Douluo Continent II: Senior Sister, Please Help Me Cultivate
Chapter 173 Witch Wind: Moving and Moving Again
Chapter 173 Witch Wind: Move~Move Again
Chen Feng and his two companions were led to a VIP room and taken to their seats.
The private room was neither too big nor too small; it was quiet yet exuded luxury in every corner, with opulent decor.
One wall was crystal clear, as if it were made of jade.
The room features a large sofa made of precious animal hides, and on the table in front of it are various drinks, wines, and food.
Inside the room, there were also two beautiful young women in long gold dresses, ready to serve the VIPs at any time.
To protect the privacy of its VIPs, Starlight Auction provides each guest with their own private room where bidding and viewing of auction items take place.
During the auction, two waitresses assist the VIPs with bidding. All food and drinks are complimentary.
After the auction, the items will be delivered to your room immediately. You only need to settle the bill at the end.
The Starlight Auction perfectly embodies the spirit of service, allowing VIPs to simply speak and pay, leaving the rest of the hard work to the service staff.
Seeing the soft sofa in the private room, Chen Feng and his two companions sat down without hesitation.
Chen Feng sat in the middle, with Ning Tian and Wu Feng sitting on either side of him.
Ning Tian smiled and asked the attentive auctioneer beside him, "What's the scale of today's auction?"
The young lady said respectfully, "Distinguished guest, this is Hall No. 12, which can accommodate two hundred people to bid at the same time. It is specially used for Level 4 auctions."
A single sentence is enough to explain a Level 4 auction. As a seasoned auction enthusiast, Ning Tian is intimately familiar with the ins and outs of auctions.
From the mention of a Level 4 auction, Ning Tian knew that this auction would definitely not have anything good; it would probably consist of items of little value.
Even if there's something Chen Feng is interested in, he can probably afford it himself, so I don't need to spend money on him. (╯>д<)╯
Ning Tian was clearly quite troubled by the fact that the auction was not of a high enough level.
Ning Tian thought to himself, "It seems that if I want to win over Chen Feng, I'll have to start from other angles."
Sitting next to Chen Feng, Wu Feng looked at Chen Feng's perfect profile and started thinking about how to find common ground.
Chen Feng glanced at Wu Feng beside him and noticed that Wu Feng had changed quite a bit since they last met.
Her short red hair, which she had when we first met, has now grown much longer, and her red eyes hold a hint of shyness.
Her features are extremely delicate, and her skin is as white as jade. Her already full figure, which far exceeds that of her peers, is now starting to catch up with that of her older female classmates.
A pair of long, slender, and powerful thighs, paired with a plump, upturned buttocks, make her figure look tall, slender, and beautiful.
But it also gives off a feeling of explosive power. Given time, it may very well be able to rival Ma Xiaotao.
Chen Feng glanced at Wu Feng, then at Ning Tian beside him.
(;一_一), cough cough, Ning Tian, you should learn more from Wu Feng. You can't just grow taller without gaining weight...
However, Chen Feng glanced at his old classmate twice and then looked away. Having lived two lives, Chen Feng was now thirty years old. Although beautiful young girls were nice, Chen Feng still preferred mature women.
Both Ma Xiaotao and Ling Luochen are almost twenty, and Wu Ming is approaching thirty.
However, Chen Feng stopped looking at his two old classmates beside him, who were constantly observing him.
Wu Feng quietly moved closer to Chen Feng, getting even closer to him.
If Chen Feng and Wu Feng were originally about 20 centimeters apart, with Wu Feng's stealthy movement, they are now only a palm's width apart.
As for getting any closer, Wu Feng dared not. As he approached, Wu Feng's breathing became slightly rapid, and his heart began to pound wildly.
As Wu Feng smelled Chen Feng's scent, her originally fair and delicate face turned rosy.
Wu Feng wanted to say something to Chen Feng, but for a moment he didn't know how to start.
Looking at Wu Feng's clumsy appearance, Ning Tian thought to himself, "I'll have to strike up a conversation. Wu Feng probably can't do it on his own."
Ning Tian smiled and said to Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, when you were studying in the inner courtyard, did you ever think about me and Wu Feng, your classmates in the outer courtyard? Wu Feng talks about you every day~"
Upon hearing Ning Tian's words, Wu Feng's pretty face instantly turned bright red, almost steaming. Wu Feng said anxiously, "Young Master, don't talk nonsense. I don't say that every day."
