Chapter 98

Everyone was puzzled.

Not wanting an S-rank skill, but wanting a piece of Platinum-grade equipment?

Although Qin Qin Xuehou was excited inside, he still stood up.

"Brother Li Yao, I appreciate your kindness, but you should trade this equipment to that woman; no need to consider our friendship."

Hearing this, Li Yao’s mouth twitched.

Who has a friendship with you?

"This S-rank skill book overlaps with my equipment effects, I don't need it."

As he spoke, Li Yao looked at the surrounding professionals: "The original intention of holding this auction was to trade for the equipment I need. If there is anything unreasonable, please don't mind."

Everyone nodded in understanding.

Kujo Mise held her wine glass, sipping the red wine bit by bit.

Li Yao-kun didn't choose to trade with her, and she had no objections at all.

Coming here this time was more just to show support.

Trading was secondary.

As professionals from big families, they had participated in too many auctions of this nature and were long since used to it.

Bidding is conducted on the premise of having a need.

If one only cares about value and buys without need, should they ask the organizer to hold another auction?

Soon,

Under Li Yao’s instruction, the second auction item was brought up.

Looking at the display cabinet on the stage, which was even more exaggerated than the Yang family's,

The professionals who had no complaints just a moment ago immediately frowned.

What’s going on?

Copying the Yang family in playing the numbers game?

They didn't come here to trade for some scraps.

Yang Yang Jianliang couldn't help but laugh out loud.

"People from small places are just different; they have to hold an auction just because they looted a few pieces of gear."

"If your place is so barren that you don't even have StarNet, come find me. I’ll help you sell it; I’ll definitely get you a good price."

"But let me state first, we don't want Black Iron-grade equipment! Hahaha!"

On the Yang family auction side, someone immediately chimed in.

"Haha, the Yang family is worthy of being a prestigious clan, with a belly big enough to sail a boat. Just buy out their auction; save them from making a fool of themselves here!"

"Exactly, really thinking they are some big family. Taking out so many pieces of gear at once—if even one of them is Silver-grade, I'll count it as impressive!"

"Haha! I guess they saw the Yang family bring out so much top-tier gear, knew they couldn't compare, and had no choice but to do this."

In normal times, Silver-grade equipment dropped from Master-level difficulty would attract professionals from all walks of life to scramble for it as soon as it appeared on the StarNet exchange.

If the Yang family brought out a hundred pieces at once, as long as these professionals had money, they would all buy one for themselves.

Having tasted the sweetness, they naturally stood on the Yang family's side.

At this time, the Silver Wolf Guild host slowly announced the information for the second auction item.

"One hundred pieces of Silver-grade equipment, also the only equipment in this auction that can be traded with Dragon Coins. To avoid delaying everyone's time, they are all sold in a bundle."

"Silver-grade?"

Yang Yang Jianliang immediately stared with wide eyes.

Their Yang family couldn't even bring out so much gear, how could that kid Li Yao?

The surrounding professionals also hurriedly looked at the equipment.

"Holy shit! It really is Silver-grade?"

"Could it be that the Silver Wolf Guild took out all the gear they’ve looted in their lifetime to sell?"

"Dropped from ordinary difficult instances, the attributes are probably just so-so."

At this time, the host's voice sounded again.

"By the way, I forgot to mention one thing."

"These pieces of equipment were all looted by our boss himself."

"The vast majority are from Purgatory-level instances, with only a few from Nightmare-level difficulty."

"After all, we aren't like some auctions."

"Treating Nightmare-level drops like some kind of treasure."

"What did you say?"

Yang Yang Jianliang had a look of wanting to eat someone, staring fixedly at the host.

As a Fourth-Turn high-level professional, the aura Yang Yang Jianliang possessed was not something this host could withstand.

He was immediately suppressed by the aura and took several steps back.

However, the host wasn't easily scared.

This was StarNet; let alone a Fourth-Turn professional, even a Fifth-Turn wouldn't dare to make a move!

Besides, what he said just now was just repeating what Miss Qin Qin Yue had instructed.

If the other party wanted to find trouble, they couldn't find it on him.

"Mr. Yang, did you not hear clearly? Do you need me to say it again?"

"Hmph!"

Yang Yang Jianliang’s eyes widened in anger, staring at the huge display cabinet several meters wide in front of the other party.

"Whether it's a Purgatory-level drop or not isn't for you to decide."

Yang Yang Jianliang strode toward the Silver Wolf Guild side.

As long as the attributes of this equipment were made public, the Silver Wolf Guild's lies would be shattered!

"What? Is the Yang family trying to make a move?"

Li Yao watched the scene on the stage and slowly stood up.

Yang Yang Jianliang stopped his steps abruptly.

He realized he had been provoked by the other party's words.

This was StarNet; once a move was made, the consequences would be unimaginable.

After calming down and thinking about it,

The other party absolutely couldn't bring out so many Purgatory-level drop items.

It was highly likely they were just talking nonsense and then entrusting someone to buy them to save face.

Almost got scared by you!

Yang Yang Jianliang regained his previous composure and said with a smile,

"You keep saying it's a Purgatory-level drop, Boss Li Yao, it wouldn't be right if you didn't show us the attributes of a few pieces, right?"

To put Li Yao in a spot, Yang Yang Jianliang looked around and said loudly,

"I really haven't seen Purgatory-level instance drops. Let Boss Li open our eyes and broaden our horizons!"

These professionals instantly understood what Yang Yang Jianliang meant and hurriedly chimed in.

"Exactly, anyone can talk. If you don't show them, who knows what kind of equipment it is?"

"Maybe these items pressed at the bottom aren't even Silver-grade; it's not impossible that they're using Bronze or Black Iron-grade to make up the numbers!"

Just as the voices of doubt were raised repeatedly,

Qin Qin Xuehou was the first to raise his bid sign.

"One hundred pieces of Silver-grade equipment, right? I trust Brother Li Yao, twenty million Dragon Coins!"

The price of an ordinary Silver-grade piece of equipment ranges from ten thousand to one hundred thousand Dragon Coins.

Master-level drops can soar to over one hundred thousand.

Nightmare-level and Purgatory-level range from two hundred thousand to three hundred thousand.

If there are special attributes, such as life-steal, percentage damage bonuses, or attached movement skills, the value is immeasurable.

Selling for tens of millions wouldn't be surprising.

Qin Qin Xuehou’s bid was clearly based on his trust that what Li Yao brought out were all Purgatory-level drops.
