Chapter Eighty-six Auction
Outside the Divine Martial Battlefield, there is a huge square. The square is surrounded by metal eggs that allow warriors to shuttle back and forth, as well as various merchants, including pharmacies, weapon shops, and even snack vendors, all sorts of things, like a bustling commercial street.
There's a saying that making money means making money from women and children. The main players in the God of War battlefield are tens of thousands of young people, each with an extraordinary background, many from wealthy families. Shrewd businessmen would not miss such an opportunity.
It's probably because the competitive atmosphere in the Divine Martial Battlefield is too oppressive, so many young people choose to gather in the outer square. Su Dong walked through the crowd and came to that commercial street, and indeed saw a very eye-catching place with a huge billboard, Chris Auction House.
Su Dong tidied up his long shirt and arrived at the main entrance of the auction house, where he was respectfully welcomed in by the attendants.
Su Dong didn't want to leave a deep impression on people, so he disguised himself as an old man. The Ice God was a person who liked to hoard goods, and even had a warehouse for small items like disguises, so changing his appearance wasn't difficult for Su Dong at all.
"Excuse me, sir, is there anything I can help you with?" asked the middle-aged man behind the counter.
Su Dongdao said: "I have a spiritual soldier I want to auction off, can you arrange it for me?"
The middle-aged man said, "To be honest with you, the items auctioned off must meet a certain level of quality. If they don't meet that standard, they can only be consigned to us for sale. I wonder what level this spiritual sword of yours is?"
Su Dong took out one of his self-made short swords and casually placed it on the counter, saying: "Ling Wu level."
"Lingwu?" The middle-aged man took the short sword in his hand, and then very skillfully pressed two fingers on the sword, releasing his own spiritual power, as if testing the short sword.
Su Dong was slightly surprised, didn't expect that even ordinary employees in the auction house had a good cultivation, Chris Auction House, really can't be underestimated.
"This week's auction just started five minutes ago, but this sword of yours is only a Lingwu-level piece, I'm afraid it won't be enough to let you participate. After all, our clients are all from the Shenwu battlefield and have very discerning eyes." The middle-aged man said habitually to Su Dong.
He was just about to persuade Su Dong to leave the short sword for sale, when he suddenly saw his face tense up, and the corner of his eye jumped violently, looking very surprised.
"Please come in, old man."
The middle-aged man's face changed quickly, and he walked out of the counter quickly, personally taking Su Dong through the hall to a tastefully decorated reception room, and ordered someone to take good care of him.
"Sir, I'm afraid I'm not in charge of this matter. Let me go and ask the manager to see you." The middle-aged man said sincerely, Su Dong nodded slightly, wondering why the man's face changed so quickly.
Watching the man leave with a somewhat tense expression, Huan Yu smiled and said: "This guy is quite discerning. Looking at how serious he is, I suppose he already knows that this spiritual sword of yours is a product of multiple spiritual energies merged together."
The clear tea brought by the buddy tastes good. Su Dong took two more sips and asked curiously, "What price do you think they will open with?"
Fantasy Rain Road: "It's hard to say, let's see how much they know. Zhù Xīng Tái is a four-spirit system, which means it can accommodate up to four casting masters working together to forge a spiritual weapon at the same time. Therefore, a sword with four spiritual properties is called a multi-system spiritual sword."
"Assuming that four casting masters with dual spiritual powers can gather, the blades forged are called high-order. The products of cooperation between four triple-spiritual-power casting masters are called super-order."
"It's easy to say, but hard to do. Where can we find four spirit-casting masters who possess three kinds of spiritual power at the same time? Moreover, their spiritual powers cannot be repeated, or it will also cause the collapse of the Casting Star Platform."
"From poly spirit soldiers to high spirit soldiers, the price will take a leap, and from poly spirit soldiers to super spirit soldiers, the price is simply sky-high!"
Su Dong nodded, and the rarity of something made it precious. As a full-spiritual power cultivator, even if the grade of his crafted sword wasn't high, it was still a relatively rare existence, which was why that person was so astonished.
……
Li Yunqian was the master of this Christie's auction house. During the weekly routine auction, Li Yunqian was observing the situation in the auction hall when he was suddenly dragged out by his subordinates, which naturally made him quite unhappy.
"What's so important? Must you call me out now?" Li Yunqian stroked his eight-shaped beard, complaining.
"The shopkeeper's, an old man is coming from the front, bringing a spiritual soldier, probably from the Gao family."
Li Yunqian was taken aback, grabbing the middle-aged man's collar and staring at him with wide eyes: "Gao Xi!? Are you certain?"
The middle-aged man carefully handed Su Dong's short sword to Li Yunqian, and as soon as Li Yunqian took it in his hand, his face changed color. Years of professional experience told him that this spiritual soldier, although ordinary in appearance and not high in grade, contained extremely strange spiritual power!
And judging from the fluctuations in spiritual energy, it's likely more than eightfold!
"Is the detector ready?" Li Yunqian asked in a low voice.
