Time- 16:23

Location- Sun Blossom City, Card Creationist Association, Auction house, VIP Venue

Just when Eliza was about to excuse herself knowing that she could not convince Lucy to wait, I offered, "Let me take her to place her bid for an energy sword card. I am heading there to place my bid anyway."

"That's so sweet of you to offer help, Wyatt. But Lucy doesn't react well to people she just met," Eliza avoided using the word strangers feeling it was not appropriate to use for a friend.

"Okay, I get it. So how about we save the small talk for later and let us head to bid for the energy sword cards together?" I said looking at Lucy who was getting more impatient as we discussed.

"..." Eliza did not immediately agree but instead looked at Rami and Cheng, with them present here she would be out of turn to agree for them.

"Yes, we can continue this talk later. For now, let us head to bid for the energy sword cards." Cheng agreed to my decision.

Then we all ahead towards the glass column encasing the energy swords and looked at the highest bid placed so for each energy sword card. The average highest bid placed for the nine energy sword cards was around 250 median soul jades i.e 2500 low soul jades. The auction has just started and the bids for each of the energy sword cards were already very high for a C-rank card.

Card Durability: [89/100]

Card Effect: When activated card apprentice can summon a sword made of soul energy supplied by the card apprentice.

Additional Effect: Crit Hit +5, Crit Rate increased by 45%, Penetration +7, Energy Slash, Damage absorption.

Note: The strength of the energy sword summoned increase with the purity of the soul energy used to create it.]

Energy slash: It is a long-ranged attack where the card apprentice can gather extra soul energy at the edge of the energy sword and hurl it at the enemy.

Damage absorption: With every clash, the energy sword absorbs 10 percent of the total force applied to it. When the absorbed energy meets the minimum requirement to launch an Energy slash, the energy sword starts glowing. As the absorbed energy stored increases the glow on the energy sword gets brighter.

For a C-rank card, the additional stats and skills given by the energy sword card were quite attractive. No wonder the sun blossom city's card creationist association did not hesitate to use them as the main attraction and flagship cards for the auction.

The reason I was interested in this card was because of its unique characteristic that allowed these cards to break through the limits of their rank. The energy sword's characteristic that I spoke of was that it grew stronger based on the purity of the soul energy supplied by its card apprentice to summon it. Other card apprentices can't use this card's characteristic to its fullest like I could thanks to my four times refined soul energy as in this third-rate city there weren't many card apprentices who knew about refining their soul energy to make it purer let alone refining their soul energy for four times. In my hands, the energy sword cards would achieve their best and be used more efficiently.

Ever since the tournament, I have been in search of a good weapon card or card recipe in the market but compared to the crazy sci-fi weapons I had in my mind, the weapon cards and card recipes that I can access in the third-rate city were distasteful and a waste of time. But these energy sword cards take the cake. Along with the card's unique characteristic that I can take advantage of its additional stats and skills were too good for me to pass on such cards. Therefore I had decided that no matter the cost I will win the bid for all nine energy swords.

Calculating the highest price a family from a third-grade city would be willing to bid for a C-rank card like the energy sword cards, I decided to bid 500 median soul jades for each of the energy sword cards. 500 median soul jades meant 5,000 normal soul jades, it was too high of a price for a C-rank card but these cards were what I wanted and what was the use of hoarding money if I could not spend a little extra to buy something that I wanted? I had a very tight grip when it came to spending money but when I find something I want and which could add to my strength, I was not the one to hold back. Hence I did not hesitate to show a willingness to spend 4500 median soul jades to buy all nine of the energy swords.

"Wyatt, how much are you going to bid for the card?" Eliza asked as she and Lucy were thinking of the right number within Lucy's budget to place a winning bid for the card.

"I plan to bid 500 median soul jades for each energy sword card," I found no harm in answering Eliza honestly as it was not possible for me to place my bids anonymously, which meant she would know what I bid as soon as I placed my bid.

"500 median soul jades for each of the energy sword card, that is 4500 median soul jades. Are you crazy? These cards are worth 180 median soul jades each in the market, if not for the rarity of card ingredients used in the creation of these cards, they would not be worth a single low soul jade. What I am trying to say is that 250 soul jades were already a lot for these cards and not to mention that one person or an organization is only allowed to bid on one energy sword card, you can't bid for all of them." Eliza was shocked to hear that I planned to bid 500 median soul jades for each of the energy sword cards.
