After school, he asked Tang Wulin to forge a huge chopping saber for him, while he planned how to face the zombie on his next return.

• Xu Qing probed an ordinary crystal core with his Spiritual Power, and a destructive force invaded his mind until the Five-Clawed Golden Dragon drove it away.
• Xu Qing passed out, and a faint golden light covered him as golden scales grew on his neck and arms and his body strengthened.
• Xu Qing woke, locked away the crystal cores, and went to school with Gu Yuena after breakfast with his family.
• During class, Xu Qing wondered about the force in the cores and planned to upgrade his weapon before facing the zombie again.
• Xu Qing showed Tang Wulin a drawing of an oversized chopping saber and asked him to forge it, and Tang Wulin agreed.

Tang Wulin brought Xu Qing’s saber blueprint to Mang Tian, who suggested adding tungsten steel. At home, Xu Qing used his Five-Clawed Golden Dragon power while absorbing a crystal core, increasing his strength, Soul Power, Spiritual Power, and blood vitality as Gu Yuena sensed his powerful dragon presence.
