Junior sister took first place again

Inside the Dongguang Pavilion, the exquisite palace lanterns slowly changed color, and together with the sudden appearance of the luminous pearls dotted everywhere, the previously unique atmospheric lighting instantly became brightly lit.

The soft music that had played when they entered was replaced by the soothing and elegant rhythm of the guqin. A young man with an elegant appearance came on stage and opened the show with a clear voice:

"Thank you all for coming to the Chaoge Auction. The Chamber of Commerce has relied on the support of heroes from all walks of life. Over the past ten years..."

What followed was a long and tedious opening speech. Ning Jiasheng was impatient to listen, so he used magic to peel the fragrant grapes on the table one by one and put them into his mouth.

Liu Shuyao ran to the window and looked down with great interest.

Ning Jiasheng used his spiritual power to place a plate of spiritual melon seeds and a cup of tea next to her, and said with a smile: "Shuyao, it's more interesting to eat and watch at the same time. Don't be polite with me."

Liu Shuyao didn't want to refuse Sister Lian Sheng's kindness, so she hurriedly took the melon seeds and teacup, smiled sweetly and said:

"Okay, thank you Sister Lian Sheng."

"I think Shuyao has only just established her foundation. What people are saying now is all nonsense. Shuyao can watch this while eating melon seeds, practicing the control of her spiritual power and consolidating her cultivation."

As Ning Jiasheng spoke, he used his spiritual power to pick up dozens of melon seeds from the plate, arranged them into various animal shapes in the air, and flew towards him.

Then there was a rhythmic crackling sound, and the melon seeds cracked one by one, and the plump kernels flowed into an empty cup on the table like a stream.

"like this."

Ning Jiasheng looked at her with a smile.

Liu Shuyao looked at him with sparkling eyes, nodded vigorously, ran over to get an empty cup, and ran to sit by the window.

She had indeed just established her foundation not long ago. Although it was not difficult for her to take objects from a distance, she was not familiar with the control of spiritual power. She could not manipulate several melon seeds at the same time like Ning Jiasheng, shaping them as she pleased and taking out the kernels.

At first, Liu Shuyao could only tremblingly pick up a dozen melon seeds, but she couldn't arrange them into the shape she wanted, and one or two would fall from time to time.

But she was not discouraged and was very patient. Whenever something fell, she would use her spiritual power to pick it up and clean it, trying again and again without getting tired of it.

Ning Jiasheng looked at it for a while, then poured the melon seeds into his mouth in one gulp and continued eating grapes.

By the time Liu Shuyao was able to use the dozen or so melon seeds to make a rabbit, the people downstairs had finally finished talking nonsense.

"...Liuyun City Chaoge Auction has officially begun!"

Ning Jiasheng became interested and looked towards the stage.

"Now, please bring out the first item for this auction!"

After the emcee finished speaking, a beautiful lady in a light gauze came out holding a tray with just the right smile on her face.

The red cloth covering it was a magical tool that could conceal the aura of the treasure underneath and also block the spiritual detection of most cultivators. Many cultivators in the hall were itching to see what was happening and stretched their necks to look.

The emcee lifted the red cloth, and the vibrations of a top-grade earth-level magic weapon instantly ignited the atmosphere in the venue. It was an exquisite dagger inlaid with three-colored gems.

The emcee held up the dagger and displayed it. It shone with a golden glow, akin to an Earth-grade magical weapon. "This dagger was forged from lapis lazuli by Yang Jing, a master of the Xuanling Sect's Hundred Weapons Peak. It's called Huasha, and it's a top-grade Earth-grade magical weapon."

He continued his introduction clearly and loudly, "As you all know, lapis lazuli, also known as spirit-absorbing stone, is an extremely rare refining material. Therefore, Master Yang has only been able to forge this one dagger with all the materials he has. Furthermore, the Hua Sha is a growing magical weapon. Master Yang has said that if the owner of the Hua Sha ever gathers the upgrade materials, he can come to the Xuanling Sect and ask him for a free upgrade."

Seeing such a high-level magic weapon coming right at the beginning, many people in the lobby were already interested. There were also some monks upstairs who didn't care about showing up, so they lifted the glittering gauze curtain and looked at the first floor.

Ning Jiasheng didn't open the curtains. She glanced at Liu Shuyao, who was so focused on playing with melon seeds that she didn't even notice the auction had started.

Ning Jiasheng nodded with a sense of accomplishment. Now she could use twenty-three melon seeds to make more complicated patterns.

