“Pavilion Master Tang, you’ve said so much, but you haven’t said how much the starting price is.”
Below the stage, a man reminded with a smile.
As soon as these words were said, the people present began to whisper to each other, and one after another, they began to guess the starting price of this spirit tool.
As everyone knew, all the items that could be auctioned in the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion’s auction venue, whether it was cultivation methods, spirit skills, panaceas, and so on, were all priced slightly higher than the prices of other Chambers of Commerce. However, while the prices were high, they also had absolute control and guarantee over the quality.
In general, there was a reason why it was expensive, and it had to be trustworthy. This was also the main reason why the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion was able to stand out among the numerous chambers of commerce and secure its position as the number one Chamber of Commerce for many years.
“The starting price for this Whale Bone Shield is… 300,000 high-grade spirit stones, and each increment must not be less than 10,000 spirit stones.”
Looking at the eager crowd below the stage, Tang Conglin extended three fingers and waved them. However, this price caused a wave of exclamations from the crowd.
300,000 high-grade spirit stones for an earth-grade intermediate-tier defensive spirit tool. If what Tang Conglin said earlier was true, a spirit tool that could withstand the full-force attack of a mid-stage or late-stage Saint cultivator, this price seemed to be a little too low.
Even Gu Xi, who was below the stage, could not help but feel a little surprised by this price. Tong Shan, on the other hand, had a calm expression on his face, as if he had long known about this price.
“I bid 350,000!”
“360,000!”
“400,000!”
“Don’t fight with me, 420,000!”
As Tang Conglin announced the starting price of the Whale Bone Shield, the atmosphere in the venue immediately became lively. The people below the stage began to raise the price one after another, as if they would not stop until they got their hands on the item.
Meanwhile, Gu Xi was still sitting in his seat as if nothing had happened. Although he had 100 million high-grade spirit stones that he had extorted from the hall of flowing light, he had no intention of buying the first item.
Although an earth-grade spirit tool was not of a low rank. He had the Immeasurable Bell, a heaven-grade spirit weapon, so he had no interest in these items. Although the Immeasurable Bell had been broken during the battle with the Void Devouring Beast, it was not impossible for it to be repaired.
“It seems that I have to find an opportunity to ask the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion to help me repair the Immeasurable Bell. Otherwise, it wouldn’t be a problem if I don’t have a defensive spirit tool on me.”
Gu Xi quietly listened to everyone’s bids as he pondered in his heart.
Although he had his own selfish motives in participating in this Grand Sect Competition through the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion, if he could help the Ten Thousand Treasure Pavilion obtain a good result, or even the first place… Then repairing a spirit tool would be a reasonable request, right?
At the same time, the atmosphere in the arena became increasingly heated. The price of the Whale Bone Shield had already been raised by everyone to 3.8 million high-grade spirit stones.
The price of 3.8 million high-grade spirit stones for an earth-grade spirit tool was a little high, even in the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion. However, to be able to reach such an astonishing price, one of the reasons was due to the Grand Sect Competition.
“As expected of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion, it can sell whatever it wants whenever it wants.”
Seeing that the Whale Bone Shield on the stage was finally sold for 3.8 million high-grade spirit stones, Gu Xi could not help but sigh emotionally.
Tong Shan smiled slightly, but did not respond.
He sold whatever the customers wanted, which was the main point of doing business.
The next items on the auction floor were mostly high-grade spirit skills and spirit weapons, but none of them attracted Gu Xi’s interest.
On the contrary, Zhan Hong and his people from the Zhan Clan won a spirit skill. Due to the Zhan Clan’s influence, few people dared to compete with them.
“The next item is a spirit array formation.”
On the stage, Tang Conglin looked around the crowd and pulled down the gray cloth on the cart with a smile, showing the items below. He continued to introduce, “This array formation is called the Double Lotus Spirit Slaughtering Array. It is said that if you can understand this array, its power can even be comparable to a high-tier earth-grade array.”
“The starting bid is three million high-grade spirit stones. Each increment must be no less than 100,000 spirit stones.”
“Everyone, please go ahead.” Tang Conglin chuckled and waited for everyone to bid.
“An earth-grade intermediate-tier spirit array is very difficult for an ordinary spirit array master to Master!”
“There’s already a lack of spirit array masters in this world. Our Kongtong Sect has a few outstanding spirit array masters, but if even we can’t master these array formations, then it would be a huge waste…”
For a time, the people below the stage discussed animatedly, but no one raised the price.
Just as they had said, the number of spirit array masters on the Eastern Continent could be said to be relatively few, even fewer than alchemists. And the main reason for all this was that spirit arrays were really too difficult to learn.
Even if a person had some talent in spirit arrays, he could not learn every spirit array that appeared in front of him.
Although it was the same for spirit skills, there were too many cultivators. If one person could not learn it, then naturally others would come to learn it. However, there were only a few spirit array masters in a sect. If they could not learn it, then millions of high-level spirit stones would be wasted.
“3.2 million.” Just when no one was bidding, Gu Xi finally chose to open his mouth.
Following his bid, everyone could not help but cast their gazes over, wanting to see who was so rich and brave.
Tang Conglin and Tong Shan were also a little surprised by this. However, since Gu Xi was interested in this array, as long as the competition was fair according to the rules, they naturally had no reason to stop him from bidding.
“It’s Gu Lan. But isn’t he a disciple of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion?”
Soon, someone recognized Gu Xi’s identity. After all, Gu Xi’s performance in the Grand Sect Competition was too shocking.
He single-handedly defeated a first-rate force like the Ancient Sect. Although the reason for the elimination was that the Ancient Sect had violated the rules of the grand competition, the audience could not forget the grace of killing an enemy in one blow.
“You don’t know about this. The Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion has a clear rule. Even if a disciple of the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion takes a fancy to an item in the sect, he or she must buy it at the same price as the outside world. Even if the Ten Thousand Treasures Pavilion would benefit from this, the price of the item itself is still a drop in the ocean.”
The doubts of that person were quickly quelled by the others.
“3.5 million! That thing is mine!”
