"Fuhuhu" Kang Seo-Yeon smiled flirtatiously, but the guests pretty much ignored her as all the guests glued to the screen.
"I know you guys have a lot of questions and I ask you Please refrain from asking, because everything will be answered during the show!"
Right after she finished her words, an attendant with the sa attire as Heero's entered the stage. He pushed a trolley with an exceptional box on the top.
"He is the best in swordplay, at least, he is one of the strongest when it cos to a sword. He will demonstrate the difference between the normal sword and Conscious Sword!"
"But before we go with the play, I will go further with the details about the Conscious Sword! Just like its na, the sword has its consciousness!"
As soon as Kang Seo-Yeon reached this point, almost all guests raised their hands. She dismissed the guests with a helpless sigh.
"Please refrain yourself from asking, everything will be explained later! Let finish my lines first!" She raised her tone to a stern tone.
Only then, the guests unwillingly put their hands and put their ears up.
"Have you heard a saying "One with the sword"? You are right, the conscious sword will help you to achieve that realm, making the sword beco part of your body!"
"It sounds absurd but it's true! What you need is to reach resonance with the sword's consciousness! Making the sword accept you then it will help you trendously in achieving "One with the sword" realm!"
"How to resonate with the sword's consciousness? We can't tell everyone about that, but we will give you guidance, only for the owner of this Conscious Sword!"
Kang Seo-Yeon ended her speech by opening the box on the top trolley. Inside the box, the Conscious Sword inside its sheath slumbering.
Word "Xing" was engraved on the sheath. A proof of the sword was made by Heero.
Right after that, another three attendants entered the stage. Each of the male attendants without a mask pushing the trolley with a thick block of steel on top of it.
"It's ti for the show! He will prove the Conscious Sword is not just an ordinary sword and we need one volunteer to help us as well!"
As soon as Kang Seo-Yeon said she needed a volunteer. A hand as fast as a bolt of lightning shot up.
She noticed it from the stage and imdiately called out, "Please, co to the stage!"
Wu Shitian stood up and walked to the stage. There were a few people who called him out. Maybe they want to get his place as a volunteer, but he ignored all of them.
He wanted to try the one so-called "one with the sword".
"Do they think it's so easy that a re sword could achieve that realm!" Wu Shitian sneered under his breath.
"Hello, Grandpa~ May I know your na? But if you don't want to disclose your identity also fine, " Kang Seo-Yeon received Wu Shitian with a sweet smile.
"I don't mind. My na is Wu Shitian, The Supre Guardian - Supre Star!"
As soon as the na revealed his identity, he took off the mask and showed his face to the public.
The noisy hall turned silent in that instant. They were in a daze when they found the one on the stage was the genuine Supre Star, Wu Shitian.
The few people who called the old man rudely. They imdiately turned their head away from the stage. Afraid of being marked by the legendary figure.
"He's genuine! I have seen his face once!"
"Wow! This is my first ti to see the Supre Star directly!"
"Does the Supre Star look for a weapon as well?"
While a few people turned away from Wu Shitian. Most of the guests were surprised and talked amongst themselves. The auction hall buzzed by the voice of conversation.
Kang Seo-Yeon's smile stiffened for a mont. But then, her boyfriend also rejected the sa position and she could talk smoothly with him.
'There's no need to be nervous, he is just a strong old man!'
"Then Let's greet the third volunteer!"
Heero had prepared another volunteer for the show.
A middle-aged man that looked in his mid-forties entered the stage. Wearing casual clothes and a neat hairstyle, the middle-aged man smiled embarrassingly.
"He's an owner of the street vendor that opened a snack stall in our district, Yi Ping! He is just a normal person and our third volunteer for the show!"
Kang Seo-Yeon introduced the third volunteer to the guests. Certainly, the third volunteer brought a surprise to the guests.
"H-hello, everyone" Yi Ping greeted the guests awkwardly.
"With all the casts here, let's start the show!" Kang Seo-Yeon gave enough space for the three people.
After that, Musashi Hirata took the lead in the demonstration by taking out the Conscious Sword from the box.
He sheathed the sword. The Conscious Sword's appearance ca into sight as the sliver light flashed when Hirata sheathed out the sword from its sheath.
He put the sheath on the box and walked toward Yi Ping.
Yi Ping received the sword clumsily. A proof he was not soone who often used a sword, completely a newbie.
He tried to hold the sword "properly" which further embarrassed him.
"Just hold the sword as comfortable as you feel!" Musashi Hirata advised Yi Ping while the latter nodded.
Yi Ping held the longsword with his two hands while Musashi Hirata took the reinforced steel.
"The one our swordsman holds is 50 cm thick reinforced steel. Mr. Yi Ping will try to cut the 50 cm thick reinforced steel with the Conscious Longsword! This is the easiest way for you to see the difference between the conscious sword and the 3- Star Legendary Class Weapon!"
Kang Seo-Yeon briefed the show while Musashi Hirata carried the reinforced steel to the front of Yi Ping.
"Use the sword!" Musashi Hirata instructed Yi Ping.
Even though he had tried this a few tis, Yi Ping was still nervous. He was afraid the sword accidentally hit Hirata.
Taking a deep breath, he slashed the sword in a downward motion. The sword cut through the reinforced.
Maybe Yi Ping did not have enough strength to cut through the reinforced, the sword stopped halfway.
Even so, the guests who saw this had their jaw dropped. Reinforced steel was not just any random steel and not just any sword could even leave a mark on the reinforced steel, let alone cut 50 cm thick reinforced steel halfway, and it was an owner of the snack stall who did that.
"This is the first test that our Epic Class weapon has lived up to its class!" Kang Seo-Yeon proudly explained.
"The second test, we will show you the sword really has a consciousness!"
Hirata placed the reinforced steel down and took the sword from Yi Ping. He handed the sword to Wu Shitian.
The old man received the sword. He felt a weird sensation as soon as his palm held the handle. He furrowed his brows and swung the swords a few tis.
The weird sensation was getting stronger. Wu Shitian felt a slight resistance from the sword, sohow. It was as if the sword truly had consciousness.
He scanned the sword. It was well made, almost no flaw could be found from the sword. Even though he was not a sword user, he was adept with a sword as well.
"Let's try what's so special about you!" The old man muttered as he focused his gaze on the new reinforced steel on Musashi Hirata's hands.
Without he realized, the sword was getting heavier in his hand. The resistance from the sword was getting stronger.
The guests also anticipated Wu Shitian using the sword. If the owner of the street vendor could cut the reinforced steel halfway, then it would be easy for a Supre Star to cut the 50 cm thick reinforced steel.
The reinforced steel arrived in front of him and Wu Shitian raised the sword. Completely different from Yi Ping, the old man was having a solid grasp on the sword.
The old man inhaled a deep breath and held it down.
Swoosh!
The sword descended to the reinforced steel. However, the scene of the reinforced steel being cut by the Supre Star did not happen.
Instead, the sword bounced back after it hit the reinforced steel.
Clang!
Everyone was shocked. Even Wu Shitian himself could not believe what happened. Even without a good sword, he could still leave a deep mark on reinforced steel.
Yet now, not even a scratch, his sword was bounced back from the clash.
An eerie silence followed afterward.
*** ***
"Hahaha Old Man oh Old Man You are too cocky, aren't you? You did not believe the sword truly has a consciousness! You deserve the embarrassnt! Moreover
"This is a small price you have to pay for coveting my secret technique! Also, thank you for your help!"
Heero was taking pleasure at Wu Shitian's embarrassnt from failing to cut the reinforced steel. The Supre Star was inferior to the owner of the street vendor. It would be a stain on his na.
