Han Fei lowered his head and glanced at Mu Jia’er’s badge.
He was surprised to see that she had a five-star badge. Was this girl a devil?
Han Fei put down the five-star refiner’s book unconcerned and accepted Mu Jia’er’s “Quick Guide For New Refiners”. It only cost three thousand high-quality pearls, which was nothing for Han Fei at all.
Han Fei skimmed through the book and then looked at Mu Jia’er. “Are you really a three-star refiner?”
Mu Jia’er’s face stiffened. She quickly took out another badge and threw it to Han Fei. On the top of the badge was “Refining”, and below it was “Mu Jia’er”, with three stars engraved further down.
Han Fei shrugged and handed the badge back. “Is this the certificate for three stars?”
Mu Jia’er shrieked. “You don’t believe me?”
Han Fei glanced at her. “You are a junior Hanging Fisher, yet you have five stars. I bet you won the stars through refining instead of fighting. Fine, I’m convinced that you are a genius. However, Ms. Genius, I have work to do. Bye bye.”
Mu Jia’er was dumbfounded. I’m a genius! Why didn’t you ingratiate yourself with me?
Hardly had Han Fei walked away when the girl opened her arms and stopped him. “You are too rude. My level is higher than yours, I have more stars than you do, and I’m more talented than you are in refining. Why don’t you cozy up to me? If you do, I might take you as my apprentice?”
Han Fei rolled his eyes and touched her forehead. “You don’t have a fever, but why are you talking nonsense? Your level is higher than mine, but so what? You might not be able to beat me. As for the talent in refining, let’s wait and see if yours is really better than mine.”
“That’s impossible! I’m the second fastest rising refiner on the Scattered Stars Island throughout history!”
Han Fei chuckled. “So you are just the second! Who’s the first place?”
Hearing the derogatory implication in Han Fei’s words, the little girl instantly cried, “Guan Qingyan was only one month faster than me! I’ll definitely surpass him in the promotion as a four-star refiner!”
Han Fei nodded and said, “Okay! Keep it up! However, I have to go. Ms. Genius, goodbye.”
“Pu!”
Mu Jia’er was left behind. She was shocked that this guy didn’t appreciate her kindness.
It had never happened before! He didn’t know how many people dreamed of being her apprentice… No, she had to show him what she was capable of…
“Huh? Where is he?”
Mu Jia’er came back to herself, only to discover that Han Fei was gone. She immediately stomped in fury.
“Damn it, jerk! Don’t ever let me see you again, or I’ll let you know what a refining genius means!”
…
After paying the shopping guide the rent, Han Fei simply went to his No. 198 room.
He didn’t read the books that Mu Jia’er selected for him. Instead, he browsed through the three books on basic refining techniques. A moment later, information popped up in his head.
Spirit Fusing Technique (Demon-Level, High-Quality)
Remark: This is a technique to fuse and forge all things with spiritual energy. It has different effects when used by different people.
Superseding Art: Spirit Fusing Scripture
Completion: 0/500,000
When Han Fei saw “Demon-Level, High-Quality”, he knew that the Refining Hall was probably really short of hands, or they couldn’t have sold such precious techniques for only a thousand high-quality pearls.
Han Fei didn’t want to brag, but if Uncle Faceless were to sell the same techniques, the price he charged would’ve been at least a hundred times higher.
However, a low price was a good thing. It indicated the Refining Hall’s desperate need of refiners. Then, if Han Fei became a three-star refiner, he would make a fortune by refining.
Han Fei deduced the Spirit Fusing Technique without hesitation. Now that he had the privilege to do that, he would rather stand on the shoulder of the giants.
A moment later, all the three refining techniques were deduced.
Spirit Fusing Scripture (Heaven-Level, Low-Quality)
Remark: This is a technique to fuse and forge all things with spiritual energy and can create all kinds of fires. It has different effects when used by different people.
Superseding Art: Spirit Flame Variation
Completion: 0/5,000,000
…
Spirit Polishing Scripture (Heaven-Level, Low-Quality)
Remark: This is a way to extract the essence from all items, including 49 ways of polishing spiritual energy. It has different effects when used by different people.
Superseding Art: God Polishing Technique
Completion: 0/5,000,000
…
Spirit Forging Scripture (Heaven-Level, Low-Quality)
Remark: This is a method to forge the essence of all things and combine it with spiritual energy. It has different effects when used by different people.
