The first round saw more than half of the participants choose to forfeit.

Many people were accompanied by professional Dragon Identifiers, whose judgment was that the civilian spirit egg was not worth pursuing, as entering the next round of exploration would require spending twenty thousand jin.

Even after spending the money, the item might not even become yours!

“Their forfeiture doesn’t necessarily mean that they think the egg is trash,” Luo Shaoyan said. “It’s more that they believe, even if it’s a spirit egg and hatches a highly excellent Juvenile Spirit that can transform into a dragon in a short time, it’s still a very ordinary dragon, not worth the hefty price they would need to compete for it.”

“Yes, this egg seems to have been quite controversial over at the White Heavenly Street,” Zhu Minglang nodded.

“That’s the allure of dragon gambling. Some people believe that this egg will definitely be extraordinary once hatched, while others think it’s just trash. In the end, it depends on who makes it to the last round, whether they will be ridiculed or the center of attention… the outcome will naturally reveal itself after hatching!” Luo Shaoyan said.

They moved into the second round.

Zhu Minglang and Luo Shaoyan both used their Spiritual Sense to perceive the egg in turn.

Zhu Minglang’s Spiritual Sense was stronger and allowed him to see more details, such as a residue of Spirit Frost on the outer membrane of the spirit egg.

Spirit Frost is something that sometimes forms when Spiritual Energy frequents an area and encounters a change in the atmosphere. It generally disappears after a time.

But the Spirit Frost was still present on this egg, indicating that it was indeed born in a place rich in Spiritual Energy and that it was absorbing the Spiritual Rhyme of the world.

Luo Shaoyan’s judgment was correct.

This widely controversial civilian egg was indeed a spirit egg, and the lifeform born from it would definitely be a creature with spirit.

“Will you continue to pursue it, young master?” the maid asked with a warm smile.

“Continue,” Zhu Minglang replied.

“Brother, the price to continue this time is one hundred thousand jin. Are you sure?” Luo Shaoyan said hurriedly.

“How did it get to one hundred thousand?” Zhu Minglang asked, puzzled.

“Young Master Han has raised the stakes. He wants this egg and has increased the bid to make others hesitate and back off,” the maid explained patiently at that moment.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“In every round, you can initiate a stake increase, and if others want to continue, they must spend the same amount of money,” Luo Shaoyan added.

The original continuation price was thirty thousand jin.

Having come this far, Zhu Minglang didn’t want to give up. After all, he wasn’t lacking money at the moment, and he could just play for fun.

But one hundred thousand jin seemed a bit too high.

No wonder this form of dragon gambling can quickly deplete millions of jin. Just a few more rounds, and hundreds of thousands of jin would evaporate, not to mention the final competition.

“So, do I continue or not?” Zhu Minglang asked.

He did have the money, but he wasn’t a professional. Surely he couldn’t just judge the enormous value of the spirit egg based solely on the presence of Spirit Frost.

One hundred thousand jin could buy some young dragons with decent bloodlines.

“It’s up to you to decide on this one. I think it’s worth continuing, but the price to do so is a bit high, and I don’t have that much money,” Luo Shaoyan had already decided to back off.

“Since it’s your first time here, young master, this maid will cover the continuation cost for you this time,” the maid generously offered.

“????” Luo Shaoyan stared at the maid.

Are even maids so rich nowadays?

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

One hundred thousand jin!

Selling themselves many times over wouldn’t be enough to save up that amount, although this maid indeed possessed extraordinary beauty.

Securing a wealthy husband isn’t supposed to be like this!

Zhu Minglang was also taken aback.

Although when he practiced as a Sword Cultivator, people would take the initiative to ingratiate themselves wherever he went, never had a maid been so bold as to throw thousands of jin for him!

“`

A hundred thousand jin is not a trifling matter.

That could support a large group of highly skilled guards.

“Young Master is now being offered a bounty of four million jin, and for a mere hundred thousand jin for a familiar glance, I think it’s quite worth it,” the charming maid said, smiling brightly.

“You recognize me?” Zhu Minglang inquired.

“During the autumn, I traveled to Miao Kingdom and witnessed many of its nobles bidding for Young Master,” the maid continued.

At this moment, the queen of Xia Yu Country noticed the maid chatting with Zhu Minglang and took a few steps closer.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

The maid also paid her respects to her queen, a detail that Zhu Minglang noted.

The queen rolled her eyes at the maid, signaling her not to engage guests in irrelevant conversations at such an occasion.

The maid stuck out her tongue and registered Zhu Minglang for the next round, but did not take any money.

…

“I don’t want to play anymore,” Luo Shaoyan said, looking utterly dejected. He intentionally picked up an impeccably clean plate to use as a mirror, then said with overwhelming bitterness, “Why didn’t my parents give me a face that could bewitch all creation? Being handsome means being loved, being handsome means having a house of gold bestowed upon you.”

“You can touch it in the next round, and then we’ll see,” Zhu Minglang patted Luo Shaoyan and said.

“The next round could cost hundreds of thousands of jin. I don’t have that kind of money, are you sure you want to continue?” Luo Shaoyan asked.

“No problem, consider it a learning experience,” Zhu Minglang had now become quite interested.

He was now eager to find out whether this spirit egg with Spirit Frost was truly extraordinary.

“Awesome!” Luo Shaoyan gave Zhu Minglang a thumbs-up.

Luo Shaoyan brought Zhu Minglang here, in fact, to take part in the cheaper fun, something that could be wrapped up within a hundred thousand jin.

If someone raised the stakes, he would definitely give up, not because he had lesser insight than others, but because he didn’t have that much cash on hand.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

As for this egg, which had sparked considerable controversy among the public, he would have joined the bidding if he had the money. Indeed, it had its extraordinary aspects, though they weren’t easily noticed by the average person.

“If you want to play, then I won’t keep you guessing. This spirit egg is either worthless or of immense value. Not all creatures can absorb spiritual energy before hatching, and some millennia-old demons never absorb the spirit of heaven and earth even at death,” Luo Shaoyan said earnestly.

“Hmm, I’ve seen the Spirit Frost condensed between the outer membrane and the shell,” Zhu Minglang remarked.

“What? How did you see that? I didn’t notice it at all. Is your cultivation base very high??” Luo Shaoyan inquired.

Luo Shaoyan determined it through other means, but the presence of Spirit Frost between the outer membrane and the shell was like counting the fuzz under a fly’s belly!

“It’s definitely higher than yours,” Zhu Minglang stated.

“You have other dragons besides the Green Saint Dragon, right, at Monarch Level??” Luo Shaoyan asked tentatively.

Zhu Minglang smiled enigmatically.

“So you’re a Monarch Level bigshot. I, Luo Shaoyan, am top-notch at identifying dragons, but I sure can miss the mark with people,” Luo Shaoyan said with exaggerated reverence.

“The next round is starting, go and exhibit your egg-touching… ah, forget it, just do your best,” Zhu Minglang said.

“If you have the money, trust my judgment. Today, I will surely make you a fortune!” Luo Shaoyan declared confidently.

“I’m not short on cash.” Zhu Minglang set out on this jaunt intending to pick a juvenile spirit with decent potential to raise.

(vitag.Init = window.vitag.Init || []).push(function(){viAPItag.display(“vi_765923973”)})

“…” Luo Shaoyan picked up the reflective plate again, examining his own face.

No one’s cultivation base was higher than his.

No one was handsomer.

And nobody had more money!

Just what kind of courage had he possessed back at Xuancao Mountain Castle to pretend to be in the same league with them?
