It was past five in the afternoon, and the auction was coming to an end.
The auctioneer, Yun Mei'er, could not help but smirk again after auctioning off an ancient relic.
"Now, there are nine more items to be auctioned."
The crowd was stirred as soon as she said that.
The reason being, everyone knew that there were only seven demigod relics and two god relics left for the next set of items.
Even the guests in the VIP rooms on the second and third floor stopped what they were doing and had their eyes on the auction stage. They were waiting for the final climax of the auction.
"Next, would you please bring out the first demigod relic for us today?"
As soon as Yun Mei'er was done speaking, two men in black suits pushed a display case that was covered with a red cloth onto the auction stage.
"Today's first demigod relic is also our second demigod-level item. What will it be?" Yun Mei 'er smiled as she pulled a corner of the red cloth with her hand. She paused for a moment and swept her gaze across the hall. When she realized that everyone was looking at her, she flicked her wrist and lifted the red cloth.
In the transparent display case, there was an ancient-looking long sword with the tip pointing downwards. It was spinning slowly with the sword's spine as the center.
It was the display effect of the anti-gravity sigils and the balance sigils that were carved on the inside of the display case.
"This demigod long sword relic is called Red Cherry. It sounds like a lady's name, but in reality, its first owner was a demigod sword cultivator named Gu Yu in ancient times. He was a real hunk. As for the name of the sword, he named it after his dead wife. "
"Although this Red Cherry is just a mid-level demigod relic, according to the historical records that we've read, Master Gu Yu has killed at least 13 demigod-level monsters with it when he was alive."
"Personally, I think this is a great weapon for sword cultivators."
After a simple introduction, the guests had a better understanding of the long sword. Yun Mei'er then announced the starting price while smiling.
"Red Cherry, the starting price is 40 billion Life Crystals. Each increment must be no less than two billion!"
As soon as she was done speaking, the screens on the second floor lit up one after another.
"VIP room A2 bids 42 billion!"
"VIP room A11 bids 44 billion!"
"VIP room A23 bids 48 billion!"
"VIP room A41 bids 50 billion!"
Yun Mei'er called out four prices in a row, and the audience gasped in surprise.
In less than ten seconds, the price of the demigod relic had skyrocketed to ten billion.
"Only after attending the auction did I realize that there are so many rich people."
"These are only the bids from the A-class VIP rooms. The big shots in the S-class VIP rooms on the third floor have yet to make a bid."
"Those who are qualified to fight for the demigod relic are at least on imperial-level. It's normal for them to be rich."
"VIP room A53 bids 52 billion!"
"VIP room S1 directly bids 60 billion!"
"VIP room S2, raise the price to 70 billion!"
…
As soon as the two big shots in the S-class VIP room on the third floor made their moves, it caused another round of exclamations.
"The boss on the third floor has made his move!"
"That's a ruthless bid increase!"
"No wonder they're the bosses. They're increasing the price by eight billion and even ten billion."
"Rich people on the second floor, don't give up. Let's challenge him!"
…
As soon as the two big shots on the third floor made their moves, the few people on the second floor who were initially bidding stopped. There was only one person who made a bid of 75 billion, but the boss in VIP room S2 immediately choked him with 85 billion. He dared not make another bid.
"The guest in VIP room S1 bids again. 90 billion!"
As soon as Yun Mei'er called out, the screen in VIP room S2 lit up again.
"100 billion! The guest in VIP room S2 has increased the price by 10 billion again. It's obvious that he's determined to get Hong Ying! "
In VIP room S7, Lin Huang teased while smiling.
"It seems like the guest in VIP room S2 has a bad temper."
"I guess he's a demigod," Yi Zheng speculated.
After VIP room S2 placed a bid of 100 billion Life Crystals, everyone thought that it was over. Even the auctioneer, Yun Mei'er, was ready to announce the final winner.
Suddenly, the guest in VIP room S1 placed a bid again.
Yun Mei'er was stunned for a moment. She thought she was seeing things, but soon, she snapped back to her senses.
"The guest in VIP room S1 has made a bid again. 105 billion! It seems like he's not willing to give up! "
In reality, 100 billion had exceeded the upper limit of a normal mid-grade demigod relic. She did not expect that someone would still bid at this price.
"The dust should have settled by now, right?" Almost everyone in the venue was thinking the same thing.
However, at that moment, the screen in VIP room S2 lit up again.
Yun Mei'er's eyes widened. She did not expect the guest in VIP room S2 to be so obsessed with the sword.
"The guest in VIP room S2 has made a bid again. He's increased the price by 10 billion again. The current price is 115 billion!"
"Is there anyone who's willing to make a higher bid? If not, then this Hong Ying belongs to the guest in VIP Room S2. "
…
In VIP room S2 on the third floor, a muscular, short-haired lady had a ferocious expression on her face. "This sword is mine!"
115 billion clearly exceeded the upper limit of a mid-grade demigod relic. In the end, the guest in VIP room S1 did not increase the price further.
In the end, the first demigod relic on the last day of the auction was sold to the female demigod in VIP room S2 at a high price of 1,150.
The high price of the first demigod relic had ignited the atmosphere in the hall.
The people were getting more and more excited about the next item.
In VIP room S7, Yi Yeyu was shocked. "The people in Division 3 are really rich! A mid-grade demigod relic was sold at 115 billion. "
"Not only Division 3, but many rich people from Divisions 1 and 2 came to the auction as well," Yi Zheng corrected her.
Lin Huang smiled and explained, "There are many reasons why it's sold at such a high price. However, the main reason is that the guests in S1 and S2 VIP lounges are in desperate need of this Sakura. The two of them have been competing against each other for the Sakura. "
"Especially the guest in VIP room S2, he's obviously hot-tempered. No matter how much the others increase the price, he'll increase it by ten billion. If he didn't increase the price so much, the final price wouldn't be so high.
"In reality, I think if the guest in VIP room S2 calms down and increases the price by two billion, VIP room S1 won't bid anymore. He could've bought the sword at 107 billion, but he made himself spend eight billion Life Crystals for nothing. "
The first demigod relic was sold at a higher price than expected.
Although Yun Mei'er was happy that she had broken the record for a mid-grade demigod relic in Division 3, she did not delay her work at all. Soon, she got the staff to bring the second demigod relic up.
