Stunningly beautiful young lady
Chapter 98 The competition is too fierce
As soon as Mei'er finished speaking, four people carried an iron cage and placed it steadily on the stage.
"Everyone knows that spirit beasts are difficult to contract. Our spirit beasts have already been tamed by beast tamers in advance, so buyers can directly form a contract."
After Mei'er finished speaking, someone next to her ripped off the black cloth, revealing the true appearance of the creature inside the cage.
They were surprised to see the spirit beast in the cage, but when they heard the words "beast tamer," the crowd erupted in excitement.
"Beast tamers? Beast tamers have actually come to our continent!"
The people below were shouting excitedly. Beast tamers were a profession even rarer than alchemists. They had only heard of them but had never seen one.
Not only were the people in the lobby excited, but the people in the private rooms on the first, second, and third floors were also restless.
"Yes, this was tamed by Elder Qiu and his disciples from the Spirit Warrior Academy."
Seeing the crowd's excitement, Uncle Yun came out from backstage and appeared in the center of the auction stage.
"When did the Beast Tamer profession appear in the Spirit Warrior Academy? We've never heard of it before."
Everyone was still puzzled, after all, this was something that would cost money, and they couldn't feel at ease without asking clearly.
"Crench!"
Seeing that some people still had questions, the door to the private room on the third floor was opened from the inside.
A man dressed in light blue clothing, with his hair simply tied up with a crown, appeared in everyone's sight.
He looked at the crowd below and explained.
"The newly created profession of Beast Tamer was brought back by Master Uncle Ruan Jitian, who had already gone to the previous continent. Due to injuries sustained during his training, his strength regressed to the Spirit King level. He has now returned to our Spirit Warrior Academy from the previous continent."
"If everyone can enter my Spirit Warrior Academy, they should be able to learn beast taming techniques from our eldest master."
"Wow, they're actually from the Spirit Warrior Academy! The competition is still over twenty days away, could it be that they came here specifically to attend this auction?"
Everyone recognized the people on the third floor at a glance, seeing that they were wearing hospital uniforms with special markings.
The academy also has a great shortage of spirit beasts, so the reason they brought this spirit beast here is obviously to promote it.
Before the competition began, their respective teams spread the news to various continents, letting more people know about the situation.
"Hello, I am Chen Feng, the eldest disciple of the Spirit Warrior Academy."
He smiled and introduced himself to the crowd below, clasping his hands in a slight bow.
“This gentleman is right. We came here specifically to attend this auction and also to gain some experience in the Azure Forest.”
As the senior disciple of the Spiritualist Academy and the leader of this event, he came to answer everyone's questions.
Looking at this handsome young man with extraordinary temperament and elegant demeanor, everyone felt even more longing for the Spirit Warrior Academy.
"This rhinoceros is almost an adult. Has it really been tamed? Will it attack us?"
Although he respected and trusted the people of the Spirit Academy, he still felt uneasy looking at the enormous spirit beast before him.
Not only him, but many others are also eagerly gazing at the person on the third floor.
"Uncle Yun, I'll have to trouble you."
He looked at Uncle Yun below the stage, and Uncle Yun nodded slightly. Then he reached out his hand towards the cage where the spirit beast was kept.
"Everyone, please take a look."
Uncle Yun simply reached his hand into the iron cage!
Everyone stared wide-eyed at Uncle Yun's actions, their hearts pounding in their throats.
Then Uncle Yun placed his hand on the rhinoceros's head and gently stroked it. Surprisingly, the rhinoceros did not become agitated and obediently allowed others to stroke its horns.
Normally, if someone accidentally bumped into a rhinoceros horn, they'd be chased for miles by that creature.
"Wow, it actually obeys so well."
Seeing the spirit beast in the cage not struggling at all, everyone exclaimed in surprise again.
You should know that you can't just form a contract with a spirit beast. If you don't have some strength, it won't submit to you and you generally won't be able to form a contract with it.
In situations like those in cages, one can almost always form a contract after cultivating to two or three stars.
