Chapter 704 (1/2)
Before Zhou Weiqing started making the Consolidated Equipment Scrolls, most of the people present did not believe the title he gave himself – the Fastest Consolidated Equipment Scroll Crafter in History. However, their doubts faded and disappeared as they watched Zhou Weiqing work his magic.
It had only just begun. As soon as the two Consolidated Equipment Scrolls lit up in success, Zhou Weiqing slid three feet away. With just a slight flick of his hand, the residue liquid from the Consolidating Ink disappeared from the Consolidating brush. The Consolidating Brush could be controlled with just a thought from the Consolidated Equipment Master. That was the advantage of a high-quality Consolidating Brush.
As the Consolidating Brush moved again, he opened two different Consolidating ink bottles again. His movement was fluid like water. Before the initial two lights from the successful creation of the Consolidated Equipment Scrolls faded away, another two lights shone out. The visual impact was just staggering. Everyone could see the two bright lights that lit up Shangguan Bing’er’s dark gold gigantic wings from left to right in a wave.
From left to right, Zhou Weiqing only used five minutes to complete fifty Consolidated Equipment Scrolls. As the last two lights shot up to the sky, he had already moved back to the spot he was initially standing at when he was making the first Consolidated Equipment Scroll. He waved his left hand and all the completed Consolidated Equipment Scrolls rolled into his hand from left to right. Shangguan Bing’er straightened her back as the dark gold light faded away.
The entire place was dead silent. As Zhou Weiqing looked around, he saw that most of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace’s powerhouses sitting below the stage looked shocked and their mouths were agape.
‘When was the last time we’ve seen such a terrifying Consolidated Equipment Master?’
That was right. ‘Terrifying’ was the only word that they could think of to describe Zhou Weiqing. Even the two God Tier Masters had never shown the audience such a performance before.
In the Heavenly Jewel Master’s eyes, God Tier Masters were mysterious and powerful. However, Zhou Weiqing had completely overturned what they knew. With such powerful ability, arrogance was no longer arrogance but instead, a showcase of his confidence and abilities. Zhou Weiqing had used his actions to prove himself. It also allowed the upper echelons of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace truly understand him for the first time.
The Heavenly Jewel Masters were not the only ones who were surprised. Even the two God Tier Masters standing behind Zhou Weiqing was similarly astounded. Meng Xing was still alright, but Nie Han’s eyes were wide open. He had managed to make fifty different types of Consolidated Equipment Scrolls with fifty different types of Consolidating Ink within such a short period of time. What kind of ability and foundation did he possess?
Initially, Nie Han had thought Zhou Weiqing only managed to successfully make the Consolidated Equipment Scroll due to sheer good luck and his shameless use of the Time Attribute. He had thought the young man had great potential, but his foundation might not be any better than an average Master Tier Consolidated Equipment Master.
However, what Zhou Weiqing had demonstrated earlier clearly showed that his prowess was not simply potential. The fact that he knew fifty types of Consolidating Inks for Master Tier Consolidated Equipment Scrolls as well as the methods to make the scrolls proved that he was a Consolidated Equipment Master that had inherited a particular legacy.
“Clap! Clap! Clap!” The applause began, but the first to clap was Dongfang, the Palace Master of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. It was only then that the Heavenly Jewel Masters from the Mysterious Heavenly Palace snapped out of their stupor. They followed the lead of the two God Tier Masters and four Supreme elders as they gave a thunderous round of applause. The way the four Supreme Masters looked at Zhou Weiqing became a lot friendlier. Zhou Weiqing’s age was also totally ignored by them. In this world, as long as one had the ability, nothing else mattered.
The Mysterious Heavenly Palace Master smiled as he said, “Astounding! I can only use the word ‘astounding’ to describe you, Honorary Master Zhou. I believe no one will doubt you anymore. From today onward, Honorary Master Zhou will be one of the pillars of the Mysterious Heavenly Palace. I’d like to announce that the banquet has officially begun.”
Because of Zhou Weiqing’s performance, the banquet’s participants became enthusiastic. The Mysterious Heavenly Palace Master walked over to Zhou Weiqing and toasted him. Following the Palace Master’s lead, more and more people came to toast Zhou Weiqing. Fortunately, the hierarchy in the Mysterious Heavenly Palace was very clear. The people who dared to toast him were at least Elders. The upper echelons who were sitting outside could only watch from far and raise their glasses.
Apart from Zhou Weiqing, Shangguan Bing’er’s abilities had also been acknowledged when she displayed her Seventh Jewel cultivation base and her Fourth Jewel Consolidating Equipment Master Assembly Wings set. As such, her status as Elder was established. Since she had already achieved the Seventh Jewel cultivation base at such a young age, becoming a Heavenly King Tier was definitely not wishful thinking. Moreover, her husband, Zhou Weiqing, was such a powerful God Tier Master.
Everyone that was present was a powerhouse of their generation. With their mighty Heavenly Energy, it would be difficult to get them drunk. That was why even though the banquet was boisterous, nobody was really drunk.
