Sunday night.
The entrance to the mythical beast auction house was bustling with noise and a constant stream of guests.
This is the second auction held at the Mythical Beast Auction House after its renovation, and the scale of the previous auction was evident to all.
Not only were there the usual grand finale cultivation techniques and spiritual artifacts, but there were also two pet cubs with special and rare attributes!
The news caused a sensation throughout the entire capital of Yan.
That's a rare attribute that's rarely recorded even in ancient books!
Regardless of the specific strength, the lack of information alone is enough to give many beast tamers a headache.
After all, most battles of the same level are about information warfare; only by knowing yourself and your enemy can you win every battle.
If you don't even know your opponent's strengths and weaknesses, your chances of winning will naturally be greatly reduced.
then.
The scale of this auction was far more spectacular than any of the previous ones.
The entire street was packed with people who had come to watch the show, making it completely blocked.
Only guests with auction invitations are eligible to enter.
In this context, having an invitation instantly becomes a symbol of wealth and power.
No one expected it.
In such a short period of time, the Divine Beast Auction House has transformed from an unknown small auction house into the most popular and prestigious auction house in Yandu.
"Mr. Xu, it's been a long time!"
"Mr. Wu, it has indeed been a while since we last met. How have you been?"
As they walked towards the private room on the second floor, Xu Lanshan and Wu Qiushan bumped into each other and exchanged pleasantries with smiles.
Wu Mingxu and Xu Yunfan followed behind their respective fathers, exchanging greetings and nodding to each other.
Those who could get into the private rooms on the second floor of the Divine Beast Auction House were all "connected" individuals with ties to Lu Yuan. Xu Lanshan was surprised to run into Wu Qiushan here and couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
When did these two people get together?
As Xu Lanshan and Wu Qiushan, two old foxes, were testing each other, a voice suddenly came from behind them.
"I wonder if there will be any new types of drugs up for auction tonight. If there are, Wei, you'd better help me win the bid!"
"Old Gao, where's your secret stash? You actually need me to pay for it for you?"
"That's money I saved to buy medicine from young friend Lu, how could I use it so easily?! Just consider it a loan from you, I'll pay you back later!"
"Okay, okay!"
Wei Zheng and Gao Hong walked forward chatting and laughing. Xu Lanshan saw them and immediately exclaimed in surprise.
"Mr. Wei, Mr. Gao?!"
"Oh my, isn't this the Xu family's young master? You've actually come to the auction too?" Gao Hong said with a smile.
“Mr. Xu, it’s been quite a long time since we last met!” Wei Zheng said with a smile.
Wu Qiushan stood to the side, dumbfounded.
Wei Zheng, the head of Lingyaotang, and Gao Hong, the chief pharmacist of Lingyaotang?!
These two are both very prominent figures in Yandu, and they actually came to participate in the auction?
And it seems like they are acquaintances with Lu Yuan!
After regaining his senses, Wu Qiushan did not miss this good opportunity to befriend Wei Zheng and Gao Hong, and quickly went up to greet them.
The four of them chatted casually on the second floor until a maid who was leading the way reminded them to disperse and return to their respective private rooms.
Even after sitting on the sofa in the private room with Wu Mingxu, Wu Qiushan still felt a little unreal.
"dad?"
"Xu'er." Wu Qiushan turned to look at Wu Mingxu, "You must work hard while you're by Mr. Lu's side, and don't let him down!"
Wu Mingxu nodded solemnly upon hearing this.
"Of course!"
Seeing Wu Mingxu's serious expression, Wu Qiushan breathed a sigh of relief and felt very fortunate that Wu Mingxu had accepted Lu Yuan's invitation to join the Divine Pavilion.
With his close relationships with so many powerful figures, Lu Yuan's status in Yandu has become extraordinary.
As long as Wu Mingxu remains under Lu Yuan's protection, even if his time-based talent is exposed, his life will not be in danger.
People arriving for the auction entered the venue one after another.
The auction officially began shortly afterward.
Wearing a floor-length red dress, Yang Meier slowly walked to the center of the exhibition stage and smiled brightly at the audience.
"Welcome, distinguished guests, to tonight's auction. I am your auctioneer, Yang Meier."
"Tonight, the Divine Beast Auction House has prepared ten items for auction. The list of items was distributed to everyone before the auction started, so you should already have some understanding of the items."
"Now, without further ado, let's move on to the first item of this auction!"
As Yang Meier finished speaking, a pet container half the height of a person was lifted onto the display stand.
Lu Yuan sat in the main private room on the second floor.
After hearing Yang Meier's introduction, the crowd began to bid eagerly, and the price gradually increased.
The Zhu siblings sat next to him, watching the crowd scramble for the food.
"Tsk tsk! No matter how many times I've seen it, I still can't help but be amazed every time I see these people fighting over things at an auction."
Everyone present was a prominent figure in Yandu.
They were either powerful and influential people or wealthy and famous businessmen.
But when faced with the items offered at the mythical beast auction, they become like middle-aged women snapping up discounted vegetables at a supermarket, wishing they could trample on their opponents' heads to raise the price.
Lu Yuan chuckled upon hearing this.
After visiting the capital and hearing about the mythical beasts in this world from Luo Jing, he finally understood how rare and precious it was to have a pet cub with the bloodline of a mythical beast.
After all, there are only eight mythical beasts in the world at present.
So even though everyone had already contracted with beast tamers, it didn't stop them from participating in the auction.
The auction proceeded smoothly.
As with previous auctions, the first half of the auction featured only pet cubs, but due to the higher quality of the participating customers, the price of each pet cub was relatively higher.
As Lu Yuan listened to Yang Meier announce the successful bids, he seemed to already see a large sum of money flowing into his account, and couldn't help but smile and narrow his eyes.
Meanwhile.
In the lobby of the first-floor conference hall, Zhao Hun sat in the front corner with a cold expression.
"Sis, are you sure that kid who injured Kunpeng will show up at this auction?"
