Su Ming'an had no intention to bid. Although his occupation "Bai Shen" could ignore equipment requirements and he didn't need white hair, he didn't want to have any dealings with Fun Demon.

"10 Points!"

"20 Points!"

Every time a bid was placed, the player's name would be displayed on the auction platform, causing a group of people who knew they couldn't afford it to want to see their names on the screen.

"Wow! My name is displayed on the screen, hurry and screenshot it!"

"Can you guys slow down, calling out 1 point at a time, okay? So everyone has a chance to screenshot!"

"I'm done, who raised by 10 points suddenly? Wasting 9 slots, the people behind shouldn't raise so quickly!"

People stared feverishly at the screen, constantly taking screenshots, praying their names would stay for a few more seconds. Some even got flushed and nearly came to blows.

It seems Fun Demon really has superior skills... They're too adept at understanding human nature; this scene is indeed quite amusing. Seeing the bidding already skyrocketing to 200 points, Su Ming'an yawned.

"——Su Ming'an."

Suddenly, a figure walked into the room.

Su Ming'an turned around, the newcomer had a single ponytail, their golden hair shimmering under the light.

"You need to win this auction item." The newcomer said.

"You..." Su Ming'an said.

"Fun Demon Kasadia, they've deliberately remained at a second-level god's tier, but their true power far surpasses a second-level god." The newcomer said: "They look for interesting people in the world, taking away the fun from them. When those people become uninteresting, they can become that person."

"Wait..." Su Ming'an said.

"So, if you don't want to replicate the situation in Tenth World where everywhere is Deity, it's best to stand on the same side as them. Kasadia can be very cruel when playing with people, especially someone like you who appears so interesting..."

Su Ming'an finally spoke: "…Who are you?"

The newcomer paused, blue eyes narrowing: "Are my features not evident?"

"So, who are you?" Su Ming'an helplessly said: "Shadow, Noah, Little A Ba, or another Cloning? There are too many of Noel's people; I'm a bit confused."

If it weren't for this person's ponytail, Su Ming'an would indeed have mistaken them for the disheveled Little A Ba. The Main God World has become a vast Noel, except for the real Noel himself missing, while others who shouldn't be here are present.

The newcomer was silent for a while, then revealed a subtle smile:

"...Guess."

"Oh," Su Ming'an said: "Shadow."

Newcomer: "..."

Su Ming'an said: "Your main body is still picking up trash in the universe, now you should be in Possession State. Is this your second form after Little A Ba? How about calling you Ba Axiao?"

Shadow disappeared.

Su Ming'an contemplated the air for a moment.

Actually, Shadow made a valid point. If the last auction item turns out to be useless, this one could be picked up. But the problem is… He considers himself to be an uninteresting person, afraid of not retaining Fun Demon. And who knows what intentions Shadow had when they came to say this? They certainly are not friends.

"You're overthinking." Little Na read his thoughts: "If it's you, you only need to worry about how to get rid of Kasadia, not whether they're interested in you."

"...That's a second-level god," Su Ming'an said. Fun Demon must have encountered countless people more interesting than him.

"Are there few gods concerned about your situation?" Little Na said.

...She had a point.

Su Ming'an thought for a while and decided to make a move. Not because he trusts the Organizers, but regardless of what kind of person Kasadia is, it remains a source of information.

…

[Current Price: 280 Points.]

[Bidder: Su Ming'an.]

…

Once he bid, people stopped competing.

There were a few scattered people who continued to bid, but most stopped, and the final price settled at 320 points.

"...Hmm? Quite different from the first auction's situation. People start giving way to the beloved Number One Player, as if he has become a true Lighthouse..." Boss Rabbit stroked their chin, red eyes flashing with pleasure: "Ah, what a harmonious scene! Rabbit can't help but want to recite a poem..."

"Scenes intertwined with lasting thoughts, Rabbit dreams of the past, reminiscing ancient times."

"Ya Sa once enjoyed Prestige, as in this scene's grandeur..."

"Bang!" The hammer fell, and Fun Demon's Poison Wine Dress was claimed by Su Ming'an for 320 Points.

