303: Two health-strengthening fruits, auctioned for 1 million spirit stones!

Guo Feng and the crew arrived at a large hall on the second floor, which contained many private rooms.

Li Yun led them into one of the private rooms.

The private room was spacious.

The chairs were covered in demon beast hide.

The actual auction house was on the first floor, and the area above the second floor was hollowed out. From the private room, one could clearly see the auction proceedings.

“This is our VIP auction hall, Young Master Guo. Rest assured, we have special formations here. You can see downstairs, but the people downstairs cannot see you.”

Li Yun said, pointing to the barrier directly in front of them.

“Mm.”

Guo Feng nodded, a smile appearing on his face. This perfectly matched his imagination of an auction house in such a place.

At this moment, Li Yun asked again, “Young Master Guo, will your spiritual fruit for breakthrough be auctioned first or last?”

“First, I think.”

Guo Feng thought for a moment and replied.

“Alright.”

Li Yun nodded and arranged for Yanshan Lang, who was nearby, to handle it.

Soon after, someone brought tea.

After chatting for a while, the auction officially began.

A very beautiful woman with a fluffy tail stepped onto the stage.

The woman was lightly dressed.

However, her aura was not weak; she was a peak level 54 expert.

Guo Feng also noticed that in a place like Yanshan City, ordinary people accounted for half, and those below Third-Grade accounted for a quarter.

Fourth-Grade was considered an expert.

Fifth-Grade was already a great expert.

And Sixth-Grade individuals were all important figures who could hold high-level positions.

Seventh-Grade was extremely rare, second only to the City Lord and the City Defense General.

As for Eighth-Grade, there were no more than ten in this vast Yanshan City.

And Guo Feng had already cut down two!

Therefore, Fifth-Grade individuals, no matter where they served, were middle to high-level figures, and their income far exceeded that of others.

This beast-tailed woman exuded a natural charm, somewhat similar to Nine-tailed Red Fox.

She was an excellent speaker, and with just a few words, she ignited people’s desire to purchase.

At this moment, Guo Feng looked at the beast-tailed woman and asked, “Why does she have a tail?”

Li Yun was stunned for a moment, then chuckled, “Young Master Guo comes from an Ancient Family, so he doesn’t have much contact with the outside world.”

“This is a half-demon.”

“That is to say, they have the bloodline of a great demon, so half-demons more or less possess some characteristics of the demon race.”

He paused, looking at Guo Feng, and said, “We also sell half-demon slaves here. The males are strong and can be laborers. The females can be female slaves, especially those with fox, cat demon, and wolf bloodlines, who are deeply loved by guests.”

“Shut up, am I that kind of person?”

Guo Feng rolled his eyes at Li Yun.

Li Yun quickly nodded: “Ah, yes, Young Master Guo is definitely not that kind of person.”

“Hmph.”

Guo Feng lightly snorted, pointing to the auctioneer below, “Is she for sale?”

“??”

Yan Mountain Enchantress’s mouth twitched.

You’re not that kind of person?

Guo Feng said calmly, “I just want to study half-demons; I’ve never seen one before.”

“Oh, right, right, right!”

Li Yun quickly agreed, then said, “However, this Miss Xiao Qiao is a free person and a Fifth-Grade expert. Generally speaking, she wouldn’t be willing.”

He paused, “Of course, if Young Master Guo offers enough, it might be possible.”

“Let’s talk about it later.”

Guo Feng waved his hand.

While they were talking, Xiao Qiao had already begun auctioning the Eighth-Grade spiritual fruit for breakthrough.

“For an Eighth-Grade spiritual fruit for breakthrough, only one is needed to break through from Seventh-Grade Ninth-Level peak to Eighth-Grade First-Level. To break through from Eighth-Grade Ninth-Level peak to Ninth-Grade First-Level, three are needed.”

“We have two here.”

“Both will be auctioned together, with a starting bid of one hundred thousand spiritual stones, and each bid increment must not be less than ten thousand spiritual stones.”

“The auction begins.”

Xiao Qiao’s sweet voice echoed throughout the hall.

“spiritual fruit that can break through to Eighth-Grade and Ninth-Grade basically has nothing to do with us!”

“However, it can also be used for Sixth-Grade to break through to Seventh-Grade!”

“One spiritual fruit can be split into two halves, allowing two Sixth-Grade individuals to attempt a breakthrough to Seventh-Grade!”

“In that case, we can try to go for it!”

“Two hundred fifty thousand!”

“Three hundred thousand!”

“Four hundred thousand!”

“Four hundred ten thousand!”

In an instant, people on both the first and second floors became excited. Many had been stuck at their bottlenecks for years.

If it could be used for a breakthrough, both individual strength and family strength could skyrocket.

