Chapter 921: 921

"May I have a look?"

Sun Shang asked eagerly.

"Of course, Master Sun Shang is the number one alchemist on the Divine Phoenix Continent, and Yun Ya naturally trusts your judgment," Yun Ya said with a smile.

What an opportunity for free advertising.

Sun Shang rushed forward, grabbed the pills, and after carefully examining them for a moment, nodded and said, "Correct, these are Perfect Grade pills. Have you encountered that mysterious alchemist again?"

Yun Ya nodded and said, "That master is right here in the Imperial City, but he prefers not to show himself."

"I see."

Sun Shang took a deep breath, returned to his seat, and was ready to bid a high price for these pills.

He certainly could say they were not Perfect Grade pills, but then he wouldn’t be able to make an offer.

Once he made an offer, anyone who wasn’t a fool could tell he was talking nonsense.

Moreover, he was worried that the mysterious alchemist might be watching the auction, and if he were called out, he, the newly appointed president of the Phoenix God Medical College, would be embarrassed.

"Ladies and gentlemen, you all heard it. Marvellous Hand Heavenly Lord Sun Shang has already made his judgment on these pills. I have a total of one hundred such pills, well, I should say only one hundred. Once they are sold, there won’t be another chance," Yun Ya took the opportunity to say.

No one doubted Sun Shang’s words.

Everyone present knew just how formidable Marvellous Hand Heavenly Lord Sun Shang was in the art of alchemy and medicine.

If he said those items were genuine, then they were.

Ling Xiao took a deep breath, recalling how he had benefited from Sun Shang’s endorsement at the last auction, having used the man once before.

He hadn’t expected to need to rely on Sun Shang again today.

It made him almost reluctant to go against the old fellow.

He watched the expressions of those guests in boredom, waiting for them to place their bids until he suddenly noticed Feng Yanran stand up abruptly, then quickly say something to Feng Qingyan.

He did not dare to use his Soul Power to eavesdrop, but he could guess the meaning just by reading lips.

After all, the analytical ability of his Mountain and River Martial Soul had improved a lot.

"Uncle Qing Yan, I’m afraid I don’t have enough Spirit Stones. You’ll have to lend me some later; I want to bid on all of these," Feng Yanran said seriously.

"These Inferior Tianling Shen Pills are indeed valuable. I fully support you bidding for them; they will be greatly beneficial to the improvement of your Cultivation Level," Feng Qingyan nodded.

"It’s not for me; it’s for Ling Xiao," Feng Yanran shook her head.

"For Ling Xiao? You haven’t fallen for that kid, have you?" Feng Qingyan asked with confusion.

"Uncle Qing Yan, stop talking nonsense. Ling Xiao is going to have a life-and-death battle with the Blood Skeleton in a month. Do you really want to watch him go and get killed? These Inferior Tianling Shen Pills are too important for him," Feng Yanran urged.

"You still haven’t answered my question," Feng Qingyan shook his head.

"Aiya, I can’t make it clear to you. If you want to know about Ling Xiao, you can ask my Hidden Mountain Brother directly; he understands the situation clearer than I do," Feng Yanran said, getting flustered.

Just then, Yun Ya announced the start of the auction.

"These one hundred Inferior Tianling Shen Pills will not be auctioned off separately; that would be too much trouble. One hundred pills, with a starting bid of 1 Million Low Grade Spirit Stones. Now, please place your bids, and each increment must be no less than 100,000 Low Grade Spirit Stones," Yun Ya finished speaking and then turned her gaze toward the vip seats.

Sitting there were Feng Qingyan, Fengming Wan Zhong, and others who were the real big spenders.

"1.1 million!"

As soon as Yun Ya finished speaking, a bid was called out.

It was clear that the Inferior Heavenly Spirit Divine Pill was truly in high demand, with many people willing to pay a high price to compete for it.

"1.2 million!"

"1.5 million!"

Perhaps feeling that incrementing by 100,000 each time was simply too troublesome, someone directly upped the bid by 300,000.

The competition within the venue continued to drive the price upward.

In just a short span of time, the price astonishingly reached the major threshold of 5 million.

"Feng Qingyan, Uncle, have you decided yet? I only have 5 million Low-Grade Spirit Stones, and I can’t offer any more. Please, I’m begging you. There are some things I truly cannot say, but I must help Ling Xiao. Our Ice Phoenix Clan owes him."

Feng Yanran spoke anxiously.

"Alright, alright, I’ll help you bid for it. As to whether it should be given to that Ling Xiao, I still need to consult with the Ice Phoenix Crown Prince."

Unable to resist Feng Yanran’s persistent pleas, Feng Qingyan reluctantly decided to enter the bidding.

However, he was in no hurry to make a bid. When he did bid, he wanted to settle it in one go; he had no interest in dithering over such bothersome matters.

At this moment, those raising bids were still the small fries in the common seats, nowhere near a threat to him.

What he needed to be wary of were the bids from Phoenix God College.

That was the real crux of the matter.

The competition continued to intensify, and the voices gradually began to dwindle.

Once the price had reached 5 million Low-Grade Spirit Stones, many people had already hit their limits.

Not everyone was as wealthy as alchemists.

Most martial artists’ Spirit Stones were hard-earned through numerous tasks, so having as many as 5 million was truly rare.

"6 million!"

Just when Feng Qingyan thought the time was right, a voice rang out.

Turning his head, he saw that Marvellous Hand Heavenly Lord Sun Shang was the one who had called out the bid.

This shout caused many people to swallow back their own bids that were on the brink of being made.

After all, few dared to offend Phoenix God College.

Not to mention that this man was the president of Divine Phoenix Medical College.

Competing with such a person was not only futile but might also lead to offense; it was better to offer a helping hand when one had the chance.

"Sun Shang, you are the number one alchemist in Divine Phoenix Continent, why would you even need to buy these Inferior Heavenly Spirit Divine Pills?" Feng Qingyan asked, somewhat puzzled.

He was genuinely confused, for pill refinement was not his area of expertise.

"Perfect Grade pills are worth taking back for study." Sun Shang explained casually.

"I say, old Feng Phoenix, if you don’t have the money then quit your yapping. Why do you care if others buy or not?" Fengming Wan Zhong seemed to have a less-than-favorable relationship with Feng Qingyan, always picking a fight upon meeting, and this time was no exception in seizing the opportunity to ridicule him.

"Today, this Heavenly Spirit Divine Pill, I am determined to have it! 7 million Low-Grade Spirit Stones!" Feng Qingyan didn’t wish to increase the bid by so much at once, but as the Vice President of Qingxu College, he absolutely couldn’t bid less than Sun Shang, otherwise, it would seem like a sign of weakness.

This was not a matter of personal loss or gain, but a battle for the prestige between colleges.

"8 million!" This time the bid didn’t come from Sun Shang, but from Fengming Wan Zhong; that fellow really knew when to seize an opportunity.

"9 million!"

In a short while, Feng Qingyan and Fengming Wan Zhong had driven the price of this gourd of Inferior Heavenly Spirit Divine Pills to an incredible 13 million.

It was as if they were merely competing out of spite, no longer about the pills themselves.

"20 million Low-Grade Spirit Stones. Gentlemen, please stop competing; this item will go to me!"

This voice came from outside, belonging to a stranger.
