"A genius capable of earning Zhen Hua's admiration must possess extraordinary forging talent, and with such innate abilities..."
"If he's also a Mecha Designer, that would be truly remarkable."
Beneath Mu Ye's calm expression lay intense excitement. He couldn't help thinking that such talent was absolutely worthy of his attention.
Even he had to admit—this was indeed the genius Zhen Hua had recognized!
"I am indeed a Purple-level Mecha Master."
Tang Wulin responded with a smile, answering truthfully.
"Purple-level Mecha Master."
Mu Ye's face flickered with surprise. He'd already reached Purple-level? Based on his observations, this young man couldn't be older than fourteen!
A Soul Ancestor in cultivation, Purple-level Mecha Master, and a top-tier Forging Master—
"Zhen Hua."
"What level Forging Master is Wu Lin again? Seventh-level?"
Mu Ye turned to Zhen Hua, unable to resist asking.
"Seventh-level is his Brother. Wu Lin is a sixth-level Forging Grandmaster."
Zhen Hua's tone remained composed, as if stating the most ordinary fact. After all, among the Forging Association's geniuses, this only ranked second—the top spot belonged to someone else.
Yet despite this, the corners of his lips stubbornly refused to settle, precisely because Mu Ye's expression had already shifted to astonishment.
A sixth-level Forging Grandmaster at such a young age?!
Was this even human?
Especially while also diverting focus to become a Purple-level Mecha Master capable of crafting Purple-level Mecha. Just how formidable would his future become...
"Senior, there's a misunderstanding!"
Noticing Mu Ye's increasingly fervent gaze, Tang Wulin suddenly realized something and hastily shook his head with an amused yet exasperated expression.
He'd figured it out—this senior assumed he'd built the Mecha himself. How could that be possible!
"My Mecha wasn't created by me as you might expect, but by my Brother."
"To be precise, I simply enjoy piloting Mecha, but when it comes to actual construction and design..."
"I can do neither."
Tang Wulin hurriedly clarified, anxious to dispel any notion that he was some all-rounder like his Brother—no, that all-around genius.
Beyond wielding a hammer in forging, his accomplishments in other fields were minimal, let alone Mecha.
"Ah?"
"So your Brother made it?"
Mu Ye's brows furrowed instantly, his earlier enthusiasm deflating considerably. So all this excitement...
The boy was just a Mecha pilot! That hardly qualified as a Mecha Designer.
"Yes, my Brother is a Seventh-Level Mecha Master, and my Mecha was crafted by him."
Tang Wulin nodded frankly.
"Mu Ye, that's indeed the case."
"Wu Lin is purely a Forging Master, unlike his Brother—a true genius who excels not only in forging but also stands as a top-tier Mecha Designer. The very one I wanted you to meet—"
"A genuine prodigy. Even Wu Lin pales in comparison, just as I mentioned before."
Zhen Hua smiled faintly as he spoke.
"Wu Lin, your Brother..."
"What's his name?"
Mu Ye's expression froze for a moment before he turned his gaze toward Tang Wulin's direction, unable to resist asking aloud. The talent of the young man before him was impressive, but his brother was even more extraordinary!
Not only a top-tier Forging Master but also a top-tier Mecha Master! Just what kind of genius was this older brother—this peerless prodigy Zhen Hua had mentioned to him countless times?
"Tang Luochuan."
Tang Wulin slowly uttered those three words.
As he spoke, his face was filled with pride and admiration, as if being his brother's younger sibling was the greatest honor of his life.
He was proud of his brother!
"Tang Luochuan, what a fine name..."
"Wait, did you say his name is Tang Luochuan?"
Upon hearing those three words, a look of confusion flashed through Mu Ye's eyes before they suddenly lit up with realization, as if he had just remembered something significant.
"That's right, my brother is Tang Luochuan. Senior, do you know him?" Tang Wulin asked with slight puzzlement, looking at the suddenly excited man before him. In his memory, his brother had never mentioned knowing any top-tier Mecha Masters.
Let alone someone as distinguished as the current leader of the Body Sect. If he had to name the strongest Mecha Master his brother knew...
Well, that would probably be his own parents!
"Mu Ye, what's going on...?"
Even Zhen Hua was taken aback. This was the first time he had seen this usually calm and indifferent man react so strongly—and all because of Luo Chuan's name.
Could it be that Mu Ye had also heard of Luo Chuan's exploits?
"Zhen Hua, do you remember the genius I once told you about..."
"The one I met in Eastsea City!"
Mu Ye took a deep breath, as if transported back to several years ago—to the young man he had instructed the Eastsea City Mecha Master Association to keep an eye on and protect.
"Because we had to leave in a hurry, I only asked the association's president to keep an extra watch over him before returning with you. Never did I imagine that the next time I'd hear of him, he would already have..."
Mu Ye couldn't help but sigh in amazement.
Back then, he had accompanied Zhen Hua to Eastsea City to visit the Mu Chen family when he encountered that young man who was simultaneously studying to be a Mecha Designer, Mecha Manufacturer, and Mecha Technician!
Who would have thought that in just a few short years...
He would already have risen to become a Seventh-Level Mecha Master!
"You mean to say..."
"That boy from back then was Luo Chuan?"
Zhen Hua's eyes widened in astonishment. Just as he had mentioned Luo Chuan to Mu Ye countless times, Mu Ye had repeatedly brought up that prodigious youth from Eastsea City to counter him.
Yet neither of them had ever imagined they were talking about the same person. So...
Was the world really this small?
"Hmm?"
Beside them, Tang Wulin wore a thoughtful expression.
Gradually, his eyes also brightened with realization. No wonder the president of the Eastsea City Mecha Master Association had sought out his brother back then.
It was all because of the Body Sect leader standing before him now!
"Wu Lin."
"Tell me about your brother."
Mu Ye turned to Tang Wulin, letting out a relieved breath, his face filled with anticipation. He wanted to know just what kind of legendary experiences this young man had gone through.
Because he remembered—that boy had been mastering all Mecha-related secondary professions simultaneously. And now, he had even taken up forging? That was simply terrifying.
"Mm..."
"Actually, my brother will be here soon. You can talk to him about these matters later..."
Tang Wulin said with a smile. Just then, the figures of two handsome young men appeared before them—it was Tang Luochuan, with Gu Yue following closely by his side.
"President Zhen Hua, Wu Lin..."
Tang Luochuan's gaze drifted into the distance as he stepped forward with a light smile. Beside him, Gu Yue maintained her usual faint smile.
However, the moment his eyes landed on the person standing next to Zhen Hua, his expression froze in an instant. Familiar—far too familiar!
"That's..."
Tang Luochuan hesitated for a moment. Wasn't this the powerful Mecha Designer from Heaven Dou City he had met years ago at the Mecha Master Association in Eastsea City?
It was because of this man that he had come to know Gu Jingtian, the president of the Forging Master Association in Eastsea City—though they weren't particularly close.
In his eyes, this man had always been a top-tier Mecha Designer from Heaven Dou City, holding significant influence among Mecha Designers. Yet now, he was standing right beside Zhen Hua!
The implications were obvious. This formidable top-tier Mecha Designer was actually a close friend—and protector—of the Divine Blacksmith, Zhen Hua...
The Sect Master of the Body Sect, the Body Douluo—Mu Ye!
"So..."
"It's you!"
