Capítulo 2009: Prime Alchemist Liang

"Here's your items," Elder Shang said as she handed over a storage bag to Alex. "You are supposed to get a shield too, but because we never expected to get 5 disciples in the same year, you'll have to wait a bit so we can make another one."

Alex took the storage bag and said, "There's no need for that, senior. I received senior Lan's shield. I can just use it."

"But that shield is bonded to him. You won't be able to bond with it in the near future," she said.

"It should take me the same amount of time as it would for the new shield to be made. And then I have to refine that shield too, so there is really no point in making me a new one," Alex said. 

"What about the defects with the shield? There may be some durability issues with that shield," she said.

Alex shook his head. "I've already checked it thoroughly. There are no such issues," he said. "This is fine."

Elder Shang was a bit weirded out. "If you say so."
