Chapter 88: Don’t Talk About the Past as if it Were Clouds and Smoke
Xue Rengui, on a whim, took up his Square Sky Halberd and stepped out of the door, wielding the halberd with such vigor that it created a fierce wind, quite a sight to behold.
"This lad has excellent bone structure and carries great fortune. Brother Dao indeed has good eyesight to have discerned this at a glance," Yuan Tiangang said with a smile.
"Haha, hahaha! Brother Dao flatters me too much. It was merely a stroke of luck that I sensed the changes in the Heavenly Dao and discovered him. How could I possess such remarkable vision?" The Heaven-Defying Taoist laughed in response.
He sensed Xue Rengui when he was refining the Great Revolution Seal. As soon as the seal was completed, he noticed some fluctuations in the Heavenly Dao and found Xue Rengui, leading to this apprenticeship. Indeed, Xue Rengui proved to be outstanding in the days that followed. Yet this is a story for later and isn’t mentioned now.
Holding the halberd, Xue Rengui practiced for a while, feeling exceptionally exhilarated.
The Heaven-Defying Taoist said, "This halberd hasn’t been named yet. You should name it."
After pondering for a moment, Xue Rengui replied, "This halberd is forged from the melting of myriad weapons of our Great Tang. Thus, let it be named ’Tang Halberd’!"
The Heaven-Defying Taoist felt the name was not quite suitable but was too lazy to argue and simply said, "It will do."
Yuan Tiangang remarked, "Brother Dao, your artifact refining skills have become increasingly impressive."
Indeed, Wukong’s artifact refining skills had improved considerably after creating the Great Revolution Seal.
The Heaven-Defying Taoist replied, "Brother Dao overpraises me, it’s just passable."
