Some time ago, some sects sent people to contact Xiao one after another. After Ling Xiao appeared several times, gradually no one came to look for Xiao anymore, and Xiao was happy to be free.

Now, Xiao has returned to the academy to attend classes. He found that some things that he couldn't understand before, he can now understand a little. In addition, he was fortunate enough to witness a student suddenly get angry and want to beat up the teacher. He originally thought that his roommate was exaggerating, but he didn't expect that what he said was true.

This Friday was the day when the summer auction started, so Xiao took a day off. That draw earned him a lot of spirit stones, and including the beast cores he got from hunting with Jiang Qiuhui, he now had 200,000 spirit stones on him, and he didn't know if it was enough.

Before leaving, Xiao remembered the agreement he had made with Yuyan some time ago, so he used the communication stone to contact Yuyan and asked if Yuyan was in the arena. On the way to the arena, he found many vendors selling mosquito repellent sachets on the roadside. Thinking of Li Jiangchuan fighting mosquitoes every night, Xiao decided to buy him a sachet.

Arriving at the familiar room deep in the arena, the moment Xiao pushed open the door, the five people inside all looked at him in unison.

"What's wrong?" Xiao felt a little uncomfortable being stared at like this.

"Jinpeng, are you okay?" Cangque held onto Yuyan's arm and asked cautiously.

"What do you mean?" Xiao was a little confused by this question.

"Last Sunday, after the game against the Immortal team, you suddenly lost control and behaved terribly." Yuyan stood up and said.

"Yes, that's right."

The sparrow nodded repeatedly, and even the clouded leopard came out to testify.

Hiss, what happened after the game with Immortal last Sunday?

Xiao tried hard to recall what happened that day, but there seemed to be a veil between him and that memory. All he could recall were some hazy and fragmented fragments, which were not enough for him to piece together what had happened.

Maybe you could ask him?

"'Xiao', do you know what happened at that time?" Xiao asked in his heart.

"Didn't I tell you that you were too weak and couldn't bear the killing karma, so you went crazy for a while. In order to prevent things from getting out of control, I took control." "Xiao" did not intend to tell the truth. He had not yet figured out the reason behind this matter. He felt that even if he told another self, it would only add to his worries.

"You're not doing anything strange with your body, are you?" Xiao asked somewhat worriedly.

"Am I that kind of person in your eyes?"

"Is that so?" Xiao was skeptical.

He said sincerely to Yunbao and the other five people: "I'm fine now. I'm sorry for worrying you all."

Clouded Leopard stroked his chin and looked at Xiao carefully: "That feeling of disobedience has disappeared. Jin Peng should not have lied."

Cangque showed a look of relief, patted his chest and said, "I'm glad you're alright. I was really scared at that time. When I saw that look, I almost thought Jin Peng was going to kill me."

Clouded Leopard showed a look of reminiscence, then nodded in agreement.

"Feel sorry……"

"Hey, what's there to apologize for. You are here to go to the auction with Sister Yuyan, come on, I hope you can get the item you like, and I hope Sister Yuyan can find an opportunity to step into the Saint level!" Cangque said as he pushed Yuyan in front of Xiao.

"When you break through to the Saint level and are awarded an official position by the city lord, don't forget us all." The lizard poked its head out from behind the chair.

"Remember to come back when you have time after the breakthrough. I want to try to see how big the gap is between me and a Saint-level powerhouse." Chilu said.

Cangque put his hands on his waist and looked at Chilu with a smile: "Jinpeng can burst out the fighting power of a saint. If you really want to spar with a saint-level strongman, you can find him. Jinpeng is so easy to talk to, he will definitely not refuse."

"If you don't know how to speak, you don't have to speak." Chilu rolled his eyes at Cangque, who then showed a smug expression on his face.

"Okay, okay, why do you say it as if I will definitely be able to break through? My talent has reached its limit. It's not that easy to break through to the Saint level." Yuyan pulled Cangque, who was having a visual confrontation with Chilu, aside and said to Xiao, "It's getting late, Jinpeng, let's go."

Xiao nodded, said goodbye to the other four people, and left behind Yuyan. On the way, he realized that this was not the way out, and was about to ask, but Yuyan seemed to have guessed his thoughts and looked at him.

"The higher-ups know you're going to the auction, so they decided to give you another 100,000 Spiritual Stones. Come with me to get them now. You don't have to pay them back, regardless of whether you spend them or not," Yuyan said. She withdrew her gaze from Xiao and sighed, "In the mortal world, 100,000 Spiritual Stones is not a small amount. They really think highly of you."

“……” Xiao didn’t know what to say, he just followed silently.

After getting the spirit stone that the arena wanted to give to Xiao, the two rushed to the auction house. They spent a spirit stone to buy a ticket and completed the asset verification at the front desk before they entered the auction.

It was very spacious and seemed to be able to accommodate nearly 10,000 people. Many people had already come and were guessing what good things would appear. However, these were not what the two of them were concerned about. The auction had a special private room reserved for the people in the arena, so they did not need to sit here.

On the way to the private room, Xiao played with the jade stone given to him by the front desk, which was a small magic tool used for bidding. He originally thought that he would have to bid by shouting or holding up a sign, but the result was beyond his expectations.

Seeing this, Yuyan on the side said: "I have to say, these things Yuanliu made are quite useful."

"Yuanliu?" Xiao raised his head and looked at Yuyan in confusion.

"The name of an organization, haven't you heard of it?"

Mandrill shook his head.

Yuyan introduced patiently, "Yuanliu is an organization that suddenly appeared a few years ago. Over the years, they have produced many useful things. In addition to the jade in our hands, the blood detection device in the academy, the formation of the arena, etc. are all their masterpieces."

"Do you know the cannon that is powered by spirit stones and used for city defense? It is said that they are researching a portable version of the cannon this year, with the goal of giving civilians a certain fighting power in times of crisis. They are an interesting bunch of people, and I wonder what they think about every day."

Xiao recalled that this world had indeed developed a little bit of technology. Could it be that this technology tree was chosen by this organization?

The two of them came to their private room, which was very elegantly decorated. There were some snacks and fruits on the table, and the tea was still steaming.

"By borrowing the name of an arena, we can often avoid a lot of trouble during the auction," Yuyan introduced.

Xiao had no choice but to walk to the window and take in the crowd below.
