Second-hand equipment? Why bother worrying about it.
What I'm using now is Wo Zhiqi's Lifebound Divine Artifact, Divine River Song.
Indeed, armor can sustain some wear and tear during battles. For an Enhancer, repairing the armor's damage isn't a difficult task.
Take, for instance, the set of divine gear from Lingming Ancient Buddha that has fallen before me.
Lingming Ancient Buddha was indeed besieged and killed by the Snake Race in this Secret Realm.
However, the equipment he wore didn't suffer much damage. Lin Yi just needs to spend a bit of time and effort on repairing the equipment, and the set can be restored to like-new condition in no time.
With such good items, why would Lin Yi disdain them just because they are second-hand?
As for equipment, only Divine Artifacts possess self-awareness and choose their own masters. Anything below a Divine Artifact, whether it's epic, legendary, or mythical equipment, lacks self-thought and cannot distinguish between owners.
