Chapter 637 Rising Violently to 200 Million!
Everyone was watching.
“Patter, patter, patter…”
The footsteps of the staff came from behind the auction stage.
All the people present were staring at the auction stage, waiting for Guru Sword to appear!
In today’s Wulin, it was just like a legend.
Almost 90% of people in Wulin had never seen Guru Sword. Even the new-generation martial arts practitioners thought that it was just a legend and did not exist at all.
But now, Guru Sword came into the world!
Without a guru, how could there be Guru Sword?
In the whole world, only a sword with a guru’s breath could be called Guru Sword. So, a guru must carry it for a long time.
In the present Wulin, it was difficult to see a guru. Therefore, one could imagine how rare a guru sword was!
Undoubtedly, the primary purpose of all the people present, whether those who participated in the auction or not, today was to see Guru Sword!
“Let’s welcome the last item for today’s auction.”
On the auction stage, the host stood aside, made a gesture of “please” and shouted to all the audience, “Guru Sword!”
There was a deathly hush!
“Patter, patter, patter.”
A staff member walked out from backstage and onto the auction stage.
He carried a gold-inlaid jade tray, which was covered with a piece of golden cloth embroidered with dragons.
In Chic Cloud Pavilion, the tray that stored items was the most obvious measure of the auction value!
Most auction items were held by the iron tray.
A medium-level auction item, such as a fifth-class, sixth-class, and seventh-class weapon, was carried by a copper tray.
A high-level item, such as an eighth-class weapon, would be held by a sandalwood tray.
The best item in the auction house was a gold-inlaid jade tray.
“Why is it still covered?”
“I’ve heard that this gold-inlaid jade tray has appeared less than ten times since the establishment of Chic Cloud Pavilion.”
“So awesome?”
“I remember that the last time a gold-inlaid jade tray appeared, it was an auction of the Imperial Jade Seal. Although it was an auction, the holder at that time only took the opportunity to give it to the government through the auction. Although many big forces wanted it at that time, the government directly bid 100 million as soon as the Imperial Jade Seal appeared. The other forces did not dare to compete with the government. In the end, the Imperial Jade Seal was also sold at 100 million.”
“Isn’t it courting death to compete with the government? Who would be so stupid?”
“After all, it’s the Imperial Jade Seal. Such valuable treasures must be taken back by the government. I just don’t know whether the government will still take part in the auction of Guru Sword and whether other forces dare to compete with the Government!”
“Let’s wait and see. The show is coming soon.”
The whispers of the people around could be heard.
“Master, if the government is really interested in Guru Sword, what should we do?” He Gaoming whispered.
“It won’t.”
Fang Qiu immediately shook his head. Although he was not from the government, it had something to do with the government. Moreover, if the government really wanted it, the Four Great Families would definitely not come.
Fang Qiu speculated that the government only sent people to take a look. If they could get it, so be it. After all, although there were few guru swords, it had little influence on the strength of the government.
“Why?”
He Gaoming wanted to know why Fang Qiu was so confident.
“The Four Great Families haven’t taken action yet, and their aim is to wait for Guru Sword. If the government is determined to take away Guru Sword, the Four Great Families will fight fiercely for seventh-class and eighth-class weapons.” Fang Qiu said.
“That seems to be the case.”
He Gaoming grinned and said, “I heard that the price of each item on the gold-inlaid jade tray is more than 100 million. The lowest price seems to be 100 million.”
“Oh?”
Fang Qiu was surprised. “So high?”
A hundred million?
Could Guru Sword be sold for 100 million?
On the auction stage.
After the staff left, the auctioneer walked to the front of the exhibition stand.
“This item is the final item of this auction. It’s a Guru Sword that hasn’t been seen in Wulin for a thousand years!”
“It’s made of thousand-piece steel, and the body of the sword is three feet long. It’s called Chu Sword!”
Many people’s eyes lit up.
Although it was not easy to carry the Chu sword, it was very powerful. Its style was particularly attractive.
“Swoosh!”
When the introduction was finished, the auctioneer waved his hand and pulled off the golden cloth covering the gold-inlaid jade tray.
All the people fixed their eyes on it.
Under the golden cloth, there was a golden lotus on the gold-inlaid jade tray. There was a three-feet-long sword on top of the lotus.
The sword was three feet long and a palm wide. Its hilt was a column, and its body was pitch-dark. There were a thousand forging lines on it.
At a glance, it looked a little ordinary.
However, it was this ordinary sword that attracted everyone’s attention, including the Grand Master.
As the sword appeared, all the Martial Superiors present could clearly feel the surging energy in the air.
“Because Guru Sword has never appeared in Wulin, and there are not many records about it. So let me introduce it to you first.”
The auctioneer stood in front of Guru Sword and said, “In addition to possessing guru’s breath, this sword also has the special effect of attracting the Qi of Heaven and Earth. I’m sure all the guests can feel that the Qi of Heaven and Earth around is converging on it. That is to say, with this sword, you can keep yourself in a place full of Qi of Heaven and Earth.”
