Inside the private room.
Lu Yuan sat on the sofa, quietly sipping his tea.
It's better to say something than to say it.
As expected of the wealthy and powerful Treasure Pavilion, this tea is actually brewed from the tender buds of a spirit tree.
One cup down.
Lu Yuan even felt that his spiritual power had increased slightly.
"Why didn't I think of using tender buds to make tea before?! I'll try it with old tree buds when I get back!"
He obtained the ancient tree seed from a beginner's gift pack and casually planted it in his beast taming space. Before he could even react, it had grown into a towering tree.
So it's no wonder he didn't think of using the tender buds to make tea; it's all because the ancient tree grew too fast.
Lu Yuan had finished his cup of tea, but the other party still didn't make any further bids. The next private room was also quiet, with no other sounds coming from it.
He knew the other party couldn't keep up.
Wei Lulu understood that the other party had given up, so she immediately brought down the gavel.
Lu Yuan successfully bid for the Thunder Beast for 3 billion!
Hearing the crisp sound of the mallet, Lu Yuan also felt a pang of heartache.
Three billion!
That's no small amount!
That's almost as much as the profits from an auction!
However, after studying the jade pendant for so long, and finally encountering one that reacted, he couldn't let it go.
If we give up on the Thunder Beast, it's uncertain whether the jade pendant will even react next time.
At worst, he could exchange two more high-level cultivation techniques from the shop and auction them off, or perhaps baptize some pet cubs with special attributes.
It's just the amount of money that can be earned from one auction.
After figuring this out, Lu Yuan felt much better.
The auction is still ongoing.
Clearly, Chu Zhaocai had saved all the good stuff for the second half of the event, including a third-grade low-level cultivation technique, which caused all the guests to scramble for it.
no way.
The main reason is that cultivation techniques are too rare.
Don't underestimate its grade of only third-tier low-grade; it's already enough for a first-class family to use as a family treasure!
Lu Yuan was probably the only one in the room who showed absolutely no interest in it, and even seemed somewhat disgusted.
Is a third-tier low-grade cultivation technique very high?
The Divine Beast Auction House has even auctioned off sixth-tier cultivation techniques!
Compared to the sixth rank, the third rank technique is a complete idiot!
However, the price of this third-tier cultivation technique, which was considered the lowest of the low by Lu Yuan, skyrocketed to two billion in an instant.
Moreover, the rate of price increases has not slowed down and continues to grow.
Seeing everyone vying to bid, Lu Yuan couldn't help but feel envious.
A third-tier cultivation technique might fetch a few billion or two billion at the Divine Beast Auction House, but in Treasure City, it's heading straight for three billion.
In addition to Wei Lulu actively engaging customers and stimulating their spending.
More importantly, this is Treasure City.
Among all the cities in the Ling'an Continent, Treasure City boasts the most abundant wealth, so those who attend its auctions are naturally not ordinary people; they are all big shots who are not short of money.
"well!"
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan sighed heavily.
This is evident.
If he wants to turn the Divine Beast Auction House into the number one auction house, he not only needs high-level cultivation techniques and spiritual artifacts to oversee it, but also needs to enrich the types of items to be auctioned and expand his network of contacts, etc.
The pet cubs and cultivation techniques and magical artifacts he provided were too limited in variety to support the entire auction.
Most customers come for cultivation techniques and spiritual artifacts. Although pet cubs with divine beast bloodlines are competitive, they are still not enough.
"It seems there are still many areas where the Divine Beast Auction House needs improvement!"
Just as Lu Yuandong was pondering this, the third-tier low-grade cultivation technique had already been successfully auctioned off for 3.2 billion.
"Next, please welcome the last item of this auction, which is also the highlight of tonight's auction."
As Wei Lulu spoke, two burly men carried a crescent-shaped blade onto the display stand.
The guests in the audience stared wide-eyed when they saw the crescent-shaped blade.
"This...this could be a magical artifact?!"
Many people present had a vague idea of this possibility, since simple weapons were simply not qualified to be auctioned at the Treasure City Auction.
As it turned out, their guesses were correct.
Wei Lulu smiled sweetly at the entire audience.
"This is the Myriad Thunder Crescent Blade, forged by the legendary Master Hu Song. It can not only use lightning power to attack, but also absorb lightning elements from the surrounding environment to enhance its attack effect. It can even make the attack of a Xuanzhen-level Beast Tamer comparable to that of an Earth Spirit-level Beast Tamer!"
"The starting bid for the Thunderous Crescent Blade is one billion Blue Star Coins. Each bid must be at least fifty million Blue Star Coins higher. Distinguished guests, you may now place your bids!"
Unlike cultivation techniques, spiritual artifacts do not have a grade system.
But hearing about the effects of the Thunder Crescent Blade still truly shocked everyone present.
Can a Xuanzhen-level Beast Tamer unleash the power of an Earth Spirit-level Beast Tamer?
This is... way too outrageous!
Duan Yuyang, in particular, looked at the Thunder Crescent Blade with eyes full of greed.
If he weren't afraid of the guards at the Treasure Pavilion, he would have jumped onto the stage right now and snatched the Thunder Crescent Blade!
He just missed out on the Thunder Beast and was worried about how to improve his strength!
Compared to the Thunder Crescent Blade, the Thunder Beast was nothing!
Duan Yuyang clenched his fists.
This time, he won't let anyone's price be higher than his!
Especially that wretched number 38!
In contrast to Duan Yuyang's excitement, Lu Yuan remained indifferent.
It's just a Thousand Thunder Crescent Blade; in his eyes, it doesn't even qualify as an auction item. Only these people treat it like a treasure.
But that's precisely why.
He finally figured out the level of this auction.
"I learned a lot tonight, and I even won the Thunder Beast at auction. This auction was definitely worth it!"
Lu Yuan stroked his chin and chuckled, then his gaze drifted almost imperceptibly to the wall beside him.
The next step is to find out who is in the next private room and how much they know about the Thunder Beast and the jade pendant.
As Lu Yuan was pondering, Wei Lulu's voice suddenly came from downstairs.
"VIP number 37 has offered two billion!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Yuan raised an eyebrow, and a flash of inspiration struck him.
"Could that guy be a lightning-attribute beast tamer?"
Otherwise, there's no way to explain why the other party didn't participate in the bidding all night, only having two bidding attempts.
Moreover, one time it was the Thunder Beast King with the lightning attribute, and the other time it was this Ten Thousand Thunder Crescent Blade.
If that's the case, the other party might not even know about the jade pendant; they might simply be interested in the Thunder Beast King's potential, in which case there would be no need for him to approach it.
Thinking of this, Lu Yuan had a good idea.
