbooks.

During this period, naturally, there were some professional questions for which he sought advice from insiders.

Since these were all rather simple, Chen Mobai didn’t bother the retired elder Hong Mengkui, but instead asked his Senior Sister, Bian Jingchun, who promptly answered all his inquiries.

Bian Jingchun even shared this matter on her circle of friends, boasting about being able to guide someone with Qualification of Deification, drawing endless admiration from her close girlfriends.

[This is knowledge related to Rank-3, and I can only share my own opinions on it. You might want to consult Elder Hong about this question later.]

When Chen Mobai called to ask for advice again that day, she became rather cautious.

She couldn’t let her own insufficient level misguide someone with Qualification of Deification!

After ending their exchange, the answer Chen Mobai got from consulting Hong Mengkui was not much different from what Bian Jingchun had told him.

However, Hong Mengkui’s explanation tended to focus more on the macro aspects, considering the future leveling up possibilities of a Magic Artifact, overall balance, and so forth, while Bian Jingchun would give standard answers based on the requirements of the question.

But the fact that Bian Jingchun could answer every question was already proof of her profound expertise on the path of artifact refining.

Chen Mobai: [Senior Sister truly deserves to be the top graduate of the Daoist Academy. Once Elder Hong and Elder Deng and the others retire, it will be you carrying the banner of the Dao Academy’s artifact refining!]

Bian Jingchun: [Please, no, there’s a junior in the Dao Academy with even more exceptional talent in artifact refining than me; I expect I’ll only be holding a deputy flag.]

Chen Mobai: [Who is that?]

Bian Jingchun: [Your good friend!]

Chen Mobai was truly unaware of Ming Yuhua’s standing within the artifact refining industry.

However, upon reflection, the ability to pass the Rank-3 assessment during the school period indicates a talent and flair indeed superior to Bian Jingchun!

If it wasn’t for the utterly astounding quality of the students from the 5012 batch, aside from him with his Qualification of Deification and Zhongli Tianyu from Divine Descendants, Ming Yuhua, as the top student of the Refining Implement Department, would rightly be the leader of their student cohort.

After all, the Dance Tool Dao Academy’s artifact refining major is unquestionably number one in the Immortal Gate.

Unfortunately, the good friend is now too busy.

In the midst of these reflections, Chen Mobai had self-studied for a year at the Immortal Gate and finally grasped every aspect of refining a Lifespan Artifact.

Since he wasn’t planning to take the Rank-3 artifact refiner’s exam, after completing the study of the Rank-1 and Rank-2 artifact refining foundational framework, he just needed to focus on this content.

Hong Mengkui, who checked his progress from time to time, was puzzled about this, but Chen Mobai already had an excuse ready, saying it was to prepare for refining the Primordial Yang Set in the future.

[Primordial Yang Set, huh… Given that you formed your core early and have plenty of time, you can indeed pursue that. But as for Magic Artifacts, one or two pieces are usually sufficient. If you’re truly idle, you might as well attempt “The Union of Differences,” given that many Fourth and Fifth Rank Artifacts are lying idle within the Immortal Gate.] Hong Mengkui offered some gentle advice, as even being an Artifact Refining master of the Dance Tool Dao Academy, his approach to artifact refining was to save effort whenever possible. However, his subsequent remark stirred Chen Mobai, [It’s a pity that the Primordial Yang Set belongs to Pure Yang Academy, and with Nangong Xuanyu there. But with the influence of our Dance Tool Dao Academy, if the president is willing to intervene, it wouldn’t be impossible to obtain one or two pieces for you.]

It may be a peaceful era in the Immortal Gate now, but in a few decades, war might break out, and the Immortal Gate would certainly unseal the top-ranked artifacts at that time.
