I haven't decided on a name for my Pokémon trainer yet.

How could this be? It shouldn't be like this! Why?

Ye Feng was filled with a million questions.

If this really is Hoopa's scooping ring... this thing shouldn't leave Hoopa, right?

Like Alakazam's spoon... Although it looks like a spoon, it is actually a Pokémon tool that coexists with Alakazam and is not easily dropped.

Although it features a curved spoon prop, it's not actually the same thing as what Alakazam holds; it's not an item left behind after Alakazam's death...

How did this ring end up at an auction? Is it just something similar, or...?

What happened to Hoopa, the super demon god who was supposed to be sealed away?

Chapter 283 The auction begins

As Ye Feng pondered whether the ring was indeed Hupa's "fishing ring," the auction officially began.

The first item presented was a top-quality metallic coating.

There are quite a few applications for metal coatings.

First and foremost, the most well-known and important item is the evolution item needed for Onix to evolve into Steelix and Scizor to evolve into Scizor.

Secondly, equipping a Pokémon with this item can increase the power of Steel-type moves;

Finally, the lesser-known, and most luxurious, use is to allow Steel-type Pokémon to absorb it directly, which can enhance the Pokémon's control over Steel-type energy.

Of course, ordinary metal coatings wouldn't be brought to an auction.

The metallic coating, as an evolution item, does not affect the quality of the evolved Pokémon. It only slightly affects the initial potential of the evolved Pokémon. Of course, this can be compensated for by spending more time training, so it is not important.

The reason this item was able to be brought to the auction is because the metallic coating increases the power of steel-type moves by an astonishing 25%!

It's worth noting that the typical metal coating boosts performance by 5% to 15%, with occasional boosts of 20%, which is enough to cause a frenzy among trainers. Not to mention this one at the auction, which reached an astonishing 25%.

"I think everyone has seen this metallic coating clearly in the auction brochure. But I still want to introduce it again." The auctioneer was a tall, slender, mature beauty wearing a tight-fitting short dress and long legs wrapped in black stockings. What was most eye-catching were her particularly conspicuous and suffocatingly large breasts under the tight dress.

The magnetic voice excited some of the male trainers present.

"This metallic coating enhances steel-attribute moves by 25%, according to professional assessment!" The mature auctioneer introduced in an excited and enthusiastic tone, her long, slender arms swaying with a wave that caused her chest to ripple, eliciting a low gasp from everyone present, whether they came for the metallic coating or were pleasantly surprised to see the beautiful auctioneer.

"I believe this number needs no further explanation. Everyone present is either a high-level trainer or a successful person with a broad vision."

Therefore, the starting bid is 20!

"Please make your bid!"

As soon as the elegant auctioneer finished speaking, the trainers raised their paddles to bid.

They quickly raised the price of this metallic coating to millions.

After a fierce bidding war, Ye Feng won the bid for the metallic coating for a price in the tens of millions.

Ye Feng's youthful appearance drew attention from those around him, and even the mature female auctioneer took a second look at this young and handsome trainer—the sign Ye Feng was holding indicated that he had entered the auction as a senior trainer.

Ye Feng clicked his tongue in surprise. Although he had never really grasped the concept of money, he knew that tens of millions was already a considerable sum.

And this was only the first item in the auction.

We don't know which number the Heart's Droplet is in, or what price it will fetch.

However, Ye Feng touched his phone—a man with money in his hands is not worried.

Following the metal coating, they went on to bid on several props and resources.

Each one is no less than a metallic coating, and may even be rarer.

It seems that although the S-level secret realm is extremely dangerous, and casualties can occur with the slightest carelessness, the resources that can be obtained are worth the danger.

Ye Feng pondered that once his third Pokémon reached Master-level strength, whether through Mega Evolution or by reaching that level on its own, he would choose an S-rank secret realm to explore.

Midway through, Ye Feng filmed a few more props.

A dragon tooth, while not as valuable as the dragon scale given by Dragonite, is still a rare and valuable resource that can be used by Kingdra.

The Volcanic Rock is a rock containing abundant fire-attribute energy, obtained from a volcano that has recently erupted. It is given to Arcanine.

The cursed doll, like the volcanic rock, is an item containing ghost-type energy; it's used by Gengar.

A Lucky Egg, like Alakazam's Spoon, is an extremely rare companion item for Pokémon. However, because its use is unclear, although it is rare, it doesn't fetch a high price. Ye Feng plans to give it to Togekiss. Judging from the name, it should be related to luck. Ye Feng thinks that Togekiss's lucky nature will play an unexpected role someday.

The Vajra Gauntlet is an item that resembles a gauntlet. When used by a Pokémon, it can increase its power. It can be used on Gyarados.

