"Oh? Xiao Yang, you want to give it a try?" Hearing Yang Ji's words, Ji Shen was slightly taken aback, while Wang Tianli and Hao Yun also showed a hint of surprise.
"Yes, I would like to give it a try," Yang Ji said with a slight smile.
"Do you understand sword appraisal?" Ji Shen asked.
"Sword appraisal, I know a bit," Yang Ji said with a smile, "First look at the sword's shape, second at its luster, third the craftsmanship, fourth the materials, fifth listen to the sword's hum, sixth observe the spirit of the sword, seventh examine the magical prohibitions inscribed within it, eighth gauge its power, ninth rely on your feeling, and tenth, it's all down to luck."
"A sword is like a person; foremost you look at its spirit. Each sword emits a different Sword Qi and sword essence, be it fierce, domineering, or heavy, and the stronger the attributes of the Sword Dao it reveals, the more formidable the sword, with a correspondingly higher grade," he continued.
