The corners of Tang Tian's mouth lifted slightly.
He picked up the still-warm frame and hefted it in his hand.
"This isn't just any ordinary frame."
Still puzzled, the three of them headed back.
They returned to the Blue Silver Mimicry Training Ground on Back Mountain.
Tang Tian set the frame on a flat bluestone and silently called out:
Little Iron Hammer, come out and try your sofa.
The next second, under Tang San's and Xiao Wu's astonished gazes, light flashed in Tang Tian's right hand.
There was no heavy clang of metal.
Instead, there were specks of starlight.
The miniature Little Iron Hammer appeared in his hand.
Then she floated lightly out of his grasp.
[Little Iron Hammer (eyes shining, drooling): Wow!!! Is this... is this for me?!]
Little Iron Hammer lunged forward; she had always hovered in midair before.
Yet now, just like a real little girl,
she settled comfortably into the frame made from dragon-pattern steel.
The dragon patterns on the frame visibly seemed to come alive.
They shone in harmony with the dark glow on Little Iron Hammer.
[Little Iron Hammer (rolling around wildly): So comfy! So incredibly comfy! This metallic texture, this hard, cool touch...] [This is what top-grade metal feels like! Ah~ This is my luxurious sofa!] [You dummy, Tang Tian, I never knew you had such a taste for the good life! I love you to death!] [Looks like I misunderstood that dummy Tang Tian before!] [Hehe!] [Ding! Little Iron Hammer's affection increased by 20 points.] [Current affection: 34/100 (ordinary)] [Congratulations, host. Reward obtained: Advanced Blacksmith Skill.]
As the system notification faded,
Tang Tian felt a boom go off inside his head.
Countless pieces of knowledge about metal properties, forging techniques, and heat control surged in like a tide.
