Ye Tianze immediately activated the array formation in the box and called over the steward of the auction house.
This steward had seen Ye Tianze more than once. Seeing that he was still very polite, he said, "What orders do you have?"
"I want to auction an item." Ye Tianze said.
"This auction is coming to an end. If you have something to auction, I can give it to you to appraise. Our auction house has two modes. The first is to buy out your item, and the second is for you to auction it yourself. We will take a 10% commission."
The steward said politely.
"En!"
Ye Tianze thought for a moment, then said, "If I auction it now, it'll be an extra bid."
When the steward heard this, he frowned. "You know that I don't have the authority. Please don't make it difficult for us."
"What if the item's value is high enough?" Ye Tianze smiled. "For example, if it's more valuable than this cultivation method."
The steward naturally knew what he was talking about. After a moment of silence, he said, "Wait a moment. I'll be right back."
"Wait." Ye Tianze called out. "When you go to inform them, it's best that you don't tell them that I'm the one who wants to auction this item. However, I'm certain that this item is definitely more valuable than the Hand of Hell that's currently on auction."
The steward was a bit embarrassed, but he still nodded. If the guest requested it, they would keep the secret for the guest.
After a long time, the steward returned and said, "You can increase the bid, but the prerequisite is that you have to appraise it first. This will take some time."
Ye Tianze didn't stand on ceremony. He directly took out the Jade Slips and said, "There is a restriction inside this item. I've set up another restriction. I can let you examine it, but it will take at most half an hour. I hope you can get it back immediately!"
The steward carefully took the Jade Slips and quickly went to appraise it. In the auction house, there was a place specifically responsible for appraising items.
The steward was very punctual. He returned half an hour later. At this time, the price of the Hell's Hand had risen from 9 billion to 10.5 billion.
Iron Hammer was clearly deliberately slowing down the speed of the auction. That was because he knew that these two powers were competing behind the scenes. They would definitely raise the price of this treasure to a sky-high price. And what he would receive from the auction house wouldn't be as simple as a service fee.
When they had bought it, they had only spent 2 billion Saint Grade Purple Gold Coins, but now, the price was several times higher than the original price.
One was willing to be beaten, and the other was willing to be beaten, so why not?
When the manager returned, the way he looked at Ye Tianze changed. He said, "Are you sure you want to auction this treasure?"
"Yes!" Ye Tianze smiled. "You know what this is, right?"
"Of course I know." The steward smiled bitterly.
"How much do you estimate?" Ye Tianze asked.
"That's hard to estimate, but it does exceed the price of the item in front of us!" The manager said.
"I need Saint Grade Purple Gold Coins right now. I hope that the auction house can give me some in advance," Ye Tianze said.
When the manager heard this, he immediately understood why Ye Tianze wanted to auction off the Jade Slips. He nodded his head and asked, "How much do you need?"
"How many Saint Grade Purple Gold Coins do you think I can get this cultivation technique?" Ye Tianze asked.
"15 billion. You can definitely get it." The manager chuckled. "You don't need to withdraw. You can bid directly. If you bid more, it will be deducted from your future earnings."
After the manager left, Ye Tianze's mood improved again.
The auction was still going on. The price had already reached 11 billion, so the bidding of Room 73 wasn't as casual as before.
Clearly, Su Yuhan was worried that he would overdo it. Thus, the final price stopped at 11.1 billion.
"11.1 billion? The Mysterious Underworld Race is really rich and overbearing."
"The Mysterious Underworld Race is the number one overlord of the myriad realms. How many years have they accumulated?"
Iron Hammer was very satisfied that the auction house had earned 2.1 billion. However, the cultivators present were dumbfounded.
This also confirmed the saying that money was just a number in the eyes of the rich. It could be converted into resources and power, so they wouldn't feel any heartache no matter how much money they spent.
But for ordinary cultivators like them, even tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of purple gold coins were a huge fortune, let alone hundreds of millions of purple gold coins.
Iron Hammer shouted three times in satisfaction as he prepared to strike his third hammer.
Suddenly, Ye Tianze's voice was heard. "11.5 billion!"
The calm auction hall was instantly drowned out by Ye Tianze's voice. Iron Hammer's hand, which was holding the hammer, stopped. He was already used to this action, so he was inexplicably delighted.
Someone was still bidding at this time?
When he looked over excitedly, his hand trembled slightly. The bidder was Ye Tianze from Room 19.
"Room 19! Why is it this fella again? Plus, this fella just raised the bid by 400 million!"
"More than 10 billion! This must be an ancient civilization. An ancient civilization from the heavens."
"He hid it well! He really hid it well!"
Ye Tianze's bid caused an uproar in the auction hall. If it hadn't been for the array formation isolating the auction hall, Ye Tianze would have felt suffocated by the countless gazes directed at him.
Su Yuhan, who was in Room 73, was stunned. "This fella just spent close to 7 billion purple gold coins. Where did he get so many purple gold coins from?"
Even the Void Race wouldn't be able to take out close to 20 billion purple gold coins in a short period of time. However, this was the Iron Badger Race's auction house.
It was simply impossible to bid without enough purple gold coins.
Bam!
In Room 11, a Mysterious Underworld Being raised his hand and smashed the table in the room into smithereens.
Ye Tianze's bid was undoubtedly the last straw that broke the camel's back. Furthermore, it wasn't just one straw, but many.
11.1 billion purple gold coins was already the limit they could bear, yet the other party had raised the bid by 400 million.
This had already exceeded their expectations. The Mysterious Underworld Race couldn't possibly take out more sacred purple gold coins to compete with the faction in Room 19.
After a brief discussion, the auction hall once again fell silent. Even Iron Hammer was doubtful as to where Ye Tianze had gotten so many purple gold coins.
Suddenly, he recalled the voice transmission his subordinate had sent him midway through the auction. He suddenly understood.
"How did this fella obtain the Desolate Sky Armor's Original Jade Slips?" Iron Hammer would never have dreamed that Ye Tianze would be the one auctioning the Desolate Sky Armor's Jade Slips.
He had always believed that the Void Race would be the one auctioning the armor, as the Void Race and the Mysterious Underworld Race had been in a heated conflict recently.
"What a shit-stirrer. This fella is a shit-stirrer. Even if the sky were to fall, he wouldn't be bothered!" Iron Hammer thought to himself.
He knew that the Mysterious Underworld Race would definitely not continue bidding. The truth was just as he had expected. Ye Tianze's bid had not only attracted everyone's attention, but he had also won the treasure easily.
Most importantly, he hadn't spent his own money. Furthermore, Iron Hammer realized that besides him, probably no one else knew that the next item would be Ye Tianze's work. They would only suspect the Void Race!
