Eternal Beast Taming Family

The three of them went to three nearby platforms made of green jade crystal. Just as Chu Shengyuan stood in his place, a loud, hoarse voice rang out next to him.

"Hey, isn't this the legendary chosen one? The big shot who can find rare treasures just by walking around, does he really need to attend an auction?"

His words were extremely sarcastic and strange, sounding as if he had a long-standing grudge against Chu Shengyuan.

Chu Shengyuan turned his head and saw that it was his "old acquaintance". "I was really looking forward to this auction, but I was a little disappointed when I saw that you were here. I'm afraid the level won't be very high."

As a member of the academy's demonic sect, Chu Shengyuan's unorthodox and sarcastic skills were naturally not to be outdone by this "old acquaintance."

This "old acquaintance" was also a student at the academy, and came from the Qian family, a sixth-rank noble family. His name was Qian Yongjin. He and Chu Shengyuan were at odds at the academy, and he had been taught a lesson by Chu Shengyuan several times.

Qian Yongjin was not fat; on the contrary, he was excessively thin. Although his accessories were quite valuable, there was a sense of incongruity in them, as if they were stolen.

Hearing Chu Shengyuan's sarcastic retort, Qian Yongjin snorted coldly.

"Even if a poor country boy can borrow an identity to participate in the auction, what can he afford? He can only look on in envy."

Before Chu Shengyuan could speak, Princess Nanli seemed to have noticed the situation and looked intently in Qian Yongjin's direction.

"What's that stinky monkey yelling about? It's awful! You think I won't strip you naked and throw you out?"

As she spoke, Princess Nanli rubbed her hands together, seemingly ready to put her words into action at any moment.

Qian Yongjin looked at Princess Nanli, his face turned pale, and he shut his mouth tightly, not daring to say anything more.

He dared to provoke Chu Shengyuan only because he thought Chu Shengyuan was able to infiltrate their social circle by relying on a teacher, but Princess Nanli was different.

Even within the upper echelons of Qianling City, they might not even look up to her. Even their fathers and grandfathers mostly treated Princess Nanli with utmost respect.

Even if Princess Nanli really puts her words into practice, her father will still have to take her to apologize in person afterwards.

Seeing that he suddenly fell silent, as if his mouth had been sawed off, Nan Li instantly lost interest and turned to look at Chu Shengyuan.

"Xiao Yuan, if you see someone like that in the future, if you can take action, don't waste your breath talking. It's too noisy."

Chu Shengyuan shook his head mysteriously, "It would be more satisfying to argue with someone like that and then beat him up in the end."

Nan Li blinked, a hint of curiosity in her eyes. "Really? Shall we try it next time?"

"Yeah, don't let his skinny appearance fool you, he's tough. He won't break, and we can still have a good time."

Hearing the two people on the other side talking about how it was more fun to beat him with crickets right in front of him, Qian Yongjin's face turned as black as the bottom of a pot.

This little incident didn't last long before the auction officially began.

In front of the many floating platforms, the largest platform appeared, and an elderly person of high domain rank in a long robe with wide sleeves appeared in the center of the platform.

He cupped his hands in greeting to the four directions, "Welcome everyone to the Thousand Spirit City Branch of Treasure Pavilion for the Thousandth Auction."

Because it's a round number, this auction is being held on an unprecedented scale. We hope all our distinguished guests will find something of value at this auction.

As the head of the Treasure Pavilion's Qianling Prefecture branch, I will begin the auction by presiding over the bidding for the first item.

As he spoke, he gently waved his hand, and a treasure box descended from the sky. It slowly opened, revealing a green grass no bigger than the palm of his hand.

"This item is the Rejuvenating Grass, which contains the aura of rules and has a chance to help the source beast awaken to three ranks: Chenyang, Shaoyang, and Mingyang."

The importance of rank is self-evident; its value is immeasurable. With 100,000 spirit stones as the starting price, interested guests are encouraged to make their bids.
