order matrix elements and extract the n th element

Dear experts, I have this problem:

I need to sort in ascending order all the elements of a matrix.

I have 26 matrices that are inside a cell-array (26x1). And I have to do this operation (sorting) for all these matrices.

After that, I need to put inside another cell-array the nth (3rd, for example) element of each matrix inside this new cell-array, in the same position of original matrix.

I'll do an easy example:

My cell array (2,1) is composed by 2 matrices, A and B, A in position (1,1) and B (2,1)

 A = [1 4         
     3 9]             

 B = [6 9
      3 8]

I need to create new cell-array (2,1), in which I'll have 4 in position (1,1) and 8 in position (2,1).

Thanks in advance for you help.

Lorenzo

A = [1 4         
   3 9]             
B = [6 9
    3 8]
c={A,B}
c{1}(1,1)=4
c{2}(2,1)=8

Thanks,

but my real matrices are 85x85, not 2x2. I need an algorithm that sorting and after choose 3rd element of the list from every matrices. I can't choose "manually" the 3rd value from 7225 elements.

Other ideas?
