I hope the four auctioned pet resources can fetch a high price and make up for my losses.1
Reluctantly glancing at the surrounding pet resources, David Jones returned to his private room on the third floor.
He had no choice, as his account had been completely drained of star coins. Even if he found desirable resources later, he wouldnt be able to afford them, which would only add to his troubles. Its better to be out of sight, out of mind.
Isnt she back yet?
Looking at the empty luxurious private room, David Jones chose to close his eyes and cultivate through Calm Mind meditation.
There was still an hour before the main event of the auction began. The remaining time was perfect for cultivation.
Time slowly passed, and the door to the private room was gently opened at some point.
Buzz, buzz, buzz. Davids alarm clock went off.
The silent auction phase must be ending!
David Jones stopped his cultivation, turned off the alarm on his phone, and slowly opened his eyes. The first thing he saw was a pair of beautiful, bright eyes.
Margaret Yule said with a smile: No wonder your Arcane Star Cultivation is so strong. You never let any spare time go to waste, even while attending an auction.
Wen Yan, David Jones couldnt help but smile helplessly. That was the smile of poverty.
This opportunity was rare, and if it werent for his empty pockets, he would probably still be searching for suitable pet resources on the second floor, instead of cultivating in the private room now.
Im going to the restroom. David Jones said as he got up.
He couldnt help but be concerned about the mysterious Fire Rock.
Watching David Jones hurriedly leave, Margaret Yule was slightly puzzled.
The luxurious private room was so well equipped, there was even an entertainment hall and bedroom, let alone a private restroom. His excuse was a bit lame.
A moment later, David Jones returned to the private room. His face showed no sign of excitement, but his heart was pounding.
Thats right, after watching the staff take away the box containing the bid list, David Jones was sure that his bid was the highest.
As David Jones and Margaret Yule chatted and waited, there was a soft knock
on the door of the private room.
It was still the familiar Mr. Carter, followed by two staff members pushing a small cart filled with delicate jade boxes.
At this point, Benjamin Carter said respectfully, Mr. Jones, Ms. Yule, these are the pet resources youve won in the silent auction.
Your consigned pet resources have been auctioned off as well. Heres the detailed information.
Taking the price list handed over by Benjamin Carter, David Jones eyes lit up. The total price of the pet resources he had participated in the auction for, except for Fire Essence Crystal and Refine Crystal, was 110,700,000 star coins. As for the consigned items: the Luminous Stone, Arcane Force Core, and Sharp Gold Stone were auctioned for 6,600,000, 8,500,000, and 9,700,000 star coins, respectively. These prices were within his expectations.
However, what surprised David Jones the most was the Kengou Inheritance Arcane Stone, which he didnt care much about before but sold for the highest price of 15,000,000 star coins.
So, after deducting the 10% consignment fee, the four items alone earned him 27,000,000 star coins. freeweb(n)ovel
After confirming that the pet resources were genuine, David Jones directly paid 90,000,000 star coins and collected all the items into his Star Ring.
Thankfully, there are still over 30,000,000 star coins left in my account. I have enough funds to complete Daphnes evolution.
Looking at the balance displayed on his phone, David Jones smiled in satisfaction and turned to Margaret Yule, who was busy checking her auction items.
As expected of a rich girl from Waterland City, Margaret Yules auctioned pet resources almost filled the staffs cart.
Keep in mind that the items eligible for the silent auction were all level IV pet resources. If these numerous items arent worth five or six hundred million star coins, David Jones wouldnt believe it.
Thats fine.
Margaret Yule waved her hand, signaling the staff in the private room to leave. She then smiled at David Jones and said, The upcoming auction is the main event. Each item is a treasure.
By the way, do you have enough star coins? If you encounter items you like later and dont have enough star coins, I can help you buy them. To show our friendship, I wont charge you any interest.
David Jones, the most famous beast taming genius in Waterland City, had rejected all the citys beast control power invitations. She knew about this shocking news!
In Margaret Yules opinion, David Jones choice was not wrong, because Waterland City was too small after all.
To be blunt, compared to a real pet control family, the beast control power of Waterland City is nothing but small fish and shrimps. There are only a few who can be called a Strong One among the trainers at the King level.
With David Jones extraordinary talent, as long as he doesnt fall halfway, he will easily reach a high position when he graduates from Rosewood College, whether he joins the military or the Trainer Guild.
However, this choice also has a drawback: David Jones can access too few resources in the early stages.
If it were another trainer with lesser talent, they could easily blend into the crowd due to a lack of cultivation resources.
David Jones joked, Arent you afraid I wont be able to pay you back if you lend me that much money?
At his words, Margaret Yule looked David Jones in the eyes seriously, If you dont have money by then, you can compensate with your body. After all, youll definitely be able to pay it back.
David Jones: Compensate with my body??
Dont get it wrong. With your reputation as the first place winner in the Sunbeam Province Trainer Competition, you wont lack resources as long as you want to join a powerful organization. You should understand what I mean. Margaret Yule rolled her eyes at David Jones.
If it werent for the Yule familys insufficient qualifications, and an inability to offer a sufficiently attractive price, she would actually like David Jones to join her family.
The second round of the auction is about to begin. David Jones quickly changed the subject.
Unlike the first round of the silent auction, this round also uses the highest bidders method but displays the prices openly. It even allows bidders to use high-grade pet resources to participate in the auction.
However, such auctions are generally dominated by star coins, and it is rare to see exchanges made with high-level pet resources unless the seller has specific requirements.
At this moment, the first auction item sparked a fervent atmosphere in the auction hall.
It was a Commander-level young beast, the Cold Spider. bender
As an ice and bug type of pet, the only defect of the Cold Spider is its extremely slow speed. However, its Species Skill, the Ice-web Zone, is incredibly powerful.
As a special Zone Strengthening skill, if used properly, the Cold Spider can defeat more powerful beasts of different levels and even fight multiple opponents at once.
However, David Jones lost interest in the Cold Spider after using his Penetrating Eye to evaluate its potential..
