Supreme Star Card Master

Chapter 166: Chapter 144: The Auction Begins Chapter 166: Chapter 144: The Auction Begins The next day, at 1:30 in the afternoon.

Su Yuan and Geng Qiuyi followed the crowd to the second floor of the Tianshu Hotel.

Everywhere they looked, uniformed waiters stood in various places, assisting and guiding the distinguished guests attending the auction.

“Good day, gentlemen.

These are the catalogs for today’s auction items.”

A clean and handsome male waiter handed each Su Yuan and Geng Qiuyi a small booklet.

After receiving the catalogs, they went directly into the auction hall.

“What a large hall!”

As Geng Qiuyi and Su Yuan entered from the doorway, they immediately felt the darkness in front of them.

Looking around, they saw that the large hall was already filled with hundreds of people.

Su Yuan observed for a moment and said slowly, “And most of them are at the Silver Stage; Bronze Level is rare.”

“After all, just the entry qualifications alone require 200 Cent Star Stones, which is quite a lot for an ordinary Bronze-level Star Card Master…” Geng Qiuyi turned his head to look at Su Yuan, “Of course, excluding a monster like you.”

Su Yuan shook his head and glanced at their tickets.

“Seats 243 and 244, let’s go.”

The two found their seats towards the back of the hall.

Geng Qiuyi said, “There is another floor upstairs with several private boxes.”

“They must be for some prominent VIPs, unlike small fry like us.”

Su Yuan casually responded and then scanned the hall again.

Around the hall’s perimeter were many elite guards from the Beidou Consortium responsible for security.

All of them were at least at the Silver Stage, with several at Gold Level, and the highest were two Shining Star Level experts.

Of course, the Tianshu Hotel was one of the important strongholds of the Beidou Consortium, with Burning Sun Level experts stationed year-round.

Anyone attempting trouble would definitely not have a good outcome.

As for those attending the auction, many were of similar age to Su Yuan and Geng Qiuyi, with some even wearing the uniforms of Demon Academy.

“Besides Star Card Masters from society, there are quite a few academy students,” Su Yuan said slowly.

“Yes, this time the scale is quite large.

Besides Demon Academy, students from surrounding areas like Yuanzhou and Xinzhou have also come.”

Su Yuan nodded and took out the auction catalog given by the waiter at the door to browse through it.

“Indeed, there’s the Phoenix Nirvana Stone!”

Su Yuan’s eyes lit up when he saw a large piece of orange-red stone toward the back of the catalog.

The images in the booklet were projected using Star Power to perfectly showcase the items.

At this moment, the stone displayed a gradient from bright yellow to red from the inside out, with flame light flowing on the paper, lifelike.

“Yes!” Geng Qiuyi was also a bit excited, “It’s exactly what we need!”

Su Yuan continued looking through the other items and found that the first and last three items had no detailed information, only brief descriptions.

“Three final items?

A Star Device crafted by a renowned Artifact Refining Master from Demon City, the Star Core of a rare Star Beast, and a top-tier Blue Grade enhancement Star Card.”

Looking at the catalog in his hand, Su Yuan pondered quietly.

Based on these descriptions and values, it was already possible to roughly infer the general situation of these three final items.

Firstly, the top-tier enhancement Star Card should be a Tier 1 Blue Star Card; otherwise, it couldn’t serve as a final item.

However, he already had the Great Sun Burning Body Technique, so he had no need for enhancement Star Cards.

Secondly, as for the Star Device, it was definitely not a purple Epic Star Artifact; that was too precious and would be placed in a higher-level auction as the final item.

On Blue Sea Star, crafting Blue Star Artifacts earned the title of Master, and crafting Epic Star Artifacts earned the title of Grandmaster.

Since this Star Device was made by a Refining Master but was not an Epic Star Artifact, it could only be a top-quality Blue Star Artifact.

He had come to auction the Phoenix Nirvana Stone to craft a Blue Star Artifact, so even if a better Blue Star Artifact appeared, it had nothing to do with him unless it was a spatial element Star Device.

“As for the Star Core of a rare Star Beast…”

Su Yuan frowned slightly; this was harder to guess.

In the lower three levels, Master Star Beasts were already very rare.

Coupled with the extraction probability issue, even two or three Master Star Cores might not be able to extract a single Blue Star Card, making Blue Cards even rarer and more valuable.

So, even the value of a Gold Level Master Star Core was only about the same as an ordinary Blue Star Card.

Logically, it couldn’t be the final item.

“Just how rare is this Star Beast…”

As Su Yuan was pondering, the lights in the hall suddenly changed, gradually focusing on the front of the hall.

“It’s starting!” Geng Qiuyi’s eyes lit up, and he whispered.

Su Yuan nodded and looked up at the stage in front of him as a classical beauty in her late twenties walked onto the stage at the front of the hall.

This woman had an oval face, a dignified appearance, and elegant demeanor, wearing a graceful white gown.

Her unique temperament immediately attracted everyone’s attention as soon as she appeared.

More importantly, she didn’t conceal her Star Power fluctuations, clearly showing she was an expert at the Golden Early Stage!

“Good afternoon, everyone.

I am Chen Junyan from the Beidou Consortium, and I will be hosting today’s auction.”

The woman bowed slightly and then introduced:

“There are 48 items in this auction, some from renowned Artifact Refining Masters, some from hidden sects, and others from secret realms that open once every few years.

Even more, some come from northern countries!”

Hearing this, people had already started to whisper.

“There are actually foreign items; the Beidou Consortium is indeed extraordinary!”

“Yes, in past auctions, there were rarely items from other countries.”
