Under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
Duan Lingtian, who had killed Wu Jian and the other four, descended from the sky and returned to Feng Tianwu's side in the pavilion as though nothing had happened.
It was as though everything that had happened earlier was not his doing.
At once, the crowd felt their scalps go numb.
"Who is he? He actually killed Wu Jian! "
"Sect Leader Wu Lie of the True Martial Sect has lost two of his sons consecutively. Once he finds out about this, I'm afraid he'll be so furious that he'll leave the True Martial Sect's estate immediately and rush to Ataraxia City."
"It's not just the Sect Leader of the True Martial Sect. Once the news of Wu Jian's death spreads, I'm afraid the other powerful old fellows in the True Martial Sect won't let this matter rest!"
…
Many people whispered among themselves as they broke out in cold sweat for Duan Lingtian.
However, when they saw Duan Lingtian sitting in the pavilion with a calm expression on his face, it was obvious that the other people were more worried than him.
"Let the auction continue!"
Zhou Ji said loudly when he saw that the matter had come to an end.
As for the five scattered corpses, the people from the Zhou Clan's Auction Market were responsible for cleaning them up.
At once, the crowd's attention in the Zhou Clan's Auction Market shifted from Duan Lingtian to Zhou Ji. Zhou Ji was the host of the auction this time.
The auction continued.
However, during the bidding for the following items, many people would look at Duan Lingtian from time to time. It was as though they wanted to know if Duan Lingtian was interested in the items being auctioned.
They were afraid that if they increased the price, it would displease this mysterious powerhouse and bring disaster upon themselves.
On Cloud Continent, the strong were revered. They had no choice but to be cautious.
If Duan Lingtian knew what they were thinking, he would definitely be speechless.
He was here to participate in the auction, not to be a bandit.
Besides …
Did he look like a bandit?
When they saw Duan Lingtian was resting with his eyes closed and did not show any interest in the following items, the other guests in the auction market finally felt at ease and continued to bid.
Time passed by quietly.
One by one, the auction items were bought at high prices.
"Originally, the grade one spirit saber in my hand was supposed to be the finale today."
On the auction stage, Zhou Ji's voice was transmitted into the ears of all the guests in the auction house, causing a wave of disapproving hisses.
"A first-grade spirit saber? The finale? Manager Zhou Ji, are you joking? "
As soon as Zhou Ji finished speaking, someone could not help but make fun of him.
"Yes, Manager Zhou Ji. How can a mere grade one spirit weapon be qualified to be the 'finale' of the large-scale auction that your Zhou Clan's Auction Square holds every three months? It's a wise move for you to take it out to auction first. "
"Not bad."
"A grade one spiritual artifact is precious. But in an auction like this, it's nothing. "
…
Many people said with a smile.
"Humph!"
Of course, there were also people who refuted the previous people's words. "Don't forget that there were also two grade one Spirit Weapons that were auctioned by Manager Zhou Ji earlier. However, those two grade one Spirit Weapons were auctioned early in the morning."
"Do you think the grade one spirit saber that was considered the finale by the Zhou Clan's Auction Square is an ordinary grade one spirit weapon?"
The people who said these words had all thought it through carefully.
So far, two grade one spirit weapons had been auctioned off in this auction. The grade one spirit saber in Zhou Ji's hand was the third grade one spirit weapon.
Zhou Ji said that this grade one spirit saber was the finale of the auction today. This meant that there must be something extraordinary about it.
"Manager Zhou Ji, is that so?"
Soon, many people began to ask.
"That's right!"
Zhou Ji nodded in the face of the gazes and said, "The grade one spirit saber in my hand is a supreme-grade grade one spirit weapon! Now, all of you should know why it's qualified to be the finale of the auction today, right? "
The moment Zhou Ji's words left his mouth, the entire place fell silent. Only the sound of heavy breathing could be heard.
A supreme-grade grade one spirit weapon.
Naturally, they knew what it was.
Only a grade one spirit weapon that had an 89% boost was qualified to be called a supreme-grade grade one spirit weapon.
In other words, the current auction item, the grade one spirit saber in Manager Zhou Ji's hand, was a grade one spirit saber that had an 89% boost in strength.
There was not much difference between a grade one spirit weapon that had an 89% boost in strength and an 88% boost in strength.
At the very least, there was not much difference in a battle between martial artists.
The difference in strength could be made up for with battle experience and martial skills.
However, a grade one spirit weapon like this was a rare treasure to a grade one weapons craftsman. This was because a grade one weapons craftsman might be able to improve his weapon crafting skills by studying it.
Due to this reason, a grade one spirit weapon like this was extremely valuable.
Naturally, it was worth bragging about using a grade one spirit weapon like this. This was because grade one spirit weapons like this were extremely rare on Cloud Continent.
As the saying went, 'A thing is precious when it is rare.' This was the case.
"A grade one spirit weapon that has an 89% boost in strength?"
At this moment, even Duan Lingtian opened his eyes and looked at the grade one spirit saber in Zhou Ji's hand with interest.
