Douluo Continent: A new system every month, starting by tricking Tang San.

Chapter 120 Ever since Tang San became Yu Xiaogang's disciple, he hasn't had a single good day!

There was still at least half an hour before the auction began.

But at least half of the seats around were already occupied.

Yu Xiaogang's gaze fell on the auction stage.

Staff have already begun preparing the items that will be needed in a short time.

He casually glanced at Tang San, who was looking around curiously beside him.

Yu Xiaogang couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

Since he became my disciple.

Tang San could be said to have never had a single good day.

Now that I have money, I can finally make it up to him.

His budget was very generous.

According to some intelligence, the black market auction house is preparing to auction items that can enhance soul power.

It seems to be some kind of elixir or elixir.

Moreover, each one is quite expensive.

Yu Xiaogang guarantees he'll bid on one.

If possible, two would be best.

We can try for three.

One of these can ensure that Tang San's soul power increases by one level directly.

However, the best time is when Tang San cultivates and breaks through to level 29.

Then, after taking the medicine, he broke through to level 30 in one fell swoop.

But Tang San's current condition is not very good.

If one fails to break through to level 29.

Even with the medicine, it's still not as fast as hunting soul beasts.

Therefore, getting two is the safest option.

At this moment, Tang San was still observing the surrounding arrangements.

The seats around the auction stage were also different.

The three rows of seats closest to the stage are red and radiate outwards.

Then, in order, black, purple, yellow, and white.

It is clearly set according to different levels of bidders.

The maids who had greeted them before had told them that.

The innermost red seats are accessed through a special passage.

Moreover, they have dedicated security personnel for protection.

That's the so-called million-dollar VIP area.

Moreover, only people with status and position can obtain the status of red VIP.

The black seats surrounding the perimeter are the standard VIP area for million-dollar guests.

Anyone with money can get in.

It belongs to the next level of black VIPs.

Further out, the purple ones are the 500,000-level purple VIPs.

Yellow indicates a regular VIP at the 100,000 level.

The outermost white seats are also the largest, and are for the most ordinary VIPs.

The waiter just led Tang San and Yu Xiaogang to the white area.

This indicates that the two people are free to choose.

This is not because Yu Xiaogang is currently unable to go forward.

But even the VIP seats in front of him cost money.

The items being auctioned wouldn't be cheap, so he tried his best to save money.

It would be bad if something went wrong.

But the waiter wasn't enthusiastic at all.

They simply led them to their seats in a very professional manner.

There wasn't even the professional smile they used when greeting the maids.

"Is this how the waiter treats people?"

Yu Xiaogang's face immediately fell.

Labor and management are the customers.

The customer is king!

Yu Xiaogang was clearly very dissatisfied with how a mere maid treated him.

No matter what, he was a VIP at this black market auction.

"All the waiters here are like this, it's not targeting you specifically."

Just then, a somewhat hoarse voice came from the side.

Tang San and Yu Xiaogang turned their heads to look.

All that could be seen was a mysterious figure completely concealed in a gray cloak.

The facial features were not clearly visible.

Even the voice seemed to be masked.

As expected, the people in the black market were all very well disguised.

The way they, master and apprentice, swaggered around so openly and ostentatiously.

Not really.

Fortunately, she still had the mask provided by the auction house on her face.

Otherwise, I would really feel a little guilty.

Tang San, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but ask,

"Is it always like this? Why?"

The old man in the gray robe smiled.

"These waiters themselves belong to the auction house."

"Including their lives."

"They were all commoner women who were bought at black market auctions when they were very young."

"They are not only the service staff here, but also part of the auction."

"They can be bought and sold if someone is willing to pay."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang's eyes lit up.

If we could get two of them, wouldn't that be heavenly?

Tang San, on the other hand, seemed somewhat surprised.

"Wouldn't that turn us into slaves?"

"But didn't the two great empires prohibit the slave trade?"

The middle-aged man smiled indifferently, his tone full of disdain.

"Don't forget, this is a black market auction!"

"Let alone slaves, there's nothing we wouldn't sell here."

"Those maids no longer have hearts of their own."

"They can't even decide their own fate."

All they could do was obey.

Just then, Yu Xiaogang asked a question, seemingly lost in thought.

"So, how much do they cost each?"

The middle-aged man saw through Yu Xiaogang's thoughts.

"Do you want to buy them and then give them their freedom?"

"That's just another tragedy."

Upon hearing this, Yu Xiaogang immediately felt somewhat embarrassed.

He was actually checking to see if there was anything good.

He could buy it and have fun with it.

The old man in the gray robe had clearly misunderstood Yu Xiaogang's meaning.

But he didn't intend to discuss such an embarrassing matter any further.

He immediately shut his mouth.

To everyone's surprise, Yu Xiaogang didn't say anything more.

The gray-robed elder, thinking he had guessed correctly, continued speaking.

"These waiters have no survival skills other than serving men."

"Even if you buy them, with their looks, they will still end up in a man's arms in the end."

"Their fate may be even more tragic."

"Moreover, each of them costs as much as 50,000 gold soul coins."

"They cost ten times more than the highest-class courtesans, and not just anyone is willing to spend the money to buy them."

50,000 Gold Soul Coins?

Upon hearing this price...

Yu Xiaogang, who had been eager to try, immediately lost interest.

With that money, he could have lived a life of luxury countless times over.

Neither of them spoke further after that point.

At the same time, they turned their attention to the auction stage.

For the next half hour, the seats around the auction house were also filled.

"Welcome everyone to today's Soto City Auction!"

"Without further ado, the auction is about to begin!"

As soon as the time was up, the host immediately announced the start of the auction.

There wasn't a single unnecessary or fancy introduction.

Tang San then noticed.

Next to each seat, there is a dedicated call button.

There are four different buttons on it: one hundred, one thousand, ten thousand, and one hundred thousand.

This represents the price for each additional payment.

In just ten minutes, three items were successfully traded.

Each item easily exceeded 10,000 gold soul coins in price.

Just then, the host on the stage picked up the megaphone.

Then, with a smile on his face, he said to the bidders,

"Next, we will be auctioning a rare and precious item."

"Attention to those interested."

"Especially male VIPs."

Upon hearing the second half of the sentence, Yu Xiaogang and Tang San's attention was instantly drawn.

Then they stared intently at the auction stage.

What can men possibly like?

Money and beautiful women.

The money will definitely not be auctioned off.

That means there's only one possibility!
