It was a thin booklet. As soon as the booklet appeared, the whole place was silent for a moment, and then a burst of exclamations broke out.
Most people here know that every three years, the final item at the Huayunge Auction House is a book of combat skills. Counting the time, this year happens to be the third year.
If it were an ordinary combat skill, it would not cause so many people to exclaim, but because it is a local level combat skill.
Earth-level combat skills only exist in legends, and are only heard of being in the hands of some outsider sects, and are rarely spread to the outside world.
It is said that the Fengming Empire's national treasure is an earth-level technique that only the royal family's disciples are qualified to practice.
Therefore, people have only heard about the secret skills of the earth level in legends. Now that they have seen it with their own eyes, even though they know that this thing basically has nothing to do with them, they still can't help but feel their hearts beating wildly.
"Earth-level combat skills - Li Feng Three Styles, the starting price is 20 million, the bidding starts now -"
"boom"
Regarding the ground-level combat skills, no further introduction is needed. Just the word "earth-level" is enough, and the people in the audience are instantly excited.
"thirty million"
Xia Changfeng's voice came from the box. This was Xia Changfeng's first bid except for the golden armor.
Moreover, if you don't open your mouth, you will immediately add 10 million. This handwriting, I have to say, is very astonishing.
Long Chen couldn't help but feel excited when he looked at the combat skills, but he knew that he didn't have the ability to compete, and Xia Changfeng's 30 million was nothing.
"Fifty million"
An old voice came from another box. The door of that box had never been opened. It was obvious that the man did not want others to know his identity.
Long Chen secretly thought: It seems that the old man came here for this combat skill. Now it is probably time for the heroes to compete.
"Sixty million"
A sharp sound, like scraping iron, which made people very uncomfortable, sounded from a corner in the crowd.
In that corner, there was a middle-aged man with a goatee, and that strange voice was made by him.
"Eighty million"
A soft voice came from the box of Marquis Ying. It was Marquis Ying who spoke.
The whole place was very quiet. Except for Xia Changfeng, the mysterious old man, Goatee and Yinghou, no one bid for the price, because this price far exceeded their entire net worth.
"One hundred million"
Xia Changfeng took a deep breath and loudly shouted the price. These two words hit everyone's hearts like a sledgehammer.
Long Chen couldn't help but sigh. Huayun Pavilion's ability to make money was so scary. A handwritten copy of Earth-level combat skills could be sold for hundreds of millions.
The most speechless thing is that they can copy countless copies and auction them in different places, and those who get this combat skill will basically hide it and want to kill everyone who knows this secret.
.
This made Long Chen become more and more interested in the background of Huayun Pavilion. Such a treasure was put up for auction, and he was not afraid of being jealous.
Although Xia Changfeng's price of 100 million was shocking, it only shocked him for a breath.
"One hundred and ten million"
The speaker was the mysterious old man in the box. Apparently, the old man who had been unwilling to show his face would not give up on this combat skill easily.
"One hundred and thirty million"
Not to be outdone, the goatee also shouted out his price. Now the advanced unit has been calculated in tens of millions.
Now the whole scene is silent, only the astronomical quotation echoing in the hall.
"One hundred and fifty million"
"One hundred and sixty million"
"One hundred and eighty million"
Such a sound tests one's mental endurance. Although it is not one's own money, it is still difficult to breathe due to Fatty and others.
Sweat dropped from Xia Changfeng's face. He had "revealed from the grapevine" before that there would be earth-level combat skills for sale in this auction.
So I exchanged all the gold coins I had with me into a transaction limit, which was only 200 million in total. Now it has been called up to 180 million. Seeing that 200 million can't be stopped, I can't help but feel a little anxious.
"Bai Chi, how much trading limit do you have?" Xia Changfeng asked Xia Baichi.
Looking at the crystal card in his hand, Xia Baichi said: "There are still more than 360 million."
Xia Changfeng was overjoyed: "Good sister, if Brother Yu doesn't have enough money in a while, you can lend me some and I will pay you back when I get back to Daxia."
Xia Baichi hesitated and said: "It's okay to lend it to you, but you must give Long Chen's head to me within a short period of time."
Xia Changfeng couldn't help feeling embarrassed. Now that Chu Yang was still here, it was a bit too much to say this in front of the eldest prince.
"Bai Chi, let's talk about this later."
"No, if you don't promise me, I won't borrow it." Xia Baichi snorted coldly, not giving his brother any face at all.
Chu Yang smiled and said: "I don't like this Long Chen very much. Besides, you will be my brother-in-law from now on. I didn't even hear what you said."
Hearing what Chu Yang said, Xia Changfeng's expression softened, and he cupped his fists at Chu Yang and said, "Thank you, Brother Chu, for your understanding."
"Okay, I promise you, just give me the crystal card."
