As one of the auction house's trump cards, Heavenly Maiden, Qiqi was an extremely powerful and experienced expert. However, that didn't stop her from her slight nervousness during this particular event.
Unlike the auctions of other years, this event served as a prelude to what would happen in the sect in the coming days. Given the tensions and benefits involved, the sect had made sure to put up many of its best treasures at this auction to smooth the atmosphere and relations between the sect and other forces.
However, the level of the treasures wasn't the only thing that increased; the level of the guests also increased, making Qiqi nervous. From the list she had received earlier, Qiqi knew that at least four sect master-level powerhouses were inside the auction house right now.
