At 8 pm, the main hall was brightly lit.

Music started playing at the venue, and the auction officially started.

Over a hundred people were participating in the auction, and they sat on the leather sofas below, lowering their heads to talk from time to time.

Liu Wanqing was dressed in a cream-colored gown. She walked out quickly, and the attractiveness of her curvaceous figure was accentuated by the design of the gown. As soon as she appeared, she attracted everyone’s attention. Her beautiful eyes swept across the audience. The men’s hearts started to beat faster, and the women felt jealous of her. The atmosphere immediately became more lively.

“I didn’t expect her to be the host of the auction,” Chen Yiming blurted out.

“What’s wrong? Do you know each other?” Wei Chaoyuan asked in surprise.

“I don’t really know her. I just met her briefly,” Chen Yiming brushed it off.

“I didn’t expect Liu Wanqing to be the one presiding over this auction. She is the precious daughter of the chairman of the Changshi Group, and is loved by everyone,” Shi Changyi said in surprise.

“Is that strange? Not all the rich second-generation are content with just wasting their lives and money away,” Chen Yiming said doubtfully.

“The chairman of the Changshi group, Liu Liyuan, is a warrior candidate who has undergone nine transformations. However, the wives he married all gave birth to sons, other than Liu Wanqing, who is his only daughter,” Shi Changyi explained.

“I see.” Chen Yiming nodded in understanding. If the precious daughter of the Changshi group was hosting the auction, there must be something special about it.

The three of them did not say much, and the first item was soon brought up for auction.

It was a crystal that was emitting a fluorescent light. It was kept under a transparent glass cover, and the audience instantly fell silent. Those who knew what it was were deeply interested in it.

“This is an artifact from a creature from the otherworld, the blood shark. This crystal was formed within its body, which has undergone eight transformations. Consuming it can increase the success rate of breaking through to the ninth transformation,” Liu Wanqing explained. She was straightforward and did not waste any time. 𝙛𝘳𝒆𝒆𝒘e𝗯n𝗼𝘷𝚎𝚕.𝒄૦𝓶

The moment she finished speaking, the audience was in an uproar. They did not expect the first item in the auction to be an item at the level of that usually kept till the finale.

Many people started to make calls hurriedly. Some quickly gathered their funds, while others asked their clan if they could increase their budget.

In East Lake City, only a few items that could help one break through to the ninth transformation would appear in a year. It was unexpected that the

Changshi group would make such a big move when the war had just ended.

It was known that the ninth transformation represented the limit of an ordinary human’s body. The skin of the body could withstand the high temperature of several hundred degrees for a short period of time, and it would not be difficult for them to dive into the river and survive for half an hour.

Compared to the humans who did not participate in any cultivation, he was a real-life superman.

“This is too much!” Chen Yiming exclaimed, his mouth agape. Not long after he started practicing martial arts, a war had broken out in East Lake City. The market was in shambles, and he had never seen anything like this.

“Haha, I reckon that everyone has been feeling suffocated for nearly a year. During wartime, no company would dare to hold such an auction publicly. They were afraid that the items would be confiscated by the government if they were too high-profile,” Shi Changyi slapped his thigh and said cheerfully. His father was a big merchant, so he knew very well what was going on behind the scenes.

“Sigh, what a pity. If it was something that could help me break through the sixth transformation, I might have tried to get it with all my assets.” Wei Chaoyuan sighed.

“Brother Wei, don’t be anxious. Just prepare the money first. There might be something you need later,” Shi Changyi smiled.

Soon, people began to raise their sign and place their bids.

100 million, 150 million, 200 million… 500 million, 510 million.

The price had risen to 500 million before the increase in price started to slow down, but it was still rising.

Ling Shijie suddenly returned to the main hall and called Chen Yiming and the other two out.

At the roadside near the manor, Shi Changyi said in a slightly dissatisfied tone, “Brother Ling, what’s the rush? Can’t we talk about it after the auction?

“That’s right, Brother Ling. I still have to keep an eye on whether or not there are items that may be able to help me break through to the sixth transformation. If I miss out on this opportunity, I don’t know when I’ll get another chance,” Wei Chaoyuan also said unhappily.

Chen Yiming didn’t have any issue with being dragged out of the auction. He couldn’t fork out enough money even if there were things he wanted in the auction, and even if he had the money, he wouldn’t dare to make a bid.

‘To be honest, my father has already decided to compete for the fist technique in the auction,” Ling Shijie said bluntly.

“No way. Although your father is not weak and is the leader of a big sect, can he compete with others in terms of financial ability?” Shi Changyi frowned and asked in surprise.

The sects may be strong in martial arts, but they could hardly compare with companies that engaged in trade in terms of financial ability.

