Simplified Beast Evolution Path - Chapter 171
171 The Shocked Xuanyuan Haoyu
“It really is! It looks exactly like a bird’s egg and it’s shaking!” someone echoed.
The audience had waited for so long, and in the end, they only got a bird egg.
The grumblings of the crowd were endless.
Seeing that the situation had turned bad unexpectedly, the host quickly comforted, “Don’t worry, everyone. This auction will definitely not resort to fraud or fake gimmicks.”
!!
“Then you should say something useful!”
“That’s right!”
The host wiped the sweat from his forehead and continued, “According to the words of the mercenary, there were auspicious signs in the ruins!”
“That’s all?”
Everyone shook their heads in disdain.
“That mercenary is also someone with reputation and experience. The Beastmaster Guild can guarantee that.”
However, no matter what the host said, no one bought it.
After all, those who had been in the Beastmaster industry for so many years knew that there was no free lunch in this world.
Now, the host said that he could guarantee it in the name of the Beastmaster Guild.
However, if it really turned out to be a bird’s egg after it hatched, they wouldn’t have the guts to ask the Beastmaster Guild for a refund.
So for a moment, the scene fell into silence.
The host sighed helplessly and said, “So, the starting price is $100,000. I hope everyone can participate.”
In the VIP room.
“F*ck, I’ve waited for half a day and that is all?” Xuanyuan Haoyu’s mouth twitched.
Xuanyuan Haoyu reasoned that if it could be the finale, it would at the very least be unique. Ultimately, not to mention unusual, that kind of broken appearance could be found in Beast nests in the wild.
“I wonder if that person will make a move,” Xuanyuan Hong replied with a smile.
“Who?”
“Bidder No. 188 bids $150,000!”
Xuanyuan Haoyu was still confused when the emcee suddenly spoke.
He almost choked on his own saliva.
“That guy is really not a picky eater.” Xuanyuan Haoyu couldn’t wait to see who bidder no. 188 was.
Even Xuanyuan Hong’s interest was piqued.
“F*ck, bidder no. 188, you’re really awesome. You even bought this pitiful item!”
“You can give me the money if you think it’s too much!”
“This is a Beast egg from the auspicious ruins. It’s definitely worth a hundred million!”
“Bro, you’re quite good at fanning the flames.”
“I’ll pay $300,000. It’s just a small amount for a plaything.”
“Haha, he’s finally making a move. Bidder no. 188 has bid 500,000!”
The audience’s focus was none other than bidder no. 188, who had made the first move.
But most of them were just cheering for fun.
After all, as long as it was a Beast egg, bidder no. 188 would make a move.
As for Su Bai, he had a smile on his face, but his expression was calm.
Su Bai had already used the system to appraise the final Beast egg when it was on the stage.
It was true. The mercenary who brought back the egg was not lying, there was indeed an auspicious sign in the ruins.
Name: Water Cheetah Egg
Lineage: None
Potential: Mid-Gold
Talent: Advanced Water Affinity (Epic), Qilin’s Might (Outstanding)
Element: Water
Nature: Loyal
On the surface, it looked like an ordinary Beast egg, but the price could be around one million at most.
However, what really made Su Bai’s eyes light up was the second talent, Qilin’s Might! A Beast with double talents was very rare.
It was enough to make the price of the Beast egg soar, and the Qilin’s Might was even more extraordinary.
Water Cheetahs didn’t have the Qilin’s lineage, so they couldn’t have this talent.
The cause of this result was the so-called auspicious sign that had a great influence on the Beast egg by chance.
It caused the Beast to undergo a transformation and obtain a second talent!
With the influence of the divine beast Qilin, the Water Cheetah after it hatched would definitely be more outstanding than its own kind.
But it was a pity, the Water Cheetah’s foundation was too weak, even with the divine beast’s blessing.
The Water Cheetah’s potential was also much lower than that of Whitey and Bearen.
It was a useless Beast egg to Su Bai so he bought it for Li Yan.
No matter what, it was a Beast egg blessed by a divine beast, so it would be a waste to buy it for Whitey.
“Bidder no. 98 bid $2.5 million. Is there a higher bid?”
“Going once… Going twice…”
The bidder no. 98 was panicking. He was just playing around and didn’t really think of buying that Beast egg.
“$3 million!”
Fortunately, bidder no. 188 did not disappoint. He raised his sign a second later.
Bidder no. 98 was so relieved that he collapsed in his chair. He said with a sobbing tone, “Damn it, I almost went bankrupt.”
Bidder no.98 bought the Beast egg with $3 million because he heard of a story that he didn’t know if it was true or false. He was very close to becoming a joke for the others.
After the auction ended, many people wanted to see who the bidder no. 188 was.
But Su Bai had already followed the staff to the backstage, ready to take away the auction items.
“Where is Su Bai?” Li Yan scratched his head. He couldn’t find Su Bai even after walking half a circle.
“Probably he went out already. Let’s go to the main entrance to find him.” Zhu Lili said.
“Sure.”
The few of them left together.
At the backstage, Su Bai was in the lounge, storing the Beast eggs in boxes in his Beast Space’s Fourth Heaven.
Soon, an exquisite female attendant walked over and said respectfully, “Sir, as you’re a Gold Card member of the Beastmaster Guild, in addition to your status as a C-rank soldier, you’re entitled to a special discount. The total amount you spent this time is $19.6 million.”
Su Bai had almost forgotten about that. Being a Gold Card member could save a lot of money, not to mention being a C-rank soldier.
“Many thanks.”
After swiping his card, Su Bai saw two familiar faces the moment he opened the door.
“I-It’s you…”
Xuanyuan Haoyu was pointing at Su Bai with his eyes wide open.
“Haoyu, don’t be rude.” Xuanyuan Hong chided.
“Hong! It was this guy who used your name in the youth training camp! He even embarrassed me in public!” Xuanyuan Haoyu gritted his teeth and bellowed.
Xuanyuan Haoyu had come here only because he was curious and wanted to see who the bidder no. 188 was. He didn’t expect to meet his enemy here.
“It’s been a long time.” Su Bai was very calm and smiled.
“B*stard, don’t even think about leaving this place in one piece if I see you here!”
Xuanyuan Haoyu’s face turned red as he recalled the humiliation he had suffered.
“Shut up!”
“But…”
“I told you to shut up!”
Xuanyuan Haoyu couldn’t believe that his brother was scolding him. In the end, he could only grit his teeth and take half a step back, but his eyes were still fixed on Su Bai.
“My brother has lost his manners, please forgive him, Su Bai.”
“It’s fine, I’m used to it.”
“I have yet to thank you for saving my life that day. If you don’t mind, I would like to set up a banquet to express my gratitude.”
In Xuanyuan Haoyu’s eyes, Xuanyuan Hong’s humble attitude at this moment was a complete surprise.
Xuanyuan Hong was the most outstanding genius of the eight great families. He only had such an attitude toward his elders, but he was treating Su Bai the same way.
