1427: The First Auction (2) 1427: The First Auction (2) Everyone was looking startled that a man from the bronze section had actually made a bid for the ‘heaven-step’ divine sword and they were all examining Ji Yuan.
What they saw was a young looking man who had golden eyes and he looked like a young cultivator even by the standards of cultivators.
In order to bee a young looking cultivator, this young man must be quite a genius cultivator with a good background or he had some lucky occurrences.
In the Celestial Realm, most golden celestials were actually middle looking age as they had bee a 4th realm cultivator when they were almost 30 or even later.
Even if they could bee a 4th realm cultivator by the age of 30, this did not mean that they could bee a 5th realm cultivator in under 200 years even though their age would slow down by 10 times.
But Ji Yuan was young looking by the standards of most of the cultivators and there were plenty of flushed maidens in the great hall of the auction hall that were looking at his pretty face.
And Ji Yuan was enjoying the attention that he had received from all of them as he became the center of attention.
But of course, most of the cultivators were also looking with great disdain at his ragged and poor robe that he was wearing.
However to Ji Yuan, he was too thick skinned to even think about this as he began to grin at the crowd.
In one of the 20 VIP rooms, Ji Yuan’s maidens were astonished that Ji Yuan had actually placed a bid for a divine sword instead of waiting for the saint robe to be auctioned.
Little Princess said with great astonishment to the other maidens, “This is only the first auction.
Why is that he is wasting his spirit stones like this?” The Lovely Empress shook her fists unhappily, “I bet that he must be trying to get the attention of that Maiden Ji Yichi and to impress all the maidens in this hall!” Tang Manni immediately said weakly, “I am sure that Master Ji Yuan isn’t that such of a man.” Even Xu Yifei was nodding, “That’s right.
Master Ji Yuan is an honorable man.
He must have his own purposes.” “That’s right!
Beluga must have appraised a worth in this divine sword,” Ding Jie’Er said immediately after Xu Yifei.
The Smiling Divine Maiden folded her arms as she hummed coldly, “Hmph!
He is just trying to show off his wealth.
I may not know this little rascal for very long but he is truly a little rascal…” But when she had said that, there was a beautiful flush in her countenance; it was because she had suddenly recalled how wild Ji Yuan had been when they were copulating together.
Luckily for her, her flushes were mistaken as her angry flushes and were unnoticed by the other maidens.
Strangely, even Yang Mi, Yu Jingjing and Zhi Jiugong were flushing slightly when they had heard Ji Yuan being called a little rascal; they were also thinking the same as the Smiling Divine Maiden Chu Lixue.
The Immortal Fairy Lucia suddenly said to Ding Xiaoxiao, “What do you think?” Ding Xiaoxiao raised her head slightly as she quietly said, “This divine sword is indeed a special divine sword.” All the other maidens: ???
– – – Qiao Shaodong’s scholarly face had suddenly bee angry and he began to stare furiously in the direction of Ji Yuan and there was even a killing malevolent.
Many of the cultivators were shivering with fear, especially the cultivators that were around Ji Yuan as the killing intentions of the Great Saint Qiao Shaodong began to manifest upon Ji Yuan.
But Ji Yuan simply laughed off the killing intentions as he looked in the direction of the Great Saint Qiao Shandong, “If you don’t want to bid further, then this divine sword is mine.” Qiao Shandong hummed coldly, “650 million!” Again, there were great gasps and mutterings from the thousands of cultivators.
But Ji Yuan stunned and silenced the crowd immediately by saying, “700 million!” This time round, the gasps and mutterings were even more loudly!
700 million high grade spirit stones for a heaven-step divine sword was unheard of!
Moreover, there was no promise that it would be a celestial-step sword too as divine swords were extremely difficult to divine harmonize even if the cultivator was a genius sword cultivator.
Qiao Shaodong: … Qiao Shaodong: … Qiao Shaodong: … This time round, Qiao Shaodong began to stand up from his splendid seat and he was pointing his fan angrily in the direction of Ji Yuan, “Everyone!
