Starting With Contract Pets Chapter 166 – Auction Begins, the Fascinating Item

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

The incubation of the Ice Phoenix and the Ice Dragon did not require incubators because most incubators had low temperature resistance and did not require special production.

Furthermore, hatching pet eggs was different from the conventional hatching of chicken and duck eggs, for it did not have to be done at a very high temperature. For example, the incubation of the Ice Phoenix and Ice Dragon eggs could be kick-started by using incubation fluid to mobilize their aura.

Su Bai and Chen Ruoxue turned around and brought the eggs onto the table. They slowly poured the hatching liquid into the eggs until it was more than ten centimeters higher than the eggs.

Looking in from the container, the entire eggs were soaked in transparent light blue incubation liquid. Both appeared beautiful and dreamy.

“Okay, next is the most important step.” Su Bai exhaled and smiled.

The most important step was naturally the contract, which was simplest when they were still eggs.

“Okay.” Chen Ruoxue smiled and nodded.

With a snap of his fingers, Su Bai's contract book appeared. The pages of the book turned before finally stopping at page five. His current contract book had nine pages in total, and five pages were blank.

According to his thoughts, the contract page radiated a faint light, and a six-pointed star array flashed into a green streamer before plunging into the Ice Phoenix egg.

Faint green light flashed on the Ice Phoenix egg, indicating that the aura inside had been awakened by itself.

Chen Ruoxue completed the contract at almost the same time as him, having successfully awakened the aura in the egg.

“Okay, now we just need to wait patiently and add hatching fluid to them from time to time. They should hatch in seven or eight days. The level of hatching fluid we used this time is high enough and there should be no accidents,” said Su Bai.

“Okay, then. Let's eat. I'm hungry; I have yet to have breakfast.”

Chen Ruoxue stretched and hugged him coquettishly.

“Then let's go; I'll take you to dinner.”

Su Bai laughed and carried his girlfriend.

“You can only carry me to the door,” said Chen Ruoxue with her arms around his neck.

At the door, he put her down and held her hand. They were ready to go out to the streets for breakfast.

This was when the little girl ran over and said crisply, “Brother, sister, Sister Wei Ya asked you to come over to eat.”

“Oh, thank you.” Su Bai nodded and did not refuse.

Upon arriving, he saw a table filled with hearty meals. Wei Ya greeted Chen Ruoxue and beckoned her to come over. “Come join me for breakfast. Sit beside me, lass. You will accompany me later to buy some things.”

“Okay, my mistress.” Chen Ruoxue nodded.

“When there are no outsiders, I prefer you to call me sister,” Wei Ya held her hand and smiled.

“Okay, sister.” She smiled and sat down beside the woman.

Feeling like a lightbulb, Su Bai also sat and began wolfing down his breakfast.

After eating, he did not disturb the two. Smiling slightly, he said, “I will take my leave now.”

“Are you not coming along?” Wei Ya glanced at him.

“No, I have to go back and prepare some things.” He shook his head.

He and Chen Ruoxue were stuck together every day and were not short of time. Furthermore, he felt a little awkward around the older woman.

His girlfriend smiled apologetically at him, indicating that she would go back soon.

Back in his room, Su Bai tidied his backpack and then began to write a cultivation manual for Chen Ruoxue. It included the direction of cultivation methods for the Super Big Demon and the Thousand-face Fox.

Time flew quickly, and the number of people in the Bloodthirsty Vine Bazaar increased geometrically over the last two days. The people were packed like sardines inside.

The emperor monster, Bloodthirsty Vine, which had been sleeping underneath, was also awakened to maintain the operation of the entire bazaar.

In the blink of an eye, it was already two days later.

Early in the morning, Su Bai woke up from his sleep. He looked up and saw Chen Ruoxue sleeping next to him with her head in his arms, one hand on his waist, and her long legs curled around one of his legs.

“Is it very late already? Is it time to get up?”

Woken up by his movement, the girl turned around and lay on his chest. She hugged him as if he were a pillow. She then grumbled coquettishly like a baby.

Holding her so close early in the morning made his whole body burn. He hugged her waist and said, “Get up quickly; today is the first day of the auction.”

