"Hehe, everyone, the item I'm about to present is worth more than ten times the Scaleless Fruit we just had! If any of you in the room takes a fancy to it, feel free to make an offer. As long as you can offer something of equal value, you may take it!"

On the auction stage, an old man was smiling as he looked at the eager half -Half-Emperor below. A look of satisfaction appeared in his cloudy old eyes.

After several rounds of intense bidding, the atmosphere in the auction room was now completely ignited.

Even these Half-Emperor- emperors couldn't help but feel a surge of excitement when they saw the old man on the stage take out one rare treasure after another.

After the old man's almost mystical explanation, even though everyone had some understanding of the auctioned items, the final result was still considered to be excellent value for money.

At this moment, as the atmosphere in the room grew increasingly heated, the old man showed no intention of bringing out any items for auction.

This elderly auctioneer was truly shrewd; he knew exactly when these guys were most excited, and that was the time he needed to seize.

Because only in this short period of time can the price of the auctioned item be increased in one fell swoop, and in each subsequent bidding war, the price of the auctioned item will be even more terrifying!

The result of this is that both the owner of the auctioned item and the auction house will earn more profits, a win-win situation, so why not do it?

At a certain moment, when the atmosphere in the room truly reached its peak, a satisfied smile finally appeared on the old man's wrinkled face. Then, he slowly took out an exquisite wooden box from the Storage Ring on his hand.

"Hehe, everyone, the next item is neither a rare and precious material nor refined steel or black iron, but, as I just said, its value surpasses, if not exceeds, that of the previous items."

After the old man finished speaking, the crowd erupted in excitement once again, but many more were anxious and dissatisfied with his unhurried pace.

Hearing the urging voices from the crowd below, the old man smiled again, gently pressing his withered hand on the empty space in front of him, signaling everyone to calm down. But in his heart, he wished the money jars in front of him would become even more lively.

After a few more breaths, amidst the anxious gazes of the crowd, the old man slowly opened the wooden box on the crystal table in front of him, and at the same time introduced it to everyone:

"Everyone, this Human Class Low Level cultivation technique: Howling Wind Method!"

"Whoosh--"

The moment those words were spoken, the entire audience was stunned. Everyone stared at the old man on the auction stage with extreme astonishment, finding it hard to believe that this man, who had not made a move before, was now unleashing a world-shaking technique that was enough to shock even Half-Emperor level expert!

Human Class cultivation technique!

Among all the Half-Emperor present, how many could possess and cultivate such a technique?

Most of these Half-Emperor- emperors only practiced Heaven Class- rank techniques, but the old man on the auction stage actually possessed a Human Class technique. How could this not make these Half-Emperor envious?

Seeing the frenzied expressions on everyone's faces, the old man's smile deepened, his old eyes gleaming as he slowly scanned the entire scene. Then, laughing again, he spoke:

"Hehe, everyone, please listen to what I have to say!"

This time, tempted by the Human Class cultivation technique, everyone immediately became obedient, suppressing their excitement and staring intently at the old man on the auction stage.

" The Howling Wind Method Human Class Low Level wind-attribute cultivation method, but it is a superior wind-attribute technique. After mastering it, one's movements become graceful and elegant. Upon reaching mastery, one can even conjure wind and clouds, gaining greater control over the cultivator's speed and the wind in the world!"

After a brief introduction, the crowd below the stage was already impatient. Before the auction even started, they were already preparing to fight over the prize, and various threatening words were heard everywhere.

"This is actually Human Class Human Class technique! I never expected to see one at this auction! Those 50,000 Spirit Coin were definitely worth it!"

"Hahahaha! Nobody can take this Howling Wind Method from me! I'm going to have it!"

"Hmph! A bunch of insignificant Low Level Half-Emperor, yet they dare to speak so arrogantly here! This Howling Wind Method is perfect for my grandson. Anyone who dares to compete with me for it, I will absolutely not let them off easily!"

"Hehe, everyone, please be patient. The question of who will ultimately win this ' Howling Wind Method' is now up to you. As you all know, the rules are clear: it's an exchange of goods, and the value cannot be less than the item itself. So, the auction... begins!"

"Whoosh--"

As soon as the old man finished speaking, a cacophony of bidding erupted, turning the auction hall, which had been quiet for only a moment, into a frenzy of activity.

After a fierce struggle, the Howling Wind Method finally fell into the hands of an ancestor of a powerful family. Of course, he also paid a considerable price for it.

The profits generated by this Howling Wind Method far exceed its original value!

Inside the VIP room, Xiao Yan watched the auction unfold on the screen and a satisfied smile appeared on his face, clearly pleased with the old man's auction method.

Before this, Xiao Yan had never imagined that a Human Class Low Level cultivation technique could fetch such a high price at auction, which was enough to demonstrate the auctioneer's ability.

"Hehe, Elder Chen is a veteran of Heavenly Cloud Auction House, and his auctioning skills are unmatched. This time, it's all for you, so the auction house specially invited him here."

Luo Jin, standing to the side, looked at the old man displayed on the screen and chuckled softly.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan's face immediately showed a look of gratitude.

"Thank you!"

Luo Jin smiled and shook his head slightly, then looked at Xiao Yan and said:

"There's no need for such formalities between us. I know you're no ordinary person, and so does Fifth Grandfather, though he doesn't say anything. If you insist on thanking me, consider my help as an investment in you. Just remember, don't forget you have a friend like me in the future..."

"No,"

Before Luo Jin could finish speaking, Xiao Yan interrupted him with a single word, causing Luo Jin to raise an eyebrow slightly. However, Xiao Yan then continued speaking:

"You and I are not friends... we should be brothers."

The first part of the sentence surprised Luo Jin Luo Jin, but then a smile appeared on his face, which gradually widened and finally turned into a maniacal laugh.

Xiao Yan, standing next to Luo Jin, was exactly the same.