Ye Feng waited for a long time, but still couldn't find a suitable item to use with Gardevoir.

Ye Feng could only place his hopes on the Heart Drop.

After much anticipation, the heart-shaped water droplet that Ye Feng cared about most finally took the stage.

Ye Feng glanced at his bank account and realized that his assets had decreased by a single digit without him noticing.

Ye Feng remained silent for a few seconds before sending a text message to his father.

"Dad, is your card really unlimited?" Ye Feng asked. He had never spent money so lavishly before, so the card Ye Hongsheng gave him hadn't been particularly powerful when he used it before.

"Of course, what's up? Do you want to buy something?" Ye Hongsheng replied quickly.

"Yes, I'm going to buy a few props at the auction."

"Don't you have enough money yourself?" Ye Hongsheng asked doubtfully, knowing that Ye Feng had a lot of money on his own card.

"Uh, I accidentally spent too much just now. I'm afraid I won't have enough later." Ye Feng scratched his cheek. Because he had no concept of money and hated trouble, he never thought before raising the price.

Some people didn't believe Ye Feng was that rich and challenged him, but Ye Feng raised his paddle without hesitation. Later, he even stopped bidding against him, which made others afraid to compete with him—not because he didn't have the money, but because it was unnecessary.

The items for Togekiss and Gyarados were purchased at a pretty low price.

"No problem, use it as you like. I'll explain in detail when you get back," Ye Hongsheng replied. It wasn't clear in a text message, and Ye Feng wasn't available to make a phone call right now.

However, since her son never spent money recklessly, and she figured he was buying very important props this time, she readily agreed.

"Okay!" Ye Feng replied happily.

With his father backing him up, Ye Feng wasn't worried at all.

Soon, the Heart Drop was lifted up, and the trainers began to discuss it animatedly.

"Everyone's so excited, it seems you all understand the function of this Heart Drop. But I still have to say something," the mature auctioneer said, "the Heart Drop is the first item to appear that can simultaneously enhance the power of two attribute moves."

"Psychic and Dragon attributes are both rare and powerful attributes. The Heart Drop amplifies them by an astonishing 20%!!"

"Its rarity speaks for itself, starting bid is one million!"

Chapter 284 Harvesting the Heart Drop and the Mysterious Ring

No sooner had the elegant auctioneer finished speaking than someone raised their paddle.

Soon, one bidder after another began to place their bids.

The price of Heart Drops was quickly raised to a higher level than that of the previous items.

Ye Feng thought to himself, although there aren't many Psychic and Dragon-type trainers, those who can raise these two types of Pokémon as their main Pokémon are undoubtedly powerful and wealthy trainers, and none of them are short of money.

Therefore, their bidding momentum was in no way inferior to Ye Feng's.

The price rose rapidly, and the number of bidders gradually decreased.

Ultimately, the price of Heart Drop stopped at a shockingly high number.

"Anyone else bidding?" the mature female auctioneer asked.

Ye Feng immediately raised his sign.

The reason he didn't participate earlier was because he knew the price of Heart Drops wouldn't be low, and to avoid trouble, he waited until the very end.

Ye Feng's raised paddle immediately attracted everyone's attention, especially the trainer who made the final bid.

Ye Feng turned his head and gave her an awkward smile.

The trainer was none other than Gu Ruyun.

"Ye Feng!!" Gu Ruyun gritted her teeth, her fist hardening.

Gu Ruyun spotted Ye Feng while he was photographing the metal coating.

She came here for the Heart Drop, and seeing Ye Feng here, she had a bad feeling—Ye Feng's Gardevoir and Kingdra could both use the Heart Drop, and he would probably become her biggest competitor.

And that's exactly what happened.

This guy not only bullied my Garchomp with his Fairy-type Gardevoir, but now he's trying to steal my items? This is too much!

Gu Ruyun challenged Ye Feng to many battles, but unfortunately, no matter how hard her Garchomp tried, it couldn't beat Gardevoir.

So Gu Ruyun went to Gu Yangzhou every day, using both coaxing and threats to get her grandfather to prioritize finding the Mega Stone for Garchomp.

Unfortunately, Mega Stones aren't something you can just find easily, and Gu Yangzhou had no choice but to keep giving his granddaughter perfunctory (not really) reassurances.

Gu Ruyun thought that once Garchomp could Mega Evolve, it would definitely be able to crush Gardevoir.

Unfortunately, she seems to have forgotten that Gardevoir is the first Pokémon to master Mega Evolution.

No matter how hard Garchomp tries, it can no longer catch up with Gardevoir in this aspect.

It seems that Gu Ruyun is destined to be suppressed by Ye Feng—not in that sense, those who think otherwise should go stand in the corner.
