The people who had watched the events unfold all looked at Lin Tian in disbelief.

They all began to guess Lin Tian's true identity.

This brat called Lin Tian, just who was he to make Master Ma protect him even though he had offended the Scarlet Wolf Mercenary Company's Guild Leader.

The Clear Pavilion had two rules. Firstly, no one was allowed to act in the Clear Pavilion, and secondly, the Clear Pavilion had always been a neutral place. No matter what, it would never have any conflicts with the major powers of the Heavenly Thunder City.

But now because of this Lin Tian, Master Ma had broken the rules set by the two Clear Pavilion.

Ma Feng's expression was also somewhat ugly. He waved his hand towards the black clothed people behind him. Those black clothed people immediately understood and immediately began to disperse the crowd that was still watching.

The crowd discussed animatedly, but they also knew that this Master Ma was already angry. If they continued to stay, they were afraid that they would be angered by Ma Feng's thunderous fury.

Not long after, everyone was chased out of the Qing Xuan Pavilion by the guards. The large hall had suddenly become empty.

Only Li Wan'er, Lei Bao, Lin Tian, and Ma Feng remained.

Li Wan'er and Lei Bao were also shocked by Lin Tian's domineering decision.

He actually dared to be so decisive in the Clear Pavilion. He didn't hold back his emotions in the slightest as he directly killed the Scarlet Wolf, Lang Lie.

Lei Bao knew about Lang Lie's origins. He was originally the leader of a small mercenary group, but later on he led his mercenary group and directly went to the Red Wolf's side.

Due to this, Lang Lie's position among the Scarlet Wolves was not low either. Deep within the trust of the Scarlet Wolf's two captains, one was Crimson Fire, and the other was Wolf Formless, these two were regarded as his trusted aides. But now that Lin Tian had killed Lang Lie in such a thunderous fashion, the Scarlet Wolf definitely would not let this matter rest.

The so called Guild Leader Chi was the leader of the Scarlet Wolf Mercenaries, Crimson Flame. He was an expert at the eighth level of the Aurous Core Stage and was one of the top experts in the entire Heavenly Thunder City.

Li Wan'er naturally knew of the identity of that Crimson Flame, so she too was extremely worried. Furthermore, looking at Ma Feng's current expression, he was even more gloomy. It was obvious that he was extremely angry.

She was hesitating on whether she should go up and plead with Ma Feng, but seeing Lin Tian's gaze, she immediately gave up on this idea.

This was because Lin Tian seemed to know her thoughts. His gaze just now had indicated for her to stand where she was and not move.

Lin Tian did not move as well. He naturally knew the rules of the Clear Pavilion, but Lang Lie had been killed on purpose because the first Lang Lie had publicly insulted him. With Lin Tian's vengeful nature, he naturally could not swallow his anger.

The other point was that Lin Tian wanted to test Ma Feng's bottom line.

After Ma Feng found out about his identity as a Symbol Master, he was extremely pleased with Lin Tian. Previously, Lin Tian couldn't understand, but later on, Lin Tian thought it through.

The reason for all this was because of the imaginary master he was talking about.

Lin Tian wasn't even seventeen this year, but his Symbol Dao cultivation was already a high-grade Symbol Master. That Ma Feng was also a high-grade Symbol Master, but Ma Feng was already fifty to sixty years old.

This made Ma Feng want to befriend him. Of course, the final goal was for Lin Tian's non-existent master.

Breaking through to a high-grade Symbol Master at such a young age was undoubtedly due to his amazing talent, but the guidance from a master teacher was also an extremely crucial factor.

Thus, this was the main reason why Ma Feng wanted to please Lin Tian.

If Ma Feng could pass through Lin Tian and get to know Lin Tian's master with an extremely high rune cultivation, as long as he could get a little guidance from Lin Tian's master, then Ma Feng's strength would increase by another level. A martial artist's lifespan was also limited, but if Ma Feng's rune cultivation could improve, then his lifespan would also greatly increase.

After understanding this level, Lin Tian wanted to test how much Ma Feng could tolerate from him.

Originally, Lin Tian hadn't thought it through, but since that blind Lang Lie had come out to die, Lin Tian had borrowed him to test Ma Feng.

As expected, although Ma Feng was very angry, he was the only one who was sulking and didn't dare to show it.

When he turned around and saw Lin Tian again, Ma Feng had already suppressed his anger.

Lin Tian on the other hand, spoke up first: "Brother Feng, I'm really sorry. I didn't hold back my anger and gave you trouble …"

"It's one of us, why are you being so courteous?" Ma Feng heard Lin Tian apologized and did not know what to say. He comforted Lin Tian and then said: "That person is just a small role of the Scarlet Wolf, provoking junior brother Lin, killing him is fine, but for this matter, I will find the Scarlet Flame and explain clearly, not letting him find trouble with you, if he really dares to find trouble with you, you can come find me, as my elder brother, I will support you no matter what."

"Thank you, Brother Feng." Lin Tian pretended to be extremely moved.

Ma Feng laughed out loud: "We're on the same side, there's no need to be polite. Let's go, the auction is about to begin, let's go in together."

Saying that, he enthusiastically pulled Lin Tian towards the auction venue.

The Qing Xuan Hall's auction venue was located in this large hall, and was an extremely secretive space.

