THE RISE OF THE DRAGON.

235. AUCTIONEERS.

The auction will be held at night, and the old man GAK BUN BENG has sent someone to give UI YONG JIANG

special vip invitations, which would give him the right to obtain a special area in the auction.

These areas were usually left for powerhouses and people from large families who came to attend the auction.

Later that night.

UI YONG JIANG wore light blue long sleeves and trousers, while wearing a mask that covered half of his face, before stepping out of the tavern.

A carriage was already waiting for him outside, the emblem of the GAK organization was boldly drawn on the side of the carriage.

UI YONG JIANG could not help but praise the old man GAK BUN BENG for his wits. Although he wasn't sure he would

getting something out of the auction, he still wanted to see what it would be on display. Maybe something could interest him.

GAK organization building.

It is the largest building in the entire Lapis City. It had a huge market in it, while there was a large hall where the auction would take place.

By the time UI YONG JIANG's carriage got to the building, it was already filled with people standing outside in an orderly manner, waiting to enter.

When UI YONG JIANG's carriage approached the building, the people at the side all turned to see who it was

carried by train. There were many carriages outside, but everyone got down from the carriage and walked towards the gate of the building.

UI YONG JIANG was no exception. He got off the carriage as they approached the building, heading towards the gate in soft steps.

The guards at the gate were already waiting for him, even without seeing his invitation, they knew he was very special since he was brought here by the organization carriage.

“Ke here Sir,” The guards gave way for him to go inside, before closing the gate once again.

UI YONG JIANG did not bother looking around, he directly entered into the building through the door that the guard pointed out.

As soon as she walked inside, a beautiful young lady walked towards her.

“Halo sir, can I see your invitation?” The young lady asked softly.

UI YONG JIANG issued an invitation given to him by the old man GAK BUN BENG.

Upon receiving the letter, the young lady gasped as she looked at the viewing room UI YONG JIANG in the hall was

one of the best around. From the small part of UI YONG JIANG's face that was visible, he could tell that he was very young.

‘He must be from one of the big families,’ he thought.

He did not think about it as long as he returned the letter to UI YONG JIANG before saying, “Look, Sir,”

UI YONG JIANG nodded and followed behind him.

After a few minutes of walking, UI YONG JIANG arrived at the room assigned to him. At the top of the door of the room, six were written boldly on it.

The young lady opened the door for UI YONG JIANG, who immediately entered.

“If you need something, pull that blue rope and I'll come. If you want to bid for any item, pull that red rope,” said the young woman.

“OK,” said UI YONG JIANG before walking towards the thick glass-covered window.

He looked through the window and realized there were rooms like this around the hall. Each room is protected by an arrangement that will keep the spiritual senses away from others.

He tried to look through another window, but he realized there was no way to see what was in the room.

‘Good by the way,’

He walked back to the window seat, before sitting down.

“Hah?” He raised his head in curiosity.

Looking back, he realized the young lady had still not closed the door.

“ADA What ?” She asked.

“Ah...no, I am leaving now Sir,” said the young lady confused before closing the door in haste.

“Eh! Weird,” murmured UI YONG JIANG.

UI YONG JIANG sat quietly while patiently waiting for the auction to begin.

People were still flocking to the hall. He guessed it would be fully charged in the next half hour or so.

Given the number of people he saw outside, he was sure not all of them would be able to enter the hall.

An hour later.

“Gentlemen and ladies, welcome to this month's auction. Because there are some new faces here,

we will state the rules once again.” A heavy voice said, attracting the attention of UI YONG JIANG whose eyes were closed.

The auction rules are very simple, first of all, anyone who makes an offer must make sure that they have the items they offer, he said,

secondly, one should not use their status to intimidate others into not bidding on an item.

There were still a few more rules, but UI YONG JIANG did not really take them into account.

“Now after you all said, I will introduce our host for today.” The burly man said after saying the rules.

“Which is beautiful, miss Verla,” said the burly man while showing the guests to his left.

UI YONG JIANG followed the man's hand, and a beautiful young lady wearing a silver dress walked onto the platform.

He heard from MEI LING that the woman who was always in charge of handling the auction was always beautiful,

although this was her first time attending an auction, she could not refute HER words.

“Halo everyone, it is an honor for me to host you today. May we all get what

all we want at the end of the event,” the young lady's soft and clear voice resounded throughout the hall.

Given the size of that hall, UI YONG JIANG was surprised that her soft voice could be heard so far, effortlessly.

‘Hmm,’ UI YONG JIANG narrowed his eyes, looking at the young lady.

There was something he found strange about his voice, he could not figure it out now.

“There are various items sold today, from how the auction was held before, after ten ordinary items, to,

we will take out one of the few good items we have today,” said the young woman.

The entire hall was silent, waiting for him to continue. Seeing their attention, the young lady nodded calmly before continuing.

“The first item on today's list is an old technique found in a cave deep within the Magical Beasts forest, which is,

it was a fire element technique and its initial price was three hundred and fifty middle grade essence stones. For every bid made, the price must have increased

twenty middle-class essence stones,” The young lady took out a shabby-looking scroll that had dust all around to be honest.

UI YONG JIANG showed no interest in him, throwing a face right after being introduced. He had no interest in learning any techniques for now.

“Three hundred and seventy essence stones!” A voice sounded right after the young lady finished speaking.

“Four hundred!”

“Four hundred twenty!”

The price of this technique quickly soared to five hundred essence stones before it began to slow down.

In the end, it sold for six hundred and forty middle grade essence stones.

After the first item was sold, the young lady took out the next item which was an elemental weapon.

Elemental weapons sold for one thousand two hundred middle grade essence stones.

The auction continued, but nothing could interest UI YONG JIANG. He couldn't help but feel bored.

The entire time all these items were taken out, there was no one in the special room bidding for any items.

UI YONG JIANG guessed they were waiting which the young lady thought was better than this one.

After more than thirty minutes, the young lady finished selling the first ten items on the list,

now it was time to bring out one of the good items he was talking about.

“Alright, as I said from the beginning, after the first ten items, we will take out one of the good items we have.

The item we are going to grab now is something that some people have seen, Griffin eggs,”

The young miss said the last sentence slowly, making sure everyone heard it perfectly.

“What? Griffin Eggs? If the first item on their list is this valuable, it is unimaginable what the last item is.”

“Wow! The auction this time was absolutely amazing!”

Different people voiced their thoughts about the items placed for the auction.

UI YONG JIANG could not help but sit up straight when he heard about the item.

He had seen Griffin before and knew how majestic they were.

He did not believe someone would actually find something like that and was willing to sell it.

‘Sigh , I already have Void, he will oppress other animals that I decided to add to our group,’ He shook his head, resisting the thought of bidding for eggs.
