The Bear King lost the strongest fortune of Pure Yang and fell from the divine seat, which is a highly humiliating event.
Needless to say, his current prestige cos largely from the proclamation of being the strongest in Pure Yang, but now he is still at the Pure Yang Peak, yet no longer the strongest.
If this matter gets out, all his prestige will likely serve as a stepping stone for the new strongest in Pure Yang, and his pride will be utterly tarnished.
"We Slavs cannot lose face!" How could the Bear King endure the humiliation, so he is reluctant to break through to the Divine Infant Realm right now.
He shouted, "Jeff, deliver my challenge letter to the Immortal Martial Taoist!"
The Bear King had already known that the new strongest in Pure Yang is Wang Xuan, who once gave him a challenge letter, but unfortunately, he had refused out of arrogance.
Who would have thought that soone as proud as he would lose their crown in such a way, filling him with rage.
"Yes, my lord." With a giant axe in hand, Jeff rode away on a white wolf.
Going directly to Immortal Martial Mountain, Jeff delivered the challenge letter when Wang Xuan was still on Black and White Mountain, feeling pleased that the Bear King actually had such a day!
Wang Xuan said disdainfully, "Just a weakling; what qualifies him to challenge ? Even without the fortune, I’m stronger than him, and now that the Bear King has lost the fortune’s blessing, how could he be my match?
Let him accept fate, focus on cultivating into the Divine Infant Realm, and abandon thoughts of being the strongest in Pure Yang, as he will never achieve it in his lifeti."
Such words infuriated the follower Jeff, and it’s conceivable how much they stung the Bear King, yet he couldn’t refute them.
The Bear King pounded his chest and roared, "I will personally defeat him and reclaim my glory!"
Having said that, he rushed to Immortal Martial Mountain, only to find that Wang Xuan had already left for the moon. Unwilling, he continued the pursuit.
...
"Auction item No. 23: Immortal Spirit Brocade, woven by a Female Immortal with incredible ingenuity over three years, depicting landscapes and rivers. Starting price: thirty thousand lower-grade spirit stones."
Many people hesitated below, yet hadn’t pressed the bidding button, before Yue Yiyi said, "I want it."
Wang Xuan rubbed his forehead, waved his hand, "Bid for it."
He knew the girl bought it not out of liking, but rely because it looked pleasing, buying whatever she fancied.
"Heavenly number three hundred seat bid: fifty thousand spirit stones, anyone else bidding? Higher bids?" The elder called from the floating Jade Platform at the lake’s heart.
No dissent, Yue Yiyi spoke up, no one raised the bid. Those able to cultivate to the Human Immortal, each with a keen mind.
Yue Yiyi smiled with two faint dimples, bidding promptly satisfied her expression but sowhat disturbed the order.
"Yiyi, you don’t need these things, let those who need them succeed, okay?
If you like sothing, bid using the device rather than speaking out, lest we appear to be using Immortal Martial Mountain’s influence for coercion," Wang Xuan said, signaling the attendant to draw the panoramic windows.
Yue Yiyi pursed her lips, reluctantly said, "Okay."
"Auction item No. 36: Elf Queen’s Crown, belonging to the queen of a tribe in the Elf Realm, extrely rare and holds significant collection value. Starting price: one hundred thousand spirit stones."
After the host spoke, soone asked from their seat: "Is the Elf Queen present? I’m more interested in the queen."
The n exchanged knowing smiles; the world knew the Elf Race mbers were all beautiful, with graceful figures, satisfying n’s fantasies as one of the great existences.
Years ago many prided themselves on collecting a female elf, not just pretty but practical, suitable for both day and night.
Unfortunately, two or three hundred years passed, pure bloodline elves beca scarce, with most female elves in the auction now bred using divine genes.
Not long after, the Elf Queen’s Crown was taken by an Earth Immortal, without Yue Yiyi’s interference, the bidding went well enough.
Among the guests at this auction, Human Immortal cultivators were most nurous, but many rely watched for entertainnt, lacking funds. Only disciples at Divine Treasure and Vajra Realm could bid on early items.
"Auction item No. 54: Demon-Revealing Mirror, beneath Celestial Demons, those shrouded by this mirror will show their true form, even Celestial Demons show flaws before this mirror. Starting price: fifty thousand spirit crystals."
Wang Xuan found the mirror interesting and casually raised the bid.
"Heavenly number three hundred bid: one hundred thousand spirit crystals," the host elder’s face showed slight delight, knowing this room number was not to be trifled with. Doubling the price was a nod to decorum; otherwise, it might have been taken at the base price.
