Chu Kuangsheng flicked her forehead with a finger. "You don't need to worry too much about the deaths of those Beast Tamers. Although their deaths were innocent, they had already mentally prepared for death before entering the Secret Realm.

This was also a crisis that came with the Secret Realm, and it has nothing to do with you."

He could tell Mingxi's solemnity when she saw those videos. Although she had a resolute personality and wasn't a thoughtless do-gooder, she was still a kind-hearted Xiao Guniang who respected life.

She would more or less attribute those people's deaths to herself.

Mingxi was indeed a little uncomfortable.

No matter how many reasons there were, whether it was an excuse or the truth, the deaths of these people were indeed related to her obtaining the Formless Chess.

Without this incident, they wouldn't have died.

Of course, she wasn't so spineless as to insist on putting herself on a pedestal.

There was no need.

She couldn't bear the responsibility either.

Moreover, she wasn't the killer, nor was she the culprit.

She was just a little wistful, that's all.

So, she actually didn't have much psychological burden, but she still greatly appreciated Instructor Chu's comfort.

Even the strongest people have soft spots and need the attention and gentleness of friends and family.

Mingxi didn't plan on turning herself into a heartless, emotionless fighting machine.

She would always remain a flesh-and-blood human being.

"Oh, right. Because of this trip to the Silent Mystery Realm, the Xiao Li Country's government plans to hold an auction, mainly to auction pet beast eggs.

Those of us Beast Tamers who entered the Secret Realm and returned alive need to provide ten or more pet beast eggs for them to use as auction items."

Chu Kuangsheng came to find Mingxi early in the morning mainly to inform her of this matter.

Mingxi raised an eyebrow. "Is it mandatory?"

"Obviously."

Chu Kuangsheng gave a mocking laugh. "But it's not too excessive. Although it's to solve the rapid expansion of the Secret Realm rift, the Xiao Li Country did indeed invest a lot of resources to build the Secret Realm passage.

It's understandable that they want to recoup some losses through the auction. Besides, they're not taking those ten pet beast eggs for free; they'll give us a cut."

"What's the commission rate?"

"For the ten mandatory eggs, the Xiao Li Country will take 80% of the Sold Price."

Upon hearing this, Mingxi rolled her eyes.

Good heavens!

An 80% commission is definitely a high commission in the auction world of this world.

Among the commissions Mingxi knew, 50% was already considered very high.

The Xiao Li Country's desire to squeeze every last drop out of them was not hidden at all.

"Wow! How amazing!

How can they be so generous?

They're actually leaving 20% for us. Isn't that too good for us?

Taking this 20% of the auction price is simply taking a huge advantage."

Mingxi sneered with a pursed lip.

Chu Kuangsheng rarely saw her looking so sarcastic.

He couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"Don't be mad. Anyway, they haven't specified the quality or type of pet beast eggs, so just submit ten random ones."

"Instructor, you're a big scoundrel. Don't you think they might manipulate things at the auction?

Who are the people who can enter the Silent Mystery Realm?

Almost all of them are top Beast Tamers, and there are also us Starsea Cup contestants.

Do you think they might have the auctioneer deliberately reveal some special information during the auction?

For example..."

She cleared her throat and said in a clear, elegant broadcasting voice: "This ordinary land turtle pet beast egg, about to be auctioned, is provided by this year's Starsea Cup popular contestant, the male contestant most desired by male viewers, No. 2, the sexy siren in the hearts of female viewers, No. 3, the Dragonflower Country's Chu family's crown prince, Chu Kuangsheng.

You can't sleep with the male god, but you can own what he has touched, and even love--"

"Stop!"

Seeing that she was about to utter even more embarrassing words, Chu Kuangsheng, with a face full of black lines, quickly stopped her.

"Don't say any more."

Chu Kuangsheng looked at Mingxi, who was laughing so hard she was bent ◆ Nоvеlіgһt ◆ (Only on Nоvеlіgһt) over, with a speechless expression. "You Xiao Zaizi, you really dare to say anything!"

"I'm telling the truth. Given the Xiao Li Country's usual behavior, what I'm saying might just be the tip of the iceberg."

Chu Kuangsheng: "..."

He couldn't refute it.

"My popularity is nowhere near yours. So, you should be the one worrying."

Mingxi looked indifferent: "But I don't have those embarrassing, publicly voted labels like you."

During the Starsea Cup, all sorts of messy popular vote activities sprang up like mushrooms after rain, one after another.

The mundane ones, for example: the strongest contestant in the audience's mind; the most anticipated contestant; the audience's favorite ten matches; the most beautiful female contestant; the most handsome male contestant, and so on.

The quirky ones: the contestant's habit the audience hates most; the ten matches the audience regretted watching most; the contestant with the most flamboyant fighting style, and so on.

And then there were the ones that were suggestive or messed with contestants' mental states, like the top ten male contestants male viewers most wanted to pounce on, the top ten contestants whose butts they most wanted to pinch...

Because of his looks and temperament, Chu Kuangsheng was like a chosen one in this regard.

He was selected for quite a few.

As for herself, probably due to her age, the audience didn't target her.

"...You win."

Chu Kuangsheng was speechless. He had indeed considered what she said, but unfortunately, there was no way to break such an open scheme.

Mingxi thought about the pet beast eggs in her spatial artifact, enough to wipe out a pet beast breeding center.

She asked, "If I want to provide more pet beast eggs for the Xiao Li Country government to auction, what about the commission?"

Chu Kuangsheng had naturally looked into this question.

"They weren't greedy about this; they only asked for a 10% commission. If you want to sell pet beast eggs, this auction is indeed an opportunity."

Because of the Starsea Cup and the international exchange conference, Saint Shield City was a mix of all sorts of people during this period, with many important figures arriving.

They would certainly be invited to the auction then.

Selling pet beast eggs at the auction would definitely be more cost-effective than selling them to a breeding center.

Of course, the prerequisite was that the pet beast eggs Mingxi provided couldn't be the common, widespread kind.

"I understand."

Then she would sell a batch at the auction first.

The rest would be dealt with after returning to Dragonflower Country. Some would be handed over to the Elder Council, and the remaining part would be traded with the Chu family. In short, she would handle both human relations and money, making sure both aspects were strong.

Of course, she wouldn't sell particularly precious and rare pet beast eggs.

After all, she wasn't without people she cared about in this world. Her 'cheap dad' was also a Beast Tamer who was eager to grow and had good talent.

There were also her good friends like Fu Yifan, Shao Dingding, Lu Yun Shen, and others.

Giving them away directly was impossible; it could easily lead to resentment if not handled well. But if they paid to buy them, they certainly wouldn't miss this opportunity.

It was better to benefit her own people than outsiders.

"So, when will this auction be held?"

For example: This

We can indeed just send them off with the most ordinary pet beast eggs

"Then what if I provide more
