Elder Yu unveils all auction items at once, a deviation from the norm. He announces a new rule: each participant submits a single sealed bid for any item they desire, with the highest bidder winning. Xu Zimei, intrigued by a golden, unbreakable item, learns from Zhou Tongtong that purchases require 'Contribution Value,' earned from excavating tombs. Zhou Yunque reveals the item is the 'Myriad Peoples' Relic,' forged from an immense collection of faith. Despite lacking Contribution Value, Xu Zimei boldly declares he will simply take the relic from whoever wins it, citing robbery and arson as the true paths to wealth.

Hearing Xu Zimei's words, both Zhou Yunque and Zhou Tongtong's expressions subtly changed.

The two of them never thought that Xu Zimei would harbor such an idea.

"Aren't you afraid of provoking public anger?" Zhou Tongtong couldn't help but say.

Previously, when Xu Zimei seized a spot at the Earth Divine Auction House entrance, maybe no one cared.

But if it continues one after another, it would likely arouse dissatisfaction and resentment among many people.

After all, whether it is the Divine Ruins or this Earth Divine Auction House, there are rules to abide by.

Those who attempt to break the rules never end well.

So the two never imagined Xu Zimei would think in such terms.

Snatching, more accurately, even brazen plundering.

To know that Xu Zimei had just arrived here and had no backing.

A lone person daring to be so confident.

Is it fearlessness or ignorance?

Zhou Yunque looked Xu Zimei up and down.

She pursed her lips, seemingly wanting to understand where Xu Zimei's confidence came from.

"What, do you think it won't work?" Xu Zimei asked in return.

"Where does your confidence come from, young master?" Zhou Yunque couldn't help but ask.

"I am my own confidence," Xu Zimei said calmly.

"Sister, this person is crazy, there's no need to bother with him," Zhou Tongtong couldn't help but say.

At this time, she actually began to persuade herself.

After all, Xu Zimei's words and displayed behavior left her completely unable to comprehend.

In the end, she could only attribute it to madness.

However, Xu Zimei was completely indifferent.

For those not from the same world and level, they naturally find it difficult to understand.

It's simply because their vision is too low to reach that level.

Not to mention snatching an item, if they knew Xu Zimei wanted the Twilight of the Gods,

to overthrow the entire Kun Ruins Domain's Divine Race's rule,

they would find it even more unimaginable.

Although Xu Zimei didn't speak, Xu Sanduo on the side couldn't hold back.

Knowing this journey, he witnessed Xu Zimei's means firsthand.

He had utmost faith in Xu Zimei's strength and admired him greatly.

This admiration even led him to idolize Xu Zimei.

And it was a fervent kind of admiration.

Now, hearing Zhou Tongtong's words, he naturally wouldn't stay silent.

"You can't understand the master's words just because you don't know how vast the sky is," Xu Sanduo said lightly.

"If you had the opportunity to witness it, you would understand what kind of existence the master is."

"This kid's been brainwashed, right?" Zhou Tongtong looked at Xu Sanduo and said instinctively.

"Alright, Tongtong, don't forget the purpose of our visit this time," Zhou Yunque said from the side.

Whatever Xu Zimei wanted to do, they were ultimately not the same kind of people.

Originally, she wanted to rope Xu Zimei in, to see if he could join the Myriad Immortals Left Alliance.

Now it seems unnecessary.

The two of them participated in the auction this time because they had their eyes on certain items.

At this moment, the two began filling in the prices of the auction items on the paper in front of them.

Since the format of this auction changed, they did not hesitate at all.

They directly wrote down the most extreme numbers they could afford.

"Master, are we participating too?" Xu Sanduo couldn't help but ask.

"Do you have Contribution Value?" Xu Zimei asked in return.

If other things were being traded, he might be interested in participating.

But for Contribution Value, he was too lazy to acquire it.

At this time, most people had already finished writing.

Every piece of paper was collected by attendants nearby.

Elder Yu stood on stage, smiling as he said, "Everyone, in the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, your final prices will be tallied."

"At that time, I will announce who the winning bidder is, so please be patient and wait a moment."

"Elder Yu, make it quick," someone shouted.

"I've saved up Contribution Value for years, just for today."

"That's right, I must have that Diamond Bracelet."

"Everyone, does anyone bid over 300 Contribution Value for the Soul-Return Pill?"

The crowd was abuzz.

At this point, the final answers had been written down on paper, and there was no changing it.

So many people began inquiring if anyone had offered a higher price than theirs.

If someone had, there was no reason to stick around.

After all, the highest bidder wins, and this auction only offers one chance.

......

"Miss Yunque, what are you here to bid on?"

A man in white with a somewhat sickly complexion approached.

He looked at Zhou Yunque and Zhou Tongtong.

His eyes couldn't hide his desire and possessiveness.

"Young Master Qi Shan," Zhou Yunque replied with a slight frown, yet her good manners prevailed.

"We are bidding on a cultivation technique."

"What a coincidence, I happen to be auctioning off the same technique," Qi Shan said with a smile.

Zhou Yunque's expression slightly changed.

Was it really just a coincidence?

"I wrote down two thousand Contribution Value, how much did Miss Yunque offer?" Qi Shan continued to ask.

With these words, Zhou Yunque and Zhou Tongtong's expressions dramatically changed.

Two thousand Contribution Value.

To know that the two sisters only wrote down fifteen hundred Contribution Value.

It's not that they ran out of Contribution Value, but due to the technique's worth, it was valued at most this much.

Even fifteen hundred was already more than enough.

So the sisters were confident.

But who would have thought Qi Shan would offer such a price?

This wasn't just a case of a fool; it was a pure case of a big sucker!

"Young Master Qi Shan is really quite bold," Zhou Yunque's expression was not pleasant as she said indifferently.

This item was still very important to the sisters.

The Enlightenment Technique could fill their lack of "enlightenment" within their bodies.

While not crucial, being cutoff suddenly was still somewhat unsettling for Zhou Yunque.

Yet Qi Shan laughed heartily.

"Miss Yunque, to be honest, this Enlightenment Technique is of no use to me.

I bought it to give it to you."

"Besides, my purpose for coming this time wasn't for the Enlightenment Technique but for the Myriad Peoples' Relic."

"Do you know how much Contribution Value I used to bid for that Myriad Peoples' Relic?"

When Qi Shan said this, his face was full of pride.

After all, in his view, wealth is a means to pursue women.

Know that he has liked Zhou Yunque for a long time.

And his greatest wish was to have both sisters.

To sit with both beauties, wouldn't it be wonderful?

But Zhou Yunque had always kept her distance from him.

So this time, Qi Shan planned to show off his strength.

In his opinion, he could win over any woman he set his sights on.

As for those he couldn't get, it was just because he didn't have enough money.

Originally, hearing Qi Shan wanted to give the Enlightenment Technique to her, Zhou Yunque instinctively felt repulsed.

But hearing Qi Shan bid for the Myriad Peoples' Relic, Zhou Yunque immediately glanced at Xu Zimei.
