Chapter 118 – Ingenious work
For everyone, this was the first time they had ever witnessed such a large amount of third levelled profound armaments.
So each time a new profound armament was brought on stage, the garnered reactions were surprise and admiration.
From the accumulation of anticipation within the atmosphere, it became more and more rowdy!
Coupled with the ingenious hyping executed by Manager Sun, many large families who did plan on participating were also roused and began to bid. They too stepped into the ranks bidders.
The final prices of each new profound armament also rose higher and higher. So much that for one third levelled profound armament that could increase cultivational speed, had been sold for the astronomical price of one million silvers!
This caused Manager Sun's smile to beam so wide that later, he could not even close his mouth.
So much money!
After this many years of hosting auctions, the total amount of silvers spent in the each auction could not compare to today!
When the mood had reached the highest peak, Manager Sun coughed lightly and said: "Everyone, please settle down. Please settle down for a short while!"
But those below still continued their ruckus.
Wrinkling his eyebrows, Manager Sun spoke again. This time he shouted loudly: "Everyone! Please do not be hot-tempered! Those who did not successfully bid for a profound armament, do not worry. Because we are about to reveal the highlight of this auction!"
Once his words fell, the noise immediately stopped.
Numerous eyes were bulged open in surprise without blinking as they fixed their undivided attention to the stage.
This highlight treasure had already, seven days prior, been painted out by Thousand Treasure Pavilion. Spreading throughout the entire capital!
In the legends, only advanced grade Armament Masters would be able to refine a profound armament set!
Although it was at the third levelled, profound armament sets were extremely rare. It was definitely something that an ordinary Third Tiered Profound Armament was incapable of creating. You didn't even need to mention their boundless might!
The true buyers had all come for this set of profound armor.
Clapping his hands, thirteen beautiful women walked on stage. Each carrying a silver casket!
The entire set of that profound armor was displayed for all to see.
Under the lightning, each component of the profound armor glowed a dark cyan colour which matched with engraved carvings. This made it seem all the more mysterious and powerful.
The bustling auction hall instantly turned tranquil and calm.
Every single person held their respective breaths as they observed in admiration towards the work on stage!
Manger Sun said: "This profound armor set consists of thirteen components. Each one is able to increase offensive power by two fold individually. Once they are completed to form a complete entity, one's defensive power is risen explosively. It would be approximately three times stronger than a practitioner at the Defensive Profound Realm! Apart from this, there is active attack type profound skill——Dark Vortex!"
"Dark Vortex? What profound skill is this?"
"Right? How come I have never heard of it?"
Towards the questions and musings of the crowd below, Manager Sun was unperturbed.
"This is the first time that this profound skill is seen. It may possibly be a personal skill of this hidden master's. After going through a round of testing in Thousand Treasure Pavilion, we have concluded that its attack power is immense! It can increase the attack by fives times, dealing a critical blow to the opponent! Furthermore, it has an additional cursing attribute that will greatly decrease the opponent's speed and offense!"
"What? Five fold? ?"
"And it also has an additional curse? ?"
"How could this be? Such a powerful profound skill should be at the black level middle grade? To carve and meld this profound skill into the profound armor, how high would this Armament Master's skill be?"
"Right. This is just too amazing. Manager Sun, are you purposely speaking such lies to raise the price of this item?"

Chapter 119 – How much……….can one jin of reputation be worth?
Holding onto his beard, Manager Sun said in a stern tone: "Our Thousand Treasure Pavilion businesses were always honest and upright. How could we possible lie to everyone? Since this profound armor set became the highlight product of this auction, it would also be tested on site to reveal its effects for all to see!"
Then he smiled and said: “Below, the Armament Guild's Vice President Yan who will personally test this profound armor for us!”
“Grandmaster Yan? Did I hear incorrectly?”
“It's actually Grandmaster Yan!”
“Thousand Treasure Pavilion really isn't simple. To be able to invite Grandmaster Yan to personally test this work!"
The audience marvelled at Thousand Treasure Pavilion's large influence in shock!
One must know that the Armament Guild was a very arrogant group. To invite them to test credibility of a product, in their view, was a degrading task. And only those lower class people would do such a thing. Towards such a respectable profession, an Armament Master would not undertake such a dangerous job.
Not to mention that Grandmaster Yan was a stately Third Tiered Armament Master. In South Yue, he was a highly respected and famous old man.
It was simply a miracle for thousand Treasure Pavilion to invite such a character!
As Manager Sun listened to those praises, his smile turned very mysterious and unreadable.
In actuality, he knew the truth far better than anyone else. The reason behind Grandmaster Yan's trip today was not through his invitation, but out of his own wishes!
Grandmaster Yan most definitely did not come on behalf of Thousand Treasure Pavilion's face. He came purely because he was impressed but such high levelled work seen through this profound armor set. Even at the expense of several trips to request to examine the piece, he was still declined. In order to grab the opportunity to have a close examination of this work of art, he even volunteered to test it at the auction! Sacrificing himself.
Unfortunately, even if he was ready to put his life on the line, the mysterious master would also refuse to see him………..
Under the supervision of Grandmaster Yan, the test process was carried out in a strict and orderly manner.
Meanwhile in the private room, the legendary creator Huang Yue Li merely hooked her lips in an arc, a ray of sharp light passing through her eyes.
Sitting to her side, the lord of Thousand Treasure Pavilion, narrowed his eyes slightly when he saw her sly smile.
This little fox………what ghostly idea is she thinking of again?
Coincidentally, Huang Yue Li turned towards him, making eye contact.
Huang Yue Li then revealed a toothy grin and said: “Lord Owner, I have an idea. I wish for you to lend me a few of your bodyguards to use. This will enable for this profound armament to sell for a higher price. Do you have an interest?"
The man became startled momentarily, not answering immediately.
When this little girl exposed her two rows of orderly and white teeth, those light pink lips were like cherry blossoms, incomparably beautiful and lovely.
Just like misty pearls, suddenly releasing a dazzling brilliance. Simply breathtaking.
More importantly, it was the first time that the little fox laughed so amicably towards him. It even seemed a bit illogical……….
The man slowly spat out two words: “No interest!”
“You!” That smile disappearing instantly from the little fox's face. Turning fierce, she stared at him, “Did you not say that you will make money for me? Lord Owner, why are you backing out so soon? A man should possess a little credibility no? Okay?
The man shrugged his shoulders and said, “How much……….can one jin of reputation be worth? Can you use it to feed yourself?
The tone he spoke in was not particularly dull. But in the current situation and under that circumstance, it seemed especially flat in Huang Yue Li's ears!
“Your face is really thicker than the walls!”
"Flattery, flattery." The man turned the topic around, “However, if you are willing to kiss this Lord……..then this Lord can consider helping you.”
