Looking at the mirror in his hand that was able to correctly tell his cultivation base, Ye Xiao asked subconsciously, "What is this?"
The girl's expression became more respectful, and the way she addressed him changed. "Sir, this is the tool created by the founder of my Sacred Pavilion. Any cultivation base below the Martial Saint Realm can be detected by using this mirror. It's called the Spirit Testing Mirror."
"Spirit Testing Mirror? That senior is also a Weapon's Craftsman?"
"Yes!" When mentioning the founder of the Sacred Pavilion, the woman had a proud expression on her face.
A Martial Saint Realm expert was not someone that could be underestimated in any place, let alone a Weapons Craftsman at the same time.
Ye Xiao nodded his head and no longer spoke anything.
The girl handed Ye Xiao a number plate and asked someone to bring him to the second floor of the Sacred Pavilion. There were still three days until the Sacred Pavilion Auction. Ye Xiao could book a room with the number plate in advance.
During these three days, he could stay in the room on the second floor, or he could leave the Sacred Pavilion and go somewhere else to stay for the time being.
The Sacred Pavilion Auction was divided into three levels.
The third level was a place prepared for the Great Powers' leaders of Holy Spirit City, the surrounding Great Powers' upper echelons, and the upper echelons of the three countries.
The second level was prepared for the Martial Ancestor Realm experts from outside or nearby the Holy Spirit City.
The first floor was for those below the Martial Ancestor Realm martial artists.
Apart from the third floor, the Second and First Floor's rooms were specially reserved for people who could do whatever they wanted inside.
No one cared even if the auction was going on.
After Ye Xiao left, the girl sighed and thought to herself, "Even if he is a Great Power's genius, he might not be able to win the bid against those powers. After all, this is their home ground. But that's not necessarily the case. Since he is from a Great Power, his foundation should be extremely deep. Perhaps he might be able to defeat them."
"But once he really does snatch away the Sky Fire Bird's egg from those people, he will be in grave danger. No matter how much of a genius he is, he can not win against more than five Martial Ancestor Realm experts. There are also those Martial Saint Realm martial artists. They had hidden themselves for years but after hearing the news about the Sky Fire Bird's egg, they have all come out to bid for it."
...
Ye Xiao did not know what the girl was thinking. At this moment, a maid had arrived at a room on the second floor that was arranged for Ye Xiao.
There were a total of 108 rooms on the second floor. Ye Xiao's number plate was 22, which was the number of his room on the second floor. It was worth mentioning that these arrangements were calculated according to the time.
It was the same on the third floor, but there were fewer rooms on the third floor. There were only 36 rooms.
Ye Xiao sized up this room. It was about a hundred square meters. It was not considered small. Well... whatever, this room was just a temporary residence.
There seemed to be a Spirit Gathering Formation installed in the room. The spirit energy that was gathered was extremely dense. Unfortunately, to the current Ye Xiao, this little amount of spirit energy was nothing. With this much spirit energy, Ye Xiao would need at least six months of boring cultivation in order to break through to the Ninth Stage of the Martial Ancestor Realm.
His speed of cultivation was much faster outside. He fights, kills, devours, and increases his cultivation.
The higher the cultivation base, the less effective the spirit gathering formation would be. And what was more, Ye Xiao could see many flaws in the spirit gathering formation here.
"I'll be staying here for the next three days." Ye Xiao said to his maid in a flat tone.
"Yes!" The female servant who led Ye Xiao here answered respectfully and was about to leave. But at this moment, Ye Xiao again called out to her. "Wait a minute, after three days, the auction is going to officially start. Gather some information about those big powers that are here to participate in the auction and I will give you a hundred Middle-Garde Spirit Stones after this is done!"
The maid didn't reject Ye Xiao's orders. It was not like this had never happened before, so she remained calm.
However, when she heard the reward, she was completely stunned.
He was a big customer, and he was a very generous customer. In the past, it was already good enough for those people to give her a few Low-Grade Spirit Stones. After all, she was only an Origin Core Realm cultivator.
One Middle-Grade Spirit Stones was equivalent to ten Low-Grade Spirit Stones. A hundred Middle-Grade Spirit Stones... That was equivalent to a thousand Low-Grade Spirit Stones.
The maid was trembling with excitement. If these Spirit Stones were given to her to cultivate, it would be a piece of cake for her to reach the Martial King Realm. At that time, her status in the Sacred pavilion will increase and she can enjoy much greater benefits.
She would be able to break away from her status as a servant and become a deacon of the Sacred Pavilion. Her status would be much higher than being just a servant. It was like heaven and earth, totally not on the same level.
As a female servant, if she met some customers with special interests, she would not be able to resist at all.
"I... Sir... Rest assured, this servant will definitely complete your orders properly!" The maid's face was no longer filled with formal respect and smile, but genuine joy and fawning.
Ye Xiao waved his hand and the female servant withdrew.
...
Three days passed very quickly. During these three days, Ye Xiao had only been cultivating in boredom. If one were to talk about breaking through to the next stage, it would only be a matter of time before he broke through to the next stage.
After three days, the maid had more or less completed Ye Xiao's orders.
According to the news that the maid had received, Ye Xiao needed to pay attention to what he needed to do in order to compete for the Sky Fire Bird's egg. There were a total of eleven forces.
Seven of them came from the three First Garde Countries, one came from the inner region of Holy Spirit City, and three came from the surrounding three empires.
Other than these powers, there were naturally several major families that were on par with each other.
With Ye Xiao's current Cultivation base, almost no one in the entire Holy Beast Continent was his match.
The one that Ye Xiao paid attention to was the Lu family of the Holy Spirit City. The previous Family Head of the Lu family was also a Martial Saint Realm martial artist. The one who came this time was the current Family Head, a Peak of the Martial Ancestor Realm martial artist.
Ye Xiao recorded this information in his heart. He sat in the twenty-second room and waited quietly.
Today was the day of the Sacred Pavilion Auction's opening. There was only half an hour left until the real start.
Half an hour later, the noisy First Layer suddenly quieted down. On the auction stage, an old man with a few strands of black hair unknowingly appeared. The aura of a Peak Martial Ancestor Realm martial artist rippled out from his body.
" It's Elder Hu. I didn't think that the host this time would be Elder Hu!"
"Hehe, I heard that the Sky Fire Bird's egg will be auctioned this time. No wonder Elder Hu came out. Otherwise, It would have been very difficult for the Sacred Pavilion to control the crowd."
"That's right. Elder Hu is a Ninth Stage Martial Ancestor Realm martial artist. He is the second strongest person besides the Pavilion Master in the Sacred Pavilion. Only someone as strong as Elder Hu is able to control a crowd of experts."
A group of martial artists at the First Floor of the Sacred Pavilion auction house started discussing amongst themselves.
After all, only those with and above the cultivation base at the Martial Emperor Realm were allowed to participate in this auction. People with the cultivation base below the Martial Emperor Realm were not allowed to take a single step inside the Sacred Pavilion auction house.
But even so, there was no lack of experts inside the Sacred Pavilion this time and the reason was the Sky Fire Bird's egg.
