Chapter 4831: The only supplier

Not only was the exterior similar, but even the layout inside was the same. However, compared to the iconic bullring in the secular world, this place was not only bigger, but the facilities were also more luxurious. Of course, the biggest difference was that this place was not open air.
There was a circle of extremely exquisite and luxurious boxes around it, and below it was a huge and empty field. Hundreds of seats were scattered in this field, and in the middle of the field was a very eye-catching high platform, which was obviously the host of this auction.
Lin Yi couldn’t help but click his tongue as he looked at the magnificent scene. He’d been to a few high-level auctions before, whether it was the northernmost Island or the middle Island. They were all top-tier auctions, but the decoration was a little worse than this one. He had to admit that the East continent was indeed worthy of its name!
Lin Yi and honest Chai walked in and saw shopkeeper Hao and shopkeeper Jin, who had arrived first. A playful smile appeared on their faces when they saw honest Chai.
“Shopkeeper Chai, I didn’t expect to meet you again so soon. Speaking of which, where are your seats?” Manager Tong asked awkwardly. As for Lin Yi, he didn’t even look at him, thinking that he was just a follower.
“No. 1.” Honest Chai pointed to the area in front of them. Number one was the table closest to the emcee’s stage, and it was considered a pretty good seat.
“Oh, it sounds like something amazing? But why did I hear that all the big shots with a bit of status have their own private rooms? what does that mean? Your Hong Chamber of Commerce is such a big name, don’t tell me you can’t even get a private room and can only squeeze in with those ordinary disciples? Tsk tsk!” Shopkeeper Jin seized the opportunity to jump out and mock.
Honest Chai’s expression changed slightly. This was indeed a thorn in his heart. This auction was clearly an Alliance between the other competitors against the Hong Chamber of Commerce. The Morning Star Academy was supposed to be an impartial and neutral judge, but from the distribution of seats, one could already see the Academy’s position.
Although table one sounded very impressive, it was actually putting the Hong Chamber of Commerce on the fire. It would only make people laugh at it. Otherwise, with the status of the Hong Chamber of Commerce, no matter how bad it was, it could at least get a VIP box, and it would at least be in the top ten!
“Hehe, shopkeeper Jin, do you mean that the Golden universe Chamber of Commerce has been allocated a private room? I wonder what date it is?” Honest Chai retorted.
“I …” Shopkeeper Jin was once again rendered speechless. He blushed and shrank his neck back. What a joke! The Golden universe Chamber of Commerce was on the verge of bankruptcy. It would be a miracle if he could attend the auction. How could he have a vip room?
“Number 12!” “That’s a private room reserved for the wealthy families,” manager Tong suddenly answered on his behalf.”Although the Golden universe Chamber of Commerce doesn’t have one, it has become a subsidiary Chamber of Commerce of the wealthy families. Naturally, it can enter the private room with me. I wonder if manager Chai is interested in this?”
“Honest Chai, I think it’s better for you to quickly agree. Your Hong Chamber of Commerce has a powerful background, but it’s a pity that it can’t save your morning Star branch. If you rely on manager Tong, at least you can keep your food, and you won’t have to squeeze with the ordinary disciples in front of everyone and become a joke. We’re all businessmen who care about our image and face, don’t you think so?” Shopkeeper Jin said.
“Yes, you’re right. I do want my face, but unfortunately, you don’t want it, so I’d better stay away from you, so I don’t get laughed at.” Honest Chai glanced at him and said.
Shopkeeper Jin exploded in anger when he was looked at like a dog. If it weren’t for the Morning Star Academy’s disciples standing around him! He would have fought honest Chai to the death. Although he was indeed shopkeeper Tong’s dog, how could he expose someone’s wound like this?
“Hmph, you won’t shed tears until you see the coffin. Once the auction is over, it’ll be useless even if you come to beg me again, because by then, your morning Star branch won’t even be qualified to be a vassal of my rich and powerful clan. Just wait for your collapse.” Manager Tong’s expression turned cold and he immediately left with manager Jin.
Lin Yi and honest Chai looked at each other, not bothering to look at this clown anymore. They went straight to table one and sat down. The auction was about to start, and people from all walks of life were entering the venue. The whole place was very lively in a short time.
Lin Yi looked around and found that this was indeed the Morning Star Academy’s main camp. More than half of the people in the hall were students in their uniforms, while the rest were from all sorts of backgrounds. One thing was for sure though-these people all had extraordinary backgrounds, or they wouldn’t have been able to get in.
There were so many Morning Star Academy students, and there might be Xinyan and xiaotao among them. Lin Yi wanted to use his divine sense to check, but he realized that he couldn’t use it here at all. It was as if there was some special formation covering it, completely blocking his divine sense.
He couldn’t use his spirit sense to check, so he could only use his eyes to see them one by one. The problem was that the people in the VIP boxes couldn’t see anything unless they pulled open the curtains and had the right angle.
After looking around the place, Lin Yi sat back down in disappointment. Wang Xinyan and Huang xiaotao weren’t here at all, but it wasn’t strange. They were the only two disciples of Donghai’s godly nun, after all. With Donghai’s status, it was normal for them to be given a vip room.
Amidst the hustle and bustle, the Morning Star Auction finally began. A white-bearded old man with white hair and a ruddy complexion walked up to the center of the stage under everyone’s gaze, followed by an opening speech. It turned out that this old man was the official host specially invited by the Morning Star Academy.
The white-bearded old man was only in charge of the opening speech, and the next person to walk up the stage made Lin Yi’s eyes light up. It was a familiar face-the Dean of the Morning Star Academy, Ling Yuanqing!
Compared to the white-bearded elder’s boastful words, principal Ling Yuanqing’s words were much shorter.””Ladies and gentlemen, this is the second morning Star Auction after five years. I believe that all the Chambers of Commerce have already provided the most valuable items, and we will definitely give you an auction that is beyond your imagination. According to the rules, the Chamber of Commerce with the highest bid today will be the only supplier of this court. Please wait and see. Then, let’s begin.” (To be continued.) ”
