Chapter 97
Kujo Mise sat with her legs crossed, saying nonchalantly,
"I bid one S-rank Summoning skill book."
As soon as these words were spoken, those around were shocked.
"Are you crazy! An S-rank skill book is more precious than Platinum-grade equipment!"
"Who is this woman? A new face, how is she so rich?"
"It's a pity she's not smart. No matter how good the attributes of this weapon are, it's still just equipment that will eventually be replaced, unlike skills that can accompany a professional for a lifetime."
Qin Qin Xuehou had been excited seeing that Li Yao was ready to choose him, but he was doused with a bucket of cold water.
(This chapter is not finished, please click the next page to continue reading the exciting content!)
Seeing the person who spoke, his anger flared up.
It’s this Sakura Country woman again!
But he had nothing to say.
This was an auction; whoever bid higher won.
It wasn't that he didn't have S-rank skills, but he wouldn't bid one for a piece of Platinum-grade equipment.
Just as everyone thought Li Yao would choose Kujo Mise,
Another voice came from the Yang family venue.
"One S-rank skill book, plus one piece of Platinum-grade equipment."
"Hiss!"
As soon as this was said, the sound of people gasping in shock echoed one after another.
Trading Platinum for Platinum, and throwing in an S-rank skill book?
When everyone saw who spoke, they felt it was only natural.
It was Yan Yan Lingtian.
Then it was fine!
A famous prodigy from Jingcheng, with the SS-rank class [Mountain-Sea Heavy Cavalry].
The hammer was his life-bound weapon; a good weapon was enough to let him achieve better results in the Wu Kao.
It was no surprise he would call out such a price.
But wasn't this kid at odds with Li Yao?
Calling out a price now, wasn't that admitting defeat?
Just as everyone expected, Yan Yan Lingtian’s face turned pale and green, and he didn't even dare to look Li Yao in the eye.
He gritted his teeth and said:
"Li Yao, as long as you trade this hammer to me, the previous grudge between you and the Yan family will be wiped clean!"
"And the price I called out will also belong to you."
The scene fell into a dead silence, everyone looking at Li Yao, waiting for his answer.
Was this the Yan family backing down to the Silver Wolf Guild?
These big family descendants certainly wouldn't believe that a junior like Yan Yan Lingtian had the authority to decide the grudge between the Yan family and Li Yao.
Without the instruction of the elders in the clan, even if he liked this hammer, he would never dare to say this!
Who would have thought that one could see such a drama at an auction.
However,
Li Yao did not answer Yan Yan Lingtian’s question.
Instead, he stood up and walked out of the venue.
A few breaths later, he returned to the venue.
He had an extra sign in his hand, and under the watchful eyes of everyone, he placed this sign in front of Yan Yan Lingtian.
Some uninformed professionals hurriedly looked at the sign.
"Holy shit!"
"Holy shit!"
"He really dared!"
These professionals' eyes widened like copper bells; they couldn't believe the fact they were seeing.
"Are you kidding? Even if you don't want to reconcile, there's no need to insult the Yan family like this, right?"
"Don't you know what happened between the Yan family and Li Yao?"
"That day in the Primal Instance, the Yan family basically forced Li Yao into a dead end. Even if he handed over the first-clear treasure chest, the Yan family wouldn't have let Li Yao leave alive!"
"If it were me, I would have done even worse!"
"Good show to watch. On one side is a rising prodigy, on the other is an old-school prestigious family. If I were Yan Yan Lingtian, I wouldn't have the face to stay here!"
Yan Yan Lingtian was used to being arrogant and domineering in Jingcheng; seeing him get humbled in front of Li Yao, everyone was in the mood to watch a show.
With this sign standing before his eyes, Yan Yan Lingtian could barely control his anger.
If not for the Yan family members holding him back tightly,
"Brother Tian, don't be impulsive. This is StarNet; this kid is just deliberately provoking you!"
Yan Yan Lingtian stared fixedly at Li Yao; if looks could kill, Li Yao would have been killed by him countless times.
"Don't worry, I know."
After Yan Yan Lingtian finished speaking, he sat in his seat without saying a word.
Anyone could see the anger in his heart from those resentful eyes.
At this time, Yang Yang Jianliang, standing at the front of the venue, spoke up to console him.
"Young Master Yan doesn't need to be so angry. Some people can only be arrogant on StarNet."
"After the auction ends, I invite Young Master Yan to grace my Yang family with a visit."
Yang Yang Jianliang clapped his hands.
A waiter carried a huge transparent box and appeared before everyone's eyes.
"So many?"
"Is this wholesale?"
The professionals from big families all had disdain in their eyes.
This guy said Li Yao absolutely couldn't bring out items, and this is it?
Winning by quantity—it's a wonder this old guy could say it out loud.
Yang Yang Jianliang, however, ignored their gazes completely and announced loudly:
"Our Yang family's first auction item is these fifty pieces of Silver-grade equipment."
"All produced from Master-level difficulty to Nightmare-level difficulty; the attributes are absolutely the highest tier for Silver-grade equipment of the same level."
"Fine quality, favorable prices; everyone can participate in the purchase."
"Our Yang family absolutely ensures every guest can participate in the auction. If you have needs, just place your order and bid from your seat."
As Yang Yang Jianliang spoke, he looked provocatively at Li Yao.
The Silver Wolf Guild couldn't even clear Master-level instances, so how could they bring out fifty pieces of top-tier Silver-grade equipment?
However,
Li Yao looked at his tablet with a calm expression.
Yang Yang Jianliang snorted disdainfully.
Putting on an act!
Inviting so many big families at once—even their Yang family wouldn't dare.
When the time comes and you can't bring out equipment or items that satisfy them, let's see how you end this!
Li Yao didn't know Yang Yang Jianliang's psychological activity, and even if he did, he wouldn't care.
He was currently looking at the trade items proposed by Kujo Mise.
To be honest, the other party had indeed put in effort.
But this S-rank skill overlapped with the effect of his [Beast King Robe], so he really couldn't muster any interest.
Li Yao signaled the host that he would still trade with Number 18.
The host announced.
