Some old antiques who had previously concealed their identities also began bidding one after another, calling out astonishing prices. "Five million four hundred thousand Profound Stones!" an elder of an ancient clan shouted.
"Seven million Profound Stones!" shouted a man wearing a golden crown.
"Seven million one hundred thousand Profound Stones!" shouted an old man dressed in Daoist robes.
"Eight million Profound Stones!" The man in the golden crown raised the bid again. Each increase was a full million Profound Stones, making his confidence abundantly clear.
Many people turned their eyes toward the man in the golden crown. Some old-timers recognized his identity, and shock appeared on their faces.

"It's the Saint Fish King!"
"Heavens! He's a Great Wasteland Overlord who commands countless profound beasts, and he has actually come to Nine Yue Territory!"
The great clans were unwilling to offend this overlord of the Great Wasteland. Many people no longer called out bids and remained silent.
"Ten million Profound Stones!" A young woman's voice rang out.
