Chapter 118 The Auction Ends
More and more people gathered outside, and the area near the auction hall was so crowded that no one could get through.
"It's about time." Ye Shi rubbed his hands impatiently.
Ye Shi has participated in many auctions, but this is the first time he has held an auction himself. Seeing that the magic weapon repaired by Muchen attracted so many people, Ye Shi couldn't help but feel proud.
Fu Yuanbao nodded and said eagerly, "Yes, I'll get ready and go on stage soon."
Ye Shi looked at Fu Yuanbao and said hesitantly, "Do you think I should pay for a beautiful woman to host the event?"
Fu Yuanbao frowned. He had suggested inviting a beautiful female host, but Ye Shi rejected it without mercy.
Fu Yuanbao frowned and said, "Aren't you reluctant to part with the Yuanshi?" Ye Shi, the stingy man, actually came to his senses sometimes.
"But you said that you can't catch the pervert if you don't want to sacrifice the Yuanshi." Ye Shi scratched his head in distress.
Fu Yuanbao sighed lightly and said, "It's too late for you to figure it out now. The auction is about to begin. Fortunately, don't worry, my charm is no less than that of a beautiful woman." Fu Yuanbao patted his chest confidently.
Fu Yuanbao thought to himself: Making money is not easy! When he met a stingy customer like Ye Shi, he had no choice but to work harder.
"Is your charm no less than that of a beautiful woman?" Ye Shi looked at Fu Yuanbao with suspicion.
Fu Yuanbao looked at Ye Shi's critical expression and his face stiffened. Did Ye Shi really have to look down on others like this? Many beautiful women liked his round and smooth figure. Although no one had confessed their love to him so far, that must be because those beautiful women were too shy.
"Student Ye, I'll go on stage first."
Ye Shi nodded and said, "Okay."
…………
Fu Yuanbao strode onto the stage and looked down at the people below.
As soon as Fu Yuanbao came on stage, everyone's attention was focused on him. Feeling everyone's gaze, Fu Yuanbao's vanity rose rapidly.
"Dear instructors and students, good evening! Thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedules to attend this auction. Now, I declare the auction officially open."
"The first item of this auction is the Cloud and Water Woven Clothes."
As soon as Fu Yuanbao finished speaking, a dazzling and beautiful robe appeared on the stage.
"Look everyone, what a beautiful vestment! Seniors and juniors, put on this vestment and your charm will increase by at least 30%."
As soon as Yunshui Zhiyi appeared, the looks of many female cultivators below became ferocious.
Fu Yuanbao raised his hand and launched an attack onto the robe. The robe suddenly lit up with a golden light, revealing a beautiful pattern. "Did you see that? Yes, you read that correctly. This robe can absorb attacks."
The gazes of the female cultivators below became even more intense. Beautiful clothes were fatally attractive to female cultivators. Clothes that were both beautiful and protective were enough to make the usually fussy female cultivators ignore everything.
"Finally, I have good news for you all. Whoever buys this Yunshui woven garment will be given a third-level Fire Talisman free of charge. Yes, you heard it right, a new type of Fire Talisman. If you are lucky, you can refine the Sun's Essence Fire from it." Fu Yuanbao said passionately, raising his fist.
"The auction begins now. Yunshui woven garment. Starting price: one million."
"One million and a half."
"Two million."
"Two million three hundred thousand."
…………
"Four million." Tang Zhuer shouted.
Many times, instead of waiting for everyone to slowly raise the price, it is more cost-effective to directly quote a high price and scare everyone.
It’s a pity that there are many talented people in Holy Star Academy. Tang Zhuer’s offer scared most people, but there are always some who are not scared.
"Four and a half million." another student shouted.
"Four million eight hundred thousand."
…………
Xia Qingyan looked at the crazy people in the field and gritted her teeth, "Are these guys all crazy?"
Xia Qingli sighed helplessly. There were too many wealthy people in Holy Star College, but she, as the dean, was short of money. Sometimes it really hurt to think about it!
In the end, the Yunshui Weaving Clothes was bought by a male student for 6.5 million yuan.
The female students looked at Jiang Cheng viciously. If their eyes could become reality, Jiang Cheng would have been cut into pieces long ago.
Xia Qingyan raised her eyebrows and said unwillingly, "I didn't expect that the person who took this photo was not a beauty, but a pretty boy."
Jiang Cheng's family runs an auction house, and it is no exaggeration to say that they make a fortune every day.
As the prince of the Jiang family, Jiang Cheng is naturally of high status.
"I heard that guy has been pursuing the Ninth Princess recently. I guess he bought this dress to give it to the Ninth Princess." Xia Qingli said.
The first item was sold for 6.5 million, which was a good start.
The second top-grade item was quickly pushed out, it was a giant axe.
The female students were not interested in this thing, but some strong male students saw the giant axe and started shouting with excitement as if they had seen their beloved lovers.
The bidding for the giant axe was not as fierce as that for the Yunshui Weaving Clothes, and it was sold for 2.8 million.
In fact, in terms of its own value, the giant axe is not much worse than the Yunshui Zhiyi, but the Yunshui Zhiyi is beautiful, and girls like beautiful things.
The auction proceeded smoothly, and in the end all the items were sold for 43.28 million.
The crowd slowly dispersed long after the auction ended.
Zhuang Yu couldn't let go of the jade fan in her hand. She looked at Murong Yan and asked, "Seventh Prince, are you really giving this to me?"
