It takes an hour to painstakingly accumulate spirit stones, but only 10 minutes to go bankrupt.

Zhong Yi fell into deep self-doubt.

"Could it be... that there's something wrong with my playing style?"

Zhong Yi stroked his chin, lost in thought, and decided to go out and see how others played.

With Lu Ze's continuous updates and iterations, the live streaming function has developed rapidly, and many independent cultivators have made a fortune by starting their own businesses through live streaming.

With the launch of "King of Auctions", many live streaming rooms in the "Xianyuanzhou Action" section are broadcasting this mode.

Zhong Yi immediately noticed that many people in his friend list were live streaming, and casually clicked into Zhou Qiaoling's live stream.

"Hahahaha! I sold my goods! I sold another one~~~ I made another two million~~~"

【You have left the live stream.】

Zhong Yi didn't even see what happened to Zhou Qiaoling before she ran out of the live stream room.

"I can't bear to look at this; it disturbs my Dao heart... I'll change it!"

Despite the pain, Zhong Yi clutched his chest and entered Mu Yawen's live stream again.

"one two three......"

Mu Yawen frowned, counting the value of the goods on her fingers.

He chose the role of the bee doctor, whose skill allows him to see the total value of all white, green, and blue collectibles at the start of the game.

Mu Yawen did a series of calculations, which Zhong Yi found amusing because her calculations were all wrong.

"Hehe, I'll offer 80,000...wait, which idiot is offering 800,000?"

Mu Yawen looked at the published price, blinked in confusion, and then her expression changed rapidly.

Because the person who successfully bid on this warehouse of goods was himself.

"Oops!! I quoted the wrong price!!!"

"Hahahaha! It has to be Junior Brother Mu again!!"

Zhong Yi laughed until his stomach hurt, and feeling his mood had improved, he immediately rewarded Mu Yawen with a "Ten Thousand Swords Return to the Origin" skill.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Zhong, for the Ten Thousand Swords Return to Origin... Sigh, I've made you laugh at me."

Seeing the dazzling special effects in the live stream, Mu Yawen's mood did not improve at all; she remained frustrated.

Just then, a large 3x4 red 【jade screen】 suddenly appeared in the container.

"Huh??"

Mu Yawen immediately perked up.

The jade screen, valued at 840,000 yuan, instantly turned his losses into profits.

Before he could even rejoice, a 2x2 square directly below the 【Jade Screen】 spun for a long time before revealing a small red square.

A 2x2 【Double Ram Zun】 is worth 560,000!

All things considered, the total value of this container is as high as 1.7 million!

He made 900,000 in one go!

"Hahaha! It must be Senior Brother Zhong who secretly talked bad about me. Thank you, Senior Brother Zhong, thank you, thank you, thank you!"

Mu Yawen smiled, revealing her white teeth, and repeatedly clasped her hands in a fist salute to the sky.

"???"

Zhong Yi immediately stopped laughing.

"Pah! How come everyone's so lucky?!"

Zhong Yi left Mu Yawen's live stream room cursing; he hadn't come here to watch this.

"As expected... it had to be here!"

Zhong Yi sighed, his gaze fixed on Zhou Yue's live stream, a mischievous smile appearing on his lips, and he happily entered.

"Holy crap?! Old Zhou actually has 1.76 million in assets???"

Zhong Yi was startled at first, but then he immediately realized what was happening.

"Oh, this is the warehouse in the Treasure Hunt mode... Oh, never mind then."

At this moment, Zhou Yue had just exited the 【King of Auctions】 mode, and the 1.76 million spirit stones were his assets in the Treasure Hunt mode.

For a tomb raider, 1.76 million is equivalent to bankruptcy.

Seeing Zhou Yue take a deep breath and exchange 1 million spirit stones for the 【King of Auctions】 mode, Zhong Yi felt more at ease.

"I've come to the right place... This feels just like home! Hahaha!"

Zhong Yi laughed loudly.

It turns out that Zhou Yue wasn't actually not playing 【King of Auctions】, but rather that he had gone bankrupt and was going back to his hometown to get money.

Seeing his good brother suffering so much, he felt at ease.

Zhou Yue looked at the various auction maps for a long time, his eyes fixed on the higher-level maps that he still couldn't access.

The 【Secret Auction】 is open for a limited time, with an entry threshold of 10 million!

Those who enter the 【Secret Auction】 first will definitely be the strongest group in this mode!

Zhou Yue smiled gently, his heart filled with longing.

"Many people may not know what it means to win 10 million from 1.76 million..."

"To describe it in the words of my hometown, there are only two words—"

"Gambling monster!"

After saying that, he directly selected the 【Quiet Mansion】 with a threshold of 1 million on the map and entered it.

Zhong Yi was taken aback: "Wow, is Lao Zhou going all out?"

In a game where 1.76 million is being used to reduce a stake to 1 million, if you encounter a game with even a little bit of high-value information, you basically have to go all in and risk everything.

This aligns with Zhong Yi's impression of Zhou Yue.

Back then, Zhou Yue broke free from the cursed fate by constantly teetering on the brink of life and death.

