"System notification: Congratulations on killing the White Crystal Flower Snake. You have gained 4500 experience points, an additional 900 experience points, 50 copper coins, and +2 merit points. You have also gained an additional +3 merit points."

"System notification: Your cultivation technique, Soul Devouring, has been successfully activated. You have gained 1 point of Spirit attribute."

"System notification: Congratulations, your level has increased to 27. You have gained 80 health points, 40 mana points, 5 free attribute points, and 2 soul power points."

"System notification: Your pet Cerberus has leveled up and gained 360 HP, 700 MP, 56 Attack, 24 Defense, 2 Fire Attribute Enhancement, 2 Water Attribute Enhancement, and 2 Metal Attribute Enhancement."

......

"I've leveled up again." Wang Ming had been grinding snake monsters here for a day and a night. At this moment, a golden light flashed on his body, and his level increased to level 27.

Cerberus's experience was already enough to level up, but since pet levels cannot exceed player levels, Wang Ming's level had just reached 27 when Cerberus's level also reached 27.

"Level 30 monsters give a lot of experience, and the chance of triggering Soul Devour is also much higher."

When Wang Ming was farming the Misty Fairy Forest dungeon, the chance of Soul Devouring activating was extremely high. At that time, Wang Ming guessed that the greater the level difference, the greater the chance of Soul Devouring activating, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.

"There are a lot of snake monsters here, and not many players, so there's no need to go to higher-level maps. However, at this time, we don't need to grind monsters for now."

Wang Ming opened the auction house system and looked at the Guild Creation Token he was bidding on. At this moment, the bidding price for the Guild Creation Token had reached a terrifying number.

"gold!"

"It's much higher than I expected, and there are still 15 minutes left in the auction. These remaining 15 minutes will be the real battleground."

As expected, just as Wang Ming had predicted, the auction interface changed from gold coins to gold coins as soon as he refreshed it.

"Hehe, this is more exciting than killing monsters." Wang Ming found a safe place and began to keep an eye on the auction house.

Wang Ming refreshed the auction house every minute, and after 10 minutes, the price of the guild creation token rose from gold coins to gold coins.

That wasn't all. Wang Ming clicked refresh, and the price of gold coins, which had been rising just moments before, increased again.

Wang Ming swallowed hard and started refreshing the auction house every second.

"gold."

"gold."

......

"gold."

"Gold coins, holy crap, gold coins! There are still 30 seconds left. How much will this first guild creation token sell for?"

20 seconds, gold coins.

15 seconds, gold coins.

10 seconds, gold coins.

5 seconds, gold coins.

1 second of gold coins.

Just one second before the auction house suddenly froze, and no matter how many times Wang Ming refreshed it, it was to no avail.

"Holy crap, is the auction house going to crash? This is ridiculous! How many people were bidding in the last second?"

Actually, it's not the auction house's fault that it collapsed. If it were just people participating in the bidding, it wouldn't have caused the auction house to collapse. But the price of this guild creation token was just too high. In addition to the people participating in the bidding, countless players in the Yuan Domain were all paying attention to this guild creation token.

Especially in the last few seconds, countless players refreshed their accounts at the same time, which caused the auction house to crash.

Wang Ming was eager to know how many gold coins his guild creation token had sold, but the auction house was currently blocked, leaving Wang Ming anxious but helpless.

"Damn, how much did it sell for? The last second was for gold coins, so this first guild creation token should at least reach the price of gold coins."

"Gold coins, at today's exchange rate of 1:1800, that's 180 million? Holy crap, a small goal?"

"System notification: The item you bid on - Guild Creation Token - has been successfully sold."

"This is... the auction house is ready?" Wang Ming's heart pounded. He excitedly opened the auction house and looked at his sales interface, where he saw the sales records of guild creation tokens.

Guild Creation Order: Price in Gold Coins.

"Holy crap, gold coins! They increased by so much in the last second!"

It seems that these wealthy guild leaders all know that the last second is the moment of life and death, but because they don't know what price others will offer, the gold coins have reached an astonishing level.

"Hehe, gold coins, this is more than a small goal." Wang Ming trembled inwardly as he collected the gold coins.

"System notification: The item you listed - Guild Creation Token - has been sold. After deducting the handling fee of 8,000 gold coins, you have received gold coins."

"Hiss, an 8,000 gold coin handling fee, this Yuan Domain is bleeding me dry."

Wang Ming felt a pang of heartache, but Yuanyu's 10% handling fee was unavoidable, so he could only complain.

"Well, I still have one guild creation token left. I should put it up for sale while everyone has the money, otherwise the price will drop once more guild creation tokens are released."

Wang Ming opened the auction house and put up a second guild creation token, but the starting price made it difficult for him to decide.

"How much should we set the starting bid? Gold is too low, maybe we can set it at something else?"

"Hmm, this price should be about right."

Wang Ming entered the gold coins and was about to list the item when the system notification sounded again.

"Announcement to the entire region: Player Cao Cao of the Three Kingdoms in Chixiao City has established the first guild in Yuanyu, [Heroes of the Three Kingdoms]. The reward for the guild [Heroes of the Three Kingdoms] is that it has reached level 2. Player Cao Cao will receive +3 levels, a level 30 5-star weapon, and merit points."
