It was chaotic.
The two disciples of the Four Great Forces continues their bidding war.
Members of the other two forces of the Four Great Forces, the Everground Temple and the Beast Celestial Sect chuckled when they see the Core Disciples of the Flaming Blade Sect and the Dark Moon Palace fighting for the herbs.
The two sects are well known for their rivalry. Sometimes, their hostility with one another are to the point of conflicts that almost destroyed the balance within the Profound Spirit Continent.
"7,000 mid Grade Spiritual Stones!"
7,230 mid Grade Spiritual Stones!"
7,6000 mid Grade Spiritual Stones!"
"Jun Yuhao! This Freezing Flower is something that is useless to you who cultivates Fire Essence! What is the point of you bidding for this herb?!"
"Do you think I will let some trash from your Dark Moon Palace to get his hands on such a treasure? Dream on!"
The face of the disciple of the Dark Moon Palace turns as red as tomato.
However, what he heard next caused him to almost puke blood.
"20,000 shards of a High Grade Spiritual Stones." A cold voice suddenly said amidst those in the nack rows seat.
The hall was instantly silent, unable to process what they just heard.
All eyes instantly turns to the youth in white who is sitting at the back. His legs are crossed, head propped up to his palm while his other arms raised, his fingers forming a peace sign.
Bai Lin's eyes remains cold, ignoring the shocked look from his surroundings.
He raised his other finger.
Three fingers raised, he exclaimed, "30,000shards of a High Grade Spiritual Stones."
Instantly, the entire hall erupted in roars of the cultivators present.
"30,000 shards of High Spiritual Stones! A High Grade Spiritual Stones!"
"What?! Even noble clans can't afford so many spiritual stones! Even those Core Disciples of the Four Great Forces only received a few thousands worth of Mid Grade Spiritual Stones every month!"
"Which young master is this?!"
"How can he be so rich?!"
A hundred Mid grade Spiritual Stones is amounted to one piece of a Mid grade Spiritual Stones. However, this is different when comparing one piece of Mid grade Spiritual Stones compared to a High grade.
One shards of a broken High grade Spiritual Stones is the amount of over thousands of a Mid grade Spiritual Stones.
That's just how wide the difference between the two grades are.
When Bai Lin had exclaimed that he is bidding over 20,000 shards of High grade Spiritual Stones, not many of them were capable of processing his words.
"This has to be a lie! Impossible! How is it possible for someone as young as him to posess so many High grade Spiritual Stones!?" A disciple of the Dark Moon Palace suddenly exclaimed amongst the crowd.
"That's right! That's right! He is still so young. Which clan will allow a prodigal young master like him to spend so many spiritual stones?!"
"That's right! He is sitting at the back row in the first place! If he is really someone with a rich background, why would he be sitting over there!"
"Of god he looks so hot." A male disciple of a low ranking sect can't help but fan themselves.
Jun Yuhao scoffed when he sees the scene below. His eyes flashes with disdains.
As for the Core Disciple of the Dark Moon Palace, he smirks.
Suddenly a laughter revebrated through the entire hall.
"As expected of the Ice Forged Sword Prince, to be capable of killing of Three Great Bandits of the Great Sun Dynasty at such a young age." Jun Yanfu's voice can be heard throughout the entire hall, silencing the crowd in an instant.
The meaning of his words are clear.
Bai Lin had killed the Three Great Bandits of the Great Sun Dynasty.
Also....
The Ice Forged Sword Prince
"The Ice Forged Sword Prince! It's the Ice Forged Sword Prince!"
"The Ice Forged Sword Prince?! The swordmaster who was also known as Six Lights Sword?!"
"That Ice Forged Sword Prince? The youngest swordmaster in the history of this continent?!"
"That very same Ice Forged Sword Prince who had humiliated and killed a Core Disciple of the Dark Moon Palace?!"
"I heard that he cultivated over six types of essence."
"Just how talented do you have to be to be able to cultivate over six types of essence?!"
The faces of the disciples of the Dark Moon Palace flush in anger. All of them glared at the youth in white, eyes filled with hostility.
Bai Lin remains calm despite all the killing intent being directed at him.
One more finger was raised.
"40,000 piece of High grade Spiritual Stones." Bai Lin added.
Many in the hall starts coughing. Since when does a High grade Spiritual Stones became so cheap?
"60,000 pieces of High grade Spiritual Stones." An elder suddenly exclaimed.
All eyes now turns to the elder.
It is actually an elder of the Dark Moon Palace.
The elder grinned at Bai Lin. The truth of the matter is, for elders of their stature, High grade Spiritual Stones are easy to come by.
It's just that although the Freezing Flower is rare, it is an item are that is being fought by the younger generation. Therefore, many had came to a tacit understanding to just let them be.