"Come on! No child cries every day, no gambler loses every day."

Zhou Yue's gaze was fixed on the shipping container.

The character he used was 【Deep Blue】, which is commonly known among players as the Shield Dog.

As an instructor, Deep Blue's character skill is the same as Laboon's in the original work: 【Light of Enlightenment】.

The effect is that at the start of each round, two completely unknown information items—the outline and quality of the collectible—are randomly displayed.

This is a character that exerts equal strength in every round. Because its outline can be displayed, it is very likely to obtain key information at the beginning of the game and successfully steal a win.

"This is my first time entering a million-dollar arena. Let me see what the drop rates are like..."

As Zhou Yue was speaking, his breath hitched as the first round of his ability was activated.

What appeared before him was a massive collection of red quality, a whopping 15 squares in size!

The live stream chat was instantly flooded with comments.

【Holy crap?! 15 squares?! And it's red???】

【This must be at least two million!!】

【All in! All in!】

【The streamer has been possessed?? Could this be a trap Zhou Yue encountered??】

【Seeing such a huge red sign right off, his sister must have taken over!】

...

"Damn it! You're the one who should let your sister take over!!"

Zhou Yue laughed and scolded, quickly calming his inner excitement.

In this round, he had a significant advantage in information over others and was determined to win!

"Calm down, calm down..."

Zhou Yue glanced at the roles of the others.

There are two Mai Xiaowens and one bee doctor; both are initial characters.

Without using any tools, the Bee Doctor would definitely not know anything about Red.

Mai Xiaowen might have seen red, but she couldn't possibly have known it was such a large red.

"Trying to go all in at once... no way, you won't make much money that way." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

Zhou Yue suppressed the urge to take it all at once.

Because once Mai Xiaowen sees a red flag, her offer won't be too low.

To win the first round, you'd need to spend twice as much as the second-place player, which would inevitably be a hefty price.

So he decided to put on a show.

Zhou Yue offered a price of 380,000, firstly to prevent Mai Xiaowen from raising the price and snapping up the warehouse, and secondly to pretend that he saw a red item, but a cheap one.

When the results of the first round of bidding came out, Zhou Yue breathed a sigh of relief.

Because contestant number 1, Mai Xiaowen, offered 600,000 yuan, it's clear she's seeing potential in the market.

If he bids too low, he'll be cheated by contestant number 1, Mai Xiaowen.

If he quotes too high a price, the other party will find out about Da Hong's information.

"As expected! Luckily, I was shrewd enough! This is a gambling monster!"

Zhou Yue laughed triumphantly, pleased with his own courage.

"I won't let you win this round!"

Zhou Yue sneered, and the price suddenly jumped to 1 million!

Even if the other party still asks for 600,000, I have enough to win it!

However, the result disappointed him.

"What?! He raised it to 800,000???"

Zhou Yue was shocked.

Why was my disguise so well in the first round, yet the other party saw through it?

"Could it be... that he saw two reds?"

Zhou Yue immediately made a deduction, but analyzing these things now is useless.

Because all four players knew that the container had been shipped!

The competition was even fiercer in the third round.

All four offers exceeded 1 million!

Even with Zhou Yue offering 1.5 million, he still couldn't win!

At this point, Zhou Yue was completely out of control.

red.

Bright red.

15 squares of bright red.

He had never seen anything so awesome before!

"Alright, alright... lighting sky lanterns, huh? Come on! Let me see how rich you are!!"

Zhou Yue's eyes were bloodshot, and he immediately chose to reveal all his assets!

1917563!

"All in!"

Zhou Yue pressed the bidding button with great enthusiasm.

At this point, the players' wallets were indeed not full enough, and Zhou Yue's 1.91 million stood out from the crowd, successfully securing the warehouse of goods.

"Hahaha! We got it! We got it!!"

Zhou Yue felt a surge of triumph, a true winner in life.

He watched slowly as the goods inside the container rotated outward, one compartment at a time.

Just as he expected, there was more than one red item in the warehouse. There was a small red item in the first row, but it was cheaper, worth less than 100,000.

After several rows, the total value of the entire warehouse was still less than 300,000.

However, Zhou Yue was not in a hurry, because the 15-slot big red was a bottom-tier item!

"Fellow Daoists, even a small profit is still a profit... This is the first step in my gambling career!"

Seeing that the warehouse was about to run out of stock, Zhou Yue's eyes practically popped out of their sockets.

Only now did he understand what it meant to long for something so long.

"Here it comes... Everyone, get your screenshots ready!"

"Let us witness together the birth of the first 15-segment big red!"

"It is..."

"...【Bigeye tuna】 What the hell is that???"

Zhou Yue rubbed his eyes, thinking he had misread it.

One, two, three, four...

He counted and counted.

It is indeed 15 squares, in red.

It is a huge fish.

Priced at 294,000, the value of a single unit is less than 20,000.

Zhou Yue's face instantly turned even redder than the 1.2 million yuan loss figure.

"Grass!!!"

"We'll stop broadcasting for now..."

"I'm going to kill a fish demon in the Sea of ​​Burial Souls first!!!"
