Giving it a try, Di Tou found that he indeed could fill these brooms with Qi, only that the broom was all in all more unstable, which made it harder for him to control his Qi. So, with the first damaged broom, he only managed to get in two swipes before it disintegrated.
Following this pattern, Di Tou used the remaining two brooms and cleaned up a little bit more of the room, and when he was done, almost half of the room had been cleaned.
Kneeling and summoning the scroll again, Di Tou went to the [Reflection] page before finding that although no attributes had changed, he had indeed managed to finish a cleaning activity.
"53% efficiency in activity [sweeping leaves], above-average feedback obtained."
