Chapter 82 - 82: 2nd Layer Of The Apprentice Wizard Kingdom
There were no more bids. Monkey Clan wine was liked by many, but those in attendance came for the Pills that could help cultivation.
"No one else?" Son Safin counted to three and seeing no one but bid she said, "Sold, to the beautiful white-haired girl!"
When many of the Demi-Humans who looked in Yuki's direction and saw her and Little Yui, they were fascinated. But figuring the girl on her lap was her daughter, they were sad that the beauty of her level was already with someone. Seeing a handsome golden-haired young man by their side, they figured he was the father. Because of that, they couldn't help looking at Theo with envy.
Soon Son Safin began auctioning another bottle of Monkey wine. It ended up being bought by Shina this time for 110 Points.
With a shy smile on his face, she was still happy to be able to get it.
After that, the other bottles were not bid on by Shina and Yuki. They were bought by some natives of the Village. Jka bought one too, and one Demi-Human had bought another.
After that, she started the bidding for level 2 pills. But Theo had no interest in any of them, nor were the girls in her group interested in those pills.
He had wanted to know the name of the pills before, but now that he would get the notebook with Son Safin's notes on Pills, he no longer cared about the things being sold at the Auction. Also, none of them would be of any help to them.
Soon after, other Monkeys came carrying 5 bottles, and each of those bottles had a blue pill in them.
"These are Pills; <Rising Water> Level 3. Cultivating Brothers, Ladies and Gentlemen, I'm sure you are all well aware of the properties of this Pill, but for those who may not know, this Pill helps cleanse 10% of your body's impurities! Despite being a single-use pill per person. I believe you all know how good the effects are to have 10% of your body's impurity cleaned, right?" She smiled and said, "So without further ado, the starting price of this Pill is 500 Points."
"550!" Jka's Father bid.
"600!" A large Black Wolf, his voice full of an authoritative tone that matched his stout body, bid.
"700!" A Demi-Human said.
"750!" Jka's father, Lekei said.
"800!"
"850!" Said the Black Wolf once more.
Theo looked at him and realized he was also trapped in the 10th Layer of the Student Kingdom. In fact, they had about 10 auction attendees that were stuck in the bottleneck of their cultivation, so they really wanted to get this Pill. Even if they were expensive, they were willing to pay. For that was the cost of breaking through the bottleneck and advancing in cultivation.
The price skyrocketed until Jka's father, Lekei, offered "1,500!"
It turned out that nobody else bid after him and Lekei was able to buy the Pill. His face was radiant. For now, he had regained hope of breaking through his bottleneck.
The Auction continued to sell the other pills, and it turned out that the other Clans were also able to buy one pill each. One ended up being purchased by a young Demi-Human Cat Girl.
Just as the Auction was about to close, a 2-meter-tall hooded man dressed in black appeared on stage.
"Who are you? What do you think you're doing?" Son Safin asked.
Without bothering to answer, he began to laugh in a sinister voice and said, "Kekeke! I'm quite fortunate today! And to think that Son Safin would be in this Village and so many Demi-Human women would be here!"
Shortly after he spoke, he manifested a potent aura of an Apprentice Wizard Kingdom 2nd Layer cultivator.
Everyone was scared and terrified when they felt intense pressure towards them from this hooded man. Son Safin was the one who felt the most weight, she ended up on her knees on the floor. Looking at this hooded man with fear and anger at the same time.
Seeing that some were still in a position to get up and were wanting to run away, the hooded man laughed mischievously: "Kekeke! You have no way to escape! I set up formation around this entire hall!"
"Argh! Who are you, and what do you intend to do?" Asked a gorgeous young brunette with black hair. She was the Daughter of the Lion Clan Patriarch; Pine lion.
The hooded man looked at Pine Lion, and the eyes of that man who could be seen through the hood were full of lust and desire. He looked at Pine's beautiful dark body and in an even more sinister voice than before, he said, "I just want to take with me all the women here!" He smiled ominously he continued: "Don't worry! I will make you all know heaven and hell at the same time! Muahaha!" He put a hand on his head and began to laugh wildly.
"Whoosh!"
"BANG!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhh!"
By the time the hooded man was laughing wildly, Theo had already taken the opportunity that he was off guard and used his movement technique. He appeared in front of this man and punched him immediately in the center of this man's gut. Because all of this happened so fast, the hooded man didn't have time to react and ended up flying. He then collided with the Auction wall and went crashing into an invisible barrier.
Vomiting blood, the man's hood was already off his head as he hatefully looked at Theo. He couldn't believe there was anyone in this Auction who could attack him. Even more, that strike had hurt him!
This man was actually a Demi-Human with long brown hair and had a pair of short brown ears on his head. His eyes were reddish black.
Getting up quickly, the man glared at Theo as a warning. Realizing that Theo's Mana fluctuation was from someone in the 10th Layer of the Higher Student Kingdom, he seemed to be relieved. He thought that Theo could only hurt him because he had his guard down.
"You bastard… I'm going to kill you!" The Demi-Human started sprinting towards Theo.
