    Trantor: 549690339


    As Gu Leng cryptically finished his announcement, a riot erupted from the crowd beneath the stage.


    “Young Master Gu Leng, how much for this auction item? Hurry up, this old man can barely wait any longer!”


    The one who spoke was a wretched-looking old man. The sinister gleam in his eyes stirred uneasiness in many of the women present.


    Sizing him up, everyone could discern his wicked intentions.


    Consequently, many began to inquire, with even a few women amoung them!


    This unprecedented circumstance left the audience astonished.


    Women were also interested?


    Jiang Xiaobai, meanwhile, gazed at the woman in the cage on stage, his brow furrowing deeply. Influenced by his modern upbringing, he felt a strong aversion to the situation at hand.


    “Congrattions on beginning your selection!” a voice suddenly echoed in his head.


    “Option one: Ignore, reward – ten years of cultivation.”


    “Option two: Participate in the auction, reward – ten years of cultivation and a Sky Spirit shard.”


    “Option three: Do whatever it takes to win the auction, reward – ten years of cultivation, one immortal stone, and ten prestige points.”


    Jiang Xiaobai jumped, startled by the system’s voice that had suddenly emerged in his mind.


    As he stared at the auction stage, though filled with reluctance, who would turn down such benefits?


    Given such advantages, the more the merrier. Jiang Xiaobai didn’t hesitate to choose the third option.


    Auction or not, he was able to throw out a bid casually.


    Meanwhile, on the auction stage, Gu Leng had moved past his riddles, his facial expression no longer enigmatic.


    “To tell the truth, this individual here is a battle warrior our Gu n has nurtured using countless resources and painstaking efforts!”


    Upon the revtion, the crowd descended into a collective gasp!


    As citizens of the Northern State, anyone familiar with the Gu n would know about the Battle Warriors!


    This was a closely guarded secret of the Gu n, where they used unique methods to train warriors from a young age.


    Ultimately churning out Battle Warriors who knew nothing but ughter. The terrifying aspect was their capabilities.


    No one knew how the Gu n made these Battle Warriors extremely sensitive to the scent of blood, and, during fights, how they could increase their strength or attacks by utilizing fresh blood.


    It was a demonic method, but undeniably effective!


    When pitted against one or two enemies, a Battle Warrior may not demonstrate significant advantages over a regr expert of simr strength. They would just be a tad stronger.


    But when the number of enemies increase, the Battle Warrior could draw upon the fresh blood to recover or boost strength, progressively growing more formidable as the battle rages on!


    The Gu n’s training was brutal, and once a Battle Warrior was devoted to a master, they would be incredibly obedient!


    There was no need to fear any betrayal.


    Once, an influential faction managed to obtain a Dividing the gods Battle Warrior from the Gu n through some means. This Battle Warrior fought countless enemies growing stronger with every battle, and even managed to hold his ground against a Late Stage of Fusion expert. After that incident, the fame of the Battle Warrior skyrocketed!


    Previously, though people knew about the existence of the Gu n’s Battle Warriors, there was no precise estimation of their actual might since the Gu n never revealed it.


    The factions that had been subjected to a Battle Warrior either got eradicated or chose to keep silent about the incident.


    All these years, only that particr faction ever got a Battle Warrior from the Gu n. No other Battle Warrior had ever surfaced.


    Upon learning of the truth, the crowd went wild!


    Who wouldn’t want such a formidable killing machine? Utterly obedient, it outstripped any topnotch expert forcibly recruited at a hefty price.


    They readily obeyed orders and were unafraid of death!


    Seeing the enthusiastic crowd, a smile broke onto Gu Leng’s face on stage.


    It was an auction carefully coordinated by the Gu n, after all. How could they not present a valuable item?


    “It seems like everyone is aware of the Battle Warrior’s prestige.”


    “Now, let me drop another bombshell for you all. This Battle Warrior is one of the best-trained by the Gu n. His cultivation realm has reached the peak of Dividing the gods!”


    Immediately, the venue went silent. But within two to three seconds, the crowd erupted again.


    “Young Master Gu, just tell us the price. Even if it requires me draining all my wealth, I will fight for it.”


    “Let’s start, Young Master Gu. I can’t wait any longer!”


    “Hurry up, Young Master Gu Leng, let’s begin the auction now!”


    The people below the stage couldn’t restrain themselves. The potential of a peak Dividing the gods Battle Warrior in an intense battle was undeniable.


    Inparison, the value of this Battle Warrior trumped all previous treasures!


    From the mutterings of the crowd, Jiang Xiaobai learned about the terrifying strength of a Battle Warrior, leaving him awestruck. But he didn’t panic, pondering quietly to himself.


    “The Gu n can’t possibly be so generous. They know that no amount of money can buy a Battle Warrior, so why would they auction one?”


    “Something seems off.”


    Jiang Xiaobai muttered. He was aware of the maniptive tactics used by the Gu n.


    From his perspective, this Battle Warrior probably either was of poor quality, or had developed abnormalities during the training process, bing unruly.


    It was too wasteful to just destroy such a Battle Warrior when they could make a fortune off it. As Jiang Xiaobai looked at the Battle Warrior, he saw a hint of homicidal intent in her eyes.


    Just as he thought! Something was wrong!


    As Jiang Xiaobai sneered internally, Gu Leng announced the start of the auction. There was no starting bid, depending purely on the bidders’ financial capabilities.


    The winner would definitely be the one who was squeezed dry the most.


    The Gu n was truly ingenious!


    Unfortunately for them, they had Jiang Xiaobai, who was known to behave unpredictably.


    “Master, can you help me observe during the auction? I am curious about the problems with this Battle Warrior.” Jiang Xiaobai turned to ask Gu Ning.


    Gu Ning nodded. She too suspected that something was off and was quite intrigued by the rumored special capabilities of the Battle Warrior.


    Although their conversationsted merely for a few seconds, the bidding for the Battle Warrior had already skyrocketed to a chilling level.


    Three hundred million superior-grade spirit stones!


    And it has only been a few seconds!


    “Is the Gu n here to swindle money?”


    Jiang Xiaobai couldn’t help but exim. By the time the auction ended, the price was undoubtedly going to be in the billions!


    He also realized that the Gu n seemed to be in dire need of wealth.


    Deciding in his heart, he was determined to make a big fuss about this. He couldn’t allow the Gu n to continue prepping in secret, especially considering that it became apparent the Gu n indeed had a big n underway, just as Bai He had warned.


    The Gu n was definitely up to something big!
