'Hehe, there'll definitely be important figures tonight,' Kael thought. His mind raced through possibilities. 'The Mei Kingdom Royals, Mid-Tier Sects, and the Three Ducal Families. Every one of them will send representatives. The Queen of Mei Kingdom might even participate personally, since it's unlikely the King would bother. I hope to get at least one more ancient fragment this time. And some of those techniques and items would be great for research too...'
Excitement built in his chest.
This Rising Dragon Auction was definitely large scale. The most popular yearly event in Mei Kingdom. People talked about it for months after. Deals made here could change lives, bringing fortunes or misfortune. Even in terms of political power.
The auction gathered forces from within and across territories surrounding Mei Kingdom, not just local powers. Cultivators from neighboring kingdoms and merchants from distant cities. Everyone who mattered would attend or send representatives.
