"The starting price of this mysterious treasure is one billion. Old friends who are interested can take it back and study it!" Gongsun Xiong looked at the old fellows below and realized that they were not interested. He couldn't help but sigh inwardly. It seemed like this item was going to go unsold!
After a long time, no one made a bid. Everyone was not optimistic about this item. What was the use of just being sturdy? If it couldn't be refined into a treasure, it meant that it couldn't be casually shrunk. It couldn't be stored in one's body. If such a big thing was placed in the space, it wouldn't be able to be used as a defense in a life-and-death situation. It would just be a piece of scrap metal.
If one's cultivation was below the Yin Yang Integration Realm, it could be used to show off. However, would any cultivator below the Yin Yang Integration Realm have so many spirit jades? Therefore, Gongsun Xiong had expected this item to go unsold!
Just as he was about to announce that the item had gone unsold, a lazy voice rang out.
"I'll bid 1.1 billion! At this stage, it's still a good choice for defense! "
Zhao Yuande lazily raised his hand, looking as if it was dispensable.
Gongsun Xiong's eyes lit up. He didn't expect this person to make a bid.
"1.5 billion!" Unexpectedly, someone shouted out a bid at this moment. Everyone turned around and saw that it was actually Zhang Xinghui. He wanted to seize the opportunity and give Zhao Yuande a try!
"1.6 billion! I won't take it if it exceeds this price. In any case, I'm about to reach the Yin Yang Integration Realm! " Zhao Yuande glanced at him and anger rose in his heart. This guy came out to cause trouble. If he continued to bid, he would let him have it. He would find a chance to let Zhao Yixin kill it silently and take it back!
Zhang Xinghui looked at Zhao Yuande and saw that the latter's indifferent expression didn't seem to be fake. He immediately gave up on the idea of continuing to bid. Although he was rich, a billion was not a small number. For him to throw away these spirit jades just to vent his anger, wasn't it a bit too childish?
He was a person who could endure and was very restrained. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to become the Palace Master of Star Moon Palace in the future!
Zhang Xinghui remained silent, and no one else made a bid. Zhao Yuande easily obtained the incomplete Heavenly Mirror and casually tossed it into his storage space.
The auction continued, and the next few items were also very valuable. Each of them was a fine item, but they weren't of much use to Zhao Yuande. Moreover, those old men were watching too closely, so the young people couldn't make a move. They could only look at the ocean and sigh.
"Next is the ninth auction item, three Five Spirit Cloudfire Fruits. This kind of spirit medicine is basically useless to the old fellows, so let's give it to the younger generation!" Gong Sun Xiong also couldn't stand these old fellows being too overbearing, so he took the initiative to make this suggestion.
"Enough! This fruit is useless to us, so we won't fight for it! "An old man immediately responded to the call and expressed his attitude.
"Consider it a favor for you, Old Man Gongsun!" The red-faced old man nodded in agreement.
"…"
All of the old men expressed the same attitude. Only now did all of the young people let out long sighs of relief, their eyes instantly shining with a scorching light.
"Five Spirit Cloudfire Fruits. Fruits of the Five-Colored Spirittree. They can increase one's insights into the Laws of Fire. Mid-grade food ingredients. When paired with the recipe 'Heavenscorching Flame', they can increase one's fire-type physique and give one a very high chance of gaining insights into the Laws of Fire. Ingredients list …"
Zhao Yuande was naturally very interested in such a wonderful item. This was one of the five Laws one needed to gain insights into in order to break through to the World level!
"Three Five Spirit Cloudfire Fruits. The starting price is 1.5 billion. Raise the price as you wish!" After Gong Sun Xiong announced the price, many of the juniors below the stage began to breathe heavily.
"I'll bid 1.8 billion!" Someone immediately raised the price by three hundred million.
It must be understood that even the heirs of major clans wouldn't receive more than a hundred million spiritjade from their clans every year. The rest of the spiritjade would come from luck and fortune. This meant that it would take them eighteen years to earn 1.8 billion!
