Chapter 116

Auction PK

On the second day, Yan Qingyan finally found out what the "big excitement" was all about.

Unexpected!

Tiangan Merchant Alliance and Qianji Pavilion started the "betting" mode. Each party must hold three auctions in Feilan City, Huayan City and Leiyun City at the same time. The auctions in each city are held at the same time and in similar locations. The final transaction total will determine the winner.

The winner will obtain all the spirit stones obtained by the other party at the auction, and require the loser not to hold similar activities at the same location within one month after the winner holds the auction and other series of trading activities.

The competition requires that both parties sign a Heavenly Dao Oath and that they must not engage in a series of "unfair and unjust" competition tactics such as "looking for trouble", "privately using spirit stones to hire someone to raise the auction price", "bribing independent cultivators in advance", "sending their own people to bid high prices on the items in this auction", etc.

Only Spiritual Stones can be used as a medium of exchange at the auction. If the treasure provider requests a 'barter', the exchanged items must be calculated based on the 'market standard price' of the current city.

If the treasure being traded is extremely rare, the specific number of spirit stones will be determined by a third-party referee, the ancestor of the Purple Cloud Sect.

Before the auction starts, the organizer shall not disclose the auction list in advance.

The following are 10,000 omitted rules...

"The Heavenly Stems Merchant Alliance again?"

Yan Qingyan smiled playfully, what a narrow road the enemies meet!

"The Tiangan Business Alliance and Qianji Pavilion have always kept to themselves. I've never heard of any feud between the two families?" Ling Mochen wondered.

“No matter what the hatred or grudge is, just do whatever it takes to cause trouble for the Tiangan Business Alliance!” Yan Qingyan clenched his fists and circled in front of him.

I didn't expect that the world of immortal cultivation is quite down-to-earth. It's not much different from the actions of those evil capitalists in the mortal world.

According to the long list of "Heavenly Oath Agreement" that dazzled her and she barely managed to finish reading it despite having to grit her teeth and stare with her eyes clenched, the auction in Huayan City will be held in three days!

For seven days!

In addition to the auction materials collected in advance, customers at the auction venue can also bring their treasures to the venue owner for auction on stage at any time, but it is not certain whether they will be selected by the auction venue in the end.

This is because this "betting" auction does not limit the number of items to be auctioned, but only the time of the auction. Any item can be auctioned continuously within seven days, but once the time is up, the items that have not been auctioned in time can only be returned to the provider.

Therefore, choosing to auction more valuable and popular treasures is the way to win!

This is how these wealthy and powerful forces truly compete financially!

"Haha! Hurry up! Don't be too late!"

"Don't worry, there are still three days to prepare~"

Joyful laughter mixed with helpless and gentle voices gently floated on the beautiful streets.

Yan Qingyan pulled Ling Mochen and walked excitedly towards the auction held by Qianji Pavilion.

When passing by the Tiangan Business Alliance auction, Yan Qingyan deliberately stuck her head out to take a look. It was crowded with people and there were quite a few people going there.

"What's so good about the Tiangan Merchant Alliance's auction? Our Qianji Pavilion is still better!" Yan Qingyan muttered.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend. Qianji Pavilion is the rival of Tiangan Business Alliance and is one of our own!

Ling Mochen: ...

The two auctions are very close to each other, but it can be seen from the number of people that more monks go to the Tiangan Merchant Alliance.

After all, Qianji Pavilion's external image has always been that of an "information dealer", while Tiangan Business Alliance is the "tycoon" with deep pockets who has stored treasures and left them to gather dust. Naturally, everyone thinks that Tiangan Business Alliance has a greater chance of winning.

Many gambling houses also opened for business. The vast majority of cultivators bet on the Tiangan Merchant Alliance. There were also some who were optimistic about the Qianji Pavilion, but only a minority.

The contrast is tragic.

Inside the gambling house.

"Qianji Pavilion is well-informed, how could they do such an irrational thing?"

"I heard that this 'bet' was not proposed by Qianji Pavilion, but by Tiangan Merchant Alliance. I just don't know why Qianji Pavilion accepted it."

"No way, why did I hear that it was Qianji Pavilion that first proposed it?"

"It was the Tiangan Merchant Alliance who first proposed it! Do you remember the large-scale trading fair held in Wangjiang City before? The Tiangan Merchant Alliance was to collect a large amount of natural treasures in preparation for today's competition!"

"Not only that, in order to get Qianji Pavilion to agree to this competition, one of Qianji Pavilion's bases was surrounded!"

"Hiss~ Isn't this a long-planned plan?!"

"There are times when the Qianji Pavilion is not well-informed."

"Haha~ Then if I bet on the Tiangan Merchant Alliance, wouldn't that be a safe bet for me to make money?!"

"I don't care how those big forces fight, I just want to make some small spiritual stones, and I bet on the Tiangan Merchant Alliance to win!"

“…”

"I bet on Qianji Pavilion to win!"

Just as everyone in the lobby was discussing how to place bets for the Tiangan Merchant Alliance, a discordant voice suddenly rang out.

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and saw a woman in a black robe and a mask, placing a storage bag containing millions of mid-grade spirit stones at the location of Qianji Pavilion.

"The final winner will definitely be Qianji Pavilion!" Yan Qingyan said as if to encourage others.

Everyone: ...

Where did this stupid, rich, second-generation rich guy come from, with so many spirit stones that he has no place to put them?

There was a moment of silence in the air.

Yan Qingyan snorted coldly and continued walking towards the next gambling house.

As for where these spirit stones came from, they were naturally exchanged for several precious spirit plants and elixirs at the Qianji Pavilion auction venue.

After receiving the treasure from the provider, the auction house will first give a spirit stone worth half the market price as a deposit, as well as a token.

Yan Qingyan observed the odds of each gambling house.

If Qianji Pavilion is the winner in the end, she will make a fortune!

I must win and take out all the treasures in the bottom of the box for her!

"Qingyan, if the Tiangan Business Alliance is the final winner, everything we do today will be to make wedding dresses for them." The more news Ling Mochen heard along the way, the more uncertain he felt.

"Then let Qianji Pavilion win!" Yan Qingyan said confidently: "Don't worry, we are here. With my spiritual plants and your elixirs, I don't believe you can lose like this!"

She still remembered that Song Shaochi had given the Foundation Establishment Pill to Ling Yaozu in public, causing trouble for Mo Chen. She would not feel at ease unless she vented her anger!

Damn Song Shaochi, it would have been fine if he just made her unhappy, but he actually dared to make things difficult for Mo Chen in front of her, and even had the nerve to say it in the name of "for her own good". If she didn't do something, did he really think she was easy to bully? !

Yan Qingyan's spiritual sense swept across the vast tracts of thriving spiritual plants in the spiritual spring space, and she felt extremely at ease.

Qianji Pavilion, I have bet most of my spiritual stones on you, so you must give me some support!

Yan Qingyan suddenly thought of something and said to Ling Mochen, "Let's go to the Qianji Pavilion base to ask and see what countermeasures they have."

She didn't believe that such a powerful force would just sit there and wait to die!
