章節 13: Wind Scroll Decision
With Xiao Zhan out of the competition, the two bottles of Foundation Establishment Elixir were respectively taken by Jia Lie Bi and Ao Ba Pa at the high price of thirty-eight thousand gold coins each.
Witnessing this scene, Ya Fei's eyes showed a bit of curiosity as she looked at Xiao Feng.
Earlier, Ya Fei's attention was mainly focused on the three patriarchs, so she naturally noticed that it was after Xiao Feng had a quiet conversation with Xiao Zhan that he decided to stop bidding.
Ya Fei couldn't help but wonder what Xiao Feng had said to Xiao Zhan.
Moreover, Xiao Feng's victory over Nalan Yanran and the acquisition of two fourth-grade pills had already spread widely in Wu Tan City, easily arousing others' curiosity.
Fortunately, Ya Fei was professional enough to quickly suppress her curiosity and said with a smile, "The next item up for auction is the highlight of today's auction."
With these words, Ya Fei bent slightly and retrieved a silver tray from beneath the auction stage. On the tray was a simple, ancient-looking green scroll.
Under the light, the scroll emitted a faint green glow, appearing extraordinarily mysterious.
With a smile, Ya Fei began, "This scroll contains a high-level Black-class wind attribute technique—Wind Scroll Decision!"
"…"
The entire auction hall fell silent, so quiet that you could hear a pin drop!
Not to mention Wu Tan City, even in the entire Jia Ma Empire, a high-level Black-class technique like Wind Scroll Decision was considered top-tier.
Recovering from their shock, everyone in the hall cast greedy and fervent glances at the scroll, even forgetting to admire Ya Fei's long legs.
Xiao Yan couldn't help but mutter to himself, "A high-level Black-class technique? No wonder the three patriarchs are here."
"What's so special about a mere high-level Black-class technique?"
Sensing Yao Lao's disdainful tone, Xiao Yan rolled his eyes and then showed a cunning smile, whispering softly, "Teacher, since you look down on such techniques, can you show me some heaven-class techniques to broaden my horizons?"
"Get lost!"
Yao Lao retorted grumpily, "Do you think heaven-class techniques are as common as cabbages? Even a Dou Venerate would find it nearly impossible to obtain one!"
"What about earth-class techniques then?"
Ignoring Yao Lao's grumbling, Xiao Yan asked tentatively, "Since you disdain high-level Black-class techniques, you must have plenty of earth-class techniques, right? How about giving me a wind attribute earth-class technique to broaden my horizons?"
"Wind attribute earth-class technique? You just want to broaden your horizons? You clearly want to give it to that little lunatic. You sell my stuff like it's not a big deal!"
Feeling embarrassed after Yao Lao exposed his true intentions, Xiao Yan scratched his nose and said, "Teacher, you have seen how well my third brother treats me, right? Without his protection, I would have had a miserable time in the Xiao family all these years. Now that I can finally help him, I can't just pretend I didn't see anything, right? And to some extent, your early awakening is also thanks to my third brother. If he hadn't secretly shared his cultivation resources with me, I wouldn't have had enough Dou Qi to offer you."
"You sly kid, who taught you to argue with logic so well."
Yao Lao said with a pleased expression, "But you do have a point. Fortunately, I do have a suitable technique for that little lunatic."
If it were techniques of other attributes, Yao Lao might not have any suitable earth-class techniques, but fire and wind attribute techniques were exceptions.
As the "number one alchemist in Dou Qi Continent," Yao Lao's cultivation techniques were at least high-level earth-class fire attribute techniques.
As for wind attribute earth-class techniques and Dou Skills, they were exceptions because Yao Lao had a close friend, the renowned Wind Venerable.
Sometimes, when Yao Lao refined pills for others, he would occasionally accept wind attribute techniques and Dou Skills as payment and then pass them on to Wind Venerable.
As a result, Yao Lao had quite a few copies of wind attribute techniques and Dou Skills.
Meanwhile, on the auction stage, Ya Fei continued with a smile, "The starting bid for this Wind Scroll Decision is two hundred thousand gold coins, with each increment no less than one hundred gold coins. Please start bidding!"
"…"
The hall fell silent again.
Even Xiao Zhan and the others twitched at the high starting price, which was equivalent to the Xiao family's two-year profit.
Seeing the awkward silence, Ya Fei's smile remained unchanged. She knew the allure of such a high-level Black-class technique.
"Two hundred and ten thousand!"
As expected, it wasn't long before a middle-aged man with a bald head couldn't resist starting the bidding.
Xiao Feng glanced at the man and immediately recognized him.
That bald man was a well-known weapon tycoon in Wu Tan City. Although his family's influence was not as strong as the three major families, he was still a significant figure in the city.
"Two hundred and twenty thousand!"
"Two hundred and thirty thousand!"
"Two hundred and forty thousand…"
With the bald man's bid, the quiet atmosphere in the auction hall broke, and various forces began competing fiercely.
The price of Wind Scroll Decision quickly soared to four hundred thousand gold coins.
When the bidding surpassed the four hundred thousand mark, only the three patriarchs were still competing.
"Four hundred and thirty thousand gold coins!"
"Four hundred and forty thousand gold coins!"
"Four hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!"
Facing Ao Ba Pa's relentless bidding, Xiao Zhan and Jia Lie Bi followed suit without hesitation, both determined to win.
"You win."
Seeing this, Ao Ba Pa shook his head helplessly and gave up bidding.
Among the three major families in Wu Tan City, the Ao Ba family had the weakest overall strength. Spending over four hundred thousand gold coins would plunge the family into an economic crisis.
Moreover, Ao Ba Pa's Dou Qi attribute was not wind, so even if he won the Wind Scroll Decision, he wouldn't be able to utilize its full potential quickly. Therefore, there was no need to compete further.
Seeing Ao Ba Pa withdraw, Jia Lie Bi glanced at Xiao Zhan and shouted viciously, "Five hundred thousand gold coins!"
"Five hundred and ten thousand gold coins!"
Xiao Zhan ignored Jia Lie Bi's provocative gaze and calmly raised his bid.
"…"
Jia Lie Bi's face stiffened slightly, and he clenched his fists, gritting his teeth as he shouted, "Five hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!"
