n“50,000 high-grade spirit stones.” When the new bid was heard, everyone turned to face the owner of that voice. It wasn’t every day that you could see someone who is this young and has this much money.

nLi Huang too was interested as this was what he was selling and the profit would go straight to him minus the auction fee. Every item that is auctioned would have 1% of the final price deducted from it and that would belong to the auction, the rest would be given to the person who auctioned the item.

nWhen everyone turned to see this person, they were stunned by what they were seeing.

nThey were not stunned about the beauty of this person or such things, they were stunned by the people who were walking with the teenager.

nThe teenager had his face covered by a strange device that made it hard to see their face. Surrounding the teenager, were some of the most well-known formation masters of the divine central continent.

nThis in itself was surprising to see such people here before the main auction, but what was more surprising was how they were acting like the teenager’s guards. Looking at them, you could not find anything but respect for the teenager and that was when it all clicked into place.

nThere is only one person in the whole world that could have these high and mighty formation masters as a guard without even asking for it and that was the current formation grandmaster, Huili.

nLi Huang who knew the basic knowledge about this grandmaster Huili was surprised as he didn’t expect them to be a teenager and thought that they were exaggerating when they said that he

/she is just a child.

nThe other disciples and family members were too interested in grandmaster Huili. In the whole divine central continent, Huili is known as the number one genius and for years, no one is second as it would be an insult to Huili to put someone only one rank before them. In fact, there is no one in the top ten as no one’s achievement can compare to a teenager formation grandmaster.

nLi Huang couldn’t stop himself from testing the peeping eye of heaven on the number one genius of the divine central continent. Of course, he wasn’t stupid enough to test it with his eyes open and tried it with his eyes closed.

nThe instant he tried the peeping eye of heaven, he almost felt like he was going to lose his eyesight from the sheer amount of brightness he felt from that group of formation masters. Using his willpower he stopped his body from jolting and others didn’t sense anything from him when he opened his eyes the next instant.

n‘I shouldn’t have done that.’ Li Huang thought. He might not be stupid enough to try it with his eyes open but he was stupid enough to forget that these people are some of the top experts in the world and it would only be natural for the peeping eye of heaven to react violently to it.

nAs Li Huang was adjusting his eyes after that light spike, he missed how Huili turned to look at his face for a few seconds. Although Li Huang missed it, the formation masters who were right beside Huili didn’t miss it and decided to check later and see what has made their grandmaster react this way.

nThe auction continued and the auctioneer waited for someone to increase the price.

n“60,000 high-grade spirit stones.” Huizheng entered the competition once again. He didn’t think much of this item but he could use it to save a loved one. Usually, when someone wanted to hurt him, they went to harm his loved ones and that was the weak link in his life. If he had this item, most of this issue would be solved.

nHuili didn’t expect anyone to go against their bid and outbid them but it wasn’t something unmanageable.

n“100,000 high-grade spirit stones.” Huili increased the bid once more. The formation masters around her were staring daggers at Huizheng who dared to bet on the same thing as Huili.

nLi Huang who was looking at this scene could see some semblance between this situation and the auction situations that he had written in his notes. After thinking about it for a few seconds, he decided to let the matter go for now and don’t overreact when nothing has happened.

n“200,000 high-grade spirit stones.” Huizheng said without hesitation. He wouldn’t put a price on his loved ones’ lives so this much was nothing when it came to a life-saving treasure. He would not be willing to pay this much for a shining rock, but this is justified in his book.

n“300,000 high-grade spirit stones.” Huili said and everyone in the crowd was looking at Huili and Huizheng as this was the biggest item of the night.

nLi Huang and Hu Anjing were looking at each other with a smile in their eyes, as they would get half of the profit each.

n~”I think I can buy anything that I want in the auction with this amount of spirit stones!”~ Hu Anjing said in sound transmission and Li Huang couldn’t help but nod. He has regained a percentage of his spendings tonight back, so it was a good thing for him.

n~”Just tell me what you want in the auction, and I will give you the spirit stones. Keep this money for the future as we are going to need it.”~ Li Huang said with a serious tone.

n~”For what?”~ Hu Anjing didn’t get why would they need it so she asked Li Huang directly.

n~”Marriage is expensive.”~ Li Huang said with a straight face as he was looking at the ongoing back and forth of the bidding between Huili and Huizheng.

n“…” Hu Anjing was lost for words as she was yet to adjust to the fact that she was going to marry Li Huang.

nUnfortunately for her, Li Huang didn’t give her time to process everything as he continued.

n~”The wedding expenses would be paid by me of course, I meant the money for our travels on the honeymoon.”~ Li Huang continued to tease Hu Anjing and her face got a shade redder.

nAfter a few seconds, Hu Anjing calmed down enough to answer him.

n~”…I see.”~ She didn’t say much as she was afraid to show too many facial reactions and in results, someone from their group notices their ‘hidden conversation’.

n“440,000 high-grade spirit stones.” Huizheng said. He wanted these rings and from what he thought of it, it was worth it for even twice this price.

nHuili thought about this price a little. Of course, it wasn’t hard for them to pay this much as Huili would make this much in a week or so, but there was a reason to stop. From Huili’s inside information, there is going to be a mysterious formation in the main auction and the price for that would be so high that this much money could help them in winning it.

nThinking about it, Huili came to a conclusion. They were going to ask for this item for a short time and the other person could have it after that.

n“Would you be willing to let me study these rings until the last day of the auctions?” Huili turned and faced Huizheng and said. As a formation grandmaster who had a dozen formation masters with them, it wouldn’t take long to check the formations on the rings.

nHuizheng could see that this person was important enough that many elders were guarding them so he decided to use this chance to get something in return.

n“I can do that, but… what would I gain in return?” He said and you could see that the formation masters were hardly controlling themselves when Huizheng dared to ask for something in return.

nLi Huang on the other hand could not ignore this anymore as he could clearly see what was going on.

n‘He wants to get a favor in return!’ He screamed internally. He couldn’t let this happen as now he was thinking that maybe Huizheng is a heaven’s favorite.
