Chapter 1194: Unbelievable Moment

“Look! its South Town Lu Family’s Young Master! Lu Changwei! He’s here…”


“Wasn’t he supposed to attend the Temple’s exam? Why is he here?”


“Yeah I also heard that he was going to take the Temple’s exam! As the strongest person in our young generation of the Silver Plume Planet, surely he would be selected to join the Temple!”


“Whatever they are selling today really must be something really remarkable or Lu Changwei wouldn’t have come!”


“Duh! All the powerful people are gathered here at outer city. This is unprecedented!”


The prattling grew restless. All those that were present were waiting with bated breath to see the giants fight at the auction!


Ding!


[Cultivation: Early Phase of Ethereal Cultivation; Lifespan: 344 years; Health: 180,000; Combat power: 180,000]


Chen Xiaobei turned around to look at the man who resembled Lu Yiju.


This apparently strongest person in the Silver Plume Planet’s younger generation was Lu Chengwei, an Ethereal cultivated elite!


Wenren Muyue also had the same cultivation!


Due to Wenren Muyue’s terrible illness, she could not battle. Unable to display her skils was why only few knew about her cultivation. That was why everyone thought that Lu Changwei was the strongest.


This reveled something of great importance.


Reaching Ethereal Cultivation would mean being selected by the Temple trouble-free, and becoming the Temple’s warrior that so many outsiders yearn to be.


“Wow! Young Master Lu is just as good looking!”


The beautiful woman finally tore her gaze away from Miao Yiyue and immediately s.h.i.+fted her attention to Lu Changwei.


Although they were both top-tier n.o.bles, Lu Changwei was a lot stronger!


Clearly, this woman did not just want to be under the patronage of people of power and influence. She was also known to be ungrateful.


It would seem that when a more eminent person enters the scene, that’s when her attention will s.h.i.+ft again.


And so it did!


The next second, amidst the crowd’s heightened cheers, her gaze was now locked on another person. She was practically drooling at him!


“Look! Look! That person next to Lu Changwei! Is that… Isn’t that the governor’s son Dong Xiaowu? My G.o.d… Why did he come here?”


“This Silver Plume’s most powerful young master is even more important than all of the other four combined!”


“I’ve never heard of him leaving the inner city, ever!”


“That’s insane! He is here now! Today’s auction must be one heck of a show!”


The crowd were all busy making guesses and antic.i.p.ating the biggest reveal of tonight’s auction!


“Huh? What’s the matter? Old man Gu didn’t mention anything about a special program… What brings the governor’s son Dong Xiaowu here?”


Chen Xiaobei looked inquisitively at Dong Xiaowu.


He was obese like his father, but not as majestic, just mediocre, much alike the phrase they used back on earth – Chubby Tubby!


Xiaowu!


That name meant that the person was supposed to be good at combat and had made a name for the family.


Dong Zhuo had aspired for his son to become a famous general.


Sadly, silver-spooned children cannot escape the fate of turning into weak, rich brats.


Ding!


[Cultivation: Celestial Cultivation; Lifespan: 250 years; Health: 100,000; Combat power: 100,000]


Chen Xiaobei took this opportunity to look at Dong Xiaowu’s strength.


That fatso really was quite useless.


He had an abundance of resources laid at his feet for him, yet he was so weak. He was either an indolent sloth or an imbecile. There was no cure for either.


“Dong Xiaowu is so handsome!” The beautiful woman cooed like a devoted fanatic when she saw Chubby Dong.


Chen Xiaobei had chosen to ignore her and he could not help but feel disgusted by her.


On earth, women like her were called gold-digging Green Tea b.i.t.c.hes.


All Chubby Dong needed to do was wiggle his finger at her and she would immediately abandon her current boyfriend and lie stark before the fatty, allowing him to do as he pleased.


The seating arrangement of the top-tier n.o.bles’s row was quite interesting.


South Town’s Lu Changwei together with West Town’s Miao Yiyue were both outsiders. Their ancestors had greatly contributed to the Temple and diligently paved their way to acheive the status of half-n.o.bles.


Chubby Dong, North Town’s Wei Family, East Town’s Qin Family, were all Silver-Plume-born n.o.bles.


Chubby Dong sat right in the center with Lu Changwei on his immediate left and Miao Yiyue on his immediate right.


The two Silver Plume n.o.bles from Wei Family and Qin Family were each seated to the next left and right side of Chubby Dong.


According to this arrangement, it would then seem that the two outsider’s family were ranked lower than the governor’s family but were of higher social standing that the Qin and Wei Family! Such an occurance really was quite intriguing!


Once they had all settled in on their respective seats, the auction was set in motion.


“Young Master Dong, the auction will begin soon! Do you want to invite Master Tao to sit with you?”


Lu Changwei whispered.


“Master Tao? You invited Master Tao?” Chubby Dong asked in astonishment. “Hurry and invite that old man over! How could you have let Master Tao sit at the back?”


“Well I was afraid that you didn’t want to see Master Tao. I’ll go get him now!”


Lu Changwei got off his seat and turned around to where Chen Xiaobei was sitting.


It was however, obviously not Chen Xiaobei that he was approaching.


The old man with snow-white beard and hair stood up and nodded at Lu Changwei. He was Master Tao!


“Master Tao, Young Master Dong invites you to sit with him!”


Lu Changwei proceeded to walk the old man to the first row.


Someone immediately brought a chair, placing it in between Chubby Dong and Lu Chang Wei.


Once the old man sat down, Chubby Dong would not stop talking to Master Tao. Throughout the conversation, he looked at the old man with admiration and awe, like a fan talking to his beloved idol.


“Who is that old man? Why does he seem so close to the Young Master Dong?” The beautiful woman asked.


Chen Xiaobei perked his ears up. He was also very curious about this matter.


“Only a master of Chinese brush paintings could receive such a warm welcome!” Her boyfriend replied.


“Tao… Tao Qianli?” The woman’s eyes widened into large ‘O’s’. “So that is the Chinese brush painting master whose paintings could sell for thousands of medium-grade Spiritual Stones?! Oh my G.o.d…”


“Yup, that would be him! His paintings are rich with Chinese flavor, and they are excellent portrayals of legendary generals. His works are highly sought after by the circle of n.o.bles of the Northern Wilderness Starfield! Actually, the value of one of his painting is worth a lot more than what you previously mentioned. That was the price a few years back. Today, his paintings are a rare find!”


“Wow!”


Chen Xiaobei’s eyebrows raised inadvertently at that statement.


A few thousand medium-grade Spiritual Stones were equal to tens of thousands of low-grade Spiritual Stones. Was that not even enough buy just one of his paintings?!


That was mind blowing!
