Three days later, the auction held by Radiant City and the Zi Family officially commenced.
The venue for the auction was not located in the most bustling area as expected, but rather in a picturesque spot by the mountains and water. This place usually appeared quite desolate, with few people visiting, but now, due to the auction, it had suddenly become lively.
The Purple Auction House is the largest auction house in the Sword Kingdom, where not only are there numerous rare treasures, but no one dares to cause trouble here, ensuring the safety of those who come to buy.
This auction was somewhat different from previous ones; its scale was unprecedentedly grand, with many items being top-tier within the entire Eastern Region.
"The number of participants at the Purple Auction House this time is several times more than usual!"
"Of course! There are Earth-Level Martial Arts and Earth Grade Divine Weapons, along with pills that can help Soul Realm Experts break through to Yang Spirit Realm. Even those from the Soul Refinement Realm will be drawn in; people from Yang Spirit Realm will flock here."
"Hey, Earth Grade Divine Weapon? It is said that a person at Soul Realm Pinnacle wielding an Earth Grade Divine Weapon can battle against Yang Spirit Realm experts without defeat. Whoever obtains that Earth Grade Divine Weapon this time will truly have no regrets about coming here!"
Those entering the auction house whispered among themselves.
Divine Weapons are generally categorized into common items, Human Rank, Earth-Level, Divine Rank, and Spirit Level.
In the entire Eastern Region, Earth Grade Divine Weapons are extremely rare. Even within the Sun Kingdom, the largest nation in the Eastern Region, there are only a handful of Earth Grade Divine Weapons. The Sword Kingdom is even weaker than the Sun Kingdom, making Earth Grade Divine Weapons even scarcer here.
As for High-Level Divine Weapons above Earth-Level, aside from the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword that has been refined by the Sword Sect for hundreds of years, there have been no reports of other places in the Eastern Region having High-Level Divine Weapons.
Of course, during ancient times, the Eastern Region was also very powerful and not inferior to other regions. At that time, those at Soul Refinement Realm and Yang Spirit Realm were merely pawns and could not be considered strong. Only those who reached Gaze of Fate could barely be called strong. However, for some unknown reason, the Eastern Region suddenly fell into decline.
Over countless years, the strongest individuals in the Eastern Region have only reached the Gaze of Fate, which is nothing compared to the prosperity of Ancient Times.
"Will there really be an Earth Grade Divine Weapon appearing this time?" Although Xing Chen already knew that an Earth Grade Divine Weapon would be at the auction, he still found it hard to believe.
"Not only will there be an Earth Grade Divine Weapon, but Earth-Level Martial Arts as well. The final highlight of this auction will be the Inheritance of a powerful individual from Ancient Times who reached the peak realm of Gaze of Fate. If we can obtain the map to this Inheritance, then in the future, the person who acquires it will likely break through to Gaze of Fate."
Lin Fei's face was filled with excitement and longing.
An auction of this level is something even he, as the young master of the Lin family, rarely gets to see. After all, the specifications for this auction are incredibly high; it may never happen again!
After hearing Lin Fei's words, Xing Chen's previously calm heart began to ripple with excitement.
Yun Qing had once rapidly advanced to her current status because she obtained an Inheritance from a powerful individual known as Thunder True Monarch. If he could also acquire a powerful person's Inheritance...
"This auction has a limit due to the large number of participants. Anyone wishing to enter must first pay a deposit of one hundred thousand Yuan Stones."
Looking at a few receptionists near the entrance, Lin Fei said slowly beside Xing Chen.
One hundred thousand? Even with Xing Chen's typically indifferent personality, he couldn't help but feel frustrated upon hearing this.
Of course, the Zhi Family had no choice but to implement this measure; there were simply too many people attending. If they didn't impose some restrictions and filter out those who only wanted to watch, the entire auction venue would likely be overcrowded.
"Young Master Lin, please this way..."
After Xing Chen and Lin Fei paid their Yuan Stones, a receptionist immediately approached them with a smile and welcomed them inside.
Lin Fei is the eldest son of the Lin family, and in Radiant City, everyone knows him. Therefore, the receptionist directly led the two of them to the VIP Room.
The VIP Room is elevated and not only offers great privacy, but also ensures that people in the main hall cannot see who is inside, greatly guaranteeing the safety of those within the VIP Room.
There are not many VIP Rooms in the auction house, only a few dozen, meaning that out of thousands of people, only a handful can enter the VIP Room.
As time passed, more and more people arrived at the auction.
Some individuals in the VIP Room left their doors wide open, showing no fear of exposing their identities, while others who preferred to be discreet or did not want their identities revealed kept their doors tightly shut, observing the outside through the windows.
"Look... even members of the royal family have come, and it's the prince himself bringing people along."
"Hehe, with such precious items being auctioned at the Purple Auction House this time, it's no surprise that the royal family couldn't resist the temptation."
