After pondering briefly, Zhang Yanhang suddenly realized a problem, "That Refined Crimson Iron Short Sword of mine seems to have been crafted by myself, and all I did was simply sharpen it. Could that be why it barely made it over the passing line?"
Zhang Yanhang felt, somewhat unexpectedly, that this reason had a high likelihood of being true. After all, he knew his own abilities best, and he often found the item descriptions brutally honest in grading his craftsmanship as 'trash.'
"Looking at it this way, the reason my Refined Crimson Iron Short Sword scored so low might really have something to do with me. If it were made by another blacksmith or an alchemist, it should at least be turned into a piece of equipment with a medium score of Dark Purple Quality, or even one with a high score of Dark Purple Quality."
Having understood the main reason, Zhang Yanhang sighed silently. However, improving his crafting skills was not something he could resolve at the moment.
