Chapter 11 - End of Auction

The auctioneers and the guards tried their best to ease the dissatisfaction of the customers. The owner walk up and said

"Hello everyone, I am YanDi the owner of this auction. Please don't listen to what they say."

While looking at YingLei room. He continued

"How can someone tell whether an egg which is unhatch dead or alive so don't trust their words. Please I promise this egg is very much alive."

Wudao spoke

"How can you prove is alive?"

Killing intent form in the YanDi's eyes

"Hmph, when have our auction sell unusable items? Since you asked my to prove whether the egg is alive why don't you prove to me the egg is dead."

Wudao replied

"2 years ago, you guys auction a dragon and hidden its severe wounds. After the auction ends the dragon died a few hours later due to those untreated wounds. The Head of Prime Auction had to personally give triple the price the person bought the dragon as compensation and made public speech saying that it promised to not give anymore wounded or worst, dead creatures to auction."

The YanDi truly wish nothing more than to rip them apart, to think something happen in a kingdom yet this bumpkins knew about it. Hearing what WuDao said, everyone including the duke was shocked that something like this happen. The reason the dukes no knowing about the happen was because auctions in the kingdom only invite people with nobilities king or above or with high amount of fame that stands almost equal to a king are allowed or tier 7 and above blacksmith or alchemist. WuDao added

"To prove whether is dead is easy check the temperature of the egg I am sure few people here have learn either heat or froze technique in other words they can measure the temperature as they are sensitive to it. But whether you allow them or not is another queation."

Hearing what WuDao said YanDi shivered he gave a glance and signal to one of his henchman to fake they examin the egg and determine that its dead to save face for the auction. The henchman did as told and after that YanDi said

"My apologise, we erred in such a way. Then again human aren't perfect right? haha let's continue the auction shall we."

The 8th item was brought up on stage. It is a halberd with an giant axe like shape on its side. The auctioneer siad

"This is called the Judgement Spear. Forged by a tier 8 Blacksmith in the Spear Kingdom. It took a total of 6 months to forged the spear to where it is now. After careful examination we have determined this is an epic grade equipment 4th highest quality an equipment can have. The starting bid is 50 platinum coins each bid must be an increament of 20 platinum coins."

YingLei never had interest in spears so he choose to wait for the next item to be up on stage. The bid was much slower compared to the others but each bid is steeper than the others. Thus easily reaching several thousand of Platinum coins. But soon the 5 dukes fought using low tier energy crystals and since it was the 5 dukes no one tried bidding against them.

After awhile, the item was sold to the duke in the 3rd room. Thus, further anger the duke in room 2.

Soon the 9th item came out, is was an unusual herb. As the herb was placed and the box was opened, the room temperatuer in the auction house immdiately raise. YingLei's father said

"To think the auction house would auction the thousand sun herb. YingLei this herb is one of the 100 purest yang elemental herb is will be useful in hatching the egg."

YingLei nodded to his father statement.

The auctioneer said

"This is known as the Sun Birth Yang herb.

The no.70 of the yang herb elements the starting price 100 low tier energy crystals. As this is part of an auction the price is cheaper so please bid away. A gentle reminder this will be the last item in the auction." The duke wasted no time a bid while in YingLei's room, WuDao and YingLei's father jeers at the auctioneers for promoting its product to such an extend, truly despicable. But despite that, they still decided to bid as they needed it for the dragon. As the bid hit 500 low-tier energy crystals, WuDao bidded 2 mid-tier energy crystals. which meant 2000 low-tier energycrystal in terms of exchange rate but everyone who used energy crystal to cultivate knew that even 2500 low-tier energy crystals are not enough to possess the same level of energy in it.

Once WuDao bid, everyone stopped as noone had more wealth than him. Thus once the item was presented everyone was ready to leave, as everyone stood up a masked man walked up to the stage and said

"Everyone please remain seated as there was just a sudden item that was added to the auction a few seconds ago."

after he said that a lady with a hourglass body walks up to the stage with what seems to be a little bottle. Once the bottle was placed on the table in the center of the stage. The masked man said

"This bottle contains 3 energy purifying pill at 85% purity which an alchemist at the 8 tier which to auction. I am sure everyone knows the purpose of the pills so please place a bid. The alchemist does not wish for anything related to monetary. He just wish for assistance in getting a special herb. The herb is located at Alt Vis Gor forest. Those who are willing please raise your hand. We only accept 3 people, and cultivation within or above combat realm."

But noone stood up for 3 reason

1) The longer one cultivate the more they cherish their life.

2) This is marely a city of baron so is tough to find combat realm cultivators.

3) Most cultivators of the spirit realm have already heard of how dangerous it is and there is a reason to why people called it the forbidden realm.

WuDao wanted to raise his hand as he had been trained in the forest thus he knows the terrain but YingLei's fsther shook his head thus WuDao sits down as for YingLei seeing that both WuDao and his father not wanting to tell him about this forest, he knows that the forest is definitely dangerous to an extent. YingLei's father said

"Let's go this is none of our concern."

The masked man saw that YingLei group wanted to leave he was angry as noone had done this to him. So he shouted

"Those that wishes to leave can only die."

Seeing them stopped he thought that he had frighten them thus he was in glee. But unknown to him WuDao was angry to the core. Noone had even dare threaten him since he had reach his current position. Thus he asked YingLei's father if he could act as he pleased. Surprisingly to YingLei his father nodded unbeknown to him the number of beings died in his hand easily exceed the number of meals YingLei have eaten in this life. Seeing that YingLei father nodded WuDao broke the glass from the room to the stage and flew above looking down everything below like a god would to a mortal world nothing but despise. Seeing that he flew everyone shivered, to think someone above the void realm is here. Although dukes themselve are able to fly they just merely knew the basics of it and can't easily fly, as they barely touch void realm but they are still considered combat realm.