"Alright, all questions have been answered. Now let's officially begin our auction."
Yunbo withdrew his hand from the cage and looked at the crowd that had been waiting for him.
"Lingxi, a mid-level intermediate-grade spirit beast, starting bid: five thousand silver coins!"
As soon as Mei'er finished speaking with a touch of allure, her slender fingers grasped the drumstick and struck it on the drum beside her, officially starting the auction.
"Ten thousand silver coins!"
A scholar-looking man was the first to raise his hand and bid.
People around him all looked at him, never expecting that the usually stingy, masked scholar was actually so rich.
"Thirteen thousand silver coins."
Despite the high price, there were still quite a few people competing in the hall.
This is equivalent to the strength of a three-star human spirit general, so the competition is naturally extremely fierce.
If each family signs a contract for their descendant, the spirit beast's spiritual power will gradually improve along with the master's as the master's strength increases.
……
Before long, the bidding reached a price of 70,000 silver coins.
Among them, the families in each private room also made bids. Although some of them could defeat the spirit beasts, they might not necessarily form a contract with them.
Many spirit beasts choose to commit suicide when they realize they can't win, which is why there are so few people with spirit beasts in a family.
"Eighty thousand silver coins."
The Third Prince, Si Fuxuan, was also bidding on the third floor. Among his brothers, he was the only one without a spirit beast, which put him at a disadvantage since his strength was already somewhat lower.
However, if he were to acquire this spirit beast and make it his contracted beast, he wouldn't fall too far behind them.
Therefore, he was determined to get this rhinoceros!
"Eighty-five thousand."
Princess Si Fupei from the next private room also wanted to bid for the spirit beast, even though her strength was the lowest among her sisters.
"Third brother, please don't fight with your sixth sister for it. I really want this spirit beast."
Knowing that she couldn't compete with her third brother's wealth, she resorted to emotional appeal.
"One hundred thousand silver coins."
At this moment, another private room on the third floor raised its price again, increasing it by 15,000 silver coins.
"Sixth Sister, this isn't just me bidding. The highest bidder wins. Look, the Sun family has already raised their bid to 100,000."
After the Third Prince finished speaking to Si Fupei, he immediately raised the price to 110,000.
After all, he had nothing else, but he had saved a little money. He lacked the ability, so he made up for it with other things.
"Humph!"
Seeing that her words hadn't reached her third brother's ears at all, the sixth princess snorted angrily and then sat back down on the bench to sulk.
“Little sister, we don’t have as much money as they do. If your fifth brother sees a spirit beast in the future, he will definitely catch one for you to contract.”
"We should save this money to bid on other projects we're interested in, so we still have a chance of winning."
The Fifth Prince, Si Fuhao, comforted his sister, reminding her that today's visit was not solely for the sake of the spirit beast.
"Our guest in box number three has already bid one gold coin for 150,000 silver coins. Are there any other bidders?"
This was the first time Mei'er had ever seen an auction item fetch such a high price; it seemed that this spirit beast was indeed popular.
"Dad, I don't want it anymore. We can just catch one ourselves. It's not worth such a high price."
Although the Sun family had a lot of money, they didn't waste it carelessly or spend it on things they shouldn't.
Spirit beasts are a matter of fate, and besides, he didn't particularly like this spirit rhinoceros, so he wouldn't participate in the competition.
Upon hearing such a high price, the General's Mansion, the Su family, and the Zhao family, the other three major families, also backed down, leaving the other families with nothing to do but watch.
"One gold coin for ten thousand silver coins, for the first time!"
"One gold coin for 100,000 silver coins, for the second time!"
"One gold coin for ten thousand silver coins, for the third time!"
Mei'er raised her stick and struck the negative spot, officially ending the bidding for the first item.
"Congratulations to our guest in VIP room number three. We will now move Lingxi backstage. You are welcome to contract your spirit beast at any time."
The third prince did not go immediately, but stayed behind, because he also had his eye on the next two auction items...
