Chapter 554 - A Crazy Quote


Chapter 554: A Crazy Quote

Seeing that nobody had any questions, Lin Yuan continued. “Because there is no need for so many rules at this group welfare auction, everyone can call out their bid within half an hour. The person with the highest bid at the end of this period will be able to take home the 12 9.9 purity heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls.

“Of course, because the group welfare auction is for high-grade heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls, common rare resources will no longer be allowed to be used in the bidding, unlike the last time.”

Before anyone could ask how to differentiate between common rare resources and precious rare resources, Lin Yuan spoke again.

“In this group welfare auction, the definition of precious rare resources is relatively loose. Everything that can be sent to the Star Web’s Rare Lifeform Pavilion’s quarterly auction is counted.”

Upon hearing this, the men seated below who had been planning to bid on the heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls all fell into complete silence.

However, some of the men had obvious glee glinting in their eyes, while others who had worn confident expressions before now had their brows furrowed.

One of those in the latter group was Duan He.

When he had been preparing to participate in the group welfare auction for the heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls, Duan He had known that the bidding for the pearls would be defined.

Otherwise, if someone produced a Gold fey, another would produce 150 Silver feys or even 3,000 Bronze feys to top this.

No matter how one compared them, the actual price of 3,000 Bronze feys was higher than one Gold fey.

Yet, even an ordinary person would choose just one Gold fey over 3,000 Bronze feys.

It was just that Duan He would never have thought that Lin Yuan would set the bar so low in the auction.

Star Web’s Rare Lifeform Pavilion held an auction every day.

However, its quarterly auctions had very strict requirements for the lot; even some Gold spiritual ingredients were no longer accepted at these auctions.

Spiritual ingredients were only considered if they had reached the Platinum grade.

Duan He had thought that the 9.9 purity Cloud Dream Lake pearls could at least have been exchanged for materials at the same foundational grade, such as source-type items.

As an expert, Duan He naturally did not stock up on so many common rare resources.

He had long exchanged all of his common rare resources for source-type items.

However, Duan He now wanted to use source-type items as a bargaining chip to bid fairly for materials that were obviously not of the same grade as the former.

Duan He felt that he was getting the short end of the stick.

Nevertheless, Duan He would still bid on those Cloud Dream Lake pearls regardless of how he felt.

Upon seeing that the group members still didn’t have any questions to ask, Lin Yuan glanced at Listen beside him before sitting down on a chair behind him.

Sensing Lin Yuan’s intention, Listen immediately began hosting the group welfare auction.

As Lin Yuan’s representative in the group, it was natural to the group members that Listen was presiding over the auction.

Listen opened his mouth to speak.

Squinting his fox-like eyes, Listen said seriously, “Let’s all be livelier; you can just stand up and shout out your bids directly.”

Upon hearing Listen’s words, Duan He silently applauded the former.

This bidding method directly prevented bidders from using comparatively worse resources to bid.

If one used such a resource to shout one’s bid, they would likely be quickly called out by other bidders.

Every bidder was competing against one another. In an auction for something like heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls, nobody cared about anybody else.

By using a sub-par resource, not only would the bidding be ineffective, but one would also lose face.

At the same time, this competitive bidding could mobilize the atmosphere very well.

This sort of atmosphere was not meant to promote liveliness but to make it easy for bidders to outbid one another.

As Listen presided over the auction, people were already beginning to shout out their bids in an endless stream.

It could be said that Duan He had guessed Listen’s thoughts correctly, but he had not guessed the latter’s main motive.

After Listen had begun managing the Purchase With No Loss store’s fan club, he had also started seeing it as one of his own resources.

Listen could now recognize every member in the group.

However, Listen was still unable to discern each member’s wealth through everyday interactions in the group.

Through this group welfare auction’s bidding method, Listen wanted to assess and rank each member’s wealth in order.

Moreover, he hoped to use his fan club connections when developing the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce in the future.

Lin Yuan sat behind listening to the bids and found that some men were throwing out spiritual ingredients that he had never been able to collect before.

It was just that many of these were soon quickly outbid by others.

Lin Yuan couldn’t help but swallow his saliva. If he could only obtain all of these rare spiritual ingredients, he would save himself so much effort.

In this group welfare auction, it actually stood to reason that Lin Yuan was already losing out by taking out 9.9 purity Cloud Dream Lake pearls.

However, Lin Yuan did not feel this way.

He was using the elemental pearls that were supplied continuously in his Spirit Lock spatial zone in exchange for large quantities of different precious resources at once.

This would undoubtedly save him the significant amount of time and effort required to search for these rare resources.

When the Floating Island Whale hatched, he couldn’t build the Sky City on its back using just heavenly-maiden-grade elemental pearls alone. He needed to accumulate large quantities of various previous resources.

From then on, Lin Yuan would begin accumulating these resources. This would also save him the trouble of searching for them later.

If not, he would be in a terrible fix if he couldn’t find some of these rare resources later on.

The auction continued unceasingly, the atmosphere growing so intense that it smelled like gunpowder.

20 minutes later, Lin Yuan was rather shocked by some of the bids being shouted.

Just then, the Class 4 Creation Master, Master Duan Li, stood up. Her face flushed with anger, and she said to the woman with the whiny voice, “I have eight source-type items, 500kg of Platinum Thousand Opportunities Secret Crystals, one Platinum Fortune Sea Willow, and 45 scales produced by the Diamond Shining Luster Amphiptere.”
