Chapter 63: Battle of Kings
Lin Xiao and the three of them did not pay a hundred star spirit stones to enter the auction hall, at this moment the auction hall was already crowded and noisy, Xiaobei frowned slightly, he seemed to be very unaccustomed to this kind of place, and even a little disgusted, but Zhang Tan didn't feel it at all, he seemed to enjoy it very much, and his face was always full of smiles.
Lin Xiao's divine sense probed around, and his heart was suddenly shocked, there were several faint breaths buried in this auction hall, all of them were strong cultivators of the Star King Realm, and they were not ordinary Star King Realms, if he hadn't converged quickly, he would definitely be discovered.
"Let's go, let's go to that place, where there are a couple of locations, it's very nice to be able to auction everything on the table. β
Zhang Yan's eyes seemed to be extremely sharp, and he saw a few good positions at a glance, and pulled Lin Xiao and Xiaobei towards that side.
"Hey, isn't this Brother Lin Xiao, why didn't you come to me when you came to the royal capital. β
At this time, a familiar voice sounded in Lin Xiao's ears, Zhang Tan also stopped, and Xiaobei on the side lowered his head.
"Third Prince, I didn't expect to see you here, I just arrived, and I heard that there was an auction here, so I wanted to come and take a look. β
Seeing the person, Lin Xiao was also stunned, isn't this person Luo Jin who he saw in Xingwang Town, how can there be no shortage of beauties around him, hugging left and right.
The gray-clothed old man behind him glanced at Xiaobei and Zhang Jian beside Lin Xiao, lowered his head again, and stopped paying attention.
"Hey, don't be so outward, just call me Luo Jin, is this your friend, hey! This girl is very beautiful, I thought that Brother Lin Xiao didn't touch women, but I didn't expect that I thought too much, you are not an ordinary woman." β
Luo Jin looked at Xiaobei with a smile and asked, Xiaobei's face turned red, and he didn't dare to speak, if she was usually slapped, she would definitely slap it, but the person in front of him couldn't.
She really has some acquaintances in this Baiding City, after all, Yanwu County and Xiwu County are close to each other, and the people of the Yan family often communicate with the people of the royal family.
"Third prince, don't talk nonsense, he's just a friend of mine, not what you think, this is my brother Zhang Yan. β
Lin Xiao said with a wry smile, it would be good if this Xiaobei was his girlfriend, at least Lin Xiao in his previous life would not have had this kind of opportunity.
"Oh, just not yet, hehe, come on. β
Luo Jin patted Lin Xiao on the shoulder, and a wicked smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, which made Lin Xiao a little embarrassed.
"You're here for the auction too. β
Luo Jin didn't continue to ask this question, and Lin Xiao also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Well, I heard that there are a lot of good things, so I wanted to check them out. β
Lin Xiao said with a smile.
"Hehe, of course the things in the Heavenly Auction are good things, many treasures cannot exist in our Xingwu Continent, and the people who came this time include many powerhouses from other kingdoms. β
Luo Jin explained that there were a total of five Heavenly Auction Houses in the entire Xingwu Continent, which were in the royal capitals of the five kingdoms, and of course there were some temporary locations, but there were very few opportunities for such temporary events.
Every auction held by the Tianyu Auction House is for the entire Xingwu Continent, and everyone can participate, even if it is between rival kingdoms, but during the auction, the two countries must make a truce, otherwise they will be hunted down by the entire organization of the Tianyu Auction House, and the major kingdoms of the Xingwu Continent are very sensible to accept the opinions of the Tianyu Auction House.
"Didn't you say that this auction was specially held for the enrollment of Seibu Academy, why did people from other kingdoms also participate? β
Lin Xiao asked curiously, he heard that the things in this auction were all earthly products, and there were also heavenly products, but they were very rare, and this kind of auction should not make people from other kingdoms come from thousands of miles away.
