Beast Taming Patrol

Lu Ziye's eyes lit up, and he chuckled right away, "Good brother!"

The three of them chatted quietly while paying attention to the ongoing auctions.

However, until the auction ended, they still hadn't encountered anything they really wanted.

An eighth-grade resource that Lin Su had been eagerly awaiting did appear once, but it was of the wood type, which neither he nor Yan Susen could use.

Soon after the auction ended, the second phase of the auction event began.

This was initiated by powerful individuals expressing their needs one by one to see if anyone else had the items they required for sale.

This was exactly the moment Lin Su had been looking forward to.

Without any hesitation, as soon as the second phase began, he quickly stood up.

After Lin Su stood up, the others in the field quickly quieted down.

This one, recently in the Battlefield of the Proud, had been very prominent.

"I need eighth-grade resources," Lin Su cleared his throat and spoke calmly, "Ice, Spirit, or Dark types are all acceptable, to be purchased with Mixed Element Stones. If you wish to barter, as long as I have it, we can discuss."

Eighth-grade resources.

The crowd quickly fell silent again.

These items were not of low value.

The value of eighth-grade resources was comparable to that of Ninth Grade martial techniques. The one that was sold just now had exchanged for a full three hundred thousand Mixed Element Stones.

However, thinking of a certain rumor about Lin Su, understanding flickered in their eyes.

It was said that this guy had boldly offered his secret technique of merging himself with his pet beast, selling it for ten thousand Mixed Element Stones each, and had already earned millions of Mixed Element Stones.

This guy had plenty of money; for others, eighth-grade resources might be hard to purchase, but for him, it seemed not so difficult.

Of course, that was if someone was willing to sell.

The eyes of the crowd held a bit of craftiness.

Though they traded with each other in the auction house, in the Battlefield of the Proud, they were actually competitors.

Ordinary items were one thing, but such precious items were unlikely to be casually offered for sale.

After Lin Su spoke up, the venue fell into a long silence.

It seemed that no one was willing to offer eighth-grade resources for sale to Lin Su.

On the high platform, Zhou Huaiyu's eyes flashed a hint of amusement, "Time is limited, the last ten seconds; if no one presents the corresponding items, it will be the next person's turn."

After finishing, he leisurely began to count down.

A hint of anger flashed through Lin Su's eyes.

Zhou Huaiyu's statement had no issues, but if someone else were making the request at this moment, he definitely would not act so smugly.

Clearly, this was another deliberate provocation.

But then, the anger in Lin Su's eyes turned to disillusionment.

Even if he was given a bit more time, what use would it be?

Having waited so long already, and with no one willing to stand up, it meant either there truly were no eighth-grade resources that met his needs, or there were, but the owners did not wish to sell to him.

Waiting a bit longer would not change the outcome.

This left him rather disheartened.

In Golden City's auction house, eighth-grade resources were so hard to come by.

Was he to personally hunt beasts with more than ten patterns during the Blood Moon Night, leaving it to chance to see if they might drop eighth-grade resources?

Beasts with ten patterns were equivalent to a martial artist at the tenth level of the Nayuan Realm. With Qiuqiu's cooperation, Lin Su was indeed not incapable of killing them.

But the point was, such beasts with more than ten patterns had never appeared up to now.

Only in the middle to later stages of the opening of the Battlefield of the Proud would such high-level creatures appear.

By that time, it would be too late.

"Six..."

"Five..."

"Four..."

Zhou Huaiyu continued to count down, causing Lin Su's heart to grow increasingly irritated.

On the other side, Qi Yue looked at Lin Su and a hint of a smile flashed in her eyes.

She seemed casual as she gently caressed the Sky Splitting Eagle carrying her.

The Sky Splitting Eagle flapped its slender silvery-white wings twice, churning up ripples of space, and after a soft call, everything returned to normal.

Zhou Huaiyu instinctively glanced at the Sky Splitting Eagle, and after noticing nothing unusual, he continued the countdown.

"Three..."

"Two..."

As the countdown drew closer to the end, his mood improved, the frustration from being thwarted earlier gradually faded.

"One..."

"It's quite a coincidence; Brother Lin needs something that I just happen to have."

Just as Zhou Huaiyu was about to announce Lin Su's time was up, a voice suddenly rang out.

Standing up with a smile on the other side of the room, several forces away from Lin Su's location, was Qi Yu from the Phoenix Flame Empire.

She took out three items teeming with powerful energy fluctuations from her Space Ring, "How about these three items?"

The entire venue was covered by a storm lifted by the overwhelming energy the moment the three Eighth Grade resources appeared.

Such an energy storm was nothing significant for Zhou Huaiyu from the Sky Soaring Realm.

Yet, blowing across his face, it made him feel as if he had been slapped.

His expression suddenly darkened.

But the Phoenix Flame Empire hadn't broken any rules, so he couldn't really say anything.

Wait a second… Phoenix Flame Empire?

Zhou Huaiyu swiftly turned his head to look at the woman beside him who was maintaining a tranquil smile.

The Phoenix Flame Empire is directly under the Immortal Phoenix Sect, right?

And…

Zhou Huaiyu's eyes narrowed slightly, "Disciple Sister Qi Yue, seems to hail from the Phoenix Flame Empire, doesn't she?"

"Not just that." Qi Yue's smile grew even brighter, "The one who stood up is actually my good-for-nothing younger sister."

She looked at Zhou Huaiyu with a gleaming eye, her meaning very clear.

I'm telling you openly there's a problem, what can you do about it?

Do you have evidence?

Even if you have evidence…

Can you defeat me?

Zhou Huaiyu's expression fluctuated.

Finally, he clenched his teeth and spoke with a forced smile, "That really is quite a coincidence…"

Hold back, don't get provoked!

The other party only had one magical creature by her side, yet at that moment he had distinctly felt three powerful auras locking onto him.

This woman…

He couldn't defeat her.

The subtle confrontation between the two senior disciples went completely unnoticed by Lin Su.

At the moment the three Eighth Grade resources appeared, Qiuqiu and Gui's voices rang out simultaneously.

"Meow! (｡✪ω✪｡)" (Ice and Spirit types!)

"Caw! (｡✪‿✪｡)" (Dark type!)

The three Eighth Grade resources he had just mentioned actually possessed all three attributes he talked about.

How could it be such a coincidence.

Lin Su looked deeply at Qi Yu, "I want them all, what do you want in exchange?"

"These resources just happen to be ones our Phoenix Flame Empire doesn't need." Ignoring the longing looks from her colleagues behind, Qi Yu smiled lightly, "So the price... How about 200,000 Mixed Element Stones each?"

Lin Su fell silent.

Three Eighth Grade resources, 600,000 Mixed Element Stones.

The Mixed Element Stones that Qi Yu had given him were exactly 600,000.
