Don sat with his eyes closed in meditation after confirming that Minister Brian hadn"t arrived yet, without noticing the people in the public area around him. This auction looked similar to a beehive of people. If he didn"t want to personally see Minister Brian he wouldn"t have traveled or partic.i.p.ated in the auction. Don knew getting near Minister Brian without gaining some information about his guards would be far too difficult!"Honored guests of the Windsville city, you have waited long enough! The Thousand Arms Auction will begin now!"
The curtain slowly began to rise to see at the very center of the auction stage, a beautiful and flirtatious woman standing.
Don could see that at the center of the auction site, a woman was wearing a milky white dress standing there. She was gentle and beautiful, with skin like milk and a perfectly structured body. She had a playful look in the eyes that attracted the hearts of men.
Overall, she was incredibly beautiful. Moreover, what was the distinctive feature of the woman was two white fluffy bunny ears. She was a member of the demi-human race.
At the center of the auction stage, there was also a magic array disc floating in the air. It would project an image of the auction items so that everyone could able to see them.
"Look like some royal family members also came to partic.i.p.ate" Uncle Dior pointed to the VIP area to Don. They were all extremely well dressed and one could see the magical runes on the superior quality robes and these people were all seated at the uppermost, reserved seats.
While Don was searching for Minister Brian, he looked over a group of people sitting in the reserved section. The man sitting with a woman on his lap was a fat ugly man which remembered Don the statue in the market square, Minister Brian, finally Don found him as for the others stood behind him Don knew they were his guards.
The group had three women, one with black hair in a red dress, silver hair in green dress and a dark black hair with the bow in her hands and two look-alike men who wore a full chest plate and chainmail.
All around Don, the people were constantly talking and discussing all of the exciting events that were recently occurring in the empire as some of them pointing at their fingers in the direction of the auction stage and talking excitedly.
"That is the Everlasting sect"s core disciple Whitehoney Amara. I didn"t think she would be the auctioneer." From their conversation, Don guessed the Everlasting sect was some kind of big power in the empire, he met many disciples and sect"s while he was on the divine continent so he knew how dangerous and powerful they are so he didn"t want to mess with them at least not yet.
"She is so… wow, I heard that Whitehoney Amara"s talent is extremely high, not inferior to the three prodigies of Cold Moon Mansion. Countless suitors are chasing after her. With her auctioning, those rich young elites will crazily kick up the price in their burning desire to please her!"
Don now found the reason to see so many n.o.ble youths in this backwater city. "They would be so brainless if they pay too much for impressing some random beauty"
Don sat down, keeping his heart and mind calm and clear, planning how to deal with Brian"s guards. At this time, the first auction item was placed on the stage.
For every auction in the Divine continent, where Don came from, the best items would naturally be placed at the end. But, the very first item would be of high quality too, with value no lower than those that would come at the end. This was to rouse the good mood of the guests and to bring a grand opening to the event but here this didn"t seem to be the case.
Whitehoney Amara patted the box near her and gently smiled. She said in a clear and flirtatious voice,
"Thank you, distinguished guests, for your support. In this Thousand Arms WindsvilleCity Auction, there are over 30,000 guests present. This is the first auction item for this magnificent auction! What could it be? Not even I know!"
Just like her name, Whitehoney Amara"s voice was just as sweet as honey, making many youth"s hearts beat faster. She was skilled at stirring the mood of many young elites. Many people in the public area shouted, asking her to immediately open the box and start the auction.
"The first item up for auction is…" As Whitehoney Amara spoke, she slowly opened the box, revealing the finest looking blue magic crystal. Through the projection of a magic array disc, one could clearly make out every single inch and texture of the crystal.
And beside this magic crystal was a card. Whitehoney Amara picked up the card and looked over it. She looked at the card for a moment and said, "The first item for auction water spirit crystal! Hehe, so it was something like this! I know that many magis present will be competing in the Acheron kingdom"s annual magic compet.i.tion next year. A first-rate magic item could determine the victory if you lose because of an item your opponent used, then that would truly be regretful!
"This water spirit crystal can be used to nourish a spirit artifact"s artifact spirit! I think that there is no need for me to mention just how useful an artifact spirit is to a spirit artifact and what benefits a stronger artifact spirit would bring. With a superior item such as this, the battle is already half won! This water spirit crystal has a base price of 200 gold coins, and the minimum bid increase each time is 50gold coins. And now, it is time to begin the auction!"

