While Others Cultivate, I LVL UP In My Sleep Using The Dungeon System

Adam followed Cole, along with the entire crowd, and they began to disperse after being led by staff to their designated viewing rooms.

Each of the guests that had an invite, had their own private viewing room to watch the auction and place bids from. ​​

Adam followed Cole and their room was quite small, but was more than enough for two people, with a balcony that was peering over a stage in a large open hall.

On the balcony was a large sofa, that was long enough for five people, and there was a screen with a red button that they could use to place bids.

Adam was shocked by the show of wealth and the luxurious and well-made auction house that had dozens of viewing rooms of all kinds of sizes that al had a perfect view of the stage and had the ability to place bids with the screens found in each of the viewing rooms.

"Now we just watch the auction that doesn't have anything of interest to me, then we can leave and go somewhere else" stated Cole as he slumped on the sofa.

"Is your father going to be coming" asked Adam, joining Cole's side on the sofa.

"I haven't seen him in years" he added, awaiting a response from Cole.

"To be honest I don't know myself, and he is always extremely busy, but I have to keep up appearances for him" answered Cole as he shrugged.

Talking between themselves for 5 minutes, they finally began the auction that they paid attention to.

Adam especially, was very curious about what was up for bidding in the auction and was hoping he may be able to find something linked to cultivation.

From what he had seen from movies, series and novels, Adam had many wild ideas of what cultivation entailed, but from what he had done and seen with the Dungeon System, believed that weapons and equipment with enhancing effects would be used by cultivators.

[I remember the system saying that cultivators can use energy from special items and maybe I can find one of those items today in this fancy auction] thought Adam to himself.

{Does the host wish to unlock the treasure sensing feature} asked the system.

[For how much] asked Adam.

{10,000 system points} answered the system.

[You know I don't have that many system points, so annoying] thought Adam.

Adam had the idea of testing out the treasure hunting ability of his goblin summon, which was its special trait, but he knew that he couldn't with Cole beside him and it would cause a massive commotion.

A mature and beautiful looking woman, wearing an alluring and revealing red dress, walked onto the stage and stood in the centre.

"Tonight is a special event that holds mysterious objects that have been deemed as valuable and to place your bids use the screens beside you and enter the number you wish to raise the price by, then press the red button" she announced through a microphone.

"First up is this emerald that has been found gulf of Mexico and is thought to have healing effects on the wearer" announced the woman as the screen behind her showed a green emerald and her assistant carefully bought out the emerald on a trolly.

"Bids start at 1,000,000 dollars" she stated, allowing everyone to place their bids.

Adam was shocked by the woman openly announcing that the emerald may have healing effects and the starting price being 1,000,000 dollars.

[Don't tell me that all these people are cultivators and know about cultivation] thought Adam to himself, shocked, remembering the large amount of people that were there.

Within Adam's mind cultivators would wear old fashioned robes and fly atop swords and would all be monks that would be secluded and powerful, but what he was seeing went completely against what he had imagined.

"Adam I know this may shock you, or it may not, but have you heard of cultivation" whispered Cole to Adam.

"Like in the movies" answered Adam, acting ignorant to what Cole was talking about.

"Yes and no, it is basically the pursuit of strength and you can think of it as body building or training to be athletes. But instead of eating large amounts of food, they would use energy found in special areas, or in special items like that emerald" explained Cole.

Adam pretended to be shocked, but it was hard to pretend to be shocked about something he already knew.

"My martial arts master mentioned it, but he doesn't know it and only taught me karate" stated Adam, making up a story that would not only excuse the knowledge he had of cultivators, but also his inhumane strength.

"Yeah that makes sense, no wonder you became so strong" mumbled Cole.

"But these days it is rare to find many powerful cultivators and most cultivators are merely rank 1 at most and forming small criminal organisations, apart from the large families" described Cole, trusting Adam with the truth about the world.

"What is rank 1," asked Adam curiously, wanting to compare his own strength system to that of what was used by cultivators.

"Well rank 1 is completing 10% of the first realm and would give the user double the strength that he had before" explained Cole.

[So rank 1 is the same as LVL 10, but from what Cole has said, those are merely small time thugs and gangsters and real cultivators from cultivation families should be much more powerful than that. Which also probably means that the Maxwell Family is one of those cultivation families] gathered Adam.

Looking at Cole who had a very uncaring attitude, and seeing how much he knew, the curiosity of his true identity rose again, but he suppressed his curiosity for a later date.

Adam had completely changed his mind about regretting his decision of going with Cole, and he realised just how much of an eye-opener it was.

[This auction is beginning to get interesting] thought Adam to himself as he paid closer attention to everybody he saw, not underestimating a single one of them.
