The high-ranking officials and nobles of the Great Zhou Dynasty had long guessed who was sitting in Sky VIP Room Number 1.
After all, what happened in the Wanxian Restaurant yesterday had already spread like wildfire in the capital. If they still couldn’t guess who was sitting in Sky VIP Room Number 1, then these VIPs must be really stupid.
After the auction for the Giant Origin Stone ended, Ji Yue began a new round of auctions.
The storage ring containing the Giant Origin Stone had long been sent to Su Yu in the VIP Room.
Next, among the auction items, Su Yu also bid for a broken saber tip and an item that was completely blood-red like a ruby.
The guests in the other VIP rooms knew very well that an item that the big shot in Sky VIP Room Number 1 liked was definitely a treasure. However, even if they knew, no one dared to snatch it from him!
If they dared to counter bid, they really suspected that they would not be able to see the sun tomorrow.
This was very normal. After all, in the martial arts world, the words of the strong were the rules. Even if the Great Zhou Dynasty had its law, existences whose strength surpassed the dynasty could completely ignore these laws.
Rules could only restrain existences weaker than those who made rules.
As for Ji Ruoyan, who was sitting beside Su Yu, she was no less curious than the others.
Apart from the Giant Origin Stone, Ji Ruoyan had naturally seen two other items. However, in Ji Ruoyan’s opinion the tip of the saber might be a fragment of a high-level weapon. Other than being hard, it did not have any other characteristics.
In addition, the group of appraisers in the commerce association had also appraised that item. Their evaluation of the tip of the saber was not high.
However, it was this saber tip that did not receive a high evaluation that caught Su Yu’s attention.
This instantly made Ji Ruoyan feel that she and the group of appraisers might have made a mistake.
“Sir Su, what are the effects of the two items you just purchased? Can you tell me? If it’s not convenient for you to say it, then forget it.” In the end, Ji Ruoyan could not hold back her curiosity and asked Su Yu carefully.
“It’s nothing. That tip of the saber contains a trace of the power of rules of the path of saber. It should be a fragment of a king artifact. However, its power has already been lost. I want to see if I can use this to comprehend saber intent.” “As for the other item that’s similar to a crystal, it should contain a spiritual plant seed. I’m quite interested in this, so I bought it.”
Su Yu did not avoid Ji Ruoyan’s question. After all, it was not some divine weapon. It was not a big deal to say it.
“Sir is truly a man of knowledge.” Upon hearing this, Ji Ruoyan flattered Su Yu.
In fact, Ji Ruoyan was quite puzzled. How could there be such an abnormal monster in this day and age? Not only were they at the Martial Lord realm, but they were so ridiculously knowledgeable.
Even the many appraisers in the Myriad Commerce Association could not compare to him.
Towards Ji Ruoyan’s flattery, Su Yu really wanted to say, ‘I’m actually terrible at studying, but I’ve recently reached some sort of enlightenment.’
As time gradually passed, the auction came to an end.
On the auction stage below, Ji Yue was explaining the last auction item.
“Everyone, this item was salvaged from the underwater ruins by our Myriad Commerce Association. According to the appraisal of the Masters, this item is very likely the key to an underwater treasure. However, we don’t know the exact location of the treasure.”
[Bronze Key]
Description: A secret key used to open the tomb of a Titled Martial King of the sea creatures. The map to the tomb is contained inside.
Method to obtain it: Use the blood essence of the descendant of this titled Martial King to activate the map contained in it.
Seeing that the auction was about to end, Su Yu casually glanced at the Bronze Key on the auction stage.
‘It’s really the key to opening a certain place. Could it be that the appraisers of the Myriad Commerce Association actually have some skills?’
After seeing the introduction of the Bronze Key, Su Yu could not help but think.
Meanwhile, a young man in Black VIP Room Number 999 was so excited when he saw the Bronze Key on the auction stage.
“It’s exactly the same as the Bronze Key recorded in the secret scroll that Elder Hai gave me. I have to obtain this Bronze Key.”
“Old Hai, I saw that Bronze key.” Seeing this, Xiao Chen reached out and rubbed the jade green ring on his finger.
“Little Chen, you must obtain this Bronze Key. This will be the key to your ascent.”
An extremely elderly voice directly entered Xiao Chen’s ears from the ring.
“Elder Hai, don’t worry. This item doesn’t even include a sea map included. It shouldn’t be sold for a very high price.”
Hearing this, Xiao Chen promised solemnly.
Just as Xiao Chen had said, very few people were interested in the Bronze Key.
Most of the bidders were more interested in these rare items. They did not really want to hunt for treasures, but were prepared to buy them back as a collection.
If Su Yu did not attend this auction, it would not be a problem for Xiao Chen to obtain this Bronze Key.
However, after gaining insight into the Bronze Key on the auction stage, Su Yu was very interested in this key!
“The guest in Black VIP Room Number 999 bid 50,000 general coins. Are there guests who would like to continue bidding?”
Just as Ji Yue thought that the auction would end here, something out of expectations actually happened.
“100,000.” Just as Ji Yue finished her train of thoughts, Ji Ruoyan’s cold voice sounded from Sky VIP Room Number 1.
At this moment, the smile on Xiao Chen’s face froze.
Xiao Chen never expected that a roadblock would appear at this moment.
When he realized that the bidder was from Sky VIP Room Number 1, Xiao Chen’s expression turned as ugly as it could be.
“Elder Hai, what should we do now?” Xiao Chen, who did not continue bidding, asked aggrievedly.
“Continue bidding. If we don’t get this Bronze Key this time, we won’t have a chance later,” the existence of which Xiao Chen addressed as Elder Hai said in a low voice.
“150,000.” Upon hearing this, Xiao Chen’s face turned ruthless and he directly made a counter bid.
As soon as Xiao Chen shouted the price, the entire venue erupted.
What kind of ruthless person was this? He actually dared to counter bid Sky VIP Room Number 1. Impressive, awesome!
It had to be said that Xiao Chen’s bid instantly changed the atmosphere of the auction hall..
