Once he woke up, he quickly got ready. He wolfed down some food as fast as he could and then quickly went to change his appearance to that of Long Tian and then headed towards the auction.
The auction was hosted by the Hunters Union. It was due to this that the auction had great fame. Similar to the compet.i.tions, the auction was also split up into multiple sections. The qi condensation section of the auction was being held at a famous auction hall which was part of the hunters union. Usually, this place held general auctions every week, but just for today, there was a special event happening. The other auctions were done in more famous and important halls in the city. The qi condensation auction did not have much importance in the grand scheme of things.
When Bai Yun arrived in front of the auction hall, he saw a large crowd waiting in front of it. Even though the VIP seats were already bought, the general seats could be reserved earlier, or tickets for entry could be bought on venue. The people waiting here were all who were hoping for a chance to enter the hall. But Bai Yun did not think that any of them would be able to buy anything even if they went inside. If they couldn't buy a ticket earlier, that means that they were lacking money and connections.
Bai Yun skipped this place and went to the side door. The side door was for VIP seats only. It was done so that they could escape the hubbub of the people outside.
When Bai Yun reached the side entrance, he was blocked by a guard. The guard was there to ensure that no one who was not supposed to be there was let in. The side entrance was empty, as not a lot of people would be there to use it.
After Bai Yun showed him his hunter's union id and the guard verified his name on the list, he was allowed inside the auction house. Once he entered, he found himself in a narrow well lit corridor. There was a young lady waiting for him there.
"h.e.l.lo. Young Master Long. Where can I take you?" She asked.
"Zhang Zi." Bai Yun replied.
The lady smiled and then walked away, with Bai Yun following her. She led him to a door and then waved him inside.
Bai Yun thanked her and then walked into the room. The auction house had multiple VIP rooms, and each room was booked by different people or factions. The VIP rooms of the auction house were situated above the general area and each had special materials that made it possible for people to look outside from the room but not for people outside to see inside. But it was also possible to deactivate them so that it would become transparent. Some people who enjoyed others watching them used to do this. Zhang Zi was not someone who enjoyed beying the center of attention, so he had kept his room closed from outside, which was just fine with Bai Yun.
Bi Yun entered the room looked around. The room was s.p.a.cious about forty feet by forty feet and well furnished. In the middle was a small table filled with delicacies and fruits. Zhang Zi was sitting next to the table eating something. He was the only person in the room.
Zhang Zi stood up when he saw Bai Yun enter the room. "Ha. You came. I wasn't sure that you would." He exclaimed.
Bai Yun looked at Zhang Zi. Unlike when they met during the gold test, Zhang ZI was currently wearing luxurious clothes. Earlier all of his clothes were practical and made for battle. But now the only thing that was similar to the Zhang Zi he met back then was the fact that he still carried his spear with him. He was a true spearman in that sense. His demeanor had changed completely, from a battle maniac to a prim and proper young master.
Seeing Bai Yun staring at him, Zhang Zi laughed. "I know what you are thinking about. But there is nothing I could do. Since I need to appear before people my grandfather forced me to go out in this getup. Even if no one sees me, I still need to dress up."
Bai Yun looked over him once again. As Zhang Zi's grandfather was the chairman of the council of elders of the Little Merchant Union, it was obvious that all of Zhnag Zi's clothes were extremely rich. But even then Bi Yun could not understand how Zhang Zi became a battle maniac considering that his entire family were merchants.
"It truly is difficult to recognize you like this. For a moment I wondered if I went into the wrong room." Bai Yun joked.
He entered the room alongside Zhang ZI and the two of them sat down. They picked up some food and started to eat while chatting with each other. They purposefully ignored important topics and stayed to more common ones. Throughout the talk, Zhang Zi tried multiple times to find out Bai Yun's ident.i.ty but he skillfully dodged all the questions.
Zhang Zi grew tired of the answers to his questions and finally decided to try the direct approach. He preferred it anyway. "So, during the last two months I have tried to find out about your ident.i.ty quite a lot, but all I got was nothing. Its almost like you just appeared out of thin air. Later on, I found out that you were wearing a disguise the whole time during the gold test. Do you have any reason to hide who you are?" He asked.
Bai Yun responded by calmly taking a deep sip of the wine, and turned to face Zhang Zi with a smile. "Everybody is ent.i.tled to their own secrets. This is mine. Don't worry, I don't mean any harm. I'm just a little shy." Bai Yun replied.
The air between the two of them got tense. Bai Yun's finger which held his storage ring started to t.i.tch, while Zhang Zi started to reach for his spear. Just as it seems as if the two of them were due for a rematch, they heard a noise from outside that stopped them in their tracks.
The two of them turned to see that someone had entered the VIP room next to them. The room was opaque and the two of them turned to see Bai Qing in the next room.
The room next door was booked by the Bai clan. Bai Qing had shown up with some of his lackeys looking resplending. He had done so in order to improve his image in the public eye. But he was not the only one in the room. A few other people from Bai clan had also come to the room to partic.i.p.ate in the auction.
Zhang Zi and Bai Yunstared at each other and then simultaneously calmed down. They tacitly agreed that this was not a good place to battle.
The different major forces in Yellow city all had their own rooms. Almost all of them had left their rooms open as they needed to show off their prestige. In many cases, the prestige was more important than power, as almost all the forces were nearly equal in power and power is not easy to change quickly.
But neither Bai Yun nor Zhang Zi cared much for the fanfare, so they kept their rooms locked and hidden. They also did not tell anyone who they were, as they did not want anyone to know or interrupt them.
Suddenly the door to the room swung open. The two of them who were watching the other rooms were surprised by this. The room was only designated for the two of them, and they had already told the people of the auction house not to enter. So they were surprised by the intrusion.
When they turned to look at the person who entered the room, their jaws. .h.i.t the floor. Standing in front of the room was Song Hui. She was dressed in a flowing golden dress that made her look like a grown-up. She was followed by a maid, who was standing while holding her head in her hand.
But what made the two of them surprised was the fact that Song Hui's chest was bulging. The size of the two globes on her chest was even bigger than her head.
"Big brother Zi, big brother Tian, long time no see." She shouted as she bounced inside the room.

Zhang Zi and Long Tian stared at each other. The two of them could swear that when they met her two months ago, her chest was as flat as a washboard. They had no idea what happened.
"What are you doing here." Ba Yun asked her.
"I heard that you guys were here, so I came to chat. No one else from my family came here, so I was bored." She replied.
As the two of them stared at her, they were surprised. At first, they were taken aback, but it only took a single look for them to realize that the bulges in her chest were not natural. They looked more like balloons.
"Little Hui," Zhang Zi asked slowly, "what happened to your chest."
"Oh, this."Song Hui explained. "Big sis told me about it. She said that men are easily swayed by big chests. So I made it big."
By the time Bai Yun calmed Zhang Zi down and saved the city from an unnecessory homicide, the auction was set to begin.