Murong Yan smiled and said, "Of course."
"Thank you so much." Zhuang Yu looked at Murong Yan sincerely.
"A sword is given to a hero, and this folding fan is just right for you, Zhuang Yu." Murong Yan said with a smile.
When Zhuang Yu heard Murong Yan's words, he lowered his head and smiled shyly. This folding fan cost Murong Yan 4.8 million yuan in stones. Zhuang Yu couldn't help but feel a little more favorable towards Murong Yan.
Lan Ruofeng watched Zhuang Yu and Murong Yan interacting with a very stiff expression on his face.

"There are so many rich people!" Lou Ruoyi couldn't help but sigh as she walked on the street.
Everything that happened at the auction just now made Lou Ruoyi feel like she was in a dream.
"Yeah!" Michelle couldn't help but blink. Although she had known for a long time that there were many rich people in the college, many of them were low-key and kept a low profile. It was not obvious how wealthy they were. However, in today's occasion, all of their wealth was exposed.
Ye Rong followed behind a few people, and her blood boiled when she thought of the scene of those noble children bidding.
What a heroic spirit that is! She really doesn't treat Yuanshi as Yuanshi flower. How great it would be if she could become one of these people!
"The person who spent 6.5 million to buy Yunshui Zhiyi is a man. He wouldn't have any transvestite fetish, right?" Bai Le said sourly.
Lou Ruoyi chuckled, "That's the young master of Jiyue Auction House. He's not a transvestite, but he seems to be pursuing the Eighth Princess. He must have bought it as a gift."
"Eighth Princess, you are so lucky!" Bai Le couldn't help but say.
"The jade bone fan that the seventh prince bought seemed to be given to Zhuang Yu." Michelle said.
Bai Le frowned and said, "Zhuang Yu, this guy, already has Lan Ruofeng, but he's still not satisfied. Now he's trying to confuse the Seventh Prince."
"He has more than just these two people. All the outstanding male freshmen in the academy seem to have a good impression of Zhuang Yu. He simply wants to catch them all in one fell swoop, leaving us no chance at all!" Lou Ruoyi gritted her teeth helplessly.
Bai Le curled his lips and said, "I heard that Zhuang Yu is interested in Mu Chen."
"Zhuang Yu, this guy, isn't he afraid of choking from eating too much? He already has so many people, but he still covets Muchen. To be honest, Zhuang Yu is always successful against that guy, but Muchen seems to look down on him." Lou Ruoyi said with a gloating look.
…………
Ye Shi looked at the Yuanshi card in his hand and breathed a sigh of relief. With the proceeds from today's auction, there were already more than 60 million in his Yuanshi card.
Fu Yuanbao received a reward of more than 300,000 yuan, which was considered a small fortune, and he seemed very happy.
"Classmate Ye, if something like this happens again next time, remember to come to me." Fu Yuanbao said to Ye Shi with a lick on his face.
Ye Shi nodded and replied calmly, "Okay."
Fu Yuanbao looked at Ye Shi's reaction and couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. Ye Shi didn't say anything cold to him this time, which made Fu Yuanbao a little flattered.
Because he had collected 60 million yuan stones, Ye Shi was in a really good mood, and he even looked at Fu Yuanbao with a more favorable attitude.
Although Ye Shi said that he was disdainful of his biological father's things, in fact, Ye Shi still attached great importance to those things in his heart.
There is no son who does not desire his father's love. Moreover, Ye Shi has been neglected by the man he thought was his "father" since he was a child, and he longs for fatherly love even more.

Ye Xun's residence.
Wang Li fiddled with the beautiful clothes in her hands and said happily, "Rong'er wrote to me. She said that Ye Shi held an auction and brought in over 40 million yuan in stones. 60 million yuan in stones should have been collected by now."
Ye Xun was stunned for a moment, full of jealousy, and said: "Holding an auction will earn more than 40 million."
He sold his family martial arts skills and only got a little over one million.
Ye Xun was actually very uneasy after having just sold his family martial arts skills. However, after spending a day in the brothel of the imperial capital, Ye Xun threw all his uneasiness out of the window.
Wang Li nodded and said, "Yes!"
After selling the ancestral secret book, Ye Xun had a lot more money.
With the Yuanshi, Ye Xun lived a very carefree life. Thinking that he would soon have 60 million Yuanshi in his account, Ye Xun spent the Yuanshi without any restraint.
"This little ungrateful guy is so lucky." Ye Xun couldn't help but say.
"How's the book?" Wang Li asked.
Ye Xun shook his head and said, "I asked two more people to look at it, but still no one understood it. It's a complete mess!"
Wang Li frowned and said, "Even though I say that, I can't even tear the book open."
Although she wanted the 60 million yuan stone extremely, Wang Li didn't want to give the book to Ye Shi at all. This thing was absolutely priceless. Although she couldn't figure out what was written in the book, Wang Li just had this intuition. Perhaps this was a woman's sixth sense.
Ye Xun frowned, he was a little hesitant. The book looked tattered, but he didn't know what material it was made of. Not only could it not be torn, it was also waterproof and fireproof. It was definitely not an ordinary thing. 60 million Yuanshi, but he gave it back as Yuanshi, which seemed a bit of a loss!
Many things seem useless when they are around us, but when we think about giving them away, we feel reluctant to part with them. This is the feeling Ye Xun is in at the moment.
