The law book Zheng Qing used was a standard issue provided by the school for cost students, with a deer skin cover and mulberry paper, capable of carrying most spells at the registered wizard level; the feather pen he used was also quite ordinary, retailing for seven copper coins per piece at Green Grocery, and if you bought more than ten at once, the store would reduce the price by one copper per piece.
"So, you need a more powerful pen, as well as a similarly powerful law book." The Little Green Snake chattered away in his ear, spewing valueless nonsense.
"I need a sufficiently powerful pen and a sufficiently sturdy law book." Zheng Qing opened his mouth at the same time, almost word for word repeating the Little Green Snake's nonsense.
There was no need for him to emphasize.
The other wizards present all noticed what had just happened.
