Solve the mistery

As we all know, warda made another event for us these days. In few words, we must answer to some questions. Not easy ones anyway :)
So, the rules are:

This event will work as a quest; we will have certain clues and one question or one task. Our duty is to solve the mystery hidden in the clues to answer the question or to complete the task.

The event will have 12 steps, to solve the mystery into each step you will need to look for the answer into the Game Guides (only Official Guides), the Talk Dialog of NPCs, the Game or Clans’ Storyline, etc.
Each step will be opened by posting it in a separated and locked Thread in this Section, adding here the link to this step and it will be closed by adding here the indication that this step is closed.
The time that each step will keep opened depends on each step.
Once all the steps are completed we will post here all the steps, the solution and how to find them, we will add the name of the users that have solved each step.

NOTE: Who has solved the 12 steps but cannot earn the price because he has not answered into the 10 firsts participants for his server will be included in the previous lists of winners and will be able to earn the price if he answered into the 10 first for his server and this previous list.

Who has solved 11 or 12 steps but cannot earn the price because he has not answered into the 10 firsts participants for his server will be included in the previous lists of winners and will be able to earn the price if he answered into the 10 first for his server and this previous list.

And here it come the 1st step:

The first step in solving the mystery is to travel to Son Shan in the Zhonguan province. After talking to the Shaolin Elder, Fachang, he offered help. But Shaolin monks are mysterious and busy. In order to teach a Buddhist lesson, he has given clues to find what we are looking for.

Almost all Warriors use blacksmiths. While blacksmiths don’t often talk, they do listen and over hear gossip. And they meet once a month to share new techniques and the tasty bits of conversation with their Master.

We need this information. Who is the Master of the Blacksmiths?
