Forging The Path To Godliness-Chapter 107 - Influence

Chapter 107: Influence

With rumors running amok currently, the Divine Forging tribe that was at the eye of the storm also had some internal conflicts, because of this Ritual Ceremony, many of the members of the Divine Forging tribe were already arguing over it.

The Divine Forging tribe was a dwarf tribe, they had a natural faith towards the Great Deity of Forging from birth. Right at this time, many people were unhappy with the appearance of Ye Feng, he was the person who could cause them to be completely dissociated from the Great Deity of Forging.

On this matter, they did not show any courtesy in their discussions.

Our Divine Forging tribe had inherited the techniques of the Great Deity of Forging, at this time, because their leader had become the disciple of a human, the entire Divine Forging tribe was going to be chased out of the dwarf race?

No matter what, the Divine Forging tribe could not agree to such a matter.

In addition, the Divine Forging tribe was a follower of the Great Deity of Forging, if they were chased out of the dwarf race, they would also lose the support of the Great Deity of Forging.

Without the support of the Great Deity of Forging, what would the Divine Forging tribe have left?

Thus, Claude could absolutely not become the successor of the Divine Forging tribe.

Such voices became louder even inside the Divine Forging tribe itself, right now, they had basically branded Claude as a traitor of the Great Deity.

But since there were people who objected to Claude, he naturally had supporters as well.

What? Claude’s forging techniques are at the top of the new generation of dwarves, you want to deny him the position of successor in the Divine Forging tribe just because he has a human teacher?

If the Divine Forging tribe’s successor is not Claude, will it be you? Can you take the responsibility?

If your forging skills are obtained from the Great Deity of Forging, then why are there no achievements from you all the way until Claude appeared? Instead, you have to act like it is a huge deal now?

The Divine Forging tribe had been declining since Claude was a small kid, back then, which tribe gave the Divine Forging tribe any bit of respect?

Now that Claude has achieved something to make the entire Divine Forging tribe proud, now that they could stand up tall against the other tribes, you want to remove him as the successor?

Can none of you see the horrible performance you showed in the Grand Forging Competition?

What are you afraid of? Don’t tell me your forging techniques have never been modified or improved upon since the start?

As the argument of both sides became more frequent and intense, at this time, Ye Feng could no longer ignore it anymore.

Initially, because Ye Feng saved the Divine Forging tribe, he was treated as their honored guest, everyday, they were meticulous in all aspects of his living conditions, including food, clothing, and accommodation. But now, after this situation, the Divine Forging tribe had started to act differently.

They did not talk about this matter in front of Ye Feng, but their gaze towards him had changed. Their staring had become more frequent.

How could Ye Feng be unaware of what was happening at this time?

At this time, Ye Feng stood up and addressed the members of the Divine Forging tribe in an open discussion.

“I know that many of you have forging techniques that originate from the Great Deity of Forging, because of this, you have constantly been afraid that your strength was declining gradually. But ask yourselves this, without Claude, without me, could you have resolved the crisis you experienced, had such matters been rare?”

The Divine Forging tribe fell into silence after hearing Ye Feng’s questions. The truth was, they had to admit that he was right, if not for Ye Feng, Claude would not have gotten first place, if not for Ye Feng, they would still be trapped here.

However, some people expressed a different opinion: “Before Claude rose to power, the Iron Hammer tribe did not target us specifically.”

But once that was said, it was immediately rebuked: “Of course, the Iron Hammer tribe only had to watch as we declined gradually, why would they need to dirty their hands to something redundant?”

After hearing this, the Divine Forging tribe fell into silence, they could not lie to themselves that they were very strong, voices of discontent became softer and weaker now.

Looking at this situation, Ye Feng spoke: “Claude’s forging techniques are all taught by me, even if the Iron Hammer tribe’s schemes succeed, he will not be weakened in any way. If you guys think that my forging techniques are good, you can learn them from me as well.”

After Ye Feng said that, the opposition side vanished without a trace. The core reason why they objected to Claude was because they were afraid that they would get much weaker after leaving the dwarf race, they would eventually end up as meat on the chopping block.

Now that Ye Feng offered to teach them forging skills, they would not reject his offer, after all, it was something that was good for them.

After many people agreed to this, Ye Feng quickly planned this matter of imparting forging skills to the Divine Forging tribe and tried to sort the members out.

No matter how weak the Divine Forging tribe was now, they still had many people with varying levels of skills in forging, it was extremely troublesome to teach all of them in fact.

Even Ye Feng felt a headache now, but he had once taken in two disciples, Claude and Blake. With such experience, he quickly classified the members into different classes and let Claude and Blake teach the elementary classes for people with lower skills.

Those with better skills would be taught by Ye Feng personally, the Divine Forging tribe had no objections towards such a plan, Claude and Blake were very experienced and had deep foundations, it was not a problem for them to teach the amateurs.

Thus, the entire Divine Forging tribe’s members became Ye Feng’s students at this moment, even some elders who were stage five Blacksmiths went to ask Ye Feng some questions regarding forging.

The overbearing attitude and atmosphere from earlier was gone now, even those who opposed Claude within the Divine Forging tribe became much softer now, much fewer conflicts arose as well.