The emcee downstairs finally finished his elaboration and said in a slightly raised voice, "...Hua Sha's starting price is 24,000 high-grade spirit stones. Everyone, please bid."

As soon as the words fell, the monks in the hall couldn't wait to start bidding.

"Twenty-five thousand high-grade spirit stones!"

"Thirty thousand."

"Thirty-five thousand."

"........."

Ning Jiasheng sighed in her heart, weapon refiners really make money. Before she went down the mountain, her senior brother gave her spirit stones, and with the ones given by her master, she is now a wealthy woman.

With them around, Ning Jiasheng no longer had any idea about the large sums of spirit stones.

After all, in her previous life, she was able to buy a house in full at the age of 25, but with her master and senior brothers around in this life, she really had no motivation to make money.

When the price climbed to 50,000, the bidding voices gradually became rare, and Hua Sha was bought by a female cultivator in the No. 1 private room on the third floor for 66,000 high-quality spirit stones.

Ning Jiasheng guessed that the fairy was probably attracted by Hua Sha's appearance when taking the photo.

Because daggers are rarely used as serious weapons, several monks who were bidding in the lobby just now were definitely the kind of people who were walking in the gray area.

"Congratulations to the fairy in the private room number one on the third floor. Please wait a moment, the flower killer will be delivered to you shortly."

The master of ceremonies nodded, and the lady retreated with the flowers in her hands.

"Next, please present today's second auction item."

It was still a woman with a graceful figure and bold clothes who walked out gracefully holding a tray covered with a red cloth.

The emcee lifted the red cloth, and in the translucent jade box lay three round and plump lavender pills. The fragrant smell of the pills instantly filled the surroundings.

"I'm sure everyone is familiar with the Marrow Cleansing Pill. This is a fourth-grade, top-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill refined by True Monarch Li Qiuhan of the Bishui Sect. It's free of impurities and can improve the physique and potential of even Jindan cultivators."

"The starting price for each is five thousand high-grade spirit stones. Please bid."

"Twenty thousand!"

Just as the emcee finished speaking, a hoarse voice, indistinguishable between male and female, was heard in the middle of the hall. It seemed that this person was determined to get the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Ning Jiasheng turned his head and saw that the man's face was also hidden behind the veil, blocking others' prying eyes.

She had no interest in prying into other people's privacy, so she withdrew her gaze and continued to look at the stage.

"Twenty thousand high-grade spirit stones once."

"Twenty thousand high-grade spirit stones for the second time."

"two......"

"Twenty-three thousand."

The host felt slightly relieved, almost thinking that the first pill had been bought like this.

The monk wearing a veil on his head glanced at the bidder and said angrily:

"forty thousand."

The other party hesitated for a moment and gave up raising the price.

There are three pills in total. This person bid so high for the first one, obviously he wanted the Marrow Cleansing Pill. If he continues to bid more, it will disrupt the prices of the following pills. It is better to wait and bid normally for the second one.

The emcee shouted "40,000 high-grade spirit stones" three times, but no one bid. The mysterious man won the first marrow cleansing pill.

Then the second one was bought in private room No. 5 on the second floor for 41,000 high-grade spirit stones, with the price increasing by three to two thousand each time.

The bidding for the last melon seed became more intense than the previous ones. Ning Jiasheng temporarily withdrew her gaze because Liu Shuyao was holding a full cup of melon seeds and looking at her expectantly.

"Sister Liansheng, please."

Ning Jiasheng supported his head with one hand and said with great joy: "Shuyao, eat by yourself..."

Liu Shuyao pursed her lips, and instantly two pools of water welled up. Ning Jiasheng suddenly remembered a cat head emoji package he had seen before [Little pearls are about to fall.jpg.]

She quickly stopped talking and laughed:

"Ah! Shuyao is making great progress! She can even make a lifelike crane in just a short while. I can't wait to try these unique melon seeds and see how delicious they are."

Ning Jiasheng took it and began to eat it, praising it as he ate, "It's indeed more fragrant than ordinary melon seeds. Shuyao, go watch the auction. I've had enough. If you peel more, you have to eat it yourself."

As he was speaking, he heard the host shout "Fifty-two thousand high-grade spirit stones for three times" and bought the third marrow cleansing pill.

Liu Shuyao burst into laughter, nodded heavily, and went to the window to practice again with a cheerful pace. She kept adjusting each pose, and after admiring it for a while, she stopped to look outside.

Ning Jiasheng looked at the cup of melon seeds, used his spiritual power to draw an emoticon on the table, and suddenly shook his head and laughed in his heart.
