Under the illumination of the lights, her enchanting figure and mature, charming face suddenly appeared before everyone’s eyes.
“This figure, this face, this demeanor, she’s exactly like the goddess in my heart.” Duan Qing stared dumbstruck at the woman on the auction stage, drool glistening as it dripped down his mask.
“This Liu Yan is truly the chief auctioneer of the Purple Gold Auction in Spirit Martial Prefecture, a true unparalleled beauty indeed.” A middle-aged martial artist sitting nearby with his eyes squinted, quietly muttered while looking at the woman on the auction stage.
Lu Yun’s gaze involuntarily skimmed over the impressive area of her chest.
He never rejected anything beautiful or attractive, and when in the mood, he would even pause to appreciate it properly.
But now, his interest was clearly not focused on her ample bosom.
His gaze casually swept over the auction table, which was now clean and tidy, without any auction items on it.
At this moment, Liu Yan gave a slight smile, her rosy cherry-like mouth slightly opening.
“Good evening, everyone! Welcome to the Purple Gold Auction. 1 am the host of this auction, Liu Yan. 1 assume many of you know me, and of course, those who do not know me may take the chance to get to know me now.”
Even though Liu Yan looked mature and charming, her voice was sweet and soft, causing an involuntary tingling sensation in people’s hearts.
Even under the dim and dark environment, there were many lecherous fellows in the venue who started to grope themselves, and their eyes quickly became dreamy.
“Damn, there are actually people doing this kind of thing in such a public gathering!” Lu Yun under his mask was speechless, thinking that no matter if it’s Blue Star or here, there are always shameless people everywhere.
He shook his head with a bitter smile, looked around once more, and finding no vacant seats, Lu Yun could only forcibly endure.
“What’s wrong?” Duan Qing moved his lascivious gaze from Liu Yan’s enchanting figure to Lu Yun, and saw him looking around.
“I should have checked the calendar before stepping out. I’m having a really bad day.”
“Calendar?” Duan Qing’s chubby face under the mask was full of perplexion.
Lu Yun casually explained, “It’s a kind of treasure that can predict good or bad fortune.”
Seeing the excitement and agitation of the crowd, Liu Yan gave a slight smile, immediately transforming into a myriad of enchanting expressions, making the atmosphere even more lively.
Seeing the effect was about right, Liu Yan became serious, saying, “Alright, to not waste everyone’s time, let’s officially start with the auction.”
“Please bring the first item onto the stage.”
As Liu Yan’s alluring voice dropped, a beautiful woman stepped up gracefully, holding a delicate purple jade dish, covered with a golden piece of silk.
The purple jade dish was placed on the auction table, Liu Yan extended her delicate pale hand to gently lift the golden silk.
Instantaneously, an antique-looking martial arts book appeared before everyone’s eyes.
“The first auction item is a first grade martial arts book, named Soul-Devouring Light Slash, 1 think, everyone should be very interested. Don’t miss the chance if you want to have it.”
Liu Yan’s tempting red lips slightly opened, her enchanting and soft voice causing everyone below the stage to stir, their desires flaring.
Martial artists inherently had robust vitality, and the ones with weaker willpower could hardly resist such a seductress.
Lu Yun of Pure Yang Martial Arts Canon, with even more robust vitality, though his will was firm, he also felt a little influence, his body gradually growing hot.
“What a seductress.” Muttering under his breath, the bloody lotus platform in his Sea of Consciousness subtly trembled, a wave of murderous intent permeated outwards, and he instantly cooled down.
Most martial artists weren’t all that eager for the appeal of women, hence they could suppress their desires.
However, the desire for first grade martial arts was much harder to suppress.
Although Morigin advocated martial arts across the world, it was limited to the army and the martial academy.
In other occasions, transactions or sales exceeding second grade martial arts were strictly prohibited.
Now, having encountered such a chance at the auction, one could not let it pass by.
Seeing that the crowd had become restless, a smile unfolded once more across Liu Yan’s mature and charming face.
“Hehe, the starting bid for Soul-Devouring Light Slash is five spirit crystals, and each increase in bid must not be less than one spirit crystal.”
Liu Yan said with a smile. Her gaze scanned through the many martial artists in the hall, as she knew that this first-grade martial arts book had the greatest attraction to the martial artists and the weaker families. As for the few people in the boxes, they probably viewed the first-grade martial arts book with disinterest.
“Six spirit crystals!” The moment Liu Yan’s words fell, a martial artist raised his placard to increase the bid.
“I bid seven spirit crystals!” Almost instantaneously, someone behind him raised his placard to increase the bid.
“Think you can win a first-grade martial arts book with seven spirit crystals? You must be daydreaming. I bid ten spirit crystals.”
“Eleven spirit crystals!” Just after the arrogant man raised his placard, instantly someone else increased the bid.
“IWelve spirit crystals!”
The bids inside the venue surged continuously, the noise at the auction becoming more chaotic. Thankfully, bids were identified by raised placards, or else it would be impossible to tell who increased the bid.
Very soon, the price of the Soul-Devouring Light Slash, a first grade martial arts book, rose to twenty spirit crystals.
Meanwhile, Lu Yun casually lay on his seat, looking at the lively atmosphere in the venue, feeling a bit relieved.
It was fortunate that he had entered the Flying Spirit Martial Academy back then, or else he might have ended up just like these martial artists who were hurriedly increasing their bids..
