Why say it was to watch, and not to participate?
Because Chu Hao had far too few Star Stones on him.
Right, these Star Stones, if only used for cultivation, would suffice for at least a year without worry. But, when it came to buying something expensive, like a Treasure Artifact or a Cultivation Technique, blowing all of his stash might not even secure him one.
He simply wanted to gain some insight, since he had never attended an auction here before.
Because he possessed the Identity Token of an Inner Sect Disciple of Yunliu Sect, Chu Hao could directly enter without paying a deposit. However, he was just an ordinary Inner Sect Disciple, not a Core Disciple, so he didn't qualify to enter the private boxes on the second floor, and could only sit in the main hall with others.
Soon, the auction began under the guidance of an old man.
