Reincarnated As a Fox With System novel Chapter 298

Chapter 298: End of the Auction!

"Ins… Instructor Lan… That Cherry Blossom thing is yours?!" Tang Li Xue asked while widened her topaz blue eyes in shock.

Instructor Mei Lan rolled her eyes and lazily replied: "It is called [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons]. Unlike Sissy Wei, painting is only my side hobby. Usually, I would never sell any of my work if I do not need more credits."

"But I need those credits to buy some protection items for you three as insurance when you three follow me on the mission outside Myriad Foxes Academy later. You three can look forward to it." Instructor Mei Lan chuckled.

Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao felt really touched by Instructor Mei Lan's concern for them.

Instructor Mei Lan giggled when she saw the touched expression of Tang Li Xue, Bing Yi, and Hei Yinghao and said leisurely while dismissively waved her hand: "You three do not need to put that kind of faces. I already said it before, right? Any master-level profession can earn a lot of credits easily."

"In fact, this [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons] is the worst one amongst my works. I can easily make another one exactly like this in a few hours. Unlike someone from the room beside us! Tsk, tsk tsk… Supreme Treasure with 356 Arrays! I wonder how long he made it… Five years? No, that is too short. It should be around 7-8 years, right?!" Instructor Mei Lan said with a sarcastic tone.

"It is for four years and eight months! Hei, the stupid Dummy Lan! Unlike your useless painting, my Supreme Treasure can momentarily freeze the time and space in a certain radius! The strength of my creation is only below the Heavenly Treasure!" Teacher Li Wei felt offended and replied with a cold tone.

"Ssshhh… four years and eight months?! Oh my, my, my… How many paintings can I make in those three years? Hundreds? Maybe thousands? If I sell all of those paintings, how many Supreme Treasures can I buy with those credits? Tens? Nope… Should be enough to buy a few hundred or more, right?" Instructor Mei Lan said while stretched her fingers out as if she was counting something.

With that, Teacher Li Wei and Instructor Mei Lan started to argue fiercely with each other again.

Although they were saying that, but those were not the truth, and they were mostly only joking.

Teacher Li Wei really spent almost five years to create that [Stopping Diagram], but it was because he used most of his time to experiment in trial and error until he finally succeeded in creating it. If he wanted to create another one right now, he only needs one or two weeks at most since he already knew perfectly how to make it.

It was the same for Instructor Mei Lan…

Although she said she could make hundreds or even thousands of paintings, but it was only a bluff.

It was impossible for a person… or rather a fox like Instructor Mei Lan to cope in her room for the entire four years and drawing the paintings all days!

She could only probably create a few paintings at most in a year, and that if she has enough free time and mood to do that.

In fact, Instructor Mei Lan was too busy with her own works, missions, and teaching or training her students every day until she did not even have enough time and mood to hold the paintbrush anymore. That was the reason why the auction's audience said the Mysterious Master Mian had retired a few years ago.

Just like what Teacher Li Wei had predicted before, his creation, the [Stopping Diagram], was sold for almost twice the price of Instructor Mei Lan's [Cherry Blossom of the Four Seasons]. It was sold at 1,450,000,000 credits.

'What the hell..... How many zero again is that?!' Tang Li Xue thought with a dumbfounded expression. Even her drool was almost dripping onto her couch.

"Instructor Lan, the one who made that painting is you?! But why they said it was the work of Master Mian?" Bing Yi asked curiously.

Instructor Mei Lan chuckled and replied: "That is just my alias. I only shortened it from my name."

"Pffftt… Mian (Flat) is really a suitable name for you…" Teacher Li Wei said while muffled his laughter.

Instructor Mei Lan's expression darkened a lot, and they started to mock each other harshly.

Zhao Mengli took a deep breath, and her expression turned solemn in an instant.

"All Esteemed Guests, our Annual Auction this year is almost reaching the end, and all of you should be already know that the last item would be the best item auctioned this year." Zhao Mengli said with a serious tone.

"I know all of you are already impatient to know what the last item is, so let's see it now!" Zhao Mengli bowed to the audience and waved her hand.

The last item did not appear on Zhao Mengli's hand this time, but it was brought onto the stage by two more Spirit beast rank foxes.

The last item was still covered with red cloth, so they could not see it. But all audience could feel the last item was far from ordinary since three Spirit beast rank foxes were guarding it now on the stage!

Zhao Mengli gave a gentle beautiful smile to all the audience before pulling the red cloth.

The last item was actually a dilapidated scroll stored inside the transparent glass box.