"Two billion!" Someone instantly raised the price.
"2.2 billion!"
"2.5 billion!"
"…"
Bids rang out one after another, quickly pushing the price to four billion. Some of the young masters, young mistresses, and Holy Daughters instantly grew listless. No one would be able to come up with four billion spiritjade unless they were lucky enough!
"4.2 billion!" Zhang Xinghui suddenly raised his hand and called out this astronomical price. He swept the entire audience with his gaze, finally coming to rest on Zhao Yuande's table.
He first grinned at Xue Linglong, then turned to look at Zhao Yuande and raised an eyebrow provocatively.
In his mind, Zhao Yuande had first taken out six hundred million spiritjade to pay for the ship's passage, then spent 1.6 billion to buy a piece of scrap metal. How could he possibly have so much spiritjade left to fight with him over it? This was a blatant show of force!
Zhao Yuande chuckled. He had been planning to make a move all along, but he hadn't expected this kid to cause trouble for him. By the looks of it, if I don't slap you in the face, you'll feel uncomfortable!
"4.2 billion and one high-grade spiritjade!" Zhao Yuande calmly raised his hand and called out a bid!
The surrounding people immediately focused their attention on him. This fellow was clearly going against Zhang Xinghui. Just who was he? Did he have a grudge against Zhang Xinghui?
When everyone saw the several people sitting at the same table, they immediately sucked in a breath of cold air.
Besides this kid who had called out a bid, there were three peerlessly beautiful women at the table, and one of them was even Elder Pan of the Myriad Links Trading Company!
If Elder Pan was personally accompanying them, then just who was this kid?
As they looked down, they immediately understood the cause of this matter. They saw Xue Linglong, the number one beauty of the Wind Thunder Great World, and Zhang Xinghui's fiancée. But now, she was sitting at this table, exchanging flirtatious glances with this kid. There was definitely a big problem here!
No wonder Zhang Xinghui had raised the price of that piece of scrap metal; it turned out that he was angry about this.
This kid's bid was definitely a counterattack to the previous bid!
At this moment, everyone seemed to understand the crux of the matter. They looked at Zhang Xinghui with a strange light in their eyes, as if his head was emitting a green light!
"You … you're sincerely going against me!" Zhang Xinghui directly stood up and looked at Zhao Yuande, his eyes spitting fire. "5 billion! Let's see if you can make trouble for me again! "
The true value of these three fruits was around 4 billion. He had gritted his teeth and shouted out this bid of 5 billion.
"Brother Zhang, don't be angry. I also need these things." Zhao Yuande waved his hand, indicating that the other party shouldn't be angry. He continued, "This is an auction, not a store. We pay attention to the highest bidder. You bid your price, I bid mine. Let's compete fairly! 5 billion and one high-grade spiritjade! "
"You … you …" Zhang Xinghui looked at the other party, his eyes spitting fire. The anger that had been suppressed a moment ago suddenly rushed out, causing him to almost spit out a mouthful of blood. He trembled as he pointed at Zhao Yuande. "You're good! Kid … you're ruthless! "
He wanted to bid 6 billion, but in the end, his rationality overwhelmed his impulse. 6 billion to buy these three fruits was a huge loss! Why would he lose 2 billion just because he was angry?
Everyone looked at Zhang Xinghui and couldn't help but be a little dazed. This guy was really good at enduring and was really rational!
At this time, Xue Linglong was extremely disappointed with Zhang Xinghui. As a man, he couldn't even earn back this little bit of face. He was obviously angry to the point that smoke was coming out of his seven orifices, but he was still calculating the gains and losses. Being with this kind of man would not lead a good life in the future!
Originally, she only hated the marriage that her parents had arranged for her. She didn't hate Zhang Xinghui that much. However, after everything that had happened today, she was completely disappointed!
