They looked at each other, and in each other's eyes they saw a hint of horror and... a desire to retreat.
Are you kidding me?
Five hundred thousand gold soul coins to buy a men's special medicine.
Although they have money, this is not how they spend it! It has far exceeded their expectations.
More importantly, it's about people who dare to sit in the number one VIP box at the Tiandou Auction House and speak in this tone.
Anyone with a brain knows that these are definitely big shots they can't afford to mess with.
Wouldn't it be foolish to offend someone you can't afford to mess with over something so trivial?
In an instant, the once lively bidding scene cooled down.
No one spoke again.
The auctioneer, standing on the stage, was also taken aback for a moment.
His face immediately lit up with ecstatic joy.
He knew that the main culprit for tonight had finally made his move.
"Five hundred thousand! The guest in VIP room number one has bid five hundred thousand gold soul coins!"
"Are there any higher ones?!"
"Five hundred thousand per time!"
"Five hundred thousand twice!"
The auctioneer's voice echoed in the quiet hall.
However, no one dared to say another word.
"Five hundred thousand three times!"
"Congratulations to the guest in VIP Room Number One for successfully bidding on the first piece of ancient whale glue!"
The auctioneer brought down the gavel and beamed with joy.
The very first item sold for a high price of 500,000, which is definitely a great start!
The audience below the stage let out a sigh of regret.
Su Xin sat in the corner, watching this scene with a hint of amusement in his eyes.
"interesting."
He could sense that there were several people sitting in that VIP box.
Two of these auras were particularly powerful.
One of them had a soul power of around level 90 and a cold aura; he was probably a Title Douluo.
The other one, although his soul power is not strong.
But he carried an air of authority and dignity that suggested he was the "important person" these nobles were talking about.
It seems I'll have to put in some effort to get my hands on this whale glue tonight.
However, Su Xin didn't care.
He actually found it more interesting this way.
It's no fun if it's too easy to succeed.
Chapter 72 The Inhuman Prince Xuexing
The first piece of whale glue was auctioned off in VIP room number one for a sky-high price of 500,000 gold soul coins.
Soon, the second piece of the ancient whale glue was also brought out.
"The second piece of ancient whale glue is almost the same quality as the first one!"
"Starting price, also 100,000 gold soul coins! Bidding begins now!"
The auctioneer's voice rang out again.
However, this time, the atmosphere in the audience seemed a bit strange.
Having learned from the previous experience, the nobles who were initially enthusiastic have now become somewhat hesitant.
They looked at each other, and for a moment no one dared to be the first to bid.
Everyone knows that the important figure in room number one is obviously after this batch of whale glue.
If we were to go up and bid again, wouldn't that be blatantly going against them?
Why bother if you end up not only failing to get the items but also causing a lot of trouble?
The scene was very embarrassing.
The auctioneer stood on the stage, somewhat helpless.
He hadn't expected the guest in room number one to be so domineering.
He stunned everyone right from the start.
If no one bids anymore, how can he raise the price and earn commission?
Just as the auctioneer was about to speak and liven up the atmosphere...
Finally, someone in the audience mustered up the courage to raise their sign.
"I...I'll offer 110,000."
He was a young nobleman who looked rather young. It was probably his first time at such an event, and he didn't know the proper etiquette.
When he made his offer, those around him cast sympathetic glances at him.
He just finished speaking.
In the second-floor private room number one, that languid voice rang out again.
"Six hundred thousand."
The young nobleman who had just made the bid nearly coughed up blood when he heard the offer.
He stared wide-eyed at the private room on the second floor, his face showing an expression as if he had seen a ghost.
Six... six hundred thousand?!
I only added 10,000, and the other party immediately added nearly 500,000?!
Is this an auction?
This is fucking humiliating!
The young nobleman's face instantly turned a deep liver color.
He felt like everyone around him was looking at him as if he were a fool.
An unprecedented sense of humiliation welled up in my heart.
He wanted to get angry and yell at people.
But when he thought about the other person's identity, he forced himself to suppress his anger.
With a flushed face, he silently put down the sign in his hand, wishing he could disappear into a crack in the ground.
"Six hundred thousand! The guest in VIP room number one has bid six hundred thousand!"
"Is there any higher one?"
The auctioneer shouted at the top of his lungs, but inside he was overjoyed.
Although the process was a bit complicated, as long as the price went up, it was fine!
The result is naturally no surprise.
The second piece of whale glue was auctioned off again in VIP room number one for 600,000 gold soul coins.
The third piece, the fourth piece, the fifth piece...
The entire auction practically became a personal performance show in VIP room number one.
Regardless of the starting price or whether any fools try to sabotage the bidding process.
The final result is the same.
As soon as the voice from room number one rings out, all the competition will vanish instantly.
Moreover, each of his bids was 100,000 more gold soul coins than the last.
From the initial 500,000, to 600,000, 700,000...
By the time the eighth piece of whale glue was obtained, the price had soared to 1.2 million gold soul coins!
This number has left 99% of the people present feeling suffocated.
The look in their eyes as they gazed at the private room on the second floor had changed from dissatisfaction and jealousy to pure awe and fear.
This isn't just being rich; it's burning money like paper!
In the entire Tiandou City, there are very few people with such wealth and courage.
The nobles sitting next to Su Xin finally realized who the guest in room number one was.
"My God... Could this be Prince Snowstar?"
"Besides him, I can't think of anyone else who would dare to act like this in Heaven Dou City!"
"It must be Prince Xuexing! Only he would need so much whale glue...hehe, to replenish his strength."
"Shh! Keep your voice down! Are you out of your mind?! How dare you talk about His Highness the Prince behind his back!"
The group whispered among themselves, their faces filled with fear.
Su Xin heard every word of their conversation and a slight smile appeared on his lips.
The younger brother of Emperor Xueye?
A figure second only to the emperor in the Heaven Dou Empire?
No wonder they're so arrogant and domineering.
