Three-Grade Pill, Auction!

"To be honest, given this pill's effects, I even wanted to bid on it myself."

Guni spoke with a sigh.

"If we weren't in such a hurry and had properly promoted it, the final price of this pill would likely have been quite high."

"Mm." Ya Fei nodded as well. "After all, this pill can strengthen the foundation of one's Dou Qi, and it can even increase the chances of breaking through to Dou Shi by thirty percent. With that additional thirty percent chance, breaking through to Dou Shi is practically guaranteed."

"However, auctioning it as soon as possible was also that lord's wish. We absolutely cannot delay."

Upon hearing this, Guni picked up the pill and headed out the door.

There was still one shichen until the next auction. Though the time was a little tight, proper publicity could still produce decent results!

The Mite'er Auction House naturally had quite a good reputation in Wutan City.

Thus, as the Mite'er Auction House continued its promotion, quite a few people and forces in Wutan City learned that an extra pill had been added to the upcoming auction at the last minute.

Moreover, that pill had been designated as the grand finale and would be auctioned last.

As a result, many forces immediately became extremely curious.

Yet no matter how they asked, the people of the Mite'er Auction House remained tight-lipped about that mysterious finale pill, thoroughly whetting everyone's appetite. All they managed to learn was that this auction would be personally hosted by Ya Fei!

This made many people take that finale pill even more seriously!

Very soon, the auction began as scheduled.

Under the Mite'er Auction House's tireless promotion, what had originally been an ordinary auction was now packed to the brim.

All three great clans of Wutan City had actually arrived!

The sight stirred excitement in many people.

After all, everyone knew that the Xiao Clan and the Jialie Clan had always been at odds, with constant friction between the two forces.

Thus, it seemed that today's finale pill would surely spark a fierce battle!

Soon, the auction began.

The first auctioneer to take the stage was not Ya Fei, but a rather ordinary-looking auctioneer.

"Everyone, the first item is a Black Iron Sword meticulously forged by Yan Feng, Wutan City's master weapon-smith. This sword cuts through iron like mud and feels excellent in the hand..."

A pure white longsword was placed on the table, and the auctioneer gave it a brief introduction.

However, the crowd below was clearly uninterested, showing no exaggerated reaction. After a dry cough, the auctioneer spoke directly.

"The Black Iron Sword has a starting bid of five hundred gold coins. Please place your bids."

In the end, the Black Iron Sword sold for one thousand gold coins.

Then, the second item was brought out...

The entire auction proceeded in an orderly fashion.

During that time, the people from the three great clans only bid on a few items.

Their indifferent expressions made it clear to everyone that they had come for the finale pill!

Finally, after the second-to-last medicinal ingredient had been sold, the auctioneer slowly stepped down.

Everyone watched with burning eyes as the mature and seductive Ya Fei strode gracefully onto the stage.

She carried a tray in her hands.

The item on the tray was covered by a piece of red silk, blocking everyone's view.

Ya Fei set the tray on the table before her, then smiled at the crowd below.

"Today, forces great and small from all over Wutan City have gathered at our Mite'er Auction House. This little woman is truly flattered. If our auction house has shown any discourtesy, I hope everyone will not take offense."

Her captivating charm made many people's hearts itch. Every smile and frown instantly stirred the somewhat lifeless atmosphere.

"Miss Ya Fei, stop keeping us in suspense. Everyone knows why we have gathered here today. Hurry up and reveal it." An old man seated in the front row spoke at that moment.

"Clan Head Jialie, don't be so impatient. Good things naturally have to be saved for last." The smile on Ya Fei's face grew even richer.

The old man who had just spoken was naturally Jialie Bi, the current clan head of the Jialie Clan.

Seeing the impatient gazes of the crowd and the thoroughly ignited atmosphere, Ya Fei finally nodded in satisfaction.

Then, she slowly lifted the red cloth, revealing a sandalwood box beneath it.

Ya Fei carefully picked up the sandalwood box with her slender hand and said, "This is a three-grade pill created by an unparalleled master. It is called the Body Tempering Pill."

Ya Fei's seductive voice caused the entire auction house to fall silent.

Then, everyone's breathing grew heated as they stared intensely at the sandalwood box in Ya Fei's hand!

Even the clan heads of the three great clans could not remain calm, their breaths turning rapid.

This was a three-grade pill!

"Everyone, first listen to this pill's effects." Ya Fei was naturally quite pleased with their reactions and continued, "This Body Tempering Pill can improve the physique and strengthen the meridians of Dou Zhe and those below them. After taking it, one can greatly solidify one's foundation. At the same time, it increases the success rate of breaking through to Dou Zhe by fifty percent, and the success rate of breaking through to Dou Shi by thirty percent!

According to Master Guni's appraisal, this pill has no side effects whatsoever. It can even increase the success rate of breaking through to Da Dou Shi by ten percent!"

At the mention of increased success rates, the entire auction house erupted in an uproar, with whispers rising everywhere!

"The starting price for this pill is thirty thousand gold coins. Please begin bidding." Ya Fei said with a smile.

"Thirty-five thousand!" The moment Ya Fei finished speaking, someone immediately called out.

"Forty thousand!" Another bid quickly followed.

Though forty thousand gold coins was already an enormous sum, it was absolutely worth the price for this pill!

Thus, the price in the hall continued to climb.

In just a short while, it had risen to sixty thousand gold coins!

However, no one from the three great clans had bid yet. These minor players had not reached the point where they needed to step in.

The bidding continued for a while longer before the voices finally began to fade.

"Eighty thousand." Jialie Bi spoke calmly.

As his words fell, the hall quieted. Many people looked at Jialie Bi and stopped bidding. The Jialie Clan was wealthy and powerful; they were not qualified to compete with them.

"One hundred thousand!" However, not long after Jialie Bi spoke, Xiao Zhan, who was also seated in the front row, suddenly called out.

The hall abruptly fell silent.

Many people gave up on bidding altogether, while only Jialie Bi's face revealed unwillingness.

With this pill, his son would practically be guaranteed to advance to Dou Shi. Naturally, he could not easily give up.

"One hundred ten thousand!" Jialie Bi called out.

"One hundred twenty thousand!" Before Jialie Bi had even finished speaking, Xiao Zhan immediately followed.

Seeing this, Ya Fei was delighted inwardly, yet she also felt a little wistful.

This pill was indeed exceptionally precious, but when she remembered that it had been refined by Xiao Tianci, the Xiao Clan somehow seemed like a bunch of suckers.