Perhaps she felt the reaction of his moving hand and body, Chen Ruoxue quickly woke up and patted his hand away, preventing it from reaching into her clothes. She then scolded him. “It's early in the morning; be a little calmer. Let's get up and go participate in the auction.”

Su Bai took away his hand regretfully and began to prepare. He was also looking forward to today's auction.

Soon after, the two of them finished breakfast and then took the cub and Qiu Qiu to the auction venue.

“Please show me your number plate.” The staff looked at Su Bai with a smile.

Not everyone could enter this auction, and a special number plate issued by the auction house must be presented in order to enter.

Upon seeing the number plate, the staff's eyes lit up and he bowed. “Please come in. You are in Room 9 on the second floor.”

He nodded and took Chen Ruoxue to the second floor.

This auction was very large, covering an area of ​​500 to 600 square meters. The first floor was full of ordinary auction seats, where the middle of the room showcased the booth of auction items. Meanwhile, the second floor was the VIP room, where only the people specially invited by the auction or with a worth of over one billion could enter.

“This private room is exquisite, but it's a bit small.” He complained.

This private room was only six or seven square meters in size, with a sofa, a coffee table, and an auction bidder.

“This room is for us to watch the auction, not for you to enjoy. It's already not bad,” said Chen Ruoxue as she sat on the sofa.

The side of the private room facing the auction booth was made of special glass, which allowed them to see outside clearly from the inside but not from the inside to the outside.

Sitting on the sofa, he could clearly see the auction booth and most of the people on the first floor.

“The auction will start in about half an hour. Let's wait slowly.” He looked at his watch and said.

In a short while, someone sent fruit and tea, as well as a detailed auction list.

Unlike the previous auction list, every auction item on this list had a detailed introduction and starting bid.

“It seems like there are more auction items than we thought,” he said, looking at the thick auction list in his hand.

“This is natural. This auction is only held every five years.” Chen Ruoxue nodded.

“Do you have anything you want?” He asked after looking at the auction list.

“Not for the time being. Super Big Demon just broke through to the commander level, so I don't really need anything. You can bid as much as you want; I will tell you if I see anything I want.” She shrugged.

“Okay, then.”

Half an hour passed, and when almost every participant had arrived, the auction officially began.

“Ladies and gentlemen, the long-awaited Scarlet Auction is back again after five years. This time, we've prepared many fascinating and rare treasures. I will introduce them to you one by one later. Now, I announce the official start of the auction!”

Sexy ladies appeared at the auction desk and waved to everyone with snow-white gloves.

The opening ceremony of the auction was very direct and fast. After a few words, the auction officially began.

Soon the first item was brought up. It was quite large and was covered by a red cloth.

“According to our past practice, this year's first auction item is still a humanoid pet which everyone is looking forward to. It is a rare Witch Cat of the monster and demon family, with a Thousand Changes characteristics.”

The auction lady opened the red cloth while talking, revealing a beautiful and slender black cat inside. It had a pair of round emerald eyes, and instead of being afraid of the numerous people staring at it, it just stretched lazily in the cage.

“This Witch Cat has completely undergone professional training and can do everything. With its Thousand Changes characteristic, it is equivalent to a changeable girlfriend who is obedient to you.

“Not only can it help you fight, it can also help you relax as your wife when you are tired. ”

The lady giggled and instructed the Witch Cat to change.

“Meow~”

Letting out a lazy cry, the Witch Cat's body flashed with bright light. It suddenly turned into a cute cat-eared girl. With its big eyes, it lazily looked at the group of perverts under the stage.

As the girl instructed it to change again, it became a tall and sexy cat-eared girl.

“F*ck! Ah Wei is dead. This Witch Cat is mine; I will buy it even if it bankrupts my family. Isn't this more interesting than a woman?”

“Don't bother snatching; this Witch Cat is mine. Whoever snatches it can fight with me.”

For a moment, the quiet auction room got as noisy as the vegetable market. Too many people were attracted by this ever-changing cat.

“Do you want to buy it, boyfie?” asked Chen Ruoxue with a grin.

“They are just a bunch of perverts; I am not perverted to that degree.” Su Bai said without any shame. However, in his heart, he was already belittling the Witch Cat. After all, he already had a girlfriend with Thousand Variations.

“Hmph! Didn't you think like that, too, when you hid the fact that contracting a Thousand-face Fox would turn me into a girlfriend capable of transforming?” Chen Ruoxue glared at him.

