"It's him!"
In the completely inconspicuous corner of the auction hall, Fang Qiu saw another familiar face. It was an old man with a ruddy face and no beard. His eyebrows were a little gray, and his face was round. He looked very energetic, like a dancing master in the square.
Fang Qiu remembered clearly.
This was the guru old man he met when he auctioned the Guru Sword in Chic Cloud Pavilion last time. Even He Gaoming didn't know this person.
Think about it carefully.
This old man seemed to be sitting in this position last time.
Just like the last time, the old man was still extremely sensitive. When Fang Qiu looked at him, he immediately turned his head and glanced at Fang Qiu. The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, revealing a somewhat playful smile.
Seeing this.
Fang Qiu immediately cupped his hands to the old man without thinking!
Because everyone's attention had been on John Doe, as soon as Fang Qiu did this, everyone immediately looked in the direction of John Doe's gaze curiously and saw the old man.
"Who is this person?"
"Hey, why is he an ordinary person?"
"This old man must be here to join in the fun. He doesn't know what this place is for, does he?"
"He's just an ordinary old man. Why does John Doe cupped his hands to him?"
Everyone was very confused.
Because in their view, this old man was really ordinary, as ordinary as an ordinary person.
However.
Just as everyone was discussing in a low voice.
Some of the relatively senior people at the scene couldn't help but be shocked after seeing Fang Qiu's action and the old man!
On the second floor.
The people in the Supreme Private Room also looked in the direction of Fang Qiu's gaze in confusion.
As a result, most people didn't know this old man. They all had the same idea as the people in the hall on the first floor. Their first impression was that this old man was an ordinary person.
However, it was only limited to the first impression.
Diwu Qian quietly took a photo of the old man with her mobile phone and immediately sent it to her father, Diwu Mingchuan.
In just a few seconds, Diwu Mingchuan's message was replied.
She clicked on it.
"A guru can't be offended!"
A few simple words made Diwu Qian's heart tighten. She looked at the old man again and suddenly became serious.
As for the others, they didn't pay too much attention to the investigation. They just simply remembered the old man's appearance, glanced at Fang Qiu curiously, and began to prepare for the auction!
The auction this time was very grand.
However, only the juniors of the four great families had come this time. Even the masters of the families did not come. After all, they were the top existences in the martial arts world. If the masters of the four great families were to compete with each other in this auction, it would be too embarrassing.
Moreover, the competition between the Patriarchs represented the entire family, so it was very easy for conflicts to arise. It was different to let the little ones do it. After all, they were still young!
Very soon.
When everyone was seated.
An extremely elegant and gentlemanly auctioneer stepped onto the stage and said some words that stirred up everyone's emotions. Then, the auction officially began!
With the huge bait of "the news of the Dragon Grass", the Chic Cloud Pavilion naturally had to prepare more good things to auction and take this opportunity to get a good price.
This is not.
With the beginning of the auction, all kinds of things that were particularly precious to martial arts practitioners were auctioned on the stage one by one. Most of them were weapons and herbs, some elixir recipes, and some ancient martial arts cultivation methods.
Under the mobilization of the auctioneer, everyone's emotions were aroused. The auction also went very smoothly, and everyone's enthusiasm also increased.
Of course.
For these things, the four great families and the top forces did not intervene. They gave all of them to the small and medium-sized forces.
These small and medium-sized forces knew that they could not compete with the large forces, so they simply did not compete for the last big item. Instead, they spent all their money on items that were beneficial to them, such as herbs, elixir recipes, cultivation methods, and so on.
The enthusiastic auction atmosphere lasted for a whole hour.
An hour later.
The auction had finally come to an end.
"Thank you for your enthusiasm."
On the auction stage, the auctioneer bowed to everyone in the audience in a very gentlemanly manner and said, "Next, it's the finale of today's unprecedented auction. This auction has no real object, so you can't see anything. But I believe that everyone is very clear about the value of this auction, because you all came for it, right?"
In the hall.
Everyone echoed him one after another.
The people in the Supreme Private Room on the second floor were also ready to go!
"I know that everyone can't wait to bid for the last item, so I won't waste any more time. The auction for the last item, the location of the eighth heaven resource, Dragon Saliva Grass, officially begins!"
"The base price of this auction item is 100 million, and there is no limit to the increase in price!"
As soon as this was said.
Everyone in the audience gasped in shock.
The base price of 100 million was not beyond everyone's expectations. Many people even thought that the base price was a little too low.
But it was different if there was no limit to the increase in price.
The Chic Cloud Pavilion was going to make trouble!
There was no limit to the increase in price, which meant that they could increase the price by one yuan or by one billion in an instant!
This was an auction method that particularly aroused hatred. It was easy to make the bidders hate each other, but at the same time, it was easy to squeeze every last cent out of the bidders!
