"I bid eight hundred spirit stones."
As soon as Kong Xiao finished speaking, some of the cultivators below the stone platform began to bid.
Wang Changsheng already had a high-grade flying tool and knew that its quality wouldn't be below this Jade Net Boat, so he didn't bid.
"One thousand five hundred spirit stones." A somewhat sharp voice pushed the price to a new height.
Hearing this price, the other people who were still competing immediately shut their mouths.
One thousand five hundred spirit stones could buy a top-grade magic tool. This was only the first auction item, so it wasn't worth spending too many spirit stones to bid for this flying magic tool.
Wang Changsheng's Scarlet Spirit Boat was priced at two thousand spirit stones, but because it was made by the sect's Tool Refining Grandmaster, its flying speed wasn't inferior to ordinary top-grade flying magic tools, so it didn't matter if it was a bit more expensive.
"Fellow Daoist number 132 bid one thousand five hundred spirit stones. Is there any higher bid? Good, one, two, three. This high-grade flying magic tool, Jade Net Boat, belongs to this Fellow Daoist. Fellow Daoist can now go backstage to hand over the item. "Kong Xiao's hand was holding a small glittering hammer. He knocked it on the table and announced the ownership of this flying magic tool.
As soon as Kong Xiao's voice fell, a cultivator wearing a black cloak stood up. Under the lead of a red-clothed maid, they left the hall through a nearby side door.
"The second auction item is a top-grade magic tool, Silver Moon Blade. It was refined by our Kong Family's Tool Refining Grandmaster. The starting price is five hundred spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than one hundred spirit stones." Kong Xiao took out a glittering silver flying knife and said with a smile.
"Six hundred spirit stones."
"Eight hundred spirit stones."
"One thousand one hundred spirit stones."
In the end, this top-grade magic tool was bought by a large dark-faced man for one thousand six hundred spirit stones. After the dark-faced man walked out of the side door, he hurriedly left the hall. Obviously, this person was most likely a rogue cultivator or a cultivator from a small sect. He was worried that he would be targeted, so he quickly left after bidding for a desirable item.
Next, Kong Xiao took out a few more precious auction items, and each of them was auctioned off at a high level. The atmosphere in the hall also became lively.
Kong Xiao took out three palm-sized square wooden boxes from his storage bag. After opening them one by one, a golden bead was placed in each of the wooden boxes. Among them, the bead in the middle wooden box was slightly larger.
"A Demonic Beast's Inner Core." When Wang Changsheng saw these three items, these four words involuntarily flashed through his mind.
Kong Xiao picked up the wooden box in the middle and introduced it to the crowd with a smile, "There are three Inner Cores of the Golden Feathered Eagles. The one in my hand is a Level Three Golden Feathered Eagle's Inner Core, and the two on the table are Level Two Golden Feathered Eagle's Inner Cores. If there are any fellow Daoists who can tame Spirit Birds, don't miss these three Inner Cores."
Wang Changsheng nodded. Of these three Inner Cores, he had to win at least one. If he won all three, it would be difficult. Even if he won all three, he probably wouldn't have enough spirit stones to bid for the Wu Clan's Fire Escape Talisman.
"Three Inner Cores. The Level Two Golden Feathered Eagle's Inner Core will be auctioned together. The starting price will be one thousand spirit stones, and each increment must be no less than two hundred spirit stones. The Level Three Golden Feathered Eagle's Inner Core will be one thousand five hundred spirit stones, and each increment must be no less than one hundred spirit stones. Let's start with the Level Two Golden Feathered Eagle's Inner Core."
Just as Kong Xiao finished speaking, Wang Changsheng immediately shouted, "I'll bid four thousand spirit stones."
Two days ago, the Giant Sword Sect's Li Dian had taken out a Level Two Inner Core and exchanged it for one thousand five hundred spirit stones. At that time, Wang Changsheng didn't have many spirit stones on him, so he didn't say anything. However, in the past two days, Wang Changsheng's bag of holding had increased by several thousand spirit stones. Now that he saw another Inner Core, he naturally wouldn't let it go. As for the price of four thousand spirit stones, it was mainly to scare off other cultivators who wanted to bid. Two Level Two Inner Cores were worth at least three thousand spirit stones. If he let these people increase the price bit by bit, then the price might exceed four thousand spirit stones. Rather than this, Wang Changsheng might as well directly call out a high price.
