"The ninth auction item is a set of the human-level advanced martial arts Deadwood Palm. The starting price is fifty thousand taels of silver, and the bid will increase by five thousand taels each time. Please bid."
Wu Chen had no interest in martial arts secrets. The levels of these martial arts were too low and he simply looked down upon them, let alone buy them.
After that, Wu Chen did not make any more moves and just acted as a spectator. As for Milan, she made one move and spent 180,000 taels of silver to buy a string of jade beads. This string of jade beads was very beautiful and contained spiritual energy. If worn often, it could relax the muscles and tendons, cure diseases and relieve pain. She liked it very much and bought it.
As for Mu Youxue, she never spent any money. I don’t know whether she looked down on these things or she valued money, but in any case, she didn’t spend any money.
Soon, the first round of auction came to an end.
"Time flies, and the first round of auctions is over."
"The first round of auctions is just a small show, the real fun is yet to come."
"That's for sure. In ten minutes, the second round of auction will begin. The items in the second round of auction will be the truly valuable good things."
"Yeah, it makes me excited just thinking about it."
After a ten-minute break, the auction continued.
"The first auction item of the second round is a Thunder Spirit Pearl."
He Yafang held a crystal clear bead in her hand. There were countless tiny sparkles on this thunder spirit bead, as if lightning was condensed in it, giving people a sense of power.
"Thunder Spirit Pearl?"
Looking at this magical bead, Wu Chen was quite interested. Once, he saw a fire spirit bead in the first auction house in Tianhua City, and then he saw a water spirit bead in the Demon Cloud Mountains, and now he saw a thunder spirit bead here.
The Thunder Spirit Pearl is a spirit pearl with thunder attribute. It contains pure thunder aura. If it is obtained by a person who practices thunder attribute skills, it can be absorbed and refined to enhance cultivation and increase strength.
Although Wu Chen is not practicing thunder-attributed techniques, this Thunder Spirit Pearl has other wonderful uses. If used well, it may have some unexpected effects.
"Thunder Spirit Pearl, I didn't expect there would be such a good thing."
"This thing is good, but it is not very helpful for people like us who practice fire-attributed techniques."
"Yes, this thing is only useful to those who practice lightning-attributed techniques."
"I wonder if there is a Fire Spirit Pearl. If there is, I will buy one even if I have to sell everything I have."
"If there is a golden spirit bead, I will buy one no matter what."
Many people were greatly disappointed because the attributes of the skills they practiced were not right, so the Thunder Spirit Pearl was just a waste to them and had no effect at all.
However, the eyes of those who were practicing thunder-attributed skills on the scene lit up. They stared at the Thunder Spirit Pearl without blinking, wishing they could rush over immediately, snatch the Thunder Spirit Pearl and keep it for themselves.
Thunder is the most common force in nature, but the form of this force in nature is too overbearing. It is basically heavenly thunder, and heavenly thunder is the most destructive thing in the world. One strike is enough to shatter everything and destroy everything. No one dares to touch it.
Therefore, although these people practiced thunder-attributed techniques, they could not find anything that could effectively promote the progress of their techniques. Now that they finally found a thunder spirit bead, they naturally could not let it go.
"Thunder Spirit Pearl, starting price, 100,000 taels of silver, each bid must be no less than 10,000 taels, please bid."
As soon as He Yafang finished speaking, someone immediately started bidding: "One hundred thousand taels."
"One hundred and one hundred thousand taels."
"Two hundred thousand taels of silver."
This price made many people confused. Who is this person? He raised the price so drastically, increasing it to 90,000 at once. It was obvious that he was determined to get it.
"Room No. 25, who went in?"
"Just now I saw that it seemed that Wang Yao went in."
"Wang Yao, are you talking about Wang Yao, the son of the patriarch of the Wang family of the Yuntong Dynasty?"
"Yes, that's him."
"Haha, it turns out to be him. No wonder he is so rich and generous. He added 90,000 taels of silver all at once."
"This Wang Yao has been stuck in the eighth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm for a long time. He has always wanted to break through to the ninth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm, but he has never been able to do so. I guess he took this Thunder Spirit Pearl just to break through to the ninth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm."
"Very likely."
In the private room No. 25, Wang Yao looked at the Thunder Spirit Pearl on the auction table with an extremely fiery look in his eyes. This Thunder Spirit Pearl was an extremely good thing. If he could get it and absorb and refine it, he would be able to break through the ninth level of the Spiritual Sea Realm.
Wang Yao's sudden increase in price scared some people who wanted to increase the price but had no time to do so. In terms of strength and status, they could not compare with Wang Yao. The Wang family to which Wang Yao belonged was one of the wealthy families in the Yuntong Dynasty, a medium-sized country. They were extremely powerful and ordinary people did not dare to provoke them.
However, there are still some people who are not afraid of Wang Yao's power and continue to raise the price.
"Two hundred and ten thousand."
The sudden sound startled everyone and they looked towards Room 49.
"Room No. 49, who went in?"
"Just now I saw that it seemed that someone from the Great Qi State went in."
"The Great Qi State, isn't that a small country? How dare someone from a small country challenge someone from a medium-sized country? That's really too bold."
"I have someone to back me up, that's for sure."
"Someone is backing me up. Who is that?"
"A powerful character has appeared in the Great Qi Kingdom this time. His strength is so strong that even Zhao Chonglou is no match for him."
"Zhao Chonglou is not his opponent, are you talking about the man named Wu Chen?"
"Yes, that's him."
"It turned out to be him, no wonder."
The person who made the move was naturally Lei Peng, because he was Lei Xiu, and the significance of the Thunder Spirit Pearl to him was naturally extraordinary.
"Lei Peng took action."
Wu Chen smiled faintly, since Lei Peng had taken action, there was no need for him to take action. This thing was much more useful to Lei Peng than to him, because he did not specialize in thunder-attributed exercises, and the Thunder Spirit Pearl might not be useful to him.
"Brother Yao, this man is your rival."
In private room No. 25, Wang Yao's face darkened. He didn't expect that after he made his first bid, there were still people who continued to bid higher. This showed that they simply didn't take him seriously.
"Two hundred and thirty thousand taels of silver."
Lei Peng immediately raised the price without any hesitation: "Two hundred and fifty thousand taels."
"Two hundred and sixty thousand."
"Two hundred and seventy thousand."
Lei Peng did not give in at all.
"Three hundred thousand taels."
