Fierce Bidding
If this Life-Protecting Jade Pendant were placed in an ordinary auction, it would only fetch a maximum of 50,000 Gold Soul Coin, which would be considered quite good.
But today is different from usual; the auction hall is crowded with people and there are many bidders.
This auction will feature a set of 50,000-year-old Soul Beast Spirit Bone Set. All the major and minor forces in the Soul Master World have gathered here, and some rogue Soul Master have also come to admire the auction, making the expanded auction house extremely crowded.
With so many bidders, some naturally took a liking to certain treasures while watching the spectacle and placed their bids.
Moreover, the bidding price should be increased because there are many bidders vying for the treasure, which is a great thing for the auction house.
At first glance, this auction is beneficial to the Heaven Dou Auction House, as it can significantly increase the auction house's Soul Coin revenue.
At this moment, many high-ranking members of the Heaven Dou Auction House were paying close attention to the entire auction process.
When they discovered that the first treasure had fetched a high price at auction, they were all overjoyed.
"President Zhuge, it seems that auctioning the Spirit Bone Set might not be such a bad thing after all. From now on, the reputation of our Heaven Dou Auction House will increase significantly!"
"In the future, more Soul Master will come to our auction house to bid on and auction treasures!"
An elder in a red robe standing next to President Zhuge Jin said with a smile.
"Um!"
In response, President Zhuge Jin gave a faint "hmm," indicating that you are right.
Even without the red-robed elder explaining, President Zhuge Jin knew that this auction would bring substantial benefits to the Heaven Dou Auction House.
Not only will he gain income from Soul Coins, but Zhuge Jin will also be recorded in history.
In the future, when descendants peruse historical records, they will find that there is a record stating that on a certain day of a certain month of a certain year, during the tenure of Zhuge Jin, the sixth president of the Heaven Dou Auction House, a set of Spirit Bone Set was auctioned off.
Think about it carefully, this is an unparalleled honor!
However, Zhuge Jin was afraid of messing things up.
At this moment, all the major forces are gathered together. If anything goes wrong during the auction, it will be difficult to salvage the situation, and even their Heaven Dou Auction House will be plunged into an abyss of no return.
"I've made thorough preparations for this auction!"
"I've visited the forces I needed to visit, promised the benefits I was due, and dealt with the messes that needed to be dealt with!"
"I think there shouldn't be any problems!"
President Zhuge Jin's eyes flickered as he thought to himself.
"The only variable is Du Changxiao. What benefit does he gain from taking out this Spirit Bone Set?"
"For 150 million Gold Soul Coin? Obviously not!"
"So what exactly made him not want to fuse with the Spirit Bone Set, but instead chose to put it up for auction?"
"That damned Du Changxiao, what kind of wicked scheme is he plotting!"
President Zhuge Jin watched the auction unfold below, his brows furrowed.
During this period, President Zhuge Jin and some high-ranking members of the auction house have been trying to figure out Du Changxiao's intention in publicly auctioning this set of Spirit Bone Set.
However, no matter how hard they racked their brains, they couldn't come up with a suitable reason.
This caused a strange sense of unease to well up in President Zhuge Jin's heart.
He really wanted to grab Du Changxiao by the collar and ask him, "What the hell are you up to?"
However, this is obviously unrealistic.
Therefore, President Zhuge Jin could only work with other senior executives of the auction house to monitor the auction proceedings and identify any oversights so that they could be addressed promptly.
The auction is still ongoing.
After the auction of the first item, Life-Protecting Jade Pendant, ended.
Then 'Elder Zheng' announced that the bidding for the second item would begin.
"Attention all bidders, the auction will now proceed with bidding based on the rarity of the items, from lowest to highest!"
"In other words, the further along the auction, the rarer and more valuable the treasures become!"
With a smile on his face, 'Elder Zheng' addressed the bidders through a megaphone and Soul Tool.
As soon as 'Elder Zheng' said this, the higher-level Soul Master knew that the items auctioned earlier were treasures suitable for lower-level Soul Master, and their own special session was coming up later.
The purpose of the auction house is to retain all the bidders present.
By sacrificing the time of these high-level Soul Master in exchange for more foot traffic, the auction can be successfully completed!
Most of them came because of the Spirit Bone Set.
If so, the Spirit Bone Set will be revealed immediately upon auction and placed as the first item up for auction.
At that time, most of the bidders will disperse as the auction of the Spirit Bone Set ends, resulting in a significant decrease in the number of people at the auction house, which will be detrimental to the subsequent auctions.
Therefore, the auction house chooses to auction the most important treasures last in order to keep the bidders interested, keep them engaged, and maintain the auction's popularity.
If you want to obtain the Spirit Bone Set and see Spirit Bone Set, then stay put, otherwise you'll miss out on the Jade Spirit Bone Set.
"Next, we will auction the second treasure, which is an offensive treasure, very suitable for Soul Master below the Soul Ancestor level!"
'Elder Zheng' stopped dawdling and continued presiding over the meeting.
Then, a scantily clad, sexy waitress carrying an exquisite wooden tray gracefully walked to 'Elder Zheng's' side.
The pretty waitress from before then swayed her hips and backed away.
It has to be said that there are a lot of beautiful female waitresses in the auction house. Every time Du Bai comes to the auction house, he can see many different sexy female waitresses.
At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on the beautiful woman and the exquisite sword on the wooden plate.
"This sword is called Azure Frost. After being infused with Soul Power, it can unleash damage equivalent to a full-force attack from Soul Ancestor, and also inflict a frost effect."
"However, this Azure Frost has a flaw: it consumes a massive amount of Soul Power each time it is activated, so it is only useful in critical situations!"
"Therefore, this Azure Frost Sword is suitable for Soul Master below the Soul Ancestor level to use. The auction price is not high, with a starting bid of five hundred Gold Soul Coin and each bid increment of no less than fifty!"
"The auction has now begun. If you're interested, you can place your bids!"
"Elder Zheng" gave a detailed introduction and announced that the auction for the second treasure had begun.
As soon as 'Elder Zheng' finished speaking, all the bidders present immediately began bidding fiercely.
The light screen on the specially made wall behind 'Elder Zheng' kept flashing and changing, and the bidding price quickly reached as high as 1,200 coins!
Moreover, the auction price is still trending upwards.
This Azure Frost Sword is only suitable for low-level Soul Master.
Du Bai was uninterested in the items being auctioned, and even found them boring.
Fortunately, Du Bai could hug Xiao Dong Dong Bibi Dong and have a warm interaction with his wife, so he wouldn't feel bored.
"Xiao Dong Dong's wife, is there anything you've got your eye on?"
Goodnight, everyone!! Good morning!! Good afternoon!! Hope you all have a happy day!! The next chapter has some romantic interaction, and I feel like I'm not writing it very well, but I'll work on it gradually. I hope you won't mind!! But I don't know if it can be published, since it touches on some things. Hehe, if only it were that strict, I could write so many interesting stories about those kinds of trivial matters.
