C801 Start of the Auction
C801 Start of the Auction
"Okay, thanks." Wang Xiao expressed his gratitude.
For the rest of the day and into the morning, Tianji Sect did not provide food for everyone but only mineral water. Since they were both from Wulin People, it didn't matter if they didn't eat at night, and didn't feel hungry. But if someone were to bid on the Auction Conference, their mouth would definitely become dry, so Tianji Sect provided mineral water for everyone.
When the woman arrived in front of the little ghost, the birdman actually lewdly looked at her as if he had never seen a beauty before.
Cough!
Wang Xiao intentionally coughed, reminding the little ghost not to be so wretched. It's not like he hadn't seen the live beauties before, why did it have to be like this? Hearing Wang Xiao's cough, the little ghost became serious and complimented the beauty: "Beautiful girl, you really are clever."
"Thank you for your praise." The woman smiled.
"Beautiful girl, is it convenient for you to leave your number?" the kid asked.
Wang Xiao really wanted to grab the water bottle on the table and smash it down on the little demon's head. How could there be such a pervert in the Divine Monarch Sect, how could he have such a brother?
The woman said politely, "Sir, this is not my job. Sorry."
The little ghost explained, "Beautiful girl, I'm worried that I'll get thirsty later or I might not be able to find a place to go to the washroom. So you should leave a phone number for me so that I can contact you."
The woman politely said, "As for the bathroom, turn right. As for the water, we'll send it over later."
"Really? You didn't lie to me right? A beauty shouldn't lie to me right?" the kid asked.
The woman originally wanted to answer, but Han Bo said at this time: "This lady, ignore him. He is a difficult person to deal with."
Looking at the woman's leaving figure, the little demon continuously complained to Han Bo, it was not loyal enough to brotherhood, he was just about to catch up to the beauty and even successfully request her number. But because of one of Han Bo's words, he had no fate with the beauty.
However, no one paid any attention to the little ghost's complaints.
Wang Xiao discovered that people with different strengths would also receive different treatment.
The Tianji Sect provided tea for the experts of the Qi Master Stage, but the experts of the Golden Core Stage not only had tea, but also fruits. It was really f * cking unfair. Everyone was a customer, but wasn't there a saying that a customer was God? Was there anyone who treated God like that?
After Third Uncle Dai picked up the teacup, he turned around and smiled complacently at Wang Xiao, before slowly tasting the tea, looking as if he was enjoying it very much. He probably wanted to strike a blow towards Wang Xiao, looked down on Wang Xiao, and intentionally made Wang Xiao angry. He also wanted to let Wang Xiao see, that was the difference in treatment.
The brat also noticed the arrogant Third Uncle Dai and said unhappily: "This grandson, I really can't bear to see him act like that. "F * ck, he lost several hundred million in the stone hall, and now that he obtained a cup of tea, he actually became so cocky. If I was him, I would probably be embarrassed."
"Shut up." Wang Xiao said in a serious tone.
"Brother Xiao, even if I can't bear to see his expression, I'm still proud of myself in front of you." the kid said angrily.
"Forget it, there's no need to get angry with people like him." Wang Xiao said.
As they were speaking, a few old men walked up to the platform.
There were still seats at the top of the stage, and he reckoned that those seats were meant for them. Wang Xiao felt that these elders were like evaluators, with the audience at the bottom and the evaluators at the seats. Those who could make it onto the platform were definitely powerful individuals.
Wang Xiao suddenly saw a person, Yan Xiong.
As for the other details, Wang Xiao knew nothing. He knew that this person was an expert from the Martial Alliance, his name was Yan Xiong, and his strength surpassed the Qi Master Stage, at least he was also a Golden Core Stage expert. Back then, on a tranquil night, Wang Xiao had personally witnessed his battle with a mysterious Island Country Expert.
Not only was Kichiku Ichita's strength very powerful, it was also extremely strange. But such a strong person, was actually able to easily dispel all the abilities Yan Xiong had displayed, which showed just how strong Yan Xiong was, even within Golden Core Stage, he still possessed Top Level.
Other than Yan Xiong, Wang Xiao had also seen Mr Zhong, who had also appeared on stage. However, Mr Zhong was not an old man, he was a middle-aged man, a high ranking profound practitioner. When these experts appeared, the entire audience was silent, everyone quietened down, because everyone knew that the Auction Conference they had been waiting for was about to begin.
Han Bo lowered his voice and said to Wang Xiao: "Brother Wang Xiao, actually, these people on the high platform aren't the strongest. The alliance master of the Martial Alliance, the pavilion master of the Tianji Sect, none of these true experts have appeared, but they are definitely in the underground hall."
"Most likely, these powerful figures rarely show themselves, and are also unwilling to show themselves." Wang Xiao said.
"Of course, unless something happens to the Auction Conference, none of them will appear." Han Bo said.
