Auction

The day of the auction has arrived. During these three days, Mu Yue and Xiao Yan were just looking around the city having fun. The atmosphere in the city hasn't changed despite the rank 1 alert.

"Mu Yue, to celebrate being friends, ill buy you something that's in the auction."

"Won't that cost a lot? Items that are auctioned mostly are rare and expensive."

Xiao Yan just smiled and said, " Don't worry about it, it will be a gift from me to you so it should be special."

While walking towards the Treasure Pavilion, they heard people talking about the items that will be auctioned.

"Have you heard? There is going to be Marrow Cleansing Pills in the auction."

"Well, there are a lot more items than last month that will be auctioned. I heard the last item would be a tier 7 sword!"

"The rich families should be collecting gold coins to use now. Only those rich families will be able to bid for it."

Mu Yue heard all of them talking about the tier 7 sword and can't help but be nervous. If they knew that she possess Yin Xue, all of the families here might hunt her down.

When they arrived inside the auction house, Xiao Yan brought a badge and showed it to a servant. The servant quickly called the manager and informed him about it. When the manager saw the card, he quickly became polite to Xiao Yan and brought them to one of the VIP rooms.

"Thank you for coming esteemed guest. I'm sorry but the first three VIP rooms are already occupied. Are you fine occupying the 4th one?" The manager can't help but be nervous. He cannot offend this young lady but he cannot also kick away the occupants of the first 3 rooms.

"It is fine for me, a VIP room is still a VIP room. The numbers don't matter to me. Do not tell anyone that I'm occupying this room." Xiao Yan then went inside followed by Mu Yue.

When Mu Yue sat, she can't help but be surprised about the expensive layout of the room. She then said, "Now I'm wondering what your background is, Xiao Yan. I didn't know my friend is a rich young lady."

"Hehe, my background is a secret. Now you know I have the capability to buy you a gift."Xiao Yan said with a smile.

"Ladies and gentlemen, the auction will now start. For the first item, we have a 10 000-year-old ginseng. It can be added as an ingredient for a pill. It boosts the cultivation of the person who consumed it. The starting price will be 100 gold with a minimum of 10 gold increments." The auctioneer announced.

"110 gold"

"150 gold"

"400 gold"

The price quickly reached the 1000 gold mark and stopped at 1110 gold. An alchemist won the ownership of the item. The auction continued until an item piqued Mu Yue's interest.

"For the fourth item, we have the Frozen Yin Spiritual Gem. A must-have item for those ice spirit root and yin body. The starting price will be 1500 gold with 100 gold increments."

"2 000 gold" A female voice sounded inside the 4th VIP room. Xiao Yao was surprised when she heard Mu Yue's voice.

Mu Yue has been observing how others conduct their bid. When the price increment was high, most of the people stop bidding.

"2100-" A man was going to bid when suddenly Mu Yue uttered another bid.

"3 000 gold"

The people at the other VIP rooms smirked. Spending that amount of gold for the item will make the other party have lesser gold to bid for the last items.

"3000 gold, going once, going twice, sold!"

Xiao Yan then faced Mu Yue and said," I didn't expect you to also be a rich young lady, Mu Yue."

"The money was given to me by my master. I'm just an orphan." Mu Yue said. She feels comfortable saying the truth to Xiao Yan.

A servant then entered their room and brought the item. Mu Yue then gave the money and received the item.

"You should use it after we go back to our room. You should boost your cultivation before we do the special test of the school." Xiao Yan suggested.

Mu Yue put the fruit to her storage ring. The auctioneer then started the bid for the fifth item.
