He was already here in the sect for almost three weeks already. Although there weren't any sudden improvement in his cultivation, the achievement in the section of knowledge and the relationship between him and his senior brother and sisters are significantly improved compared to before.
His relationship with his senior brother eighth is repaired, and also with this incident of his seventh brother, he was sure that the bond between him and the eighth seniors should be closer by a lot now.
When he entered his courtyard, Zhang Wu Ji was greeted with the arrival of his eight senior brother and sisters in his courtyard, each of them was exchanging their opinion in cultivation while waiting for their youngest junior to come back.
Since they know that their youngest junior was very fond with reading, the eight of them were here with a small gift, namely books, to be given to their junior as a sign of good will. Only their eldest senior brother came with a second gift, which was a box with another hundred Qi Sensing Pills.
"Eldest brother! This gift is too much!" knowing how valuable is the Qi Sensing Pills, Zhang Wu Ji intends to reject the gift at first, but were forced to accept them when Eldest brother mentioned that this was delivered to him by their master, who doesn't want anyone to think that he's being impartial and over pampering the youngest disciple too much.
"Oh... Since it comes from the master, then I'll accept them. Please help me to thank our master and tell him that the ninth will do something in return for such a gift." Zhang Wu Ji requested that his eldest brother deliver the message back to their master, and accepted the box with a hundred Qi Sensing Pills.
"Ninth, we're here for one request actually." the second brother steps up and speaks. Being the most straightforward among them, he was the best candidate to bring up this matter.
"My second brother, please tell, you know ninth will not hesitate to help if its related to his eight senior brother and sisters!" Zhang Wu Ji replied, and pay attention to his second brother.
"To be honest, your eight senior brothers and sister all went out to challenge the disciple from another sect in our previous visit, and up till now, our weapon is still not repaired into their peak condition yet. Although your Eldest brother, me, third and fourth is safe and fine with the half-broken weapon, if we were to met with the incident with the seventh brother again, the weapon will be a hindrance, and not help!"
"It was because seventh brother's Seven Leaves Sword break in the battle that the Jade Toothed Bat managed to give him a bite. This time, since ninth is here, can your senior brother and sisters request you to help us repair our weapons?" the second brother explains their difficult situation to their youngest brother after the sixth sister see how amazing is his ability in handling the metal through forging.
"Of course! If I am not using my ability for good, then for what am I learning blacksmithing? Senior brother and sisters, feel free to leave your weapon to me and tell me how would you like your weapon to be done. Since it was almost in a broken state anyway, why not we mold them into a better weapon that suits ourselves more?" Zhang Wu Ji agreed to help his eight senior brother and sisters and decides to do more.
What is the use of repair if they were not suitable, to begin with? Once it enters the furnace, they will undergo the most profession changeover, and so, stating the changes in the sword is the way he can make sure that this eight new weapon will suits his senior brother and sisters perfectly!
"Since our ninth brother says so, everybody, let's not hesitates with this and be decisive! Tell our brother what we want in the sword when they undergo the forging!" the eldest stand-up and lead the other closer to their youngest, and begin to describes their requirement on the weapon.
Although it took a while to decipher the real meaning between his eight senior brother and sisters, at the end of their discussion, h managed to understand what they actually wanted. And for the next step, he will keep all of their weapons, because they were all used by his respective senior brother and sisters until they turned into this state.
With all of their weapon is already in his hand, how can he not start his work now? Zhang Wu Ji knows that without sufficient material to be used, it will be difficult for him to complete their weapon makeover within a few days, thus he went to the sect's Weapon Forge to request for some higher quality metal, such as Pure Iron and Sentient Iron.
It reduced the need to smelt the mineral out from the ore, and he will be left with only two works. Removal of the impure silica inside the ingots, and removal of other Iron components from the Ingots. He will only need and use the purest and highest quality Iron in his hand, and not the semi-completed products.