Only then did Xia Changfeng get Xia Baichi's crystal card. He swiped on his own crystal card, and all the credit on Xia Baichi's crystal card was transferred to his card. In this way, he had a credit limit of more than 500 million.
Already.
"Three hundred million"
Seeing that the price continued to rise, Xia Changfeng simply shouted out an integer to show that he was determined to win, hoping to scare away his opponents.
After hearing this price, several other people were silent for a moment. To be honest, although a local-level combat skill is very rare, it also has its own price.
And the general price is much lower than here, but one difference is that the earth-level combat skills you usually get are all copied by others, which means they are second-hand goods.
The earth-level combat skills auctioned by Huayun Pavilion are not available in this area, so they bid at such high prices.
However, when the price of combat skills exceeds 300 million, it becomes a bit daunting. After all, if you have enough gold coins, you can still get it at a much lower price than this by going to distant lands.
When everyone fell silent, no matter it was the mysterious old man, the goatee, or the Yinghou, they all hesitated.
"Prince Xia Changfeng has already bid 300 million. Is there any higher price? 300 million for the first time, 300 million for the second time -" Yao Niqian started the countdown with a somewhat excited voice.
It can be said that today's auction has exceeded her own expectations, especially this local combat skill, which actually sold for a high price of 300 million, which made her extremely excited.
So after reaching 300 million, Yao Niqian felt that it was time to reach the peak, so she started a countdown.
"400 million"
What everyone didn't expect was that at this time, a lazy voice suddenly came.
The voice was very young, it was called by Long Chen. The whole audience was stunned, including Yao Niqian who was the auctioneer.
But before she could react, suddenly a small earring beside her ear moved slightly, and Yao Niqian returned to her natural state, with a smile appearing on her face.
"asshole"
Seeing that he was about to pocket the earth-level combat skills, Long Chen suddenly stuck a pole in his hand, and Xia Changfeng was so angry that he jumped like thunder.
"Long Chen, I don't believe you have so much money, you are causing trouble," Xia Changfeng roared.
"Idiot, if I didn't have that much money, how could I raise a price? Don't forget, I am an alchemy disciple," Long Chen's voice came.
In fact, Long Chen had been paying attention to what was happening on their side with his spiritual consciousness. The two boxes were only a dozen feet apart. Although he couldn't hear what they said, he could tell the general content of their conversation by looking at their mouth patterns.
Seeing that Xia Changfeng was determined to acquire this level of combat skill, he directly shouted out the price of 400 million without any hesitation.
But to be honest, although Long Chen looked relaxed on the outside, he was extremely nervous inside. If he scared Xia Changfeng away, he would have to pay for it himself.
Four hundred million, I'm afraid it's enough for an alchemy disciple. He may not be able to refining the alchemy until he dies. However, he remembered that Xia Baichi had tricked him before and made him use 20 million to buy the Melting Star Grass. If he didn't take revenge,
He was afraid that he would become depressed and sick.
"Five hundred million, if you have the guts, you can follow me."
Xia Changfeng roared that he was going crazy, although he didn't know why Long Chen had so much money.
However, according to the rules of Huayun Pavilion, if the price shouted exceeds the transaction limit in the crystal card, it will be regarded as causing trouble and will be expelled.
But now that the price is shouted out, there is still no movement, which shows that Long Chen really has so much money in his hands.
Xia Changfeng's roar echoed in the hall, like the roar of a wild beast, making people's ears buzz.
"Don't be so excited. I only have so much left in my card. In fact, you only need to add 10,000 to take it away.
I, Long Chen, have rarely admired anyone in my life, but Xia Changfeng is one of you. If you use 100 million as if it were 10,000, you are a well-deserved rich man."
Long Chen's voice was full of appreciation and exclamation, but in Xia Changfeng's ears, it turned into the most vicious mockery.
"You...poof"
As soon as Xia Changfeng shouted one word, a mouthful of blood spurted out. On the one hand, he was angry, and on the other hand, he felt distressed, causing a burst of exclamations in the box.
The faces of everyone in the audience were a little strange. For a moment, no one knew whether what Long Chen said was true or whether he was deliberately trying to anger Xia Changfeng.
"Since no one is bidding, congratulations to Prince Xia Changfeng for acquiring the Earth-level combat skill." Yao Niqian simply stopped counting down, because no one would be as stupid as Xia Changfeng.
The ground-level combat skills had been taken away, and everyone could not help but slowly stood up and prepared to leave. At this moment, Yao Niqian's sweet laughter came.
"In the past, earth-level combat skills were used as the finale of the auction, but this year is different. We have a more unique auction item as the finale."
Everyone was shocked when they heard this. Is there any treasure more precious than earth-level combat skills? People who had just stood up quickly sat down again, staring at the stage.
Long Chen smiled slightly, hehe, the fun is about to begin.
