Finally, with the sound of a bell, the bidding time was up. All the bidders called out their bids according to what they could afford …
Chu Xingyun looked around blankly. He knew that at this moment … the prices had already been set. It was clear who was higher and who was lower.
Unfortunately, the first nine rounds of the auction were all regular auctions. The prices would not be announced. Only by going to the Jubao Pavilion would one know how much one's treasures had been sold for.
Only after the ninth round of the auction would the final three treasures be auctioned on the spot. The prices would also be known immediately.
Hahaha …
Frowning, Chu Xingyun was about to turn and leave. Just as he was about to head to the Jubao Pavilion's main hall, a familiar and loud laughter rang out.
Amidst the loud laughter, the fat white pig demon stood there with his eyes shining. He held a green bamboo tube in his huge hand and laughed happily.
Plop …
The fat white pig demon lifted the cover of the bamboo tube and poured the tea leaves into his mouth. After chewing for a while, he swallowed them down with a gulp.
Clap clap clap …
Patting his belly in satisfaction, the fat white pig laughed heartily and said, "Mom and Dad … you don't have to worry about my studies anymore. No one can call me an idiot anymore!"
Uh …
Chu Xingyun couldn't help but be speechless while looking at the white and fat pig demon. It was a pity that the Dao Comprehending Tea fell into his hands. However, there was nothing he could do about it. Who asked him to have such a good father and a lot of money?
He just didn't know how much this fat boy with two million in his pockets had spent to buy this tube of tea leaves.
Just as Chu Xingyun was guessing, an extremely muscular figure with fangs in his mouth walked in quickly.
Walking all the way to the white fat pig demon, the ferocious fanged pig demon opened its mouth and said, "How is it? I asked you to buy the ancient tablet, did you buy it?"
Faced with the question, the fat white pig demon shook his head and said, "No, I didn't pay attention and it was bought by someone else. However, it doesn't matter. I bought an even better treasure!"
A better treasure?
Scratching his head, the fanged boar demon said, "What kind of treasures can you buy here? You're not spending money recklessly again, are you?"
Shaking his head, the fat white boar demon said, "No, no … it's definitely not this time. I bought Dao Comprehension Tea. It's said that … it can allow a low-intelligence creature to instantly gain medium-intelligence."
What?! How could there be such a treasure?
When he heard the fat white boar demon, the Tusked Boar demon clearly didn't believe him, and he said, "Then what about the Dao Comprehension Tea? Hasn't it been delivered yet? "
Chuckling, the fat man pointed to his mouth and said, "It's already been delivered. I've already eaten it."
The Tusked Boar Demon shrugged helplessly and said, "Alright, I'll buy it then. It's just a tube of tea anyway. It won't cost much. Come … give me the rest of the money. I'm going to participate in the finale auction later."
The rest of the money?
The fat white boar demon couldn't help but be taken aback when he heard the Fanged Boar Demon's words. He then said, "When I was auctioning off the ancient tablet, I was robbed because my bid was too low. Therefore, when I was buying the tea leaves, I directly threw in two million. As expected … no one can beat me …"
Pfft …
As soon as the fat white boar demon finished speaking, the Tusked Boar Demon spat out a mouthful of blood.
Two million Spirit Bones. That was half of his life's savings.
Originally, he had planned to buy the ancient tablet and bring his team to explore some barren poisonous planets.
As long as he could buy the ancient tablet, it didn't matter even if he had to spend a little more money. After all … with the ancient tablet, he could earn it back. It was just a matter of time.
One had to know … although there were billions of planets in the Starry Sea, most of the planets had already been explored.
However, the vast majority of the stars had already been scoured by waves of explorers, and all the treasures that could be found had been dug out.
Only those planets that were filled with poisonous miasma, thunderbolts, and hurricanes survived because of their dangerous environment.
Therefore, as long as he bought the ancient tablet, he could explore those poisonous planets. As long as his luck wasn't too bad, he could easily find some treasures that could cover the price of the ancient tablet.
But now, the savings that he had accumulated for half of his life and thousands of years in the Starry Sea had been used by his precious son to buy a tube of tea leaves!
Seeing his father spit out blood, the fat white boar demon instantly panicked. By now, he also knew that he had done something wrong.
Looking at his father anxiously, the fat white boar demon said, "Father … don't be angry. Although the tea leaves are a little expensive, as long as my intelligence can be raised to …"
Slap!
With a crisp slap, the Tusked Boar Demon slapped the fat white boar to the ground and said angrily, "Don't call me father. You are my father! I don't have a son like you … "
After saying that, the Tusked Boar Demon turned and left. The fat white boar demon chased after him and left quickly.
Chu Xingyun smiled bitterly and shook his head. If it was possible, he would rather return the money to the other party.
But the problem now was that the Enlightenment tea had been eaten by the fat white boar demon. He could return the money, but not the Enlightenment tea.
Moreover, no one really knew the value of the Enlightenment tea.
Although two million was a high price, Chu Xingyun did not think that it was not worth it. If he could really subdue a star beast, 20 million or even 200 million would be worth it, let alone two million.
As for the fat white boar demon swallowing the tea, that was like casting pearls before swine. But he could not say that the Enlightenment tea was worthless.
While he was deep in thought, the ninth round of the auction ended.
Chu Xingyun was so focused on thinking that he did not even know what the ninth round of the auction was about.
But in fact, before today's auction, Chu Xingyun had already seen all the auction items in the exhibition hall.
Other than a few treasures like the Enlightenment tea that had been added at the last minute and the three mysterious treasures that were the finale, Chu Xingyun had seen everything that should be seen.
Soon, all three thousand crystal display cases sank into the ground one after another. Next … the auction entered the final segment. The three mysterious treasures were about to appear on the stage!
As the last round of the auction began, 20 to 30 figures with five-colored halos appeared in the air.
According to the rules of the Jubao Pavilion, apart from the powerhouses of the Emperor Ranking, Imperial Ranking, and Monarch Ranking, no one was allowed to fly in the air.
Obviously, these twenty to thirty figures floating in midair were from the ancient path of stars. They were experts from the three rankings, and the reason they had come here was purely to pick up scraps!
However, the fact that they were emitting five-colored halos meant that they were powerhouses of the Monarch Ranking.
