Chapter 78.1
Editor: Jodi
The news of the record-breaking bidding king at the Sotho Star Planet’s Emporium quickly spread across Starnet, sparking heated discussions.
The bidding king, valued at 320 million starcoins, surpassed all previous records set at jadeite emporiums, creating a new historical benchmark!
Last year’s bidding king, valued at 150 million starcoins, had produced jadeite of the ice variety when it was unraveled that was worth nearly 300 million, so how would this year’s bidding king fare? Would it also produce a jadeite that was a significant rise in bet?
[Generally, bidding kings rarely collapse.]
[That’s right, and I’ve heard from friends at the emporium that this year’s bidding king shows excellent performance, with jadeite of the glass variety revealed on both sides of the windows that have been polished open! All the major families placed bids.]
[This year’s bidding king was secured by the Yuan family, what boldness!]
[Outshining numerous families, the Yuan family made a grand move!]
[I can’t wait for the unraveling of the bidding king—]
[I’m looking forward to the bidding king’s unraveling!]
Traditionally, bidding kings would be unraveled on-site, and a significant rise in bet jadeite would greatly impress the major families as well as serve as an excellent opportunity to gain public fame.
Didn’t you see how Gu Yun’s fanbase increased by thirty million within a few days after the Sotho Star Planet’s Emporium opened?
What’s more countless people were now looking to collaborate with the Gu Conglomerate, hoping to establish connections.
So if the Gu Conglomerate could achieve this, why couldn’t the Yuan family?!
With the Yuan family’s head’s consent, the organizers announced the live unraveling of the bidding king at 1 PM and simultaneously revealed that Gu Yun would also be unraveling his rough stone.
[Oh my god, is God Yun also going to unravel a rough stone?]
[Wow, so excited!!]
[Feeling thrilled, going to camp in the live stream room.]
[Which piece is God Yun going to unravel?]
[The preview shows A02, what does this number signify? Can someone explain? Thank you~]
[Oh wow, it’s the second bid, right after the bidding king!]
[Sisters, I suddenly have a bold idea—]
After learning that Gu Yun had acquired rough stone A02, discussions on Starnet were heated and the topic remained trending.
There were speculations about the bidding king’s significant rise and debates over whether rough stone A02 was the true ‘dark horse’, with each side holding their ground.

Yuan Hao, the second young master of the Yuan family, was elegant, courteous, and highly sociable, often attending various banquets and gatherings.
At the same time, he was also an outstanding mecha warrior, one who was at level L7 and codenamed [Silver Moon], with numerous admirers.

The reason why the bidding king, known for its value, was called the bidding king was because it had been selected meticulously out of tens of thousands of rough stones by the event organizers, who had even invited the Empire’s only two level seven rough stone gamblers, Du Feng and Rong Xuan, for evaluation.
But Du Feng, citing the need for the Du family to avoid suspicion, declined, however Rong Xuan accepted and, along with other level six rough stone gamblers, conducted a comprehensive evaluation, determining the bidding king’s ownership at this year’s Sotho Star Planet’s Emporium.
In such circumstances, even if Bai Jing had a high rate of betting increase, it couldn’t shake the bidding king’s prestige as well as the authority of the senior rough stone gamblers.
So seeing this, the organizers decided to officially set up a wager: betting on whether the Yuan family’s bidding king or Gu Yun’s A02 would yield higher profits!
This was the last day of the Sotho Star Planet’s Emporium, and whether traffic would hit new highs depended on the afternoon’s heat.
So the organizers would not miss this last opportunity!
Thanks for the chapter!
