Everything happened exactly as Zhou Tian had predicted. The sole reason that ore could not be fashioned into a weapon was simply that most people could not melt it. Now that Zhou Tian was capable of using the heat of the magma to melt the ore, it was an extremely simple task for his beastman blacksmiths to shape the ore into a weapon.
No additional materials were necessary, and even the design of the weapon did not need to be overly complex. For Zhou Tian, though the weapon forged from the ore was crucial, its aesthetic could be quite ordinary.
Weapons typically require different materials to enhance their durability and lethality. The design of a weapon, except for those intended for display, is often cleverly crafted to boost their killing power.
However, for Zhou Tian, the weapon that his beastman blacksmiths were creating did not require these considerations. For him, a simple weapon was already the perfect weapon in his mind.