There was no doubt.
This time, the Chic Cloud Pavilion wanted to use this auction to make a lot of money!
"The auction begins!"
As the auctioneer's shout fell.
The audience instantly quieted down.
The people on the first floor were all looking at the people in the VIP rooms on the second floor. They were all waiting to see this unprecedented battle!
However.
It was strange.
Within 30 seconds of the start of the auction, the people in the Supreme Private Room on the second floor all looked at each other, and no one was the first to speak.
According to the rules of the Chic Cloud Pavilion, the first bidding time for an auction item was one minute.
If no one bid within one minute, it would be directly taken off the shelf or put on auction in the next auction.
Time passed second by second.
Whether it was the auctioneer on the stage, everyone in the hall, or the people from the major families and forces in the Supreme Private Room, no one panicked at all.
Because they all knew that the people present who were eager for the news of the Dragon Grass would never let this auction item go!
In the blink of an eye.
It was 45 seconds.
The countdown timer of 15 seconds had begun to move.
Even so.
Still, no one made a move.
"Since no one wants to be the first, I'll do it."
Fang Qiu gently tapped on the auction chair, then raised his hand and said, "I'll bid a Guru Sword!"
As soon as he said that.
All the people present were shocked!
"What the f * ck?"
"How can this be? A Guru Sword?"
"Can it be exchanged in an auction?"
"The value of a Guru Sword is there. It can be spent as real money."
"John Doe auctioned one last time. Now there's another Guru Sword?"
"How many Guru Swords do you have?"
Everyone in the factory was talking about it.
On the second floor.
"Hmm?"
Hearing Fang Qiu's bid, Diwu Qian trembled all over, and then she was stunned. She turned to look at Fang Qiu with a hint of surprise in her eyes.
While secretly surprised, Diwu Qian couldn't help but smile bitterly.
"This guy actually has a Guru Sword?"
…
"There's more?"
Yun Yangzi was also stunned. He glanced at Fang Qiu and finally fixed his eyes on the huge box in Fang Qiu's private room.
Looking at this big box, Yun Yangzi's face darkened. He murmured with a bitter smile, "It can't be that this box is full of Guru Swords, right?"
…
"How could he possibly have another Guru Sword?"
Qian Xiao, the eldest son of the Qian family, stared at Fang Qiu in shock. He also participated in the last Guru Sword auction and fought fiercely with the other three families. He didn't expect that John Doe would take out another Guru Sword this time.
Similarly.
The Zhan family, the Xi family, and all the major forces in Wulin were particularly shocked.
They all knew that John Doe had auctioned a Guru Sword. At that time, they thought that John Doe was a prodigal son who dared to take out a Guru Sword to auction.
But now it seemed that he still had one!
In the hall on the first floor.
Hearing Fang Qiu's bid, the ruddy-faced old guru immediately flashed a glimmer of light in his eyes.
Needless to say, the others were shocked.
It should be known.
A Guru Sword had been auctioned off for a total of three hundred million!
"Can the Guru Sword be used as a counterbalance?"
After bidding, Fang Qiu asked the auctioneer while everyone was shocked.
Indeed.
In the past few days, he had disappeared to make a Guru Sword.
"Our auction house can't make the decision because you are our supreme client, so we can contact the person who entrusted us with the auction for you and ask for his opinion."
The auctioneer said with a smile and then added, "Everyone can continue to bid. As for whether the Guru Sword can be used as a counterbalance, we will know later."
After that.
He immediately sent someone to contact the client.
On the other side.
Before the answer of whether the Guru Sword could be used as a counterbalance came out, no one dared to bid randomly. They were all waiting.
A minute later.
"Yes."
The auctioneer who received the news said, "The client has agreed that the Guru Sword can be used as a counterbalance, but there are still some problems with the price. I wonder how much do you think a Guru Sword can be used as a counterbalance?"
"200 million."
Fang Qiu said directly.
"Yes!"
Soon, the auction house received the client's reply.
Hearing this answer, Fang Qiu breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. However, the other top forces frowned at the same time when they heard this answer.
"In Wulin, who has the ability to digest the Guru Sword and take out the eighth Heaven Treasure, Dragon Grass?"
"Which force can do this?"
For a moment.
All the major forces began to speculate with each other.
"Mr. John Doe, bid: 200 million!"
On the auction stage, the auctioneer opened his mouth to bid.
This time.
Everyone didn't wait any longer, and they all started to bid!
"250 million!"
Qian Xiao bid.
"300 million."
The Xi family bid.
"350 million!"
Yun Yangzi waved his hand and joined in.
Just when everyone was waiting for the big families and forces on the second floor to continue to bid.
"400 million."
