Ye Lin looked around and saw a middle-aged man smiling in a corner.
"Ten Low-Grade Spirit Stones."
To save trouble, Ye Lin directly quoted the price. Generally, a Yellow Rank High Grade treasure costs around fifteen Low-Grade Spirit Stones, so ten Low-Grade Spirit Stones was already the highest price.
Moreover, this bamboo was useless to most people.
As expected, when the middle-aged man saw this, a look of regret flashed across his Face, and he did not bid again.
"Alright, then this treasure belongs to this Fellow Daoist. Fellow Daoist can come to exchange for it after the auction ends."
After Pinru finished speaking, she came to the third red cloth and uncovered it without hesitation.
On a plate, an ancient book was prominently displayed.
"This is the third treasure, and also our auction house's welcoming gift for establishing ourselves within a thousand miles: a Profound Rank Low-Grade Mental Martial Skill."
As soon as Pinru finished speaking, the entire auction immediately erupted, with countless people standing up, looking in disbelief at the ancient book in the center of the stage.
No matter how eager they were, no one dared to act rashly. It was said that the Dawn Auction House came from a region thousands of miles away, and its exact strength was unknown. In any case, anyone who dared to provoke it had died.
"One Mid-Grade Spirit Stone."
"Three Mid-Grade Spirit Stones."
Since the Mental Martial Skill appeared, the entire auction house immediately became a frenzy, with countless people spending all their family wealth, as Mental Martial Skills were simply too precious.
Especially a Profound Rank Low-Grade one.
In just a few minutes, the Mental Martial Skill had already been pushed to twenty Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, and despite this, some people were still continuously increasing their bids, looking as if they would not give up until they obtained it.
Even the important figures in the private rooms could not sit still and began to bid.
Ye Lin, however, sat calmly in his original spot, looking indifferent. His goal was that scroll; everything else had nothing to do with him.
If he had seen this Mental Martial Skill before, he might have been tempted, but now, his emotions were completely unmoved.
A few minutes passed, and the voices in the venue gradually quieted down, because the price had already risen to an extremely terrifying stage: forty Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.
This price, no exaggeration, was enough to buy a Profound Rank High-Grade Martial Skill.
Ultimately, the price settled at fifty-one Mid-Grade Spirit Stones and was acquired by someone from the Saint King Sect.
"Alright, thank you all for your support. This auction concludes here. Please look forward to the next auction."
Pinru said with a smile, while Ye Lin frowned. Gone? How could that be? What was on the panel could not be wrong.
At this moment, a woman walked up from below the stage and whispered a few words into Pinru's ear, then took out a tattered scroll.
"Excuse me, Fellow Daoists, there is still one item now, which is the scroll in my hand. It's just an ordinary scroll. The starting bid is one Low-Grade Spirit Stone."
Hearing that it was just an ordinary scroll, everyone left. Was such a thing even worth one Low-Grade Spirit Stone? Who had gone crazy?
"Since no one wants it, give it to me."
Seeing this, Ye Lin said. As soon as he finished speaking, a voice came from a private room upstairs.
"Two Low-Grade Spirit Stones, I'll take it."
Hearing this, Ye Lin looked up. Why did this voice sound so familiar?
In the private room, Wang Gang stood by the window, looking at Ye Lin with interest. This condescending view gave him great satisfaction.
No matter how strong he was, what could he do? Wasn't I still standing above him?
"You want the scroll? I just won't give it to you."
Wang Gang smiled broadly.
"Three Low-Grade Spirit Stones."
"Four Low-Grade Spirit Stones."
For a moment, the dispute between the two attracted the attention of the surrounding Cultivators. After a brief analysis, everyone around quickly confirmed their identities.
A dispute between two direct disciples of the Qingyun Sect—this was an interesting show.
"Three Mid-Grade Spirit Stones."
Ye Lin said in a deep voice, then looked up at Wang Gang.
