At first, when he reincarnated he wanted to live his life to the fullest. Back on earth, he just existed. He hasn't truly lived.
In this world, without getting stronger one may always under other's pity. If they like it, you may die at any moment. He didn't want that.
So, When Lloyd saw the notification of system about a new mission. He was thrilled. If he could get his hands on the yin-yang tactics, he could fully control his bloodline and become even stronger.
Seeing the cultivation technique, the majority of clans couldn't wait for the start of biding.
Normally when a cultivator starts to cultivate under a specific element. He will be stuck with it. He could change cultivate technique with the same element.
If they could get their hands on this yin-yang tactics, the next generation of their clan members could cultivate it and become even stronger than them. which would increase the overall strength of the clan.
The only non-bloodline clan will be participating in this bidding. As this art will not be any use for bloodline user as they have their own bloodline art.
"this item has no bottom price. The highest bidder will win it. Now let's start bidding" cia said.
"200 royal gold"
"500"
"1000"
Lloyd saw the price increasing rapidly. He then shouted, "10 low-rank spirit stones"
Hearing he was again bidding with spirit stone, the hall quieted down.
But unlike the previous time, some bid as this cultivation technique is valuable.
"11 low-rank spirit stone"
"12"
"13"
Seeing that bids are increasing and they are really using spirit stones, Lloyd was surprised.
He thought that once he brought spirit stones into play. He will win it.
A smile appeared on his face and bid.
"20 low-spirit stones"
Seeing some increased bid by 5 spirit stone. Nobody bid for a while.
"20 low-spirit stone going one"
"twice"
Just as Lloyd thought he won, a voice appeared and bid, "21"
Lloyd wanted to continue biding but then he heard a same voice of the bidder.
"friend, I know that you want to bid but could you give us some face," the voice said.
"Why should I?" Lloyd asked instantly.
"you don't want to make Calsley clan your enemy. You wouldn't able to handle it" the voice said, Lloyd could feel the threat and pride in the voice.
Lloyd didn't speak for a while. He knows that Calsley clan is rank 8th in top clans.
"I don't care about your clan nor your face if you want then bid higher than me," Lloyd said while feeling angry. He thought, 'this bastard, trying to scare him off using his clan name'
"50 low- rank spirit stone" Lloyd bided.
"YOU," the voice said in anger.
"bid for once"
"twice"
"sold" cia pointing towards Lloyd's cabin and blowing him a kiss. She personally came and delivered to him.
"young master here is your item," cia said with a light bow and presenting the book to Lloyd.
When cia bowed, Lloyd could clearly see her jugs. He swallowed a mouthful of saliva. He immediately paid her and rushed towards the exist. If he stayed he doesn't know what he may do to her.
Just as he was leaving, he turned and said, "if Calsley clan still want to make an enemy for me, search for me at fire phoenix clan. I will be ready"
Hearing he was Phoenix clan, the entire hall voice increased as they discussed.
"Calsley clan, really mess up big this time. They went and offended phoenix"
"that young man may be the heir of the clan since he has a huge stock of spirit stones"
Lloyd left the auction hall and rushed to the inn. He can't wait to read yin yang tactics.
As he reached the inn, he still couldn't find Derek. He went to his room and opened yin yang tactics
"yin and yang describe how seemingly opposite or contrary forces may actually be complementary, interconnected, and interdependent in the natural world, and how they may give rise to each other as they interrelate to one another. Many tangible dualities (such as light and dark, fire and water, expanding and contracting) are thought of as physical manifestations of the duality"
"yin may give rise to yang and yang may give rise to yin"
As he continued to read it, his knowledge about fire and ice increased. He also finds out how both elements co-exist with each other.

-yes/no-
'yes' Lloyd said.
-analyzing and creating new phoenix art-

Lloyd felt all new Phoenix art appeared in his head. He sat down and started to cultivate it.
Unlike previous phoenix art. This time he could feel his bloodline's power. He could simulate his bloodline during cultivation. His body started to glow in purple light with an image of Phoenix appeared on his back.
