Piaomiao City is too big, full of green trees, and has a very large population, possibly hundreds of millions. There are countless airships in it, flying in and out of the sky, and there are also many vehicles on the ground.
As for pedestrians, they are densely packed, and everyone seems to be in a hurry, busy in this metropolis.
Fortunately, Wang Baole's sound transmission ring had map and positioning functions, and he had enough time, so he rushed towards the auction house according to the directions.
The journey felt like a tour. Wang Baole looked at the buildings and shops on the left and right, feeling that the atmosphere here was obviously different from his hometown of Phoenix City. Although there was nothing new and surprising, there were still many things to look at.
For example, he was looking at a building not far away, clicking his tongue.
From a simple perspective, this building looks like an ancient Roman arena, but it is as huge as dozens of football fields. If you look at it from the sky, the entire building is like a huge fist!
The top of it was even more hollow, and bursts of roaring sounds could be heard, as if many fights were going on inside.
"Is this the legendary fight club where you can fight freely?" Wang Baole took a few more glances. He had seen introductions to this place in the news before, especially looking at the door of the club where many people wearing clothes were standing there. Each of the big men in black uniforms was actually a Qi and Blood Realm powerhouse. Standing there, they were very intimidating.
"I'm going to the auction house today. Next time I come here, I'd better go in and have a look." Although Wang Baole usually seems a little mature, he is still a young man after all, and he is still very touched by this kind of passionate fighting. Interested.
With expectation, Wang Baole took a few more glances before leaving, watching all the way, and finally arrived at his destination at noon... Yunying Auction House!
As one of the four major auction houses in Piaomiao City, the Yunying Club is not as grand as the Piaomiao Auction House, but it is still very spectacular. From a distance, it looks like an eagle spreading its wings, standing more than thirty miles north of Piaomiao City. Inside.
It is surrounded by high walls and there are many guards. The interior of the auction house is even more luxurious, enough to support more than ten auctions involving ten thousand people at the same time.
Especially the large venue in the middle is the signature place of Cloud Eagle Club. Any auction there will cause a huge sensation in Piao Miao City.
As for the auction that will be held this time, it is not qualified to be held in the main venue, but will be held in the No. 3 auction house on the right wing. Wang Baole did not have an invitation, but he had already inquired about the rules, and relied on his misty eyes on the spirit net in advance. As a specially recruited student from the Taoist Academy, I reserved a seat.
At this moment, holding the jade identity card, Wang Baole entered the club smoothly under the inspection of the guard at the door. He came earlier, and there were not many people here. Under the guidance of the beautiful service sister, Wang Baole walked into No. 3 Inside the auction house.
Although it is only the No. 3 auction house, it can accommodate tens of thousands of people sitting at the same time. Each seat is semi-independent. Not only is the seat comfortable, but ice water and snacks are also provided. Sitting there, you can see your surroundings clearly. You can also see a high platform directly ahead.
"This place is too luxurious." Wang Baole drank ice spirit water and ate snacks, feeling that the admission fee of one spirit stone was worth it.
While I was happily enjoying the treatment here, more and more people gradually arrived, and the auction house gradually became lively. Many people knew each other, sat together, and were all laughing and chatting.
There were also many students from Piaomiao Taoist Academy who came in groups, but there were mostly old students. There were occasionally new students, and most of them were curious and excited, and they were talking a lot.
Even among these people, Wang Baole, who was drinking ice spirit water, saw Zhuo Yifan, and Zhuo Yifan also noticed Wang Baole, and his smiling face suddenly became slightly colder.
It was true that he had been hit too hard by Wang Baole before, and when he saw Wang Baole now, he was extremely displeased. He snorted and turned his head, chatting with some new old students around him.
"What a bullshit." Wang Baole also snorted, drank the ice spirit water in his hand, and opened the second bottle. After this long wait, when the number of people in the auction house was almost the same, a burst of exciting music suddenly echoed. As everyone in the entire venue fell silent, a bright light appeared on the high platform in front.
Under that light, a well-dressed middle-aged man slowly walked out with a smile on his face and bowed to the audience.
"Everyone, welcome to the Yunying Club. I, Li Jingtao, will preside over this auction. Well, without further ado, the auction begins now!" The middle-aged man's voice was loud. After it spread around, he waved his right hand and immediately An illusory picture appeared behind him. In the picture, there was a huge bone.
The bones were all purple, emitting bright light, and even more sinister intent radiated through the illusory picture, which shocked many people.
"Thunderbirds that live in thunderstorms are extremely ferocious. When they reach adulthood, a thunder bone will appear in their bodies. This bone will be of great benefit whether it is for refining elixirs, refining magical weapons, or practicing as a warrior. "
"Although this thunder bone is just an ordinary adult thunderbird, it is quite difficult to obtain. The price is... twenty spirit stones!"
Following the middle-aged man's words, there was a brief silence in the auction house. Wang Baole also opened his eyes wide. Although he knew about the battle between ferocious beasts and knew how powerful the ferocious beasts were, this was the first time he saw the thunder bones of the thunderbird. He couldn't help but feel... Take a few more glances.
Soon, the bidding came out, and in the end, to Wang Baole's surprise, the thunder bone reached a height of sixty spirit stones.
