"Of course!"
"Miss, as the head of the Myriad Weapons Alliance, your artifact refining skills must be far superior to mine. It is I who should be seeking your guidance!"
Ye Fei said humbly.
After a round of mutual compliments, the two headed to Feng Ruoqin's office together.
Unlike the Pavilion of Rare Treasures, the Myriad Weapons Alliance displayed only weapons and hidden weapons.
Ye Fei's gaze swept across the displays, and he found that there were indeed quite a few formidable weapons and hidden weapons.
However, the prices were astonishingly high!
Ordinary people simply could not afford them!
"Sir, this way, please!"
Feng Ruoqin's office was located on the far left of the first floor.
The interior was decorated in an extremely extravagant manner.
Ye Fei couldn't help but look around a few more times.
"How is it?"
"Isn't my office nice?"
"I've finally found a kindred spirit!"
Seeing Ye Fei's reaction, Feng Ruoqin immediately treated him as a friend!
"Immensely costly, immensely costly!"
Ye Fei exclaimed.
Indeed, everything in her office was extremely valuable.
"Sir, please have some tea!"
After admiring the scenery in her office, Ye Fei sat down and began to taste the tea.
"Excellent tea!"
Ye Fei's eyes lit up, and he said warmly.
"Of course, this is top-grade tea from my collection, and I don't offer it to just anyone!"
Seeing her pained expression, Ye Fei believed her words.
The two then exchanged names.
"You mentioned you had some questions to discuss. What exactly are they?"
Ye Fei got straight to the point.
Feng Ruoqin, who had been joking around, became serious as soon as the topic turned to business.
She took out a yellowed blueprint from her locked desk drawer.
"This is a problem that has been passed down in our Myriad Weapons Alliance since its founding."
"Over a thousand years have passed, and we still haven't found a way to solve it!"
"The artifact refining competition was merely to find an artifact refiner who could solve this blueprint!"
If it weren't for the ancestral instructions passed down, they would have stopped holding the competition long ago.
After all these years, they were on the verge of giving up, but no one had been able to solve this puzzle.
The yellowed paper clearly depicted a damaged weapon.
Ye Fei had a strange sense of familiarity.
It was as if he had seen it before.
"Let me think, I seem to have some ideas!"
"Don't disturb me!"
Ye Fei followed the sudden surge of inspiration and began to deduce in his mind.
This incomplete weapon diagram was extremely complex, and its complete restoration was no simple task.
It was Ye Fei's first time attempting to restore a weapon, and soon he was covered in sweat.
The mental strain was immense.
Feng Ruoqin, though anxious, dared not make a sound, fearing she might disturb his thoughts.
Ye Fei once again imagined himself as the damaged weapon.
Then, he meticulously traced every intricate pattern of the weapon.
His fingers moved in the air, following his thoughts.
As his gestures grew faster, Ye Fei suddenly shouted and opened his eyes wide.
"A brush!"
Feng Ruoqin, who was prepared, instinctively handed him the paper and brush.
With a swish, Ye Fei sat upright in the office chair and began to meticulously draw.
At the same time, his left hand continued to move unceasingly.
He was multitasking!
He was simultaneously deducing and sketching the progress of his deductions!
In an instant, Feng Ruoqin's scalp tingled!
This far exceeded her expectations!
At the same time, an unbelievable thought crossed her mind!
Could Ye Fei truly be the one to solve their Myriad Weapons Alliance's thousand-year-old puzzle?
Knock, knock, knock.
Feng Ruoqin became silently excited.
Her heart pounded like a drum.
As Ye Fei's speed increased, a delicate weapon diagram began to appear on the white paper!
As an artifact refiner, Feng Ruoqin could no longer contain herself and started deducing it in her mind.
Following Ye Fei's progress, Feng Ruoqin had also completed her deductions.
At this point, everything was perfect!
Now, Ye Fei had only the last third of the drawing left to complete.
This final third was also the most crucial part of the weapon.
Therefore, not the slightest carelessness was allowed.
Even Feng Ruoqin by his side was filled with tension.
Her breathing became shallow.
Ye Fei had poured all his focus into it. Especially as he continued to complete the weapon diagram, many new ideas began to form in his mind.
Problems that had puzzled him for so long now had answers.
Finally, under Feng Ruoqin's anxious yet expectant gaze, Ye Fei made the last stroke.
"Completed!"
"Take a look and see if there are any errors!"
Ye Fei waved his hand and handed the white paper back to Feng Ruoqin.
"Yes, yes, I'll verify it now!"
Feng Ruoqin exclaimed with overwhelming joy.
Taking the white paper, Feng Ruoqin regained her previous serious demeanor and began to deduce and calculate on another piece of paper.
Perhaps worried that her own verification might not be precise enough, she asked for Ye Fei's consent and immediately summoned several other elders.
When the three elders entered, Feng Ruoqin quickly called out.
"Three elders, come and verify this with me!"
"I need your three elders' help!"
The three elders who entered were bewildered, especially when they saw Ye Fei sitting there leisurely drinking tea.
It was then that the three remembered, wasn't this the young man who had won first place in the competition?
They had initially wanted to chat with him, but he had disappeared in the blink of an eye, so they had to give up.
Therefore, the three elders were very happy to see Ye Fei at this moment.
"Three elders, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and help me!"
Seeing their dazed expressions, Feng Ruoqin shouted directly.
Under this powerful roar, the three elders finally resumed their solemn demeanor.
"Come and verify this with me!"
"See if there are any errors in this weapon diagram."
After giving her instructions, Feng Ruoqin plunged back into her work.
The three elders then shifted their attention to the white paper.
Whoa!
Upon seeing it, they were astonished!
The three of them were immediately stunned!
The weapon diagram had been completed?
The three exchanged glances, and then they too began to deduce in their minds.
Suddenly, the only sound in the office was the rustling of paper.
Ye Fei was, of course, supremely confident in his work. In his opinion, there were no errors whatsoever.
