Since his parents did not wish for him to once again step into Steel City's dispute, naturally, he would not participate in it. However, as the steward had said, if he did not ask for more information about Steel City, he would not be able to survive. It would be the wrong choice if he were to end up as a small pawn.
Thinking about it like this, Tie Xiao Jun gradually fell asleep.
At dawn the next day, Tie Xiaoyan was called out by the melodious ringing of the bell.
After a simple wash up, Tie Xiaoyan stood at the door and looked at the dark blue sky and the white clouds. The determination in his heart slowly hardened.
Since he had already made up his mind to explore the outside world, he couldn't possibly stay in this small Iron City. Thus, he had to continuously become stronger and possess the strength to fly out of Iron City.
There was still some time before the competition, and Tie Xiao Jun didn't need to worry about his own strength anymore, so what he needed to do now was to find out where his next location was.
Because of the incident where he fought with his boss and stayed behind, Tie Xiao Jun's position in the eyes of the laborers had risen to a terrifying level.
Once they saw Tie Xiao Jun carrying food towards a certain crowd, those people would scatter while carrying food in fright. Therefore, whenever Tie Xiao Jun walked towards a certain direction, there would be no obstructions, and even when Tie Xiao Jun looked forward, there was no one in his field of vision.
If someone saw Tie Xiao-jun sticking close to him, they would definitely be scared out of their wits. It was even possible that Tie Xiao-jun went down to beg for mercy, because in their eyes, the fear from the beginning had already risen to the level of a pestilential existence.
Seeing another person fleeing while shouting like a madman, Tie Xiao-jun couldn't help but sigh.
He didn't know how many times this had happened, but since others didn't want to talk to him, he couldn't force them either. If he was forced by others, then it would be even more frightening.
Just as he was about to leave, he heard heavy breathing not too far away from him. Looking towards the source of the sound, he saw a young man trembling against the wall. It seemed that he didn't have the time to run, and when that young man saw Tie Xiao-jun looking at him, his breathing became heavier.
"You … What are you doing! I didn't provoke you! " The young man's mouth trembled as he opened it to say these two words after a long time.
"Cough, cough …" I asked you a question, and you know you have to answer it carefully. " When Tie Xiao-jun saw the young man's exaggerated performance, he got angry. However, he naturally couldn't roar. His mouth was full of dirty words, but his attitude was a bit unyielding.
"Ah, alright, alright. I'll answer whatever you ask! Answer me if I don't know! Don't hit me! " When the young man heard this, he seemed to have heard of a way to survive.
Tie Xiaoyan couldn't help but curse in his heart when he heard this. "F * * k!" Am I that scary? You're so scared that you can even answer things you don't know?! '
Although he didn't say it in such a manner, he still faintly said, "It's fine if you don't know. But if you're lying to me …"
AHH!" I won't lie to you, just ask. Even if you beat me to death, I won't lie to you! " The young man quickly raised his hands and shouted.
"Do you know what kind of position you get promoted from a handyman?" Tie Xiao-jun was too lazy to talk anymore, he pulled a stool over and sat down.
"I know that!" Hearing this, the young man's eyes lit up: "Guards!"
"Guards? What's that for? " Tie Xiao Jun froze for a second before he asked.
The young man was also stunned. Then, with a wry smile, he said, "I don't know about that, but I heard it from some older students. Because those who failed the job were sent away, we have no way of knowing about the real Steel City. Although we and the lowest level guards of Steel City are only at the same level, there is a huge gap between us and them."
"Fine." Tie Xiaoyan was a bit disappointed when he heard this.
"I've already said everything I need to say, I'm definitely not lying to you!" The young man hurriedly waved his hand and said, afraid that Tie Xiao-jun would be angered when he saw the dejected look on his face.
Seeing that young man's cowardly look, Tie Xiaoyan didn't want to waste his breath and directly left the cafeteria.
When that young man saw Tie Xiaoyan leave, he let out a long breath as if he had been reborn.
"What should I do? I never thought that there would be such a large gap between the two. No wonder that Head Supervisor rarely comes here. He must be busy with matters within Iron City. " As Tie Xiao Jun walked on the road, the starlight in the sky emitted a faint glow, shining on Tie Xiao Jun's body, casting a faint glow.
