Chapter 289: Next Auction

"Sorry?" Han Jing was caught off guard a little and immediately started running his little minds regarding the different scenarios that might come true.

\'Does he have more pills to sell? I got a 3% commission from everything I sold today. Since he was the highest, I got above 2 True spirit stones from his alone. If he is willing to sell more of those pills then..\' His mind started running wild.

"Um… fellow Daoist?" Alex called.

"Uh. Uh… yes?" Han Jing answered.

"About the next auction, can you tell me a little about it," Alex asked.

"Um… Fellow Daoist, do you have more pills to sell?" Han Jing asked.

"Sorry? No, I don\'t. I was just thinking of taking part in the next auction. So I was wondering, is it still taking place every day? When will it take place tomorrow?" Alex asked.

"Oh, fellow Daoist, you meant to ask that," Han Jing said in a dejected voice. He could practically hear his wild daydreams shatter around him. Still, he was professional and answered professionally.

"No, we do not have any auctions planned for tomorrow. Since Thursday is a break from the competition, the auction house is organizing an auction as big as the bi-annual auctions it has every 6 months. That will be the final auction for a few days," Han Jing said.

"Thus, if you wish to take part in the auction, I suggest you either take part in Thursday\'s auction at 10 am, or the one that takes place right after the competition ends," Han Jing said.

"After the competition ends? When is that?" Alex asked.

"Umm… we have no idea fellow Daoist. You must know too that the final competitions can sometimes last for days. So, the very next day after the end of the competition will be another auction held by the auction house. However, that is too far away, so I suggest you join the auction for the day after tomorrow," Han Jing replied.

Alex thought for a second and said, "Very well. Thank you for the information. I will take my leave now."

"Umm… Fellow Daoist, Should I save a VIP room for you?" Han Jing asked.

Alex thought for a bit and agreed. He knew there were VVIP rooms as well, but since he was a single person a VIP room alone would suffice him.

Alex thanked Han Jing and left the auction house. He looked at the time and realized that it was around 5 pm, so he didn\'t dilly dally and went straight back to the hotel.

He reached the hotel 15 minutes later and returned back to his room.

"Oh, brother Yu, you are back," Wan Li said, while constantly writing on a new book. He had probably learned a lot of new things and he was trying to write them down before he would forget them.

Alex really wanted to give him a flower right away but was still a little hesitant. It was going to take him a while to trust anyone on the same level in the game again.

"Yes, I\'m back. You guys returned quite early," Alex said.

"Well, I didn\'t see any point, hehe. It\'s not like I could remember anything by just staying there. So I decided to come as quickly as I could and start writing the stuff down," Wan Li said.

"I see. Then continue writing Brother Wan, I will try to recall what I read as well," Alex said and went to sit on the bed.

Finally, he was free enough to revise everything he learned today.

One couldn\'t use more than 3 Spirit Cleansing lilies at once. That meant the remaining 3 of his lilies would be useless until he found other usages for it.

The Yang jades were just simple jades that found a concentrated spot of Yang energy and absorbed it. That didn\'t explain why they were available in the grassland of the forbidden fields, but Alex would find the answer later on. Especially, regarding the thing that attracted him to the north of the desert.

Perhaps the information he wasn\'t expecting to learn was about how Fu Qiong conquered the Shattered Kingdoms and combined them to form the Crimson Empire. Also, the fact that he was from beyond the Southern Forest was something Alex was still curious about.

He wanted to know how one could traverse in and out of the crimson empire. If he could do that, then maybe he could go out and see the true continent.

The outside world knew the secrets to the saint realm, he could perhaps learn those too.

\'That guy was from outside the Crimson Empire too, wasn\'t he?\' Alex thought as he took out the one talisman he had acquired from the guy.

There were a few things that he had never revealed to even his masters, to who he revealed everything. One of those things was the Ebony Corundum Stiletto.

Another thing was this talisman that he got from the man. The sword he had hidden before they even took him as a disciple so he never revealed it to them afterward, especially because he wasn\'t sure they would let him keep such a strong sword.

The talisman, however, he wasn\'t sure why he was hiding it. Still, he had kept it and tried to understand what it was but was still unable to.

\'Maybe I will know what this is after I reach the other side,\' he thought.

He was still a little disappointed that he didn\'t learn anything regarding his body, but he would probably have to leave the crimson empire for that too.

At least the trip to the library was partially successful, so he was quite happy. He went on to recollect what else he had learned from his trip to the library and tried to learn it.

He didn\'t bother with the formation stuff for now as that would take truly too long for him. He learned everything else he could for the next 30 minutes or so until there was a knock on his door.

It was time for the next meeting.
