The Auction Begins
"You've achieved the effect of public opinion. However, the sword you mentioned, it seems like you haven't refined it yet, right?" Lin Xianyu said with a smile when he saw the discussion going on in Nanyun City.
"I haven't refined it yet!" Mu Yun said casually, "Did I say I'm the one who refined it? If I had to refine all the Earth Weapons, I would be exhausted to death. "
"Could it be … Qi Yufeng has advanced to a low-grade Earth Weapon Refiner!"
Lin Xianyu was dumbfounded.
Mu Yun had just returned and Qi Yufeng was already able to refine a low-grade Earth Weapon.
"Why are you looking at me like that?" Mu Yun touched her face that was covered by a purple veil and said with a smile, "It seems like you have good taste. You can feel my handsome face even through my veil."
"…"
When the news was released, the entire Nanyun City was talking about it. The Divine Pavilion in three days was bound to be full of guests.
At the same time, the Divine Pavilion also made an announcement. One had to pay more than one million high-grade Spiritual Stones in order to be qualified to participate in the auction.
After all, regardless of whether it was a low-grade Earth Weapon or a seventh-grade Upper Grade Elixir, they all required a huge amount of wealth.
If there were no restrictions, the three inner and outer floors of the Divine Pavilion would be filled to the brim.
Within three days, the number of VIPs in the Divine Pavilion increased by a few hundred. Almost all the powerful financial groups in the Nanyun Empire had come for the auction.
On this day, the Divine Pavilion opened and more than ten thousand people gathered at the entrance.
Although some people did not have the wealth to enter the auction, they could still go to the Divine Pavilion to watch the fun.
In these three days, Mu Yun had made all the necessary preparations.
After all, the auction this time might exceed ten million high-grade Spiritual Stones. With such a huge transaction, it was hard to guarantee that some ignorant people would attack the Divine Pavilion.
The auction had officially begun.
In the Divine Pavilion, in each private room, powerful auras fluctuated, causing people's hearts to tremble.
The Gu Clan, Lin Clan, Xiao Clan, the royal family, and Green Shadow Blood Sect had all arrived. Even the Sacred Elixir Pavilion had sent people.
In the Seven Virtues College, Zhang Zihao, Mo Qingtian, Mo Wen, Gan Jingyu, and the Red Dust Great Master had also arrived.
This was a banquet.
However, while they were the main characters of the feast, they were also the ones being manipulated.
These words were naturally said by Mu Yun.
At this moment, Mu Yun, dressed in a purple robe, was standing in the middle of the auction hall.
"Hello everyone. I, Zi Mu, will be the host of this auction." Mu Yun bowed respectfully and said, "I'm sure everyone already knows about this auction. However, my Ethereal Pavilion still has some excellent items. I'll bring a few up as an appetizer."
As Mu Yun spoke, someone was already carrying a large box and walking over.
The box was three meters long and half a meter wide. It looked very heavy.
When he opened the box, he saw a pair of spears lying on the ground.
The silver spear and the black spear complemented each other perfectly. Moreover, the silver spear emitted a buzzing sound while the black spear was surrounded by flames. One look and one could tell that it was an extraordinary spear.
"This black and silver spear was refined by Master Qi Yufeng of our pavilion. However, I can't say what level it is!"
"Mister Zi Mu, why can't you say?"
"Haha … Master Qi wanted to refine this pair of spears into an Inferior Grade Earth Weapon, but he didn't expect it to fail. After that, with the help of our pavilion's Earthly Blacksmith, the spears didn't fail. However, they aren't Inferior Grade Earth Weapons. Nevertheless, they are stronger than Supreme-Grade Profound Weapons. That's why I can't say."
Hearing Mu Yun's words, there was an uproar in the hall.
Stronger than a Supreme-Grade Profound Weapon and not Inferior Grade Earth Weapons, it was at least a semi-finished Earth Weapon. In terms of power, it was definitely stronger than a Supreme-Grade Profound Weapon.
However, Master Hong Chen, who was in the crowd, was envious when he heard this.
He knew that the Ethereal Pavilion's Earthly Blacksmith was Zi Mu.
Originally, they had thought that Zi Mu was a Low Level Earthly Blacksmith. But now, it seemed that Zi Mu was definitely not as simple as a Low Level Earthly Blacksmith to be able to save a Low Level Earthly Blacksmith that was on the verge of failure.
"Alright, then the starting price will be one million and five hundred thousand spirit stones. Each increment must not be less than one hundred thousand spirit stones." Mu Yun smiled and said, "Of course, this auction is all Upper Grade Spirit Stones. If anyone has a Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone, the Ethereal Pavilion will accept it."
One million and five hundred thousand spirit stones was something that many of the people present could still afford.
"Two million!"
Just as Mu Yun finished speaking, a bid was raised.
Master Hong Chen immediately spoke.
"Two million and one hundred thousand!" Someone immediately followed.
"Two million and five hundred thousand!"
"Two million and seven hundred thousand!"
"Three million!"
Hearing that someone was raising the price, Master Hong Chen did not back down at all. He looked like he was determined to get the spear.
"Master Hong Chen, you are a Supreme-Grade Profound Blacksmith. Why are you so interested in the twin spears? Four million!"
A voice was heard. It was the Xiao Clan's Clan Leader, Xiao Zhantian.
Xiao Zhantian did not participate in the three major clans' encirclement against the Mu Clan three years ago. Therefore, he did not suffer a great loss. In the past three years, he had been training his troops. After Young Clan Leader Xiao Qinyu's strength improved by leaps and bounds and became the second expert on the Dragon Ranking, the clan gradually stabilized.
Therefore, among the four major clans, the Xiao Clan was gradually becoming stronger.
"Four million and five hundred thousand!"
