Chapter 27 — Auction (2)

"The auction is finally starting!"

"This woman is so beautiful..."

"She's the one in charge of the auction. Naturally, the Ling clan is letting her be the host to let idiots bid more."

The people around talked as this woman arrived in the center of the stage.

"Sorry for the long wait, everyone. The auction is starting, and I presumed that everyone here already knows the rules so let's cut the chase."

After Miss Li said that, everyone nodded in understanding.

"We already know, Miss Li."

Miss Li nodded and looked behind the stage, giving signals.

Armored soldiers walked out from the curtain and surrounded the stage, looking out for potential troublemakers.

Then a young man pushed a cart with a black chest atop it. When it was opened, it revealed a three-meter-wide crimson-colored stone, emitting a strong fire and metal elements.

"That's Fire Element Ore,"

The female attendant next to Jun explained when she saw his interested look, "It contains a thick fire element and faint metal element. It is very suitable for making a piece of fire-type equipment."

"Aside from that, it is also very useful for fire-type martial veterans, and the speed of refinement will at least increase by twofold."

Jun nodded his head, but he lost interest. His [Ancient Desolate Scripture] could let him refine his elements simultaneously so there was no need for him to buy it. However, he turned his head to Wang Tian and asked, "Brother Wang, I'll buy it for you."

"This..."

But Jun waved his hand and ignored him. Wang Tian sighed, feeling grateful in his heart.

The appearance of the Fire Element Ore sent waves to the fire-element martial artist present.

"The Ling Clan is going all out! A Fire Element Ore is actually being auctioned first."

"I'm stuck at the peak of the first refinement, and it just happens I need this Fire Element Ore. If I manage to get this Fire Element Ore, I will definitely break through to the second refinement!"

"Fire Element Ore! The missing material I've been searching to craft my armor appeared! Heaven is on my side!"

"Everyone, shall we begin?"

Miss Li spoke at this moment and the venue tone down. She nodded and picked up the hammer on the table and said, "Fire Elemental Ore. The starting price is twenty spirit stones. Every increment shall not be lower than 5."

Before everyone could start bidding, Jun immediately said, "I am Young Master Shan of the Shan Clan, and I am a Supreme Martial Veteran. Coincidentally, this Young Master is in dire need of this Fire Element Ore! Twenty Spirit Stones! Whoever stealing it from me is provoking our Shan Clan!"

His loud voice silenced the commotion.

Originally, some of the fire-type martial veterans were in high spirits and wanted to bid for this piece of Fire Element Ore. But when they heard the words Supreme Martial Veteran and Young Master, everyone was instantly afraid. All of them looked at Jun who was arrogantly posturing in his VIP room, letting everyone see him.

"Damn, a supreme prodigy actually fancied this ore!"

"Looks like heaven's not on my side. Provoking this young man is only asking for death!"

"Forget it, forget it. It's just a fire elemental ore. Although it's rare, I can seek it somewhere. It's not worth risking my life."

The group of people that intended to bid shook their heads and no longer speak. As for those who are in the VIP rooms, they didn't need the Ore that much. After all, they were all here for the last few items on the auction.

"Twenty Spirit Stones. Is anyone want to bid?"

Miss Li was in low spirit seeing that no one was going to bid for the ore. Fire Elemental Ore can be sold normally at the price of fifty spirit stones. For it to be sold as half of the price was just a big loss towards the Ling Clan.

"Going once. Going twice. Going thrice...Congratulations to the VIP room 20 for winning the Fire Element Ore!"

Miss Li helplessly sighed inwardly as she called out weakly.

"Good! Good!"

Jun laughed pleasantly and everyone in the venue rolled their eyes. They were naturally not blind and noticed the helplessness of the host of the auction. However, the Ling Clan can only blame themselves. Who told them to attract the attention of a Young Master who was in the Supreme Martial Veteran?

"The auction is temporarily taking a short minute break."

Miss Li suddenly said and hurriedly went backstage. Soon, she disappeared from the stage.

"What's going on? This is my tenth time going in the Ling Clan Auction, and I've never encountered this situation!"

Someone exclaimed.

"What can you expect? A young man is threatening everyone with his background and preventing the weaker ones from bidding. The Ling Clan is naturally going to panic." A group of people was intelligent. They quickly understood what was going on.

"I never expected that someone was this bold to not put Ling Clan in the eyes. It seems that this Young Master Shan is from a clan with Martial Master."

A lot of people agreed with the words spoken. Which descendants of a powerful family aren't arrogant and have no self-restraint? None!

Shortly after, Miss Li returned to the stage gracefully. She bowed to everyone and said sweetly, "Everyone, sorry for the inconvenience. For the sake of fairness, our auction house decided to add another rule."

"From now on, when the bidding starts, everyone can only shout their bid and no other words shall be spoken. Those who are looking for trouble will be kicked out from the auction."

After saying that, everyone knew this will inevitably happen so they weren't surprised. They looked at Jun in the Vip room. This warning indirectly warned him.

Jun rubbed his chin. It seems that the Ling Clan is panicking, but this is not the end.

Jun smiled and looked at Wang Tian. The latter understood the signal and nodded his head.

Now that plan one is over, it was time for plan two.

"Alright, let us begin the auction of the second item."
