"So as to match our slogan, I present you our last item for today's auction…"
"The Unique 'Omni Crystal' Collection!"
"Hmmm?"
"What's that supposed to be?"
"Is it a collection of elental crystals…?"
"How long has it been since elental crystals have been included in this auction…?"
"Well, it's usually only grade 3 elental crystals and above that qualify to appear in this auction, but I wonder of which elent would these crystals be…"
"The na seems to hint at sothing…"
The auctioneer didn't reveal the item from the very beginning, seemingly leaving the participants a chance to guess and get more excited to know what was this collection supposed to hold…
"Could it be…?"
Still, he didn't wait to long before he revealed the veil off the collection, revealing the whole collection of 111 elental crystals put in a unique way to show their allure, while emphasising the main 10 grade 2 crystals.
Elental Crystals are originally transparent as if they were a piece of glass, which would change color according to its attribute once one touched it, so one wouldn't be able to guess the crystals' attribute from first glance…
As for the Pseudo 'Omni-Elent' elental crystals of mine, their unique trait was that they changed color according to the holder's attribute, which is why inspecting it normally didn't prove it to be any special as one had to inspect it using ntal energy.
So at this point, in the eyes of the spectators, this auction closer was…
"Huh? Aren't these simple grade 1 & 2 crystals…?"
"Their number isn't sothing special as well, did the auction house simply run out of items or sothing…?"
"Is this so sort of joke?!"
Inadequate!
Imagine you were expecting to get a birthday cake for your birthday party, only to find that they got you a cupcake with a candle above it, however, while in birthday parties, it's normally the thought was what matters, that wasn't the case in such a premium auction that had the strongest powers in the whole domain participating in it…
"Please calm down, esteed guests, as I already noted, these of course aren't normal elental crystals, as for why they are unique, please allow to display it to you before explaining further."
"Oh, so they are planning to end it with a small show!"
"Interesting…"
The noise started to go down after the auctioneer's few words, waiting for him to prove what he has just said…
Clap. Clap.
The auctioneer clapped lightly with his hands as a man and a woman duo dressed iclad in heavy armor ca from behind the curtain.
They both bowed slightly before heading towards the site where the crystals are displayed as they both grabbed one crystal from the sa place but at different ends without hesitation…
As the crystals ca in contact with their hands, the only bare part of their body, the transparent color started to change. Of course, they didn't change to the sa color as the one in the female warrior's hand changed to a pale blue color, while the one in the male warrior's hand changed to red…
"Hmmm… a collection of varied elental crystals…?"
"That does indeed sa a bit hard to co by, but doesn't that make it useless?!"
"Maybe it's ant to be a collections item, after all they nad as such from the beginning…"
The inexperienced sect mbers who seed to have participated in this auction for the first ti already started making guesses without waiting for the auctioneer's confirmation that the display was done, but as the voices from the VIP booths were mostly silent, the auctioneer gestured for the duo to continue with what they were doing…
The duo warriors nodded before exchanging the crystals in their hands, as the color of the crystals disappeared for an instant before another color took over…
"Eh?!"
"What…?"
The sa inexperienced sect mbers showed their own expression of disbelief before a voice ca from one of the VIP booths which caused the newbies to fall silent for a few seconds…
"A 'Dual-Elent' elental crystal! One that contains two elents that have polar opposite characteristics as well!"
"To think I would actually find it here! Hahaha, this type of elental crystals was ntioned in my Yin Yang Scripture. fellow practitioners, I hope you won't fight with for this as it's vital to my Yin Yang sect's developnt, I will be sure this favor as soon as possible!"
"Don't worry, Master Yang! Since it's such a crucial item for your sect, we won't trouble you then, not that it's going to be that useful for us anyway!"
"Indeed!"
"Congratulations for finding a fated treasure!"
As the vigorous voice announced his own false deduction, voices ca out from other VIP booths as to congratulate the vigorous master Yang and show their support…
'Luckily, it isn't what they think it is, or else I might have lost a lot as no one seems to want to ss with that master Yang.'
"The Elental Blade Sect will compete for it fairly."
'Oh!'
However, it seed that the 'Elental Blade Sect' had another say as it seed they didn't plan to give face for that master Yang…
"Humph, why are you not announcing the minimum bid already?!"
Clearly annoyed by the reaction of the 'Elental Blade Sect', Yang defused his anger by shouting at the auctioneer.
Yet, as if to display he isn't a pushover as well, the auctioneer simply ignored Yang's protest as he himself walked back to the display site and took both crystals from the duo…
"Why you… huh?!"
The annoyed Yang who was about to fly from anger as he was not only ignored once or twice could only shut up briefly as the color of the crystal changed once again to a green cyan color…
"It can't be… if it isn't a 'Dual-Elent' elental crystal, then… then… the na implied at the beginning really ant…?"
The dumbfounded and intermittent voice of the person who judged the elental crystals to be 'Dual-Elent' elental crystals at first sounded out as it threw the participants into a bigger wave of confusion...
