Chapter 105 - A Gathering Of The Strong

"Who is he?"

A young man with a refined demeanor and a smiling face greeted the bosses of various gangs, appearing very familiar with them and having a good relationship.

His dignified temperament engendered a favorable impression, and his sincere smile made people feel close to him. Especially the bosses of the major gangs were very friendly towards him, and some of the minor gangs even had flattering expressions. This extraordinary treatment was enviable.

"He's the number one on the wealth rankings, the first to establish an auction house in 'King of Glory,' and the owner of the Shangmeng Auction House – QianXing TianXia."

"He's QianXing TianXia?"

I was surprised.

"What's wrong?"

"He's so young. I thought QianXing TianXia was a middle-aged person, about forty or fifty years old, full of commercial aura. I never expected him to be so young."

He was far different from the QianXing TianXia I had imagined.

No wonder the bosses of those major gangs were so friendly towards him. After all, the Shangmeng Auction House was the first established auction house, and the circulation of equipment at its auctions was not to be underestimated. It was the object of admiration for every gang boss who wanted to improve their gang's capabilities and buy good equipment. And just thinking about the absolute gold coins QianXing TianXia possessed made people even more envious.

"Heh, today's young people are not simple, with outstanding abilities. It's just like the rising waves pushing forward the ones before them, one generation stronger than the last," Old Wine muttered to himself in amazement.

I could tell that Old Wine admired QianXing TianXia very much, his eyes filled with appreciation for him, even though QianXing TianXia was Old Wine's biggest competitor.

Impressive, truly admirable!

One had to admire QianXing TianXia. When Old Wine auctioned off the "Gang Building Order," which dealt a huge blow to QianXing TianXia's Shangmeng Auction House, he still attended Old Wine's auction with a smile on his face.

No matter what he was thinking in his heart, as long as he could do this, he was not someone those arrogant rich kids could catch up to, and it would bring him great renown. As the saying goes, "the one at the bottom will benefit."

"That slightly chubby middle-aged man is WoAi JinBi."

"Yes."

Not far from QianXing TianXia, a slightly chubby middle-aged man responded enthusiastically to the bosses' greetings and flattery, clearly the owner of the Money Auction House, WoAi JinBi. He looked like a businessman.

Powerful, he is indeed a shrewd businessman. It's no wonder they are the two most outstanding auction houses in 'King of Glory.' Based on their temperament and insight alone, they are not to be underestimated. One can clearly see their exceptional abilities.

Looking at the present scene, the bosses of the three major auction houses in "King of Glory" have gathered here, along with all the top figures in the game. One cannot help but admire the fame and influence of the auction organized by Old Wine Auction House, and one can also infer its impact on the future.

Indeed, this is a gathering of the strong, a meeting of the powerful.

But thinking about it, although Old Wine's organization of this auction was very successful, it was my "Gang Building Order" that attracted these strong players here. I couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction.

Looking at these strong players, not a single one is a pushover. It must be said that there are too many strong players in "King of Glory", and the competition is fierce. Fortunately, I did not intend to establish a faction or achieve fame this time. I'm afraid it won't be so easy for me to lead the pack, even with the strength of our Eagle King.

I am now a lone traveler, self-sufficient, fighting alone. I am confident that no one can surpass me, and no one is my match.

"Stone, it's time. I'm going to the auction."

"Okay."

Old Wine knew I wouldn't show up, so he gave me a heads up and went to the auction podium.

At eight o'clock sharp, the Old Wine auction officially began. The moment Old Wine, the owner of Old Wine Auction House, walked out from behind the stage, the noisy arena suddenly fell silent. Every player was staring at today's brightest star, the auction host, Old Wine, who was auctioning off today's main item, the "Gang Building Order". This honor made all the players envious, and at this moment, the gazes of admiration and envy from everyone present were even more jealousy-inducing.

Looking at the sea of players in the arena, Old Wine felt a rush of pride that came with being in the spotlight, giving him a sense of impulsiveness that was unusual for someone who was used to being high and mighty in real life. After all, facing so many players in real life is impossible, but in the game, not only these players, but more players can be organized.

No wonder the competition in the game is so fierce. For many players, the feeling of standing out and being on top in front of thousands or even billions of players is a pursuit of glory.

Old Wine is sure that if he were young, he would not be able to resist the temptation of this honor and power, and would step onto the path to become a strong player, fighting hard and striving for the glory of being the best.

Old Wine cleared his throat, spouted some boring opening remarks and thanks, and began today's auction.

Old Wine's auction was quite impressive. According to the grade of the items, the auction was divided into four different tiers and conducted in four stages.

Firstly, eight intermediate-level golden equipment items were auctioned. These eight pieces of equipment were announced by Old Wine in the "Gang Building Order" auction. Old Wine auction house's reputation was skyrocketing, and players entrusted Old Wine to auction their equipment after seeing the popularity of this event.

The second stage auctioned my "Gang Building Order". Old Wine did not follow the ordinary auction method and place the auction's protagonist "Gang Building Order" at the end. Instead, it was placed in the second stage, which was a great idea.

The third stage was for my several advanced golden equipment items, including War Bear Armor, Kabarou's Board Axe, Black Iron Wolf Tooth Club, and Wind Thunder Staff. I originally thought that Old Wine would auction all the golden equipment together, but Old Wine believed that there was a significant difference between intermediate and advanced golden equipment. Separating the auction could better attract players.

The last stage, which is the fourth stage, mainly auctioned over 100 blue equipment items ranging from level 20 to level 25. Old Wine arranged the lowest-level blue equipment items to be auctioned at the end. Although he did not explain the reason for doing so, I have already seen the purpose of Old Wine's auction method, and I couldn't help but secretly admire Old Wine's organizational skills.

My advanced golden equipment items are definitely excellent equipment, and for these big gangs, the temptation for the gang leader to make a strong leveling effort is no less than the "Gang Building Order."

However, if these advanced golden equipment items were auctioned before the "Gang Building Order," these big gangs would be difficult to handle. They would not dare to shout high prices, lest it would affect the "Gang Building Order." Before auctioning the "Gang Building Order," they had to save every gold coin.

If these advanced equipment items were auctioned after the "Gang Building Order" was bought, the gangs that did not get the "Gang Building Order" would vigorously attack the equipment they liked without any scruples.

As for those blue equipment items ranging from level 20 to level 30, Old Wine did not believe that VIP players would compete with ordinary players under the light hall. Although several gangs had contacted Old Wine before the auction, expressing their willingness to buy this batch of blue equipment to arm their members, they would not do such a faceless thing in front of so many players. If they cared about ordinary blue equipment, it would only make others look down upon them.