"Haha, Brother Lin Xiao, those are just rumors, you think that a student from Xiwu Academy has such great ability, and you are too naΓ―ve to be able to attract the Tianyu Auction House to hold an auction for them. β
Luo Chang said with a smile, the Tianyu Auction House is the business of the entire Star Domain, and a small place like the Xiwu Kingdom is not so attractive for them to deliberately hold it.
The Tianyu auction is held every five years in the Xingwu Continent, and the auction items released each time reach thousands of varieties, and many of them are treasures that are not available in the Xingwu Continent or even very rare, so the influence of the Tianyu is very large, and any auction is full of people.
"Why is that?"
Lin Xiao asked.
"It doesn't hurt to tell you, you will know about this sooner or later, the battle of kings once in a hundred years will be held in advance, and I don't know the specific time, but the last time was sixty years ago, according to the law, it will definitely not be during this time, and this auction is also prepared for the battle of kings, so many things are to improve the younger generation, not for the freshmen of the Seibu Academy. β
Luo Jin said slowly, he also listened to his uncle about this news, although he didn't know why the battle of kings was advanced, but his news could never be faked.
"Battle of Kings?"
Lin Xiao looked at Luo Jin in surprise, how could he not have this concept in his memory, once in a hundred years, maybe because the last time it was held was only sixty years, Lin Xiao didn't care.
"Ahem, brother, you don't know about the Battle of Kings, do you? β
Luo Jin looked at Lin Xiao in disbelief and asked, while Zhang Yan on the side was also at a loss and didn't know.
"Oh! I really don't know. β
Lin Xiao said, is it very famous, the name is very domineering, but I really don't have it in my memory.
"Yo! brother, let me give you a brief explanation, there are five kingdoms in the Xingwu Continent where we are located, which belong to the Northern Xinjiang Dynasty, and the Northern Xinjiang Dynasty will hold a battle of the hundred kings every hundred years, that is, hundreds of kingdoms under the rule of the Northern Xinjiang Dynasty will compete for hegemony. And our Xingwu Continent will conduct an internal screening before the Battle of the Hundred Kings, which is also called the Battle of Kings. β
Seeing Lin Xiao's dazed appearance, Luo Jin was a little skeptical that Lin Xiao was from the Xingwu Continent, and it stands to reason that everyone in the Xingwu Continent knew about this matter.
"To put it simply, it is a martial battle between the five kingdoms of the Xingwu Continent. β
Lin Xiao said.
"Luckily, your comprehension is still very strong, otherwise I wouldn't know how to tell you. β
Luo Jin sighed.
"Isn't this battle of the hundred kings a struggle between kingdoms for hegemony, and what kind of internal competition we are engaged in. β
Lin Xiao asked puzzledly, the five kingdoms of the Xingwu Continent should be fighting separately in the Battle of the Hundred Kings, what is the point of what kind of battle of kings are they engaged in now.
"It is said that the battle between kingdoms is actually a battle between continents, and we must select the strongest people from the continent to participate, and we must take care of it when the time comes. β
Luo Jin said in a deep voice, the battle of the hundred kings is not just a hundred kingdoms, but a struggle for hegemony between hundreds of kingdoms on a hundred continents.
"Who is the main participant in the Battle of Kings?"
Lin Xiao said.
"Mainly the people of the Kingdom Academy, as well as the people of the royal family, are all elites in the kingdom, and they can participate in it under the age of thirty, and there is also a limit to the number of people in each kingdom, and the number of people at the top of the ranking is more, but no more than thirty, and at least ten. β
Luo Jin spoke carefully.
"Then how many people are there in our Seibu Kingdom. β
Lin Xiao asked.
"Ten. β
Luo Jin Road.
"Oh, our Seibu Kingdom is relatively low in the Northern Frontier Imperial Dynasty. β
Lin Xiao sighed.
"It's not more backward, it's last. β
Luo Jin didn't hide it, and said directly.
"The auction started right away, and now it's quiet. β
At this time, an old man in white appeared on the auction table, and the entire auction room was quiet.
