  "Damn it... Chen Hao, are you still going to keep that rotten stone? Let that idiot take it back..."

  The arrogant Eastern Jun couldn't help but shout out loud, without hiding his voice at all.

  "Fourth Brother, don't be stubborn." Yun Fei Yan also said.

  "What's the hurry? Three thousand!"

  To everyone's surprise, Chen Huan's figure calmly said.

  "Haha…… Does he really think I'm an idiot? Three thousand 8th-grade spirit pills for a worthless rock, what a fool......" Yi Minghao heard Chen Huan's words and secretly speculated that Chen Huan was intentionally provoking him by raising the price to one thousand. As long as he made an offer, Chen Huan would definitely back down. Three thousand pills were also not a small amount for him, and if he really bought it, he would be out of breath with such a high price. And if this price was accepted by Chen Huan, that guy would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood.

  "Three thousand for the first time... second time, is there anyone who will bid?"

  "Ah, finally out... Hehe..." A loud, proud voice rang out, obviously from Minghao's emergence, which made him feel quite refreshing.

  "Three thousand for the third time, deal! Congratulations to the Seventh Package Town Yuan Kingdom's disciple Chen Hao, right?! Please come on stage to trade." The smile on Shu Ya's face remained unchanged, despite the price having exceeded her expectations by several times. She had seen many cases of genius disciples intentionally targeting and maliciously raising prices before.

  ……

  "Three thousand... just wasted like that, go ahead and take it, these are three one-thousand-piece Imperial Eighth-Grade Dan Tickets..." Yun Fei Yan said with some indignation. Although she was a bit annoyed at Chen Huan's immaturity, she hated Xing Ming Hao's malicious price hike even more.

  "That's not necessarily true." What made Yun Fei Yan, Dong Fang Jun and Dong Fang Jian stare in surprise was that Chen Huan actually smiled slightly and said: "My intuition has always been accurate, just wait and see that idiot spit blood..."

  Chen Hao finished speaking and took the dan ticket from Yun Fei Yan's hand, his body flashed and rose slowly, under the sympathetic, pitiful and idiot-looking gaze of the crowd, he fell onto the dueling platform.

  "Can I cut in here? If it's rotten, I'd rather not take it." Chen Huan didn't care about the gazes of the crowd at all, and smiled slightly as he said this, handing the dan ticket to the young waitress at the same time.

  "Of course!" Shuya smiled slightly and said: "I believe everyone is as curious as I am, Brother Chenhao, do you need our stone splitting expert?"

  "Not necessary!" Chen Hao said succinctly.

  "Hey, Chen Hao, little brother, this rough stone might really have purple jade in it. I'm warning you, don't cut it wrong or you'll be in big trouble... otherwise, you'll really lose out!" The old man sitting in the front row of the ordinary section shouted loudly.

  "Thanks for the reminder. I've been fond of carving since childhood, and I'm half an expert." Chen Hao said with a faint smile, his handsome face gleaming with a hint of pride. As he spoke, he took the raw stone from the maid's hand, and a cold light appeared in his hand.

  Chen Hao gazed at the Origin Stone, and his entire being's aura changed in an instant.

  "Huh?"

  The old man and many of the gamblers and carving masters present revealed surprised expressions as soon as they sensed Chen Huan's aura. Even Shu Ya and Yun Fei Yan were slightly stunned. This kind of aura was only possessed by true carving masters.

  "What's so surprising, Chen Hao's craftsmanship I and Dongfang Jian have seen before, absolutely top-notch... Cough cough, maybe this stone is not simple after all..." Dongfang Jun said with a hint of expectation in his eyes.

  "Have you seen him?" Yun Fei asked in surprise.

  "Yes! Yesterday, when the master of heaven called us to discuss matters, he revealed a small hand and carved out a person in just a few seconds. The figure was vivid and lifelike, but it was made of wood." Dongfang Jun said.

  Hsss...

  At this moment, after staring at the original stone for nearly half a minute, Chen Huan's small knife moved. There was no energy fluctuation, only the knife's edge flashing, but the hard original stone in his hand seemed to have turned into tofu, rapidly rotating in Chen Huan's left hand, with stone chips flying everywhere.

  Gradually, faint purple crystal lights began to flash vaguely...

  "Ah? Indeed, there really is a Purple Crystal Jade! What a formidable knife technique..." The old wooden man was the first to exclaim.

  "Haha... How big of a deal is the Purple Crystal Jade? 3,000 eighth-grade Spirit Pellets are enough to buy several accessories. A fool is still a fool, daring to make a scene on stage, and yet half an expert..." Yi Minghao said disdainfully in a loud voice, but before he could finish, he was interrupted by the crowd's exclamations.

  "Ah...... no way? So big......"

  Intense purple crystal shards flashed at this moment, the original stone still rapidly rotating in Chen Huan's hand, the knife edge not stopping. In everyone's eyes, the outer layer of the original stone had already been completely stripped away, and now under rotation, it was like an irregular purple crystal ball with a diameter of more than half a foot.

  "This......" Shuya and Yunfei Yan were also shocked, their eyes wide with amazement. Although they hadn't seen it clearly yet, a purple crystal of this size could be made into hundreds of purple crystal accessories. If the craftsmanship was top-notch, what price would it fetch? This was luxury goods...

