If Tomun wasn’t wrong, then Lis really was the most outstanding peer she’d ever met!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Recalling her parents’ urging, Nidir firmly made up her mind.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, she didn’t actively express anything at the moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To introduce a forging apprentice to join Iron Hammer Workshop, she might have a chance by pleading with Grandpa Tomun.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But for a forging expert to want to join Iron Hammer Workshop, that’s beyond her involvement.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nidir quietly stayed aside, gazing warmly at Lis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Lis paid no attention to the gaze of the dwarf girl beside him and said to Tomun solemnly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I just arrived at Lonely Mountain City today, having been practicing alone at my hometown.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The reason for coming to Iron Hammer Workshop is that I heard it was the strongest place for forging in the Kingdom, so I wanted to learn.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s indeed true; our workshop is the strongest in the Kingdom. The Molten Heart Workshop and Kazadum Secret Furnace can’t compare to us.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“But, you said you’ve been learning alone back home, do you mean self-taught, without a teacher?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tomun stroked his beard, speaking proudly, but then seemed to realize something and quickly looked at Lis.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Well, Uncle Felix taught me for a while but didn’t take me as his apprentice.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis nodded and said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Felix? Let me think, is he the young man from the City Lord’s Forge Workshop in Bo’er City?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If it’s him, at his level, he might not be as strong as you now, so it wouldn’t matter if he taught you or not.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tomun looked at Lis, his eyes shining, mumbling to himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Wait, allow me to interrupt.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis looked at Tomun’s increasingly unusual gaze and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I’ve just come to Lonely Mountain City, my first time at Iron Hammer Workshop, why are you so sure of my strong forging skills?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Haha, of course, is there anything I can’t discern?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tomun laughed loudly, then noticed Lis’s puzzled look and explained with a smile:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You think I haven’t spent long enough in forging? I can naturally see your skill.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Your aura and some details might seem insignificant to others, but they’re quite clear to me.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tomun pointed at the calluses on Lis’s hands, smiling.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So that’s why, truly worthy of you!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis nodded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I like it when you can see it, otherwise, all my preparations would be in vain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since Lis decided to come to Iron Hammer Workshop and join as a Forging Master, he naturally made sufficient preparations.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he were an apprentice, there wouldn’t be much to attend to.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But to gain qualification to enter the core of Sotiga Volcano, Lis certainly couldn’t climb slowly from an apprentice level.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although steady, the time consumed would be unnecessarily long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, Lis decided to join Iron Hammer Workshop as a Forging Master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A suddenly arriving Forging Master, even entering Iron Hammer Workshop, would surely attract attention from the Dwarf Royal Court and even the Dwarf Temple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore, Lis naturally needed to consider some details.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Like now, Lis specifically designed the current image of Dwarf Lis based on the records of dwarf forging masters’ characteristics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now it seems, aside from perhaps being a bit “too handsome,” everything else is fine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A few thoughts flashed in his mind as Lis looked at Tomun and asked:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So now, can I join Iron Hammer Workshop?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You can, yes.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Tomun thought for a moment and said to Lis:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lis, I can discern your skill, but to join Iron Hammer Workshop, the rules dictate there must be a test.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Of course, this test might be very simple for you.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Follow me!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Saying this, Tomun headed towards the back of Iron Hammer Workshop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lis followed Tomun into the largest forging workshop inside Lonely Mountain City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lis, this is the affairs area, every craftsman at Iron Hammer Workshop needs to complete a certain forging task every month; this is the workshop’s requirement. You can accept the forging commission you want here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Lis, this is the materials area, where you can exchange the forging materials you need or buy them, but using workshop contributions for exchange is more worthwhile.”\u003C\u002Fp>",866,"2026-06-03T10:58:51.595Z","2026-06-03T10:58:57.738Z",1,"novelbin.me","197228aed0facf1923b2d068052a234d47f032e0a4d054efc9df2a7821a93da1","i-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-chapter-1180","i-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-chapter-1178",1658,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-ascend-to-the-divine-throne-through-arcane-mea-cover.jpg"]