Wang Gang, at this moment, was full of hesitation. Earlier, he just wanted to disgust Ye Lin, but now seeing everyone around staring at him, he felt uncomfortable.
Spending so many Spirit Stones for a broken scroll was not worth it.
"Consider yourself ruthless. It's just a broken scroll. If you want it, I'll give it to you."
Wang Gang gritted his teeth and said, then flicked his sleeve and walked into the private room.
Ye Lin, however, looked at the panel in front of him with a smile. I can never lose.
Name: Wang Gang
Cultivation: Foundation Establishment Stage Late Phase
Fate: Blue
Fate Reason: 【Extraordinarily Intelligent】
Destiny: Stops at Foundation Establishment Peak. In a great battle one year later, he is devoured by a Golden Core Stage evil demon.
Recent Opportunity: In Tiger Mountain, he searches for the Tiger King, ultimately slays the Tiger King, and finds a Profound Rank Low-Grade Heaven-Reaching Talisman in the Tiger King's belly. After activation, it allows instant teleportation for a thousand meters.
【Extraordinarily Intelligent】: You are very smart. Your powerful wisdom often allows you to turn danger into safety.
Very good, I'll gladly accept your Opportunity.
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist."
Pinru's Face was like peach blossoms. This broken scroll was worthless, but now it had been bid up to three Mid-Grade Spirit Stones. The commission from it was enough to make her mouth water.
"Tsk, after all, they are still young people. For the sake of Face, they spent three Mid-Grade Spirit Stones to buy a broken scroll."
"No wonder they're direct disciples of the Qingyun Sect; they have too much money."
Seeing this, the surrounding people shook their heads. Young people, ah, they were still too young, spending such a high price just to win an argument.
He glanced at the people around him, and panels appeared before his eyes. Only a handful of people had Opportunities, and those Opportunities were not worth his attention at all.
What a single Low-Grade Spirit Stone, what a piece of broken copper and iron.
But how could they know that inside this broken scroll, there was actually a Profound Rank Middle Grade Martial Skill? Not to mention three Mid-Grade Spirit Stones, even ten Mid-Grade Spirit Stones couldn't buy it.
Ye Lin stepped to the backstage, which was the exchange area. Money in one hand, goods in the other.
"Fellow Daoist, two items in total. Please take them."
Pinru smiled, holding the half-piece of bamboo and the scroll, and handed them to Ye Lin.
Ye Lin took out the corresponding Spirit Stones and handed them to her.
"Fellow Daoist, thank you for helping me out today."
Pinru smiled sweetly at Ye Lin.
"It's nothing, just a small effort, and this thing is also a bit useful to me."
Ye Lin twirled the half-piece of bamboo in his hand and shook his head indifferently.
"Fellow Daoist, please take this jade talisman. If you participate in an auction held by the Dawn Auction House again in the future, you can get a ten percent discount."
Looking at the jade talisman Pinru handed over, Ye Lin reached out and took it.
"Thank you."
Looking at Ye Lin's back, Pinru was full of doubt. She was very confident in her charm; most Cultivators would be eager to talk to her more.
But this Ye Lin didn't even look at her. He was truly a strange person.
"This trip was a huge gain. Tiger King of Tiger Mountain, huh?"
Walking out of Tianshui City, Ye Lin took out a map from his space ring and slowly unfolded it, searching for the location of Tiger Mountain.
It had to be said that the map Master gave him was truly too detailed. Any famous place would be marked.
And Tiger Mountain was also marked by Master. The Tiger King in Tiger Mountain had the strength of the Foundation Establishment Stage Late Phase.
"To Tiger Mountain, to slay the Tiger King."
With that, Ye Lin put away the map, stepped on his Flying Sword, and flew into the distance.
After several hours of travel, Ye Lin followed the map to Tiger Mountain.
He took out the map and compared it several times before confirming that the large mountain in front of him was indeed Tiger Mountain.
