Mythical Beast Auction House.

now.

All 2,500 seats were filled, including many prominent figures from Yunlei City!

If we include those who couldn't squeeze in from outside or even on the street, the number of people gathered at the auction house is probably in the tens of thousands!

Such a grand occasion.

This is the first time in a hundred years that such an event has occurred in Yunlei City!

The hall was filled with constant chatter, and most of the people kept glancing at the boy sitting in the front row.

"As expected, Boss Lu is still sitting in that seat."

"Mr. Lu looks to be only twenty years old, yet he's managed to run an auction house of such a scale. He's truly a prodigy at such a young age!"

"Boss Lu is so handsome! I declare that from now on he is my male god!"

"Get out of here! I was here first, why is he your idol?"

Everyone chimed in with their own opinions, the conversation revolving around Boss Lu of the Divine Beast Auction House. Some of the girls even started pulling each other's hair because of disagreements.

Of course, such people were quickly escorted out of the auction house by security personnel maintaining order at the scene.

"Boss, it's almost time. The auction can begin." Tang Qi walked up to Lu Yuan and said in a low voice.

Lu Yuan, who was sitting with his eyes closed, opened them upon hearing this.

"Then let's notify Mu Ying to begin."

"yes."

Tang Qi responded and was about to leave when Lu Yuan suddenly called him back.

"Have you seen Lu Ming and Wang Dingwei?"

Tang Qi nodded, "Don't worry, boss. Someone has been following them ever since they left Yunlei City. They're currently sitting in the third-to-last row on the far left of the auction house."

Lu Yuan nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this, "Have someone keep a close eye on them and prevent them from making any underhanded moves."

"yes!"

...

These past few days.

Lu Ming and his apprentice Wang Dingwei committed a great deal of crimes.

First, I suddenly felt unwell, with dizziness and nausea.

Then came the incessant coughing.

Their symptoms worsened day by day, and they even started coughing up blood!

Moreover, along with the cough, unbearable pains all over the body followed.

They hadn't had a good night's sleep for several days, and they were both extremely weak and dehydrated.

If they weren't afraid of death, they would have loved to end their lives right now!

Even so, they endured the excruciating pain and squeezed into the auction house.

They sat in the third-to-last row, in a corner by the aisle. Many people who couldn't get seats were standing in the aisle, blocking their view.

"Damn it! It's just a lousy auction, why are there so many people?!" Lu Ming was furious.

He arrived an hour before the auction started, hoping to take advantage of the quiet atmosphere and scout around the area to get some information.

The result was unexpected.

How can you say there are hardly any people here?

It seems everyone in Yunlei City is here!

Luckily he arrived early, otherwise he wouldn't have been able to get a seat in the third-to-last row!

“Master, everyone around is talking about Boss Lu from the auction house. I heard he’s sitting in the middle of the first row!” Wang Dingwei said.

"What good will knowing do? It's all blocked out in front of us, what can we possibly see? Just sit still!"

Mentioning this incident made Lu Ming furious.

"Then this auction..." Wang Ding asked hesitantly.

"Clap when you hear it!" Lu Ming snapped irritably.

The task assigned to him by the Grand Elder was not yet completed, so no matter how crowded or crowded it was, he could not leave.

He could only vent his anger on the owner of the mythical beast auction house.

After the auction ends, once we catch that boss surnamed Lu, we'll make sure he suffers!

Lu Ming was thinking angrily.

On the stage, Mu Ying had already taken small, quick steps and walked gracefully to the center.

As she appeared, the entire venue fell silent.

All eyes were on her.

Even though Mu Ying had hosted many auctions and seen many events of all sizes, she still couldn't help feeling nervous in front of so many eyes below the stage.

She took a few deep breaths before speaking loudly.

"Welcome to the Divine Beast Auction House. This is the third auction. Unlike previous auctions, we have prepared twenty special items to allow more people to bid on their desired items!"

These words were spoken.

The venue erupted in cheers.

Everyone stared wide-eyed at the stage, seemingly in disbelief.

"Did I hear that right? Are there twenty items going to be auctioned this time?"

"That's right! There are ten more items! Maybe you and I will also have a chance to participate in the auction!"

"Hahaha! Luckily, I sold all my possessions before coming here. This time, I'm determined to get a pet cub!"

Some people were kicking themselves, regretting that they hadn't brought more money.

Most people, on the other hand, were overjoyed, glad they had brought enough funds, and perhaps they could bid on a favorite item.

The happiest among them were the various powerful families and other forces that had traveled from afar to participate in the auction.

When it comes to financial resources, they've never been afraid!

"Then, the third auction of the Divine Beast Auction House will begin immediately!"

Amidst the eager gazes of the crowd, Mu Yinglang made the announcement, and several burly men carried a container onto the stage.

"The first item up for auction... a fifth-tier Earth Spirit cub with the bloodline of the divine beast Azure Dragon—the Azure Dragon!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the red cloth covering the container was lifted.

In an instant, a deep blue dragon snake came into view.

The next moment.

The whole place was in an uproar!

"A fifth-tier Earth Spirit cub!"

"Hiss! Why are the cubs at the start getting higher and higher level each time?"

"As expected of a divine beast auction house, they've started with a fifth-level Earth Spirit cub! Maybe we'll actually see a Heavenly Evolution level cub today!"

"That's right! If a Celestial Evolution-level cub hadn't appeared, things would have been very difficult to handle!"

Everyone was excitedly discussing it.

In an inconspicuous corner, Kong Luanshan looked at Cang Jiao on the stage, his eyes slightly narrowed.

...

"A fifth-tier Earth Spirit cub, the Azure Dragon, with the bloodline of the divine beast Azure Dragon flowing through its veins. Starting bid is 30 million, with each bid increment no less than 1 million!"

"I'll offer thirty million!"

Thirty-one million!

"I offer thirty-five million!"

"A fifth-tier Earth Spirit cub? How could it be acquired for a mere thirty million? I'll offer forty million!"

"..."

In the blink of an eye.

The auction hall was filled with the sounds of bidding.

The price of the Azure Dragon jumped from the starting bid of 30 million to over 40 million in an instant!

"Master, there are actually mythical beast cubs up for auction!" Wang Dingwei exclaimed excitedly.

Although he couldn't see the Azure Dragon's appearance on the stage, he could see the large screen projected above his head, on which the data clearly stated that it was inherited from the divine beast Azure Dragon.

"I never imagined the rumors were true!" Lu Ming was equally shocked.

What surprised him most was the name "Azure Dragon".

Having spent decades in the capital, he had never heard of a mythical beast named Azure Dragon.

However, the detector is connected to the Sky Eye system, so the data must be accurate.

It seems that the information he has been gathering these past few days is true.

The pet cubs auctioned in the mythical beast auction house all inherit from mythical beasts whose names have never been heard of, and may even be mythical beasts from the legendary ancient times!

Since that's the case.

He must take over this mythical beast auction house today!
