The auction held by the Shanji Kingdom royal family, though called the "Royal Auction," was actually not hosted inside the royal palace.
Duan Lingtian was not surprised by this, because people from all walks of life would inevitably attend an auction, and the Shanji Kingdom royal family would naturally not allow just anyone to enter the palace.
The royal auction took place at an auction venue ten thousand meters away from the Shanji Kingdom royal palace. This venue also belonged to the royal family and was usually rented out to various sects and clans for their own auctions.
