351: C351 The Auction Began

C351 The Auction Began

Wanfeng Auction Hall.

The carved black jade chair was spotless, and it was as bright as new.

The lighting at the venue was a little dim.

This was done on purpose by the auction house. After all, some auction items required the focus of the light source to make them more attractive. If the lights in the venue were too bright, then it would be useless.

Some items needed the light to become even darker.

Zhan Tianming sat in the VIP room and could easily see the outside from the inside. However, the people outside could not see him. With a glance, they could see the situation in the venue.

There were no seats left in the venue.

Buzzing sounds of discussions kept ringing in the void, and the action of whispering to each other kept appearing.

However, who would care?

A moment later...

Tap!

A ray of light refracted from the Fiery Sun Stone and landed on a polygonal crystal. Instantly, the light shot out in all directions, illuminating the auction stage very brightly. People in the distance could even see circles of five-colored halos in the void.

After a moment, the five-colored halos slowly dissipated.

An old man walked onto the auction stage.

The old man had white hair, but his face was red like a child's. However, his slightly hunched back and his pair of shriveled hands made it so that no one dared to treat him as a child.

Even if he was, he was still on the same level as Tianshan Tonglao.

Following the appearance of the old man, the discussions behind also quieted down.

Everyone's gazes all landed on that old man.

However, sounds rang out from the front row.

"I never thought that the auction this time would be hosted by Elder Zhao himself."

"That's right. Elder Zhao is a golden signboard in the Myriad Flourishing Auction House. Every item that was personally auctioned by that old man is of the highest quality. I estimate that the treasure that was fished out from the bottom of the ocean must be priceless as well."

"That's right. Otherwise, it would be impossible for Elder Zhao to personally host this auction."

"Since Elder Zhao is the one hosting this auction, we can all bid with ease."

"That's..."

Martial Cultivator, who was sitting in the front row, did not try to hide his intentions. His voice was loud and clear.

The others did not say anything reproachful either.

After all, everyone in the hall knew about Elder Zhao's identity. Those who were sitting in the front row were all from famous families in Fen City. It was perfectly normal for them to flatter Elder Zhao.

Everyone was already used to it.

Hearing such discussions, Zhan Tianming had an interested look on his face as he sized Elder Zhao up.

In the end, he even raised his hand to rub his chin and grinned.

"Looks like he really is the top scholar in his career."

On the auction platform.

"Cough cough..."

Elder Zhao snorted a few times. Those boot-licking voices also quieted down. They all knew that the auction was about to officially begin. If they continued boot-licking, it would only bring about the opposite effect.

Therefore, it was time to keep quiet.

Elder Zhao also raised his pair of bright eyes and slowly swept across the entire scene. He paused slightly at some important places to show that he took it seriously.

Finally, Elder Zhao said, "Everyone, it is very nice to meet everyone here."

"Your arrival has graced my humble dwelling with your presence. He believed that many distinguished guests were already very familiar with this old man, but according to the rules, he still had to introduce himself first. This old man's surname is Zhao. Everyone can call me Elder Zhao."

" Of course, it doesn't matter if you call me Elder Zhao. "

"Hahaha..."

Following Elder Zhao's self-deprecating joke, a burst of laughter rang out in the venue.

In the VIP room.

Zhan Tianming could not help but laugh. "This Elder Zhao is really interesting."

At this time, Elder Zhao, who was on the auction stage, raised his hand and pressed down.

That relaxed laughter also quieted down.

After all the sounds had disappeared, Elder Zhao placed his right hand on his left chest. With a solemn expression, he said, "My Wanfeng Auction House will guarantee all the items that will be auctioned this time. There is no falsehood. If it is false, one to ten. Everyone can set your mind at ease and bid. "

"Next, I declare that this auction will officially begin."

Following Elder Zhao's announcement, the first item was brought up.

In the auction hall, those people also withdrew their attention from Elder Zhao's body and landed on the item that was covered by the golden cloth.

Elder Zhao didn't want to say anything more, so he casually lifted the golden cloth.

Because he knew that a good auction item was more useful than anything else.

"This first item is a thousand year night pearl."

Elder Zhao held the Night Pearl in his hand.

Click.

The light in the Fiery Sun Stone disappeared, but the place where Elder Zhao stood was still bright. It was almost daytime. Eleven circles of white light spread out with the Night Pearl as the center. It was a beautiful scene.

Elder Zhao's eyes swept across the people in the venue.

After a moment, he said, "The Deep Sea Night Pearl forms a circle of white light every hundred years. There are a total of eleven circles of white light here, which means that the actual age of this pearl is 1100 years. It is a hundred times more precious than an ordinary Night-Luminescent Pearl. It is definitely a great gift for a beauty to be left behind. "

"The starting price is 10,000 silver."

Zhan Tianming immediately lost interest.

He was the one who took out the Thousand Year Night Pearl for auction.

Besides the Night Pearl and the Moonhowl Talisman, he also took out a low-grade Mysterious Grade harpoon weapon, Minor Rejuvenating Pill, Gui Yuan Pill, 50 Dragon Tiger God Bone Pill, and a few exquisite jewelry that Wu Zhang had collected.1

Those jewelry were not very useful anyway, so he might as well use them for the auction.

Of course, Zhan Tianming also kept a few of the best.

When the time came, he could even give them to a beauty.

Although the Deep Sea Night-Luminescent Pearl was not bad, it was not very useful to Martial Cultivator after all. He could only use it to win the hearts of some beauties.

Hence, in the end, he only bid 170,000 silver.

After that, the second auction item was brought onto the stage.

This time, Elder Zhao did not unveil the golden cloth immediately.

Because he knew when he should adjust his appetite.

Now, it was time.

His eyes swept around the room. When all the gazes in the venue were focused on him, Elder Zhao said, "This second auction item was made by a famous person. It is also an excellent treasure that can save one's life when you are traveling and training."

"If it wasn't for the fact that the original owner was extremely helpless, he would definitely not give up on this item."

"The original owner also said that this item will only be auctioned off in Spirit Crystal auctions."

When they heard this, a commotion couldn't help but arise in the hall.

Only auctioned off as a Spirit Crystal?

Even if it was a Heaven Grade equipment, no one would spend Spirit Crystal to auction it, right?

Unless, that was a Spirit Grade treasure!

When this thought flashed through his mind, some of the Martial Cultivator in the hall couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air.

When they saw the expression on Elder Zhao's face, each and every one of them held their breaths.

Could it really be a Spirit Grade treasure?