One must know that in this social structure, a family’s strength is often determined by its top combat power.

A family with Sixth-Grade combat power and one with Seventh-Grade combat power are completely on different levels.

The upper limit of resources they can acquire is also completely different.

Therefore, as soon as this auction began, it immediately caused a frenzy of bidding.

From one hundred thousand, it directly rose to four hundred thousand.

At four hundred thousand, the bidding slowly started to decrease.

To be honest, four hundred thousand was no small sum.

Blazing Sun Taiyun, a Seventh-Grade expert, had accumulated for two hundred years and only managed to save over a thousand lieyang stones.

This clearly showed the situation.

“Alright, if you don’t have money, don’t compete for this. Five hundred thousand, I’ll take it.”

At this moment, a very arrogant and domineering voice came from a private room on the second floor.

“Second Brother, five hundred thousand, you’re really willing to spend that, aren’t you? I heard last time you got a spiritual vein, and it was only worth about that much, right? You’ve put out five hundred thousand, how much resources do you have left? Forget it, don’t argue with me!”

Another voice came from another private room, “I bid eight hundred thousand. Whoever bids higher is going against me, Yan Shan Flying Dragon!”

There was an uproar below.

No one spoke again.

Li Yun quickly explained at this time: “Second Brother is the City Lord’s second son, Yan Mountain Fu. This second son’s mother has ordinary influence, so his resources are relatively scarce, but his strength is the strongest, Seventh-Grade Eighth-Level.”

“As for Yan Shan Flying Dragon, his cultivation ranks in the upper middle among the eighteen sons, Sixth-Grade Ninth-Level, but his mother is from a Royal City Family, and her power is formidable.”

He paused, “Our auction house is directly under the City Lord’s jurisdiction, so even if they are the City Lord’s sons, they must follow proper procedures.”

“Is this still proper?”

Guo Feng chuckled, “They’re already using their influence to oppress others. It could originally sell for a million, but now he’s only offering eight hundred thousand. How can that be right?”

“But…”

Li Yun’s meaning was clear; he couldn’t afford to offend these young masters either.

“I’ll do it.”

Guo Feng said calmly, then looked outside, “I bid nine hundred thousand!”

As soon as he spoke, it immediately caused many people to look his way.

Guessing Guo Feng’s identity.

“Guo Feng?!”

Yan Shan Flying Dragon was immediately enraged. He had previously dined with Yanshan Star River and Guo Feng.

However, he was very annoyed with Guo Feng.

He believed Guo Feng was too arrogant.

Moreover, having come to his territory, he shouldn’t be so arrogant.

And at this time, Guo Feng was auctioning his own spiritual fruit and even bidding himself.

Wasn’t that going too far?

He angrily said, “If you bid nine hundred thousand, then I don’t want it. Whoever wants to be the scapegoat can be it. I warn everyone, whoever dares to bid, don’t blame me, Yan Shan Flying Dragon, for being impolite!”

“One million!”

As soon as his voice fell, a voice came from Yan Mountain Fu’s position, “I believe these two Eighth-Grade spiritual fruits for breakthrough are worth one million, and I am willing to make friends with Young Master Guo!”

“Easily said, I’ll be your friend.”

Guo Feng smiled.

This Yan Mountain Fu was quite clever.

“Yan Mountain Fu!!”

Yan Shan Flying Dragon was furious, as if he had been bitten by a snake. “You bid one million? I don’t believe you have one million!”

Yan Mountain Fu sneered, “How do you know I don’t?”

He paused, “Young Master Guo, rest assured, I will pay every single one of the one million spiritual stones.”

“Good!”

Guo Feng smiled and nodded.

Overjoyed in his heart!

A strengthening fruit worth 50,000 was sold for 500,000 spiritual stones each.

It had multiplied ten thousand times!

However, he also knew that, firstly, scarcity makes things valuable.

Secondly, too many of these strengthening fruits could not be sold.

Selling too many would increase the opponent’s top combat power.

Occasionally selling some, however, was still fine!

“You all just wait for me!”

Yan Shan Flying Dragon roared in fury, slamming his palm onto the chair beneath him, causing the entire auction hall to shake.

However, there was no further action.

He couldn’t make a move in this place.

That would be breaking the rules and he would be punished by his father.

Soon, Xiao Qiao brought down the hammer three times, confirming that Yan Mountain Fu had acquired the two spiritual fruits for breakthrough.

Then, she said, “Next, is an Ancient Spirit Blade, initially assessed as Seventh-Grade. The starting bid is one million.”

As soon as she spoke, there was an uproar among the crowd.

Guo Feng immediately sat up straight.

A Seventh-Grade Ancient Spirit Blade?

How awesome would that be?