Water spirit crystal!
Many of the young men present gulped. The first auction item was actually a spirit crystal! One couldn"t forget that this auction was aimed at the young men and women partic.i.p.ating at Acheron Kingdom"s annual magic compet.i.tion. A Magi using a spirit artifact? Just what kind of advantage was that! This sort of spirit artifact required a top grandmaster elder to expend a great deal of time and magic energy so that a young elite could be attuned to it. Besides the disciples or juniors of super influences or royal family, no other Magis could possibly be so prodigal.
From this alone, one could see just how luxurious and lofty this auction was! Some poorer young magis felt their hearts ache. They had obtained the lowest amount possible to hopefully join this auction, but they couldn"t even be able to afford a fifth of the starting bidding price.
"Kingdom of Acheron, Enjoy your peaceful days the day I set foot there the day you start to suffer" Don clenched his fists as a cold and murderous look emerged on his face.
In the meanwhile, Don didn"t care about the water spirit crystal as the item was not even remotely useful to him. He never wanted to lose something useful to him because he had no money to buy. It appeared many items in this auction would be aimed at young magis.
"300 gold coins!" In the VIP area, a youth called out, suddenly attracting the envy and admiration of many others. This proved that this youth had a spirit artifact as a weapon. His background could be imagined!
This youth didn"t even look at the crowd as if this wasn"t something worth mentioning. But in the next breath of time, another person raised the price.
"350"
"400!"
The young men started to raise the price higher and higher but Don didn"t care about it nor he had the money to buy. Eventually, the crystal was sold to a young man in the VIP area for 500 gold coins.
As auction goes by many moderate items were shown as well as cheap items too. Uncle Dior laughed very happily when he saw the great master realm beast"s magic core sold to a young man in the public area for 600 silver coins. Clearly, the young man plans to raise his level using the crystal to compete in the annual compet.i.tion of Acheron Kingdom.
Don noticed that Minister Brian has not yet bid for anything as he was just playing with a woman on his lap.
"Alright distinguished guests the time for the main event has arrived I don"t know if you are wondering about the final item but I"m sure is"
The auction staff brought a human-sized box to the stage, the box was covered by a red cloth.
"Let"s not waste a moment even I couldn"t hold curiosity," she said while slowly took off the cloth-covered the box revealing a woman in her ragged clothes, just like the previous items the people could see her through the projection of a magic array disc, Don glanced at the projection, he could see two slightly pointy ears, her face wasn"t very clear because it was covered in mud and dirt, she was chained as she lifelessly lied there in the box, clearly she was sedated before bringing her here.
Whitehoney Amara gasped when she saw the woman but she wasn"t disgusted or anything just as she picked the card and giggled seductively
"Honored guests the woman in front of you is a rare creature, it is a half-elf born to an elf and a mid grandmaster but it"s not the interesting part the thousand arms house appraisal master personally inspected it to find, it was indeed a peak master level magi with the potential to reach grandmaster realm"
The crowd was shocked when they heard Amara say she had the potential to reach grandmaster realm, everyone knew reaching grandmaster realm is not so easy as a magi needs an abundance amount of resources.
"It was made a slave in the war her kingdom fought, you all know that hardworking magis like you deserve a good time so what"s better than having a peak master realm creature as your slave who could do anything for you " Amara gave the crowd a seductive wink and smiled.
"This creature has a base price of 1000 gold coins, and the minimum bid increase each time is 100 gold coins don"t hold back your desires honored guests I"ve always liked men who took the initiative" the coy voice she made was enough to make the young men go crazy as they started to
kick up the price.
"1200 gold coins"
"1300!!"
"1500!!"
All the shouts came from the VIP area because no one in the public area could afford the fraction of the starting bid.
"2500" a voice called out while the crowd became silent and looked at the source of the voice with envy and jealousy, Don didn"t need to look because he knew who called out the price MINISTER BRIAN.
"2500 going once"
"2500 going twice"
"This is your last chance Honored guests"
"And sold to the gentleman on the Number 4 VIP area"
"b.a.s.t.a.r.d how many of my people need to die before someone punishes that fiend" Uncle Dior gritted his teeth and murmured, his voice had a tinge of sadness and hopelessness with anger.
"Don"t worry this his life ends today"
