It took a couple of hours, but Yuan's group eventually made it to the entrance of the auction house.
"I'm sorry, but the seats are already fully occupied. If you're here to bid for the gold coin, you'll have to do so out here," said the worker at the entrance.
Yuan didn't say anything and retrieved the token he got from Chen Cheng, showing it to him.
The worker's eyes widened at the sight of the token, and he quickly said, "Please excuse me for not recognizing you, esteemed guests! We have reserved seats for you all in room three!"
He then stepped aside to let Yuan's group into the building.
"Hey! How come they get to go inside but we're not?!"
Those who weren't allowed inside began complaining outside. However, Yuan's group simply ignored them and quickly disappeared inside.
A few minutes later, they arrived at their room and went inside. Their room was located above the ground floor, allowing them not only a perfect view of the stage but also of other guests.
