Chapter 129: The Auction Is Over
“Everyone, this is something you can do to leave a mark in history. Is there really no one else who wants to own it?”
“Raise the bid! Raise the bid! Raise the bid!”
Those who did not mind the commotion immediately cheered!
“2,000,000 spiritual stones twice!”
“Don’t you want to comprehend your own unique laws from this top-tier cultivation technique and become a top expert in your respective realm?”
Miao Qing deliberately stopped a few seconds before the last bid, to give the VIP room on the second floor another chance to bid!
At this time Bai Wuheng’s face flushed red, and his eyes were wide open as he looked at his son who was counting all the assets beside him.
“How is it? How many spiritual stones do we have left in the entire Bai clan? Don’t bother about those miscellaneous matters. We have to get the Astral God Sword Technique at all costs! Just tell me how many spiritual stones we have right now!”
Looking at his father who was almost at his limit, Bai Yanlang’s heart trembled as he reported, “We have 700,000 spiritual stones right now. All the house and land deeds add up to 1,400,000 spiritual stones.”
“It’s not enough! It’s just that this sum isn’t enough to make the royal auction house give up! We should still have a lot of assets in Lin City that can be sold. Those should still be worth 500,000 spiritual stones.”
“Father! This won’t do! If we take out all those spiritual stones, it will affect our clan’s business. If we don’t do this properly and have an explanation to the other partners, our Bai clan will probably be doomed!”
Seeing the amount that his father was muttering, Bai Yanlang was instantly shocked!
Those 500,000 spiritual stones were the Bai clan’s bottom line. It was like the Bai clan’s last pillar of support!
If the other shops were sold it, then so be it. There was still a chance to earn it back. However, this amount of money was the official capital of the Yanhuang Divine Tide. If something went wrong, the Bai clan would suffer a devastating blow.
No, this time, I need to obtain the Astral God Sword Technique and offer it to the Eighth Prince! That measly 500,000 spiritual stones were just a drop in the ocean!
“2,600,000 spiritual stones!”
Bai Wuheng was like a wild beast that had been forced into a desperate situation. His eyes were bloodshot as he announced the final price.
Beside him was his son who had already collapsed onto the ground.
“2,600,000 spiritual stones! Going once!”
“2,600,000 spiritual stones! Going twice!”
“2,600,000 spiritual stones! Going thrice! Sold!”
…
Unlike before, this time, Miao Qing counted down almost three times in one breath as if he was afraid that someone would go back on their words.
[ Ding! Congratulations to host for successfully auctioning the top seventh-level Astral God Sword Technique! ]
[ Congratulations to host for obtaining 10,000 times the profit! ]
[ Congratulations to host for obtaining a top ninth-level 10,000 Stars Sword Technique! ]
In the VIP room where the royal auction house was located, the expressions of the people in it were a little unsightly at this moment.
“Elder, let’s hurry up and report this matter to the chief officer of the tax and grain department!”
“This price has already exceeded the limit that we can afford. In addition, the news that the Bai clan has obtained a top seventh-level sword manual must also be reported back to the Imperial City as soon as possible.”
Hearing the suggestions of the other elders of the royal auction house, the elder slowly leaned on the sofa and started to ponder.
Five seconds later, the elder suddenly sat up straight and said, “Alright! I’ll report this matter to Lord Sikong Huan today. Let’s go back now.”
Following that, the group of people from the royal auction house left the Lin auction house through the secret door.
As for the auction items, someone else would send them over later.
…
In the VIP room, Bai Wuheng seemed to have reached a climax.
He was like a general who had fought a great battle to turn things around. He excitedly waved his fists and smashed them onto Bai Yanlang who was beside him.
“Did you see that? Son, we’ve succeeded!”
“This time, our Bai clan is really going to turn things around! This is a seventh-level sword manual! It would be a rare sword manual if placed in the Royal Treasury in the Imperial City of the Yanhuang Dynasty!
“If I present it this time, I’ll definitely have a greater role in the Eighth Prince’s heart, and I’ll be able to occupy a more important position.”
“Hahaha.”
…
After the auction, Miao Qing gave a summary of the changes to the rules of the Lin auction house.
Including the date of the auction, it was changed to once every three days.
At the same time, it was open to everyone. The commission for the auction items was even lower. From the previous 10%, it was decreased by half to 50%. As expected, it caused a commotion in the various large clans.
After all, in Lin City, the rules of the various large auction houses were to take a 20% commission. Now, the Lin auction house only wanted a quarter of the other auction houses?
They could not help but be pleasantly surprised!
Just as the people who had come to the auction house left the venue unsatisfied, Lin Mo was already sitting in the training room, grinning from ear to ear. He had really made a lot of money from this auction!
If all the auction items were sold at a high price, the system’s reward would be even higher! After each auction, he would obtain some treasures!
Mid sixth-level Spirit Condensing Pill, mid sixth-level Slaughter Lance, low seventh-level Shattered Star Hammer Technique, top sixth-level Empty Treasure Chest, top seventh-level Pure and Exquisite Divine Art, top sixth-level Gale God’s Breath Slash, top seventh-level Spirit Barrier Pill, low sixth-level Golden-spot Saber-toothed Tiger, low ninth-level Plain-clothed Snow White, and top ninth-level 10,000 Stars Sword Technique!
In addition to the items he had previously auctioned off, the current price increase was already extremely generous!
Furthermore, he had a faint feeling in his heart that he would probably leave Lin City in a few days. When that time came, the strength of the enemies he would encounter would far surpass his current strength!
Therefore, after the auction ended, Lin Mo had already made up his mind. In the future, the auction that he would personally pay attention to would be of the highest level!
Therefore, this time, he was prepared to absorb all the life force within his ring!
The God Devouring Body was the ultimate foundation of all his strength. This was something that Lin Mo had never forgotten!
All the weapons were left with only the top level ones, followed by cultivation techniques. He planned to devour all the other pills and weapons!