"It has started, just waiting for you to go."
"Go!"
Li Yunqian didn't care about the auction anymore and quickly walked towards the back yard of the auction house.
In the appraisal center of the auction house in the backyard, there was a mechanical device for measuring spiritual power. The device was relatively small and had only twelve crystals embedded on it.
Ice God is after all Ice God, not everyone has a super testing tool like the Frozen Throne at home, Chris Auction House is already an existence that can rival a country, and there is only one Twelve Spirit Testing Machine in the evaluation center.
It didn't take long to get the results. Within just three minutes, all twelve crystals were lit up and still flashing frantically.
Li Yunqian's eyes widened, his mouth also opened wide, and the twelve crystals flashed simultaneously, indicating that this unassuming short sword actually contained at least twelve layers of spiritual power!
This is absolutely an amazing result!
There are few casting masters with dual elemental powers, and even fewer with triple elemental powers. Those with quadruple elemental powers are extremely rare!
Could it be that this spiritual sword was forged by four rare multi-spiritual force casting masters together!?!
Four master craftsmen, who also possess rare multiple spiritual powers, with no duplication of spiritual power types and similar levels, only when all these conditions are met can this short sword be manufactured! What a stringent condition!
Li Yunqian's hand trembled slightly as he picked up the Lingbing short sword to examine it. After Su Dong's processing, the short sword looked very old and seemed to have some age on it.
A crazy idea flashed through Li Yunqian's mind, this short sword is not simple.
……
Su Dong met Li Yunqian in the reception room, and there was also a pure gold card embedded with crystal.
After introducing himself, Li Yunjian presented the gold card with both hands and said: "Master, this is the VIP gold card of our Christie's auction house. With it, from now on, no matter which Christie's auction house, we will treat you as a distinguished guest and exempt all handling fees. Please accept it."
Su Dong slightly stunned, calmly and tonelessly said: "Auction houses rely on extracting commissions, all handling fees are waived, you will lose money."
"It can't be said that way, being able to serve you is our honor. There are many things in this world that money can't buy, such as reputation. The truly good items that come from our hands are a huge boost to the reputation of our auction house." Li Yunqian said.
Su Dong nodded slightly and didn't say anything.
Li Yunqian thought for a moment and said, "Today is our weekly regular auction. It seems inappropriate to take out this treasure in such a hurry. I suggest leaving it until next week, so we can also have time to promote it and sell it at a higher price."
Su Dong slightly furrowed his brow, he disguised himself as an old man, precisely because he didn't want to show his face, if next week they hold a grand auction, with many people and prying eyes, it would be easy to reveal his true identity.
Keeping a low profile can help you live longer, Su Dong understood this principle. Besides, it was just a practice spirit soldier, and Su Dong didn't take it to heart.
"Just for today," Su Dong said calmly.
Li Yunqian was taken aback, and suddenly looked up to Su Dong's portrayal of the old man even more, it turned out that the short sword in his eyes was a rare treasure, but others didn't think much of it!
"Alright, I'll make this spiritual soldier the finale of today's auction. Although it's a bit rushed, we can't be slow either. Since you've chosen us, I suppose you need some points for the Spiritual Martial Battlefield? The starting price is set at 1,000 points. What do you think?" Li Yunqian asked.
"Alright." Su Dong nodded and said.
"Please follow me."
Li Yunqian led Su Dong to the auction center on the third floor, smiling and saying: "Because our auction house is built near the primary Lingwu battlefield, facing young customers, and young people are often more impulsive, so strange things often happen."
"For example, in the previous auction, a young warrior suddenly didn't have enough money and wanted to add his own items as collateral. We usually agree to such requests, so I must inform you that this place is not as strict as other auction houses."
Li Yunqian said as he led Su Dong to the backstage of the auction, where the auction was in full swing, with people outside making a lot of noise. Through the thick red velvet curtain, they could see what was happening on the scene.
"Generally, people outside the auction house are not allowed to come in, but you're an exception. If you have any questions, you can directly communicate with our auctioneer through the background, this treatment is not available to others." Li Yun said humbly.
In his eyes, Su Dong was not a master founder, but he had a great relationship with the master founder, so his attitude was very good. No way, the founder belongs to the super skill, and wherever he goes, he is particularly welcome.
Su Dong looked out through the gap in the curtain and suddenly found a familiar face among the bidders, it was Xiao Shu Diaozi Hua Ying Yue.
After seeing Huayingyue's eyes, Su Dong couldn't help but frown. In just a short span of over ten days without seeing her, Huayingyue's small face had undergone a drastic change!
PS: Yesterday, Raindrop Brother just said that the update was not enough to watch and wanted Jiǔér to add more. As a result, today Jiǔér dropped the chain, I'm really sorry to brother.
No choice, writing doesn't seem like other jobs, it consumes a lot of brain power. Today Jiǔér's head isn't very bright, there are some problems with the plot, from morning till night, only these were written, and just the deleted words exceeded 5,000 characters.
I'll make it up to you all tomorrow, please forgive me.
