Chapter 714: Chapter 228: The Auction Begins [Triple update for Alliance Master ‘Tong Dahuhu’] Chapter 714: Chapter 228: The Auction Begins [Triple update for Alliance Master ‘Tong Dahuhu’] Amid the sound of gongs and drums, the first one to appear was indeed Leopard Elder.

In the blink of an eye, the crowd below erupted in boisterous cheers.

“Leopard Elder! Leopard Elder!”

Those outside hearing the people inside cheer joined in.

“Leopard Elder! Leopard Elder!”

Leopard Elder raised his hand in a polite gesture, a bitter smile on his face, “Without fear of being laughed at, I have spent 2300 years wandering the world, ever since I was in my leopard form until today. Only now have I truly been in the limelight, with so many people simultaneously chanting my name… Truly, my life has not been in vain.”

At these words, the hall exploded into laughter.

“Today, there are two important matters, I’ll keep it brief.”

Leopard Elder made a bow, “First, the auction. Master Ling, the Beast Taming Master, originally organised it without anyone else’s participation. However, the divine doctor happened to meet Master Ling and borrowed his venue to make an announcement, but he repeatedly emphasized not to overshadow the original event. The next part of the event will still be the auction of those three demon pets as planned, so please stay calm.”

Below, tens of thousands of people unanimously praised in chorus, “How magnanimous of the divine doctor!”

“He’s very structured in his work!”

“He truly lives up to his reputation as a divine doctor.”

At this point, anything the divine doctor said made complete sense to everyone!

“So, let’s formally enter the auction. To prevent everyone from getting impatient, I will serve as the auctioneer today. Please forgive any inadequacies in my role as it is just a temporary one. Also, we hope everyone gives face and not undercut the bidding prices too much. If this results in displeasing Master Ling, it would truly be difficult to conclude the auction successfully.”

The crowd immediately asked, “Why would Master Ling be upset?”

Leopard Elder politely explained, detailing the low prices of the previous deals, how they were manipulated, and went into meticulous details about the past events.

He emphasized the fact that during the previous wave of demonic beasts, Master Ling played a significant role in the background. If it weren’t for Master Ling staying in Yuezhou City and grooming the young Snake Kings, the Snake Emperor might not have been willing to negotiate…

In short, Leopard Elder detailed every single demonic pet that Master Ling raised, stating how many painstaking efforts he put into each creature, among other things…

Yet, he encountered malicious bidding or even secret manipulations… resulting in his superb demonic beasts not fetching their deserved prices… How could he not be disheartened?

After listening, the crowd was full of profanity.

“Who was so indecent!”

“It’s already a great honor for Beast Taming Master to hold the auction here, and yet they are still so shameless to do such disgusting things?”

“People like them can’t go far in their life.”

“What a pity for such good demon pets to be given to them!”

“Do you know how many famous Beast Taming Masters there are in the whole continent? It’s really strange that they don’t treasure this opportunity!”

“Yes, indeed.”

All the people were filled with righteous indignation, and they were willing to show off their heavy chests.

Because these veterans knew that other than the divine doctor, whom they could not offend, they would probably need him to save their lives someday.

If they offend him rashly, they may just be blocking their own way.

Similarly, a Beast Taming Master must not be offended.

Because a beast released by such a master could potentially save an entire family from ruin for a thousand years!

Why is Beast Taming Sect now among the top seven sects?

Tracing back to its roots, isn’t this the reason?

Some families, just by virtue of a chance encounter with a demon pet, have seen it grow stronger and stronger, and just by virtue of it alone, they have suppressed the other families in the city from acting recklessly!

Let’s take the most well-known example, Qing Ming, the Great Venerable!

The Green Wolf by Qing Ming’s side is just a demon beast, but it’s a super demon beast that has held up the fate of the entire Qin country!

Putting it crudely, even if Qing Ming were to pass away one day, as long as the Green Wolf is still there, other dominants who want to make a move against Qin country and face a peak demon beast who has lost its master, need to weigh their options carefully.

This is the terrifying power possessed by mature demon pets.

“I wonder what types of demon pets will be auctioned this time?”

Someone anxiously asked this question, which was of concern to everyone present.

The majority of the people present were severely injured in terms of their life source, and their lives were not expected to last long. They all worried about what would happen to their families after their death?

It’s inevitable that once the backbone of the family is gone, the family would be subjected to harassment and targeting from nearby people. Even being slaughtered and wiped out is conceivable.

If they ultimately can’t escape the fate of death, bringing back a demon pet with great potential for the family would be enough to keep the family going.

So long as the demon pet can grow, it might even further progress, and maybe even become a patron saint equivalent to them.

Of course, the premise is that these demon beasts must be of a high rank, have sufficient aptitude, and truly have a future.

If it’s the kind that can only be held in arms as pets… then forget it.

