Five hundred thousand immortal stones. This was double Sōin's bid. This method of increasing the price was too ruthless.
Seeing Mo Qingyun's bid, everyone was filled with anticipation. They wanted to see how Sōin would react.
What surprised everyone was that after waiting for a long time, Sōin didn't say anything.
There was no other way. Five hundred thousand immortal stones had already exceeded the actual value of the Geographical Map.
If Zong Yin continued to increase the price, it would be equivalent to him being a sucker.
That was what Sōin thought. However, the others didn't think so. They just wanted to watch the show.
"Young master Sōin, you mustn't back down. Continue to compete with that kid."
"That's right. Continue to compete. That kid is too arrogant. We all don't like him."
"Young master Sōin, didn't you just say that you wouldn't let that kid get the Geographical Map? Why are you backing down in the blink of an eye? "
"Sigh! Don't force young master Sōin. His feelings for young miss Wen Yu are only worth two hundred and fifty thousand immortal stones. "
…
Seeing Sōin remain silent for a long time, the people around him were disappointed. They started to jeer one after another.
However, towards the end of the jeering, their words were all filled with mockery.
Hearing everyone's mockery, Sōin's expression became uglier and uglier. If he didn't continue to bid, he would really lose face.
"I bid five hundred and ten thousand immortal stones."
Sōin gritted his teeth. In the end, he increased the price by ten thousand immortal stones. He wanted to use this to regain his face.
Seeing Sōin continue to bid, everyone immediately changed the topic and started to flatter him.
"So the Young Lord of the Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan, one of the top 100 Ten Thousand Ancient Races, is actually so poor. It seems like the Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan is nothing much."
Without waiting for Sōin to feel proud, Mo Qingyun's words came out of his mouth. He mocked and ridiculed Sōin, "Young Lord, if you're really that poor, then don't make a fool of yourself. There's no point in increasing the price by ten thousand. I feel ashamed for your Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan."
"Brat, shut up right now. If you have the guts, then add more."
Hearing Mo Qingyun's words, Sōin's face darkened, and he roared angrily at Mo Qingyun.
What Mo Qingyun said now was no longer about himself, but about the reputation of the Heaven Devouring Wolf Tribe.
This was related to the face of the Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan, so he couldn't tolerate it no matter what.
Otherwise, it would bring shame to the Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan and cause the Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan to be mocked by the other clans.
"Fine, I'll add one million prominent Celestial Stones."
Mo Qingyun replied generously. Then, he said loudly, "Sōin, Young Lord, it's your turn now."
One million Celestial Stones!
Even Han Wanqing's expression changed when he heard Mo Qingyun's words. He was stunned by Mo Qingyun's generosity.
Mo Qingyun's performance was just too domineering.
"This brat has an extraordinary bearing. He's someone who can achieve great things."
Han Wanqing nodded in satisfaction when he saw Mo Qingyun's performance. The more he looked at Mo Qingyun, the more satisfied he was with him.
"One … One million prominent Celestial Stones just to buy a map? Is there something wrong with your head?"
Hearing Mo Qingyun's price, Zong Yin was so angry that his little brother was crooked. His face instantly turned extremely dark.
He couldn't help but admit that Mo Qingyun's move was too ruthless. He was now in a difficult position.
Mo Qingyun had already said that if he didn't increase the price, it would prove that the Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan was poor.
It would be embarrassing for a clan ranked in the top 100 of the Ten Thousand Archean Tribes to not be able to take out one million prominent Celestial Stones.
Most importantly, even if he continued to increase the price, he couldn't do it one by one.
Otherwise, people would misunderstand that the Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan was a poor clan.
"One million and one hundred thousand prominent Celestial Stones!"
After an intense struggle, Sōin gritted his teeth and made a bid.
Everyone's eyes widened when they heard Sōin's bid. They waited expectantly for Mo Qingyun's reply.
This time, what kind of price would Mo Qingyun offer?
"Only one hundred thousand Celestial Stones? It seems like the Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan is really poor."
Mo Qingyun revealed a disappointed expression as the crowd waited expectantly. He mocked Zong Yin for a while before saying, "Seeing how difficult it is for you, I'll let you have the map since you used up all the resources of the Heaven Devouring Wolf Clan."
Mo Qingyun knew that one million and one hundred thousand prominent Celestial Stones was Sōin's limit.
If he continued to increase the price, Sōin would really give up.
Therefore, Mo Qingyun's best choice was to back out now.
Let you have the map?
Everyone's eyes widened when they heard Mo Qingyun's words. They couldn't believe their ears.
"Did … Did I hear wrongly? That young master gave up? "
"Wasn't he very domineering earlier? Was he pretending earlier? "
"I don't think so. I think he really took pity on Sōin and decided to let him have the map."
"That's most likely the case. Actually, that young master is quite kind. I don't think he's a bad person."
"Young master Sōin, that young master was moved by you and decided to give up on the map. You've fulfilled your promise to Wen Yu."
"Young master Sōin, although you can't get Miss Wen Yu, since that young master took pity on you and let you have the map, you've gained something."
…
For a time, words of comfort and sympathy came from everyone's mouths.
Pfft, pfft, pfft …
Sōin immediately felt like his heart was being stabbed again and again when he heard everyone's words.
What did they mean by Mo Qingyun let him have the map? He was the one who won it with one million prominent Celestial Stones.
Also, what did they mean by Mo Qingyun took pity on him? It was clearly Mo Qingyun who was cheating him.
What kind of logic was this? Who was he supposed to find to reason with now?
"Mo Qingyun, you better explain yourself. What do you mean by you let me have the map?"
Sōin was so angry that he started to lose his rationality. He immediately yelled at Mo Qingyun.
Mo Qingyun smiled calmly when he heard Sōin's angry words. He replied, "Sōin, your Heaven Devouring Wolf Tribe is poor. I can understand your feelings. Because you're too poor to find a partner, you're planning to bid for the map of the Nine Immortals Mountain Range and go there to buy a partner. This is human nature. You don't have to feel embarrassed, everyone can understand you."
Everyone was enlightened when they heard Mo Qingyun's words. They agreed with Mo Qingyun's analysis.
"I see. No wonder Young master Sōin was in such a hurry to bid for the map."
"Young master Sōin, we can understand. If you don't have the money, go buy a partner."
"I didn't expect the Heaven Devouring Wolf Tribe, one of the top 100 on the Ten Thousand Archean Tribes Board, to be so poor."
…
Everyone's misunderstanding of Zong Yin was getting deeper and deeper.
Pfft!
Sōin spat out a mouthful of blood when he saw the situation in front of him. Even breathing became difficult for him.
Was he unable to explain himself? Why did it feel like he was making things worse?
