Chapter 178 Auction
Mao Jiamin was woken up by the conversation outside. She looked at the time and was about five o'clock in the morning. She stretched and prepared to go out for a look.
When he arrived outside the door, he saw Qingyao, Wang Yue, Chen Guang and Zhang Qihong all got up, and asked in surprise: "Where are you doing this? Don't let someone have a good sleep early in the morning."
Qingyao gave him a blank look and answered, "Did you forget? I said last night that I would go to redeem points today." Qingyao saw Mao Jiamin's appearance that she was not awake, and smiled and continued:
"Besides, the auction requires participants to be present at 8 o'clock. Time is tight, so there is no time to sleep."
Mao Jiamin touched his nose and hurried back to his house, leaving a sentence: "Wait until I go back and wash."
Five people were walking on the street. Everyone was sleeping during this period of time, but today the street seemed a little congested. It seemed that the annual auction was really famous.
Wang Yue was carrying a bag of points cards, afraid of becoming the target of others, so she was fighting trembling along the way.
When they arrived at the gate of the trading building, they were not only going to exchange points now, but people from the two major forces had already started queuing up early in the morning. Looking at the incredible team in front of them, Mao Jiamin was covered in black lines.
If I had known that I should have returned to bed and continued to sleep, I would have to wait until the end of this. Mao Jiamin kept complaining in his heart, but he still followed Qingyao honestly.
Time passed quickly. The five people who came here from 5:30 in the morning had been waiting for two hours. Finally, they arrived. Mao Jiamin looked at the time and it was already 7:30. He hurriedly urged the staff to say that if they had not entered the venue until 8:00, they would be disqualified from the auction.
Wang Yue placed a big bag in front of the staff. Although there were many points cards, it took only two minutes to successfully redeem all the points into one card. Even Mao Jiamin couldn't help but like this efficiency.
"It's seven forty now, we have to hurry up." Wang Yue frowned and looked at the people behind him who were still queuing up tirelessly. After collecting the cards, he left the counter.
We ran all the way through many streets. When Mao Jiamin and the other two arrived at the door of the auction, it was already 7:55. If we were a little late, we would have to say goodbye to this year's auction.
"The inner courtyard is really big enough." I originally thought that the various places and facilities of the outer courtyard were very generous, but now after seeing the auction location of the inner courtyard, the outer courtyard was nothing.
The auction hall did not build a gate, but there was a very conspicuous plaque on top of the two pillars, and the three large characters "Auction Hall" were engraved on it.
After passing through the pillar and coming to the interior, a very spacious stone road is right under your feet. At this moment, people are coming and going, and almost all the students in the inner courtyard will participate in this annual auction.
After walking a short distance, everyone saw a huge ancient city. It is not an exaggeration to say it is a castle. The construction style is very retro, and there is another biggest feature, that is, the area is very large and enough to accommodate students from the entire supernatural academy to participate.
After entering the castle with the crowd, the scenery inside was also eye-catching. The whole body was covered with ink-style wallpaper, and there were countless stands. The middle part surrounded by the stands is the area where the items were displayed this time.
Mao Jiamin and the other two came to the stands in the north and sat down in the middle. During this period, they had already met many members of Xiaoyao Valley. After seeing Mao Jiamin and Qingyao, they all came to the north and sat behind them.
Next, I was quietly waiting for the start of the auction. At this time, the venue was almost full. Mao Jiamin glanced around and saw that all the members of the Rock Gang and the No God Association sat separately. This also made Mao Jiamin a little ashamed, and at the same time, he was a little impressed that the members of his subordinates were so organized and disciplined, which was something that their Xiaoyao Valley continued to lack now.
After waiting for nearly half an hour, just when Mao Jiamin was about to fall asleep, a war drum sounded in the venue, and the countdown began to be displayed on the big screen.
From ten to one, the atmosphere on the scene became increasingly high.
In the center of the stands, a lady came first. The woman wore a red cheongsam and looked very charming. With her extremely beautiful appearance, many male students had secretly included her in the ranks of goddesses.
Clearing his throat, the scene became quiet, and the lady said, "Dear geniuses from the inner courtyard, welcome to the annual auction site. My name is Yalan, and I am the host of this auction."
There were bursts of applause in the audience. From the old students, Mao Jiamin learned that the hosts of each previous auction were the elders of the inner courtyard. This year, they actually changed into beautiful women, which undoubtedly made this auction more interesting.
"All items at this auction are directly provided by the Supernatural Academy. The next free auction will be at 8 o'clock tomorrow morning." Next, we will explain a lot of historical origins, or the origin of the Supernatural Academy.
"Okay, let's not say much, let's start today's theme. The first thing to be auctioned is..." Yalan said with a pair of white gloves in her hands and holding a crystal core in her hands:
"The first auction item today is a crystal core called Demon's Son, which is directly picked up by the hospital, so please rest assured."
The Demon Son's crystal core? Why do you sell this kind of thing? Mao Jiamin looked puzzled, but he did not ask a question, but was quietly waiting for the price. Originally, Mao Jiamin was still worried about the free trade fair for a while, and the price of the Demon Hunter Crystal Core in his hand was sold, and now he can refer to it.
After all, the two A-level mutations of Demon Son and Demon Hunter are among the best ones.
"The starting price is 5,000 points!" Yalan said casually, but she didn't expect that there were many people holding up signs on the spot. Some people didn't want to be majestic in front of Yalan, so that they could get close to her.
"The highest price is the student Guo over there, and the bid is 5,500." Yalan took out the hammer, knocked it and said, "5,500 points once! 5,500 points twice, 5,500 points three times, and 5,500 points are three times, and the deal is completed! Congratulations."
Chapter completed!