Hence, Master Ling’s ability can also be tested through these three demon beasts. Perhaps Master Ling is another divine doctor in a different sense and even if they are not exactly the same, they can still be considered similar, running side by side!

“The three Demon Beasts up for auction this time include an Eighth Rank Green Wolf cub, an Eighth Rank Fire Leopard cub, and a Seventh Rank Ferocious Beast cub!”

Upon hearing these three names, Wu Tiejun who was seated in front immediately became restless, it felt as though there was a nail under his butt.

Grand Marshal Wu had never dreamed that so many people would take part in this auction.

Would the resources he’d painstakingly gathered throughout Yuezhou be enough?

Even the treasury was nearly emptied out by him. If it still wasn’t enough and others ended up buying, would it turn into a disaster for Great Qin?

Wu Tiejun wasn’t worried about the involvement of people from the martial world because such martial families would find no use for the Ferocious Beast.

This is a unique weapon for imminent war. Bringing it into a family wouldn’t be of much significance, who would they intimidate with it?

Fights within the martial world are usually small-scale skirmishes and don’t even involve horse-riding…

As Wu Tiejun surmised, a majority of people were interested in the Green Wolf and Fire Leopard.

Only a few people were silently observing, muttering “Ferocious Beast” under their breath, while checking the resources they brought with them. Would they be enough? Could they compete for it?

This is Yuezhou City of Qin country. They are local snakeheads, and just the invincible reputation of Grand Marshal Wu is terrifying enough.

“Let’s welcome the Eighth-grade Green Wolf cub onto the stage. Please put on the bloodline ring.”

Everyone quieted down. The bloodline ring test is a necessary process for auctioning spirit and demon beasts. This thing can’t be forged and is universally recognized on the continent.

If the test detected that this Green Wolf had Emperor Rank potential, could its future path not allow it to grow to the level of a great Green Wolf?

If so, even if it is a few ranks lower, it would be acceptable!

If it is really of Great Wolf level, we as small families might be unable to afford it!

Everyone shared this thought and couldn’t help but feel a burning sensation in their hearts. They were all focused on the wolf.

Under everyone’s gaze, a small wolf was brought out and placed on the high stage.

Looking at the dense crowd below, the wolf’s bright eyes did not show fear, only curiosity.

Its slack tail swayed gently, strolling leisurely back and forth on the stage like a king inspecting his territory.

Though it’s still in its infancy, it already possesses impressive temperament!

With this one matter, the attention of countless people has been grabbed!

Everyone’s eyes lit up instantly.

This Green Wolf looks so majestic! Its potential for the future is bound to be unparalleled.

Besides, this is a creature brought out by Beast Taming Master Ling for his comeback. He wouldn’t let the wolf be subpar for the sake of his own reputation, right?

The bloodline ring was quickly brought up, and Leopard Elder personally activated it.

The wolf shivered, and suddenly howled towards the sky on the high stage: “Awoo~~~”

In this moment, the dominance of the Green Wolf howling at the moon emerged, and a sense of royalty radiated from it.

There were many experts below, and their spirit senses were incredibly sharp. They felt all the more strongly its extraordinary characteristics, which naturally prompted them to act even more.

Moves were born from thoughts, everyone’s eyes gleaming brightly.

A fat man stood up: “I don’t think we need to do the bloodline ring test anymore. I like this Green Wolf. I won’t ask for the starting price, I’ll just triple it!”

This was obviously someone trying to get a bargain but trying to act generous. This instantly drew tens of thousands of people’s curses: “Shameless!”

“What do you mean by ‘you want it’? I want it too! I’ll give five times the starting price, I don’t need a bloodline test either!”

“I’ll add ten times!”

“I’ll add a hundred times!”

Someone below shouted out loud.

For a moment, everyone was looking at each other.

Above, the Leopard Elder raised his hammer high, pointing at the guy who shouted a hundred times: “You! Just you! This person bid a hundred times the starting price, is there anyone else who wants to raise? The starting price is fifty million silver taels! Substitutes by market price with various materials for the insufficient part in cash…”

“Five billion for a hundred times the price, anyone else raising the price? Three! Two! One! Sold!”

Then, laughter erupted below. Everyone was gloating and overjoyed.

There really is such a fool in this world.

A hundred times…hilarious!

The man’s face turned green. He raised his hands in surrender: “Leopard Elder, Leopard Elder…spare me… even if you sell all my bones, I can’t get fifty billion… I was just lively up the atmosphere…please let me go.”

The Leopard Elder was just joking anyway, how could he really settle the deal with a hammer? He was amiable and held his hammer high: “You fatso, popping out for no reason to make trouble. If I don’t sell to you, others will think you’re my plant. My Universe Building has stood tall for a long time. How can I stake the reputation I’ve accumulated for many years on you… ”

Everyone was laughing madly.

“If auctions found such a plant, what kind of auction house wouldn’t have gone bankrupt long ago…”
