Zhao Hun and Zhao Ziyu sat side by side, their expressions inscrutable as they watched the auction items appear one after another on the display stand.

"Kunpeng first met that kid at the auction. He definitely won't miss such an important opportunity! We can't go wrong by waiting here!"

After listening to Zhao Ziyu's deduction, Zhao Hun frowned and nodded.

He was somewhat skeptical of Zhao Kunpeng's words.

After all, those qualified to attend the auction are all wealthy and powerful, but Zhao Kunpeng said that the other party looked extremely unfamiliar and did not seem to be from the Yandu circle.

How is that possible?

But when he thought about how the other party had taken advantage of his absence on a mission to break into his home and beat his younger brother half to death, and how Zhao Kunpeng was still barely clinging to life with the help of various sophisticated medical devices, Zhao Hun suppressed all his doubts and anxieties.

No matter who it is, anyone who dares to touch the Zhao family must pay the price!

At this moment.

The man sitting to Zhao Ziyu's left suddenly spoke up.

"You can cause as much trouble as you want, but everything has to wait until the auction is over, and don't provoke the people at this mythical beast auction house."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Ziyu quickly smiled and moved closer.

"Honey, don't worry, I know who I can mess with and who I can't! Besides, that guy broke into our house and injured Kunpeng, which is clearly a slap in your face! Even if it weren't for Kunpeng, I would still teach him a lesson for you!"

After listening, Xiao Jialong didn't say anything more and turned his gaze back to the exhibition stand.

He had long heard of the extraordinary nature of this divine beast auction house, but due to his busy official duties, he had not been able to find the time to attend the auction. Now that he had finally finished a mission and returned just in time for the auction to be held on Sunday, he was determined to win the legendary cultivation technique and spiritual weapon that would be the grand finale!

As for the Zhao family's affairs...

snort!

They were only beating up that good-for-nothing Zhao Kunpeng; even if they killed him, it wouldn't affect him at all.

However, Zhao Ziyu was right about one thing.

The fact that the other party broke into his home and injured Zhao Kunpeng was clearly a slap in the face to him. This matter absolutely cannot be left unresolved, otherwise the other party will think that he, Xiao Jialong, is easy to bully!

...

at the same time.

The auction is still proceeding smoothly.

Most of the ten lots have been successfully auctioned off, leaving only the last two lots remaining.

"Distinguished guests, the most exciting moment of this auction has finally arrived!"

Yang Meier stood on the exhibition platform, a reserved smile on her face, but spoke loudly to everyone in an extremely exaggerated tone.

Seeing her like this, Lu Yuan, sitting in the private room upstairs, couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle.

That girl!

I only mentioned my hosting style at the Treasure City auction to her, suggesting she learn from others and help to liven up the atmosphere. I didn't expect her to make such an exaggerated statement!

Given Yang Meier's captivating charm and appearance, which are comparable to those of Daji, her actions and manner of speaking seem strangely comical.

Fortunately, Yang Meier's strength level is increasing day by day, and the effect of her charm talent is becoming more and more powerful.

Although Yang Meier looks like a crosstalk performer on stage, she uses her alluring talent to create a unique kind of attraction.

Almost instantly!

Yang Meier immediately drew everyone's attention, their eyes fixed on the stage.

"Please welcome our ninth item tonight!"

A maidservant respectfully carried a wooden box and slowly walked up to the display stand, handing it to Yang Meier.

Yang Meier carefully took it and then opened the lid of the wooden box.

In an instant.

A strong wind swept through the entire auction hall, making the curtains around it flap loudly!

The crowd squinted as a sudden gust of wind blew, barely managing to open their eyes a crack to look at the stage.

And at this time.

Yang Meier smiled and slowly put the wooden box lid back on.

The moment she closed the lid, the raging winds that had been swirling around her suddenly vanished.

Seeing the excited yet somewhat uncertain expressions on everyone's faces, Yang Meier smiled.

"This is the ninth item, a fourth-tier high-grade cultivation technique—Wind Mountain Technique!"

These words immediately caused an uproar in the room.

"What?! That sudden gust of wind was actually caused by this cultivation technique?!"

"A high-grade fourth-tier cultivation technique?! My God!"

"This auction was definitely worth it!"

Everyone started discussing excitedly, their eyes lingering on the martial arts manual in Yang Meier's hand like hungry wolves eyeing a piece of meat.

Xiao Jialong's eyes also lit up as he looked at the exhibition stand.

His innate talent for beast taming is wind-attribute, making this Wind Mountain Manual a perfect match for him!

If he can successfully bid, his strength will rise to another level, and his status and weight in the Divine Martial Pavilion will become even more important!

Thinking of this, Xiao Jialong became even more excited.

He was determined to get his hands on the Wind and Mountain Manual!

at the same time.

Yang Meier stood on the stage and announced loudly.

"The Wind and Mountain Technique, a fourth-tier superior cultivation technique, has a starting bid of 500 million Blue Star Coins, with each bid increment not less than 10 million..."

As soon as Yang Meier finished speaking, the numbers on the screen behind her began to scroll.

It was moving so fast that it was impossible to see with the naked eye.

The staff member in charge of quoting stood there, somewhat at a loss, and inexplicably felt like an idiot.

The numbers on the screen continued to change wildly, showing no sign of slowing down.

Xiao Jialong was attending an auction for the first time and had never seen such a scene before, so he immediately became a little anxious!

After thinking for a moment, he tapped the instrument next to him twice.

The moment he clicked send, the screen on the booth froze!

"Guest number 57 has bid one billion!"

A crisp sound echoed throughout the venue, and everyone who was frantically pressing the buttons stopped.

However.

The pause lasted only a few seconds.

Except for a small number of people who lacked funds, the others quickly adjusted the prices on the instruments and began bidding again.

"Guest number 39 has bid 1.05 billion!"

"Guest number 26 has bid a full 1.1 billion!"

"Guest number 30 has bid 1.2 billion!"

"..."

Bidding was incessant, and Xiao Jialong's initial offer of 1 billion was immediately pushed down by new prices.

As he listened to the continuous calls from the quoting staff, Xiao Jialong's face grew increasingly gloomy. Without thinking, he entered a new price again.

"Guest number 57 has offered 1.5 billion! That's the highest bid so far!"

"hiss!"

Hearing a gasp from those around him, Xiao Jialong smirked smugly.

Surely no one can beat him at this price, right?

However, he underestimated the value of a fourth-tier superior cultivation technique, and even more so, he underestimated the divine beast auction house.

The price information on the screen only paused for a short while before new prices appeared again.

"Guest number 7 has offered 1.6 billion!"
