“The auction will now begin officially. The Cheng’s is providing 6 sharesof mystical water, each share is 2 cubic liters. Starting bid is 50 mysticalstones!”

As soon as he finished talked, the grumbling from the attendees startedagain!

“Why is it only six shares? And only 2 cubic liters a share? How can wecompete for that?”

“The starting bid is 50 mystical stones? How can we compete with thosefrom prominent families? This is too difficult!”

“That’s not enough. Didn’t you prepare anything for us with noaffiliation?”

“It looks like we won’t be getting any mystical water!”

“…..”

The unaffiliated individuals weren’t the only ones that weredisgruntled, even those from the large families weren’t looking much happier.In addition to the Top Nine Sects, there were also the Top Seven Families. Yetthe Cheng’s were only providing six shares of water, that would certain createsome issues.

At this very moment, everybody turned to look at Cheng Biyuan. All ofthem asking him about it wordlessly.

Of course Cheng Biyuan got the meaning of the looks but he could onlylaughed bitterly on the inside, “The amount was not a decision of mine. All thequantities today were determined by my daughter!”

Ugh!

Everybody was speechless. Once again it was the mysterious,hard-to-encounter Cheng Xiao Xiao again!

KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK! KNOCK!

Old Man Ying banged the gavel against the wooden board again. Piercinglook coming from his eyes, his body filled with qi that rolled out inwaves. A strong invisible force made put pressure on everyone’s breathing.Inside the canopy quieted down.

“If you want to buy anything, speak with your resources.Otherwise, get the hell out!” Old Man Ying was very being very aggressive. Hedidn’t care for these people and was starting to get quite annoyed with all theinterruptions.

Everybody who were getting goosebumps dare not speak anymore.One by one they quieted down.

“Hrm!” Hrmphed Old Man Ying disdainfully. “Okay, starting thebidding of the first share of mystical water!”

“Sixty mystical stones!”

“Sixty-five mystical stones!”

“Eighty mystical stones!”

“One hundred mystical stones!”

“……”

“Two hundred fifty mystical stones!”

“Two hundred sixty mystical stones!”

“…..”

“Three hundred mystical stones!”

Two cubic liters of mystical water had already reached threehundred mystical stones, definitely a high price!

Everybody was aware that this price was a bit on the high sidebut what choices to they have? There were so many attendees and the Cheng’swere only selling six shares, not remotely enough for everyone.

“Three hundred mystical stones. Anyone other bidders?” askedOld Man Ying coldly.

“……”

It was dead silent in the canopy. People were hesitant to bidhigher. If they continue with the trend, they worried that the remaining fiveshares would be even more expensive.

BANG!

One more smack with the gavel and Old Man Ying said, “Firstportion of mystical water sold to Huashan Sect!”

As he was still talking, he didn’t even look up when hecasually tossed over a bamboo stick, which landed squarely in front of ElderQuan.

There were writings on the tiny bamboo stick – “Purchase 2liters of mystical water”.

The bamboo stick signified their approval to buy from the Cheng’s.Everybody was amazed by the details of the Cheng’s.

It wouldn’t be easy even if someone wanted to wreck havoc.

“Okay, coming up is the second portion of mystical water.Starting at fifty mystical stones like the last one. Bidding begin!”

“Seventy mystical stones!”

“Eighty mystical stones!”

“One hundred mystical stones!”

“……”

“Two hundred and ten mystical stones!”

“Two hundred and twenty mystical stones!”

“…….”

“Four hundred mystical stones!”

“Four hundred and ten mystical stones!”

“….”

“Five hundred and fifty mystical stones!”
