Three million five hundred thousand for a single stalk of thirty-year-old Thundershock Grass was already very high, far exceeding the value of the Thundershock Grass itself.
The Lightning Splitting Grass was not expensive, and his high price was mainly due to the low stock.
The rare materials were the most valuable, the Lightning Splitting Grass itself was the least expensive, and was not worthy of its grade. With so many people fighting over it, the price for it was outrageously high.
After being silent for a few breaths, the rest of the Vip Room s all died down.
"Three million five hundred thousand going once, three million five hundred thousand going twice. Fortunately, there was no higher price?"
The female auctioneer's gaze, like everyone's, turned towards Vip Room number three.
"Lady Qianqian, stop shouting. No one can bid higher than me, Zou Wei, so just drop the hammer!" The youngster within Vip Room number six could not help but shout out. At the same time, he revealed his name.
However, the people in the great hall were confused by what they heard. There were no large clans in Gold Sun City with a family name.
But from the other party's tone, it was clear that he had an extraordinary background. He was clearly not a descendant of an ordinary family, and definitely came from a large family clan.
"It's him!" Someone in the great hall cried out in shock as they looked at Vip Room number six.
Zou Wei, from the Wang Ning Residence's Cultivator's Clan, an outstanding disciple of the Zou Clan, not only has a high martial talent, he also has a cultivation of Eleventh Layer of Great Circles at the age of sixteen. No one in the same generation in the Wang Ning Residence could be a match for him, and he also has talent in alchemy, and was accepted as a disciple by a master alchemist.
"The only reason you have shown up here today is because you are hurrying to the Tiancheng College."
Like Zou Wei, he was also headed for the Tiancheng College. When he saw that there was going to be an auction in Gold Sun City, he came here to take a look.
Unexpectedly, he had met a peerless heaven's pride level expert in the same city. This person looked at Vip Room number 6 with a trace of admiration.
The crowd, who originally did not know Zou Wei, became dumbfounded upon hearing this.
A Zou Clan disciple from Wang Ning Manor's cultivator clan.
A sixteen year old Eleventh Layer of Great Circles practitioner.
Disciple of the Peak of Violet Mansion Stage Alchemist Master.
With three levels of status, even if it were any random level, it would be enough to crush most of them. Adding the three levels together, there probably wasn't anyone in Gold Sun City that could compare with him.
Many people looked at the eyes of Vip Room number six as if they were watching a show, wanting to see if that person would still dare to do so.
The female auctioneer did not expect a guest of Vip Room number six to be so distinguished. She felt that if a guest of Vip Room number three heard about the background of the other party, they would be too afraid to fight.
"Three million five hundred thousand. Three …"
"Four million!"
Just as the auctioneer was about to land her hammer, Vip Room Number Six's indifferent voice came out.
Countless martial artists in the hall sucked in a breath of cold air. After knowing the background of the other party, they still dared to bid. Was he really confident or was he just acting recklessly?
Within Vip Room number six, two people sat. One of them looked to be around sixty years old with a long, white beard.
This cultivator looked at the youth beside him with respect.
The youth looked to be about sixteen years old. He wore a fiery red robe and a jade crown on his head. His appearance was handsome and extraordinary.
Behind the two of them stood four guards, all of whom were Eleventh Layer of Great Circles experts.
The old cultivator said, "Young master, the price of 4 million taels is too high. Even if we increase the price and steal it away, it won't make up for the loss."
Zou Wei frowned as he looked at the old man, "Elder Hu, my master told you to follow me to help me do something, not to listen to your lecture. You have to get your position straight."
Elder Hu lowered his head, not because of the young man's argument. Zou Wei's master was his master, and Zou Wei was the young master.
If it wasn't for the fact that this young man was his young lord and he dared to mock Cultivator of Violet Mansion Stage, he would have died a long time ago.
"Four million and one hundred thousand. This is my highest price. I don't want it if it goes any higher."
Seemingly sensing that his tone was off, Zou Wei added, "That's it. I can't ask him to apologize even if the other party is Cultivator of Violet Mansion Stage."
"Four million one hundred thousand!" Zou Wei shouted again.
"Four million two hundred thousand!" Just as Zou Wei finished speaking, the voice from Vip Room number three rang out.
Zou Wei's face sank and snorted: "Hmph! That damned bastard, to actually dare to go against me, you truly deserve to die! "
At this time, Elder Hu spoke again, "Young Lord wants the Thundershock Grass, isn't that simple? Wait until the auction ends, then we can follow that brat out of the city and finish him. Isn't that already over?"
Zou Wei sneered when he heard this: "Hehe, you dare to snatch things from me, Zou Wei, I think you are tired of living. Third and Fourth Brother, go and check the other person's identity. Don't think that he's some amazing person. If he doesn't have any identity, then one of you will report to me and the other will keep an eye on him. "
"Yes sir!" Two of the four guards stepped forward, nodded in unison, and left.
Watching the two of them leave, Zou Wei coldly smiled as he glanced at Vip Room number 6: "It's best if you have some sort of identity that can scare this young master. Otherwise, you're dead for sure."
Since Zou Wei did not participate in the bidding, 4.2million silver became the highest price.
The auctioneer's sweet and gentle voice sounded again, "Four million two hundred thousand going once, four hundred thousand going twice, four hundred thousand going thrice! Congratulations to our esteemed guest at Vip Room number 6, for obtaining a stalk of Thundershock Grass for thirty years. "
After hearing the auctioneer's voice, Zou Wei's lower abdomen was on fire. He looked at her with burning greed.
"Young Master, Hundred Herbs Chamber of Commerce is different from other forces, there is a powerful expert guarding them from behind, and this auctioneer is related to that expert. If Young Master is able to woo her, and obtain the support of Hundred Herbs Chamber of Commerce, breaking through the Violet Mansion Stage and becoming a Primordial Spirit is not a problem. However, the Young Master must not use force against her. "
Seeing the look in his young master's eyes, Elder Hu hurriedly started to talk about the pros and cons, afraid that Zou Wei would be distracted by lust and use force against the female auctioneer. If that happened, not only would the Zou Clan be destroyed, even Zou Wei's master alchemist master would be doomed.
"Alright, alright, I got it. After the auction, find a chance to make a move against those bastards with Vip Room number six. Those who offended me, Zou Wei, have never been able to survive. "
Zou Wei said impatiently again with a cold voice. No one knew that he didn't care about Elder Hu's words.
However, the next moment, Zou Wei was full of energy again.
Not only him, even Wang Yu, who was at Vip Room number 3, was excited as well.
"Five Thunder Tiger Inner Core s, for sale at the same time. Experts who practice thunder-attribute martial arts, you guys are lucky. If you don't take it now, when will you?"
