SUPREME ARCH-MAGUS

Holding the magical rusty key in hand, the old wizard moved to the edge of the auction stage to explain.

"Some of you might not know about the importance of this abyssal key. But this key is a token for obtaining one good treasure. Even though we don't know which demi-god inheritance ground awakening this time, one thing is sure.

On every inheritance ground, there will be a treasure trove palace where several rare treasures appear. To obtain these treasures, one must spend hours removing the bind on each treasure. But with this Abyssal key, you just need a second to get your desired treasure.

This key has a single use. But it's definitely worth it, to unlock your desired item in the treasure trove palace. Who knows, you might find a powerful weapon that can turn the planet upside down."

After giving a long explanation, the old wizard placed the key back on the try and let Jia handle the auction.

-The initial bid for this Abyssal key is 1 million mana stones!

Just as Jia announced, the bald Lin directly stood up and shouted 2 million mana stones! Those two million were the combined wealth of all Celestial Sun Fire sect disciples.

With a loud smirk, the slender guy of the Heavenly Monsoon sect shouted 3 million!

The elders who came as disciples also added their reserve mana stones to get that Abyssal key. The key is a guaranteed cheat for obtaining one good treasure. So, everyone wants to grab it.

-Master Lan, 3.1 million! Oh, the guest is room number 199, bid 3.3 million!

-Room number: 133, 3.5 million! Going once! Anybody?!

Peak master Porus hurriedly stopped Kent, who was preparing to bid for the Abyssal key. "Kent, the key won't have much use for you. All the treasures that appear in the treasure trove palace are spirit weapons. Even though the key unlocks the treasure, one must subdue it personally.

If you use cheats like Abyssal Key, the subduing process becomes more tough. More than anything, you use a bow. Not many people will compete with you if you find a bow inside the treasure trove. So, save the mana stones for miscellaneous purchases that will happen after the auction."

After hearing Peak Master Porus's suggestion, Kent nodded his head in understanding. Also, he only has a little above 3.5 million after spending so much.

But the lady in room number 199 continued to bid for the abyssal key. She failed to get the first two items because of Kent, and now she wants to get that key badly. She felt relieved as Kent sat silently without calling bids.

-Room number 221 bid 3.6 million!

-Room number 199 bid for 3.7 million! Oh, Elder Xing of Wind Mountain bids 3.8 million!

After a deep pause, no one crossed the 3.8 million mark, which is the highest bid in today's auction. Lady Jia began shouting the final calls.

Elder Xing, who sat on the first-row corner, is laughing with his golden teeth out. His son, Little Xing, is giving prideful looks to the disciples of Ice Castle who sat on the second row.

-Elder Xing, 3.8 million! Going once! Going twice!

Just then, the light in room number 199 glowed. In a stressed tone, the lady in room number 199 shouted 4 million!

-Room number 199: Four million! going once! Anybody left…? This is your last chance.

The lady in room number 199 sighed in relief as the elder Xiao stayed silent. That four million is her last struggle. Anything more than that is an impossible amount for her.

-"Room number 199, 4 million! Going once! Going twice! Going thrice! Sold!"

The lady in room number 199 almost jumped up from her seat in joy. The servant lady quickly took away the key on the golden tray for the lady in room number 199.

Lady Jia, holding the wand like a delicate lady, moved to the edge of the auction stage to speak her last words.

"Thank you for making this auction a big success. Before ending this auction, I want to deliver three important announcements.

The first one is that, in the underground room of this tower, we displayed all the utility items and rare treasures you might need inside the inheritance ground. Please check them out before leaving."

The disciples who failed to get any treasure made loud claps after hearing her words.

"The second one is," Jia continued after the noise died down. "Tomorrow morning, the teleportation gate of the Nine Cauldron Summit will specifically open to the persons who were going to the inheritance ground. You don't need to pay a single penny for transportation. Even though the teleportation gate won't take you directly to the inheritance ground, you will reach the desolate grounds.

From there, wizard association members will guide your path."

Loud clapping and cheerful shouts filled the room as every disciple cried out in joy. The free offer clearly saved them a few thousand mana stones.

"And the final one is that the person who receives the inheritance at the end will be recruited directly to the wizard association without any test."

The entire tower became dead silent for a minute. Suddenly, a commotion erupted as the disciples lost their wits in surprise. The wizard association only accepts three disciples for every recruitment. That too—one healer, one beast tamer, and one fighter. No one expected the wizard association to randomly announce this golden opportunity for the disciples.

Once a disciple recruited in a wizard association, they will spend a huge amount of resources nurturing him into a supreme mage. Even if the disciple fails to attain greatness, he will get a high position in administration.

That's why everyone felt ecstatic after hearing about that recruitment. While the crowd was celebrating in joy, Jia left the auction stage along with the old wizard.

"How did I do it? Grand-father?" Jia asked the old wizard, who had accompanied her until now on the stage.

The old wizard laughed loudly at her question. "My granddaughter is always the best. But I will be happier if you receive the inheritance this time." The old man replied with a chuckle.

"Don't worry, grandpa; I'm all prepared this time. I won't let anyone snatch my luck." Jia replied with a serious look.

"That's more like it. By the way, the young man named Kent seems interesting. Keep an eye on him in the inheritance ground." The old man spoke while checking out the revenue from the auction.

"He is just a rich brat, grandpa." Jia uttered, ignoring old man's suggestion.