Sure enough, as Wang Changsheng expected, after hearing his bid, everyone was a bit surprised. Some people curiously looked in his direction, but when they saw that Wang Changsheng was wearing Taiqing Palace clothes, they all withdrew their gazes. Of course, some people's eyes flashed with greed.
Perhaps because Wang Changsheng's bid was too high, no one spoke for a while.
"Fellow Daoist number two hundred and eighty has bid four thousand spirit stones. Are there any other Fellow Daoists who want to bid?" Kong Xiao saw this and was about to announce the ownership of the two Inner Cores.
"I'll bid four thousand three hundred spirit stones." A somewhat lazy voice suddenly rang out.
When Kong Xiao heard this, his face lit up and he quickly said, "Fellow Daoist number one hundred and seventy one has bid four thousand three hundred spirit stones. Are there any higher bids?" As he finished speaking, his gaze fell on Wang Changsheng.
"Four thousand five hundred." Wang Changsheng frowned and added two hundred spirit stones.
"Four thousand eight hundred."
"I'll bid five thousand spirit stones. If there's a higher bid, then let him have it!" Wang Changsheng said with a calm face.
"Fellow Daoist number two hundred and eighty has bid five thousand spirit stones. Are there any higher bids? These are the Inner Cores of two demon birds! If you let your spirit bird swallow it, it will be very beneficial. If it's a level one spirit bird, it may be able to advance to level two. "
Kong Xiao said with a ho tone.
However, five thousand spirit stones was indeed too much. Cultivator number one hundred and seventy one didn't speak.
Seeing this situation, Kong Xiao could only announce the ownership of the two Inner Cores and start the bidding for the level three Golden Feathered Eagle's Inner Core.
Under the guidance of a red-clothed maid, Immortal Wang walked into a side door nearby.
Behind the side door, a green-robed Daoist had been waiting for a long time. Next to him was a red-clothed maid with a red tray in her hand. On the tray were two wooden boxes.
"Fellow Daoist, these are the things you want. If there's no mistake, you can return to the hall to participate in the auction after paying the spirit stones." The green-robed Daoist pointed to the two wooden boxes on the tray and said with a smile.
Wang Changsheng nodded and opened the wooden boxes to take a look. They were indeed the Inner Cores he saw on the high platform just now. After confirming that there was no mistake, he took out fifty mid-grade spirit stones and handed them to the green-robed Daoist.
The green-robed Daoist counted them. After confirming that the number was correct, he asked the red-clothed maid to lead Wang Changsheng back to the hall.
When Wang Changsheng returned to the hall, Kong Xiao was already sitting on a chair. At this time, the auctioneer on the high platform was a middle-aged Confucian scholar.
"Rosin ink, refined from a five-hundred-year-old black elemental gum tree. Fellow Daoists who practice Confucian cultivation methods should not miss this opportunity. The starting price is five hundred spirit stones, and each bid must not be less than two hundred spirit stones." The middle-aged Confucian scholar raised his right hand high, holding a rectangular black block in his hand.
This kind of thing could only be used by cultivators who practiced Confucian cultivation methods. The cultivators present came from different places, and there were not many people who practiced Confucian cultivation methods. In the end, this magic tool was bought by a young man dressed like a scholar at the price of one thousand three hundred spirit stones.
Next, the middle-aged Confucian scholar took out several auction items, but none of them were sold for high level items. This made Kong Xiao sitting on the chair a little proud.
In order to attract popularity, the three families jointly held this auction. However, the three families were secretly competing. Kong Xiao's auction items were sold for high prices, but the middle-aged Confucian scholar of the Nangong family did not sell for high level items. In comparison, their Kong family was naturally a little better. Kong Xiao could not help but show a touch of pride.
