Just as she was about to finalize the deal, a sudden bid of 800,000 caught Xiao Die off guard, far exceeding her expectations. The bidder seemed to be a girl, and Xiao Die couldn't help but look in the direction of the voice, surprised to find it was from VIP Room Two.
However, Xiao Die was experienced in handling big occasions and quickly regained her composure. To enhance the atmosphere of the auction, her voice rose as she exclaimed, "Ah, the person in VIP Room Two has bid 800,000. Is there anyone willing to go higher? This Combat Techniques is truly a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; it must be a beautiful and powerful Combat Techniques."
At this moment, the venue fell silent, but Xiao Die was already quite satisfied. With a beaming smile, she called out, "800,000 once."
"800,000 twice."
"800,000 three times."
At the same time, with a resounding "bang," the gavel came down.
With an excited tone, Xiao Die announced, "Congratulations to VIP Room Two for acquiring this unique Combat Techniques."
As Xiao Die made the announcement, inside VIP Room Two, Xuanran and Nangong Yu looked at Ruo Xi in confusion. Xuanran said, "Ruo Xi, are you being too impulsive? While this Combat Techniques is special, it isn't worth that price."
Ruo Xi smiled and replied, "I know, but I really like it. Don't worry; I'm using my own money to buy it."
Nangong Yu stepped forward and said, "Sister Ruo Xi, we're not worried about you spending this money; we just think it's a bit wasteful. You could use that much money to buy something more practical."
Ruo Xi glanced at Huo Feng, her eyes dimming as she said, "What matters to me isn't its original value; it's its value in my heart."
At that moment, Huo Feng added, "Now that you've bought it, there's no need to dwell on it. Ruo Xi, I support you. The most important thing in life is to be happy and know what you want."
At that moment, the voice of Xiao Die rang out again.
"Today is truly a great day. I didn't expect the first item to enter such a **. Next, let's continue with the next Auction Item. What could it be? Let's wait and see."
A metallic box slowly descended from above the Platform. The box appeared to be about one meter long but not very wide. Intricate patterns, resembling those of magical beasts, were carved on its surface.
Host Xiao Die reached under the box and took out a list to glance at it, then said, "Now I will reveal the second Auction Item."
As Xiao Die opened the metallic box, she exclaimed, "The second Auction Item is a Refined Iron Sword, which also comes with a high-level Combat Technique from the Connection Realm."
"Although this item isn't as valuable as the first one, it is much more practical. You see, most of us can't advance beyond Network Realm Level Nine. So this item is definitely worth buying for most people."
"Alright, I won't ramble on. The starting bid for this item is eight One Million Spirit Coins, with increments of one thousand Symbol Coins. The bidding starts now."
As soon as this item was presented, the crowd below became more active.
"Eight One Million Spirit Coins."
"Someone has called eight hundred thousand. Is there anyone else bidding? This item is absolutely a bargain and worth more than its price."
"Eight hundred fifty thousand."
"Number 1056 bids eight hundred fifty thousand."
"I bid nine hundred thousand."
"One Million Spirit Coins."
"Ninety-One has reached One Million Spirit Coins, is there a higher bid?"
With years of experience, Xiao Die knew that this price was about as high as it could go, so she spoke up, "Is there no one else bidding? Then I will call it final."
"One hundred twenty thousand once."
"One hundred twenty thousand twice."
"One hundred twenty thousand three times."
With a clear sound, Xiao Die announced, "Congratulations to Ninety-Six for winning the second Auction Item."
In the end, this item was won by Ninety-Six for one hundred twenty thousand.
Time quickly passed, and after two hours, more than a dozen items had been auctioned. Among these items, Nangong Yu and Xuanran each secured one.
Xuanran purchased a necklace that could increase Origin Force absorption speed for three hundred thousand, while Nangong Yu spent five hundred thousand on a high-level Combat Techniques from the Earth Vein Realm. Only Huo Feng did not acquire anything.
"Unknowingly, we are approaching the end; next up are the last two highlights, so everyone should pay attention," the host named Xiao Die seemed tireless, her voice still high-pitched and clear.
At this moment, something slowly descended onto the Platform. When this object appeared, Huo Feng felt a jolt throughout his body, and the silver light spot on his forehead reacted.
Hearing that it was a highlight, Nangong Yu couldn't help but pick up binoculars to look at the center of the auction stage.
A large, clod-like object landed on the Platform in front of Xiao Die, covered in dirt clumps.
Seeing this, Nangong Yu put down the telescope with annoyance, muttering, "What a piece of junk. A main event? You're just trying to fool people."
At that moment, Xiao Die's voice on the Platform carried a hint of helplessness as she said, "Many people have actually seen this treasure; it has gone unsold six times already."