The moment it was added to the equipment bar, Su Ming'an suddenly felt a chill run through him, as if something was gently blowing air.

He turned around, but saw nothing.

"Fun Demon, is this you?" He asked.

No response.

At this moment, the last auction item was finally presented.

…

[Blood-Stained Piano Sheet Music "Moonlight" (Red Level): "Mom... Give me a little more time, I can play it well. Don't hit me..."]

[Type: Props]

[Description: Blood-stained piano sheet music of December 31, 2012, 20:32. There are 78 other similar sheets.]

[Note: Put into the card pool, increases "Su Ming'an up rate". This prop allows one to see some memories.]

[Starting Price: 100 Points]

[Buy-It-Now Price: No Upper Limit]

…

Su Ming'an was stunned.

He stared at the sheet music lying under the spotlight, able to recall every note's position by heart. The black notes were buried under bright bloodstains, resembling solidified mud.

He remembered this music sheet. The difficulty of "Moonlight" wasn't low; those long notes and pauses were difficult for him to play well. And so, unable to bear the noise, the woman stood up and took out the wooden stick.

"Snap!"

"Why can't you play it well!"

"Snap!"

"You're not playing seriously at all!"

"Snap!"

"How many times still making basic mistakes! Can't you use your brain a bit!"

"Snap!"

The music sheet fell to the ground, blood drops soaked the paper; he couldn't remember his posture or expression at the time, only the endless pain, the constantly falling blood.

"——Why can't you play it well after so many times, you're wasting your talent, do you know? You've embarrassed mom!"

"——Eating at home, using home's stuff, is this how you repay mom? What should I say if neighbors ask 'Ming'an, how's your kid's piano playing going?'— Should I lie? That I raised a child who can't play piano at all, whose emotions are so full yet fingering and musical sense are so ugly? You're just like this, mom can't show you off at all!"

"——Some kids perform on stage at six or seven– It's because you're not putting in enough effort, wasting too much time at school, coming home and writing homework till late!"

"——Are those questions really that difficult? Your class leader is way smarter than you. How did I end up with a disgrace like you... always cooped up at home, never thinking about socializing, how are you going to find a good job in the future, who would want to hire you..."

It's always like this.

Clearly, it's just a matter of playing a few wrong notes, but under her anger, it quickly extends to his academic performance, then to his personality and character, further spreading to his life, future, career. Then she brings up all sorts of trivial past issues to scold him, as if just playing a few wrong notes makes him worthless and incapable of doing anything right.

When she starts scolding, whatever he says is just "talking back," "unfilial," "trying to anger mom to death," all in vain.

Even if he tries to reason with her, she covers it with angry words, and then starts scolding with "it seems you still don't know your mistake," "rebelling like this now, what will you do in the future," "mom is doing this for your own good, why aren't you grateful"...

Then, all that remains is silence and blood.

He knows she has a mental illness, so he rarely argues back, but there are always times when tensions arise, even if he just didn't wash the dishes well, he would be pointed at and scolded for half an hour.

Only his father would protect him. But his father is rarely home, so when she's upset, whatever he does is wrong.

"...Is your World Game going bankrupt? Are they auctioning off all this trash?" He looked at the sheet music, without sadness or anger, as if he no longer felt the pain.

The room was silent.

...

"——It's Su Ming'an's Fixed Trajectory prop! Everyone, rush!" Someone shouted.

"150 Points!"

"200 Points! Hehe, hehe, Su Ming'an... I want to draw Su Ming'an..."

As facts show, most people do not care about the story behind this sheet music. What they see is the now dazzling and powerful Su Ming'an. As for his past, it can only serve as a sideline.

"220 Points!"

Even the players on the leaderboard have joined the bidding, even more frenzied than that dress.

——What about Second-level God, it's not as good as Su Ming'an.

Just draw Su Ming'an, and any Second-level or Level 1 God will obediently follow?

"270 Points!" Boris shouted.

Beside him, Anger looked at Boris mercifully: "If this is acting, then I truly admire you. Sir, I will recite a eulogy for you, wishing you an early soul journey to the other side, not to place your faith in Su Ming'an in the next life..."

...