"Whatever. There's no point in thinking that much. It makes me nervous instead. I think I should study the current situation first." Tie Xiaoyan looked at the door of the dorm room that was just inches away from him and thought of the magical scene that had happened last night.
As he entered the room, he skillfully lit the lamp and took out the mysterious chisel.
"I really don't know what this is made of. To have such powerful abilities, it must be some sort of miracle, right? I don't know what his name is, but calling him a chisel like that really isn't worthy of his abilities. " Tie Xiao-jun looked at the chisel in his hand. In a situation where he had no idea what was going on, it was very ordinary.
Just as Tie Xiaoyan's thoughts disappeared, a faint green light shot out from the chisel.
"Huh?" Tie Xiaojun looked at the chisel in surprise, there seemed to be some mysterious writing in that faint green light.
"What word is that?" Tie Xiaojun stared at it for a long time, but he could not recognize it. It was obviously not a modern script, but it seemed to be some sort of rune or ancient script.
Tie Xiao Jun didn't recognize it, but other people or books might be fine, so he took out pen and paper and wrote it down.
With doubts in his mind, Tie Xiaojun fell asleep. Before he fell asleep, he held the chisel firmly in his hand.
At dawn the next day, Tie Xiaoyan woke up with the sound of the bell and stared at the chisel in his hand. There was still nothing abnormal, but when he closed his eyes to take a look at the iron power inside his body, his face was immediately filled with joy.
"It seems that he has been promoted to a level 3 iron controller. Although he only advanced one level, he only needed one night to achieve such an effect. Tie Xiao Jun could only snicker, how can he be greedy?"
On the other hand, Tie Xiao Jun was also worried that his strength would increase too quickly, and that his foundation wasn't very stable. If it was just a casual exercise, then he definitely wouldn't be able to achieve the desired result, and would have to use a special kind of secret technique, but these things were already very rare, if he wanted to obtain them, he could only obtain them from Iron City.
With the rapid increase of his strength, Tie Xiaoyan should be worried about his own hidden danger. The increase in the power of steel was related to his ability to store and control the power of steel, but what followed was the increase in the strength of his body. On the contrary, if his body was not strong enough, there would be an explosion after the power of steel reached a certain level, which would result in his death.
For most people, when slowly increasing the power of steel, it would also be used to temper their body, so they weren't worried about dying from the explosion. But now that Tie Xiao Jun had this mysterious chisel, his strength was rising so fast that if Tie Xiao Jun didn't have a powerful technique to help him strengthen his physique, the effect of the chisel wouldn't be effective anymore, because until now, Tie Xiao Jun could clearly feel that his body was going to swell and feel pain from time to time. For his own safety, Tie Xiao Jun had already used a chisel to release a large portion of his steel power.
Therefore, after finishing his own task, Tie Xiaoyan hurried back to his dormitory and began exercising his body. Although the effect wasn't very obvious, it was safer to strengthen Tie Xiaoyan. Like this, half a month passed quickly.
A few days before the start of the competition, Tie Xiaoyan registered and then focused all of his attention on training his body.
Other than slightly increasing Tie Xiao Jun's muscles for half a month, there was basically no other changes. That feeling of swelling and pain was still there, but because Tie Xiao Jun would release some of it after a period of time, nothing serious happened.
At the beginning, Tie Xiaoyan thought that only in physical form could one release the power of steel, but later on, he really couldn't find anything else to release the power of steel, so he tested the strength of the steel in the air. Soon after, he was surprised to find that the invisible air seemed to be shattered by a giant hand, causing countless tiny cracks to appear, but he quickly recovered.
Then, he threw a rock high into the sky. As he fell, he lifted the chisel and released the power of steel, and in the next moment, the air along with the rock was sliced into countless pieces. Then, the air returned to normal and the rock turned into a pile of dust, drifting along with the wind.
"Tsk tsk!" It's really magical! " It took him a while to react and clap his hands in celebration. If that was the case, then in future battles, he could launch a fatal attack without touching the enemy. If he could control his strength well, then he could easily inflict heavy injuries on others.
The next day's competition began. When Tie Xiaoyan confidently went to the competition venue, he found that he was the only one who registered.
