71: Military card requirements
The price of the Skill Card [Golden Light Sword Qi] was not very high, and Mu Qianshan successfully bid for it with ten lower-grade star spirit stones.
Seeing this, Jiang Yuan also felt a stir.
Is that all?
I can do that too!
I guess I'm considered a petty bourgeois now.
However, the next few white-grade cards were not what Jiang Yuan needed.
So Jiang Yuan was not in a hurry to make a move.
Until the auction entered the blue-grade cards.
"The first blue-grade weapon card, Soul Striking Bell, starting bid fifteen lower-grade star spirit stones, each bid must not be less than one lower-grade star spirit stone."
As soon as the host finished speaking, Jiang Yuan unhesitatingly pressed the button to bid one lower-grade star spirit stone.
"Box 31 bids one lower-grade star spirit stone!"
"Card creation or...?"
Seeing Jiang Yuan bid, Mu Qianshan also asked him curiously.
"Card creation, but I don't need it for now."
The Soul Striking Bell can be used to create the magic treasure Soul-Shattering Bell.
Of course, not now.
There are too many cards to create right now.
These past two days, as soon as his spiritual power recovered, he started creating cards, and finally completed most of the order cards.
He hadn't even had time to create the Earth Movement Technique and his mount that he had planned.
At the very least, these two cards must be created before the start of the martial arts trial.
As for bidding on this.
Besides being able to create the Soul-Shattering Bell, the most important point was that Jiang Yuan wanted to experience the feeling of bidding.
While Jiang Yuan and Mu Qianshan were talking, the Soul Striking Bell quickly surpassed twenty lower-grade star spirit stones.
Jiang Yuan didn't care; he still had other cards he was interested in later.
"Not going to take it?"
"There's more later, what's the hurry?"
After learning that his assets could also participate in the auction, Jiang Yuan became thoroughly excited.
The military personnel auctioning on stage did not waste words, so the progress was very fast.
"Next is item number fifty-seven, a blue-grade material card, Flying Cloud Demon, starting bid twenty lower-grade star spirit stones, each bid one."
As soon as the host finished speaking, Jiang Yuan chose to bid again.
"Is this for card creation?"
Mu Qianshan was a bit confused, as it was called a material card, but it was actually just the corpse of a Flying Cloud Demon.
Something that had already been looted, apart from its flesh and bones, was basically useless and could only be used for card creation.
However, what kind of card would require the corpse of a Flying Cloud Demon?
Mu Qianshan, who couldn't create cards, couldn't figure it out.
"Of course, you'll know later."
Seeing that someone had increased the bid, Jiang Yuan chose to increase it again.
This concerned his future mount!
Whether he could gallop in the wild depended on this!
Fortunately, not many people were bidding, and in the end, only one person was competing with Jiang Yuan.
After Jiang Yuan raised the price to twenty-seven lower-grade star spirit stones, that person finally fell silent.
"Congratulations to Box 31, the next item, item number fifty-eight is..."
The auction continued, and after Mu Qianshan bid for a few Skill Cards, Jiang Yuan also acquired another blue-grade card he was interested in.
Next was the most important auction of purple-grade cards.
"The upcoming auction for purple-grade cards has a requirement: everyone needs to move to the small hall. The auction rule is card creation."
"What does that mean?"
Jiang Yuan was stunned and turned to look at Mu Qianshan, but Mu Qianshan showed a look of sudden realization.
"So that's it, no wonder."
Mu Qianshan smiled and then explained to Jiang Yuan.
"It's like this: sometimes someone needs a Card Creator to create a card, and because they can't find a suitable Card Creator immediately, they choose to use this auction method to gather Card Creators."
"And those ten purple-grade cards, though called auction items, are actually rewards after a Card Creator is selected."
"Of course, if in the end there is no suitable or successful Card Creator who meets the requirements, then these auction items will be re-auctioned among the Card Creators."
"I see."
Jiang Yuan understood. This was like a bidding process?
Probably something like that.
"Let's go, let's go take a look. Aren't you a Card Creator too?"
"Ah, can I do it?"
Jiang Yuan was a little nervous, as he hadn't yet interacted with Card Creators of this world.
"Whether you can or not, let's go see. Even if you're not a Card Creator, you can still go."
"Why? Isn't it just for Card Creators?"
"There are always people who are interested in a certain auction item but aren't Card Creators themselves. They will also go, and if no one succeeds, the items will be re-auctioned, and then they can make their move."
Mu Qianshan explained, "Even if someone succeeds, they can also go directly and discuss with the successful person whether they can buy the card they are interested in."
"Oh, I see."
Jiang Yuan nodded, not expecting an auction to have so many twists and turns.
After leaving the private room, the two were quickly led by a service staff member to a small hall.
The small hall was relatively simple, just a stage, and in front of the stage were some tables and chairs.
"If everyone is face to face, will there be any conflicts?" Jiang Yuan was a little excited.
He wondered if the famous auction plot from fantasy novels would happen here.
Bidding for items, the protagonist showing off and slapping faces, and then the face-slapped person, unable to bear it, calls their elders, only for the elders to also be shown off against and have their faces slapped.
Tsk tsk, close-up observation.
Just thinking about it made him excited!
Mu Qianshan looked at Jiang Yuan strangely, not understanding what he was so excited about.
"How could that happen? Everyone here is a person of standing; how could they conflict over this?"
Mu Qianshan shook his head, "The greatest possibility of conflict would probably be debates among the various Card Creators."
"Huh?"
Jiang Yuan was a little disappointed. What kind of show was this?
However, if there was a protagonist in this world, it might be different, right?
After all, aren't the protagonists always showing off and slapping the faces of those important figures?
Thinking of this, Jiang Yuan became excited again, constantly turning his head to observe who looked like a protagonist.
After more than twenty people gradually arrived in the small hall, no one else came in.
At this moment, a middle-aged man in a military uniform also walked onto the stage.
"Holy crap, the military commander himself is here!"
Mu Qianshan exclaimed when he saw the military commander on stage, and quickly whispered to Jiang Yuan, "It seems the military takes this very seriously."
"Military commander?"
Jiang Yuan was also stunned. Even if he didn't know the difference between this world's military commander and the military commander of his previous world.
But judging from Mu Qianshan's reaction, this military commander's position was definitely not low.
"Without further ado, this auction is indeed held because we need a card."
The military commander glanced at Mu Qianshan and Jiang Yuan, who were whispering below, and a hint of surprise appeared in his eyes.
How did they get here too?
However, thinking about Jiang Yuan creating cards on the spot in the Dongtian Simulation League, the military commander understood.
"Without further ado, our requirement this time is for a new Skill Card of white grade, not exceeding blue grade."
