The thousand-year Spirit Beast Cangbei Tiger was auctioned off for one thousand gold coins to the Black-Clothed Person.
Lin Tao had a hint of helplessness on her face, because the Cangbei Tiger's value was between three thousand and four thousand gold coins, the main reason being that no one bid for it.
She also didn't know why.
The next few items were unsold.
She felt very uncomfortable, then took out the next item and began to introduce it.
"Dear distinguished guests, this is a spirit tool, the Glazed Hairpin. In the dark, it can emit a soft light like glazed glass, which is very beautiful. You can give it to your girlfriends. Now, please place your bids. The starting price is thirty gold coins."
The Black-Clothed Person frowned slightly, regretting having bid on that Cangbei Tiger.
Since that divine item, the auctioned items had been getting worse and worse, even a broken hairpin appeared.
"What kind of junk is this? No thanks."
The Gray-Clothed Person Mo Long shook his head.
"Little beauty, do you even know how to Auction? All the items being auctioned are trash."
Yulina from Spirit Hall came to the door, ready to leave, but the other party refused to let her. She wanted to force her way out, but she received an order from the Title Douluo in her communication spirit tool, telling her to stay at the Auction.
The reason was that someone who could produce one divine item might be able to produce a second.
She returned to her seat and stared at Zhuge Lan, who was her target.
Zhuge Lan looked at the anxious Lin Tao, feeling a pang of heartache, and immediately said,
"I bid one thousand gold coins."
Tang Xu, holding the IOU, felt very uncomfortable. This Glazed Hairpin, clearly worth less than a hundred gold coins, was actually being auctioned for one thousand gold coins.
"Idiot."
Lin Tao was very happy to see someone bid. Being unsold was too much of a blow to her, but seeing that it was Zhuge Lan who won the bid, she felt a little strange, after all, this Glazed Hairpin was meant for girls.
Could it be that the Glazed Hairpin was for a girl Zhuge Lan liked?
She said with some disappointment,
"Congratulations to this young master for acquiring the Glazed Hairpin."
Zhuge Lan laughed heartily.
"Ten thousand gold coins can't buy a smile from the beauty Taotao. This is for the lovely Taotao. Please accept it!"
Lin Tao's eyes lit up, and a surprised expression appeared on her face, which then turned red.
"Young master, is it really for Taotao?"
Zhuge Lan nodded.
"Of course, as long as Taotao wishes, I am willing to pluck the stars from the sky for Taotao."
"Thank you, young master, you are so kind."
Lin Tao said somewhat charmingly.
The guests below exploded. These two treated the thousands of people present as air and began to flirt.
The originally lively and passionate Auction now had a strange romantic atmosphere.
Many single people were unhappy.
"What the hell, Taotao, how are you hosting the Auction?"
"What's going on with the Auction? Why did Old Qian leave?"
"I originally thought that having you, a beauty, host would be better, but I didn't expect it to be so melodramatic. What do you take me for? Air?"
The Black-Clothed Person in his seat angrily shouted,
"Quickly bring out something valuable. These broken things don't excite me at all."
The Gray-Clothed Person Mo Long coldly looked at Zhuge Lan. This fellow, on the verge of death, was still flirting. He truly didn't know what was good for him.
Yulina from Spirit Hall showed an envious expression. Love is truly wonderful!
Tang Xu's face was flushed with anger. For some reason, he felt a green tinge on his head, looking at the eight million IOU in his hand.
He had to deal with this Zhuge Lan.
Zhuge Lan shrugged. This small amount of money was negligible to him, after all, he now had a huge sum of money.
In this situation, it was wonderful to make a beauty smile.
Dugu Bo, beside him, began to fuse with the ten-thousand-year Soul Bone. The fusion process was very smooth, and Dugu Bo's aura was slowly increasing.
Zhuge Lan looked and nodded.
The stronger his enforcer, the more at ease he would be using him.
Lin Tao pushed a small cart and came forward, opening it to reveal a glowing red rose. Then she smiled and introduced it,
"This rose is called Fiery Red Lips. It is said to be a new variety cultivated by a plant Grandmaster. When women use this flower to make a facial mask and apply it to their faces, they will become three points more beautiful. The starting price: one thousand gold coins."
The Black-Clothed Person was stunned for a moment. It was another item for women. Would that boy buy it again? Never mind, he'd just make a random bid.
"One thousand and one."
The Gray-Clothed Person Mo Long cursed with a smile,
"How shameless, only bidding one gold coin more. Then I'll bid a little more than him, one thousand and three."
Yulina from Spirit Hall laughed. This item was also effective for her, so she might as well make a bid.
"Two thousand."
Zhuge Lan looked at the Fiery Red Lips rose, his eyes lighting up. This item was for Lin Tao. Thinking of Lin Tao's soft lips, plus this Fiery Red Lips, for some reason, he felt like drooling.
He immediately shouted,
"Ten thousand."
Lin Tao on the stage looked at Zhuge Lan, her face couldn't help but blush. She thought Zhuge Lan was so kind, and then said with a smile,
"Congratulations..."
"Ten thousand and one."
Tang Xu immediately shouted. He was truly fed up. How did a large-scale Auction turn into a disgusting romantic scene, and the romantic partners were a beauty he had pursued and an enemy/rival?
If he didn't create some trouble for them, he would feel really uncomfortable.
Zhuge Lan looked at the smug Tang Xu, feeling disgusted. How did this guy come out to cause trouble? That ten million should have made this kid full. Otherwise, he should make this guy bleed a little.
"Twenty thousand."
"Twenty thousand and one."
Tang Xu immediately shouted. He just wanted to annoy Zhuge Lan. The value of this rose would definitely not exceed ten thousand, but what if it was twenty thousand? Anyway, he had plenty of money now, in the IOU.
"Thirty thousand."
"Thirty thousand and one."
"It's yours."
Zhuge Lan wasn't an idiot; he could see the true value of the rose. In fact, when he bid twenty thousand just now, Lin Tao on the stage had given him a gesture, signaling him not to bid anymore, but to make that brat bleed a little, he added one more bid.
Lin Tao on the stage breathed a sigh of relief, then looked at Tang Xu and said with a smile,
"Young master, you have acquired this rose."
The Black-Clothed Person below sighed helplessly.
"Idiot."
The Gray-Clothed Person Mo Long looked at Tang Xu and shook his head helplessly. This was truly an idiot. He had been tricked by this move before, and now he was using it again.
It was truly speechless.
The Spirit Douluo from his family whom he had called was already outside the Auction. As soon as the Auction ended, he would immediately enter and then find a way to kill this Zhuge Lan and seize the treasures on him.
Yulina from Spirit Hall's expression was serious, because according to the information from her communication spirit tool, the Title Douluo she had called was already chasing Old Qian, but Old Qian's spirit power occasionally surged, causing him to be on the verge of being caught, but he still wasn't caught.
She guessed that Old Qian must have used that peerless treasure, otherwise such a situation would definitely not occur.
Tang Xu's face showed anger. He had been tricked again, but then an idea came to him.
"Taotao, this rose is my gift to you."
"I don't want it."