Armed with the barely sufficient Strands of Inner Qi, Zhang Wu Ji started. With only 38 strands of Inner Qi, he can only manage to use to Art of Pulverized Iron for six times before he exhausted himself from continues. With every 4 hours pass, he continued the execution of the Art of Pulverized Iron, until he finally completed the two Pure Iron ingots in their high-grade quality.
With only one and one-third ingots is required, Zhang Wu Ji first combined the first ingot with the one-third part of the second ingots together, to form an Iron rod before he cut them into eight pieces of round plates. What weird from his cutting, the fifth and sixth Round Iron plate is smaller than the others, and the seventh's Iron plate is twice the size compared to the other similar.
Taking the first, second, third, fourth, and eighth Round Iron plates, he begins to forge them in the alphabetical order, starting from the first plate. The reason behind this arrangement was because of his senior demands a different length, weight, and also in their shape.
With his eldest brother's first, Zhang Wu Ji fire the furnace into their top temperature before he starts shaping the plate into the form of a sword. As the eldest among the nine of them, his first senior brother requested for a sword that came in the length of exactly 1.6 meters long on the blade, and void of the handguard because of the familiarity for using the Seven Leaves Sword for so long.
As for the second and third brother, their request is to craft a weapon that comes with a heavier sword guards, because amongst the nine disciples, second and third brother is the chubbiest among all, with the whopping size of 130kg in weight. Therefore, to match their size and strength, possessing a thicker and heavier sword is a must.
The fourth brother and eighth brother are more to design, where both loved literature and calligraphy since young. Their demand is simple, a blade similar to the Seven Leaves Sword, only in a better quality, and the engraving of [Seven Star] in the blade's body.
As for the fifth and sixth sister, their demand was a sword specially crafted for them, with the length of 1.5 meters long, and as light as feather, but more durable than a block of steel. Due to the two senior sisters are a very refined ladies, their demand on the sword should come with not too much, and not too over decorated, to represents the simple yet elegant life of theirs.
Lastly, is the seventh brother sword, which was broken during their fight in the cave infested by poisonous Wild Beast and also Jade Toothed Bat. Being the biggest physically among the nine of them, the seventh brother is standing as high as 2.32 meters tall when he did not bend his knees. To a person of his size, a proper length sword is a must.
Specially crafted and sharpened, Zhang Wu Ji crafted a 2.22 meters long sword for his seventh brother, which carries a more special shape, which stating how eager the wielder wishes to pierce through the seven stars. With their initial shape is formed, he can begin with working on their body, sharpness, weight, and designs.
The process to complete the eight swords took him six days in total, where his Strands of Inner Qi increased to 42. When the door into the Blacksmithing Room is unlocked, his eight senior brother and sisters gathered before him, just to take a look at the eight swords placed on top aligned together on the working table.

"Junior brother, is this eight sword all belonged to each of us?" the fifth and sixth senior sister immediately fall in love with the eight swords, especially the fifth and the sixth, with the engraving of Mei (Beauty) and Ya (Elegance) on the body of their blade.
As for the seventh, he placed his hand on the body of the seventh blade, engraved with the word Ying (Bravery) on its body. "I love this sword!" he shouted. It was so loud everybody closed their ears for the sudden eardrum smashing voices.
"Seventh! See where we are first! You actually screamed when looking at the sword!" second and third senior brother scolded the seventh, but the two fatties were actually hugging the sword at their chest, afraid of losing them away.
Zhang Wu Ji was first feeling regretful when he noticed that the two sword for his second and third brother actually helps in the diet. It was a trash ability for sure, but based on the two senior brothers, he wasn't too sure if its a trash or a treasure. On their sword is the word Sou (longevity) and Fu (Prosperity) engraved.
As for the eldest senior brother, his sword was just right in his hand. Suitable handle, length, and weight, the body of the blade were even engraved with the word Da Ge (Eldest Brother / Big brother) on it. It was just up to his liking, as he begins to sheath the sword.