"However, let me introduce it anyway. This was obtained by Master six years ago in a ruin. No weapon can break this thing, and even experts from the Earth Vein Realm have failed to shatter it despite trying various methods. So, based on Master's years of experience, he believes this is a valuable item. Unfortunately, no one has bid on it so far, and the price has been continuously lowered."
Various voices arose from the audience.
"No need to bid; even if it's a treasure, what's the use if it can't be opened?"
"I don't want to spend money on something so uncertain."
"What if it's just a hard clod like this?"
Hearing these comments, Xiao Die felt quite helpless as well, but this was her job. She continued to smile and said, "To avoid keeping everyone waiting too long, I will announce the price of this Auction Item."
"We are now starting the bidding for the eighteenth Auction Item with a starting price of three hundred thousand."
After a moment of silence, no one made a bid. Xiao Die spoke again: "You all should cherish this; it has dropped from one million to three hundred thousand. If it doesn't sell this time, Master plans to keep it for himself."
"Is there anyone willing to bid three hundred thousand?"
After calling out for a while with still no bids, Xiao Die prepared to give up and said, "Since that's the case, then..."
"I'll offer three hundred thousand."
Xiao Die, who had almost given up, was suddenly interrupted and taken aback. She then joyfully said, "There are still people who know the value of things. VIP Room Two bids three hundred thousand. Is there anyone willing to raise the bid?"
The audience fell silent. Seeing this situation, Xiao Die continued, "Three hundred thousand once."
"Three hundred thousand twice."
"Three hundred thousand thrice."
With the third call, a crisp sound of a gavel striking echoed. Xiao Die announced, "Congratulations to Room Two for winning the eighteenth Auction Item."
In VIP Room Two, Xuanran was on the verge of spitting blood and helplessly said, "Brother Huo Feng, why did you suddenly jump in like that? It's even more unreliable than Ruo Xi just now."
Huo Feng himself was also taking a gamble because of that faint sensation he felt earlier. Moreover, with one hundred thousand left and twenty thousand remaining, he still had over ten thousand on him, which was enough to make a purchase.
Thus, Huo Feng said, "When that item appeared earlier, I had a special feeling about it. It might be useful to me."
Upon hearing this, Xuanran and the others understood; otherwise, they would have thought Huo Feng was sleepwalking.
"Next, we will proceed with the auction for the final item. This last Auction Item consists of ten pills obtained from the Aust Empire. Each pill can instantly restore fifty percent of Origin Force when it is depleted."
"This is definitely a lifesaver in critical moments during battle; I don't need to elaborate on its value. I'm sure everyone understands."
"Now, I will announce the starting bid for the last Auction Item. The starting price is one million Spirit Coins. Bidding starts now."
"One million."
"VIP Room Four bids one million. This is a rare opportunity, everyone must not miss it."
"Two million."
"VIP Room Two is truly wealthy, bidding again with an additional one million. Is there anyone who can outbid him?"
At this moment, Huo Feng in VIP Room Two said, "Ruo Xi, we have run out of money, don't shout randomly."
"I still have over two hundred million left, but if others raise the bid again, I won't be able to keep up," Ruo Xi replied.
Hearing that she had money, Huo Feng felt relieved.
At this time, an angry voice came from VIP Room Four: "I am the esteemed Second Prince, who dares to compete with me?"
Suddenly, oppressive Origin Force surged from all directions, and a voice from the shadows said, "No matter who you are, once you enter here, you must follow the rules. Otherwise, my people will escort you out."
The Second Prince snorted coldly and said, "I bid two hundred and one million."
Seeing the Second Prince's attitude, Xiao Die frowned. Just then, VIP Room Two called out again.
"I bid two hundred and eighty million."
The Second Prince cursed under his breath: "Bastards! I'll see how you compete with me. Once we are outside, I will make sure to deal with you."
The Second Prince said with a tone of resentment, "I bid three million."
"The fourth VIP room has reached three million. Is there anyone else willing to raise the bid?"
At this point, Ruo Xi had already given up, and the others, knowing it was the Second Prince, did not dare to compete. Ultimately, the elixir was won by the Second Prince for three million.
"Thank you all for your support. This auction has come to a successful conclusion. Xiao Die is truly reluctant to end it like this. We welcome everyone to join us again next time. Those who have won items please go to the exchange area to collect them, and others please exit in an orderly manner. Thank you for your cooperation."
Xiao Die bowed to the audience and then descended with the platform.
After Huo Feng and the others collected their items, they headed towards the Southern Mansion. It was already late at night when they suddenly sensed several astonishing auras appearing ahead.
A familiar voice rang out, "If you oppose me, be prepared to pay the price."