"The people from Guangyang Prefecture are in VIP Room No. 1; I didn't expect them to come as well."
"Guangyang Prefecture? It's a pity that no one from the Sword Sect came; otherwise, it would have been quite a show."
Before the auction even began, people in the venue were already discussing among themselves.
This auction has undoubtedly attracted all top forces from Sword Kingdom. Except for the Sword Sect, which couldn't spare anyone due to being at a critical stage of refining the Purple Extreme Thunder Sword, other forces have sent at least some representatives.
About fifteen minutes later, the auction officially began.
On the auction stage stood a White-Robed Elder at Soul Realm Pinnacle, accompanied by two stunning young women holding trays.
"Thank you all for your patience, the auction is about to begin..."
The White-Robed Elder said with a smile, his voice warm and friendly.
As the elder's words fell, a young girl behind him took out a purple Thunderstone surrounded by lightning, and an intense aura immediately filled the air.
The Thunderstone, having been struck by lightning for many years, absorbed countless essences of thunder. For those practicing thunder attribute Martial Arts, it holds immense allure.
"This Thunderstone comes from the peak of Nine Heavens Cloud Mountain. It is an invaluable treasure for those training in thunder attribute Martial Arts or body refinement. Most importantly, it has a certain chance to help one break through a Bottleneck," the White-Robed Elder introduced.
Most people present were aware of the Thunderstone's effects, so upon seeing it for the first time, those who practiced thunder attribute Martial Arts or body refinement had their eyes gleaming with excitement.
"This Thunderstone is indeed a good item. If I obtain it, my Ninefold Thunder Palm might very well break through to the Fourfold Thunder level. However, at this moment, this item is not what I desire the most," Xing Chen thought, his gaze flickering as he decisively gave up on bidding for the Thunderstone.
"I believe everyone is already clear about the effects and functions of the Thunderstone. The starting price is One Hundred Thousand Yuan Stone, with each subsequent bid not less than one thousand Yuan Stones," the elder in the robe said with a smile. As soon as he finished speaking, people below began to compete frantically.
"I bid ten One Hundred Thousand Yuan Stones."
"One hundred fifty thousand."
"One hundred seventy thousand."
"One hundred eighty thousand."
The bidding voices rose and fell, and the price of this Thunderstone quickly soared above two hundred One Hundred Thousand Yuan Stones. Xing Chen watched from the VIP Room and couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. Fortunately, he had consigned two Earth-Level Martial Arts; otherwise, he would only be able to watch the excitement from here.
The last Thunderstone was sold for a high price of two hundred eighty thousand, acquired by a family of considerable influence.
Subsequently, several auction items were rare treasures similar to the Thunderstone and materials for refining weapons, each item valued no less than the Thunderstone.
"Hehe, the next item to be auctioned is an Earth-Level Primary Martial Technique, which is one of the top Martial Arts of the Bai Family from Radiant City Three Great Families, called Howling Fist," the White-Clad Elder chuckled.
The words of the White-Clad Elder instantly stirred up a wave of excitement in the auction hall.
Everyone present knew that family forces strictly guarded their own family's Martial Arts. They absolutely would not allow their family’s Martial Arts to spread outside. It was unexpected that the Purple Auction House had actually obtained one of the top Martial Arts from the Bai Family, namely Howling Fist.
"I didn't expect it would be time for my consigned Martial Arts to appear so soon. I really wonder what price it will sell for in the end!" Xing Chen said with great interest as he looked outside the auction venue.
At the same moment, people from the Bai Family in the VIP Room erupted in chaos.
Howling Fist was one of their family's top Martial Arts. Now that it had spread outside, how could they tolerate this? The higher-ups of the Bai Family, while furious, also gritted their teeth at the culprit behind all this.
If they knew that the culprit was not far from their room at that moment, they would surely rush over to confront Xing Chen.
"Regardless of the cost, we must get back the Howling Fist. Otherwise, how can our Bai Family face anyone in Radiant City?" said the Head of the Bai Family, his face dark and teeth clenched.
"Earth-Level Primary Martial Technique, Howling Fist, starting bid price is three hundred thousand Yuan Stones, with each subsequent bid not lower than one hundred thousand Yuan Stones," announced the White-Robed Elder.
"Hehe, this time the Bai Family has really lost face; their family heirloom Martial Arts has actually leaked out."
"Indeed, let's see how the Bai Family can still claim to be one of the Three Great Families in Radiant City."
"Why waste so many words? Just raise the price and make the Bai Family pay up."
The crowd below looked at the Zhang Family's VIP Room with glee, and then burst into a round of sinister laughter.
"I'll bid 350,000."
"370,000."
"400,000."
The bidding voices rose higher and higher, most of them just joining in for the fun, as everyone knew that the Howling Fist would definitely be bought by the Zhang Family in the end. So at this moment, they all tried to raise the price as much as possible to make the Zhang Family spend a lot.