Hearing that, the audience burst into an uproar.
“What the f*ck? It’s so awesome!”
“It’s worthy of being a guru sword. It can attract the Qi of Heaven and Earth.”
“It doesn’t make any difference in one day or two days. What if one carries Guru Sword for a month or a year?”
“This is simply a super machine used to cultivate Martial Superiors. If a top martial arts practitioner gets Guru Sword, he would be surrounded by Qi of Heaven and Earth all the time. Wouldn’t it be easy for him to break through and become a Martial Superior?”
“Not only for martial arts practitioners but also for eighth-class and ninth-class masters, it has unusually large benefits.”
“A Guru Sword can absolutely cultivate a large force!”
At this moment, countless eighth-class and ninth-class Martial Superiors, who were hidden in the auction house, couldn’t help but feel excited.
The eyes of the members of the Four Great Families also lit up.
Even the representatives of the government also raised the number plate, waiting for the auctioneer to announce the base price!
They had thought that Guru Sword was just like an ordinary sword. Hearing that the function of gathering the Qi of Heaven and Earth, everyone was crazy about it!
“The base price of the Guru Sword is 80 million!”
On the auction stage, the auctioneer did not talk nonsense anymore. He directly said, “Each time, the increased price is no less than one million.”
“The bidding begins!”
The voice fell with the wooden hammer.
“Beep!”
Suddenly, a bidding sound rang out.
“100 million, No. 47, Row 1!”
Everyone immediately turned to look.
The person who made the bid was a government representative.
Strangely, no one bid for it, except for the people from the government.
“Damn, it won’t be taken by the government, will it?”
“A hundred million?”
“The government is really deep-pocketed!”
“The Four Great Families hasn’t made a move. Don’t they dare to fight for it?”
On this side.
“What the f*ck? 100 million?” He Gaoming exclaimed.
Fang Qiu didn’t expect that either.
He didn’t expect that Chic Cloud Pavilion would set the base price so high. He thought that it was already very good that the base price reached 50 million. If it was sold for 100 million, he would make a huge profit!
However, the price directly rose to 100 million at the beginning of the auction!
Fang Qiu was shocked.
On the other side.
“100 million first.”
“100 million second. Any more bid?” The auctioneer asked.
“Beep!”
At this time, another bidding sound was heard.
“110 million, No. 79, Row 11!” The auctioneer reported the number.
Hearing that, the audience burst into a hubbub.
Fang Qiu also turned to look at the seat.
A grim-looking middle-aged man was sitting there.
Fang Qiu noticed that the middle-aged man’s strength had reached ninth-class.
“It seems that he must have come here for Guru Sword. He wants to make a breakthrough by it!”
“Beep!”
“120 million, No. 25, Row 1.”
“Beep!”
“130 million, No. 37, Row 8.”
“Beep!”
“140 million, No. 59, Row 12.”
After the bidding of the person in the 11th row, the price war began to go crazy.
Many eighth-class and ninth-class experts, who had hidden in the crowd and specifically came for Guru Sword, bid for it.
The representatives of the four families couldn’t help frowning.
On this side.
“Good lord, the price that has been increased by 1 million each time has become ten million each time!” He Gaoming exclaimed.
Fang Qiu’s heart beat faster.
This was beyond his expectation.
Guru Sword, which was supposed to be worth 100 million in his heart, was bid 170 million.
What did that mean?
That was 170 million!
Wasn’t it money?
Fang Qiu was completely stunned.
If he had known that it would be like this, he wouldn’t have made sixth-class, seventh-class, and eighth-class swords. He would make a Guru Sword directly. In this way, he would get all the money he needed and have made a big profit!
On the other side.
The auction went on.
“Beep!”
“200 million, No. 48, Row 1!”
Qian Xiao took action.
When the price was raised to 170 million, he directly increased the price by 30 million. The price of Guru Sword was increased to 200 million!
“Wow…”
The audience burst into an uproar.
Everyone was shocked. In less than 3 minutes, Guru Sword with a base price of 80 million was bid to 200 million.
Most importantly, the Four Great Families had made their move!
Two hundred million was also a boundary.
Many eighth or ninth-class detached experts knew five days ago that there would be an auction of Guru Sword. Therefore, during these five days, they all tried their best to raise money. However, the time was too short, and almost no one could raise 200 million.
Qian Xiao’s move immediately eliminated a large number of eighth-class and ninth-class experts.
Even the middle-aged ninth-class expert, who was the first to compete with the government, shook his head helplessly and left after hearing the offer of the 200 million.
He knew that he had no chance.
On this side.
“Brother Qian seems to bring a lot of money.”
Zhan Lin glanced at Qian Xiao and then swiped the number plate.
“Beep!”
“210 million, No. 50, Row 1!”
“Beep!”
“220 million, No. 47, Row 1!”
Two consecutive counting sounds rang out.
The moment that should belong to the Zhan family was taken away mercilessly by the government.
