The Supreme God of Martial Arts

Staring at the huge pitch-black tripod that towered up into the sky with a height of over a thousand meters, Austin was lost in

astonishment.

His intuition told him that the huge tripod was not as simple as it looked.

Judging from its appearance, it seemed to be a sculpture. But Austin could sense that something special was concealed inside.

In order to observe it closely, Austin took the Sect Supremo and the other five people to the broad square located at the very

center of the Graystone City.

Only by standing beside it could they sense its unparalleled and overwhelming grandeur.

With a thousand meters high and two hundred meters wide, the huge tripod exuded an oppressive aura that enveloped all of them.

Shrouded in a solemn atmosphere, everyone looked it up and down in total silence.

After a brief moment of observation, Austin released his spiritual sense to check the huge tripod.

It didn't take much tbefore his spiritual sense touched its body.

Suddenly, Austin felt a sharp pain in his Soul Sea. Then, he found that the spiritual sense he released had vanished.

Astonished, Austin's face turned grim.

This huge tripod had absorbed his spiritual sense.

"Sire, you released your spiritual sense to detect this black tripod, haven't you?"

the Sect Supremo asked as he saw Austin's expression.

"Yes,"

Austin replied with a nod. His heart was still fluttering with fear.

"I don't think this huge tripod is just a sculpture. Do you know anything about it? Could you tell me?"

Austin asked the Sect Supremo.

"Sire, this huge tripod has a history even longer than the Graystone City.

The legend goes that this place was a vast desert with burnt black gravel a thousand years ago. The Graystone City hadn't been

built at that time, and not even a blade of grass grew on this land.

It was only this huge tripod that stood here.

Later on, with the establishment of the Graystone City, it flourished and gradually becone of the most prosperous cities in the

Triangle Zone.

As to this huge tripod, nobody has ever figured out how it appeared for over a thousand years.

| suppose it should be a sculpture left from the ancient times.

But there is a very queer characteristic to this huge tripod, because it can assimilate spiritual sense. It's not the best idea to try to

probe it with that.

Many warriors who cto the Graystone City for the first thad been had when they released their spiritual sense to detect

it,"

the Sect Supremo explained.

"l see."

Austin nodded.

Having observed it for a rather long while, Austin knew it would be unlikely for him to figure it out in a short time.

Thereupon, he took the Sect Supremo and the other five people and checked in a remote inn in the city.

Because of the auction, the city was crowded with people. Because of this, the inns had hiked up their prices by huge margins.

One guest room would cost one thousand pieces of superior vital energy crystals for one night.

This was really the most expensive inn Austin had ever been to.

However, due to its distant location, it was only a very ordinary inn.

Austin cringed as he imagined the sky-high prices of the more premium inns in the heart of the city.

Early the next morning marked the beginning of the annual auction held in the Graystone City of the Triangle Zone!

Austin stepped out of the inn with the Sect Supremo and the other five people.

The head of the Wolf Gang had determined the place where the leads of the Dark Bone Gloomy Fire was auctioned and told Austin

when he entered the Graystone City.

It was the high class auction.

So Austin went in the direction of this auction.

Elbowing his way through the cramped throng of people in the street and hearing the hubbub of conversations everywhere, Austin

was truly amazed.

The auction held in the Graystone City was known as the largest one held in the South Continent of the PrMartial World. Its

nwas befitting.

Soon, Austin and his squires reached the gate of the high class auction.

Dozens of men with the Astral Realm cultivation bases guarded the gate, still-faced and stern.

Their eagle-like gazes swept forth and back across the sea of faces. Apparently they were responsible for the security work of the

auction.

With a payment of one thousand pieces of superior vital energy crystals for each person as admission fee, Austin and his followers

ambled into the auction venue.

Upon entering, the vast space stunned Austin.

This high-class auction venue was extremely spacious.

In the very center stood a platform above the ground that stretched about a hundred meters wide.

It was the platform where the auction items would be displayed!

Rows of seats spiraled up around the platform like the Colosseum.

Above the seats, a multitude of cells were suspended densely in the air, forming a large honeycomb.

They were VIP rooms.

But the number of vital energy crystals needed to access them were not small.

Austin raised his head and stared at them.

'l would be less conspicuous if | could bid in the exclusive rooms, ' Austin thought.

After a moment's reflection, Austin walked to a big red counter dozens of meters long.

A dozen charming, lovely maidens stood behind the counter.

They provided concierge services.

Austin walked to the counter and consulted with a sexy and gorgeous woman.

However, her words made Austin frown.

It turned out that a fee of three million pieces of superior vital energy crystals were required to enter the VIP rooms.

Austin's heart twitched violently.

Although it was a large sum of money, Austin gritted his teeth and paid.

Then, an equally lovely waiting maid in a traditional dress walked over

and led Austin up to his VIP room through the serpentine steps which were paved with crystal.

She was an absolute stunner, with a fit, undulating figure.

Her smooth legs walked gracefully, framed by the high side slits in her dress.

Austin followed her up the twisting crystal stairs.

He could not help but stare at her figure.

Austin swallowed, his throat dry. An inner desire made him feel a bit of discomfort.

After what felt like a long time, they arrived at a VIP room.

Austin finally could breathe again, relieved.

Observing Austin's embarrassed expression, that waiting maid shot him a crafty smile. She was hoping that this rich man would

keep her as a mistress.

It was evident that only the warriors who had deep pockets could afford these VIP rooms.

Those waiting maids didn't need to serve here for their wages once they could find themselves a rich man.

Austin walked into his room, which was delicately and elegantly decorated. He was greatly satisfied with the softness of the seats.

A huge crystal screen was laid in the room, which could display all the goings-on of the platform in the auction venue.

Meanwhile, different kinds of high-grade spiritual fruit and tea were available at his fingertips.

While Austin and his followers took their seats, the waiting maid began to make tea for them.

It turned out that every VIP room was also equipped with a waiting maid for service.

With everything prepared and set, the beginning of the auction was soon to commence.