Superseding Technique: Heaven Forging Art
Completion: 0/5,000,000
…
Han Fei didn’t continue the deduction. He had realized that it was best to deduce the techniques when he needed to. For example, if he had deduced the Million Knife Art to the highest level at the beginning, he wouldn’t have been able to use it at all.
Just like that, Han Fei spent six hours in the workshop before he finished reading the three books.
In the blink of an eye, Han Fei took out a crab and an assortment of regular materials that had been kept in Forge the Universe.
“Well, I can start by trying to refine a simple magic weapon.”
Han Fei tore apart a crab shell single handedly, and three mystic stones, a fish skin and a bamboo were rolled to the sky by spiritual energy.
Han Fei’s eyes glowed. His Eyes of True Vision allowed him to see the dynamics of the spiritual energy, which had dispersed and was leaking into the materials.
After twenty seconds, the forging was completed.
Han Fei was confused. “Huh? Isn’t that too fast? Did I do something wrong? Never mind. Let’s go to the next step.”
As he squeezed the materials with his spiritual energy, layers of impurities were eliminated. In Han Fei’s senses, those materials would be gone if he continued purifying them, so he hurriedly stopped.
“Huh? That’s not right! It’s done in twenty seconds! Did I try too hard? Forget it. I’ll just combine them first.”
As Han Fei made up his mind, his spiritual energy gathered and fixated the materials.
It still took only twenty seconds.
After a long saber was crafted, Han Fei glanced at it.
Pincer Saber (Low-Quality, Magic Weapon)
Introduction: This is a weapon made with the pincers of the Red Hairy Crab as well as Green Crystals, the Dragon-Headed Fish bone, etc.
Remark: This saber is too brittle due to the over elimination of materials. It was not evenly forged either and may break easily.
Han Fei instantly blushed. Just a low-quality weapon? He only crafted a low-quality weapon by standing on the shoulder of the giants? Throw it off!
A hundred seconds later, another saber was crafted.
Pincer Saber (Low-Quality, Magic Weapon)
Introduction: This is a weapon made with the pincers of the Red Hairy Crab as well as Green Crystals, the Dragon-Headed Fish bone, etc.
Remark: Too little essence was extracted, which results in the weapon’s lack of flexibility. Excessive spiritual energy was invested during the refining.
“No, I have to throw it away. Try again!”
Half an hour later…
Han Fei had already thrown away ten Pincer Sabers. Seven were low-quality and three were mid-quality. None were high-quality.
At this moment, Han Fei was still forging.
“After the materials were melted, I have to use the Spirit Polishing Scripture seamlessly. Not bad, not bad.”
“Well, when my spiritual energy can go through them smoothly, it will mean that the impurities in the materials are cleaned.”
“Combination… I can use my spiritual energy as a sieve and shake the materials to make them balance. That’s an idea.”
Pincer Saber (High-Quality, Magic Weapon)
Introduction: This is a weapon made with the pincers of the Red Hairy Crab as well as Green Crystals, the Dragon-Headed Fish bone, etc.
Remark: It was refined in a standard way, and it’s only plain looking.
“Ha! I knew it would work! But why is it plain-looking? Isn’t it a high-quality, magic weapon? Is there still something wrong? Right, I saw that the spiritual energy was slightly chaotic just now. Do I have to dredge it first? Nevermind. I still have so many materials. Let me try again!”
…
There was no telling how long it had been.
There were more than ninety sabers under Han Fei’s feet, and he was staring at the particular saber before his eyes with a weird look. He rubbed his eyes.
For some reason, he felt that his eyes were sore after he did too much refining. He could almost see the circulation of spiritual energy in the magic weapons. Were his eyes exhausted from the over usage?
A moment later, he rubbed his eyes again.
Pincer Saber (Ultra-Quality, Magic Weapon)
Introduction: This is a weapon made with the pincers of the Red Hairy Crab as well as Green Crystals, the Dragon-Headed Fish bone, etc.
Remark: This weapon was forged in a skilled way with a perfect combination of materials and a smooth circulation of spiritual energy.
“Huh? What’s the level of being able to build an ultra-quality magic weapon? Have I exceeded apprenticeship? Should I try making spiritual weapons?”
When Han Fei was about to try again, someone spoke from the outside.
“Room 198, your time is up. Do you want to renew the lease?”
Han Fei was stunned. Already? He thought he had just got started… Wait, he needed to reunite with Xiaobai and the others. Fine. He might well do refining at home later.
Looking at the floor that was full of magic weapons, Han Fei waved his hands and collected all of them, deciding that he would donate them to the elementary school back in the Blue Sea Town when he returned home.
