The auction began!
Ye Hongtian made a gesture for the three women to stop, then slowly sat up and looked out of the window.
The auction house outside the window was already packed with people. Looking around, there were around 600 to 700 people.
Seeing this scene, Ye Hongtian couldn't help but suck in a breath of cold air. It had to be said that these 600 to 700 people were just sitting in the hall, but there were still a lot of people in the private rooms.
The curtains to the auction slowly opened to reveal a woman wearing a qipao. She was tall and slender with a smile on her face that would make anyone who saw her happy.
"Isn't that Su Qian, the daughter of the Auction House President?"
"Unexpectedly, this auction was hosted by the witch of Boundless City. It seems like this item is definitely not simple."
"Tsk tsk, this auction is definitely going to be good. Otherwise, the auction wouldn't be so important and Yun Qian would have to use all of them."
"…"
Before the items even went up on stage, there was already a round of discussion, followed by another round of applause.
Ye Hongtian looked at Yun Qian on the stage with a puzzled expression. What was so special about the daughter of the Boundless Auction House's president that could cause so many people to discuss about her.
Wang Mo Hen seemed to have seen through Ye Hongtian's doubt and said, "Yun Qian, you're 20 years old and have a cultivation of Qi Disciple level 3, you have only hosted a total of four auctions in the Boundless City, and these four auctions have broken the record of the most profitable auction in the history."
When Ye Hongtian heard Wang Mo Hen's explanation, there was no doubt in his eyes, but replacing it was a thick sense of surprise.
The Boundless Auction House had been established for thousands of years already. There was no telling how many auctions it had held. The record of this historic auction was extremely hard to break, but Yun Qian had done it. It had to be said that she was very capable.
"I believe everyone should know who this little girl is. Our auction house has placed a great deal of importance on this, which is why we have instructed this little girl to host the auction. Money is only for personal gain, please do not be stingy."
The moment Yun Qian opened her mouth, a sweet and beautiful voice entered everyone's ears. It was extremely pleasant to listen to, making people feel very comfortable.
Yun Qian clapped her hands and a maidservant walked out from the side, holding something that was covered by a red cloth.
"This is a piece of Spirit Beast Cores. It's the core of a Class 9 Winged Tiger. Father killed it many years ago, and since I couldn't find a master to refine the energy, I'll auction it off for everyone today."
Yun Qian slowly lifted the red cloth on the servant girl's hand, revealing an irregular golden ball. Even from afar, Ye Hongtian could feel the huge energy contained within the ball.
Yun Qian looked at the reactions of the people around her and continued to explain, "If anyone can absorb the energy within this Winged Tiger Core, there's a chance they can condense a pair of wings!"
These words were like a huge bomb detonated. The auction venue that was whispering to each other a little while ago began to boil up.
When an ordinary martial artist did not reach the True Origin Stage, they did not have True Origin to support their martial artists' stay in the air for a long period of time. Even if a true essence mirror martial artist had a pair of wings, they would be able to fly more nimbly in the air.
From this, it could be seen just how enticing a pair of wings were to martial artists like them who hadn't reached the True Essence Mirror.
"Alright, everyone please be quiet. Next up is the bidding war. The starting price for this Winged Tiger Core is three hundred medium-grade Source Stones!" Each bid should not be less than fifty medium-grade Source Stones! "
Yun Qian was very pleased with everyone's reaction. She clapped her hands to indicate that everyone had quieted down and announced the price of the Winged Tiger Core.
"Three hundred and fifty!"
"Four hundred!"
"Five hundred!"
"…"
The moment the prices were called out, shouts sounded out from the auction hall one after another as the prices continued to rise. Very quickly, they had already reached the price of a thousand mid-grade Source Stones.
Just then, a young man dressed in red suddenly stood up, cupped his fist, and smiled at the people around him: "1200! I am Lie Yan from the Fire Sect of the Boundless City, and I am determined to get the Winged Tiger Core, so I hope you all do not fight with me for it. "
Using his power to suppress others!
Seeing that Lie Yan had stood up, the middle-aged man who had called out a thousand times could only reluctantly look at the Winged Tiger Core on the stage. After that, he shook his head in regret.
When Yun Qian saw this move of Lie Yan using his power to suppress others, although she still had a smile on her face, but in her heart she had already scolded Lie Yan like he was made of dog's blood.
No one dared to bid after this move of Lie Yan's. Most of the people present were free martial artists, how could they possibly dare to offend one of the most powerful martial institutions in the entire Boundless City?
Yun Qian sighed in her heart. Luckily, the price of the Winged Tiger Core had reached an acceptable price. She looked around and said, "Young Master Lie, you've offered a price of 1200. Are there any higher prices? 1200 going once."
"One thousand two hundred."
"One thousand two hundred and three …"
"One thousand three hundred!"
Just when Yun Qian thought the core of the Winged Tiger Core would be sold for one thousand and two hundred yuan, a voice suddenly rang out. The voice suddenly changed directions, causing people to be unable to pinpoint the location of the bidder.
Yun Qian was overjoyed. As long as someone raised the price, her performance would be higher. Because of Lie Yan, no one dared to raise the price to the maximum, so how could she not be happy when someone raised the price?
However, Lie Yan wasn't happy. He had already revealed his identity, yet someone had actually raised the price. It was obvious that they weren't giving him face. Clenching his teeth, he shouted: "1400!"
"Fifteen hundred!"
"Sixteen thousand!"
"Young Master Lie is truly generous. I'm afraid I don't have enough money on me. I'll give the core to Young Master Lie, hehe."
When Lie Yan raised the price to 1600, that person suddenly stopped raising the price. Lie Yan was completely stunned.
When he heard that person's last two cheap laughs, Lie Yan felt that he had been played for a fool. Clasping his fists, he looked around and shouted, "I wonder which brother is bidding? He might come out to talk to me."
It was as if he had already left. Right now, he really wanted to find that person and hack him into pieces, but he could only sit down with a gloomy face as he could not find the source of this sound.
"If no one continues to bid, this Winged Tiger Core will give Young Master Lie a price of 1600."
After Yun Qian finished speaking, the maidservant, who was holding the inner core, left the stage with the inner core.
In the box that Ye Hongtian was in, the three people were sitting on the sofa with their hands on their stomachs while laughing. They were laughing so hard that tears could be seen from the corners of their eyes.
