103 Bow and Crossbow Division (1/2)

As the curtains closed, some were happy some were sad.

The one that failed miserably was Di Chen, he held close to a thousand gold and didn't win anything, and instead of getting himself into so much trouble and becoming the biggest joke of the auction, losing all his reputation.

Another sad person was Chun Shenjun. He came confidently thinking he would win it but unexpectedly Ouyang Shuo popped out and beat him, making him go home with nothing.

The luckiest one was Feng Qiuhuang, she was about to lose to Di Chen but at the crucial moment managed to get Ouyang Shuo's help and get the <Iron Futu Forging Technology Manual>.

The smartest was Bai Hua, avoiding all the popular items and getting the wood soul bead.

The person who received the most attention was naturally Ouyang Shuo. A single person getting 5 of the 10 items. Even the most expensive weapon and armor making manuals he got 3, being the biggest winner.

As the auction ended, what had happened was spread all over the China region. Qiyue Wuyi's strong financial strength defended his position as one of China's leaders. As for Di Chen's provocation to Qiyue Wuyi, it instantly became a joke.

Suddenly, the contents of all the posts changed. This was the first time Ouyang Shuo had came out and showed his strength in public. Apart from his financial strength, his interactions with Bai Hua, Xunlong Dianxue, and Siege Lion were paid attention to by many.

What resulted from the auction wasn't only that. After the auction, Feng Qiuhuang announced she had left the Handan Alliance. Their scuffle during the auction had been spread and changed many times into several different stories. Di Chen acted too highly with his status of the alliance leader, thence, Qiuhuang leaving the alliance was something that many supported. All of a sudden, the alliance was shaken up once again and many players speculated that it wouldn't last for long.

Not letting down everyone, Zhan Lang gave the alliance a final blow.

Shortly after she left, Zhan Lang announced that he was dropping out too, getting several lords from the construction industry to build the Blood Metal Alliance. The once glorified six tyrants of Handan was once again hit, leaving behind only Di Chen and Sha Pojun, it was the same as having died.

Just as everyone thought that the Handan alliance was about to disband, Di Chen made an unexpected announcement: Wu Fu from Jingdu will join the alliance. In the territory defense, Wu Fu was ranked 10th, his strength was even above Bai Hua.

With his addition, Handan alliance would continue. However, as it lost Feng Qiuhuang and Zhan Lang, two huge pillars, their strength wasn't as before, unable to compete with the Chunqiu Alliance.

Ouyang Shuo didn't slack and instead immediately invited Siege Lion and Xunlong Dianxue into the alliance. Under Bai Hua's suggestion, the alliance would be named the Shanhai Alliance and the leader will be Ouyang Shuo. The alliance included Shanhai Town, Bai Hua's Consonance Town, Mulan Yue's Mulan Town, Xunlong Dianxue's Xunlong town and Siege Lion's Black Lion Town.

Mulan Yue had just upgraded to a grade 1 town and didn't have 200 gold on hand so she couldn't join the auction, hence missing out. After knowing about what had happened, she sent a pigeon letter to congratulate him.

After the establishment of the Shanhai Alliance, Ouyang Shuo promised that Shanhai Town would give them priority in the sales of the Tang dagger, infantry armor and various bows and crossbows. As for the Mingguang armor, it wasn't on the list. Firstly, the production was complicated and Shanhai Town had to meet its own needs, so it was difficult to have extras to sell. Second was that Ouyang Shuo wanted the Mingguang Armoured Heavy Cavalry to be his special force. This wildcard was something he did not want to share, even with his allies.

To act as a deterrence, Ouyang Shuo didn't hide the news about the alliance. Shanhai Alliance's appearance eclipsed the Handan Alliance, Chunqiu Alliance, Blood Metal Alliance and became the biggest alliance in China. With its existence, if Di Chen wanted to touch Siege Lion, it wouldn't be as easy.

In a short moment, The China region became fuzzy and big events made everyone dazzled one after another.