"So valuable!" Wang Baole touched the small bag he was carrying, and his confidence suddenly weakened. However, thinking that his purity reached 75%, he gained confidence again. After all, the spiritual stones here are all based on 50%. The settlement is based on purity. Every 10% increase in purity will double the value.
As time went by, one item after another appeared illusoryly. Under the continuous auctions, although there were some unsold auctions, most of them were bought by others. Wang Baole also opened his eyes. In addition to all kinds of evil things, In addition to the beast materials, there are also pills, magic weapons, and even exercises, but most of them are incomplete.
There were a few times when Wang Baole was moved, but he held back and waited for the Qingqing Pill to appear.
Finally, halfway through the auction, the auctioneer on the high platform smiled slightly and waved his hand, and a... milky white pill appeared behind him!
This elixir is not crystal clear, but one glance at it makes people want to eat it, as if it is an instinctive desire of the body.
As soon as this elixir came out, the auction house was filled with the fragrance of the medicine, which immediately lifted the spirits of many people, especially Zhuo Yifan and some old students, their eyes suddenly brightened.
Wang Baole also sat up straight, his heart beating faster and his eyes fixed.
"I won't introduce you to the Huaqing Pill. I think there are many friends here just for this pill. The price is... one hundred spiritual stones!"
"One hundred ten!"
"One hundred twenty!"
"One hundred and three!" In an instant, various calls for bids came and went in the auction house, and Zhuo Yifan even opened his mouth, indicating that he was bound to win.
"I'll give you one hundred and fifty spirit stones!"
Wang Baole suddenly became anxious and spoke loudly.
"One hundred and sixty spirit stones!"
"One hundred and seventy!" Zhuo Yifan frowned slightly and snorted.
"One hundred and eighty!" Wang Baole did not hesitate and raised the price again. Soon, everyone else in the entire auction house gradually gave up. Only Wang Baole and Zhuo Yifan continued to speak. The price had increased from The previous one hundred plus has been raised to over five hundred.
At such a price, even if the Huaqing Pill was already good, it was still a bit overpriced. Everyone couldn't help but look at each other and looked at Wang Baole and Zhuo Yifan, who were both blushing at this moment.
"Wang Baole, you dare to compete with me for spiritual stones? My family has a lot of money, I will pay you seven hundred!" Zhuo Yifan gritted his teeth, stood up and spoke angrily. He felt that he was a child of a noble family and had no shortage of spiritual stones, and because of the previous Wang Baole didn't like the matter of running and weightlifting, but he also needed the Qingqing Pill, so he got mad and quoted an astonishing price.
"Your sister!!" Wang Baole's breathing became heavier. Even if he had accumulated a lot of spiritual stones during this period, if converted into 50% purity, it would only be about a thousand. Now he stood up and glared at Zhuo Yifan. Then, he yelled.
"A thousand spirit stones!"
As soon as the price came out, there was a moment of silence and then a lot of noise. Everyone felt that the price was too exaggerated.
Zhuo Yifan was also shocked, his neck became thicker, and he roared again. He was originally from the martial arts system, but now he was only a hair away from replenishing his pulse, and his voice was loud in excitement.
"One thousand one hundred spirit stones!"
Wang Baole stared, his ears hurt from the shock, so he took out a large speaker from his bag and shouted at Zhuo Yifan.
"Fifteen hundred spirit stones!"
The sound was so loud that not only Zhuo Yifan was startled, but everyone around him took a breath. Even the host of the auction house swayed and looked at Wang Baole with a strange expression.
If this was all, it was just Wang Baole's loud voice. But after he finished shouting, before everyone could react, he actually took out a blank spiritual stone in front of everyone and in full view of everyone. In his hand, he started refining the spirit stone directly!
As a large amount of spiritual energy condensed, the blank stone in his hand changed rapidly, and it was visible to the naked eye that it was turning into a spiritual stone. This scene was a huge blow to everyone at the auction!
"Comparing with me about spirit stones? Your sister, I will make them on the spot. Come on, let's compete with each other to see who has more!" Wang Baole shouted angrily, glaring at the dumbfounded Zhuo Yifan with disdain in his eyes.
"He...he actually practiced on the spot?"
"I remembered, he is from the magic weapon department..."
"How can this compare..." When everyone was smiling bitterly, Zhuo Yifan was also going crazy. He never dreamed that such a thing could be done at the auction. Although he knew that the Magical Weapon Spirit Refining Stone was powerful, but on weekdays, There is no such strong contrast in the scene, and he still doesn't feel it very clearly.
But at this moment... Wang Baole's actions were like a critical blow to him. Although his family was rich, he also felt guilty. After all, he had a lot of spiritual stones, but the other party... Damn, he was simply printing money by himself! !
This feeling, just like running and weightlifting before, made Zhuo Yifan's body tremble. At this moment, the old student he had just met next to him looked at Zhuo Yifan sympathetically, shook his head and sighed.
"This is the magic weapon system."
"You actually went to fight with him... Didn't you see that our old students didn't speak up after noticing him? The Magical Weapon Department is known as a walking money printing machine. No one can compare!" When other old students heard this, they also Sadly, it is obvious that in the heart of every old student, there is a pain point that has been deeply hurt by people from the magic weapon system. ���
I wish all students good luck in the college entrance examination!