In just these short five minutes, Su Ming'an witnessed the players' frenzy for him.

Seemingly uninterested in him, Zhao Yuan single-handedly raised the price by 200 Points.

Atylanda, Yi Song, Joy, those who had no interaction with him, turned out to be the fiercest bidders.

And many leaderboard players whose names he couldn't even say, their eyes almost shooting light.

"600 Points!!"

The highest price of the night quickly appeared, from the eighth-ranked photographer Zhao Yuan. In her eyes was blatant greed, as if the sheet music on stage was not sheet music, but a live person.

Clearly, Gold Level Equipment Noah's Chain only costs 600 Points. This sheet music could reach such a high price.

"620 Points!"

The final bid was... from Boris.

This guy actually has so many Points... who knows how long he's been saving.

...

[Auction Chat Channel]

[Demon King: Boris, stop. The pool is full of Edward.]

[Psychological Doctor: I suppose this is faith... truly touching. It seems my skill is still insufficient, needing to learn from the Number One Player.]

[Photographer: Stop it, Boris. What use do you have for this sheet music? My camera combined with the sheet music can maximize its power.]

[Her Dorayaki: I don't believe you all can't see the value of this sheet music. With this sheet music, previous "Dieying Fixed Trajectory Props" or "Boss Rabbit Fixed Trajectory Props" will be easily obtained.]

[Photographer: Why did you say it out loud, I was hoping they'd be a bit dumber.]

[Lv Shu: Don't bid.]

[Time Controller: Are the Organizers really going bankrupt? Selling three pieces of trash, is the World Game in the Eleventh World going to collapse? Since the Tenth World's Dieying could interfere with the Organizers, can the Eleventh World's Level 1 God help us too?]

[Lolita: That Dieying is still picking up trash every day, what's wrong with trash? What right do you have to look down on trash?]

[Taihua Mountain Red Butterfly: Why are you all speaking anonymously, dare to say your real names?]

[Lv Shu: Don't bid.]

[I have Dual Persona Yu Yu Disorder: Can it be shared if summoned?]

[Photographer: Who's sharing with you.]

[Lv Shu: No bidding allowed.]

...

Finally, the sheet music fell into Boris's hands for a sky-high price of 620 Points.

Su Ming'an was pondering, how to make Boris give up the sheet music. But he didn't expect...

...

[White Bishop: @Su Ming'an. Next world, team up with me. I'll give you the sheet music directly. This way you won't have to spend any Points.]

[Fire Mystery: ?]

[Don't want to drink stew: ?]

[Sleeping: Is this all for this?]

[Chen River: Quite clever, by doing this, he's sure to team up with Su Ming'an. In such a large-scale world, with Su Ming'an's Protection, as long as there's enough fighting, the 620 Points will surely be earned back.]

[Hacker: @Su Ming'an. Just to notify, the one who previously bid on "Boss Rabbit's Little Apron" was a member of the United Group, they've been saving Points to bid on all the auction items, then give them to you for free, helping you save Points. They have your Number locator and can directly deliver to you.]

[Hacker: We originally planned to bid on all the auction items and give them to you for free. But "White Bird" has a san-lowering Skill, so we didn't bid. "Angel Wings" was taken by Lunxue, she's also a Full Perfect Clear player, so we didn't intervene.]

...

Su Ming'an felt surprised.

——So his Prestige has reached this level.

Once, people poured Points, Equipment, and Props onto Shan Changge, sacrificing their own futures, raising him high. Now, the Zhai Star people begin to imitate the Tenth World.

...

[Su Ming'an: Thanks, but I don't want "Boss Rabbit's Little Apron" either.]

[Hacker: Hold onto it, there are still quite a few Equipment and Props, we will find ways to give them to you in the Eleventh World. This is a resource coordinated with a lot of manpower and material for your final wish, we're willing to imitate "Shan Changge and Evil Long Song" once.]

...

Su Ming'an felt conflicted.

The United Group that once hunted him down now becomes this keen... truly times have changed.

The initial upper echelons have changed batch after batch, behind this are unknown numbers of negotiations and battles.

Next is the small event after the auction — Card Drawing.
