Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 951 - 949: The second auction item is actually...

"Two thousand five hundred!" As expected, the Undying Great Demon Emperor quickened his bidding pace. Two thousand five hundred Purple Crystal Coins was already a somewhat terrifying figure.

There was silence from the Tenth VIP Room.

"Two thousand five hundred Purple Crystal Coins, is there anyone else who would like to continue bidding?" the Dark Demon Great Demon Emperor said gravely. His gaze also fell upon the Tenth VIP Room.

Losing to the Undying Great Demon Emperor wasn't shameful, but the current situation was rather peculiar. One reason was that the battle for the Emperor title was about to begin, and with the Dragon Race now lacking the Crystal Great Demon Emperor, they needed to strive to preserve the Crystal City. Already inherently not as powerful as the Phoenix Clan, being further suppressed like this would be...

"Tenth VIP Room, two thousand six hundred Purple Crystal Coins." The auction staff announced the new price.

No sound came out from the VIP room of the Undying Great Demon Emperor. Compared to his successive bids earlier, this silence seemed to signify something.

Two thousand six hundred Purple Crystal Coins had greatly surpassed the value of the Ephemeral Sunflower.

Did he yield? The Undying Great Demon Emperor, as the current Phoenix Lord, actually yielded?

In VIP Room No.8, Tang San's expression shifted slightly, a trace of admiration flashing in his eyes.

Meanwhile, the expression on the Dark Demon Great Demon Emperor, who was on stage, seemed a bit unsightly.

He hadn't expected the Undying Great Demon Emperor to concede. What Tang San had previously considered, he had naturally thought of as well. The Phoenix Clan was already in a better position than the Dragon Race, and suppressing the latter would be a very good move. If it were him, he would have done the same. However, at this point in the bidding, despite the high price of two thousand six hundred, it was not too much for the Undying Great Demon Emperor, a Phoenix Lord of his generation, yet he chose to concede at this moment. What did that mean?

After a brief moment of surprise, the Dark Demon Great Demon Emperor started to understand.

Led by the Light Dragon King, Xu Anyu, these Dragons were the main opposing force against him within the Dragon Race. The Dragon Race had only him as the Emperor, while Xu Anyu was the one they were aiming to cultivate and support, even hoping he could rank high and eventually contend with the Undying Great Demon Emperor.

The Undying Great Demon Emperor's concession at this moment implied recognition of the Light Dragon King, Xu Anyu. Wasn't this indirectly supporting him to oppose himself? It was clearly an instigation within the Dragon Race, especially since the Ephemeral Sunflower had already exceeded its original value. Killing two birds with one stone – it seemed like the Dragon Race had the upper hand, but in reality, the Phoenix Demon Clan was the one gaining the most substantial benefit, and without spending a single coin.

This was also the reason for Tang San's admiration. The Undying Great Demon Emperor wasn't burdened by the illusion of honor; he made the right choice at a critical moment. Such composure and wisdom deserved respect.

"Two thousand six hundred Purple Crystal Coins, is there any higher bid?" The Dark Demon Great Demon Emperor had already returned to normal by this time. As an Emperor, he would naturally not let his own judgments affect his emotions. The auction must continue.

"Two thousand six hundred for the first time, two thousand six hundred for the second time, two thousand six hundred for the third time, sold. Congratulations to Tenth VIP Room for winning the Ephemeral Sunflower with a bid of two thousand six hundred Purple Crystal Coins." Dark Demon Great Demon Emperor announced the ownership of the first auction item.

At this moment, the enthusiasm of all the bidders in the venue had been thoroughly ignited.

The first item fetched such a high price and was such a precious entity, with Emperors personally taking part in the bidding. What then, do the subsequent items mean? It's undoubtedly that they are all the most precious treasures!

The first item could be considered a warm-up, but with the following items, the bidders were definitely sharpening their knives.