“Haha… I didn't expect that to happen, either.” He laughed, alleviating his embarrassment.

“Be quiet, everyone! This Witch Cat isn't only a dark attribute pet but also a very rare variety of the Thousand Changes characteristic. Hence, the starting bid for it is ten million, and each bid must increase by more than a million. The auction time is three minutes. I announce the bidding for it is now open.”

The lady onstage announced with a smile.

As the bidding began, everyone started pressing their auction bidder frantically. Because there were too many people participating, it was impossible for everyone to call out their bids like a small auction. Instead, they directly input their bids into the auction bidders in front of them. The big screen onstage displayed the current highest bid, and the lady would also read it aloud.

“It seems that everyone is quite satisfied with our Witch Cat. A high bid of thirty million has appeared in such a short time. There are still two minutes left. Is there any increase in the price?

“This is a rare Thousand Changes cat, the only one in the auction.”

The lady smiled and made the Witch Cat constantly change its appearance.

“Wow, the boss of VIP seat no. 7 has bid thirty-five million. It will be his in thirty seconds. Does anyone have a higher bid?”

“Let us congratulate VIP 7 for winning our lovely Witch Cat at a price of thirty-seven million.”

In the end, the Witch Cat was sold at triple the original price.

Although many people liked this Witch Cat very much, they all retreated in the face of money.

Soon, the second collection began. It was a bunny pet this time. The custom of the Scarlet Auction was to present pets which could transform into humans for the first three biddings.

As the auction slowly carried on, the items became more and more precious. Su Bai did not make any moves yet because he was waiting for the latter items.

“The twentieth item is a skill jade, A Thousand Miles Icebound. This is a high-level ice-based skill jade with a very high upper limit. If the strength is strong enough, it can even freeze a planet. The starting bid is thirty million; the bidding time is still three minutes,” said the lady onstage with a smile.

“Are you going to buy it?” Chen Ruoxue asked while looking at Su Bai.

“Yes, do you want it?” He picked up the auction bidder and directly pressed fifty million.

“This… you are really generous, but I don't want it, not even if you give it to me. I want to harvest it myself.”

Chen Ruoxue first complained about his carefree spending and then shook her head resolutely.

“Okay, but this is the most economical way.”

Su Bai nodded.

“Oh, my God. The big boss in VIP 9 is very liberal with money. He made his first bid at fifty million. Is there anyone who wants to bid higher?

“You must know that a high-level skill jade such as this A Thousand Miles Icebound is very rare, and you may never encounter it again if you miss it now.”

“Unfortunately, no matter how much the girl tempted the audience, no one was willing to increase the price further. They all understood that the big boss had bid fifty million as a signal to everyone else that he would definitely own this thing.

“Okay, time is up; let's congratulate the big boss in VIP 9.”

Soon the skill jade was delivered to Su Bai. He looked at Chen Ruoxue and said, “You really don't want it?”

“I already told you that I didn't want it. I'm not with you for your money.” She shook her head.

He nodded and put the skill jade into the backpack, which he had prepared for the unborn Ice Phoenix.

Soon, another item was brought up. “This is a fire attribute crystal of profound meaning. I don't need to say more about its value; the starting price is fifty million.”

There was no need to introduce the crystal of profound meaning at all. This thing was too precious. After using it, pets could directly understand the profound meaning of fire. Depending on the potential of the pet, some could understand it instantly, while others might take a while, but the result was still inevitable.

This thing could not be mass-produced, it could only be born in some specific fire environment, and it often took a long time to produce one.

Upon seeing this, Su Bai did not hesitate to press one hundred million as his bid. He hoped that others could see his determination.

He understood that money existed not for him to scrimp and save. At birth, we brought nothing, and at death, we took nothing. Moreover, if he did not purchase it now, he could not purchase it again once he was of a higher level, and having money would then be useless.

Furthermore, he felt like the Little Tyrant had been unable to evolve due to the profound meaning of fire, so he was determined to win this item.

“Wow, everyone is fast, but now there is an interesting scene. Four of our VIPs bid one hundred million.” The lady smiled.

Su Bai's mood took a drastic plunge all of a sudden. He was not the only one determined to win the fire-attribute crystal of profound meaning.
