The might of the attack was clearly much stronger than before.
Ling Xian grinned. He could find 10 even if he wasn't serious. If he was serious, he couldn't even beat 20.
"Are you provoking me?" The man in gold's expression darkened.
"Let me."
"I never said I won't give!"
"All weapons made by grandmasters have more than 10 flaws. Why can't your sword have them?" Ling Xian chuckled, knowing that this man was angry.
"I don't think he is lying. Maybe this sword really does have more than 10 flaws."
Seeing that Ling Xian didn't agree, the man in gold was certain that he didn't dare to, "If you can find a few more flaws, then I will give you the heavenly materials."
"Another one who is seeking his own humiliation." The golden-robed man laughed mockingly and welcomed him.
"You sure are addicted to humiliating yourself."
The man in gold snickered, "I am asking you if you dare to!"
The man in gold snickered. It wasn't that he didn't want to admit it, it was that he really didn't think the sword had 10 flaws.
Ling Xian frowned, "So many people are watching. Do you want to embarrass yourself all the way to your grandmother's house?"
"Am I wrong? The truth is right before your eyes, yet you refuse to admit it. "
Out of the 10 heavenly materials the man in gold took out, eight were what he wanted. The other two could be traded for.
The man in gold stared at Ling Xian, "You want to lie to me? Not a chance!"
The man in gold howled, unable to accept this cruel result.
"This time, if you go back on your word, then don't blame me for being rude."
Ling Xian's expression turned cold, "Oh well, if you want to hurt yourself, then I will grant you your wish. But, one flaw, one heavenly material."
Because there were only 10 heavenly materials, he was too lazy to find them.
A soft voice rose, startling everyone. Following the voice, they saw a man in a white robe that was as white as snow.
"Stop wasting time. I sure want to see if you can find the flaws in this sword." The man in gold glared at Ling Xian, full of confidence.
It was Ling Xian.
Most people thought so as well.
"That's right. The man in gold is a grandmaster of crafts. How can a sword of the second realm have 10 flaws?"
"Impossible! That's impossible! "
"Those who don't want to accept failure are pathetic."
Ling Xian's expression was emotionless. Even those who stand at the peak of crafts find it hard to make a perfect weapon, let alone a grandmaster.
Everyone discussed among themselves. Some believed Ling Xian, others thought he was making things up.
Ling Xian shook his head. The sword had far too many flaws. He didn't even have to think about it.
Ling Xian shook his head with a smile. Based on the man in gold's actions and speech, it was obvious that he was not a generous person. It would be strange if he wasn't angry.
Everyone had high expectations at this. They desperately wanted to know if Ling Xian was just bluffing or if he was telling the truth.
The crowd couldn't accept it either, especially the three people who had tried to find the sword's weakness. They found it even more unbelievable.
Ling Xian shook his head and laughed. He didn't know where the man in gold got his courage from. Even if he was a grandmaster, it would be difficult for him to craft a flawless treasure.
The reason why he only spoke of 10 flaws was because there were only 10 of them. If the man in gold took out more, he would've pointed out more flaws.
The man in gold was a grandmaster of crafts. To have 10 flaws was already unbelievable. There was no way he could have more!
Therefore, he opened his mouth and pointed out the 10 flaws of the sword.
To him, this was far too cruel. Not only did it mean Ling Xian was going to take away 10 heavenly materials, it also meant he was going to lose all face!
"This is a provocation."
They were all master craftsmen, yet they couldn't find a single flaw. Yet Ling Xian found 10 flaws. The gap between them was far too large.
The man in gold gritted his teeth, "But I don't accept this. If you have the ability, then find a few more flaws!"
To him, this was easier than eating or drinking.
"Whether or not I'm lying, you'll find out after you try."
"Are you … addicted to humiliating yourself?" Ling Xian looked at the man in gold strangely.
"Is that so?"
Then, he tossed the sword into the cauldron. Following Ling Xian's instructions, he began to fix the flaws.
Ling Xian spoke coldly. The space between his brows began to emit light as he stared at the sword.
Ling Xian softly grinned, "But let me make this clear. I don't care if you get angry or not. If I can find the biggest flaw, then you have to give me the heavenly materials."
"I'm not that angry." The man in gold snickered.
"I don't believe you!"
Ling Xian spoke softly, "I have already found 10 flaws. These 10 heavenly materials should be mine. Why do I have to keep finding flaws?"
This was normal. The man in gold was doing this to show off how excellent he was. He didn't really want someone to point out his flaws.
"What, you want to go back on your word?"
He wasn't a generous person. It was normal for him to be angry.
"Alright, if you can find the flaws, then I will give you the heavenly materials." The man in gold smiled. He had looked at the sword three times and confirmed that there was not a single flaw.
Therefore, to him, this person's request was asking to be humiliated.
He enjoyed the feeling of being admired by others and believed that he had the right to be admired. Therefore, he hoped that the people who tried it would be better and better.
"Find a few more flaws?"
"You are the one who is asking to be humiliated."
Just then, the three-legged cauldron suddenly began to shake. Then, the blood-colored sword pierced through the sky.
Ling Xian glared at the man, "If you can fix the flaws I mentioned, then the sword's power will increase by at least 30 percent. It may even enter the first realm."
"Wrong. You should have said that I can see a few flaws."
The man in gold shouted, "Young man, do you think I am an idiot? How can there be ten flaws in the Dharma treasure that I refined? "
"I am merely stating a fact."
Little did he know that not only did Ling Xian not speak more, he actually spoke less.
Hearing this, the man in gold remained silent.
Every time he spoke, the man in gold's face darkened. In the end, his face was full of anger. "Impossible!"
He didn't know that if he could see the flaws, then he wouldn't be a grandmaster, but a grandmaster.
This meant Ling Xian wasn't bluffing. This sword really did have 10 flaws. After fixing them, its power will increase by 30 percent!
"As you wish."
"Less bullsh * t!"
"I think you don't have the guts."
"Who are you calling pathetic?" The man in gold's face was ferocious and his killer's intent was flickering.
"It's not a question of whether or not I have the guts. It's a question of whether or not it's necessary."
"This sword definitely has flaws. But there can't be as many as 10 flaws."
Therefore, he wanted to find the 10 flaws of the blood-red sword.
"You sure talk big."
Ling Xian glared at the man and felt too lazy to waste any more time, "Give me the heavenly material."
Ling Xian was stunned. He didn't think this person would make such a strange request.
His shocked expression fell into the eyes of the man in gold and became a sign that he couldn't find any flaws in the sword.
The man in gold glared at Ling Xian and said, "You don't have to talk. If you have the ability, then find the flaws of this sword."
