All-People Beast Taming: I Can See the Evolution Path.

Chapter 89 Yuan Stone

In the void, two figures were moving forward at high speed.

However, what's strange is that one of the figures seems to be being carried along by another person!

"Master, can you put me down? I'm not myself; I can't walk in the void!"

Ye Fan, who was being held in Long Tianqiong's hands, said with a frustrated expression.

"Hehe!!! Isn't it because I was worried I wouldn't make it to the auction?"

Upon hearing Long Tianqiong's reply, Ye Fan was speechless and said, "Then why didn't you leave earlier yesterday? Otherwise, would things have turned out like this?"

This morning, he had just gotten up when Long Tianqiong abruptly urged him to set off.

The reason is simple: Long Tianqiong felt that Ye Fan might not make it to the auction at his current speed, so he decided to carry him himself to avoid any mishaps.

"Uh, you think I wanted to drag you along? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have bothered getting involved in this mess!"

"."

After hearing Long Tianqiong's words, Ye Fan was speechless!

For some reason, Ye Fan felt an urge to cry when he heard those words.

He, a dignified nine-star Spirit King, has actually been reduced to being carried around by others. If this gets out, what will become of him?

"Don't be discouraged! We're almost there!"

As soon as Long Tianqiong finished speaking, Ye Fan saw a crystal palace floating above a starry sky.

The Crystal Palace, towering ten thousand feet high, resembles a giant crystal sculpture, radiating a pale blue light.

Upon seeing this, Ye Fan couldn't help but exclaim, "Master, is this the Starry Sky Auction you mentioned? It looks quite beautiful!"

Upon hearing this, Long Tianqiong ignored him and flew straight towards the Crystal Palace.

Before long, the two arrived at the entrance of the Crystal Palace.

Upon seeing this, the guards at the gate quickly opened the gate for them.

As soon as Ye Fan and his companion entered, a hostess came over.

"Welcome! Do you two have a Starry Sky Card?"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan was at a loss when Long Tianqiong took out a golden card and showed it to him.

"Oh, so you're gold card members! I'm so sorry, I didn't take good care of you earlier! Please come with me!"

Upon seeing the card, the hostess bowed respectfully and apologized.

"Um!"

Upon hearing this, Long Tianqiong nodded slightly in acknowledgment.

Seeing this, the hostess turned around and led the two towards a private room on the third floor of the Crystal Palace.

After entering a private room, Long Tianqiong gestured for the hostess to leave.

After she left, Ye Fan finally asked the question that had been on his mind.

"Master, what did you just take out? Why was she so respectful to us after seeing that gold card?"

Upon hearing this, Long Tianqiong smiled and explained, "That gold card is equivalent to an identity card in our world! Everyone who enters the Starry Sky Auction needs to get one! There are five levels of Starry Sky Cards: Black Card, Silver Card, Gold Card, Purple Gold Card, and Crystal Card! To reach the next level, you need to spend a certain amount! And each level of Starry Sky Card offers different benefits! For example, my gold card only allows me to enter the private rooms on the third floor. Also, I get a 30% discount when buying and selling things privately within the auction! When we leave, you can ask her to get you one. That way, you won't be turned away next time you come alone!"

"Uh, okay! Master, is the black card free to apply for?"

"I think you're dreaming! What do you think sustains such a powerful organization as the Starry Sky Auction House? It's all thanks to the membership fees of newcomers like you and the funds raised from auctioning treasures!"

Hearing this, Ye Fan asked somewhat aggrievedly, "Then how much is their membership fee?"

Upon hearing Ye Fan's question, Long Tianqiong chuckled.

"Hehe!!! It's not expensive at all! Only 100,000 top-grade spirit stones!"

"How much? One hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones!!! Why don't they just rob them?"

Ye Fan was dumbfounded!

One hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones is definitely not a small amount for him!

"What do you know? The Starry Sky Auction is not some random organization! The things here aren't things you can just buy anywhere else! Spending 100,000 top-grade spirit stones to get a Starry Sky Card is still a great deal!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Fan stammered, "But... but I don't have that many spirit stones!"

"Huh? What happened? Didn't I remember Bai Yanpeng compensated you with 100,000 top-grade spirit stones? Could it be that you've spent them all in just six months?"

Hearing Long Tianqiong's question, Ye Fan explained, "No, not at all! Although I spent some, I didn't spend it all! It's just that I gave some to Yunyun, so I don't have that many top-grade spirit stones on me right now!"

"Oh! What a miserable life I have! How did I end up with a disciple like you? Take it!"

After expressing his feelings, Long Tianqiong took out a piece of yellowish-brown stone and handed it to Ye Fan.

"Master, what is this?"

Looking at the stone in his hand, Ye Fan asked in confusion.

This thing looks like a spirit stone, but it doesn't contain a trace of spiritual energy.

However, he sensed a power within it that was even stronger than spiritual energy!

Upon hearing this, Long Tianqiong explained calmly, "This is a Yuan Stone, something used by Divine Realm experts for cultivation! Its function is equivalent to a Spirit Stone! However, Yuan Stones are much more precious than Spirit Stones! This one Yuan Stone is worth a million top-grade Spirit Stones!"

"So precious?"

Upon hearing Long Tianqiong's explanation, Ye Fan's eyes widened in surprise!

He never expected that Long Tianqiong would be so generous! A single spirit stone he casually took out was actually equivalent to one million top-grade spirit stones!

With such arrogance, won't they get struck by lightning?

However, this also made him realize that his master must have been a god-level expert in the past.

Otherwise, how could such a precious elemental stone be taken out so easily?

"Okay, okay, don't be surprised! Remember to pay me back the rest after you get the black card!"

"Well"

Ye Fan was stunned when he heard Long Tianqiong's words.

Sorry, I take back what I just said!

He truly hadn't expected his master to be so stingy! He'd already given it, and now he was thinking of taking it back!

This stingy behavior left Ye Fan feeling somewhat helpless.

His master clearly had abundant resources, yet he refused to let him use them. If he had had enough resources back then, he would have broken through to the Spirit Emperor Realm long ago!

"Okay~"

Seeing Ye Fan looking at him with some resentment, Long Tianqiong smiled and said, "Disciple, don't look at your master like that. I'm doing this for your own good! If I prepare everything for you, what will you learn? You'll be crushed by even the slightest hardship!"

After hearing Long Tianqiong's explanation, Ye Fan fell silent!

He felt that Long Tianqiong's words made a lot of sense.

If I rely on my master from the very beginning, even if I improve my cultivation, I won't be able to withstand any major storms!

After thinking it through, Ye Fan nodded and replied, "I understand!"