"Everyone, thank you to all of my fellow citizens in the Martial Forest who have come from all directions to participate in the Tianji Sect. Everyone, please call me Mr Zhong. I am the host of the Auction Conference this time. The Mr Zhong's voice resounded within the great hall.
Although he didn't use the microphone, his voice still clearly appeared in everyone's ears, still reverberating in the hall.
The Wulin People below the stage did not give any applause, nor did any of them make any noise. It was not that they did not welcome the elders and Elder Yan s of the Martial Alliance making their statements, but these Wulin People s were all very sincere in their actions. They would not use their warm applause to welcome a certain someone making a speech or any other statement, after all, as long as they did not commit a heinous crime, the Martial Alliance would not come knocking.
And this kind of Auction Conference was different from the meetings of the big figures. If it was a meeting of the leaders and a powerful leader came on stage to speak, who below would not applaud? If they did not applaud, they would not welcome the leader and would probably leave the next day.
The experts in the hall all treated it with the usual attitude. Everyone only wished for the Auction Conference to start earlier, and also hoped that when the higher ups of the Martial Alliance made a statement, they would be done in three to five minutes at the most.
In the past, many of the conference rooms, even the Leaders would have to talk for a long time before they could speak. Ten minutes was considered the shortest amount of time. It was as if the leaders were trying to show off their talent. Even if they couldn't work as well as their opponents, they absolutely could not lose to them in terms of speaking on stage, especially not losing to them in terms of time. Later on, everyone found out about this and decided to limit their speech to no more than a few minutes.
In fact, the longer the talk, the better the benefits may not be. When Zhu Yuanzhang finished reading it carefully, he realized that the problem that could be solved with just a few hundred words, was actually solved with over ten thousand words of the Minister's writing. He had quoted the Confucian philosophy, the path of saints, and more, as if he was intentionally trying to manipulate the literary talent. Thus, Zhu Yuanzhang was very angry and ordered his men to drag the leader over and beat him up. After that, he ordered for all the memorials to be brief.
With regards to the performance of the crowd below, the Elder Yan seemed to have long anticipated this. Maybe every time the Auction Conference s appeared in the past, the Wulin People s were not too keen on the people onstage to speak, so everyone had this kind of attitude. After laughing very casually, Elder Yan said to the crowd: "Everyone, you are all experts in Huaxia, the future of my Hua Xia's Martial Forest, and also my Huaxia People's hope. It's all because of you all. Only then do all of my Huaxia feel proud … "
No one was willing to listen to the Elder Yan's words, because these experts only wished for something practical to happen and not hear the praises. So what if these words of praise were all over the place? They didn't bring any actual benefits to everyone.
Nowadays, people were not so easily fooled, and modern people only paid attention to practical benefits. In fact, the more cultured and knowledgeable a person was, the more advanced their thinking would be, and the harder it would be to fool them. For example, a few decades ago, many people had called out that it was very glorious, so glorious that it was like they were planting a tree and reclaiming a piece of barren land. "It is not an honor, but it is not a disgrace either. It is a need for survival. It is a true glory for those who have made their ancestors proud, and for those who have saved millions of people.
The slogans of glory that had once been there definitely would not work in this era. Now, if anyone were to shout about the glory of planting trees all day long, people would despise him, think that he was crazy, or think that he had no future.
Elder Yan continued to speak: "The reason why Tianji Sect is held, is to serve Wu Lin, to …"
F * ck, Tianji Sect was organized to serve Wu Lin, they wouldn't believe it even if they were beaten to death. In order to make money, it was alright for a lot of people to say that they wanted to serve the masses, but in the end, it was the masses that served them, so Wulin People would definitely not believe this kind of false slogan.
Elder Yan's tone turned serious as he said: "I hope everyone will think it's proper and not cause trouble. If anyone dares to not follow the rules, then don't blame us for being impolite."
The speed at which he was flipping through books was even faster than flipping through books. He had a benevolent expression before, saying that he would serve everyone and so on. However, in an instant, he became so serious. He also warned everyone to be honest and not break the rules.
Everyone seemed to have already expected the speed at which Martial Alliance Elder Yan Xiong would turn hostile.
After warning everyone, Yan Xiong continued to speak: "Next, please allow Tianji Sect and Mr Zhong to speak a few words."
Some people started to drink their water, while some people seemed as if they were about to fall asleep. It was always this way, and every time before Auction Conference, one would have to speak so much. Although this was an essential rule, everyone disliked it. They all wanted to be direct and start the fight as soon as they got on the stage.
Sigh!
The kid sighed.
"Why do you sigh?" Wang Xiao asked.
The kid said, "If there was a beautiful host or something on the stage, I would definitely be in the mood to watch. However, the people on the stage are either old men or men. They're not as beautiful as the beauties who just brought us water. It's so boring. "
"You only know how to be a beauty, wait patiently for a while." Wang Xiao was speechless. The little ghost was always thinking of beauties, as if it couldn't live without beauties.
