In this way, Xu Yuehuai had no worries, but the price had reached an astonishing two thousand spirit stones. All she had on her was a little over five thousand high-grade spirit stones, some of which she had won from her initial bet.
However, two thousand high-grade spirit stones was already the limit for many people, and fewer people were bidding. This time, it was the people in the private rooms who started to fight. They had already inquired with Xiaozhi and found out that only three private rooms were occupied today.
Xiaozhi really wanted to disappear into the corner. Having worked in this kind of place, she had long understood the principle that the more you know, the faster you die. She really didn't want to hear what they were discussing here; the information was too valuable and shocking.
"Three thousand high-grade spirit stones." One of the private rooms had already placed a bid.
At first, everyone who participated in the bidding wanted to see if they had the luck to win the mythical beast at a low price. Obviously, they didn't, but they weren't angry. Instead, they started to speculate about who would win the bid for the mythical beast this time.
Bai Ze kept staring at the location of VIP room number ten. Although his gaze was discreet, some people noticed something was amiss. "Do you think this divine beast is watching the people in VIP room number ten?"
"Now that you mention it, it does seem somewhat plausible. But who exactly is in box number ten? I've never heard of such a person before." Most of the boxes in this auction house are reserved for certain dignitaries. Each time they come, they choose the same box, which subtly enhances their prestige.
The person specifically assigned to room number ten was definitely not present today, something everyone knew. At this point, some people began to speculate, "Could it be that someone from another city knew the inside information and came to compete?"
"I think this is very likely, otherwise it wouldn't make sense. Why would the people in VIP room number ten be so rich? They've already bid on so many things without any hesitation when bidding. They're clearly very wealthy." That's what the people outside were saying about Xu Yuehuai and his group, but Xu Yuehuai himself didn't know.
The other two people in the private room were watching Xu Yuehuai and his group closely. They had just witnessed just how utterly depraved the people in the room were.
After the other two private rooms went back and forth bidding, the people in private room number ten still had no intention of making a move, and everyone assumed that the people in private room number ten did not have enough spirit stones to bid for the divine beast.
When the price had risen from three thousand high-grade spirit stones to four thousand, Xu Yuehuai spoke up, "Four thousand five hundred."
The people in the other two private rooms were stunned. Who would be so generous as to ask for 500 yuan at a time? In their small town, people are very cautious when asking for prices.
The people in the other two private rooms argued for a long time, but only gained a thousand high-grade spirit stones. Xu Yuehuai offered five hundred right away, which persuaded some of them to leave.
Judging from Xu Yuehuai's attitude, he seems determined to get this divine beast. If they continue to bid now, they are going against Xu Yuehuai. Someone with so many spirit stones must be no ordinary person. If they offend him, their future days will probably not be easy.
After Xu Yuehuai spoke, the other two private rooms fell silent, mainly because Xu Yuehuai's tone was too normal and flat, which naturally made people feel a little hesitant.
The value of this Bai Ze is definitely over 4,500 spirit stones, but whether they dare to continue bidding is another matter.
Even after the third command, no one had made a bid, so the divine beast belonged to Xu Yuehuai.
Fu Ziyi noticed this and looked at Xu Yuehuai with a playful look in his eyes.
Ji Yuanchi didn't understand why, so she leaned closer to Xu Yuehuai and asked, "Why did they stop bidding as soon as Yueyue opened her mouth?"
Ji Yuanchi was the only one who didn't understand the situation. If you had to say who was the most naive in the room, it would be her.
Xu Yuehuai smiled but didn't say anything. Fu Ziyi, who was standing next to her, explained, "Because others don't dare to offend us. We've bid on many things before, and without exception, we've won over anything we bid on. Junior Sister Xu is taking advantage of this mindset by keeping a low profile when bidding, making others feel that she's determined to get the item."
"So what if they're determined to win? Aren't they going to take a gamble? How will they know there's no outcome if they don't try?" Ji Yuanchi said naively, without thinking about anything deeper.
Fu Ziyi felt that she was being superfluous in speaking up, and that she should have remained silent like everyone else, which would have been the best outcome.
"Because we can produce so many spirit stones, it proves our strength is extraordinary. They are worried about the power behind us, after all, we have never appeared before." Fu Ziyi gave a perfunctory explanation and then fell silent.
Ji Yuanchi half understood, but didn't want to dwell on it.
The spirit stone collector arrived at room number ten quickly. Everyone wanted to see if the people in room number ten could still produce so many spirit stones. After all, they had spent a total of 10,000 high-grade spirit stones before, with Fu Ziyi and Baili Xiuwen spending the most.
These two raised their bids without hesitation, and each time the bids were very high.
"Why haven't the people downstairs left yet?" Xu Yuehuai wondered. Wasn't this the last item to be auctioned?
Xiaozhi said with a smile, "Each time, in addition to the items that are publicly auctioned, there are also some items that are sold off in secret. These items are generally much more valuable than the ones we just saw, and they are not listed in the catalog."
As Xu Yuehuai listened, she took out the corresponding spirit stones from her space and gave them to the attendant. After receiving the spirit stones, the attendant nodded slightly to Xu Yuehuai and said, "Honored guest, the divine beast is in our basement. After the auction, your attendant will take you there, and we will also help you form a contract with the divine beast."
Xu Yuehua nodded slightly, and the man took the spirit stones and left.
Miss Yan Yan received the news and began the auction for the next item.
At this point, everyone knew that the number ten VIP room had successfully produced 4,500 high-grade spirit stones to settle the bill; otherwise, the divine beast would have been released back into the wild for another auction.
The people in the other two private rooms didn't seem too surprised by the result.
They were quite interested in getting to know the people in box number ten.
There are ten items in the dark auction, each of which is extremely rare, and the starting bid for all items is in the form of high-grade spirit stones.
The mere mention of "high-grade spirit stones" eliminated many competitors.
Ji Yuanchi arrived here but didn't find anything he liked. The same goes for Pu Erge. Pu Erge is focused on sword cultivation, and his only sword was even taken by Fu Ziyi. As for pills and such, the two younger sisters here are both alchemists, so they don't lack anything.
After much deliberation, Pu Erge finally bought some herbs and distributed them to his two younger sisters.
