However, as the young lady of Myriad Treasures Pavilion, Xiao Yingxue naturally wouldn't judge as recklessly as Qian Fu.

Although she also didn't believe that a young man of only seventeen or eighteen could possess three Storage Treasures, she still glanced at the three rings in Wang Ruoxie's hand.

"May I examine these three rings?"

Xiao Yingxue smiled at Wang Ruoxie and asked.

"Of course."

Wang Ruoxie nodded and replied.

Xiao Yingxue took a ring from Wang Ruoxie's hand and then injected a trace of Soul Power into it.

"Wow!"

With the infusion of this Soul Power, a faint glow appeared on the surface of the ring.

The next moment, Xiao Yingxue's beautiful eyes widened with astonishment, because she had already discovered the secret of this ring.

"Oh my... How is this possible?"

Xiao Yingxue looked at Wang Ruoxie in disbelief, exclaiming in shock.

This ring is not only a Storage Treasure but also has a storage space of a hundred cubic meters. Usually, an Earth Tier Storage Treasure has a storage space of at most fifty cubic meters.

Moreover, this Storage Ring also has a recognizing ownership function, its security greatly surpassing that of typical Storage Treasures.

Most importantly, she also felt that this Storage Ring seemed to have a Defense Array carved within it, possessing defensive power.

"Are all three rings like this?"

Xiao Yingxue asked Wang Ruoxie.

"Indeed, there is no difference in storage space or defensive power among them."

Wang Ruoxie nodded, speaking.

"Unbelievable! Could you tell where these three Storage Rings came from?"

Xiao Yingxue gazed at Wang Ruoxie and asked.

"Acquired from an Ancient Ruin."

Wang Ruoxie smiled lightly as he replied.

He certainly wouldn't tell her that these three Storage Rings were all refined by him, to avoid unnecessary trouble.

"I didn't expect you to have such good fortune."

Xiao Yingxue looked at Wang Ruoxie with a trace of envy in her eyes. One must know that the value of these three Storage Rings is hard to match even by a typical Top Grade Earth Artifact.

Qian Fu and the young girl hosting them also showed expressions of shock on their faces at this moment, especially Qian Fu, who, remembering what he just said, felt his face burning as if he had been fiercely slapped a few times.

They could hardly believe that the young man before them actually possessed Storage Treasures, and judging by Xiao Yingxue's shocked words, these three Storage Rings were clearly not ordinary.

"Now, can these three rings be auctioned at tomorrow's auction?"

Wang Ruoxie said to Xiao Yingxue.

"Naturally, they can."

Xiao Yingxue immediately replied.

"By the way, your steward from Myriad Treasures Pavilion seemed to say that these three were broken rings."

Wang Ruoxie looked coldly at Qian Fu as he spoke.

Upon hearing Wang Ruoxie's words, Qian Fu's face changed color, and his body even trembled slightly.

"Qian Fu, you have been a seasoned steward at Myriad Treasures Pavilion. Yet, you judged so recklessly without even examining, deeming this young master's Storage Rings as useless broken rings, thus you are no longer fit to remain as a steward here."

Xiao Yingxue looked coldly at Qian Fu and spoke slowly.

"Young lady, Qian Fu knows his mistake."

Hearing Xiao Yingxue's words, Qian Fu's face turned ashen, not daring to show any defiance.

He knew very well the means of the young lady, understanding that no matter how he argued, it would be futile.

"Step back."

Xiao Yingxue said indifferently.

Qian Fu hurriedly nodded and agreed, then turned away and left.

"Young master, are you satisfied with this outcome?"

Xiao Yingxue turned her gaze towards Wang Ruoxie, smiling slightly as she asked.

"I suspect you had already planned to replace him."

Wang Ruoxie looked at Xiao Yingxue with a knowing half-smile.

He could see clearly that Xiao Yingxue's decision to remove Qian Fu from his position was not merely because of today's events, it was certainly premeditated.

Otherwise, no matter how valuable these three Storage Rings were, Xiao Yingxue wouldn't easily remove Myriad Treasures Pavilion's steward because of this.

"You are indeed sharp, young master. I had discovered Qian Fu was exploiting his position to buy treasure resources from clients at the lowest price, then reselling for much higher, amassing huge profits."

Xiao Yingxue did not deny it, chuckling, "Even without today's incident, I would find a reason to remove him to protect the reputation of Myriad Treasures Pavilion."

After pausing, she said to Wang Ruoxie, "Young master, tomorrow's auction will feature quite a number of rare treasure resources, are you interested?"

"Yes, I happen to need to purchase some treasure resources."

Wang Ruoxie nodded and replied.

"In that case, see you tomorrow."

Xiao Yingxue smiled at Wang Ruoxie after registering the three Storage Rings.

Wang Ruoxie nodded, then left Myriad Treasures Pavilion and returned to his room.

...

The next day, early morning.

Wang Ruoxie, Xueyao, and Ling Yu arrived at Myriad Treasures Pavilion together, then directly walked through the main hall towards the auction hall.

"To enter the auction hall, each person has to pay an entrance fee of one hundred Lower Grade Spirit Stones."

Outside the auction hall, two guards blocked Wang Ruoxie and his companions.

"A hundred Lower Grade Spirit Stones for the entrance fee, Myriad Treasures Pavilion certainly knows how to do business."

Wang Ruoxie raised an eyebrow, thinking silently to himself.

For a single auction to have tens of thousands of participants, charging each person a hundred Lower Grade Spirit Stones for entry allows Myriad Treasures Pavilion to gain millions of Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

Despite the quiet complaint in his heart, Wang Ruoxie and his companions each paid the entry fee of one hundred Lower Grade Spirit Stones and proceeded into the auction hall.

Wang Ruoxie currently had more than three hundred thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones and several thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones on him, so the hundred Lower Grade Spirit Stones for the entrance didn't bother him.

Xueyao, being a True Disciple of the Celestial Sword Sect and having a Seventh Layer Innate Realm Cultivation, didn't mind the entrance fee either.

As for Ling Yu, he wouldn't mind even a hundred Mid-Grade or Upper Grade Spirit Stones, given his status.

The auction hall in Myriad Treasures Pavilion was extremely spacious, accommodating at least a hundred thousand people, and its decor was exceedingly luxurious with beautiful crystals embedded in the surrounding walls and ceiling.

Aside from the seating area on the first floor, there were dozens of luxurious VIP rooms on the second floor.

After paying a fee of a thousand Lower Grade Spirit Stones, Wang Ruoxie and his companions entered one of the VIP rooms.

The VIP room wasn't very large, but it was exquisitely decorated.

A set of Golden Silk Nanmu table and chairs were placed in the center of the room, and on the table were some Spirit Fruits, which, though only Yellow Tier, were worth dozens of Lower Grade Spirit Stones.

On the floor was a rug made from the hide of a Demon Flame Flying Tiger, emitting a faint Spiritual Power fluctuation.

The walls to the left, right, and behind were adorned with famous paintings and warm, luminous orbs.

On the front wall, there was a large transparent crystal, allowing an impeccably clear view of every corner of the auction hall.

Most importantly, as soon as Wang Ruoxie and his companions entered the VIP room, they were greeted by a rather dense wave of Spiritual Qi.
