Seeing this, Rei smiles and says. "8 large platinum coins will start the bidding."

Hearing this, everyone's' jaws nearly dropped, that were not with Yueliang, thinking to themselves. 'SO CHEAP!!' Thus they immediately started the bidding.

This being that while most people use magic in this world, and it does help with most things, there are some aspects that either have yet to be explored or cannot be made up for with magic. One such example being that, with magic you cannot learn more about anything else except for magic, and the way things work in the world to a degree. Well, this being true if someone was trying to say gain knowledge on how to cook, just by learning magic.

"10 Large Platinum!" One commoner on the base floor announces.

"20 Large Platinum." Another bids.

....

This continuing on for a good 5 minutes, before all that were left were the royalty of different countries.

"500 Large Platinum!" King Chilperic announces with a proud look on his face expecting the others to not try to fight him for it.

"800 large platinum." King Uther says casually, not really caring about such a small amount of wealth. However how could someone who is the central hub of trade currently, really even care about such an amount.

The king from the desert country chimes in this time hoping to obtain these 'treasures' saying. "1200 large platinum."

"..."

"1,200 Large Platinum going once." Rei says after not hearing another bid for a few seconds.

"1,200 Large Platinum going twice. Anyone else going to top this?" He asks hopefully.

"...."

"1,200 Large Platinum going..."

"1,500 Large Platinum." King Chilperic says, feeling this is a wise offer.

"1,500!!" The people around him exclaim in surprise, not expecting their small kingdom to have so much.

"Wonderful, 1,500 Large Platinum going once." Rei says excitedly.

"1,500 Large Platinum going twice. Last chance everyone."

"1,500 Large Platinum going thrice, and sold to king Chilperic of the physical practitioners!" Rei exclaims excitedly before continuing. "I am sorry to make this auction seem a little short, but let us begin the second half now."

'Phew, for a moment there I thought we would end up losing money. Instead we have gained a fortune for the older tech of my world.' Yueliang thought to himself watching this with a smile and a drop of sweat on his forehead.

A few moments after saying that, a capsule is wheeled out under a sheet, by one of the few goblins in the town, although the others still perceived it as human because of the [ Illusion Arm Band ].

Pulling off the cloth sheet covering it, Rei says. "Alright, so this item is used to train your people. We have 5 of these training capsules, you can try and obtain them all or just get one, as they will be auctioned separately. Also, while this may sound like a regular training item, your time inside is sped up by about 10 times or more. There is also the bonus of having skills and abilities from another world learnable from this device. Thus without further ado let us begin at 50 Large Platinum"

Hearing this the commoners nearly roared their bids as this could get them out of the middle class and into nobility if what was said was true. Thus the bidding has begun.

"100 Large Platinum."

"150 Large Platinum."

"200 Large ..."

"300"

The bids continued to rise until eventually '800' was reached, and Rei says. "800 going once."

"800 going twice."

"800 going thrice, and sold to the gentleman in the back." Rei says seeing a shadowy figure in a dark cloak.

---- Meanwhile Elsewhere ----

"Well Meiren, I have seen enough how about you?" Yueliang asks, feeling satisfied by the results, and wanting to do something while they wait.

With her eyes glued to the auction, she says. "Mhmm, sounds good."

"Alright, just wake me up when they are done." Yueliang says with soul communication to make sure she heard him.

Waking from her daze Meiren watches Yue walk over to a couch on the side, then lay down putting a pillow beneath his head. Then she just nods before turning back to the auction.

'Well at least she aknowleged what I said, she must really enjoy such things. Probably a good idea I did not give her my wallet or I might find it empty as she has fun purchasing things.' Yueliang thinks to himself as he closes his eyes and begins drifting off to sleep.

---- A Few Hours Later ----

"Yue ... Wake Up. ... Wake Up. ... Fine you give me no choice." Meiren says while patting his face with her paw. Bringing her paw back, she gets low, then jumps high into the air, nearly hitting the ceiling, and falling, she lands directly on his stomach.

"Pwah. I am awake, what is going on?" Yueliang asks with wide eyes, before seeing Meiren on his stomach and understands. "So I take it the auction has finished now?"

"It will be after this item is paid for. Shall we start heading down, so you can greet your guests, as you have wanted since the beginning? I mean it was the reason you wanted to come here right?" Meiren asks in a soft and relaxed voice.

"Regardless, thank you for waking me up. I will be up in just a moment." Yueliang says while trying to catch his breath, and Meiren jumping off of his stomach.

A few seconds later, Yueliang gets off of his bed, and then begins walking towards the door he came in. Xue Meiren following closely behind. Heading down the stairs they quickly make it to main hall before seeing a whole crowd of people leaving.

"Well this is certainly going to make thing a little slower." Xue Meiren comments in a low growl.

"At least this makes things easier."

"How so?"

"Well it means that now, we can just wait by the stairs rather than outside in the hot sun." Yue replies.

"True we can wait by thee stairs, however to correct your earlier statement. It is actually cloudy outside."

Yue feels excited and says. "I love cloudy days, although how can you tell?"

"Easy, I can feel it. There is a difference in the pressure in the air."

Dumbfounded he replies. "I get that there is a difference in pressure in the air, but how can you actually even feel that?"

"Well just like people with particular injuries that feel pain or something based on the change in humidity, we animals feel the pressure in the air. How else do you think we avoid storms and other things so easily. Although, fun fact, did you know humans can do it as well?"

"Really? Why have I not heard of this until now?"

"Mhmm, humans used to learn this instinctually. The kicker is that the more you progress technologically, the more you lose of your previous abilities. I am sure you could figure it out pretty easily, but the more you make your life easier the less your body feels the need to adapt and learn. It is similar with cultivation, the easier you take it, the less firm your foundation will be. In turn making you as weak as blade of grass." Xue Meiren explains.

"Thank you for the explanation. It makes sense and you are right." Yueliang comments.

"Mmm, well they are coming down, so what do you want to do?"

"Well, we should probably step to the side, and wait." Yueliang says while moving to the side of the stair case, with Meiren sticking close by his side. While waiting for their guests arrival, Yue notices the crowd thinning with each passing second.

Seeing them coming down the stairs Yueliang says. "Hello my guests. I apologize for not greeting you earlier, however there was something I had to take care of first."

King Uther speaks first in reply. "It is alright, and the auction was certainly better than I thought. We all obtained various items that will further the progress of not just our kingdoms but this world in time."

Yueliang hearing this, looks at all of them and says. "Well I am glad you all seemed to have enjoyed this auction, there will be more in the future. Also, I hope you have fun exploring the world and solar system with what you have obtained. While there are more advanced things, we can provide, we figured, it should be one leap at a time, lest you harm yourselves before even figuring out what you have."

"Very wise of you, although it is a pity that we cannot enjoy such benefits sooner." King Chilperic comments.

"Well, how about we show you all the products of King Uthers' mens' effort? I am sure King Uther will be quite pleased. As well as any of the rest of you who decide to utilize our services." Yueliang asks while closely observing their reactions.
