According to the invitation's information, the Sky Vessel auction was scheduled to begin at 8:15 A.M., expected to last an hour and a half, after which lunch would be provided.
Liang Qu went through his morning exercises, took a bath to wash away the sweat, and after rummaging through his wardrobe, he chose a black outfit with red trim, very plain but form-fitting, gifted by his master's wife in May.
Since becoming a disciple, he had hardly bought any ordinary clothing, only a few pairs of socks and shoes.
Every change of season, his master's wife would send someone with clothing, all in nice styles, completely on trend.
An auction wasn't an occasion to dress in extreme luxury; those who received invitations were all of remarkable status. Brother Xu and others would certainly be there, should he try to outshine them in finery?
Wouldn't that just be intentionally humiliating himself?
