Five million!
The crowd froze when they heard Jing Kang directly raise the price by nine hundred thousand, their eyes fixed on his private room.
Hmph!
In the private room, Jing Kang sneered. 'Ye Wushuang wants to bid on the Five Elements Void Stone? As if I'd let him get his way!'
On the other side, Ye Wushuang's expression was unruffled as he called out again, "Five million, one hundred thousand!"
"Six million!"
Jing Kang shouted once more.
The crowd instantly realized what was happening and fell silent.
No one else in the other private rooms spoke up either.
A price of six million had already exceeded the value of the Five Elements Void Stone.
Everyone understood that Jing Kang was targeting Ye Wushuang. They knew nothing good would come from getting involved.
All eyes turned to Ye Wushuang, waiting for him to speak.
"Six million, one hundred thousand!"
Ye Wushuang lifted his cup, drained it, and only then called out his bid. He added, "If Third Young Master Jing truly fancies it, please, continue. I guarantee I won't add a single coin more."
If Third Young Master Jing bid again, the price would reach the astronomical sum of seven million. Anyone would have to weigh whether it was worth it.
"You think I don't dare?!"
Jing Kang's disdainful voice rang out.
"Then please, continue!"
Ye Wushuang set down his cup and tossed the words out nonchalantly.
"Sev—"
Jing Kang's expression turned cold. He opened his mouth to shout but was stopped by the person beside him.
"Young Master Jing, Ye Wushuang is provoking you. Don't fall for it."
A member of the Jing Family spoke urgently, afraid Young Master Jing would take the bait.
"What's this? Giving up on the bid? Where's the confidence that let you raise the price by nine hundred thousand, Young Master Jing?" Ye Wushuang's voice was soft, yet dripping with a sarcasm that made Jing Kang's face burn red.
"Hey, hey, Jing Kang, you little punk! Don't you always go around bragging about being from a prestigious family? You don't even have the guts to throw around nine hundred thousand? What a disgrace to your kind. If it were me, I'd casually toss out tens of millions."
A roguish voice joined in, his words filled with nothing but contempt—thick, undisguised contempt.
Hearing that voice, the crowd didn't even need to guess who it was: Holy City's number one scourge, Dongfang Youdi!
That guy was sticking his nose in it too.
"CRACK CRACK CRACK!"
Jing Kang's fists cracked as he clenched them. 'Casually toss out tens of millions? Is it really that easy?'
"He is no longer bidding. It's all yours." Just then, a cold voice sounded from another private room.
"It's Jing Hui from the Celestial Pride List!"
Hearing this voice, the crowd was startled.
"Well, well, look at the brothers teaming up. But Jing Hui, you're a Celestial Pride, aren't you? Giving up just like that? You've got no spine!"
Dongfang Youdi muttered.
The crowd jumped in fright. 'He really is lawless, afraid of no one. Sooner or later, that personality is going to be his downfall.'
In response to Dongfang Youdi's taunt, Jing Hui didn't lash out. Instead, he said calmly, "Since Second Young Master Dongfang is so fond of the Five Elements Void Stone, I will yield it to you."
"Who said I wanted it? This young master couldn't care less about it!"
Dongfang Youdi shot back without a hint of politeness.
The crowd's lips twitched. 'If you don't want it, why did you jump in and cause trouble? And you even taunted the Celestial Pride, Jing Hui. Aren't you just asking to be hated?'
"Dongfang, you pest! You just wait!"
Jing Kang roared, his fury soaring to the heavens.
"Coward. I'll be waiting. Just don't let me run into you, or I'll beat you so bad your own father won't recognize you." Dongfang Youdi shot back with a swagger, relentlessly provoking Jing Kang until he was speechless and on the verge of coughing up blood.
"Six million, one hundred thousand! Any other bids?"
Cheng Xuan called out.
After a long pause with no response, Cheng Xuan brought the hammer down, finalizing the sale.
"Damn it! We could have gotten it for just over four million, but we ended up spending an extra two million."
In the private room, Lan Xinyu wore an indignant expression. If it hadn't been for Jing Kang's targeted interference, they could have won the Five Elements Void Stone for just over four million.
"Don't worry. He won't have an easy time from now on."
Ye Wushuang gave a cold smile. To him, the Five Elements Void Stone was far more useful than an ordinary item. He would have paid ten million for it, let alone six million, one hundred thousand.
"Next up for auction is a 500,000-year-old Ancient Medicine King, the Dragon Soul Nine Nether Mushroom. It grows in the Dragon Burial Land, contains immense Dragon Soul Power, and is suffused with Celestial Dragon True Spirit Qi. I don't need to explain its value; everyone here should understand. The starting price is three million, and each bid must increase by no less than one hundred thousand."
As Cheng Xuan explained, the mere mention of the word "dragon" was enough to convey its significance.
"Three million, five hundred thousand!"
"Four million!"
A few aged voices called out from the private rooms. They were all Nirvana Powerhouses.
However, they were all silenced by a deep, powerful voice.
"I bid eight million!"
The resonant voice was clear to everyone. They also knew who it belonged to, and all eyes turned in unison toward the private room it came from.
Ye Wushuang's gaze sharpened as he looked over, a trace of shock in his eyes. That voice had contained a hint of Dragon Power, causing his own blood to boil in response.
It was the Dragon King!
A name escaped the lips of the crowd—the master ranked first on the Dragon List.
No one knew the true extent of the Dragon King's terrifying power. They only knew that even those in the Nirvana Realm dared not provoke him, and his Combat Power could only be described as heaven-defying.
The moment the Dragon King spoke, many people shut their mouths. Even the older generation of Nirvana Powerhouses fell silent. Of course, the main reason was that the Dragon King had doubled the price outright, making his determination to win it clear. No one wanted to ask for trouble.
In the end, the Dragon Soul Nine Nether Mushroom was won by the Dragon King.
Dragon King!
Ye Wushuang silently repeated the two words, his expression growing grave. The Dragon Power from before had given him a sense of danger.
Afterward, more treasures were presented one by one.
The Hundred Spirits Profound Fire Cauldron!
A Saint-Level Lower-Grade Combat Skill!
...
Each item sparked a bloody, fierce bidding war.
Ye Wushuang did not participate. Though those items were valuable, they weren't of much use to him.
Right now, his only concern was whether the Holy Bone could be exchanged for the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Veins.
After a round of intense competition, many people obtained the treasures they desired, while many others were left disappointed. However, thinking of the items still to come, they pushed aside their disappointment and continued to watch.
"And now, we begin the final segment: the auction of the grand finale treasures!"
Under the crowd's expectant gaze, Cheng Xuan announced loudly.
Immediately, four tall, beautiful women each walked up carrying an item, drawing the gazes of the crowd.
The grand finale treasures, as the name implied, were the most precious items of the auction. Each one was enough to drive people mad.
For the people below, they had no chance of winning, but it was still a good show to watch.
"We will now auction the first treasure!"
Cheng Xuan took out the first item, a cyan jade Scroll.
"This is a Saint-Level Technique, the Five Spirits Profound Heart Technique!"
When Cheng Xuan revealed its identity, a wave of gasps erupted from below.
Generally, compared to Combat Skills, Cultivation Techniques were rarer and more precious.
A Cultivation Technique is the foundation of a Cultivator's Cultivation; you could say it accompanies them for their entire life. Obtaining a powerful Cultivation Technique not only meant gaining a strong foundation but could even be used to establish a family or a powerful faction.
And a Saint-Level Technique, which could at the very least allow someone to cultivate to the Nirvana Realm, was even more precious!