While for the two quieter fourth and eighth brother, they both quietly inspecting their respective Wen (Knowledge) and Wu (Martial Arts) sword. With all eight of them were holding their own sword, Zhang Wu Ji left each of them with a piece of paper, to further their understanding of the Yi-Jia Sword.
Looking at all of them hurried to the training ground to test their new sword, Zhang Wu Ji smiled and sent them away. The moment all of them were gone, he collapsed. A six-day continuous forging is so hectic it almost took half of his life away. What's more, each of them was upgraded to +5, which required 10 strands of Inner Qi each time he upgrades them.
Laying flat on the ground like a dead person, he was spotted by Tang Yuan that just came back from the farming works. He was shocked with the collapsed young master, and quickly took him back to his room and let him rest properly while going to the main kitchen in the sect and requested for the best meal to be prepared.
Meanwhile...
"Seven Layer Star Aura!" the fifth and sixth sister joint their defensive technique together to form a gigantic defensive field in the middle of the training ground. Standing outside of the coverage of the aura, the seventh raise his sword high up above his head before he howled loudly.
"Seven Sealing Swords!"
The moment the skill was activated, seven brilliant swords formed out of thin air and strikes into the combined Seven Layers Star Aura, and they both started to cracked one after another. With the seven swords and seven layers of defensive aura are gone, the eldest brother, fourth, and eighth execute their confinement wheel ability and locked the three from continue to move.
As for the two fatties, they were standing there without making any moves.
"Our ninth brother only say that this sword can help us to lose weight! Where are the special skills!!!"
The two end up getting bullied by the other six of them until they were smacked into the ground for eating too much each time they were having a group meal.
Back to the young master Zhang Wu Ji, he slept for one full day before he finally wakes up from his slumber. For the first time in this world, he was stricken by hunger from not eating properly for the past six days. His stomach growls for food, and at the time the meal was served, the staff from the kitchen received the order to prepare even more food for their Master Senior Ninth.
He swept clean the food that was prepared for three people consumption before he finally stops himself from continuing. The moment he's done, Zhang Wu Ji remembered that before this, the eight senior brother and sisters of his gave him a collection of eight different books.
[First Edition Wound Related Medicine]
[Path of Blacksmithing to Jewelling]
[Understanding Metal - Iron Edition]
[Inner Qi and Relationship with Ping An Continent]
[History of Yantai County and their Losses]
[The Yantai Mandrakes and their Healing Properties]
[What is Yin? What is Yang?]
[Eternal Sunset, What is that?]
Looking at the eight slightly rare record books, Zhang Wu Ji felt a hint of warmth given from the book as cold as ice. It was a way of kindness shown by his senior brother and sisters after they been so kind to him. But unfortunately, the eight books did not carry any special properties after being upgraded, so they end up becoming the collection of books for him, and not something to be brought everywhere.
"Wait... Why do I insist on rewriting the Bone Strengthening Art when I have a shorter version of the Fist of Destruction Qi Manual in hand? This manual only have eleven pages!" he remembered the short Fist of Destruction Qi Manual that was placed on the podium during the sect test, and they were allowed to keep the manual with them as they leave.
After considering a while, he decides to drop the Bone Strengthening Art for a moment, and begin to focus on the Fist of Destruction Qi Manual first. With 42 Strands of Inner Qi now, his action was a little faster than before.
The only insufficient is the paper that was delivered into his courtyard are beginning to thin, leaving him with only the lowest quality Xuan Paper, a kind of paper perfect for blurry ink drawings but not on taking notes. Left with no choice, he decided to temporary rewrite them for now, but only to be copied into a better grade Xuan Paper once the stock arrived from the Seven Star Sect's management office.
By using the worst quality Xuan Paper which were more suitable only for the drawing purposes, Zhang Wu Ji struggles to pen the words on the paper that will blur at the moment they made the contact with the black ink. These struggles make Zhang Wu Ji to a slowdown in his process of writing, but put more attention in the amount of ink he should use in each word, and estimates the spreading of the ink the moment the brush touches the paper.