I strongly suspect that the cultivator over there is just messing up the auction and he doesn’t even have the spirit stones to bid for this divine sword!” When he had said that, it had actually echoed the thoughts of the many cultivators in this place and they were all cursing loudly that a poor cultivator in the bronze section would not possibly be able to afford it.
Moreover, Ji Yuan was looking really poor too in his ragged robe.
While thousands of cultivators were mocking and cursing Ji Yuan, he was actually not bothered by it and he was frowning for a different reason; he was thinking that since he had stirred up such a motion, where the heck were his maidens?
Xiang Li giggled to Ji Yuan when she saw that he was looking around with his divine sense: Big Brother, surely you are not thinking of being a gigolo and looking for your maidens to pay for your tabs?
Ji Yuan roared with great laughter in his inner spiritual sea: Do I look like the sort of man that will eat white rice?
And never call me a gigolo!
I am rich now!
Anyang rolled her eyes as she pointed out: May I remind you that your black diamond card is from Maiden Yu Jingjing and it does not belong to you.
Moreover, the limit in your black diamond card is actually from the thousands of cultivators that have surrendered…” But Ji Yuan was no longer listening because he had a bad habit and that was to filter out the things that he did not want to know.
Luckily for him, Qiao Shaodong had once again spoken out angrily.
“I demand that we check his ability to bid for this divine sword before we continue with this auction!” Ji Yichi was smiling bitterly as she looked in the direction of Ji Yuan, “Do you have the ability to folk 700 million spirit stones?
Do you know how vast this amount is?” To be able to afford this much spirit stones, would mean that Ji Yuan belonged to the super rich league.
Ji Yuan chuckled aloud, “Of course I can afford it.
You know that I am the Holy Cultivation Emperor Ji Yuan.
Haha…” But when he had said that, he was met with ridicules and mocking from the thousands of cultivators; it was because none of them believed that he was the Holy Cultivation Emperor.
The Heaven Destiny Old Man covered half of his face as he muttered next to Ji Yuan, “Are you trying to bring attention to me?
You are only embarrassing yourself…” Ji Yuan laughed as he whispered back, “Then sit far, far away from me.
Haha…” The truth was that Ji Yuan had left the victory banquet in a hurry so that he could e to the Neko Trading City and therefore there were no cultivators that had recognized him in this place.
As a matter of fact, the victory banquet was still on-going at this moment because everyone had thought that Ji Yuan had left to attend to something urgently such as conducting an investigation of the crimes of the surrendered cultivators.
But the truth was that Yu Jingjing and the other maidens had arranged for the victory banquet to take place in the last minute to coincide with the same timing as this auction so that she could lure away the richer cultivators in order for Ji Yuan to easily bid for the saint robe.
The reason why, was that Ji Yuan was going to the Ancient Battleground of the Fallen Gods soon and they had to equip him with some profound treasures to protect him from the other powerful immortal cultivators.
Ji Yichi said coolly, “Very well then, I need to examine your ability to bid for this auction.” Ji Yuan grinned as he immediately flashed out his black diamond card, “Do you know what this is?” When he had flashed his black diamond card, many cultivators were gasping with astonishment.
“Isn’t this a black diamond card?
I’ve heard that only 10 such cards existed.
How is it possible for him to have such a card?” Qiao Shandong appeared to be startled too; even for him, he was not entitled to such a card.
The holder of such a card also had a prestigious status too and was entitled to a 20% discount too.
He frowned, “How dare you flash us a fake card!” When he had said that, many of the cultivators began to laugh jovially because they were all thinking the same.
Ji Yuchi said quietly to Ji Yuan, “This cultivator here, if this card is a fake, then you ought to know how grave your punishments will be for messing with this auction.” Ji Yuan grinned, “This cultivator’s name is Ji Yuan and I am also the Holy…” Ji Yichi interrupted him, “Enough of your nonsense.
I will examine your black diamond card personally.”
