In the blink of an eye, a whole night had passed.
Li Hongyun woke up in the real world, his head still buzzing.
"It's too hard!
"I couldn't forge a single qualified blade all night, it's infuriating!
"Do I have a fake talent or what?
"...It's not that it's useless, but success still seems so out of reach."
Thinking back on his struggle throughout the entire night, Li Hongyun felt a sense of disillusioned busyness.
Every blade he painstakingly forged failed the test for various reasons!
The first two times, the blades cracked directly when chopping hard bone.
Afterward, Li Hongyun reflected on whether the high carbon content was the problem and worked the metal more, only to find that the blade didn't break when chopping bone this time, but it actually bent…
Then, he encountered all sorts of issues, such as not being sharp enough to cut through leather, or having a poor balance that made it impossible to sever a dead pig with all his might.