In the first paper, they end up being a trash. It was more accurate to call it a paper dab with ink, and not written. As on the second trial, he succeeds in making them half readable, but it was still considered as a trash. The only weird matter on the paper was their description.
Corrupted Pages of Impartment +5
Usage: describes the method of Fist, but corrupted
Durability: 1/1
Special: Learning the move in this page will increase the chances of inner demon appears.
"How can the page for Fist of Destruction Qi become corrupted page instead? Did I copied them in a wrong way?" Zhang Wu Ji tried to decipher the differences between the two first pages, but except the overspread of inks and some blurry words, nothing unusual is spotted.
"This... Tell me that's not something incredible in this world." Zhang Wu Ji seems to found out the reason for the pages to become corrupted, but it was something so insignificant to be discerned by somebody who read too much book like him!
"I just realized that, In this world, except the description related to the plants, medicine, this world, actually yet to found out the possibility of coloring and describing something through drawing and pictures!"
"No wonder such a big hall in my master's Reflecting Pagoda, he did not possess a single drawing or art!"
"But wait. My fourth senior brother is well educated and deeply focused himself in the profession of art, what does that mean?"
"I should pay my fourth brother a visit!" Zhang Wu Ji packed his important belongings and decided to walk out of his courtyard, after so many days holed inside for various of small matters!
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!

He was already here in the sect for almost three weeks already. Although there weren't any sudden improvement in his cultivation, the achievement in the section of knowledge and the relationship between him and his senior brother and sisters are significantly improved compared to before.His relationship with his senior brother eighth is repaired, and also with this incident of his seventh brother, he was sure that the bond between him and the eighth seniors should be closer by a lot now.When he entered his courtyard, Zhang Wu Ji was greeted with the arrival of his eight senior brother and sisters in his courtyard, each of them was exchanging their opinion in cultivation while waiting for their youngest junior to come back.Since they know that their youngest junior was very fond with reading, the eight of them were here with a small gift, namely books, to be given to their junior as a sign of good will. Only their eldest senior brother came with a second gift, which was a box with another hundred Qi Sensing Pills."Eldest brother! This gift is too much!" knowing how valuable is the Qi Sensing Pills, Zhang Wu Ji intends to reject the gift at first, but were forced to accept them when Eldest brother mentioned that this was delivered to him by their master, who doesn't want anyone to think that he's being impartial and over pampering the youngest disciple too much."Oh... Since it comes from the master, then I'll accept them. Please help me to thank our master and tell him that the ninth will do something in return for such a gift." Zhang Wu Ji requested that his eldest brother deliver the message back to their master, and accepted the box with a hundred Qi Sensing Pills."Ninth, we're here for one request actually." the second brother steps up and speaks. Being the most straightforward among them, he was the best candidate to bring up this matter."My second brother, please tell, you know ninth will not hesitate to help if its related to his eight senior brother and sisters!" Zhang Wu Ji replied, and pay attention to his second brother."To be honest, your eight senior brothers and sister all went out to challenge the disciple from another sect in our previous visit, and up till now, our weapon is still not repaired into their peak condition yet. Although your Eldest brother, me, third and fourth is safe and fine with the half-broken weapon, if we were to met with the incident with the seventh brother again, the weapon will be a hindrance, and not help!""It was because seventh brother's Seven Leaves Sword break in the battle that the Jade Toothed Bat managed to give him a bite. This time, since ninth is here, can your senior brother and sisters request you to help us repair our weapons?" the second brother explains their difficult situation to their youngest brother after the sixth sister see how amazing is his ability in handling the metal through forging."Of course! If I am not using my ability for good, then for what am I learning blacksmithing? Senior brother and sisters, feel free to leave