A long queue had already formed in front of the Holy Sorcerer Manor as a large number of martial artists lined up to enter the manor.
These martial artists were all Martial Honorables. After all, ordinary Martial Emperors did not have the right to enter such a large scale auction.
As for Martial Sages, Su Mo had yet to discover any as there were very few Martial Sages.
If it was an auction that specifically targeted Martial Sages, it wouldn't be such a large scale auction.
Seven to eight Sorcerer Tribe martial artists stood in front of the manor. All of them were high-ranked Martial Honorables and they were in charge of guarding the manor and collecting Spiritual Crystals.
It wasn't too much to pay 100,000 Middle Spiritual Crystals to enter the manor to participate in the auction.
Not long later, Su Mo handed over the Spiritual Crystals and successfully entered the manor.
The manor was large and it took up a few thousand feet of land. It was built like a fighting arena.
However, at the top of the stands, there was a circle of VIP rooms that surrounded the entire place. There were more than a hundred of them.
Su Mo fell silent for a while before he walked up the stairs to the entrance of the VIP room. There was a Sorcerer Tribe martial artist guarding the entrance and after asking around, he found out that he had to pay 100,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals to enter the VIP room.
Spiritual Crystals did not mean much to Su Mo now. He handed over the Spiritual Crystals and successfully entered a VIP room. It was VIP room 68.
The VIP room was luxurious with crystal walls, animal skin tables and chairs, and the fragrance of sandalwood permeated the air.
Through the crystal walls, Su Mo could see the entire auction hall.
"There are no Martial Sages here!" Su Mo muttered to himself as his eyes scanned the crowd. There were more than 10,000 people gathered in the auction hall and there were still more coming in.
However, there wasn't a single Martial Sage among them. There were quite a number of Sage-to-be martial artists.
Granted, there might be Martial Sages in the other VIP rooms. However, there wouldn't be any strong Martial Sages in this auction hall.
"Fei Tianyu!"
Right at that moment, Su Mo's eyes narrowed as he saw a familiar face. It was Fei Tianyu of the Flying Spirit Clan.
At that moment, Fei Tianyu's aura was vast and pure. A faint Sage aura surrounded him and he was a Martial Sage.
"Why is he here?"
Su Mo wasn't surprised that Fei Tianyu had broken through to the Martial Sage Realm. After all, Fei Tianyu was a Sage-to-be. However, he was surprised that Fei Tianyu would appear in Green Jade Star.
Of course, Su Mo's strength was not weak. He could travel around the universe and Ancientspirit Galaxy easily.
"That's right, becoming a Saint in a hundred years!"
Su Mo nodded his head. Ancientspirit Galaxy had not seen a 100-year-old Martial Sage in a long time. Finally, one had appeared.
He did not feel any enmity toward Fei Tianyu. Although Fei Tianyu had been ruthless in his attacks during the Sky Dragon Contest, he had merely wanted to obtain victory.
Speaking of which, the other party's sacred sword was still in his hands.
Fei Tianyu's arrival immediately caused a commotion. Many people came forward to greet him.
However, Fei Tianyu did not converse with the others and entered a private room. As a Martial Sage, he naturally would not sit in the public seats below.
More and more people gathered at the auction and Su Mo waited patiently. He was planning to get all the more valuable treasures from the Sorcerer Tribe in this auction.
"Xuan Yuanlong!"
Not long later, Su Mo saw a familiar person. It was the Divine Son of Shenwu Academy, Xuan Yuanlong.
Although Xuan Yuanlong's aura was hidden, it did not escape Su Mo's eyes. He was a Sage-to-be.
Xuan Yuanlong's cultivation rank had risen very quickly. As expected of the Spirit-devouring Fighting Soul, it could devour the Spiritual Qi of heaven and earth.
Xuan Yuanlong was also a top talent and had become famous after the Sky Dragon Contest. Many people knew him and greeted him.
After Xuan Yuanlong greeted the crowd, he entered a private room.
As Su Mo waited, about an hour later, the entire auction hall was packed with more than 100,000 people. The place was noisy and filled with noise and excitement.
At that point, the gates of the manor were closed and no one else entered.
The tall, rectangular stage in the middle of the auction hall led to a small palace at the side of the auction hall.
An elder strode out of the palace and walked to the center of the auction hall.
This elder had white hair and a skinny body. He wore a black and white robe and although he looked old, he was full of energy.
"Fourth Priest!" Su Mo's eyes narrowed when he saw this person. This person was not the Grand Priest but the Fourth Priest of the Heavenly Underworld Star.
Su Mo had seen this person before during the Young Priest Selection.
This person did not hide his cultivation rank and Su Mo could clearly see that he was an Initial Stage Martial Sage.
