Mittel Auction House.
In a room on the third floor, Liu Yun lay on the bed, grinning foolishly. After a while, he finally brought up his personal panel to check.

Before he knew it, he had already returned six bound objects. It seemed it was time to hurry up and complete the task.
That evening, a knock sounded at the door. Liu Yun opened it to find He Qingfeng and quickly welcomed him in.
"Elder He, didn't you go to the Monster Mountain Range? Why are you back?" Liu Yun asked.
"Young Master, I found ten peak-level Tier 1 monsters and also found out their lair," He Qingfeng said bluntly.
"So fast?" Liu Yun was surprised.
"Actually, you can find monsters everywhere in the Monster Mountain Range. It's not easy to find Tier 2 or higher monsters, but Tier 1 monsters are everywhere," He Qingfeng explained.
Liu Yun suddenly understood. The name Monster Mountain Range said it all. It was no exaggeration to say that monsters were everywhere there, and Tier 1 monsters were the lowest tier, so of course they were plentiful.
He had originally thought this task would take a long time, so he planned to go after the auction ended in ten days. Now it seemed that was unnecessary.
"In that case, Elder He, please make preparations. We'll set off early tomorrow morning to hunt magical beasts," Liu Yun said.
Elder He looked at Liu Yun's eager expression and hesitated.
"Elder He, is there anything else?" Liu Yun asked.
"Young Master, are you really planning to hunt a peak-level first-tier magical beast alone?
You must know that magical beasts of the same tier are stronger than humans. A peak-level first-tier magical beast is equivalent to a nine-star Dou Zhe, or even stronger. Only a Dou Shi (Battle Master) can have a high chance of hunting it.
And the young clan leader's current realm seems to be only tenth-stage Dou Qi."
Liu Yun was taken aback. Indeed, he didn't know how strong a peak-level first-tier magical beast was. Judging from the mission rewards given by the system, the difficulty of this mission was definitely not low.
However, how would he know the difference if he didn't try? Since this mission was issued by the system, it meant there was still hope of completing it.
"Elder He is right, but I still want to try. I believe that with Elder He's cultivation as a nine-star Great Dou Shi, he can definitely protect me," Liu Yun said.
"Young Master, magical beasts are very alert. Once they sense the presence of an invincible being, they will turn and run," He Qingfeng warned.
This meant He Qingfeng had to maintain a considerable distance; if Liu Yun faced a deadly situation, he wouldn't be able to rescue him immediately.
Liu Yun was also considering this problem. He was indeed going to fight, but not to die.
"Well, in that case, let's take it slow. After entering the Magical Beast Mountain Range, I'll first fight the newly-entered Tier 1 magical beasts, progressing step by step, and finally challenge the peak Tier 1 magical beasts," Liu Yun said.
If he couldn't even defeat ordinary Tier 1 magical beasts, Liu Yun would have to consider abandoning the mission.
"It's good that Young Master understands. I'll take my leave now," He Qingfeng bowed slightly.
"Alright, take care, Elder He."
After seeing Elder He off, Liu Yun began to ponder. This mission was not simple; it might truly be life-threatening.
If it were just a peak first-tier magical beast, it wouldn't be so bad; he could hold off He Qingfeng and have him carried away. But the Magical Beast Mountain Range was fraught with danger. A third or fourth-tier magical beast might suddenly appear, and then he'd truly be in deep trouble.
"Forget it, thinking so much is useless. I need to rest and recharge. The journey over the next few days might not be so peaceful," Liu Yun murmured.
Why stop because of fear of danger? What kind of Battle Master would he be? At that moment, Liu Yun suddenly understood, feeling a sense of clarity.
The next day.
Just as dawn broke, Liu Yun arrived at Ya Fei's room and knocked.
With a creak, the door opened, and Ya Fei, dressed in a red dress, stood behind it. She was slightly surprised to see Liu Yun, then smiled and said,
"Little brother Liu Yun, knocking so early in the morning, is there something you need?"
"I missed Sister Yafei terribly after not seeing her all night, and I felt I should come and see her," Liu Yun blurted out.
The moment he said that, not only Yafei, but even Liu Yun himself was surprised.
"Ahem, little brother Liu Yun, you're really joking. Tell me, you must have come for something," Yafei said with a smile. "
Yes, Sister Yafei, I've come to say goodbye," Liu Yun said.
"Goodbye? You're leaving?" Yafei asked in surprise, and at the same time, a strange sadness welled up inside her.
"Sister Yafei, don't misunderstand. I'm just going to the Monster Beast Mountain Range for training. I'll definitely be back for the auction in nine days," Liu Yun explained.
"Oh, that's good. But the Monster Beast Mountain Range is so dangerous, you must be careful," Yafei said.
"Yes, thank you for your concern, Sister Yafei. I'm just training in the outer mountains. Besides, with Elder He, a nine-star Grand Dou Master, there, I'll be fine," Liu Yun said with a smile.
"Yes, remember to come back early if there's any danger. As for the auction, don't worry, I'm here," Yafei said with a smile.
"Don't worry, Sister Yafei, it's just a small trial. If I can't even do this, how will I become stronger and protect you?" Liu Yun said confidently.
"Alright, come back soon, and be careful!" Yafei patted his shoulder.
"Sister Yafei, I came here specifically to say goodbye, won't you give me a hug?" Liu Yun opened his arms and smiled.
Yafei was taken aback at first, then smiled and gently hugged Liu Yun. At that moment, she didn't know why, but she felt her heart pounding.
A fragrant breeze wafted over, and Liu Yun felt as if he had sunk into a swamp, feeling extremely comfortable.
This was the gentleness of his older sister; she would make you feel comfortable, wouldn't throw tantrums, and would almost always fulfill your requests.
"Sister Yafei, take care of yourself too. There's a lot going on at the auction, don't overwork yourself," Liu Yun said.
Then he released Yafei and turned to leave.