your weapon to me and tell me how would you like your weapon to be done. Since it was almost in a broken state anyway, why not we mold them into a better weapon that suits ourselves more?" Zhang Wu Ji agreed to help his eight senior brother and sisters and decides to do more.What is the use of repair if they were not suitable, to begin with? Once it enters the furnace, they will undergo the most profession changeover, and so, stating the changes in the sword is the way he can make sure that this eight new weapon will suits his senior brother and sisters perfectly!"Since our ninth brother says so, everybody, let's not hesitates with this and be decisive! Tell our brother what we want in the sword when they undergo the forging!" the eldest stand-up and lead the other closer to their youngest, and begin to describes their requirement on the weapon.Although it took a while to decipher the real meaning between his eight senior brother and sisters, at the end of their discussion, h managed to understand what they actually wanted. And for the next step, he will keep all of their weapons, because they were all used by his respective senior brother and sisters until they turned into this state.With all of their weapon is already in his hand, how can he not start his work now? Zhang Wu Ji knows that without sufficient material to be used, it will be difficult for him to complete their weapon makeover within a few days, thus he went to the sect's Weapon Forge to request for some higher quality metal, such as Pure Iron and Sentient Iron.It reduced the need to smelt the mineral out from the ore, and he will be left with only two works. Removal of the impure silica inside the ingots, and removal of other Iron components from the Ingots. He will only need and use the purest and highest quality Iron in his hand, and not the semi-completed products.Armed with the barely sufficient Strands of Inner Qi, Zhang Wu Ji started. With only 38 strands of Inner Qi, he can only manage to use to Art of Pulverized Iron for six times before he exhausted himself from continues. With every 4 hours pass, he continued the execution of the Art of Pulverized Iron, until he finally completed the two Pure Iron ingots in their high-grade quality.With only one and one-third ingots is required, Zhang Wu Ji first combined the first ingot with the one-third part of the second ingots together, to form an Iron rod before he cut them into eight pieces of round plates. What weird from his cutting, the fifth and sixth Round Iron plate is smaller than the others, and the seventh's Iron plate is twice the size compared to the other similar.Taking the first, second, third, fourth, and eighth Round Iron plates, he begins to forge them in the alphabetical order, starting from the first plate. The reason behind this arrangement was because of his senior demands a different length, weight, and also in their shape.With his eldest brother's first, Zhang Wu Ji fire the furnace into their top temperature before he starts shaping the plate into the form of a sword. As the eldest among the nine of them, his first senior brother requested for a sword that came in the length of exactly 1.6 meters long on the blade, and void of the handguard because of the familiarity for using the Seven Leaves Sword for so long.As for the second and third brother, their request is to craft a weapon that comes with a heavier sword guards, because amongst the nine disciples, second and third brother is the chubbiest among all, with the whopping size of 130kg in weight. Therefore, to match their size and strength, possessing a thicker and heavier sword is a must.The fourth brother and eighth brother are more to design, where both loved literature and calligraphy since young. Their demand is simple, a blade similar to the Seven Leaves Sword, only in a better quality, and the engraving of Seven Star in the blade's body.As for the fifth and sixth sister, their demand was a sword specially crafted for them, with the length of 1.5 meters long, and as light as feather, but more durable than a block of steel. Due to the two senior sisters are a very refined ladies, their demand on the sword should come with not too much, and not too over decorated, to represents the simple yet elegant life of theirs.Lastly, is the seventh brother sword, which was broken during their fight in the cave infested by poisonous Wild Beast and also Jade Toothed Bat. Being the biggest physically among the nine of them, the seventh brother is standing as high as 2.32 meters tall when he did not bend his knees. To a person of his size, a proper length sword is a must.Specially crafted and sharpened, Zhang Wu Ji crafted a 2.22 meters long sword for