After the auction finally came to a close, Jiang An couldn't wait to take out the items he had successfully bid on one by one.
When these dazzling array of items were laid out on the floor, Jiang An couldn't help but frown, thinking to himself, "This auction house seems to be all show and no substance!"
It turns out that in the previous auction stages, common supplies such as water and food appeared in large quantities and frequently, with a variety of items available, and most of the time they could be easily acquired without going through too much bidding.
However, as the auction progressed, the situation took a dramatic turn.
As the auction neared its end, the competition for the items intensified, and prices soared.
Clearly, most of the items displayed in the first half were just ordinary, unremarkable objects; the truly rare and valuable treasures were reserved for the latter half, sparking a frenzied bidding war among the crowd.
The weapons and skill books, in particular, became the focus of everyone's attention.
Jiang An methodically and quickly stored the raw materials for the large amount of food he had acquired at the auction into his storage ring. These foods would come in handy every day when he carefully cooked them with the help of the cooking machine.
After processing the food, the other items placed in front of you are the most important.
The first thing that caught her eye was the two bottles of spiritual water that emitted faint fluctuations of spiritual energy. Jiang An thought that if she used it while soaking in the bathtub at night, it would surely bring unexpected and wonderful effects.
However, it should be noted that the two bottles of spiritual water she purchased were not just for her own use; a portion of them was also intended as a reward for the two adorable little ones.
After all, they had made great contributions to Jiang An's money-making plan, so now that he had such a rare and good thing, he should naturally reward them well.
Store the sacred water separately.
Then there are ice crystals, which are great for cooling down outdoors.
This time, the auction house directly listed 200 ice crystals, in sets of two.
Although there are many ice crystals, their function is urgently needed.
Its launch caused a small sensation, and Jiang An naturally didn't miss it, directly ordering 10 sets, 20 pieces of ice crystals.
Including what she already has, she has a total of 32 ordinary ice crystals. Of course, she only obtained ordinary ice crystals in the ice cave, and there is also one high-age ice crystal.
She treasured it separately.
Regular ice crystals are sufficient now.
The ice crystals won in the auction, along with the previous ice crystals, were placed in a wooden box.
Next up are skill upgrade books and weapon upgrade books.
[Ding! Please select a skill to upgrade!]
Without hesitation, Jiang An reached out and tore open the skill upgrade book in his hand.
In an instant, that familiar mechanical voice suddenly echoed in my ears.
Without even thinking, Jiang An blurted out, "Cloud Steps!"
She already knew which skill she needed to upgrade.
So far, two of her skills have been successfully advanced to the top level: top-level combat skills and top-level swordsmanship.
However, due to its unique nature, martial arts cannot be upgraded further, so only swordsmanship still has room for improvement.
In fact, what Jiang Anxin really wanted to upgrade was this sword technique, but unfortunately she had already used the skill upgrade book once before, and according to the rules, she could not use it a second time.
As for how to further improve his top-level swordsmanship, Jiang An is still clueless.
But she firmly believes that there are always more solutions than problems, and that one day she will find a way to break through.
Right now, what's more urgent for her is to improve her speed.
Since taking that batch of Speed Fruit last time, she could clearly feel that her speed had increased significantly.
What amazing changes would occur if the speed-related skill "Cloud Step" were further enhanced?
Just thinking about it made Jiang An incredibly excited, and he even dared not imagine how spectacular that wonderful scene would be.
Just then, the system's pleasant notification sound came again:
[Ding! Congratulations to player Jiang An! Your Cloud Step skill has been successfully upgraded to the highest level!]
When Jiang An heard these words, her eyes lit up instantly.
Because the Cloud Step is significantly different from other ordinary skills, it is not divided into beginner, intermediate, and advanced stages as is common.
Prior to this, when Jiang An mentioned this unique skill, he was only trying it out and did not have high expectations for it.
However, to her utter surprise, this attempt was a great success!