  Just then, Chen Huan suddenly stopped. The rotating purple crystal also appeared clearly in everyone's eyes, and a burst of gasps sounded at the same time.

  Yi Minghao's eyes almost fell to the ground, especially Yi Minghao, who had an urge to vomit blood. How valuable is this? Three thousand? Damn it, even three hundred thousand can't buy it...

  But just as everyone was shocked beyond words, Chen Hao's calm and mysterious gaze flickered slightly, and in an instant, the knife light flashed again!

  This time, there were no purple crystal shards, but in an instant, the huge purple crystal was mysteriously cut into several irregularly shaped blocks.

  Just this one move made Mu Lao and other masters exclaim in surprise.

  Amethyst jade rough stone, Chen Huan was able to peel off the outer skin like cutting tofu. Although it's impressive, it's not surprising enough. But now it's amethyst jade, extremely hard, requiring a sharp and unmatched treasure knife that can cut iron like mud, and also needs to stimulate energy to slowly carve and refine... but Chen Huan still seems to be cutting tofu...

  This didn't just shock the masters, even the top-notch experts present were shocked and stared with wide eyes.

  After cutting it into several pieces, Chen Huan picked out only one piece that was neither too big nor too small, and threw the rest into his storage ring. This piece of purple crystal jade, however, produced extremely fine dust under Chen Huan's knife edge, wasting materials that could be completely ignored. Gradually, a vivid figure appeared before everyone's eyes, with feet treading on auspicious clouds, and an immortal aura...

  The disciples of the Imperial New Star Hall, as well as all the big shots who had seen this figure before, were suddenly shocked and exclaimed.

  The person carved out by Chen Hao was none other than Mu Qing, the majestic master of the Imperial New Star Pavilion, the Imperial Guardian Master, and the number one expert!

  The expression and breath are exactly the same!

  "General Manager Shu Ya, I have always admired Senior Mu in my heart. On a whim, I carved this purple crystal into a statue of Senior Mu, but I don't dare to keep it for myself. Since there are many fans of Senior Mu present, why not auction it off and let the true admirer of Senior Mu obtain it?" Chen Hao said calmly, gazing at Shu Ya.

  Shu Ya's eyes lit up instantly, and she gazed deeply at Chen Huan, saying: "Of course! Mu Qing is the first master of the Empire, a senior whom all cultivators admire. And this statue... is simply divine craftsmanship, containing the aura of Senior Mu! Just this aura gives Shu Ya a sense of sudden enlightenment... it's too amazing!"

  "It's best we start the auction now, I need the dan medicine." Chen Huan smiled slightly and carefully handed the carved statue to Shu Ya.

  "No problem."

  "Thank you!" Chen Hao said, and then floated up amidst the stunned crowd, his eyes flashing with a strong sense of disdain, coldness, and arrogance as he glanced at Mi Minghao's pale face and Yin Fenghan's clenched teeth, before slowly descending into his own private room.

  ……

  "This is a special auction. Shuya is here to explain and set the starting price. Simply calculating the volume and quality of this purple crystal jade, its value can reach two thousand eight-grade pure yang dan. However, as everyone knows, purple crystal jade pendants are luxury goods, and apart from their volume and quality, they also value craftsmanship, with great collection value. The same purple crystal jade, under the hands of different carving masters, can have prices that differ by several times or even tenfold. And as for Chen Huan's craftsmanship in the Zhenyuan Kingdom... I think this is the most formidable Shuya has ever seen, without exception. Those present who are expert-level masters should not disagree with this, right?"

  "Absolutely! I've seen countless carving masters, but none of them can reach the level of Chen Huan's younger brother!" The old man said excitedly. At the same time, many people responded in agreement.

  Shuya smiled slightly and continued, "So, even if we calculate it as three times the price, the starting bid should be at least six thousand. Moreover, Shuya believed that this sculpture indeed contained Mu Qianbei's aura, with a feeling of being in harmony with nature. And Mu Qianbei was a leading figure in the cultivation world of our Xuanwu Empire. Therefore, the starting bid is set at 10,000 eighth-grade spirit dan! Each increase in price must not be less than 1,000! The auction begins now, and the highest bidder wins!"

  "Eleven thousand one!"

  The old man's first expression was excited. 11,000 yuan, for him, had already reached the point of severe bleeding. But he knew that the value of this statue could absolutely be multiplied several times. This was just a temporary auction, not now, but after making some publicity, it would definitely sell for a sky-high price.

  "Fifteen thousand!"

  As soon as the old wooden voice fell, a faint voice came from the VIP box near the center. It was obviously the elder who led the Imperial Newcomer Hall.

  "Twenty thousand!"

  Just as everyone was amazed, a voice came from the middle of the three golden boxes in the VIP seat that were clearly different from other VIP seats.

  "Ah...... The Xue family, one of the top three families in the empire, has made its move..."

  Twenty-one!

  The old man from Imperial Newcomer Hall made a bid again.

  "Twenty-five thousand!" Before the Xue family could make a bid, another voice came from a golden private room.

  Make everyone marvel at the wealth of the top forces. The old man can only stare blankly, sit down in frustration. Although he knew he would make a profit, he couldn't afford to pay the price, so he had to smash his pot and sell his iron.

  "...... Chen Hao, you're so lucky, you've struck it rich......" Dong Fang Jun said with a stunned expression on his face, seemingly having completely forgotten about his past conflicts with Chen Hao.
