Led by the people arranged by Cao Xiaosi and Ji Fengyao, many powerful independent cultivators also followed and entered the arena.
As more and more independent cultivators entered the venue, the number of available spots at the auction gradually decreased.
The members of those large clans finally couldn't hold back any longer.
An elderly man in a black Daoist robe stepped forward, bowed to Jun Luoying and the leaders of the other major clans, and said, "Fairy Qingfu, fellow Daoists, I apologize. Our Jin family is the weakest among the eight major families, and we have been severely lacking in elixirs in previous years. The younger generation of our clan urgently needs elixirs to aid their cultivation and breakthroughs. We simply cannot give up this auction spot. However, if the Demon Clan were to invade in the future, our Jin family would certainly stand with you all against this common enemy and would not stand idly by. Farewell!"
After saying that, he led more than a dozen members of the Jin family to pay the entrance spirit stones, verify their identity tokens, and then went inside.
Once they entered, along with the rogue cultivators who had gone in before them, they occupied nearly thirty seats.
Even the independent cultivators who were still observing were fully aware of the situation.
They dared not hesitate any longer, and those with the ability all rushed forward to grab a spot and enter.
In the blink of an eye, more than a dozen spots were taken, and there were clearly not enough seats left for the major clans present.
Because of the Hidden Sect incident, the Qu family has recently been ostracized by other major clans.
Originally, they planned to use this incident to rebuild relationships with other major clans, but given the current situation, nothing is more important than improving the overall strength of their own clan!
The leader of the group, the second elder of the Qu family, Qu Jinshang, also hurriedly clasped his hands in apology to everyone and said, "Fellow Daoists, you have all heard about the affairs of our Qu family. The Qu family needs to recuperate and rebuild at this time, and elixirs are absolutely indispensable. Today, I feel that my Qu family has wronged you all, but rest assured, if the demon race attacks in the future, my Qu family will definitely stand with you!"
After saying that, Qu Jinshang led a group of disciples from the Qu family into the arena.
Fifteen more spots were taken, leaving more than forty.
At this moment, the usually low-key elder of the Shangguan family also stepped forward silently, cupped his hands to everyone, and led the clan members to pay their spirit stones and enter the venue without saying a word, thus taking up fifteen spots!
Only four major clans remained: the Biyue Sect, the Jun Family, the Lan Family, and the Gu Family, along with fewer than thirty available spots.
Jun Luoying's call for "united boycott" has completely collapsed.
Moreover, it was clear from the eyes of all four families that they all had a strong desire for the remaining spots!
"This boycott of the Dan Sect is indeed a bit unreasonable. Many disciples of my Biyue Sect are about to advance in their cultivation levels, and Nascent Soul Pills are indeed indispensable. These fifteen spots are really not enough for my Biyue Sect, so I will enter first. Please forgive me!" Huang Daohong, the third elder of the Biyue Sect, took advantage of the power of his sect and stepped forward first, taking up another fifteen spots!
According to calculations, the remaining ten or so slots are not enough for even one company.
The elders leading the Gu and Lan families exchanged a silent glance, then stepped forward and bowed to Jun Luoying, saying:
"The Jun family is powerful. For the fairy to make this suggestion today, it seems that the Jun family will not lack pills in the short term."
"A thousand years ago, the Dan Sect suddenly closed its mountain. We were unprepared, and now our clan is severely lacking in elixirs."
"Therefore, the remaining spots will be split equally between our two families."
"I hope the fairy will not be angry. If the demons invade in the future, we will follow your lead."
The two old foxes worked together to completely exclude Jun Luoying from their share of the market.
Then the two companies peacefully divided the remaining spots.
