"Oh! This is pretty impressive!"
Tai Tan looked at the large workshop before him and nodded.
Calcining Furnaces and Anvils were neatly arranged on the floor, while piles of iron ore and lumber stood along the walls.

But Tai Tan noticed a few differences. The design of the Calcining Furnaces, for instance, had changed, allowing heat to spread more evenly over the materials being fired.
There were also two new Power Hammers that relied on neither human labor nor waterpower. After examining them carefully, Tai Tan discovered that they could be driven by the steam produced by boiling water.
What surprised Tai Tan even more, however, was that soul power could also be used to activate and control them.

He had made these two Power Hammers while slacking off over the past few days. Their internal Power Furnaces used the design everyone had discussed back at Shrek, though he had scaled it down considerably.
Tang San had roughly grasped the process of making Soul Tools, but he still needed time to slowly decipher the core formation patterns. At present, he had no other Soul Tools available to study.

He had originally assumed that Tang San's forging skills were only a little better than an apprentice's. After all, Tang San's soul power cultivation was absurdly high, so he must have only studied forging in his spare time.
Now, it seemed he would have to rate Tang San's