Seeing that Xiao Zhantian was competing with him, Master Hong Chen was very unhappy. He only wanted to learn the contract inscriptions of the half-completed low-grade Earth Weapon. He did not know what was wrong with Xiao Zhantian, but he insisted on competing with him.
"Five million!"
Xiao Zhantian spoke again.
Five million!
"Five million is almost enough to buy a low-grade Earth Weapon. Xiao Zhantian is really rich!"
"The Xiao Clan is now on the rise. Xiao Zhantian probably bought this half-completed Earth Weapon for his son."
"That's possible. Xiao Qinyu is now a famous person in the Seven Virtues College. I'm afraid he will surpass Gu Chihen soon."
Hearing that Xiao Zhantian called out five million Upper Spiritual Stones, everyone was shocked.
"Six million!"
Master Hong Chen was furious. As the top Profound Blacksmith in the empire for many years, his wealth was no less than that of a major clan.
Seeing that Xiao Zhantian insisted on competing with him, he was also furious.
"Master Hong Chen, you are so generous. I, Xiao Zhantian, am convinced!"
Xiao Zhantian sat down with an ugly expression on his face.
Master Hong Chen thought that Xiao Zhantian was making things difficult for him, and Xiao Zhantian thought the same.
Now, in the Southern Cloud Empire, the Sacred Elixir Pavilion and Tong Shen Pavilion could make Earth Weapons. If he needed a weapon, he would not necessarily ask for Hong Chen's help.
If he offended Hong Chen, then so be it.
But he did not expect Hong Chen to be so stubborn.
However, there was a real low-grade Earth Weapon below. It would be better to fight for it later.
In the end, the half-completed Earth Weapon was bought by Hong Chen for six million Upper Spiritual Stones.
"Alright, this is enough for the appetizer. Zi Mu just wants to tell everyone that the Sacred Elixir Pavilion has the ability to make high-grade weapons. If you make enough Divine Weapons, the Tong Shen Pavilion will give you a twenty percent discount."
Twenty percent discount!
This was a great discount.
A Low Rank Profound Artifact would cost a few hundred thousand Medium Rank Spirit Stones. Big forces like the Xiao Family and the Gu Family had tens of thousands of martial artists. They needed countless Profound Artifacts. With a 20% discount, they could save the price of a Low Rank Earth Artifact.
"Haha … Generous, the Tong Shen Pavilion is really generous. In the future, the Xiao Clan's business will be with the Tong Shen Pavilion." Xiao Zhantian laughed.
"The Tong Shen Pavilion is really great. The Gu Clan will also consider it!"
"Yes, that's right. A twenty percent discount. The Tong Shen Pavilion is really generous."
Hearing Mu Yun's words, all the forces were happy.
"Twenty percent discount?" Gu Xinya frowned. "Twenty percent discount? That means the Tong Shen Pavilion's profit will be halved."
"Pavilion Master, Mister Zi Mu said that the short-term profit reduction is for the long-term profit increase."
Qi Ming replied.
"You guys are really obedient to Mister Zi Mu. Aren't you afraid that he will sell the Tong Shen Pavilion?"
"Haha … Pavilion Master, you must be joking. This time, Mister Zi Mu will give all the profits from the low-grade Earth Weapons and seventh-grade elixir pills to the Tong Shen Pavilion. He doesn't want any of it."
"Oh? Is there such a thing? "
Wang Xinya had a smile on her face.
"Pavilion Master, don't worry. This person is like us. He has a deep hatred for Mentor Mu's … death, the three big clans, and the Green Shadow Blood Sect. That's why I trust him."
"Yes!"
"Good, I hope everyone will support me when the time comes!" Mu Yun stood on the host's stage and smiled. "Let's start today's main event. First, the auction of the low-grade Earth Weapon, the Crimson Dragon Sword."
As she spoke, the Crimson Dragon Sword was already on the stage.
"The Crimson Dragon Sword is a low-grade Earth Weapon. After careful verification, there is no problem with it. Let me demonstrate the power of this sword to everyone. Perhaps everyone will understand!"
As Mu Yun spoke, she raised her hand and picked up the Crimson Dragon Sword.
The sword was three feet long, and it was called the Crimson Dragon Sword!
When the sword was drawn, it was ethereal and clean. A scorching aura swept across the entire martial arts field.
Mu Yun's sword and the scorching aura, together with her sword technique, brought an intense shock to everyone in the field.
"Good sword!"
Zhang Zihao sat in the auction field and couldn't help but slap his thigh and shout.
"I must get this sword!" Zhang Zihao said with certainty. "This sword is extremely suitable for my sword technique. This sword belongs to me. Today, friends, please support me."
The few people around Zhang Zihao immediately nodded in response.
It was as if this sword was specially made for him!
In fact, Mu Yun was indeed made for him.
"I think everyone has seen how this sword is. The starting price is five million high-grade Spiritual Stones, which is fifty thousand supreme-grade Spiritual Stones!"
Supreme-grade Spiritual Stones were rare in the Southern Cloud Empire. Usually, people would not take them out to trade. Most of them were left for their own core disciples to cultivate.
"Five million and five hundred thousand!"
"Six million!"
"Six million and two hundred thousand!"
"Liu Laosan, you have the nerve to add two hundred thousand!"
"Six million and five hundred thousand!"
The bidding continued, while the Four Great Clans, Green Shadow Blood Sect, Mo Qingtian, and the others all remained silent.
Mu Yun's eyes, through the purple robe, were staring at Zhang Zihao. He didn't believe that Zhang Zihao wouldn't make a move.
"Seven million!"
Finally, Zhang Zihao couldn't help but raise the price.
"Eight million!"
At this time, Xiao Zhantian also raised the price.
Eight million high-grade Spiritual Stones to buy a low-grade Earth Weapon was indeed not worth it.
