Why isn't what I command considered a beast?

"【Fearless Street-Breaking Aunties】Team member 【Colorful】bid 1.11 billion. Congratulations to this customer for triggering the hidden card. It has been sent to your personal backend. Please check it in time."

Mingxi chuckled inwardly, and under the intense gazes of her teammates who couldn't see her face, she silently opened the personal backend of the event connected to the terminal.

This event was very well organized.

In addition to personal information, the personal backend also has a "warehouse" icon.

Mingxi opened the [Warehouse] and sure enough, she saw a dark gold card image lying there.

Click.

After a dazzling light and color effect, a bomb icon appears on the screen, and the card information pops up the next second.

【Self-Destruction (2)】: A bomb that may be triggered at any time during the event. Within 5 minutes after the explosion, the cardholder will be seriously injured, unable to move actively, and unable to obtain any form of points.

Note 1: This card cannot be exchanged, traded, actively triggered, or used by other participants in the event.

Note 2: The rule card [Heal (2)] can be used to remove the severe injury status.

fall!

(╯‵ ′)╯︵┻━┻

commit a sin.

111 is such a good number, so why does it trigger a card with a negative effect, and why is it a card that only brings bad luck to the user?

She's going to break off all ties with that old bastard Chu Kuangsheng for 111 seconds!

"Wu Cai, a member of the Goddess Team, has bid 1.1125 billion Star Coins!"

While Mingxi was inwardly seething with resentment and gritting her teeth, her face remained as calm as a rock, Ye Linyu's voice forcibly pulled her back to reality.

There really is a Wu Cai.

Injustice!

This person followed her bid closely and even deliberately raised the price by 250 million star coins. If it weren't for the fact that he was trying to annoy her, Mingxi would have written her name backwards.

"I told you, that woman Wu Cai has her eye on you." Mom laughed gleefully from the side.

Mingxi remained silent.

"Wu Cai, a member of the Goddess Team, offered 2.11 billion yuan."

While everyone on the other teams was silently complaining, Wu Cai once again outbid herself, adding 10 billion with an air of dominance.

This is clearly a way of telling everyone that 250 million represents Wu Cai's attitude towards the so-called Wu Cai who is impersonating her.

10 billion is her true strength!

Mingxi, who had been mocked for her money, exclaimed, "What a spendthrift!"

Even if the exquisite stone glue is precious, 10 billion Star Coins is already considered a high premium.

Mingxi estimates its true value will not exceed 3 million.

Because this thing only works on Soul Star Fate, but how many pet beasts in the world have Soul Star Fate?

Mingxi was willing to offer 11 billion because of her deep love for her Lan Yue Liang.

As it turns out, Wu Cai spent 21 billion to buy something worth no more than 3 million, which is very likely to be just for decoration. It seems like she has too much money to burn.

Of course, they might simply be after the points.

Not much to say.

Mingxi could only say sorry to Lan Yueliang.

It's not that their beast tamer is too poor; it's just that she's a normal person, but she's mentally ill.

"Congratulations to Wu Cai, a member of the Goddess Team, for successfully bidding on the Exquisite Stone Glue! Congratulations also on triggering the hidden card!"

The second item triggered three rule cards, making the first item, which didn't trigger a single rule card, seem utterly insignificant.

Regardless of what people have in mind.

The auction is still ongoing.

The third item was an S-rank item, a defensive item. Mingxi liked wind and umbrellas, so she wasn't very interested in this item, but she still followed the crowd and bid.

It's all for the sake of the rules.

Ultimately, the item was won by Zhou Fang from their group of middle-aged women.

Mingxi figured it out: people who use their real names are usually not short of money.

Their financial power gave them absolute confidence.

Zhou Fang also obtained a revealed card, [Reflect], which can defend against and reflect any reverse card used against him once.

Clearly, this is a very good rule card, and even though it's face-up, it's still quite useful.

Knowing full well that someone can reflect your cards, you still use them on them. You must have something seriously wrong with your brain.

The deterrent effect is excellent.

Mingxi, who was on the same team, was so envious he cried.

Mingxi's luck was indeed not good tonight. She participated in the next seven auctions, but failed to trigger the rule cards again.

Although all the participants displayed their passion (money) and enthusiasm (power) without reservation throughout the auction, they only triggered 11 rule cards.

Mingxi seems incredibly lucky to be on the 1/11 list.

But [self-destruct (2)], do you want this luck?

The dog, Mingxi, sneakily summoned Xiaoyinhua. Anyway, Bai Ling had said that only the participants of the event were projected in this team space.

Their personal attendants and the pets of the participants will not be projected.

So Mingxi didn't hesitate to increase her stakes.

Lady Luck, I need you!

"...After a fierce auction, the first phase of the team-up event has come to an end. Now, based on the auction results, we will announce the rankings of each team's points."

Our [Goddess Team] is currently in first place with 49 points! Congratulations to them!

The second place is almost on par with our Goddess Team, the God Team, with 48 points. Congratulations to them too!

The third place went to 【Innocent College Student Online Awkward Chat】, with 21 points.

……

Finally, the one at the very bottom is [Pure Love God of War], with 0 points.

According to the event rules, the first stage will implement a bottom-ranked elimination system for the entire team.

Therefore, we regret to inform the six members of the "Pure Love Warrior" team that you have been eliminated and will no longer be able to participate in the upcoming team-up event!

Actually, the team with 0 points wasn't just [Pure Love God of War]. Both the goddess and the god had three successful auctions, with a total of ten items up for auction.

The two teams then divided up six items, and the remaining four items were divided among the four teams, one item per team.

So the remaining four teams actually all have 0 points.

The other three teams with 0 points are 【Zhengtai Team】, 【Zangai Family】, and 【Dashu Zhangle Xiaomila】.

However, since all three teams had members who triggered the rule cards, according to the event's hidden mechanism, the "Pure Love God of War" who gained nothing naturally ended up last.

Upon hearing Ye Linyu's elimination announcement, everyone was in an uproar, especially the eliminated "Pure Love Gods"!

"Damn it! Why wasn't this rule mentioned earlier?"

It's clear that none of the participants knew the last-place winner would be eliminated; otherwise, the auction competition would have been even fiercer.

"Taking advantage of others so gently? That's not like Instructor Chu's style."

Given Chu Kuangsheng's ruthless and stingy personality, how could he possibly make the event 'gentle' if he was involved in the planning?

Mingxi had a gut feeling that something was amiss.

Her intuition was absolutely correct.

After announcing the elimination of the "Pure Love God of War" team, the event host Ye Linyu's tone changed, and she immediately announced that the event would enter the second stage.

"Selling treasure!"

Yes, the roles have been reversed.
