Legend of the Asura

At nine, the auction began.  The owner of "Popular World" and the host Maniac came to the stage from behind without any expression.  His small figure made the noisy auction hall fall silent.

"The auction is beginning!  The first up is the Guild Formation Token."  His words were simple and straight to the point, Maniac never wasted a single word.  It was his first time being stared at by all these people and they were all people with the most influence in China, which meant it was a unique honour, but his expression didn't change at all.  It was like a fossil that had been forged over tens of thousands of years.

With this short sentence, the auction hall began to seethe with excitement.  Everyone thought that the Guild Formation Token would be the last item, but they never thought that it would be first.  Countless guild bosses had their eyes light up as they focused themselves.

Maniac had his own ideas for planning it like this.  If he auctioned the high grade equipment first, those people who wanted the Guild Formation Token would have scruples and wouldn't compete as fiercely.  If it was placed behind the Guild Formation Token, then those rich people who didn't get the Guild Formation Token would be unshackled and wouldn't leave here empty handed.

"This is the first Guild Formation Token.  The lowest price is three hundred thousand and each increment can't be less than ten thousand.  Let the auction begin."  Maniac took out the black token and at the same time, its stats were displayed on the screen behind him.

There were only three letters: Guild Formation Token.

The auction hall was silent and countless people held their breaths.

At the same time, the Heavenly Dragon Square was filled with people who were all watching the five several meter tall magic screens.  Maniac had spent fifty thousand to rent the magic screens to show the auction, which was also a golden opportunity to advertise "Popular World".

This auction would decide the first guild of «Rebirth» and everyone here would be able to witness the birth of the first guild.

"Four hundred thousand!  Green Bamboo Guild's boss, Wild Wind War God!"  A man who looked to be around thirty seized this opportunity, not forgetting to advertise his guild.

Feng Xiao secretly called this person an idiot, coming out to embarrass himself without even looking at the money ranking.

"Four hundred and fifty thousand!  Mouse Guild's Minor Character A!"

"Four hundred and sixty thousand!  Stray Cat Guild's Minor Character B!"

"Four hundred and eighty thousand!  Shepherd Dog Guild's Minor Character C!"

…………

…………

Those powerful guilds kept watching while secretly paying attention to the reaction of the other guilds, like they were waiting for the right opportunity.

Whoever came first would be jumped on by everyone.

The price climbed at a moderate pace as countless people waited for their chance to move, as an invisible war started to ferment.

"God, people are actually willing to spend over five hundred thousand on a virtual item.  Those rich people really are crazy."  In the Heavenly Dragon Square, there was a player that was shocked by the auction price.

In real life, he was just a white collared worker that many people envied.  But for people to spend gold coins equal to years of his salary for something in the game, it already surpassed what he could comprehend.

This was what countless other players also thought.

"Two million!  Weeping Blood Rebirth, Nameless Weeping Blood!"  A soft voice disrupted the rhythm of the auction.

Hua.

Whether it was in the auction hall or the Heavenly Dragon Square, the players fell into an uproar.

"Damn, going from five hundred and fifty thousand to two million, is this a mistake!"

"Is there something wrong with this person?"

"Two…...Two million?  Someone made a bid for two million?  Am I dreaming?"

In the auction hall, countless eyes looked over at the inconspicuous position in the back.

A handsome man put down the sign in his hand with an indifferent look.

Seeing this person's features, Feng Xiao's pupils shrank and he released a terrifying look.

Nameless Weeping Blood accepted all these gazes without an expression.  Since no one was willing to go first, then he would take a lead.  Watching these boring people play is just a waste of my time.

Weeping Blood Rebirth!  The countless large guild bosses remembered this name.

"Three million!  Wild Demon Wolf!"

"Humph!  Three million and five hundred thousand, Heavenly Demon Wind Clouds!"

"What……"

"Damn!"

"Crazy…..These rich people are crazy……"

Countless shocked gasps rang out and many players were so shocked that they forgot to breath.

