Chapter 331: School auction (1/2)

The auction in Silvaria World Inst.i.tute is in session only once a week. However, an impressive array of articles are put up for bidding every time there is one. Rare armaments, magic and battle skills for warriors or mages at tier 7, herbs that help with cultivation, and etc…

Because of the sheer scale of Silvaria World Inst.i.tute, there are bound to be unique resources transported from all over the world put up for bidding. In a way, the auction in Silvaria World Inst.i.tute is the largest in the world in terms of variety and rarity of articles being put up for bidding.

This is understandable given that if the auction isn’t impressive, the rich kids from the various factions probably won’t be interested.

Thus, once a week, on the day of the auction, the arena tower, commercial areas, and free trade zones would experience a decrease in traffic as the students would be congregating at the auction house.

On his way there, Wu Yan felt like the crowd is getting bigger and bigger.

According to the map, Wu Yan had arrived at the auction house so he looked around and he was stunned by what he saw. The auction house is gigantic.

He estimates that the auction house is at least 10 times bigger than the one back in supply town. It’s so large it’s almost unfathomable. If he calmed down and thought about it, it’s natural that the auction house is of this size. Silvaria World Inst.i.tute has a student body of about 10 million.

The vast majority of the students are of modest background so they don’t have sufficient credits to partic.i.p.ate. But, those that belonged to one of the 9 big factions experienced no such difficulty.

When he is still examining the auction house, the other students noticed him and they started gasping and pointing fingers.

“Look! It’s the newbie!”

“Well, look at the b.a.l.l.s on you. That guy is now the ranker no.25, this ‘newbie’ you are calling out is someone who fought the leader of Sea of Thick Ice to a standstill!”

“Yeah, if the fight continued, that guy would have won…”

“That guy is definitely someone who can one of the top 10 rankers…”

“I wonder which lucky faction he is going to join?”

“h.e.l.l yeah, whichever faction it is, getting a top 10 ranker in their faction is definitely a cause for celebration…”

As the students fervently discussed, their sound grew louder and louder until Wu Yan heard them.

The noise caused Wu Yan to raise an eyebrow. He felt helpless when he heard about the content of the discussion.

Oh great, just what I need, fame…

But, they should really tone it down a notch…

He looked at the auction house that is still a bit of a distance away and he moved towards it with such velocity that to the average viewer, his figure blurred and disappeared.

Wu Yan turned into afterimages as he zipped through the dense crowd using all kind of postures and stances. He made it through the crowd and he arrived at the main entrance of the auction house. He found another use for Eternal Arms Mastery but this isn’t a very dignified way of using the skill, he conceded.

Just when he is about to enter the auction house, a familiar voice rang.

“Yan, you came!”

Lulu squirmed out of the crowd, she is smiling so wide her eyes narrowed into the shape of crescent moons.

Fei Fei accompanied Lulu with a bunch of other Fatal Forest members. She raised Night Elf to wave at Wu Yan.

Wu Yan laughed as he greeted the two girls. He glanced at the bodyguards behind them as he teased them.

“Oh boy, as expected of people of stature, this crowd…”

Lulu rolled her eyes at him and she smacked him before pouting like a little girl. On the other hand, Fei Fei shook her head and joked.

“If you would like it, I can arrange for a similar treatment for you…”
