I am reading Programming Bitcoin (chapter 7 exercise 5) and I have created a 2 inputs 1 output transaction on testnet which I have signed and it now verifies as true. When I go broadcast the transaction on "https://blockstream.info/testnet/tx/push" I get this error:

sendrawtransaction RPC error: {"code":-26,"message":"mandatory-script-verify-flag-failed (Signature must be zero for failed CHECK(MULTI)SIG operation)"}

Code:

target_address = 'mrXqfcAxxs75ertpHpwKsSmgSs4UPc8t1N'
target_amount = 0.00007370-0.00001000
prev_tx_0 = bytes.fromhex('17782270d1bfdcf3956efbfa49e90b74a2797819b09abd0460cffc69557f219c')
prev_tx_1 = bytes.fromhex('803f028f53b4a784bfb0b27eb05ef908e6a661fdfac791bc1dcde15d6325365b')

tx_ins = []
tx_ins.append(TxIn(prev_tx_0,1))
tx_ins.append(TxIn(prev_tx_1,0))
tx_outs = []
h160 = decode_base58(target_address)
script_pubkey = p2pkh_script(h160)
target_satoshis = int((target_amount)*100000000)
tx_outs.append(TxOut(target_satoshis,script_pubkey))

tx_obj = Tx(2,tx_ins, tx_outs, 0, testnet = True)
secret = secret
priv = PrivateKey(secret=secret)
print(tx_obj.sign_input(0,priv))
print(tx_obj.sign_input(1,priv))
print(tx_obj)
tx_obj.sign_input(0,priv)
tx_obj.sign_input(1,priv)
tx_obj.serialize().hex()