As someone who had merged with the Reincarnation Emperor Wu's memories and inherited the Reincarnation Emperor Wu's refining skills and experience, naturally, Duan Lingtian knew how difficult it was to refine a grade one spirit weapon that had an 89% boost in strength.
'I can't believe there's still someone in this world who can refine a grade one spirit weapon like this.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
When Duan Lingtian was looking at the grade one spirit saber in Zhou Ji's hand, the other people in the VIP area shifted their attention from the grade one spirit saber to Duan Lingtian.
All of them wanted to bid for the grade one spirit saber.
However, when they remembered that Duan Lingtian was here, they could not help but look at Duan Lingtian. They wanted to know if Duan Lingtian was interested in the grade one spirit saber as well.
"He's also looking at the grade one spirit saber!"
"Don't tell me he's also interested in the grade one spirit saber?"
"Isn't it obvious?"
"Who dares to compete with him if he wants it?"
"Aren't you wearing a mask? What are you afraid of? "
"Do you think it makes a difference whether I'm wearing a mask or not to a powerhouse at his level? He can kill me as soon as I bid for the grade one spirit saber. "
"That's true."
…
The group of people in the VIP area discussed among themselves. In the end, those who were not wearing masks had a bitter expression on their faces.
As for those who were wearing masks, their expressions could not be seen. However, all of them shook their heads and sighed.
Their discussion entered Duan Ling Tian's ears in full detail, and it caused Duan Ling Tian to be speechless. He could not help but frown as he said, "All of you … Are you treating me like a bandit?"
"Put aside the fact that I'm not interested in this broken saber, even if I was, I wouldn't use such a despicable method to snatch it!"
"Moreover! If I wanted to snatch it, there's no need for the Zhou Clan's auction fair to hold an auction. I'll just snatch everything! "
Duan Lingtian said.
Everyone felt a little awkward when they heard Duan Lingtian's words.
However, based on Duan Lingtian's words, they were certain that Duan Lingtian was not interested in the grade one spirit saber. He even called it a broken saber.
"Don't worry, everyone … This guest won't be interested in the grade one spirit saber in my hand."
Zhou Ji chimed in at this moment.
As for the reason, he knew very well.
Among the two auction items that replaced the grade one spirit saber in his hand, one of them was a grade one spirit weapon that was even more perfect than the grade one spirit saber.
That grade one spirit weapon was the purple-clad young man who had put it up for auction.
Naturally, the purple-clad young man would not be interested in this grade one spirit saber.
Upon hearing Duan Lingtian's words and Zhou Ji's words, everyone nodded one after another. They no longer had any concerns and stared at the grade one spirit saber in Zhou Ji's hand like hungry wolves.
"Now, let's begin the auction for the grade one spirit saber in my hand that can provide an 89% boost in strength … The starting bid for this grade one spirit saber is 3,000 high-grade Origin Stones!"
3,000 high-grade Origin Stones!
Duan Lingtian could not help but click his tongue when he heard Zhou Ji's words.
In fact, the total value of all the materials used to refine a grade one spirit weapon was only about 100 high-grade Origin Stones. Naturally, that was only the cost of the materials.
'It seems like the starting bid for the grade one spirit sword that I put up for auction is even higher than this.'
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
Just as Duan Lingtian was thinking about this, the grade one spirit saber in Zhou Ji's hand had already been auctioned for 10,000 high-grade Origin Stones.
Moreover, the price was still rising.
"30,000 high-grade Origin Stones!"
"40,000 high-grade Origin Stones!"
…
Currently, the people who bid were basically the guests in the VIP area. The guests in the ordinary area had extinguished their bids one by one.
"These people can take out so many high-grade Origin Stones so casually."
Duan Lingtian looked around the VIP area. His eyes shone brightly as they swept past everyone. He thought to himself, 'If I kill these people, wouldn't I be able to obtain a huge amount of wealth?'
However, Duan Lingtian only thought about it.
He did not lack high-grade Origin Stones now.
Just the Ling Tian Sect that he controlled alone would mine hundreds of thousands or even millions of high-grade Origin Stones from the high-grade Origin Stone reserve that he controlled every year.
As long as he was willing, he could mobilize more disciples in the Ling Tian Sect to mine more high-grade Origin Stones.
In the end, the grade one spirit saber with an 89% amplification was auctioned off for 110,000 high-grade Origin Stones.
"Haha … Everyone, thank you for letting me win."
The person who bid for the grade one spirit saber was a white-haired old man wearing a mask. After he laughed, he took out a Spatial Ring that contained 110,000 high-grade Origin Stones and exchanged it for the grade one spirit saber.
"Good saber!"
The old man was elated when he obtained the spirit saber.
"110,000 high-grade Origin Stones? With this lousy saber? "
Duan Lingtian did not expect a grade one spirit saber with an 89% amplification would be auctioned off for such a high price.
"When the grade one spirit sword that I put up for auction comes out … Won't it fetch an even higher price?"
