Even before night had fully fallen, the Seven Treasures Auction House in Soto City was already brightly lit.
Brand new colorful flags fluttered in the wind, each bearing the emblem of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda, representing wealth and glory, giving the entire auction house a fresh new look and exuding a flamboyant style completely different from the past.
Ang Lee stood at the entrance of the auction house, a standard welcoming smile on his face.
His steward's uniform seemed to be ironed exceptionally well, and he exuded a long-lost vitality.
"Please come in, sir."
"Welcome to Qibao Auction House."
"Today's auction will definitely be worth your time."
He greeted each guest who stepped through the door with great enthusiasm.
Just then, two figures approached side by side, their imposing presence drawing the attention of the surrounding Soul Masters.
Leading the way was a burly, imposing man, none other than Wu Chen, the owner of the Soto City Great Soul Arena.
The man beside him appeared more refined, wearing the official robes of the city lord's mansion; he was Liu Shaobing, the city lord of Soto City.
When Ang Lee saw the two men, his smile widened even more.
These are two powerful figures in Soto City.
Their presence itself is the biggest advertisement.
Ang Lee stepped forward quickly and bowed in greeting.
"Lord Liu and Master Wu, your presence truly brings honor to the Qibao Auction House."
He behaved very respectfully.
Wu Chen grinned, revealing a set of white teeth.
"Manager Li, Lord Liu and I have already given you face this time, haven't we?"
His voice had a touch of roughness.
Liu Shaobing stood to the side, his face calm and silent, but his eyes held a scrutinizing gaze.
"Manager Li, is this another case of all show and no substance?"
Upon hearing this, Ang Lee quickly waved his hand and said...
"Not at all, it's our honor that you two could come."
"However, if you two don't have confidence in me, you should at least have confidence in the Ning family members of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School."
He cleverly brought up the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School.
"The auction owner has spent a fortune to organize this auction!"
Ang Lee specifically emphasized the words "high price".
Wu Chen spoke again.
"Manager Li, can you give me a heads-up?"
What exactly is being auctioned?
He seemed very curious.
Ang Lee chuckled.
He knew that revealing the details appropriately would better whet people's appetite.
"I can reveal it, but you two must not spread it."
He lowered his voice, feigning mystery.
Wu Chen and Liu Shaobing both became interested.
Tell me about it.
Wu Chen urged.
Ang Lee looked around to make sure no one unrelated was getting close.
"The items in this auction will definitely satisfy both of you."
"There's a thousand-year-old soul beast, alive!"
Wu Chen's eyes lit up.
His first revelation was explosive.
A living, thousand-year-old soul beast is a rare sight.
"And a spatial soul tool, a big one!"
Ang Lee continues to increase his investment.
Liu Shaobing's expression also changed slightly.
Spatial soul tools are rare to begin with, and those with large storage space are even more precious!
"And then, there are exotic beauties, 36D!"
Ang Lee dropped a third bombshell.
Wu Chen couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"You guys really put a lot of thought into this."
"But what is the final item in this auction?"
He asked the most crucial question.
Ang Lee's smile grew even brighter, tinged with pride.
"The grand finale, that's something our new owner specially prepared!"
"but……"
He then changed the subject.
"I don't know exactly what it is yet!"
Ang Lee shrugged, looking somewhat helpless yet expectant.
Wu Chen and Liu Shaobing exchanged a glance.
The grand finale that even the supervisor didn't know about?
This really whetted our appetites.
"Fine, you've got guts."
Wu Chen patted Li An on the shoulder.
"Let's go in and take a look."
Liu Shaobing nodded as well.
Ang Lee immediately turned around and said:
"Please, both of you!"
"The VIP seats are ready, please come in!"
He winked at the young female servant beside him.
The young female attendant immediately stepped forward and bowed to Wu Chen and Liu Shaobing.
"Distinguished guests, please follow me."
Wu Chen and Liu Shaobing followed the young female attendant as they entered the auction house.
The auction hall was already crowded with people, and the atmosphere was much livelier than usual.
Ang Lee watched the two important guests enter and breathed a sigh of relief.
The first wave of promotion seems to have worked well.
Just as he was about to continue greeting other guests, a subordinate rushed over.
"Manager Li, the owner wants to see you!"
The subordinate said, panting.
Ang Lee was overjoyed.
The auction owner called him over; was he preparing to hand over the final auction item to him?
Immediately, his heart was filled with anticipation.
"good!"
"Xiao Wang, please greet the guests here for me."
Li An gave an instruction to Xiao Wang, his subordinate who had been following him, and then quickly walked towards the backyard.
Meanwhile, in Soto, a group of six people walked into the city gate on the official road at the entrance.
The leader was a tall, thin middle-aged man dressed in a simple robe, yet his unique charisma was undeniable.
It was Flander, the dean of Shrek Academy.
Behind him were five young men and women: Tang San, Xiao Wu, Dai Mubai, Zhu Zhuqing, and Ma Hongjun.
