Ancestral Wealth Inheritance System

"Extra, extra, the 'Genesis Auction House' in Area B122 has been bought by Divine Wealth Civilization, and it has now been officially renamed to 'Sun Auction House!'"

A few hours later, this news spread like wildfire from the center of Area B122.

"Genesis Auction House? Wasn't that Ao Bu's business? The business he painstakingly built over so many years, sold just like that?"

"Right, our organization once offered 500 million academic credits to buy it, and he wouldn't sell."

"This Divine Wealth Civilization really proved capable. By the way, isn't the top newcomer this time said to be him? I recall his name is Fang Jueyu."

"No way, just a newcomer, how could he have so many credits to buy an auction house?"

"You guys don't know, do you? Fang Jueyu of Divine Wealth Civilization has impressive connections. Most of the core figures supporting our Genesis are related to him, even leaders of the three major organizations aren't exceptions."

"Really? That explains it. With someone like this emerging from Founder City, things are bound to change."

...

As everyone was reeling in shock from this news, another astounding piece of information surfaced.

"Fang Jueyu from Divine Wealth Civilization founded an organization called Ming Sect, based in 'Sun Auction House,' and now there are four members, including him, and two Cosmic Beasts!"

"Hahaha! Isn't this a joke? Just a few Divine Ability Users trying to form an organization?"

"What can you do when someone has such a powerful background?"

"It's just kids fooling around, they've probably got three upperclassmen as their backing, right?"

"Hahaha, we might find them annoying, but we can ignore them. However, this little plaything won't develop much, no one needs to worry."

In the eyes of many senior members, this was nothing more than child's play, perhaps just idle curiosity, exerting influence among newcomers. But the forces backing them wouldn't dare to risk disrupting the entire Founder City by taking aggressive actions on their behalf.

If the first two pieces of news only caused mild interest, then the next one was explosive.

To celebrate the founding of Ming Sect, its first Sect Hierarch, Fang Jueyu, planned to host a large auction!

It wouldn't have been a big deal, but when the items for this auction were turned into promotional materials, everyone's attention was riveted.

"What? Runes with engraved patterns?"

"This... This is medication crafted using techniques lost to the Root Universe! Such things can only be found in the credit exchange of the Cosmic Federation School, and they're rare. Where on earth did he get them?"

"Divine Weapon Fragments, five Divine Weapon Fragments!"

"Divine Weapons! Complete Divine Weapons, my god, what am I seeing?"

This news spread like waves of propaganda, and Bernard and the others truly showed some talent for promotion. They mastered those two books, "Propaganda Studies" and "Propaganda Psychology," in just a day.

Of course, more importantly, no Martial Artist could resist the allure of these items. Divine Weapon Fragments and complete Divine Weapons would even move a Demigod!

"Heh, a bunch of poor people!" Fang Jueyu reclined on a lazy chair, having just ended a virtual world call with Guo Xinyu. Not having seen each other for years, Fang Su was nearly seven now, but this kid inherited the Fang Family's flair for showing off; at merely seven, he'd become a little tyrant on Earth.

"Brother Fang, the effect is phenomenal. The news has almost spread across all of Founder City."

"Absolutely, all organization leaders have started pooling funds to participate in this auction. I even heard some Demigods, who got wind of it, are getting antsy."

Those Demigod Warriors frequently held public lectures. If students wanted to attend, they had to pay steep auditing fees, and for Demigods, credits hardly had any use, so millions of years of accumulation were indeed quite terrifying.

"Not only that, but the market for exchanging cosmic currency and academic credits has also experienced significant fluctuations. Various organizations are selling off their assets in Founder City, making it quite lively."

"Just as I imagined," Fang Jueyu smiled, "Ah, too bad!"

Under normal circumstances, an academic credit could be exchanged for one original currency. At this moment, the value could even reach 1.2 or 1.3 original currency per credit. If Fang Jueyu currently held a lot of academic credits, he could have made a huge profit.

Unfortunately, he didn't have much initial capital at the moment.

"No worries, there's time. Once I've amassed enough credits this time, Founder City will be under our control."

...

Honestly, for this auction, Fang Jueyu and the others emptied their pockets. Together, they only had a little over twenty thousand academic credits. Though it seemed like a lot, it was still not enough, leaving them almost penniless after advertising for this auction.

That day, countless Martial Artists gathered at the "Sun Auction House," but the moment they reached the entrance, they were a bit stunned.

Holding an auction for such prized items, you ought to set up the venue nicely, right? Not expecting extravagant decor, at least there should be someone responsible for welcoming guests, right?

Each and every one of them was at least a Transcender-level Martial Artist. Didn't they deserve such a basic display of courtesy?

What they didn't know was that Fang Jueyu was genuinely strapped for cash, truly down to his last drop!

"Hmph, if he can't produce those items, no matter how strong his background is, I'll tear his auction house down!" A King-level Transcender grumbled yet walked in, gritting his teeth.

"It's fine, if he can't come through, we'll hold them accountable, and the forces behind them won't let it slide. In this Founder City, kinship means nothing!"

"Exactly. If I'm not mistaken, even the three upperclassmen have been selling off major assets, right?"

"A Demigod has arrived!" With a stir in the crowd, a path wide enough for a few people was made.

"It's the Demigod from the Beast Taming Academy!"

"Really? I heard that not only has he reached the Demigod level in strength, but he also has a Contracted Fierce Beast about to break through to Demigod, making him top-tier even among many Demigod teachers."

"Look, even the Wind God is here!"

"Wow, so many Demigods have shown up!"

"Hahaha, who would have thought today would be so lively!" Amidst hearty laughter, Fang Jueyu emerged from the auction house.

"Sorry, sorry, budget constraints, can't afford extra credits to hire staff. I hope everyone can bear with us a little!"

"Is that Fang Jueyu?"

"Yes, that's him. He's the leader of this Ming Sect. The three Divine Ability Users behind him are the Vice Sect Hierarchs, and the beasts named Dog and Cat are their Guardian Beasts."

"Hahaha, just kids playing around, this is expected!"

"Wait a second, why do the three people behind them look unfamiliar?"

"Could they be newbies too?"

"No, their aura is quite elusive, I can hardly determine their level."

"What? Someone like that exists in Founder City?"

"Three Demigods?" Among everyone, the most shocked had to be the few Demigods present. With their strength, they immediately sensed the presence of Demigods.

"Come on, let me introduce you. These three are the Three Great Protectors of our Ming Sect: Gu Juji, Zhang Gengshuo, and Yang Dingtian!"
