THE LEGEND OF GENIUS THROUGHOUT THE REALM
Auctions
In the center of the North Star city, there was a magnificent three-story building with dozens of Xiantian peak experts guarding around the building. This is the branch building of the Star Trading Building.
In front of the entrance, two one-star Sovereign experts guarded the door and the queue to avoid any commotion.
Inside this queue, Tian Lei and Ning'er had been in the middle of it.
Within a few minutes, it was Tian Lei and Ning'er's turn to get the numbers of the respective auction participants.
After enrolling, Tian Lei got a small colonnaded board like a flag with the number 99, while Ning'er got the number 98.
After obtaining their participant numbers, Tian Lei and Ning'er immediately entered and climbed the stairs to head towards the second floor, where the auction took place.
After arriving at the second floor, Tian Lei and Ning'er could see an extremely spacious hall with hundreds of luxurious chairs surrounding a fairly spacious tube-hole-shaped space.
This tube-like hole was the auction stage. By positioning the auction participants above and setting up the auction stage in the lower room, this made the auction participants able to see the auction items clearly.
After entering this luxurious room, Tian Lei and Ning'er immediately walked over to sit down on the spot as per the number they had.
Waiting for half an hour, finally the entire quota of auction participants had been filled and the auction would begin soon.
On the stage below, everyone could see the figure of a long white-haired old man with a long white beard starting out from the door and walking towards the small stage that was none other than the auction stage.
The old man turned his gaze around and looked at the influential person who was following the auction this time.
Although Jiang Feng was completely invisible because he was not interested if not the auction held in the center of the Star Trading Building, but the old man could see four quite influential figures.
The four people were Zhao Yan, the lord of the North Star city, Yun Fei Sha, the lord of the South Star city, Hu Bai, the ruler of the Eastern Star city, Li Feng, the lord of the Western Star city.
These four Star cities were the four major cities that became the main dominions of the Northern Lightning Palace and surrounded the Northern Lightning Palace from four directions until finally it was dubbed as the four Star cities.
After finishing taking a quick look, the old man on the auction stage smiled faintly and stroked his long beard. "Haha, before we start this auction, let this old man introduce himself. The name of this old man was Xing Jiu one of the elders of the Star Trading Building. I'm the one who will lead the auction this time, please cooperate..." Said the elder quietly but everyone could hear his voice clearly.
When the old man on the stage started to speak, everyone seemed silent and looked very respectful towards the old man.
This was not because there was no reason, the hundred-year-old old man was one of the three strongest people in the Star Trading Building with a peak Sovereign cultivation. Also, he was one of the people who had been the founding disciple of the Star Trading Building five hundred years ago.
Seeing the state that had become silent and felt the limelight of everyone had been fixed on him, elder Xing Jiu immediately smiled in satisfaction.
"Thank you for the attention and we'll start the auction now..." Elder Xing Jiu said and he started to clap his hands twice.
After elder Xing Jiu clapped his hands, from the door that was near the auction stage, a beautiful maid with a glass-covered jade tray in her hands began to enter the auction stage.
The waiter then placed the jade tray on the table on the auction stage and began to open the jade cover glass he was carrying.
A very fragrant medicinal aroma then spread throughout the room on the second floor and made everyone feel good over the scent.
"Ehem, everyone. This was a tier 7 pill named the Rainbow Cloud pill. This was a pill concocted by one of the elders in the Medicine Palace that had the efficacy to increase the percentage of success in breaking through the next Star in the Xiantian realm..." Elder Xing Jiu immediately gave an explanation for the item.
After hearing the explanation from elder Xing Jiu, all the auction participants became extremely excited. Especially, the participants who were still at the Xiantian realm.
Not only these people, Li Feng the lord of the Western Star city also seemed to want to obtain the Rainbow Cloud Pill. Recalling, that his only son was also still at the Xiantian realm.
Seeing all the extremely excited auction participants, elder Xing Jiu also started to set the price of the item.
"Alright, everyone has heard of its efficacy. This Rainbow Cloud Pill will be at auction with an initial price of ten million gold coins with an increase in price of no less than five hundred thousand gold coins..." Said elder Xing Jiu.
"Eleven million gold coins!..."
Someone immediately threw the offer he gave.
"fifteen million gold coins!..."
Other people who do not want to lose also started to make offers.
"Sixteen million gold coins!..."
Bid after bid continued to be shouted by the auction participants and looked like a price war that would not end.
"Sister Tian Lei, aren't you going to bid?..." Ning'er asked Tian Lei who was just silent while the others continued to compete with their money.
Tian Lei shook his head. "That's a good thing. But none of us need those pills..." He said and Ning'er nodded in understanding.
In a short period of time, the competition between the auction participants had ended with the results of the Rainbow Cloud Pill being rewarded with thirty million gold coins that were bargained by the ruler of the Western Star city, Li Feng.
"alright. This Rainbow Cloud Pill would belong to the city lord, Li Feng. Then, let's continue our auction event..."
After the first item had been sold, elder Xing Jiu again clapped his hands to call the waiter who brought the next auction item.
A servant finally came back in with a small black wooden box holding a treasure inside.
The black wooden box was placed on the table and started to be opened by the maid. After the wooden box was opened, all the auctioneers could see a white gem shining with a gripping cold aura.
Unlike the previous item, Tian Lei seemed to be very interested in the gem. It could be seen from the look in his eyes that were fixed on the jewels on the auction stage.
Looking at Tian Lei who seemed to be interested in the item down there, Ning'er couldn't bear to ask.
"Sister Tian Lei, do you know that stuff?..." Ask Ning'er slowly.
Tian Lei nodded with a serious face. "Yes. It was an Ice Elemental Core Gem. It is a suitable item to be purified by either you or Xiao Bai. But, it was actually something that would be very useful to Xiao Bai..." Said Tian Lei and Ning'er understandingly and then followed the gem.
