Who let him join the Sword Sect?!

The eldest niece really has quite the eye. Before taking out small loans, she had already observed for a long time, making a general estimate of the personalities and limits of the people on the first floor.

Now, every time she bids, if it's something she really wants, she'll seize it in the most cost-effective way possible.

When she encounters items she finds uninteresting, Bai Wanjun will toy with the bidding price just around people's expected value, slightly raising it, and then drop out once they can't hold it any longer.

This way, she can hide her true intentions to prevent anyone from blindly following her. Secondly, it makes those who want to outbid her think twice.

Bai Tao was thoroughly impressed by this operation, his admiration for Bai Wanjun's eye reaching new heights.

Just as the shining image of the eldest niece was about to be reestablished, Bai Tao suddenly realized with a tinge of sadness that these heavenly materials and earthly treasures she's bidding on will probably be quickly treated as investments and given away once again.

Turning grief into appetite, Bai Tao picked up a melon and started munching.

After Bai Tao had his fill, the auction was also coming to an end. Bai Wanjun merely glanced at the last item and lost interest.

It was a piece of Thousand-Year Ice Jade from the Northern Territory, a specialty of the Northern Territory, and she had handled several pieces before.

To her, this Thousand-Year Ice Jade, which was priceless to ordinary cultivators, was not as interesting as that Spirit Communication Fist technique.

As the Dog Lady auctioneer's hammer fell, the piece of Thousand-Year Ice Jade was snapped up by an old man, marking the official end of the auction.

The cultivators in the first-floor hall rose and, led by the staff, went to claim the items they had won using their number tags.

After claiming their items, those cultivators with nothing else to do could head to the rear hall for a complimentary buffet.

They could engage in social exchanges, or perhaps utter some harsh words to forge enmities.

The VIPs on the second floor, however, didn't need to lift a finger, as the staff would soon bring their won items up to them.

Knock, knock, knock.

After the knocking, Zhang Ze's voice sounded outside the door.

"I'm coming in, okay."

The Thousand Mechanism Pavilion VIP waist tag held by Bai Tao was given by him, and each VIP waist tag is matched with the VIP's name. Once Bai Tao registered the waist tag, Zhang Ze became aware of their presence.

Since the auction was in progress and they were in the second-floor box, Zhang Ze figured they might be discussing some Zhendong Trading Company's business secrets, so he didn't come up.

Now that the auction was over, he took on the role of a manager, personally delivering the spoils Bai Tao and the others had just won.

Moreover, he was eager to meet Bai Tao's colleague, as he felt that person had a keen eye.

Once the door opened, Zhang Ze, dressed like a waiter, walked in, holding a tray with the Spirit Communication Fist on it, and a specially made storage ring containing the other auction acquisitions.

Just as he was about to greet Bai Tao, Bai Wanjun suddenly stood up, walking up to Zhang Ze and said.

Her tone was cold, like an old lady in a ring.

"You have great potential, I foresee an emperor's aura about you!"

Hearing this, Zhang Ze's eyes lit up, feeling he had met a kindred spirit.

Because he thought the same of himself.

Yet anytime he mentioned it to others, they would tell him to drink more hot water and go to sleep.

This included his own master, the Sect Leader, Junior Sister, Li Yueqi, and many others.

No vision whatsoever!

Just as Zhang Ze was preparing to engage in a deep discussion on the topic of emperors with this newly met confidant, she continued.

"Call me senior, let's form a good relationship, and I will give you all these things."

Hearing this, Bai Tao covered his face, feeling utterly embarrassed.

"You take out small loans from them, buy things from their auction, and then give them away."

Zhang Ze was also taken aback and tried to explain, "That's not necessary, I..."

But before he could finish, Bai Wanjun interrupted him with the dominance of a CEO.

"Do not decline, I see that your talent is extraordinary, this Spirit Communication Fist technique is perfect for your cultivation."

"Indeed." Zhang Ze nodded.

He thought this first-time meeting sister's discernment was indeed something.

After all, he was the one who created the Spirit Communication Fist.

If it wasn't suitable, that would just be ridiculous.
