You said mechs were going to fight monsters, but instead you're destroying stars with your bare

Chapter 92 I like to watch women fight the most
Upon hearing this, Li Zhe suddenly realized what was going on.

It turns out it was an internal conflict within Universe 1!

My hastily printed copy of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" unexpectedly became the core of their magical duel.

Interesting, really interesting.

He simply leaned back in his seat and watched the play with great interest.

Watching two beautiful, rich, and successful women fight tooth and nail over a worthless book... this feeling...

Tsk tsk, even more satisfying than personally taking down a few elite monsters.

On the auction stage, Song Yuan and the woman in pink took turns bidding.

Each price increase was accompanied by a silent exchange of glances between the two.

The atmosphere in the auction hall gradually shifted from initial disdain and incomprehension to curiosity and shock at the internal contradictions of Universe 1.

"What...what's going on? Have the people of Universe 1 gone mad?"

"Is it really worth it for a lousy book? Does it hold the secret to becoming a god?"

"Who cares, as long as there's a good show to watch!"

Even a few mecha pilots, eager to stir up trouble, joined in and bid several times.

"Hey, I'll offer 18 merit points!" shouted a steam-powered mech pilot from Universe 4.

However, he just finished speaking.

Song Yuan and Liu Yi's icy, knife-like gazes fell upon him simultaneously.

The murderous intent in his eyes seemed to penetrate the data projection and freeze his steam core directly.

"Uh……"

The steam-powered mech pilot shuddered at the glare, instinctively shrinking back and waving his hand with an awkward laugh.

"Um... I was just joking, please continue, please continue..."

Having learned from this experience, no one dared to easily interfere in their "battle of the gods" anymore.

The price soared to twenty merit points.

When Liu Yi raised the price to 24 merit points, Song Yuan's projection had become somewhat illusory, clearly a sign of excessive mental energy consumption.

But she still took a deep breath, almost exhausting all her strength, and announced the final price in an unquestionable tone.

"25 merits!"

The moment the price was announced, the entire room fell into a deathly silence once again.

The woman in pink looked at Song Yuan's exhausted appearance and a smug smile appeared on her face.

She knew that she had achieved her goal.

Continuing to follow along would not only be pointless, but might also expose more of your own cards.

"Hehe, since Sister Song likes it so much, then I'll do you a favor and give it to you."

She chuckled softly, gracefully leaned back in her seat, and stopped haggling over the price.

"25 merits once!"

"25 merits twice!"

"25 merits, three times!"

"make a deal!"

With the auctioneer's exciting hammer fall, this seemingly ordinary book, the Classic of Mountains and Seas, was finally sold for a sky-high price of 25 merit points.

[Ding! Transaction complete. Your account has been credited with 25 Merit Points.]

Li Zhe was in a great mood as he looked at his account balance, which had instantly jumped from 5 to 30 merit points.

He looked to his side, where the projection had become semi-transparent, as if Song Yuan could disappear at any moment.

This girl really went to great lengths to get this book.

After completing the transaction, Song Yuan let out a long sigh of relief. Although her deep eyes showed a hint of fatigue, they also held a great deal of satisfaction and joy at having achieved her goal.

She turned her gaze to Li Zhe, her tone carrying a hint of helpless bitterness.

"I'm sorry to have made you laugh... It seems this is my destined tribulation. To obtain the true treasure, I must pay this price."

Li Zhe simply nodded calmly, without offering much of his opinion.

He didn't want to get involved in the grudges and conflicts of Universe 1, nor was he bothered to get involved.

Instead of wasting time on this, you should think more about how to use this windfall to empower yourself.

With the auction of the "Classic of Mountains and Seas" concluded, the auction continues.

"Alright everyone! Let's get ready for the next treasure!"

The host, with his infectious voice, reignited the atmosphere in the room.

"Next, our friends from Universe 1 will present a mysterious artifact! Please look at the big screen!"

As he spoke, the display case in the center of the auction stage slowly descended.

Instead, a completely new holographic projection was created.

Within the projection, a weapon floats silently...

Or rather, it was a rusty, unremarkable fragment of an ancient sword.

The fragment was about the size of a palm, with an uneven break. The blade was covered with dark red rust and marks of time, looking like scrap metal dug out of some remote ancient tomb.

[Lot Fourteen: Unknown Ancient Sword Blade Fragment (from Universe 1)]

[Quality: unknown]

[Type: Material/Weapon?]

[Description: This object was accidentally discovered in a deep-sea ruin. Its material is unknown, yet it is indestructible and contains some kind of peculiar energy that is difficult to analyze. Perhaps... it hides some unknown secret?]

Starting bid: 1 Merit Points

[Each price increase: no less than 1 merit point]

As soon as this item was put up for auction, another murmur of discussion arose from the audience.

"What's going on? Are all the people in Universe 1 out of their minds?"

"First they fought over a tattered book, and now they're bringing over a piece of scrap metal? Do they think this place is a junkyard?"

"This thing... you'd probably find it too uncomfortable to even use as a gua sha tool, wouldn't you?"

"One merit point? I wouldn't take it even if it were free, it's just taking up space."

Everyone shook their heads, their faces filled with incomprehension and disdain.

In their view, this thing, like the previous "Classic of Mountains and Seas," was worthless garbage.

Li Zhe wasn't particularly interested in this either, and was just about to slack off and wait for the next item to be auctioned.

However, at this moment.

Xing's voice, however, carried an unprecedented solemnity as it resounded in his mind.

"Commander, lock onto this item immediately and acquire it at all costs!"

"Hmm?" Li Zhe's heart skipped a beat. "What do you mean? Is there anything special about this thing?"

"Commander, based on my high-precision scanning and data comparison, I can confirm it with 100% certainty..."

Xing paused, as if organizing her thoughts to explain in a way that Li Zhe could understand.

"This fragment contains an extremely subtle yet incredibly pure power of dimensional laws. Its energy model has a 97.3% similarity to the [Steel Soul_YAMATO] you obtained before."

"That is to say..."

“Yes, Commander.” Xing’s tone was tinged with barely suppressed excitement. “This is very likely a fragment of the ‘Dimensional Key’.”

"However, its core seems to be locked by an extremely ancient and mysterious power, and its power can only be fully unlocked by reciting its 'true name'."