Lower seats’ Human Immortals glanced around, then looked up towards heavenly number three hundred, one hundred thousand spirit crystals - that’s twice an Earth Immortal Peak’s worth.
Such extravagance, just for a mirror, one without offensive power, baffled them, felt it wasted good resources on sothing trivial.
Wang Xuan felt assured, unless it was sothing crucial without conflicting interests, those present would give Immortal Martial Mountain face.
Surprisingly, a voice called out, "One hundred twenty thousand spirit crystals, I want this mirror."
In a breath, a young man in battle armor with a long halberd appeared, dignified, hovering in the air, overlooking many Earth Immortals.
Such behavior sparked resentnt, as having soone stand above them with legs spread displeased anyone.
Of course, many showed surprise as this was a recently erging prodigy who challenged nurous Earth Immortal Peak disciples, including true inheritors from the Immortal Holy Land.
No matter the opponent’s age, origin, whether a Sword Cultivator, Buddhist Cultivator, or Knight, it made no difference, he prevailed in dozens of battles!
The world speculates on who may be stronger, this young prodigy or the King of Earth Immortals, Wang Xuan, sparking fierce debates among many.
Before Wang Xuan could speak, Yue Yiyi already raised the bid by thirty thousand spirit crystals, the host elder promptly said, "Heavenly number three hundred bid: one hundred fifty thousand spirit crystals."
"Hey, down there, this mirror is ours, we have lots and lots of spirit crystals, you can’t outbid us," Yue Yiyi stuck her head out the window, stating in a crisp voice with a hint of innocence.
Chen Jie furrowed his brow, "Where did this brat co from? Adults haven’t spoken, why are you interrupting?"
He then turned to Wang Xuan, "One hundred sixty thousand spirit crystals, please give , Chen Jie, so face and let this item go to ."
Due to competition, the mirror that started at fifty thousand spirit crystals reached one hundred sixty thousand; acquiring it ant spending quite a bit extra, displeasing Chen Jie.
"I bid two hundred thousand spirit crystals, want to continue?" Wang Xuan sat comfortably without even rising, speaking lazily.
Having stayed on the strongest Earth Immortal throne for a period, he naturally sensed this young man, now the newly crowned King of Earth Immortals!
However, Chen Jie’s strength was weaker than he ever was, estimating even less than the forr Demon Subduing Arhat, needing fortune to smoothen his foundations for two years to compare.
The truth is, the existence of a King of Earth Immortals usually lasts several years to a decade or more, needing ti to solidify their foundations, let fortune scour and strengthen their roots to the utmost point before breaking through.
Unfortunately, with Wang Xuan’s ergence and his clone, the King of Earth Immortal throne turnover sped excessively, with four turnover in a year.
Yue Yiyi grinned showing small white teeth, then snorted, "Why can’t you give us face? Our face is more valuable.
Also, who are you calling a brat? Apologize or I’ll drag you back to Immortal Martial Mountain for a good thrashing."
She waved her arms defiantly, giving no face, for she disliked being terd a child, especially a disrespected child.
"Immortal Martial Mountain? Heard the Immortal Martial Taoist claid to be King of Earth Immortals, why isn’t he present? Is there sothing shady?"
Chen Jie didn’t recognize Yue Yiyi, seeing her without cultivation, truly saw her as a child’s companion, thus, ignored directly.
The auction attendees watched the unfolding clash, wondering: If Chen Jie knew the girl’s prior actions, what would be his expression now?
Wang Xuan stood up, indifferently said, "I, Wang Xuan, act boldly and openly, what’s shady about it."
In a sudden turn, his appearance restored to original, golden armored cloak donned, radiating brilliantly, dragon and phoenix shadows swirling.
Majestic and vigorous Wang Xuan, like a young war god, coldly gazed down on Chen Jie, creating a spectacle glowing so strongly that it dazzled everyone.
This Chen Jie likely assud Wang Xuan encountered cultivation issues, fell from the King of Earth Immortals throne, for no one would quickly abandon such a position.
Being an obscure youth, now as the new King of Earth Immortals, nothing faster to fa than stepping over the prestigious Immortal Martial Taoist.
He guessed correctly, Wang Xuan indeed was no longer King of Earth Immortals, yet didn’t foresee, Wang Xuan was the strongest in Pure Yang!
(Thanks to "Xiaoyao Madman’s Dream" for the generous reward.)
