Chapter 13017
This move will definitely go down in history!
The name Lin Yi will undoubtedly become an indispensable part of the entire auction history of the God of Wealth Academy.
It remains to be seen how many people will follow suit in the future.
But one thing is certain: Lin Yi's name will spread throughout the entire Divine Realm Open Zone thanks to this unprecedented special auction.
There is much discussion from all sides.
Many people are reviewing the auction, and the more they review it, the more amazed they become.
The auctioneer kept turning back to look at the back of the room.
According to the normal procedure, the auction ends here, and the next step is the delivery process.
But he knew very well that if things really came to that, everything would be beyond repair.
It's hard to say what will happen to others, but Qian Tongtian will definitely eat people alive.
The problem is that countless eyes from all sides in the entire open area of the Divine Realm are watching this special auction today. Even Qian Tongtian would never dare to go back on his word in public.
If he dares to do that, it won't just ruin his personal image, but the reputation of the entire God of Wealth Academy.
The consequences are unimaginable!
At that time, there will be no need for anyone else; the decision-making elders of the God of Wealth Academy alone can kill him as a sacrifice in no time.
But Qian Tongtian was unwilling to accept his fate.
Just as things were getting awkward, Mr. Wu's voice suddenly rang out from VIP room number six: "Something's not right! There's something wrong with this person! I've never seen him before, so how did he manage to get into VIP room number five?"
The entire audience was stunned.
This questioning is completely illogical, and Lin Yi himself has no interest in responding to it whatsoever.
However, others quickly chimed in to agree.
"The circle of special members is only so big, and everyone knows exactly who they are. It's really not normal for such a strange face to suddenly appear."
“Yes, the rules of the God of Wealth Academy have always been open and transparent. We should at least know this person’s identity and background.”
"I'm saying, could it be that someone is pulling strings behind the scenes?"
"Some random guy suddenly appeared and picked up two of the best Immortal God equipment in the entire arena with just eighty coins. I don't believe there's nothing fishy going on behind this."
The market for conspiracy theories has always been undeniable.
After some incitement, the entire audience was immediately filled with indignation.
Ultimately, they're all just looking for a good show and enjoying the spectacle.
If Lin Yi were to actually take away the End of All Things and the Mask of Killing Intent today, even if discerning people could see through the behind-the-scenes maneuver, they would still inevitably be envious.
They would be more than happy to cause Lin Yi some trouble.
Besides, if the previous round of auctions is disregarded, it means they still have a chance to participate in the bidding again.
These are all real stakeholders.
Lin Yi frowned slightly.
Judging solely from today's auction, he has absolutely nothing to be ashamed of. Even if every single detail of the operation were publicly reviewed, a normal person would only applaud in admiration.
It's simply unreasonable for the God of Wealth Academy to deny its responsibility for this.
However, there are potential risks involved.
The most critical issue is that once that internal customer data is leaked, it would be a clear violation of regulations.
This kind of thing only weighs four ounces without being weighed, but once it's on the scale, it weighs over a thousand pounds.
Once someone seizes this weakness, not only will he lose the two immortal divine weapons he has already acquired, but it is also very likely that Zhao Gongming himself will be implicated.
This is definitely not the scene Lin Yi wanted to see.
At this moment, Qian Tongtian came from backstage to the front, his face gloomy, and said in a businesslike tone, "VIP in Box 5, please verify your identity."
His words emboldened the crowd, who erupted in a cacophony of accusations and insults.
Lin Yi narrowed his eyes: "My identity has already been verified by your academy, otherwise I wouldn't be able to enter this private room. You're asking me to prove it myself now? Is this how the God of Wealth Academy does things?"
The scene fell silent instantly, and all eyes turned to Qian Tongtian.
Qian Tongtian's expression changed slightly: "Our God of Wealth Academy has always respected every client, but today's matter is of great importance. We must consider the interests of so many clients present, so we can only trouble you to prove your identity in public."
Lin Yi asked in a low voice, "What if there's nothing wrong with my identity? Would you still keep finding other excuses and trying to get rid of my two immortal divine artifacts?"
Qian Tongtian choked for a moment.
Seeing the subtle expressions on everyone's faces, he quickly tried to salvage the situation, saying, "This guest, you've misunderstood. Our God of Wealth Academy always keeps its word, and we will never take back anything that has already been auctioned off."
"There is only one prerequisite: the process must be fair and just."
"I'm not doing this to target you; on the contrary, I'm protecting you."
"Only by cooperating with me properly, proving your identity, and demonstrating that there were no problems with the entire auction process can you avoid a lot of trouble later on."
"Otherwise, even if I hand over two immortal divine artifacts to you today, the other clients will be dissatisfied, and you may not be able to live a peaceful life in the future."
Lin Yi smirked: "You're being so kind, but your words are still a threat. Do you think I'm a three-year-old?"
Qian Tongtian's face grew even darker: "I advise you not to make a mistake for yourself."
To be honest, although his stepping forward today was a move in line with the trend, at least on the surface, it was to give an explanation to the other customers present.
But ultimately, this motive is completely untenable.
If Lin Yi persists in his accusations, he would never dare to resort to any coercive measures.
Nowadays, there are many people in and out of the God of Wealth Academy watching him closely for any mistakes he might make, and he would never dare to give anyone a handle to use against him.
The scene froze for a moment.
Upon seeing this, Young Master Wu from VIP Room Six couldn't wait to say, "Haven't you figured it out yet? He can't prove himself at all!"
"I dare say there's something fishy going on with this guy. We have to investigate him thoroughly and find out who gave him special access and made him this special member!"
As soon as he finished speaking, someone in the crowd immediately chimed in, "Young Master Wu is right. We must investigate thoroughly and find out who is behind this!"
After some incitement, the atmosphere at the scene immediately rose again.
The sentiment is exciting.
Qian Tongtian showed no intention of trying to dissuade or control the situation, and a smug look appeared in his eyes.
Now that things have come to this, he has made up his mind to use this overwhelming public opinion as a powerful force to eliminate Lin Yi from the game.
The calls grew louder and louder.
The whole situation was on the verge of spiraling out of control.
Just then, Jin Buhuan, covered in sweat, squeezed into the venue and came to Qian Tongtian: "Elder Qian, I handled Young Master Lin's special membership. The whole process was legal and compliant, and there were no problems. I can guarantee that."
The scene immediately fell silent.
Qian Tongtian frowned.
Before he could even speak, Young Master Wu from VIP room number six had already started cursing: "Who do you think you are? You think you're qualified to give people special memberships? Jin Buhuan, you really think too highly of yourself!" (End of Chapter)
