Breaking Through In Public

"One hundred thousand spirit stones going once!"

"One hundred thousand spirit stones going twice!"

"One hundred thousand spirit stones going thrice!"

The auctioneer babbled, and the hammer fell quickly, afraid Lin Luo would change his mind.

The people present didn't care about the auctioneer's inappropriate behavior.

Because...

In their eyes, only a fool would spend 100000 spirit stones to buy this villa!

Lin Luo raised his sign too quickly, and the auctioneer's hammer fell too quickly.

By the time Zhang Chugui and Zhang Shengsheng reacted, the deal had already been settled.

"Lin Luo! Why did you take a photo of this villa?"

Lin Luo, who had just put down his cards, was puzzled. "This villa is to my liking, which is why I won it."

Lin Luo could tell that the villa's decorations and furnishings were all extremely expensive.

After all, the screen had already shown the value of these items.

The furniture and the flowers alone would cost a hundred thousand spirit stones.

Moreover, this villa was so beautiful that Lin Luo's heart was moved.

Zhang Sheng was in a daze. but no one wants this villa at all.

Lin Luo also noticed that. His lips moved. "There shouldn't be any problems with this villa, right?"

"There is."

Lin Luo immediately became nervous. He had just bought the house, and if there were any problems, he would suffer a huge loss.

"The spiritual force in this villa is the weakest in the entire core area."

Lin Luo, who had just raised his heart, suddenly calmed down.

"Oh, oh." He responded indifferently.

The density of the spiritual energy did not affect him much.

Zhang Shengsheng and Zhang Chugui couldn't understand Lin Luo's thoughts.

There were many luxury goods inside, but the problem was, who would still care about those?

The villa's previous owner, Mr. Kang, was a bit stupid and spent a huge amount of spirit stones on these useless things.

During the era of the great calamity, the outside world was filled with strange beasts and mutated creatures. Humans built cities in the cracks and barely managed to survive.

However, no one knew how long the city could last.

Surviving this era of catastrophe had become everyone's primary goal.

None of these luxury items could help with cultivation or increase one's strength. Even the big families would not care about them.

Mr. Kang and Lin Luo could be said to be two of the weirdos.

After a moment of daze, Zhang Shengsheng suddenly remembered something.

Where did Lin Luo get the spiritual stones?

100,000 spirit stones was not a significant sum to him and Zhang Chugui, but to Lin Luo, it was definitely a huge loss.

Furthermore, they had never seen Lin Luo go out of the city to hunt for beasts. So, where did he get the money?

Zhang Chugui wanted to ask Lin Luo, but he felt that it wasn't a good idea. It was very uncomfortable to hold it in.

After buying the villa, Lin Luo didn't watch the rest of the auction.

On the other hand, Zhang Shengsheng and Zhang Chugui won a lot of equipment and pills.

After the auction ended, they went together to pick up the items and pay.

Just as they got the key, Lin Luo and the others met another group of people.

The faces of the Zhang family members instantly darkened.

Lin Luo didn't know what was going on. He was still fiddling with the keys to the villa he had just obtained.

"Yo, isn't this the Zhang family?"

The leader of the group also had a foul mouth.

Crossing his arms, he looked up. "Oh, the Zhang family really made a name for themselves in today's auction."

"First, the guest elder and the direct line's second young master had a big fight. Then, guest elder Lin even bid for a..."

The other party paused for a moment and pretended to frown in distress. "Oh! It's just a useless villa."

The villa had poor spiritual energy, and no one was willing to spend spirit stones to buy it.

"Su Long, this has nothing to do with your Su family," Zhang Chugui said coldly.

Su Long?

The Su family?

Lin Luo raised the corner of his eyes. The Zhang family and the Su family were mortal enemies. No wonder Zhang Chugui and the others had black faces when they saw each other.

"Hahaha, it's fine. That's why we're just here to watch the show. There should be quite a lot of people here to watch the show."

Not only did Su Long not restrain himself, but he also became more and more presumptuous.

He didn't like the Zhang family, and he didn't like Lin Luo either.

Since he discovered that Lin Luo had a crippled body, Su Long hated him to the core.

His aptitude was very low, and he was only a high-level apprentice warrior.

Then, he was stuck at the threshold of becoming a martial artist for two whole years!

How could Lin Luo, a cripple with inferior roots, surpass his twenty years of cultivation in just ten days?

He was clearly a good-for-nothing!

"However, as a senior, I still have to advise you."

Su Long was older than Lin Luo, so he said as a senior, "In this era, cultivation is still more important. To put your mind on this kind of flashy but useless thing... Tsk."

Su Long clicked his tongue and shook his head, his words full of disdain.

"For a house with such poor spiritual energy, let alone 100000 spiritual stones, even ten spiritual stones would be too much.

"Although you've advanced quite quickly, you can't be too arrogant. You need to have a sense of urgency!

Lin Luo wanted to retort, but the system in his mind suddenly made a move.

[The host's spiritual energy has reached the threshold and has been successfully promoted to a Martial Master.]

Lin Luo vaguely heard a slashing sound.

It was coming from his body, like a thin film being pierced.

Immediately after, Lin Luo could clearly feel the changes in his body. His self became even clearer, and the meridians in his body had more than doubled in size.

It was as if immortal Qi had cleansed his entire body.

Everyone present looked at Lin Luo in shock.

Lin Luo had a breakthrough?

Was it right in front of them?

At the auction?

From a martial apprentice to a martial warrior, and then from a martial warrior to a Martial Master, there would be a bottleneck in each realm.

People with high aptitudes would be stuck at the bottleneck for less time, while those with poor aptitudes might be stuck for years or even decades.

However, every martial artist, without exception, would need to go into seclusion for a few days or more than ten days to concentrate on breaking through the bottleneck before they could successfully break through.

However, Lin Luo had just casually participated in an auction, and then he had broken through?

"Argh."

Lin Luo hooked the key and sneakily said, "I'm really sorry, because breaking through is really too easy, so it's hard to feel any sense of urgency."

F*ck!

If it weren't for the fact that they had to care about their face, the Zhang and su families would have even cursed.

Easy to break through?

Every time they broke through, they had to tighten their skin and flesh and be stuck at the bottleneck for a period of time. Then, when the breakthrough came, they had to be extremely careful, afraid that the breakthrough would fail and their future would be destroyed.

Lin Luo's back was facing the Zhang family, so he couldn't see their faces. He could only see the Su family's ugly and fearful expressions.

"Right, you said senior just now? I wonder what kind of senior you are talking about? A martial apprentice senior who is older than me?"

...

Su Long was so angry that he ran away.

The Zhang family members were in a daze as they watched Lin Luo leave as if they had seen a ghost.

The news of Lin Luo's breakthrough in public spread throughout the city at the speed of light.