Chen Yiming and Wei Chaoyuan’s hearts skipped a beat at the same time. They both wondered if he had come to ask them for money.

Chen Yiming and Ling Shijie had only just met. Even if he was rich, he couldn’t be so carefree in his management of his money to lend the money to someone he had met only once. As for Wei Chaoyuan, he was looking for an item that he could use to help him break through the sixth transformation. If he lent the money to help his friend, he would have to sacrifice himself.

“Brother Shi, can you do me a small favor? Can you help to link up my father with your father? Everything is up for discussion. We won’t give your family a bad deal,” Ling Shijie pleaded.

“This…” Shi Changyi hesitated. Although he was good friends with Ling Shijie, this wasn’t a matter of a few million or tens of millions. It was a loan of over a

hundred million yuan, and there was a risk of his father getting cheated.

“Brother Chen, Brother Wei, if you can provide assistance, I can use the Blue

Cloud Sect’s assets as collateral.” Seeing that Shi Changyi was considering it,

Ling Shijie turned to Chen Yiming and Wei Chaoyuan and begged them to help.

“Brother Ling, I’m sorry. I’m an amateur who has just broken through to three transformations. I can’t help you,” Chen Yiming found an excuse to reject him.

Ling Shijie didn’t say anything when he heard that. He didn’t have much hope for the person he had just met and was just giving it a shot.

Wei Chaoyuan thought for a moment and said, “If I can’t get anything that can help my body undergo the sixth transformation, I can loan you 50 million yuan.”

“50 million yuan… I’ll use ten shops as collateral and borrow 100 million yuan, how about that?” Ling Shijie wasn’t satisfied and continued to try to borrow more money.

“Real estate prices are plummeting now. East Lake City is an ordinary city, not a provincial city. Ten shops can’t even serve as collateral for 50 million yuan, ‘ Wei Chaoyuan thought to himself.

He refused without thinking any further.

After Chen Yiming and Wei Chaoyuan, only Shi Changyi had yet to reply. This caused Shi Changyi’s mind to be in a mess.

Shi Changyi hesitated for a long time before saying in a low voice, “Alright, we’re good friends after all. But let me make this clear first. I can’t decide how much to lend you. My father will have to make the decision.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he regretted it. He felt like he was going to screw his father over.

“No problem. We’re good friends. Even if we have to sell all of our properties, we won’t cheat you,” Ling Shijie patted his chest and promised.

Next, Ling Shijie asked Shi Changyi for his father’s phone number, then took out his phone to make a call. He said something for nearly a minute before hanging up.

After settling the matter of the loan, the four of them turned around and returned to the main hall of the manor. 𝑓𝔯𝑒e𝘸e𝘣𝓷𝘰ѵe𝚕.c૦𝙢

When he returned to the main hall, the first two items had already been successfully auctioned off. Bids were currently being placed on the third item in the auction.

Chen Yiming found an excuse to bring Chen Yingying to the entrance of the villa. He sent her home and instructed her to wait for him at home before he returned to the Peninsula Villa alone.

When Chen Yiming returned to the main hall and sat down, he noticed that Wei Chaoyuan didn’t look too good.

“What happened?” Chen Yiming asked.

“Brother Wei was just bidding against someone else for an item that could help one break through to the sixth transformation. That person immediately bid twice the price and won the auction,” Shi Changyi replied in place of Wei

Chaoyuan.

Although the Changshi group held an auction every month, the usual auctions were not like this one. An item that could help one break through to the sixth transformation would already be used as the finale of the auction.

This time, by gathering a large number of precious items for auction, the price would actually be much cheaper. He did not expect that he would encounter a person who did not care about the price at all.

“Alright, Brother Shi, there’s no need to mention it again. It’s my fault for not making sufficient preparations. You can’t blame anyone else for this,” Wei Chaoyuan said after thinking it through.

Ling Shijie took Wei Chaoyuan’s 50 million yuan and said in a timely manner, “Brother Wei, you’ve helped me this time. You don’t have to worry about the item that can help your body to undergo the sixth transformation. I’ll get my father to help you search for it immediately after this.”

After Ling Shijie gave his promise, Wei Chaoyuan’s expression finally returned to normal.

Soon, the auction reached its final item, a manual for an incomplete warrior-level fist technique.

However, before he could the fist technique went up for bidding, Liu Liyuan arrived.

This person was tall and had a beard. His eyes were shining brightly, and as soon as he appeared, all the restless thoughts in the audience were silenced.

Those who had undergone nine transformations were only one step away from breaking through to the warrior realm. Out of those who had reached the level of eight transformations, on average, only one in ten would be able to break through to the next level. Once they did, their strength would undergo another qualitative change..
