"…Only once. And it was just a test dagger, nothing expensive."
They both laughed, and Han Yu took another look at the glaive in his hands. It wasn't a top grade spirit weapon, but with its new form and solid design, it felt like a solid foundation. And maybe, one day, he could turn it into something more—something worthy of a hybrid class.
"Thanks," Han Yu said, sincerely this time. "This is more than I expected."
Mu Zhi beamed. "Just promise me one thing."
"What?"
"If anyone asks who did it… tell them it was me."
Han Yu grinned. "Sure. I'll make sure the whole sect knows Mu Zhi's name. Especially if this glaive survives me punching another salamander's head off."
Mu Zhi paused. "…Please don't test it on salamanders."
Having obtained the glaive, Han Yu made his way back to the courtyard to do some personal testing and a bit of rest.
