Time flew by, and soon Yang Pingan had spent four years at Nuoding Primary School.
After four years of diligent cultivation and blacksmithing, his body underwent powerful changes in all aspects.
Yang Pingan was now ten years old, a fourth-grade student, but his height had already reached 1.5 meters.
Although he didn’t look like a handsome young boy, the lines on his face were much clearer, making him appear resolute.
Perhaps due to long-term blacksmithing, Yang Pingan’s limbs possessed immense strength, his arms were mostly muscle, and he didn’t even look much like a child.
In Douluo Continent, the average height of people is generally taller than on Earth, and Spirit Masters are even taller than ordinary people.
Yang Pingan, at 1.5 meters, was already one of the tallest students in the entire Nuoding Primary School.
After these four years of blacksmithing, Yang Pingan had become one of the best blacksmiths in the Blacksmith Shop, no weaker than the boss Iron Forest and the master Lin Da Niu.
His forging speed, in particular, was even faster than theirs.
Especially during these four years, Yang Pingan began to slowly learn and use the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.
Based on the original text’s description, the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method is an application of leveraging force, especially utilizing the body’s strength to its utmost.
Just as the original text stated: ‘Humans have three hearts.
Besides the original heart, the muscles in a person’s two calves are the second and third hearts.
If a person wants to unleash all their strength, it must be the result of all three hearts operating simultaneously.
The three hearts are the starting point for exerting force.
When the heart in the chest beats rapidly, force is generated from the calves, transmitted upwards to the thighs, through the waist, back, and arms, finally being released.
This is a full-strength strike.
The heart generates force, and the waist acts as the axis.’
These concepts, while seemingly simple, are the foundation and essence of the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.
And all of this did not involve the use of Soul Power, but pure physical strength.
Over these four years, through slow exploration, Yang Pingan was able to use the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method for basic forging.
Of course, this could only be used for forging; since his Spirit was not the Clear Sky Hammer, it couldn’t be used for combat.
After all, the Clear Sky Sect’s Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method was developed by countless generations of experts.
Moreover, Yang Pingan had not undergone systematic training in the hammer method; his so-called Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method was discovered during the blacksmithing process, or rather, it was just a simple method of leveraging force.
His use of this hammer method for forging seemed a bit out of place; even if the Clear Sky Sect’s ancestors were to see it, they probably wouldn’t see any connection between this and the Clear Sky Sect’s Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method.
However, Yang Pingan was confident that through long-term mastery of the pseudo-Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method, his application of physical strength would become even more proficient, ultimately maximizing his physical potential and applying all of this to his combat power.
Every day after forging, it felt like a physical trial, especially after using the leveraging force of the pseudo-Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method, all the muscles in his body were sore, and meditation would also be relatively more effective.
After four years of hard training, Yang Pingan’s Soul Power had only reached level eight.
It would probably take more than a year to break through to level ten and truly become a Spirit Master.
This was with Yang Pingan meditating tirelessly every night, basically never interrupting his meditation for a single day, except for studying and forging.
For the current Yang Pingan, the work at the Blacksmith Shop was no longer simple forging, nor was it merely about earning money; it was more like a physical tempering.
This high-intensity tempering was much better than weighted running.
Since becoming a true blacksmith, especially in the past year, Yang Pingan would try his best to improve his living conditions.
Besides eating at the Blacksmith Shop, he would occasionally eat some high-energy foods, including various meats.
In the past year, with Yang Pingan’s significantly improved work efficiency, he earned five or more silver coins a month, sometimes even eight.
Yang Pingan himself was not stingy, trying his best to buy wild chickens, wild rabbits, and the like, at least to ensure the strength of his body’s vital energy and blood, and to ensure he didn’t lack nutrition during his growth.
The Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method has a great advantage: through the use of leveraging force, one can exert their strength to the extreme, and physical training can also reach its maximum.
After blacksmithing with almost extreme training, the speed of meditation would also be relatively much faster.
It was a pity that he still didn’t have enough money, nor did he have a prescription for a medicinal bath; otherwise, his improvement speed should be even faster.
Every morning when Yang Pingan arrived at the Blacksmith Shop, the first thing he would do was place the Purple Gold Mastiff on an unoccupied forging platform.
The other blacksmiths were a bit surprised at first, but over time, they got used to it.
They even liked to tease the Purple Gold Mastiff in their free time.
It was a pity that the Purple Gold Mastiff mostly slept.
When it occasionally opened its eyes, they were half-closed, and it always ignored the other blacksmiths’ teasing.
At most, it would half-open its eyes and sometimes let out a few ‘ao’ calls.
This sound was a bit like a dog’s bark and even more like a wolf’s howl; in any case, it definitely didn’t sound like a pig’s squeal.
Perhaps due to long-term exposure to this rich Gold Attribute environment, the Purple Gold Mastiff’s aura had actually become a little stronger than when it first appeared.
Although still very weak, Yang Pingan felt that the energy consumed each time he summoned the Purple Gold Mastiff had increased slightly.
As for whether the Purple Gold Mastiff was hungry, Yang Pingan had always considered it.
Perhaps because it stayed in the Blacksmith Shop for a long time, the Purple Gold Mastiff was actually able to absorb Gold Attribute energy without feeling hungry.
Even if he occasionally felt waves of hunger from the Purple Gold Mastiff, Yang Pingan would only recall the Purple Gold Mastiff into his body, letting it absorb energy from his body, and would absolutely not feed it any food.
Feeding the Purple Gold Mastiff white radishes, like Yu Xiaogang did, was purely harmful to the Purple Gold Mastiff.
With the Purple Gold Mastiff’s Golden Holy Dragon bloodline, eating such vegetarian food was purely detrimental to it.
If it truly wanted to eat, it absolutely needed to be fed the meat of a Spirit Beast with Dragon bloodline, or at the very least, the meat of a Spirit Beast with Gold Attribute bloodline.
According to the original text, Spirits also have thoughts and souls; they can even be said to be living beings.
For any living being, there is a bloodline.
For the Purple Gold Mastiff, with such a noble bloodline, making it eat white radishes is like making a Golden Holy Dragon eat white radishes.
While it might produce a flatulent effect, it is definitely not worth the gain.