Besides, considering that the Freezing Flower is the first item to be auctioned, clearly the other items worths more.
The only reason the elder had chosen to bid for the flower is because Bai Lin is currently an enemy of their sect. However, as Bai Lin is only a junior, they can't really send down any elders and sadly for them, none of their disciples dares to go out against him. As for their Core Disciples, they are too arrogant to fight him.
Many are now staring at Bai Lin, wanting to see his reaction.
Sadly for the elder, Bai Lin is someone who is fated to be equal with the Dragon Emperor. That is including his level of pettiness.
The Dragon Emperor had once insulted the wife and daughter of his own master after being defeated at the latter's hand out of pettiness.
As for Bai Lin, even Liu Yang can't help but laugh out loud, clutching his stomach as he rolls around the floating VIP booth.
Even Jun Yanfu can't help but shakes his head.
Wu Tiandi, hiding within the void, clutch his mouth in an attempt to stops himself from laughing.
The reason?
Bai Lin had pulls out a spatial pouch with the insignia of the Dark Moon Palace.
The black haired youth pours down his soul power.
In the next moment, a small sparks of soul power flashes on the insignia. This is a sign that the soul marks of the previous owner is still there - meaning that the items inside the ring hasn't been touched even once.
A bright light flashes.
A huge holographic cube hovers in the air. Inside the cube are piles and mountains of spiritual stones.
The holographic cube vanish.
There is silence.
None dares to speak.
Such amount of spiritual stones, no ordinary Core Disciples of the Dark Moon Palace can have this many spiritual stones unless they save up enough spiritual stones and accomplished a huge amount of missions.
Unless something shady is going on in the background, it is simply impossible.
The elder tremble, his face paling.
How could he not when he can feel the killing intent of his superiors are all directed at him?
"That should be enough." Bai Lin calmly stated.
The female host on the stage tensed.
"Congratulations... congratulations young master...."
Before she could finish her words, a voice resounded from the highest VIP booth.
"80,000 shards of High grade Spiritual Stones."
Bai Lin snapped his head to look up.
Not just him, but all of those who are present does.
A youth clad in a black robe can be seen standing on the highest VIP room. His long black hair reaching down to his back like a waterfall. When they all look at him, none of them can see his face clearly.
Shrouded in dark mist, his face is Hidden by the array engraved on his blindfold.
However all eyes immediately turned to the badge the figure was holding. An alchemy master badge.
They immediately understood the boy's identity.
"80,001 shards of High grade Spiritual Stones" Bai Lin added.
The others are instantly shocked.
The reason they are all here are for the pills that had been concocted by Liu Yang.
That way, they might have a chance to give en impression on the young Alchemist.
Bai Lin sure is brave.
To be daring to offend a young alchemist like Liu Yang.
Given Liu Yang's current status, just a single wave of his hand and this entire hall will immediately joins hands to behead Bai Lin as of this moment
Liu Yang chuckle, "Are you sure you want to offend a great Alchemist like me, brother Bai?"
"Surely your measly talent would be enough to at least give you the basic understanding not to offend someone of my status."
"Other than your status, what else do you have?" Bai Lin questioned.
The others inhaled a cold breath, not expecting Bai Lin's reply.
"Hmm, let me see," Liu Yang placed his fingers on his chin. He looks to be in deep thoughts.
"Power, wealth, status, I've already has had the chance to grasped them in my palm. Such a shame, I just never gets the chance to truly indulge in something worth losing sleep over."
The girls are already blushing. Some are already squeling like a fangirl.
The men are too shocked to procees his words.
However, Bai Lin response instantly caused the entire hall to fall into an awkward silence.
"90,000 shads of grade Spiritual Stones."
"12,000 shards of High grade Spiritual Stones." Underneath the dark mist, Bai Lin has the feeling that the latter is smiling at him.
The price of the Freezing Flower had long passed it's original price.
All of them felt like this is so surreal.
All eyes once again turn to Bai Lin.
Unexpectedly, Bai Lin did not say anything. He simply laid his back against the backrest of his seat, ignoring their gazes.
"Cong.... congratulations to Alchemy Master Gold Lotus for bidding for the Freezing Flower."
"Pffftt.....ahahahah!" Liu Yang's laughter once again revebrated through the hall.
Interesting.
Interesting.
Liu Yang can't help but grin.
He is amused.
He had lost.
Liu Yang's fingers grips the rails tightly, his knuckles turning white.
It's been a long time since my yang reacts this way.
Of course there is also the time he had taught those Inner Court Disciples a lesson. But that was different.
Entirely different.
There is a clear difference between your yang pulsing in anger and in extreme lust.