his seventh brother, which carries a more special shape, which stating how eager the wielder wishes to pierce through the seven stars. With their initial shape is formed, he can begin with working on their body, sharpness, weight, and designs.The process to complete the eight swords took him six days in total, where his Strands of Inner Qi increased to 42. When the door into the Blacksmithing Room is unlocked, his eight senior brother and sisters gathered before him, just to take a look at the eight swords placed on top aligned together on the working table.Yi-Jia Sword Eldest Sword +5-Attack: 13-Defense: 13-Durability: 39/39-Special: Can activate Confinement Wheel when paying 22 Strands of Inner Qi-Yi-Jia Sword Prosper Sword +5-Attack: 15-Defense: 11-Durability: 39/39-Special: Digest Food Faster-Yi-Jia Sword Longevity Sword +5-Attack: 15-Defense: 11-Durability: 39/39-Special: Digest Food Faster-Yi-Jia Sword Knowledge Sword +5-Attack: 13-Defense: 13-Durability: 39/39-Special: Can activate Confinement Wheel when paying 22 Strands of Inner Qi-Yi-Jia Sword Beauty Sword +5-Attack: 12-Defense: 15-Durability: 39/39-Special: Can activate Seven Layer Star Aura to protect one and others when paying 40 strands of Inner Qi-Yi-Jia Sword Elegance Sword +5-Attack: 12-Defense: 15-Durability: 39/39-Special: Can activate Seven Layer Star Aura to protect one and others when paying 40 strands of Inner Qi-Yi-Jia Sword Bravery Sword +5-Attack: 19-Defense: 11-Durability: 39/39-Special: Can activate Seven Sealing Sword when paying 35 strands of Inner Qi-Yi-Jia Sword Martial Sword +5-Attack: 13-Defense: 13-Durability: 39/39-Special: Can activate Confinement Wheel when paying 22 Strands of Inner Qi-"Junior brother, is this eight sword all belonged to each of us?" the fifth and sixth senior sister immediately fall in love with the eight swords, especially the fifth and the sixth, with the engraving of Mei Beauty and Ya Elegance on the body of their blade.As for the seventh, he placed his hand on the body of the seventh blade, engraved with the word Ying Bravery on its body. "I love this sword!" he shouted. It was so loud everybody closed their ears for the sudden eardrum smashing voices."Seventh! See where we are first! You actually screamed when looking at the sword!" second and third senior brother scolded the seventh, but the two fatties were actually hugging the sword at their chest, afraid of losing them away.Zhang Wu Ji was first feeling regretful when he noticed that the two sword for his second and third brother actually helps in the diet. It was a trash ability for sure, but based on the two senior brothers, he wasn't too sure if its a trash or a treasure. On their sword is the word Sou longevity and Fu Prosperity engraved.As for the eldest senior brother, his sword was just right in his hand. Suitable handle, length, and weight, the body of the blade were even engraved with the word Da Ge Eldest Brother / Big brother on it. It was just up to his liking, as he begins to sheath the sword.While for the two quieter fourth and eighth brother, they both quietly inspecting their respective Wen Knowledge and Wu Martial Arts sword. With all eight of them were holding their own sword, Zhang Wu Ji left each of them with a piece of paper, to further their understanding of the Yi-Jia Sword.Looking at all of them hurried to the training ground to test their new sword, Zhang Wu Ji smiled and sent them away. The moment all of them were gone, he collapsed. A six-day continuous forging is so hectic it almost took half of his life away. What's more, each of them was upgraded to +5, which required 10 strands of Inner Qi each time he upgrades them.Laying flat on the ground like a dead person, he was spotted by Tang Yuan that just came back from the farming works. He was shocked with the collapsed young master, and quickly took him back to his room and let him rest properly while going to the main kitchen in the sect and requested for the best meal to be prepared.Meanwhile..."Seven Layer Star Aura!" the fifth and sixth sister joint their defensive technique together to form a gigantic defensive field in the middle of the training ground. Standing outside of the coverage of the aura, the seventh raise his sword high up above his head before he howled loudly."Seven Sealing Swords!"The moment the skill was activated, seven brilliant swords formed out of thin air and strikes into the combined Seven Layers Star Aura, and they both started to cracked one after another. With the seven swords and seven layers of defensive aura are gone, the eldest brother, fourth, and eighth execute their confinement wheel ability and locked the three from continue to move.As for the two