101: Chapter 101: A Diamond-Level Beast Tamer Emerges! Shocking City C!

Chen Feng, the Pavilion Master of the Myriad Beast Pavilion, acted with swift decisiveness.

After calming the mysterious elderly man and Jiang Yun,

he immediately made arrangements.

He personally led the old man to VIP Room No. 1, the most secluded room on the top floor of the auction house. This room was designed to block all outside probes, allowing only sound to be heard but no one to be seen, providing the highest level of respect and privacy.

Afterward, he invited Jiang Yun to VIP Observation Room No. 2, which had an excellent vantage point.

From here, the view was expansive, offering a complete look at the entire auction hall. One could both participate in the bidding and clearly observe the whole process and its outcome.

"Friend, please rest here for a moment; the auction will begin shortly. If you need anything, there are attendants outside the door at your service,"

Chen Feng said politely to Jiang Yun.

His tone carried a clear intention of befriending him.

Jiang Yun nodded calmly. "Thank you for your trouble, Pavilion Master."

Chen Feng smiled and cupped his hands. "You are too polite, friend. You are a distinguished guest of my Myriad Beast Pavilion. I still need to go welcome a few more VIPs, so please excuse me for now."

With that, he departed in a hurry.

The news of a Diamond Rank Aptitude Beast's appearance...

swept through the upper circles of C City at an unprecedented speed, like a mental storm centered on the Myriad Beast Pavilion.

For a time, the winds and clouds surged!

C City Hall, the Mayor's office.

Mayor Zhang Qing, who was in the prime of his life, was reviewing documents when his secretary practically stumbled in, reporting the news from the Myriad Beast Pavilion with a trembling voice.

*Clack!*

The expensive fountain pen in the Mayor's hand dropped straight onto the document, leaving a splash of ink.

He stood up abruptly.

His face was filled with extreme shock and solemnity.

"Diamond Rank?! Is the news confirmed?"

His voice was urgent.

"Absolutely! Pavilion Master Chen Feng personally released the news, and countless people saw the appraisal light screen with their own eyes!"

The Mayor paced quickly in his office, his eyes sharp.

"Diamond Rank... If the City Hall can secure it and nurture it, it would become the ultimate power to protect C City, enough to deter potential threats beyond the Misty Forest. It could even raise C City's status within the Federation and at the Provincial Level! We must strive for it!"

He immediately grabbed his coat.

"Let's go! To the Myriad Beast Pavilion at once!"

Su Family Manor, study.

Su Chengtian was listening to a report from a Family manager. When he heard the words 'Diamond Rank', his hand holding the teacup stiffened, and the thousand-gold Spirit Tea inside rippled.

He slowly put down the teacup, a sharp light flashing in his eyes. A sliver of the aura belonging to the Amethyst-rank Experts leaked out uncontrollably, making it difficult for the manager below to breathe.

"Good! A Diamond Rank! Truly, the heavens are helping me!"

A smile of determination appeared on Su Chengtian's face.

"If my Su Family can obtain this assistance, no one will ever be able to shake our position as the number one Family in C City! We might even... catch a glimpse of the larger world in the provincial capital! Even the Main Family won't look down on us anymore."

He stood up, straightened his robes, and spoke in a tone that brooked no argument. "Immediately mobilize all the liquid funds the Family can use! I will personally go and see this Diamond treasure!"

Qingquan No. 1 Middle School, Principal's office.

The Principal was reprimanding several students who had just advanced to the Advanced Class.

Because of Jiang Yun,

except for that Qin Feng,

all the students in this Advanced Class had advanced... so a new batch of Advanced Class students had to be trained.

However, the strength of these few in front of him wasn't very impressive.

After witnessing a Heaven-Defying Prodigy like Jiang Yun,

these students, who were previously considered Geniuses,

all seemed somewhat lackluster now.

Right at that moment,

his communicator suddenly rang urgently.

He was originally a bit displeased, but after hearing the incoherent report from the other side, he froze in place as if he had been hit by a binding spell.

