Today was the day for his equipment auction, so he tore open a Return Scroll and returned to Wing Province City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Despite seven days of hard work, even fighting monsters ten levels above him, he hadn’t leveled up once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From this, it was clear how difficult it was to level up after level thirty in Battle Online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, just as he stepped out of the return point, he heard everyone chattering away.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Have you heard?

Please, follow me.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lucien followed behind the receptionist, who soon led him to a corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There were VIP rooms here, but those VIP rooms required spending tens of thousands of gold coins and required prominent status to enter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And Lucien, obviously, was not yet qualified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After all, while his strength was definitely among the best in the player community...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the eyes of the Native Residents, he was just a genius who hadn’t fully grown yet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So naturally, it was impossible to give Lucien any special treatment; being able to reserve a seat for him was already not easy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Looking at the almost full seats in front, Lucien was also very excited.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The more people there were, the higher the price his entrusted items could sell for.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If two idiots happened to bid against each other, that would be even better.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As time passed, at exactly 7:00 PM, the auction officially began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The entire venue slowly quieted down as a young and beautiful auctioneer took the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the auctioneer was the center of attention; an ordinary person might get stage fright going up there.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But this auctioneer, although she looked young, showed absolutely no stage fright.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, she gave a standard opening speech and words of thanks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then she directly started today’s auction.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Next, let’s see what the first auction item is this time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After speaking, she uncovered the auction item that was covered by red cloth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When everyone saw the auction item, they immediately went into an uproar.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thunderwing Tiger skin, it really is something from the Immortal Beast, the Thunderwing Tiger.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This is a top-quality material for making cloaks.

What will be the grand finale item this time?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I wonder if the other party has a thunderwing wind tiger whip this time. That thing is a major tonic!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Probably unlikely. It’s too hard to harvest a thunderwing wind tiger whip. Besides, I heard this time it’s a Chosen One. Based on their Gathering Skill level, it’s probably hard to harvest a thunderwing wind tiger whip.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, the auctioneer’s voice slowly drifted over. Even though the entire auction venue was very noisy, her voice still reached everyone’s ears clearly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Thunderwing Tiger skin, although it is only a dark gold level material, you must surely know how difficult it is to obtain materials from an Immortal Beast.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"If your own level exceeds the Immortal Beast’s level by twenty levels, the Immortal Beast will not drop any items, nor will you be able to harvest anything.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And if you don’t exceed the Immortal Beast’s level, not many people can defeat an Immortal Beast, so everyone should know how difficult these materials are to obtain.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Moreover, Thunderwing Tiger skin is also the main material for crafting cloaks and wings.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let me ask everyone, do you want this piece of Thunderwing Tiger skin?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Yes!\" The crowd’s deafening voices rang out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The auctioneer waited a moment before continuing:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Then, I announce that the starting bid for this Thunderwing Tiger skin is five thousand gold coins, and each increment must not be less than five hundred gold coins.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I bid eight thousand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I bid ten thousand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Fifteen thousand.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watching everyone bid one by one, Lucien nervously gripped the Ruyi in his hand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amidst the calls for bids, the price of this Thunderwing Tiger skin eventually reached two hundred and ten thousand.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was won by a very inconspicuous person.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It had to be said, this Wing Province City really was full of hidden talent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A very inconspicuous person was actually able to pull out over two hundred thousand gold coins.\u003C\u002Fp>",1543,"2026-06-06T12:44:53.359Z",1,"novelbin.me","f74c26d36e2aa599e2706c5901c1a97780409dac42a947d18745da0d17489304","battle-online-my-luck-is-so-high-it-s-basically--chapter-88","battle-online-my-luck-is-so-high-it-s-basically--chapter-86",122,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fbattle-online-my-luck-is-so-high-it-s-basically--cover.jpg"]
