Even Master Chen Zhen wasn't qualified to sit in on the proceedings.

"Alright, everyone's up. Wait for me a bit, we'll go check out the auction venue..."

Half an hour later.

The headquarters building of the Pokémon League at Silver Mountain.

Lu Chen and Lin Ye successfully entered the auction hall by virtue of their status as representatives of the Dragon Kingdom.

The auction (cidj) will start at 9:00 AM and continue until 6:00 PM.

There is a two-hour break in the middle.

The timing of each auction item is fixed, so as long as the event is not disrupted, it doesn't matter when you enter.

Lu Chen and Lin Ye arrived a little after eight o'clock.

The auction had not officially started yet, but many top-tier or master-level trainers had already arrived in the hall.

And the young talents from various countries who accompanied them.

However, Lu Chen didn't see many familiar faces among these people.

Instead, I saw it...

"Lu Chenjun!"

“Um… Ms. Yuki Sakai.”

Lu Chen was just about to walk to the counter to have some breakfast when he suddenly saw a young lady in a gorgeous dress running excitedly toward him.

"Long time no see, Lu Chenjun... I didn't expect to run into you here. I haven't thanked you for what you did last time!"

"Thank you... well, that's not impossible."

Lu Chen waved his hand and said.

He really wanted a Dream Converter manufactured by Sakai Heavy Industries.

"So you are Lu Chenjun!? The Dragon Kingdom truly... produces heroes among its young!"

Conversation room.

A middle-aged man in a smart suit walked slowly behind Yuki Sakai.

"Let me introduce myself. I am Koji Sakai, the president of Sakai Heavy Industries Group."

"Mr. Sakai..."

Lu Chen's expression changed when he heard the name.

Koji Sakai, who is... Yuki Sakai's father? One of the founders of Sakai Heavy Industries.

“Lu Chenjun, I haven’t thanked you for the gift you gave me when you saved Yuki last time…” Koji Sakai said, handing over a business card at the same time.

"This is my business card. If you need anything in the future, you can call this number. Whatever Lu Chenjun needs, Sakai Shigehiro will do his best to help you achieve it."

“Ah?! Oh…”

Lu Chen took the business card in a daze.

I didn't expect the boss of this sheet metal heavy industry company to be so easy to talk to...

They're nothing like the trainers from the Sakura Country he'd encountered before!

but……

Wasn't this auction only open to top-tier or master-level trainers?

How did Yuki Sakai get in?

“My family is one of the sponsors of this auction…” Yuki Sakai seemed to have noticed Lu Chen’s confusion and whispered something in his ear.

wipe!

Big dog owner!

The corners of Lu Chen's mouth twitched.

But thinking about it, it makes sense. After all, this is a gathering of top trainers from all over the planet. The benefits of befriending a top trainer here are immeasurable.

"My father is calling me, so... see you later, Lu Chen-kun." Sakai Yuki chatted with Lu Chen for a while.

Koji Sakai then called her over.

After Lu Chen nodded, he finally saw Lin Ye staring at him with a resentful look not far behind him.

"You're such a dog!!!"

Seeing that Sakai Yuki had walked away, Lin Ye didn't say a word and punched Lu Chen in the chest.

"Are you still out of your mind? You only saved her once by chance..." Lu Chen glanced at him sideways.

"Damn! You think you can just casually save a rich young lady? You think you're the protagonist of a novel?!"

"Uh... almost."

Lu Chen and Lin Ye chatted and laughed.

The auction officially began.

Under the polite guidance of the reception staff, they arrived at the auction area reserved for the Dragon Kingdom.

The auction was held in the lobby on the sixth floor of the Baiyinshan Building.

This hall can accommodate thousands of people and is divided into private rooms and regular private rooms.

However, when Lu Chen arrived, he discovered that there weren't actually many people at the auction. If you exclude the people in the private rooms, there were probably less than two hundred people.

"The items auctioned this morning were not very attractive, mostly items that could amplify the power of Pokémon's moves... Neither Master-level nor Top-level Trainers were particularly interested in these kinds of items."

So I looked towards the hall.

Many of the people who came were younger than him, only a few years older.

These kinds of magical items are very helpful to them.

They can demonstrate considerable combat power, at least until the elves grow up.

However, this is actually a good thing for Lu Chen.

After all, he had already taken a quick look at the auction items from the morning.

There are still quite a few good things inside.

The fewer people, the better.

even..

There was no one else in the private room where Lu Chen and Lin Ye were sitting; it was very quiet.

However, there was one person who surprised Lu Chen.

"Aunt Su Yun?"

"Well, come and take a look."

She was dressed in a loose white meditation outfit, her long black hair casually tied up.

Su Yun sat calmly beside Lu Chen, her eyes undisturbed, quietly watching the exhibition stand in the center of the auction hall.

Su Yun's arrival made Lin Ye and Lu Chen breathe much slower.

Both of them were focused intently on the display stand.

at this time.

Several items resembling ancient bronze coins, unearthed from the ruins, were auctioned off for 1.2 million.

This left Lu Chen speechless.

After all, no matter how he looked at it, the copper coin seemed like a useless piece of junk.

At most, it has collectible value.

Look at it this way.

The people who came to participate in the auction were really rich.

"I wonder what price the Life Pearl will fetch this afternoon..."

Lu Chen looked at the bidding machine next to him, somewhat unsure of the reserve price.

Although the Dragon Kingdom ultimately paid, the financial groups or organizations behind the other top trainers weren't just sitting idly by.

"Hope everything goes well..."

The auction proceeded smoothly.

With the auction of rare tree fruits concluded, many old or highly effective spirit items began to be auctioned.

And at this point...

The atmosphere in the auction hall gradually became lively.

After all, most of the previous auction items were not very useful, and neither trainers, breeders, nor researchers were very interested in them.

Most of them are bought by collectors through auctions for their collections.

Only specific items with certain research value will prompt some scholars to press the bidding button.

"This item is a hard rock mined from the Blackrock vein. It not only amplifies the power of Rock-type moves by 25%, but also subtly enhances a Pokémon's control over Rock-type energy..."

As the auctioneer introduced the event.

Inside the hall, people began pressing the bidding buttons continuously.

three million……

Four million two hundred thousand...

Five million eight hundred thousand...

Seeing the bidding slow down, Lu Chen raised his hand and pressed the bidding button.