Some rich people, was there something wrong with them?  Over three million for something in the game?  Am I crazy or are they crazy?

"Five million!  Soul Destroyer."

Hua!

The hearts of countless players dropped down.

"Five million and five hundred thousand, Wild Demon Wolf!"  Wild Demon Wolf gritted his teeth as he sent out all his gold coins.

"Fourth, immediately have the reserves exchange gold coins.  The competition is more intense than I thought, it's a good thing I made preparations."  Wild Demon Wolf fiercely said, as he didn't forget to have a proud tone in his voice.

"Five million and eight hundred thousand, Heavenly Demon Wind Clouds!"  Heavenly Demon Wind Clouds' heart was also restless because he never thought that the price would climb this high.

"Young master, the first place in the money ranking has surpassed fifteen million.  It seems to be the Maple Leaf Guild."  Heavenly Demon Shadow suddenly noticed the change with the money ranking and quickly reported to Heavenly Demon Wind Clouds.

"When did it happen?"  Heavenly Demon Wind Clouds' face turned dark.

"Less than a minute ago."

"Humph, immediately have someone exchange another twenty million!  Quickly!"

"But young master, it'll take time to exchange.  It'll be impossible to exchange that much in a short period of time….."

"Then just five million, I definitely do not believe anyone will pay more than ten million unless that person is crazy!"

The other guilds were all doing the same.

"Five million and nine hundred thousand, Nameless Weeping Blood!"

"Five million nine hundred and fifty thousand, Soul Destroyer!"

The large guilds all began delaying their bids.  One was that because the price was already close to the limit of what they had and the second was because they needed time to exchange for gold coins.

"Seven million!  Maple Leaf Guild!"  Maple Leaf Roaring Waves finally made his move, giving  price that shocked everyone.

"Seven million going once."  When the crowd went silent, Maniac finally had a chance to speak.

No one responded and many people's hands were covered in cold sweat.

"Seven million going twice."

No one responded still.

"Seven million……"

"Seven million and two hundred thousand, Heavenly Demon Wind Clouds."  When everyone thought that the Guild Formation Token would fall in the hands of the Maple Leaf Guild, Heavenly Demon Wind Clouds offered an even higher price.

"Boss, you're rich!"  Xiao Tian said, this price had even gone past his expectations.

"Pay attention to the changes in the money rankings."  Feng Xiao wasn't that surprised, as he secretly assessed the layouts and power of the large guilds.

At the same time, he had been paying attention to the large changes with the money ranking.  Each guild kept increasing by two-three million without stop.

In order to stop cheating, the bidding system didn't allow a player to call out an amount higher than what they had.

"Seven million and five hundred thousand, Seductive Rainbow."  A fairy like voice came from room 20, just like the sound of nature.  Everyone who heard that sound felt a feeling that they couldn't stop from the bottom of their hearts, even the noisy Heavenly Dragon Square fell silent.

"It's Seductive Rainbow, it's the number one goddess and the only girl in the level ranking, Seductive Rainbow!"

This shocked cry awakened everyone and everyone instantly went wild.  They all struggled to take a look at the most beautiful girl in the Chinese Server.

It was a pity that room 20 was tightly shut and they could only vaguely see a figure.

Feng Xiao was surprised.  This voice was a bit familiar, like he had heard it before.

Maple Leaf Roaring Waves' hand stopped as it came up.

"Big brother, what do we do?  Do we compete with her?"  Maple Leaf Roaring Waves revealed a bitter smile.

"No!  No one is allowed to compete with her!"  Awe Inspiring Maple Leaves didn't even speak before Blue Starred Maple Leaf firmly shook her head.  There was a clear threatening look in her eyes.

"Ai, she really did come.  Forget it, we won't follow when she bids, our family has let her down too much."

Maple Leaf Roaring Waves nodded, not showing any dissatisfaction at all.
