At this moment, the old man beside Baili Tian frowned and said, "Young friend, you'd better stop now. My Baili family will not be fooled like this."
"Old man, you're really funny. You're talking as if my Dongfang family can be fooled at will," Dongfang Mian said, pursing her lips.
It turned out that he was from the Dongfang family, and everyone then understood why Dongfang Mian was so confident in challenging them.
"I will certainly visit the Dongfang family when I have the opportunity in the future," the old man said coldly.
“Alright, I’ll inform our ancestor before I go back,” Dongfang Mian said casually, but everyone could tell from her words that she held a high position in the Dongfang family.
The old man stopped talking, and the auctioneer on stage, sweating bullets, continued to exhibit the remaining items.
The next few items were all top-grade pills, but Dongfang Mian didn't bid on any of them. Instead, Baili Tian bid and won several items.
Thinking that Dongfang Mian's silence was ultimately due to fear of the Baili family, Baili Tian couldn't help but give her a defiant look.
"Idiot," Dongfang Mian mouthed without saying a word, instantly making Baili Tian's nose crooked with anger.
"Next up is the second to last exhibit, the most coveted treasure for weapon refiners—Gold Refining Liquid. It can greatly purify and refine jade and metals, with an 80% chance of producing a top-grade spirit liquid. This bottle of Gold Refining Liquid is limited to use on high-grade spirit weapons and below. The starting bid is 5 million spirit stones, with increments of 10,000. The auction is now starting."
As soon as the auctioneer finished speaking, bids began to pour in. The 80% chance of getting a top-grade spiritual weapon was incredibly tempting, and Dongfang Mian couldn't help but sit up straight.
The tempering liquid was the treasure that Dean Dong Ren of the Green Wood Beast Academy had asked me to buy.
Over there, Baili Xuan sat upright, his eyes fixed on the bottle of gold-tempering liquid.
The price quickly reached 30 million, and there were very few bidders left. Dongfang Mian was about to place her bid. Dong Ren had given her a total of 50 million spirit stones this time, so she must be determined to get this bottle of gold tempering liquid.
At this moment, Baili Xuan stood up and said, "Thirty-five million. Everyone here is a strong person from my Luo Qing Dynasty. This bottle of gold tempering liquid is of great use to me. I hope you can be lenient. My Baili family will definitely repay you handsomely in the future."
The weapon refiners present fell silent. Although the tempering liquid was very precious, offending the Baili family would obviously not bring them any benefit. The worst outcome would be that after obtaining the bottle of tempering liquid, they would be killed by the Baili family as soon as they left.
Seeing that everyone remained silent, Baili Xuan revealed a satisfied expression.
On stage, the auctioneer watched this scene with a mix of frustration and anger. This was the most taboo thing to happen during an auction. If everyone used their status to pressure others and lower prices, there would be no point in holding an auction.
Although the price offered by Baili Xuan was fair, it clearly did not meet the price that the behind-the-scenes boss was willing to pay. However, even Linglong Trading Company was unwilling to offend the Baili family, a local power in the Luo Qing Dynasty.
As if suddenly remembering something, the auctioneer's expectant gaze fell on Dongfang Mian. The only one present with the strength to confront Baili Xuan was this young lady. Judging from her performance just now, it was clear that the Baili family was nothing to her.
As expected, Dongfang Mian stood up and looked at Baili Xuan, saying leisurely, "Fifty million."
"Fifty million for the first time!" the auctioneer shouted excitedly.
"Dongfang Mian, are you sure you want to go against me?" Baili Xuan said hatefully.
But Dongfang Mian completely ignored him.
