“How come it’s so expensive?” Liu Ningyun didn’t know what to say. When she played the game, there was nothing so expensive! She was a little wizard who was over level 20, and she got skills such as the Fire Wall as gifts from Ruan Ning.
However, now…
She felt like she wouldn’t be able to afford the skills such as Ice Roar or even Magic Shield!
As for the Enchanting Light Skill Book, the exorbitant price was only the beginning!
“80,000!” Zhuge Bai of the White Dragon Office quickly placed his bid.
People gasped, surprised that the price was increased by 30,000 in the very beginning.
However, it wasn’t the end. The moment that Zhuge Bai placed his bid, Black Demon offered, “100,000!”
“120,000!” Undaunted, the Yuanheng Pavilion increased the price by 20,000!
“130,000!” Xichi Spiritual Master offered. Although she brought a lot of money with her, she had a mission to accomplish. When the Haoran Faction increased the price to 140,000, she had to give up.
“150,000!” The old Daoist of the Yimu Daoist Palace was undaunted!
The price shot up, and it soon exceeded the mark of 200,000!
If it were only an auction among the players of the Legend of Mir 2, the price wouldn’t have been so high. After all, it didn’t matter how precious the item was, they might be able to get one when they kill a big boss or the event where monsters besieged the city happened again.
However, for the cultivators who didn’t play the game, they thought it was worth it for its price. After all, money couldn’t do anything for them unless it was converted to their strength.
Driven by this atmosphere, many players of the Legend of Mir 2 joined the bidding in desperation!
“210,000!” Black Demon placed his second bid with a totally different look on his face.
“220,000!” The White Dragon Office wasn’t willing to be pushed out.
“225,000!” Xi Chenzhou frowned. Obviously, the price was a bit too high for him.
“250,000!” Red-eyed, the leading cultivator of the Feng Family clutched the edge of the table as if everyone else in the room was his mortal enemy. He increased the price by 25,000!
“I want to see who can offer a higher price than mine!” The middle-aged cultivator of the Feng Family looked around him with his narrow eyes.
Indeed, many of them had come prepared for the supreme treasures that were going to be auctioned near the end, so they had brought a lot of crystals with them.
Although no one wanted to give up the supreme treasures, many of them also wanted the Enchanting Light Skill Book.
If they spent money on this item, they wouldn’t have enough funds to bid for the supreme treasures!
Many of them were weighing the options, and the cultivator of the Feng Family had obviously opted for the Enchanting Light.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared to increase the price to 250,000 in one go.
“260,000!” At this moment, Red Wing Daoist, the independent cultivator in a dark red robe, opened his mouth and made an offer.
That wasn’t the end.
Soon, the Xichi Spiritual Master offered, “280,000!”
“Master!” Liu Ningyun was shocked!
Aren’t we here to reclaim the supreme treasure that our faction lost a long time ago!?
With a snort, the Xichi Spiritual Master explained, “Right now, these people still have a lot of crystals with them. It is clear that they came here wanting that supreme treasure. We can increase the price of this item so that we’ll have one less rival later!”
“Ugh…” Mo Xian said immediately, “Master, you’re wise!”
No one had expected that a stormy battle begun even before the last few items were auctioned!
Although the Morning Star Sea Realm’s cultivators were much wealthier than the people in Dajin, Fang Qi was still surprised by how wealthy they were! They spent hundreds of thousands of crystals without blinking!
Of course, many people intended to buy this spiritual spell as the ultimate treasure of their factions, which explained their willingness to spend an exorbitant amount of money.
For the individuals including the Xichi Spiritual Master, this price was very high, and few of them could afford it with their own funds.
However, with the funds of the whole factions and forces behind them, this price wasn’t too high.
Therefore, the price continued to increase!
When it rose to 300,000, the players of the Legend of Mir 2 were squeezed out. For them, this price was too high. On the other hand, the players of the Legend of Mir 2 here in the auction were all presidents of the big guilds, and they intended to kill some bosses and get another Enchanting Light Skill Book that way.
With their influence in the game, it was not a problem to kill several bosses. With this thought in mind, they gradually quitted bidding.
The bidders now were non-players.
The non-players didn’t know that the Enchanting Light Skill Books could be obtained by killing bosses even though the chance of that happening was extremely low.
“310,000!” The Feng Family offered 310,000 crystals!
Many people hesitated at the price.
Almost all the players of the Legend of Mir 2 thought that this price was too high, but others didn’t think so, and the bidding continued.
“315,000!” The grey-clothed cultivator of the Haoran Faction yelled.
“320,000!” The cultivator of the Feng Family appeared to be a little desperate.
“360,000!” At this moment, a voice sounded.
It was from Red Wing Daoist, the independent cultivator in the dark red robe!
Obviously, he knew that he had no chance of getting that supreme treasure and thus put all his money on this spiritual spell!
The middle-aged cultivator of the Feng Family stared at Red Wing Daoist with narrow eyes, his expression unreadable.
When the price was already this high, no one wanted to increase it further.
Meanwhile, Ruan Ning said to Fang Qi who sat next to her, “Guild President, pinch me! I want to know if this is a dream or not!”
The happiness came too abruptly that her mind turned blank; she almost fainted as a result of this.
Then, a shriek sounded, “Ahhh!”
Ruan Ning shrieked in pain before looking down; she saw that her white and tender arm was almost bruised. While rubbing it with tears in her eyes, she complained, “Couldn’t you do it more gently?”
“I didn’t know that you cultivators are so soft and tender!”
“You’re just jealous that I’m rich!” Ruan Ning glared at him and said angrily, “I was planning to give you a big red envelope, but now… Humph!”
[TL Note: In Chinese and other East Asian and Southeast Asian societies, a red envelope or a red packet is a monetary gift which is given during holidays or special occasions.]
“Wow! You even know to take care of the Guild President! You’ve improved!” Mr. Fang seemed surprised.
“Humph!”
After a long time, there were no more bids for the item. As the hammer slammed down, the highest bidder was Red Wing Daoist, who offered 360,000 crystals!
For the players of the Legend of Mir 2, this was a high price beyond their imagination!
Sitting beside them, Xi Yue looked stunned. “I suddenly feel like I’m so rich.”
“Sister Xi Yue, you must be careful…” Ruan Ning looked her up and down and said, “You might be kidnapped when you go out!”
After all, she was the only cultivator who had mastered Enchanting Light currently!
Beside them, Mo Tianxing chuckled. “I hope the buyers don’t think that this is the end of the whole thing!”
“Senior Mo, what do you mean?’ Ruan Ning was surprised.
She looked in the direction of his gaze and saw the cultivators of the Feng Family staring at the cultivators who had successfully bought treasures!
