"I can surely do that, but are you sure that you want me to do the Enhancement at this place?" Jiang Tian's coarse voice echoed once again, both father and daughter stared at each other in confusion for a moment before enlightenment struck.
All eyes focused on the three of them, and if Jiang Tian showcased his talent and skills towards the rare and valuable occupation of an Enhancement Articifer, it was possible that one of these people would report it to the influences in this City.
And once that happened, the two of them would have to contest against those influences to prevent them from stealing Jiang Tian away from their hands.
This realization confused and amused them at the same time, was he so confident in his skills, that everyone in the City would follow after him once he showcased them?
"You're quite an interesting person since you're that confident in your skills, let's bring this somewhere else..." The middle-aged man slightly smiled and dragged the two of them away inside a luxurious inn. With his reputation and influence, such a thing was simple and soon, the three of them stood inside an Intermediate Articifer Room.
The Articifer Room was complete with equipment for all branches of artificers. The middle-aged man pressed some buttons and metalworking tools emerged from the wall.
An anvil made from a metal that resembled platinum appeared on the floor. On top of the anvil was a hammer that shone in a bluish cold light. The middle-aged man smirked, his daughter approached Jiang Tian and said.
"Enhancement is a job that requires precision, coordination, and a discerning mind, without all these three, there's no way that someone could possibly become an Enhancement Articifer." Her eyes sparkled in a hinting light and Jiang Tian lightly smirked.
"So the young mistress is saying that I should prove if I have those three qualities before I could work on enhancing your weapons?"
The young woman nodded her head, the middle-aged man behind her started at Jiang Tian with astonished eyes. Usually, mortals like him were stupid and crass. Mostly due to the fact that they didn't receive any proper education. However, Jiang Tian was surprisingly a man that could catch hints and think in terms of common sense.
Jiang Tian inwardly smirked, after he was beaten up, he closely studied the Enhancement System and realized that the work of Enhancement Articifers wasn't so simple. It was a complex process that required complete concentration and decisiveness.
He cannot blame them for asking him to prove himself. After all, once an Enhancement fails, not only the weapon would be destroyed, all the materials used would be thrown out of the window.
The materials used were rare items that could only be sought but not found. Demand was higher than the supply and each material lost meant a huge loss that cannot possibly compare to Jiang Tian's measly life.
Jiang Tiang stared at the soft sword on the young woman's waist as numerous system windows floated up in the air and displayed information regarding the soft sword's name, description, innate effects, additional effects, hidden effects and even the materials used in making the sword were displayed right before Jiang Tian's eyes.
[Soft Sword of the Ice Cavern - Substandard Tier]
[A Soft Sword crafted by a Master Blacksmith of the Xia Clan, forged deep within an Ice Cavern, the sword constantly absorbed the Ice Laws of Heaven and Earth. As a result, the Soft Sword became a Yin Attribute Sword that suited females.]
[Innate Effects: Because of the absorption of Ice Laws, each attack inflicts frost effects, effectively slowing an enemy's movement speed and inflicting a corrosion effect.]
[Additional Effects: Once three attacks lands on the same spot, a volley of frost will explode in a cone from the sword's tip, inflicting further damage to the enemy.]
[Hidden Effects: Landing six attacks on the same area, increases the damage of the next attack. However, if the attack fails to land, a backlash will occur dealing the same damage to the user.]
[Materials Used: Hundred Tempered Cold Platinum, Sunken Silver, Ice Elemental Essence, Fifty Tempered Yin Iron and Umbadara Snake Leather.]
The two saw Jiang Tian's knitted eyebrows as they simultaneously lifted small smiles on their faces. The middle-aged man's cultivation enabled him to see through people and he understood that Jiang Tian wasn't bluffing. His daughter beside him merely smiled and didn't interrupt Jiang Tian's probing eyes.
"Wheeew~"
Jiang Tian emerged from his contemplation and wiped the beaded sweats on his forehead. His actions aimed to create a facade that he struggled to see through the young woman's weapon since it would be too ridiculous if Jiang Tian easily uncovered the truth about the young woman's sword.
"It took me quite a while but I finally saw through the composition of your Soft Sword, if I am not wrong, the name of that Soft Sword should be Soft Sword of the Ice Cavern, a substandard tier sword and its innate effects should be inflicting Frost Yin on the enemy upon each successful attack, right?" Jiang Tian turned towards them and saw the shock within their eyes.
The first part of Jiang Tian's sentence made them feel doubtful, but when he disclosed the true name of the young woman's sword, their doubts turned into shock which intensified when Jiang Tian continued his exposition.
"As for the composition of the Soft Sword of the Ice Cavern, it should be made from Hundred Tempered Cold Platinum, Sunken SIlver, Ice Elemental Essence, Fifty Tempered Yin Iron and the hilt is made from the leather of the Umbadara Snake."
"Hundred Tempered Cold Platinum is famous for its durability and sharpness while the Sunken Silver is known for its flexibility, adding both materials together in the right ratio can surely form a sharp, yet flexible blade."
"The Ice Elemental Essence and Fifty Tempered Yin, on the other hand, was used in attracting the Ice Laws from the Ice Cavern where the Sword was forged."
"Lastly, since the Ice Law is closely-related with water and is slippery when gripped, the master blacksmith who crafted this sword used the Umbadara Snake as the material for its hilt since that snake is known for its rough skin which can easily sweep through its enemies."
When Jiang Tian finished his speech, two chins slammed on the floor. Both father and daughter stared wide-eyed at Jiang TIan's figure as if they were looking at a monster.
"H-H-He saw through everything about my sword just by looking at it?! He wasn't even holding it! Just looking at it! How is it possible that he knew that much about my sword?! Could it be that he's someone that my father recruited beforehand and is trolling me?"
The young woman craned her neck at her father and found that the latter had the same expression on his face. At this moment, her father that cared too much about his dignified image had his eyes opened as wide as possible along with his mouth that looked like one could stuff a whole egg in it.
Jiang Tian knitted his eyebrows and asked with some uncertainty, "Did I pass?"
The two regained their composure and turned speechless while staring at the awkwardly fidgeting Jiang Tian.
"Y-y-you pass..."
It took far more energy to say these two words as the concept of reality shattered before the young woman's eyes.
Jiang Tian crossed his arms together, slightly tilted his torso to the right and lifted his head to stare at the skies.
"After several weeks of suffering, at least three of my goals can finally be completed..." He inwardly sighed in relief as he thought about his future. His life back in his previous world can only be described as miserable. If possible, Jiang Tian didn't want to return to such a place full of dark memories.
Right now, he considered himself as a resident of this world and his goal?
That was of course,
To make a name for himself!