He took a deep breath. His face first showed disbelief, which then turned into wild joy, and finally into deep concern.

"Diamond Rank... To think a Diamond Rank Aptitude Beast has appeared! The Myriad Beast Pavilion actually produced a beast with such Aptitude?"

"The appearance of this thing is both a blessing and a curse! The waters of C City are about to be thoroughly muddied!"

He glanced at the students and said in a heavy voice, "Today's classes are canceled. I have an urgent matter to handle immediately."

Having said that, he left directly.

Principal of Bedrock Middle School and Lei Lie, the Principals of Panshi Middle School and Leiting Middle School, received the news almost simultaneously.

Their reactions were surprisingly identical.

After the shock, they immediately set off.

Xiao Family.

Old Master Xiao Zhan was in the courtyard teasing a few small Beast Birds.

The butler rushed in to report.

"Diamond Rank?"

A terrifying glint erupted in Xiao Zhan's cloudy old eyes, and he didn't even notice the bird feed scattering all over the ground.

He remained silent for a moment.

Then, he let out a hearty yet slightly bitter laugh.

"Hahaha! Good! I never expected C City to produce such a divine object! A pity, a pity my Xiao Family's financial resources likely cannot compete with the Su Family... However, how can I miss such a grand event? Even if I can't buy it, I must witness it with my own eyes! If possible, it wouldn't be out of the question to use the entire clan's wealth to take it."

After all, a Diamond Rank Aptitude Beast cub,

once nurtured, would surely become a Diamond Rank existence.

If his Xiao Family obtained it,

they would bound to rise in C City.

The heads of smaller families like the Qin Family, Zhao Family, and Li Family were initially ecstatic upon hearing the news, but after estimating their own finances, it was like a bucket of cold water had been poured over them. Yet, they were still unwilling to give up and rushed to the Myriad Beast Pavilion with heavy funds. Even if there was only a one-in-ten-thousand chance, they were willing to bet everything!

Countless Loose Cultivator Beast Tamers were even more stirred by the news.

They knew they had no chance with a Diamond Rank beast, but being able to witness the ownership of such a divine object and participate in this once-in-decades event was itself a topic of conversation and a valuable experience.

The streets surrounding the Myriad Beast Pavilion

were quickly packed so tightly by the crowd that not a drop of water could trickle through.

In just a few hours,

the Myriad Beast Pavilion auction hall was already bustling with noise, with every seat filled!

Soon, these big figures arrived at the Myriad Beast Pavilion one after another,

causing a huge stir!

Pavilion Master Chen Feng stood personally at the main entrance, his face glowing with health as he repeatedly cupped his hands to welcome the various big shots, his attitude respectful yet neither humble nor arrogant.

"Mayor Zhang, Patriarch Su, Principal He... Welcome, everyone! Please, come inside!"

He led the important figures one by one into the pre-prepared VIP boxes corresponding to their status.

Inside the auction hall, the Common seating area was already overflowing, and latecomers could hardly find a place to stand.

People discussed excitedly, their eyes constantly scanning the closed doors of the VIP rooms.

"My god, all the prominent figures of C City have arrived!"

"The Mayor, the Principals of the Three Major Academies, the heads of several major families... even the small and large families of C City have come! It's been a long time since I've seen so many big figures from C City gathered at the Myriad Beast Pavilion auction hall!"

"I remember the last time was when a Diamond Rank evolution material appeared."

"After all, today's grand finale is a Diamond Rank Aptitude Beast, which is not comparable to an evolution material. Today is bound to trigger a fierce battle between dragons and tigers!"

"As for us, we can only watch the excitement and broaden our horizons! Hahaha!"

...The sound of discussion at the scene was continuous.

The atmosphere was pushed to its peak as the big shots from all sides made their appearances one after another.

A scent of invisible gunpowder

began to permeate between all the VIP rooms.

A battle for the Diamond Rank beast, which concerned the future landscape of C City, was on the verge of breaking out!
