Chapter 578: Chapter 575: Rough Leather Armor

"Isn’t that Longxiang, standing behind Border Town Wanderer as a lackey?" Bai Pu was a bit curious.

Longxiang, the captain of Jiangnan University’s team, could break through the blockade of the [Blood River Territory] with his Dragon Qi Impact, which left a deep impression on Bai Pu.

"Longxiang graduated this year and joined the Jiangnan branch of the Iron Cavalry Guild," explained one of Wushan Divine Lady’s attendants nearby.

Bai Pu remained silent. He had heard of the Jiangnan branch of the Iron Cavalry Guild. In Jiangnan Base City, even the former Superstar Alliance had to show respect. Such a huge network that spanned the whole country couldn’t be compared to the Superstar Alliance.

Bai Pu grew even more curious at this thought.

"How did a regional power like the Superstar Alliance manage to invite an awakened of Dragon King’s caliber, someone standing at the peak, to join?" Bai Pu quietly inquired.

The attendants were hesitant to speak. However, after Wushan Divine Lady finished entertaining guests and returned, she provided an answer.

"Gangxin, you’re now a part of the elite combat force of advanced Awakeneds, so your perspective shouldn’t be limited to Earth or the world of the Awakeneds. Many Earth powers have numerous connections to higher worlds. There must be a deeper relationship between Dragon King and Superstar Alliance."

Bai Pu nodded thoughtfully.

At this moment, the auction was officially announced to be starting, and representatives from various factions took their assigned seats according to the seating chart.

The attendants stepped aside.

Bai Pu, Blood Spider, and Wushan Divine Lady sat together, with Bai Pu in the middle. To the left and right, the view seemed like ridges and peaks, unlike the scenery of other seasons.

"Enamored" Spring Wind confidently announced the beginning of the Fengzi Auction House’s peak auction from the high platform, facing the heroes of all directions.

It started with a warm-up performance. As the auctioneer entered, Wushan Divine Lady suddenly exclaimed softly, "Isn’t that ’Miao Luo’, the star auctioneer of Miracle Auction House, hosting this session? Interesting."

"Why would Miracle Auction House send their star auctioneer to help Fengzi Auction House with its peak auction? Aren’t the two usually competitors?" Blood Spider was a bit confused.

Bai Pu glanced over.

The female auctioneer named Miao Luo, not exactly a peerless beauty, had a pleasing appearance that one couldn’t easily look away from.

Watching Miao Luo for a longer time made one feel she had an increasing charm, naturally fostering a sense of familiarity and trust.

"Is this auctioneer very impressive?" Blood Spider asked after watching for a few seconds.

"Miao Luo is an advanced Awakened in a rare warlock profession, with extremely high charm in her hidden attributes! It’s said that her professional skills have charm enhancement effects," explained Wushan Divine Lady. "If an ordinary low-level Awakened were under her charm, they might spend a fortune on something not worth it. Of course, the people here are at least advanced Awakeneds with enough self-control, so Miao Luo’s charm serves only to please the eye."

"I bet if my aunt went on stage, she’d definitely be more charming than Miao Luo," Blood Spider said.

Wushan Divine Lady blushed slightly and retorted, "Qingyun, you’re becoming more improper..."

Bai Pu cleared his throat lightly, "The first auction item has appeared. Hmm, it’s just a piece of Blue Equipment?"

...

"As you can see, the first auction item is a Blue Armor, named ’Rough Leather Armor’," Miao Luo said with a smile. "However, it is not an ordinary Blue Armor. Please look at its first bonus attribute!"

The large screen displayed the shape of the Rough Leather Armor. The heavy leather was crudely processed and sewn together with beast tendons the thickness of chopsticks, exuding a wild aura. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

As Miao Luo spoke, the first attribute of the Rough Leather Armor was revealed.

[Power +15]

"A Blue Armor specifically for Power? And it adds 15 points?!"

Bai Pu and Blood Spider exchanged glances. Typically, even an advanced Golden Equipment would only increase attributes by about ten points, so this Blue Armor adding 15 points of Power was indeed quite exceptional.

Miao Luo smiled and said, "If this equipment only had one bonus attribute, it wouldn’t be worthy of a peak auction. Please look at its other two bonus attributes—"

Are there actually two more bonus attributes? Bai Pu was slightly surprised. He initially thought there would be just one more bonus attribute, most likely "increases xx armor".

Swoosh, two more bonus attributes were revealed.

[Endurance +15]

[Upper-body Trunk Armor +180]

The room buzzed with conversation.

Bai Pu squinted his eyes. He had an inkling of the origins of this [Rough Leather Armor].

At this moment, a notable person in the room raised their hand.

"This is an evolver’s equipment, probably from the Silver Heart Great World. Equipment for the evolver tier cannot be worn by Awakeneds. I don’t understand why you’re presenting this item. If this is the quality of Fengzi’s peak auction, it would be better to close down sooner," a murmuring discussion arose in the room.

"Please be patient, everyone. I assure you on behalf of the auction house’s reputation that this equipment can be worn by Awakeneds. Take a look at the equipment’s name section."

Miao Luo stopped withholding detail and switched images to reveal the equipment’s name:

[Rough Leather Armor (Tierless, Sealed)]

The words "Tierless" were quickly enveloped in a layer of burning red on the big screen, which then zoomed in to fill the entire screen.

"Tierless! It’s actually tierless evolver equipment." Wushan Divine Lady gasped.

Seeing the inquisitiveness in the eyes of the two young ones beside her, Wushan Divine Lady quickly explained:

"Awakened equipment is generally Tier One; evolver equipment is Tier Two. Awakeneds cannot wear Tier Two equipment—that’s common knowledge."

"However, if evolver equipment has the ’Tierless’ suffix, it means it can be worn by Awakeneds and even ordinary people! The ’Tierless’ suffix is extremely rare, maybe one in ten thousand or one hundred thousand pieces of evolver equipment, yet Fengzi Auction House obtained it. What a coup."

Upon hearing "ordinary people can wear it", Bai Pu and Blood Spider realized the significance of tierless equipment.

"But wait, this equipment is unrestricted by tier, but it should have attribute requirements, right?" Bai Pu whispered.

Wushan Divine Lady was slightly taken aback, her eyes clearing from the shock of seeing tierless equipment. She nodded affirmatively, "Yes, it depends on the attribute requirements."

The murmurs in the room gradually quieted down. Clearly, everyone had realized the underlying issue.

Miao Luo maintained her smile, though internally she sighed. Indeed, the gathered heroes at a peak auction weren’t easily fooled. Dropping the bomb of tierless equipment only caused minor ripples.

"Of course, the downside is that this Rough Leather Armor requires a basic Power of 60 points to be worn. However, this demand is already lower than many advanced Dark Gold Equipment’s requirements, but the attributes of Rough Leather Armor outperform Dark Gold Equipment."

"Now, the opening bid for the tierless evolver equipment [Rough Leather Armor] is 200,000 Spiritual Points. Please place your bids!"
