"Primordial Water Spirit Pattern? What a wonderful pulsing rhythm, full of endless vitality," said the young master, stopping in his tracks, "It does bear some resemblance to the Primordial Water Spirit Crane egg. Thirty thousand isn't too cheap, is it?"
"Your keen observation skills are truly commendable, young master. They say that treasures are bestowed upon heroes, and only a young lord like you..." At this, the independent cultivators' faces lit up in delight.
But before they could finish, the young master interjected, "Unfortunately, you all lack education and have never seen a real Primordial Water Spirit Crane egg. Typically, these eggs weigh more than two pounds. This egg, however, is rounded at both ends and weighs less than a pound... it's most likely a large goose egg, right? Alas, even frauds are lackadaisical these days among independent cultivators."
