Chapter 7: The Auction
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
There was no one else in Sky Fire City who had such funds other than the Wan Long Chamber of Commerce. Everyone in the auction house felt that it was Zhao Ling Er who had paid for Luo Chen’s bids.
“This…”
Zhao Ling Er looked at Luo Chen. She was so angry that her face turned red. Somehow, she felt wronged. At the same time, she was also very curious as to why Luo Chen was so generous with his money.
“The city governor’s son must be really embarrassed.”
“80,000 gold coins… that’s a lot of money.”
“The grade of the egg is still unknown. If it was guaranteed to be a divine pet, then it’s worth the price.”
“Hehe, if it’s really a divine pet, then 80,000 gold coins is really cheap.”
“Going once! Going twice! Sold!”
The auctioneer used all his enthusiasm for this bid.
Then, the audience began cheering. In total, Luo Chen had already spent 140,000 gold coins. It was a frightening amount.
The auction proceeded.
Since the next item was not a pet egg, Luo Chen was not interested. He glanced at the city governor’s son’s private room and chuckled.
“30,000 gold coins!”
Luo Chen placed his bid for the supposedly fourth pet egg.
“40,000 gold coins!”
The city governor’s son refused to back down.
“50,000 gold coins!”
Luo Chen continued to raise the price.
“70,000 gold coins! I don’t believe this son of a b*tch can continue to fork out this kind of money!”
The city governor’s son suddenly revealed a cold smile. He had a plan.
“I’ll keep bidding and raise the price. He will lose all his money in no time at all.”
However, things went awry for him.
Luo Chen pulled out from the bid.
“Sold for 70,000 gold coins! Congratulations!”
The auctioneer removed the black cloth and said awkwardly, “Undersea coral! You can admire its beauty!”
What happened was that they started bidding before the item was even revealed. Luo Chen noticed that the shape was a little different from a pet egg, so he was also executing his own scheme.
“What? Are you messing with me?”
The city governor’s son’s face turned pale.
“Did he really pay 70,000 gold coins for an ornamental item? That thing is worth 1,000 gold coins at most. Is he crazy?”
“Shh! Don’t let him hear you.”
“It looks like the city governor’s son has been tricked. How shameful!”
“Grr!”
The city governor’s son was furious.
“Young Master, are you alright?”
The following auction item was definitely a pet egg, so Luo Chen quickly made his move.
“30,000 gold coins!”
“Is he ever going to stop?”
“He’s deliberately showing off, isn’t he?”
“This kind of person should be thrown out. He is such an eyesore!”
“Do you think he’s the reincarnation of the god of wealth?”
The auction ended rather quickly because of Luo Chen’s shenanigans. No one could compete with him. Even the rich people stayed silent.
In the end, Luo Chen managed to obtain all five pet eggs.
Luo Chen looked at the five pet eggs lined up in front of him. He was in a dilemma. There was no way to tell which pet egg contained a divine pet. If he picked the wrong egg, he would lose one of his pet slots. As a summoner’s lifelong companion, no pets could be discarded, no matter how weak they were!
Suddenly, Luo Chen had an idea.
He could duplicate anything easily unless the item was really high-quality like Mei Er’s master’s staff.
Luo Chen took a deep breath and used his hand to stroke all of the pet eggs. If one of the eggs drained his ability, it meant that there was a divine pet within. Once his ability was exhausted, it would take three days to make a full recovery.
“It’s really a shame that I can’t duplicate souls. Otherwise, I would have two divine pets!”
Luo Chen finally decided on an egg and dripped his blood on it.
In an instant, a dazzling light burst out. The egg began cracking.
Of course, Luo Chen was very anxious. He had high expectations.
‘Crack…”
The eggshell was pecked open bit by bit. A cute little red bird emerged.
“Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!”
Luo Chen was overjoyed.
The summoning scripture’s third page was filled.
Beast Type: Vermillion bird (Divine pet)
Gender: Female
Attributes: Fire
Level: 0
Type: Beast
Habitat: Sky
Direction: Damage output
“This is great. So it’s a flying pet!”
Luo Chen was extremely happy.
Having the advantage in the skies was priceless.
Luo Chen carried the cute little bird in his arms. He was already attached to it.
“I’ll name you Xiao Mei since you’re so beautiful.”
“Chirp! Chirp! Chirp!”
…
Sky Fire Academy.
In Sky Fire City, there were three academies. They were Sky Fire Academy, Tian Yan Academy, and Sky Tear Academy. Luo Chen chose Sky Fire Academy since it was not too far away.
In front of the Sky Fire Academy was a sea of people. Parents were accompanying their children. On the other hand, Luo Chen was alone. He did not even allow the butler to accompany him because he was not used to having people around. The butler was aware of Luo Chen’s strength, so he was not that worried.
Luo Chen stood behind a long queue. He did not know the admission procedures, but following the basic rules was easy enough.
Luo Chen took out his summoning scripture in advance. There should be no problem for him to enroll in this academy.
He spotted a girl who was handing her summoning scripture to an examiner. She was clearly very nervous.
The examiner took her summoning scripture and flipped to the first page. It was filled with basic details. After that, he flipped to the next few pages and looked at the information of her summoned beasts.
“You barely pass for admission. Go in..”