As soon as they entered the door, Lin Tian saw the maid, Malan'er who had led them in.

When Ma Feng saw Ma Lan'er, he immediately greeted her: "Lan'er, for this auction, you will be the one to attend to little brother Lin Tian Xian."

After speaking, he turned to Lin Tian Yu and said, "Brother Lin Xian, I still need to host the auction, so I won't be accompanying you. If there's anything you want, feel free to tell Lan'er that our Qing Xuan Pavilion has bid for you."

Lin Tian nodded his head: "Many thanks Brother Feng, I'll be troubling Brother Feng."

Ma Feng left with a smile on his face.

As Malan saw Ma Feng leave, she also said, "Sir Lin, Little Sister Wan'er, please follow me."

Lin Tian, Li Wan'er and Lei Bao immediately followed Ma Lan'er to a private room.

"Lan'er will wait on you outside. If you need me, please ring the bell on the table. I will hear you." After saying that, she stood outside the room.

Lin Tian directly entered the private room. The private room was unusually quiet, but the tables, chairs, and refreshments were all there.

Li Wan'er sighed and said, "This is the most top-notch treatment. Our Li family has business dealings with the Clear Pavilion all year round, but they don't have this treatment either. There aren't many rooms of this level, and it's even with Malan personally attending to them …"

Lin Tian slightly smiled, but did not reply. Li Wan'er did not understand the reasoning behind it, and he had no need to say it.

"Everyone." Right at this moment, an aged voice suddenly sounded from the auction stage.

Lin Tian raised his head to look. It was precisely Ma Feng who had just left in a hurry.

"Grandpa Ma has always been the host of the auction, because all the buyers and sellers only believe in his eyes." Li Wan'er explained, "Only Grandpa Ma can manage the bidding and make an accurate offer. Everyone believes that, especially those buyers, they are all here for Grandpa Ma's reputation."

Lin Tian nodded his head, expressing his understanding.

"Everyone, it's truly an honor for our Qingxuan Pavilion to have all of you come here today." Ma Feng politely said to the crowd at the auction venue. He then said: "This time, I won't waste any more of my words. I will directly go to the auction venue."

After saying this, Ma Feng waved his hand towards the female servants behind the auction stage. Those female servants carried all kinds of items and walked towards the front of the stage. However, there was a layer of red cloth wrapped around all of these items, causing one to be unable to clearly see what was hidden within.

Ma Feng looked at those items and said: "This time, our Clear Xuan Pavilion spent months of effort before choosing the twelve most valuable items from the various auctions. All sorts of treasures, secret manuals, divine weapons, medicinal pills, and even demon beast eggs should be there.

"Master Ma, that's enough. Stop being suspenseful. This isn't the first time we've come here. Hurry up and start. I can't wait any longer." At this moment, someone in the audience couldn't help but call out to Ma Feng. It was obvious that he was a regular customer here.

"Alright, alright, alright. Since Young Master Zhang can't wait any longer, I won't waste any more time. Let's go first!" Ma Feng waved to the first maid behind him. That maid immediately walked up with the first item in her hands.

"This first item is a godly weapon!" Ma Feng lifted up the red cloth and revealed a biting sword light.

It was actually a longsword.

"This sword is a Spirit Level Divine Weapon." Ma Feng introduced the crowd.

"Spirit level?" Everyone in the audience was instantly in a state of turmoil. Having come to so many auctions, this was the first time they had encountered such a godly weapon.

Lin Tian naturally knew that Divine Weapons had different grades. They were divided into Common Grade, Spirit Grade, Earth Grade, and Heaven Grade, and each grade was divided into upper, middle, and lower ranks.

All grade weapons were called Spirit Treasures. Even common grade Spirit Treasures were much more powerful than ordinary weapons.

For a city like the Heavenly Thunder City, having a Common Grade Totem was already pretty good. But now, it was actually a Spiritual Grade Divine Weapon. This made everyone incomparably excited.

Ma Feng did not beat around the bush and directly stated his price. "Although this Spirit Level Divine Weapon is only a Low Rank Spiritual Grade weapon, its power cannot be underestimated. So the starting price is 1000 gold coins! "

"A thousand gold!" Everyone couldn't help but cry out in alarm.

A thousand gold coins was not a small amount. Even for the powerful families in the Heavenly Thunder City, the amount of wealth they had was not a small amount.

Lei Bao even opened his eyes wide as he looked at the sword in disbelief. He shouted, "Oh my god, our Lei Bao mercenary group worked hard to accept missions in the past year and could only earn 200 gold coins. That's already pretty good, but now this sword is actually worth 1000 gold coins?"

Mercenaries wanted wealth, but martial artists wanted strength. This sword was a spirit level divine weapon, and although it was a low grade spirit level weapon, with Lin Tian's current level of the third level of the Qi Hai realm, when he obtained this sword, he would be able to fight against a fifth level Qi Hai warrior. He would be invincible.

A divine weapon like this could easily crush a cultivator of the same cultivation level, or even challenge cultivators of a higher cultivation level. It wasn't a difficult matter.

Sure enough, at this moment, the people below the stage started to bid enthusiastically.

Not long after, the price was raised to 1500 gold coins, which was eventually sold to a buyer for 1800 gold coins.

Lin Tian on the other hand didn't bid. He had the Dragon Scale Spear and was ten thousand times stronger than this sword.
