The first day of the auction concluded.
Liu Ming ended up buying only one disciple.
Sect Master Maomao advised him not to rush the process to avoid future regrets.
The cat explained that if he wanted a weak disciple, they should be very loyal. But if he wanted a disloyal disciple, they needed to be strong and talented enough to make up for their lack of commitment.
In Liu Ming's case, he chose the latter.
Since the young lord had been sitting with Auction Master Shihong in a small room on the fourth floor, the slave woman he bought hadn't acknowledged him as her future master.
"So, how are you?"
"…"
"Do you… have a name?"
"…"
"Uh, is there a name you'd like me to give you?"
"…"
That pretty much summed up their conversation.
Every time Liu Ming tried to connect with her or get her to open up, he failed.