Su Mo's eyes narrowed. The Fourth Priest had appeared but the Grand Priest was nowhere to be seen.
It was obvious that the Grand Priest was in the palace and was in charge of the auction.
A mocking smile appeared on Su Mo's face. He would make the Sorcerer Tribe suffer heavy losses in this auction.
"Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the Holy Sorcerer Manor to participate in the auction hosted by the Heavenly Underworld Star Sorcerer Tribe. I am the Fourth Priest of the Heavenly Underworld Star Sorcerer Tribe …!"
After the Fourth Priest walked up the stage, he introduced himself with a smile and gave a long speech. Then, he added on to the atmosphere of the auction.
The so-called atmosphere of the auction was to stir up the emotions of the crowd. He introduced how many treasures there were in the auction and how precious they were.
A few moments later, the long speech ended and the crowd quietened down. The auction officially began.
"Next, let's invite the first auction item up the stage!" The Fourth Priest shouted. The moment his words fell, a slightly plump female servant from the Sorcerer Tribe walked up the stage. On the tray in her hands was a pure white Jade Slip.
When the crowd saw this, they immediately understood. The first auction item was a Martial Skill. However, they did not know what rank and type it was.
"The first auction item is a Martial Skill. Its name is Fire Holy Palm and it is a Lower Sage Class Martial Skill!" The Fourth Priest announced.
When the crowd heard the Fourth Priest's words, they were instantly shocked. It was actually a Lower Sage Class Martial Skill. Originally, they had thought that a Lower Sage Class Martial Skill would only appear in the later stages of the auction. Who would have thought that a Lower Sage Class Martial Skill would appear at the start of the auction?
The Fourth Priest scanned the crowd. Seeing that everyone was staring at him, he instantly smiled and said, "The starting price of this Martial Skill is 400,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals. Each bid must be at least 50,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals. The auction will begin now!"
As soon as the Fourth Priest's words fell, the crowd's eyes lit up. This starting price was not considered high among the Lower Sage Class Martial Skills.
"1,000,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals!"
Just as the crowd was about to start bidding, a calm voice suddenly rang out from the private room above.
Eh ~ ~
The crowd froze for a moment and immediately raised their heads to look at private room 68. This was because the voice had come from there.
The crowd was speechless. Who was this person? Wasn't he a hothead? He actually raised the bid to 1,000,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals? Was there anyone who would bid like that?
The starting price of this Lower Sage Class Martial Skill was relatively low and the Fourth Priest did not elaborate on it. It was obvious that this was the weakest Lower Sage Class Martial Skill. 1,000,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals was obviously a little too high.
The crowd instantly lost the mood to bid. The price had been raised to such a high level that there was no need to bid anymore. Moreover, this person was definitely extremely wealthy and there was no point in competing with him.
The Fourth Priest was stunned. He had not expected the price to be raised to 1,000,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals. However, a smile immediately appeared on his face.
This Martial Skill wasn't strong and it was only worth about 800,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals. It was already not bad to be able to sell it for 1,000,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals.
Clearing his throat, the Fourth Priest shouted, "The guest in private room 68 has bid 1,000,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals. Is there anyone who is willing to bid higher?"
After asking three times, no one responded. The crowd wasn't stupid and no one would bid higher.
"Good, congratulations to the guest in private room 68 for successfully obtaining the Flaming Holy Palm!" The Fourth Priest's loud voice rang through the entire crowd.
With that, the maidservant carried the tray and walked towards private room 68.
In the private room, Su Mo wore a light smile. A Lower Sage Class Martial Skill was a rare item for the Firmament Palace.
After all, there were more than a million people in the Firmament Palace and Sage Class Martial Skills and weapons were extremely rare.
Moreover, in terms of martial arts, it was impossible for everyone to cultivate the same martial arts. After all, everyone's talent and so on were different, and the martial arts they needed were also different.
As such, the more martial skills there were, the better. That way, every disciple would be able to choose a martial skill that was most suitable for them.
As such, Su Mo was the first to bid and kept the Martial Skill.
As for the Spiritual Crystals that he had to pay, that didn't exist. He didn't even think about paying the Spiritual Crystals. It was a great feeling to get something for nothing.
Very quickly, someone knocked on the door. Under Su Mo's signal, the slightly plump Sorcerer Tribe maidservant carried a tray and walked in.
"Young master, this is the item that you are bidding for. Please pay 1,000,000 Upper Spiritual Crystals!" The Sorcerer Tribe maidservant handed the jade slip to Su Mo and politely said.
"Mm, I still have many treasures to bid for. Can I pay after the auction ends?" Su Mo lightly asked.
"Sure!" The slightly plump maidservant immediately nodded her head. This was a normal matter and she didn't think much of it.
