"So, you're that rumored Ye Feng."
Hidden Cloud, who had tanned skin and looked as strong as a bull, looked down at Shifeng with a slightly strange expression.
The majority of God's Domain's players were oblivious to the happenings in the Dark Arena.
Not to mention, the Dark Arena held matches every day. Hence, it was even more difficult to pay attention to a battle team's members.
However, to an upper echelon of a Super Guild like Hidden Cloud, he naturally wouldn't care about the Dark Arena's ordinary experts. Instead, he would remember some people.
This was especially true for people like Shifeng, who had defeated Sirius, an old monster who had been famous for many years in the Dark Arena. Even if he didn't want to, the Guild would remind him.
After all, at this level, experts like Shifeng could no longer be ignored. In any Super Guild, they would be considered a high-end combatant, an apex expert capable of contending with other Super Guilds.
"It's just an empty reputation." Shifeng shrugged, chuckling nonchalantly.
Previously, he had only noticed Gentle Snow, who was extremely eye-catching. He hadn't noticed Hidden Cloud.
Hidden Cloud was an extremely powerful individual. His life was a legend. He had debuted in the virtual gaming world at the age of 17. Now, at the age of 27, he was already the Nine Heavens Pavilion's Fifth Floor Master.
Hidden Cloud's achievements in God's Domain had also reached the apex.
After spending only five years in God's Domain, Hidden Cloud had become the Second Floor Master. He was also the Nine Heavens Pavilion's most likely candidate to become the First Floor Master.
Hidden Cloud's position in the Nine Heavens Pavilion was secondary. His true strength lay in the fact that he was one of the top ten God-ranked Assassins in God's Domain. If he wanted to assassinate someone, very few people in God's Domain could stop him.
Hidden Cloud's most impressive feat was when he had single-handedly killed one of the Flower of Seven Sins' upper echelons. This incident had shocked the organization, and the Nine Heavens Pavilion's prestige had soared among Super Guilds.
After all, not even Super Guilds dared to provoke a transcendental power like the Flower of Seven Sins. Countless Super Guilds had suffered at the Flower of Seven Sins' hands. In fact, it had always been Super Guilds that suffered losses. The Flower of Seven Sins had never suffered a loss. Hidden Cloud's feat of killing one of the organization's upper echelons had greatly boosted the Nine Heavens Pavilion's reputation.
This incident had shocked the various large Guilds in God's Domain. Shifeng was one of them.
"I never thought that Gentle Snow would actually know Hidden Cloud. It seems that Gentle Snow has quite a few secrets."
Shifeng glanced at the four people behind Hidden Cloud. These four were Hidden Cloud's brothers. Every one of them possessed extraordinary strength. Even in the Dark Arena, they would be top-tier experts. It was precisely because of these four that Hidden Cloud had been able to climb to his current position so quickly.
However, the Shifeng did not understand.
If Gentle Snow were acquainted with such an important character, she should have been able to easily become Ouroboros's Guild Leader. In fact, Hidden Cloud only needed to make a slight appearance, and Cao Chenghua and the Grand Elders behind him wouldn't dare oppose him. After all, Hidden Cloud was rumored to be a very loyal man. In order to help his brother win over a woman, he had even annihilated a large Guild.
Judging from Gentle Snow's words and expressions, Hidden Cloud had a deep relationship with her brother. Yet, in the end, Gentle Snow had still left the virtual gaming world. It was truly puzzling.
Just as Shifeng was pondering the situation, Gentle Snow suddenly turned to Xiang Shifeng, smiling, and said, "Since you've only just found out, you probably haven't purchased an entry ticket yet, right? However, if you buy one now, they will most likely be sold out. Why don't you come with us? If you miss this auction, you will definitely regret it."
When the Blackwing Auction House held this time's auction, many Guilds had purchased their tickets as soon as they could. Now that the auction was about to begin, it was most likely impossible for them to purchase an entry ticket. Without an entry ticket, they would not be able to enter the auction.
In the Dark Arena, Shifeng had helped her earn a fortune, increasing Ouroboros's liquid funds by quite a bit. Although Shifeng did not know about this, Gentle Snow felt that she should thank him. After all, aside from helping her earn money, Shifeng had also helped her reclaim Ouroboros.
Hearing Gentle Snow's words, Hidden Cloud's expression darkened slightly, his gaze sharpening as he glared at Xiang Shifeng.
"Thank you for your kind intentions, Guild Leader Snow. However, I still have other matters to attend to, so I won't disturb you any longer."
Shifeng did not wish to waste this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. He needed to register his items at the registration counter. As for entering the auction venue, that was not important. After all, his goal here was to earn money.
"Will it take a lot of time?" Gentle Snow could not help but ask.
"Not much. It might take half an hour." Shifeng glanced at the long queue. Although there were many people registering, the process was simple and quick. He should be able to complete it in half an hour.
"That's fine. In any case, there's still some time before the auction officially begins. I can wait here for you," Gentle Snow said after giving the matter some thought.
"Alright, I'll hurry, then." Since Gentle Snow had already said so, Shifeng had no reason to refuse.
Blackwing City's monthly large-scale auction would indeed have plenty of good items. He might be able to purchase something good. If there were Epic items up for sale, he would be in luck.
"Inviting this Ye Feng really isn't easy." Gentle Snow was at a loss for words as she watched Shifeng's departing figure. This was the first time she had had such a difficult time inviting someone.
However, shortly after Shifeng left, Hidden Cloud secretly sent a message to one of his brothers, whispering, "Blade, investigate that Ye Feng. I need to know his background. I need to know his details as soon as possible!"
"Big Brother, rest assured. I'll get it done in a moment." The Berserker named Blade smiled confidently. He then began to search for information on Shifeng on the internet. At the same time, he contacted many people to help him.
At the registration counter …
After waiting for over twenty minutes, Shifeng finally got his turn.
"Sir, how may I be of service?" the NPC receptionist asked, smiling.
"I wish to sell this item in the upcoming large-scale auction," Shifeng said as he took out a Strengthening Device.
"Alright, please wait a moment." After receiving the Strengthening Device, the NPC receptionist began to appraise it.
In the Blackwing Auction, not all items were allowed to be auctioned. At the very least, an item had to reach a certain value before it could be auctioned. Hence, a system appraisal was conducted.
"Hello, sir. Sorry for the long wait. The estimated minimum selling price for this item is 1 Gold, 40 Silver. If you wish to sell it in our auction house, we will charge a 30% processing fee. May I know if you wish to auction it?" After the NPC receptionist finished appraising the Strengthening Device, she handed it over to Shifeng.
Only Blackwing City's large-scale Auction Houses had a 30% processing fee. Elsewhere, the fee would, at most, be 20%. Even so, Shifeng did not mind.
"Alright." Saying so, Shifeng took out 2,000 Strengthening Devices and sold them in hundreds of batches. Some batches only contained one Strengthening Device, while some batches contained over a hundred Strengthening Devices.
If he sold too many of them at once, it would only make the Strengthening Devices look cheap. Hence, 2,000 Strengthening Devices should be just enough for the various large Guilds to digest.
After dealing with the Strengthening Devices, Shifeng ran to meet up with Gentle Snow and the others. They then entered the auction venue and quietly waited for the auction to begin.
"Big Brother, we've found all the information on that brat," Blade sent a private message to Hidden Cloud.
