Luo Qingfeng beamed as he took in the scene.
Xia Ruofei and Li Yifu, having anticipated this outcome, also smiled in delight.
Because this was the final bottle of Qi-gathering pills, the competition reached an unprecedented level of intensity. Aside from a few powerful sects, independent cultivators also scrambled to place their bids. Ultimately, this final bottle sold for an astronomical 3,360 spirit stones. This staggering amount completely eclipsed Zhou Bingxuan's second-round winning bid of 3,200 spirit stones.
This result brought a measure of comfort to Zhou Bingxuan. In retrospect, securing two bottles for 3,200 and 3,000 spirit stones wasn't a bad deal at all. However, his frustration flared up again the moment he remembered how Liu Mansha had sabotaged him twice, only to snatch her own bottle for less than 3,000 spirit stones.
