"Have you heard? The Sword Saint, Ju Mingye, met his demise when his weapon shattered mid-battle against the Spear Devil, Lei Zhen."

Yuan could hear the people around him mumbling as he casually enjoyed his food in a noodle shop.

"The Heavenly Blacksmith and the Eternal Blacksmith, huh? They've been rivals since they were mere Apprentice Blacksmiths thousands of years ago, fighting for the title of God of Creation.

However, the Eternal Blacksmith managed to create an Empyrean-grade treasure first, so I guess he's better."

"They may be amazing, but are they worthy of the God of Creation title? Only those who can create Celestial-grade treasures should be worthy of that position."