Ning Tian joked, "If you're not saying it every day, then how are you saying it? Every two days? Are you thinking about it all the time?"
Chen Feng smiled and said, "I often think back to my days in Class 9 of the freshmen when I'm in the inner courtyard. By the way, how's Wu Yue doing lately?"
Ning Tian's mind raced, and he thought of Chen Feng's roommate, Wu Yue. However, Ning Tian didn't say anything, but deliberately gestured to Wu Feng to speak.
Wu Feng, who was standing to the side, was wondering how to talk to Chen Feng. Seeing that Ning Tian had created an opportunity for him, he quickly said.
"Wu Yue didn't put much effort into his cultivation. After a year, his soul power only increased by three levels... In the second-year entrance exam, his grades were poor, and his core disciple status was revoked..."
Upon hearing Wu Feng's words, Chen Feng learned that Wu Yue had followed him through the entire freshman assessment, managing to enjoy the benefits of a core disciple, yet remained unchanged.
He didn't work hard in his cultivation, just drifted along, and then performed poorly in the entrance exam, resulting in the cancellation of his core disciple status.
Chen Feng nodded and stopped asking. He knew that if he didn't work hard and seize opportunities, no matter how lucky he was, it would be useless.
Wu Feng said to Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, you don't need to feel sorry for Wu Yue. He didn't work hard, so he deserves this."
Chen Feng looked at Wu Feng and said, "Wu Feng, your cultivation has improved very quickly. You are now a Soul Venerable. This has impressed me."
When Wu Feng heard Chen Feng's praise, his cute little ears turned red.
Wu Feng cultivated diligently this year, turning his affection for Chen Feng into motivation, because Wu Feng knew that if he wasn't good enough, he wouldn't be able to meet Chen Feng.
In order to get closer to Chen Feng and to see him, Wu Feng's willpower was at its peak. With the support of Shrek Academy's training for core disciples, Wu Feng worked hard and made rapid progress.
As expected, hard work pays off. Wu Feng became a member of Shrek Academy's reserve team and had contact with Chen Feng once again.
Wu Feng clenched his fist, looking into Chen Feng's deep black eyes. He couldn't help but move closer to Chen Feng... he was practically touching him.
Just then, the auction began.
"Welcome to Starlight Auction House. Our auction is about to begin. Please take your seats." A woman in a purple dress walked onto the stage from one side of the auction hall.
The host appeared to be around thirty years old, with a dignified and beautiful appearance, and a professional, subtle, perfect smile on her face. Her movements were graceful and elegant, and her beautiful long dress perfectly accentuated her fully mature figure.
The exposed white legs beneath the long skirt caused the LSPs in the hall to occasionally glance up at the auction stage on the high platform.
That's why long skirts are worn. The auction platform is a full two meters high. If you wear a short skirt, it would be a complete exposure of your private parts, giving the guests below a good look.
However, Starlight Auction is an auction with the Star Luo Royal Family as its background, so it obviously wouldn't do something so vulgar.
Not to mention the auctioneers, even the young women in the VIP room were dressed in long skirts and were simply service staff.
The auctioneer's beautiful voice spread outwards from the auction stage.
The auction hall fell silent. The already dim wall lamps gradually dimmed, while the lights on the auction stage began to shine brighter.
Chen Feng and his two companions were in a private room as VIPs, while the others were in the auction hall.
As the auction began, the large screen on the wall of the private room lit up instantly.
The scene on the auction stage can be clearly seen on the screen.
Ning Tian said to Chen Feng, "Chen Feng, soul tools are becoming more and more advanced. I've noticed that more and more students are using soul tools in this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Battle Tournament."
Chen Feng nodded and said seriously, "That's right, soul tools are the trend of the times. In the future, whoever lags behind in soul tool technology will be beaten."
Ning Tian looked at Chen Feng with surprise in his heart. After all, most students, teachers, and even the dean of Shrek Academy believed that soul tools were heretical and external, and that only one's own martial soul was fundamental.
Ning Tian was also surprised that Chen Feng, as the most talented student among the younger generation of Shrek Academy, would approve of soul tools so much. She thought that Chen Feng would criticize soul tools like the traditional soul masters with powerful martial souls at Shrek Academy.
Ning Tian looked at Chen Feng and became more and more satisfied. If she weren't so attached to her position as the sect leader of the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School, Ning Tian would really want to marry Chen Feng.
