When Pang Sheng saw Mo Tianxing act in such a way, he also followed proper etiquette and welcomed the latter inside.

”Father, I—”

Being cut off in front of a large crowd made Mo Ya feel extremely indignant.

However, he wasn’t a fool.

He knew that right now, in front of everyone, it wasn’t appropriate to contradict his father’s words. So he could only suppress it and follow along inside.

Still, deep in his heart, he silently marked this grievance.

From childhood to now, he had always grown up surrounded by respectful voices.

Within the sect, everyone treated him as the future successor to the Sect Leader.

When speaking to him, they always catered to his whims and flattered him.

But now, to be suddenly treated this way—it would be strange if he could swallow this humiliation.

As for the others present, when they saw both sides choosing to restrain themselves,

They realized there would be no good show to watch, and all dispersed, rushing toward the auction venue.

Inside the auction hall, in a concealed room up high,

Lin Feng was gazing down at the scene below through a one-way crystal panel.

The vast auction hall below had already been flooded with what seemed like an endless stream of people.

A dense sea of heads stretched out as far as the eye could see, almost impossible to find an edge.

However, despite the massive crowd below,

The noise from these people was absorbed by the special stone material of the room and didn’t reach Lin Feng’s ears.

Meanwhile, in the private booths on the second floor of the hall sat several powerful experts or representatives of major forces.

Such as Jia Nan Academy’s Grand Elder Su Qian, the Gold and Silver Elders, the First Elder Fang Yan from Demon Flame Valley—all had come to attend this auction.

These people were mostly divided into three factions.

First, the Black Alliance, formed by the Gold and Silver Elders, who had gathered many forces and experts from the Black-Corner Region.

Most of them were those who had agreed to Han Feng’s plan to invade the Inner Academy and seize the Heavenly Flame.

Second, Jia Nan Academy, along with a few allied factions.

As for the rest, they were neutral parties.

They didn’t want to get involved in the conflict between the first two factions—they only wanted to protect themselves.

Of course, there was also a small group who harbored the idea of profiting from the chaos.

They planned to wait until both sides had fought each other to the point of severe casualties, and then come out to seize territory.

Among this small group was Lin Feng.

Previously, both the Black Alliance and Jia Nan Academy had extended olive branches to him.

However, he hadn’t agreed to either side—he simply watched as the two forces clashed.

Clang!

After a while, a crisp bell rang out within the noisy auction hall.

Under the sound of the bell, the commotion in the auction hall gradually quieted down.

All eyes slowly turned to focus on the auction platform.

At this moment, Lin Feng, who didn’t know when he had left his room,

Suddenly spread a pair of azure wings behind him and flew into the air above the auction stage.

The reason he no longer concealed his presence,

Was because there was simply no point in doing so.

After all, when Xiao Yan stepped into the auction venue, Lin Feng had already sensed the Heavenly Flame aura on him.

That Xiao Yan and his master must’ve sensed the same from him.

Therefore, since he couldn’t hide it, he might as well stand out boldly.

As for the Falling Heart Flame, since he had deliberately suppressed its aura,

And used the Green Lotus Core Flame to mask it, it could still be hidden.

However, with Lin Feng’s appearance, the experts in the second-floor booths were all stunned.

Some even couldn’t help themselves and stood up reflexively, staring in shock at Lin Feng in the sky.

Because they realized—Lin Feng, standing before them, was clearly a Three-Star Dou Huang.

But the powerful pressure radiating from Lin Feng was even stronger than any Four-Star Dou Huang they had ever seen before.

”The Dou Qi density of this Heavenly Treasure Pavilion Master—this old man has never seen anything like it in my entire life,”

In the private room of Jia Nan Academy, Elder Huo stared at the young man in green hovering in the air, speaking in shock.

He had come here just to get a glimpse of a peak seventh-tier pill.

Yet to his surprise, before he even saw the pill, he was nearly stunned speechless by the Pavilion Master of Heavenly Treasure Pavilion.

”Indeed. If this young man doesn’t fall midway, his future achievements will definitely far surpass ours,”

Su Qian narrowed his eyes and stared at the figure in the sky as he spoke slowly.

The reactions in other private rooms were essentially the same—everyone was too shocked to speak.

As for Lin Feng, after sweeping his gaze over the stunned crowd below the stage, he smiled and said,

”I am Lin Feng, Pavilion Master of Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. I’m sure many here do not yet know me—but that’s not a problem. All who come are guests, and Heavenly Treasure Pavilion will naturally treat everyone with respect.”

Though his voice wasn’t loud,

Everyone in the hall could hear it clearly.

Upon hearing him speak, the people below the stage all snapped out of their daze.

Then, most began to respond with polite greetings.

After all, who could say whether they might need the Pavilion Master’s help to refine a pill someday?

So it was best to maintain good relations while they could.

Seeing that he had achieved the effect he wanted, Lin Feng didn’t waste any more time. He opened his mouth and said,

”I believe everyone is already eager to begin, so I won’t delay any longer. However, while everyone here knows the auction rules, let me still remind you—if anyone is foolish enough to cause trouble during the auction, then they’d better be sure they have the strength to back it up.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the space around Lin Feng, with a radius of about thirty meters, suddenly began to ripple.

Immediately after, under the varied expressions of the crowd below, a ring of space imprisonment formed.

The space surrounding Lin Feng was completely sealed off.

”This is... Spatial Restriction!”

Having been Dou Zong experts for decades now, both Mo Tianxing and Su Qian were the first to react, crying out in unison.

As a One-Star Dou Zong, Elder Jin was quick to understand what was happening on stage.

He couldn’t help but leap to his feet, eyes brimming with near-overflowing disbelief.

”A... Dou... Zong... expert!”

Staring at the transparent shield now visible before him, Elder Jin enunciated each word with difficulty.

Ever since advancing to Dou Zong, he had felt his own status rise dramatically.

So he knew very well the kind of deterrent such a powerhouse held in the Black-Corner Region.

Now, with this usually low-profile Heavenly Treasure Pavilion suddenly revealing a powerhouse of this level, it was naturally astonishing.

Originally, he and his brother had come to Spirit Mountain City with the intention of freely ”acquiring” a seventh-tier pill at the auction.

But judging by the current situation, that was clearly no longer possible.

As for the rest of the powerhouses, their reactions and expressions were almost identical—shocked and disbelieving.

Seeing that the intimidation had worked as intended, Lin Feng let out a light chuckle.

”Heh, now then—allow me to show you the true foundation of my Heavenly Treasure Pavilion. I’m sure today’s auction items will not disappoint.”
