Chapter 55: Confrontation
In the Qingxuan Auction House, He Xuan was full of smiles, looking at the Lin family and the Huang family competing against each other, and was very satisfied. Google Search Reading
The more targeted, the higher the auction house's revenue, and the more he gets.
As for calling for a high price and not paying, he is not worried. The last Zifu Sanren who did so has remained under the land of the auction house.
He Xuan clapped his hands again, and a female cultivator holding a tray and a chopping board walked onto the spiritual platform.
This time, she saw a small leopard-like spirit beast on the chopping board.
The spirit beast has blue spirit patterns all over its body, like lightning, but its mental state is not good, its eyes are drooping, its limbs are all locked by chains, and a forbidden spirit talisman is attached to its body.
"Everyone, this is the descendant of the second-level peak spirit beast Lightning Leopard. If there is a chance, it is very likely to become a third-level spirit beast. The starting price is 1,500 spirit stones, and the minimum bid is 100 spirit stones!"
He Xuan once again introduced the Lightning Leopard in a moving way.
The eyes of the cultivators off the field were all hot, and they wanted to bid the highest price to take it down.
However, everyone had a bottom line in their hearts, so they just listened to the first half of He Xuan's words.
"One thousand eight hundred spirit stones!"
"Two thousand spirit stones!"
...
The price of the lightning leopard kept rising, and at this time, Lin Shiming also spoke:
"Four thousand spirit stones!"
He directly called a price that was almost three times the reserve price, and instantly shocked all the casual cultivators.
Everyone off the field looked at Lin Shiming, wondering what kind of young master this was!
Only a few foundation-building families who knew the details of the Lin family were still waiting and watching. The lightning leopard that could reach the peak of the second stage must be worth cultivating, but four thousand was too high. You know, it takes more resources to cultivate spirit beasts!
Lin Shiming ignored the other cultivators who were talking, and looked at Huang Yunqi.
His eyes were full of amusement!
His seventh uncle asked him to play, so he played well.
The latter's wrinkled face looked even older due to the black lines all over his head, and bloodshot eyes were gushing out in anger!
He stood up suddenly, staring at the direction of the Lin family, his veins began to show, and his whole body was shaking.
"Lin Xianzhi, you are bullying... too much!"
"It's okay to be arrogant, but you also let a yellow-haired junior come out!"
All the casual cultivators and other cultivators in the scene looked over. They were surprised that the Lin family sent Lin Shiming, a junior, to humiliate him, but they were more shocked that the old patriarch of the Huang family was so impatient.
This is the auction house of Qingxuan City!
As expected, as soon as Huang Yunqi finished speaking, a majestic voice sounded in everyone's heart.
"Silence, please bid normally!"
Then, the great perfection of He Xuanzhu was released, and all of it was pressed on Huang Yunqi.
The latter's face changed drastically, and he sat on the chair.
He swallowed hard in his mouth, and it seemed that a mouthful of blood was surging.
Fortunately, he didn't spit it out in the end.
"Four thousand five hundred spirit stones!" Huang Yunqi's face was filled with more resentment, and his teeth were trembling with hatred when he said this.
"Five thousand!" Lin Shiming also tried his best to imitate Lin Xianzhi's tone, which was unusually calm.
However, the calmer it was, the more Huang Yunqi couldn't calm down.
"Five thousand five hundred spirit stones!" As Huang Yunqi shouted angrily.
"Congratulations to the old antique of the Huang family for buying the top-grade spirit beast!" In contrast, Lin Shiming clasped his fists in congratulations.
Then he sat down, picked up a spirit fruit and put it in his mouth to eat, and his calm attitude was no less than Lin Xianzhi's.
The Huang family lost thousands of spirit stones again!
The elders of the Lin family who were watching on the side were somewhat appreciative, especially the second elder Lin Yuqi, who knew that the family had a beast-raising pill that could speed up spirit beasts.
In his opinion, Lin Shiming's price was just right.
Next, Lin Shiming made bids for two consecutive spirit object auctions, and each time he only made two bids! No matter how much he bid, he would not bid again.
The first bid was no longer like the previous one, which was a multiple increase, but almost the base price.
Huang Yunqi also called a junior to come out and bid, but his face was still not good.
Lin Shiming bid 200 spirit stones for the second time, and the Huang family suppressed him again.
Twice in a row, the spirit object was taken by the Huang family again.
When it came to the third item, this time it was a Xuanpo needle, a top-grade assassination magic weapon.
The base price was 3,000, and Lin Shiming directly handed over a price of 3,500, and the Huang family also provocatively bid 4,000 spirit stones.
When Lin Shiming bid 5,800 again, the Huang family did not follow!
The Xuanpo needle was successfully taken by the Lin family, but this price was almost the highest price for a top-grade assassination magic weapon.
Lin Shiming did not continue to bid, but looked at Lin Xianzhi with some concern.
"Seventh uncle, something is wrong..."
"They are just consuming our spirit stones!"
"The Li family supports us, and it will be a bit difficult to get the foundation-building pill this time!" Lin Shiming saw it, and Lin Xianzhi naturally saw it too, with some worry on his face.
The situation they were most worried about still happened.
They did disgust Huang Yunqi for a while, but the more they got disgusted, the more they were disgusted.
The Huang family had a Zifu family to support them, and they disgusted the Lin family. No matter how much they offered, they just paid their price. However, when they reached a certain expectation, they let the Lin family buy it!
The Huang family can make mistakes, but if the Lin family makes a mistake, the spirit stones they prepared may not be enough to compete for the foundation-building pill.
And the situation is not only that. Unless the Lin family is willing to pay a high price to buy some other magic tools and treasures, the Lin family will never be able to take away a treasure at this event through the normal auction price!
The Huang family is not a fool, and Lin Xianzhi always has a feeling that Huang Yunqi is a bit pretentious.
He has been pretentious since the city gate!
He has lived for two hundred years, and he can't help being excited?
"Don't shout, focus on the foundation-building pill!" Lin Xianzhi finally said. For the foundation-building pill, any good treasure in the middle is out of their reach.
Moreover, it is not certain that they will get the foundation-building pill!
More than a dozen items were auctioned. Although the Lin family did not bid, it still opened Lin Shiming's eyes.
This Qingxuan City event is indeed grand, with rare Yin people's top-grade magic tools, second-level peak spirit beast cubs, and various rare spirit talismans and spirit medicines.
And this is just the treasure of the Qi Refining Period.
At the halftime, the treasures on the field became third-level magic tools, third-level elixirs, and third-level spiritual objects of heaven and earth.
The bidders were all foundation-building casual cultivators and foundation-building families, and even the Zifu family on the second floor began to bid.
Several times, Lin Xianzhi also encountered the things he needed. After bidding once or twice, the Huang family immediately followed and raised the price directly to 30,000 or 40,000 spiritual stones.
The Lin family had no choice but to give up.
At this time, the foundation-building pill finally appeared.
"Fellow Daoists, now it's the foundation-building pill stage that you are most concerned about!"