fatties, they were standing there without making any moves."Our ninth brother only say that this sword can help us to lose weight! Where are the special skills!!!"The two end up getting bullied by the other six of them until they were smacked into the ground for eating too much each time they were having a group meal.Back to the young master Zhang Wu Ji, he slept for one full day before he finally wakes up from his slumber. For the first time in this world, he was stricken by hunger from not eating properly for the past six days. His stomach growls for food, and at the time the meal was served, the staff from the kitchen received the order to prepare even more food for their Master Senior Ninth.He swept clean the food that was prepared for three people consumption before he finally stops himself from continuing. The moment he's done, Zhang Wu Ji remembered that before this, the eight senior brother and sisters of his gave him a collection of eight different books.First Edition Wound Related MedicinePath of Blacksmithing to JewellingUnderstanding Metal - Iron EditionInner Qi and Relationship with Ping An ContinentHistory of Yantai County and their LossesThe Yantai Mandrakes and their Healing PropertiesWhat is Yin? What is Yang?Eternal Sunset, What is that?Looking at the eight slightly rare record books, Zhang Wu Ji felt a hint of warmth given from the book as cold as ice. It was a way of kindness shown by his senior brother and sisters after they been so kind to him. But unfortunately, the eight books did not carry any special properties after being upgraded, so they end up becoming the collection of books for him, and not something to be brought everywhere."Wait... Why do I insist on rewriting the Bone Strengthening Art when I have a shorter version of the Fist of Destruction Qi Manual in hand? This manual only have eleven pages!" he remembered the short Fist of Destruction Qi Manual that was placed on the podium during the sect test, and they were allowed to keep the manual with them as they leave.After considering a while, he decides to drop the Bone Strengthening Art for a moment, and begin to focus on the Fist of Destruction Qi Manual first. With 42 Strands of Inner Qi now, his action was a little faster than before.The only insufficient is the paper that was delivered into his courtyard are beginning to thin, leaving him with only the lowest quality Xuan Paper, a kind of paper perfect for blurry ink drawings but not on taking notes. Left with no choice, he decided to temporary rewrite them for now, but only to be copied into a better grade Xuan Paper once the stock arrived from the Seven Star Sect's management office.By using the worst quality Xuan Paper which were more suitable only for the drawing purposes, Zhang Wu Ji struggles to pen the words on the paper that will blur at the moment they made the contact with the black ink. These struggles make Zhang Wu Ji to a slowdown in his process of writing, but put more attention in the amount of ink he should use in each word, and estimates the spreading of the ink the moment the brush touches the paper.In the first paper, they end up being a trash. It was more accurate to call it a paper dab with ink, and not written. As on the second trial, he succeeds in making them half readable, but it was still considered as a trash. The only weird matter on the paper was their description.Corrupted Pages of Impartment +5Usage: describes the method of Fist, but corruptedDurability: 1/1Special: Learning the move in this page will increase the chances of inner demon appears."How can the page for Fist of Destruction Qi become corrupted page instead? Did I copied them in a wrong way?" Zhang Wu Ji tried to decipher the differences between the two first pages, but except the overspread of inks and some blurry words, nothing unusual is spotted."This... Tell me that's not something incredible in this world." Zhang Wu Ji seems to found out the reason for the pages to become corrupted, but it was something so insignificant to be discerned by somebody who read too much book like him!"I just realized that, In this world, except the description related to the plants, medicine, this world, actually yet to found out the possibility of coloring and describing something through drawing and pictures!""No wonder such a big hall in my master's Reflecting Pagoda, he did not possess a single drawing or art!""But wait. My fourth senior brother is well educated and deeply focused himself in the profession of art, what does that mean?""I should pay my fourth brother a visit!" Zhang Wu Ji packed his important belongings and decided to walk out of his courtyard, after so many days holed inside for various of small matters!