Related to the battle for the throne, every Race hoped to make a fight of it during this opportunity. If luck was on their side and they obtained a spot, it could change the future of a Race! The reason why Big Cat was representing the Lion Demon Clan in battle was because of this. Were there none in the Lion Demon Clan with a higher Cultivation base than Big Cat? Of course, there were! After all, they are the kings of the plains. However, when it came to bloodline level, there was a gap, and only Big Cat was a true First level Bloodline. Therefore, the Lion Demon Clan spared no expense to help Big Cat enhance its Cultivation base as much as possible and arm it to the teeth, hoping to acquire some good items in the upcoming auction, to help Big Cat defeat formidable enemies.

Almost every strong race had the same idea, so for this super auction, the majority of the strong races brought their entire wealth. How else could it be called a super auction?

What an auction venue hopes to see the most is the presence of top-notch items and a multitude of bidders with substantial funds. And add to that, an irresistible driving force. Combine all three, and that's definitely perfect.

Ancestral Court precisely saw this opportunity, hence deciding to hold this super auction. One could imagine, after this auction, the financial strength of all races would probably be severely weakened, and it won't be easy to recover without a decade or two. Meanwhile, Ancestral Court takes this chance to make a big fortune. Not to mention, just the handling fees for these items would be enough to garner a hefty sum. These were fully grown cash crops, ready to be reaped.

"The second auction item, please." The Dark Demon Great Demon Emperor kept a brisk pace. As the lights on the auction stage dimmed again, the curiosity of the bidders was once more piqued, filled with hopeful anticipation for the second beam of light to rise.

This time, a gentle ice-blue light slowly ascended, and the temperature in the air instantly began to drop. An ice-blue throne with beautiful patterns slowly rose.

Seeing this auction item appear, Tang San couldn't help but widen his eyes, exclaiming, "Ice Sealed Throne, the Tribal Artifact of the Ice Maiden Clan!"

Seeing the Ice Sealed Throne filled Tang San with astonishment. He had once sparred with the patriarch of the Ice Maiden Clan and defeated her, creating an opportunity for his eldest senior brother Wu Bingji. His oldest senior brother's mother was a member of the Ice Maiden Clan, a race without males. At that time, Tang San was aware that the future of the Ice Maiden Clan was somewhat unsustainable. Yet, to his surprise, taking advantage of this super auction, the Ice Maiden Clan had ultimately put forth their Tribal Artifact.

The Ice Sealed Throne was different from the previous Ephemeral Sunflower. Although the Ephemeral Sunflower was precious, in the Sunflower Spirit Clan, there were definitely more than one, and there was some accumulation. It wouldn't necessarily affect the development of the Race. For the Ice Maiden Clan, however, the Ice Sealed Throne could be considered the very foundation of the entire Race! Without the Ice Sealed Throne, the future of the Ice Maiden Clan would inevitably head toward extinction. To auction off this divine tool meant that the Ice Maiden Clan really had reached a point of powerlessness.

Tang San had previously discussed with Ice Maiden Clan patriarch Huang Bingbing, wanting to help the Ice Maiden Clan develop, even to bring them to the human world. But later on, various matters caused delays. He originally planned that after the martial arts tournament was over, he would visit the Ice Maiden Clan. His newly established Sea of Elements Awakening Mode might be able to attract the Ice Maiden Clan to join.

The Ice Maiden Clan itself could intermarry with humans, and whether it was awakening the Heavenly Spirit Transformation or the ice attribute and elemental affinity of future generations, they were very well suited for joint development with humans. Yet unexpectedly, the Ice Maiden Clan could not wait for his visit, and they directly put up the Ice Sealed Throne this time. Tang San couldn't help but feel a bit of sorrow in his heart.

"Due to issues within the Ice Maiden Clan, the Ice Sealed Throne, their Tribal Artifact, is up for auction in this venue. This is an ice attribute divine tool that can be used both for cultivation and combat. It also has an excellent nurturing effect on ice attribute bloodlines. Although there are no Emperors with ice attributes, if this divine tool is used properly, there's at least a chance in the future to nurture a nascent Emperor. The starting bid is eight hundred Purple Crystal Coins. Each increment must be no less than ten Purple Crystal Coins, let's begin now."