Ning Tian sighed inwardly, and for a moment, he lost all interest in talking. He picked up a drink from the table in front of the sofa and started drinking.
Compared to Chen Feng and his two companions inside the private room, the auction hall outside the private room had a completely different feel.
Two hundred comfortable chairs were filled with people, each wearing a mask to conceal their identity.
The color of the mask represents the guest's rank, matching the color of the soul ring. White is the lowest, red is the highest, and gold, which surpasses red, represents the top VIPs of the Starlight Auction.
At this moment, the auctioneer in the purple dress walked to the back of the auction stage with a smile, using the amplifying soul guide on the auction table to spread her gentle voice.
"Good evening, everyone. I am Qingya, a purple-level auctioneer from Starlight Auction House. I will be hosting this auction tonight."
After speaking, she stepped out from behind the auction table, smiled, and bowed to the audience, immediately winning a round of applause.
Returning to the table, Qingya smiled slightly and said, "Today's auction is a special session for soul tools. All the items are soul tools below level six. They are suitable for soul masters and soul instructors with cultivation levels of Soul King or below."
We also have a special surprise gift prepared for you. Don't miss it, dear guests! Our auction is now beginning; please welcome our staff to present today's first item.
As soon as Qingya finished speaking, two girls in red dresses pushed a small cart onto the auction stage. The cart was covered with a purple cloth. They pushed the cart to the center and stopped, then lifted the cloth.
A black soul tool was on the cart. The soul tool was rectangular, about a foot long, and engraved with intricate spiral patterns, which was quite beautiful.
Auctioneer Qingya smiled and said, "Our first item is a level three attack soul tool. The soul ray has a paralyzing effect. Once hit, all soul masters below the Soul King level will be affected, and the degree of the effect is related to the soul master's own cultivation level."
"This soul-guided paralysis ray has low requirements for the user, but is extremely practical. It is a rare gem among level three soul tools. The starting bid is 1,000 gold soul coins, and each bid must be at least 50 gold soul coins. Let's begin."
Inside the private room, Ning Tian remarked, "This soul tool is quite useful." Then, turning to the young woman in the long gold dress beside him, he declared generously, "Two thousand gold soul coins!"
"Yes, sir!"
The girl in the long gold dress quickly pressed the bidding device in her hand, transmitting Ning Tian's bid to Qingya on the auction stage.
Qingya asked with delight, "Two thousand gold soul coins, is anyone else bidding?"
Upon hearing Qingya's words, the two hundred guests in the auction hall looked around and realized that it wasn't the guests in the auction hall who had made the bids.
Immediately, people started discussing, "This is a VIP guest with a private room at the auction. It's really rare to see a VIP at an auction of this caliber."
As Ning Tian made his bid, the entire auction hall fell silent; no one dared to compete with the wealthy VIP.
After seeing that there were no bidders in the entire auction hall, Qingya began the final three rounds of bidding.
"Two thousand gold soul coins, once."
"Two thousand gold soul coins, twice."
"Two thousand gold soul coins, three times."
"Bang!" The auction gavel struck.
"Sold. This Soul-Guiding Paralysis Ray is now the property of the mysterious VIP."
The auction continued, and as a special session for soul tools, the vast majority of the items were level three to five soul tools.
This level of soul tool was of no use to Chen Feng, so he just watched the spectacle and did not participate in the bidding.
Chen Feng was waiting for the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife.
Ning Tian did auction off quite a few soul tools that interested him, but this amount of money was just a drop in the ocean for the wealthy and powerful Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School.
To Chen Feng's surprise, there was another VIP in the private room who was bidding against Ning Tian.
This surprised Chen Feng quite a bit, since it's rare for a small auction of this level to have high-ranking VIPs attending.
This time, two of them came at once, something that had never happened in the original destiny. Chen Feng could only sigh that his influence was growing.
As each item was auctioned off, the second-to-last item was soon up: Qingya, dressed in a long purple dress.
"Next up is the penultimate item for auction: a level four soul tool, the Milk Bottle!! Its function is simple: it replenishes a soul master's soul power. Starting bid: six thousand gold soul coins!"
Upon seeing the baby bottle, Ning Tian immediately said to the girl in the long gold dress beside him, "Twenty thousand!"
As Ning Tian made his bid, the auctioneer Qingya on the auction stage exclaimed in surprise, "Twenty thousand, twenty thousand gold soul coins! Are there any other VIPs who would like to make a bid?"
