If anyone has plans for him, you can actually buy him to cultivate for a while. Who knows, he might advance to a Third-Grade Alchemist. By then, the value of this item will be incomparable to today’s.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, the host’s words failed to stir up the mood among the audience.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Some in the audience even began to shout out:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Host, let’s start the auction quickly…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Let’s see who needs him and quickly auction this male Cultivator off to avoid dampening our spirits here.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The one who spoke was enveloped in Demonic Qi, his eyes greedily fixed on the beautiful host, obviously a Demon Cultivator.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As soon as the Demon Cultivator’s words ended, another voice quickly spoke up:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Indeed…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You speak of advancing to a Third-Grade Alchemist, but is that so easy?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you know how much effort and how many Medium Grade Spirit Stones that would cost us?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Goods will always just be goods. Using Spirit Stones on them is a waste. Let’s just get on with the auction.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing that many in the crowd were getting impatient, the host promptly said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“If that’s the case…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The starting bid for item number sixty-two is ten thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones, with each bid increase not to be less than one thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Now the auction begins…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the host’s words fell, there was complete silence in the venue; for a moment, no one made an offer.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with this situation, Lin Jing was a bit stunned as well.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But more flustered than him was the beautiful host on the stage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She had thought that her cultivation in the art of charm would help to manipulate the atmosphere, but she hadn’t anticipated that when auctioning a male Cultivator, it would have the opposite effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beautiful host then regained her composure and asked again:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ladies and gentlemen, is there no one placing a bid for item number sixty-two?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the host finished speaking, Lin Jing glanced around, noticing that some people were starting to get restless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So he quickly took the initiative, saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten thousand, Medium Grade Spirit Stones…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As Lin Jing’s voice fell, the beautiful host immediately said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Someone has offered ten thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones, any other bids?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After waiting a while and seeing no one else raising the bid, the beautiful host couldn’t help but feel somewhat disappointed, so she began to call out:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones, going once…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ten thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones, going twice…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just as Lin Jing thought he was about to win, and the host on stage was preparing to make the next call.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Suddenly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A voice came from a luxurious private box upstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fifteen thousand, Medium Grade Spirit Stones…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This voice, reaching Lin Jing’s ears, immediately caused his brows to furrow.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because the one who made this bid was none other than the Young Gang Leader of the Black Shark Gang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After this bid was called, many people downstairs looked up at the luxurious box upstairs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The beautiful female cultivator on the auction stage seized the opportunity, quickly saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“There’s already a bid of fifteen thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones, any higher offers?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>……\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this time, inside that luxurious box upstairs…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Young Gang Leader of the Black Shark Gang and ‘Uncle Yin’ were sitting side by side, looking down at the auction hall below.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And the black-robed cultivator, still with a cold expression, stood silently beside the purple-clothed youth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Gang Leader…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You actually shouldn’t have bid just now…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged man began.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Young Gang Leader of the Black Shark Gang appeared somewhat dissatisfied:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uncle Yin, the item below could be worth at least thirty thousand Spirit Stones, so should we just let him take it for ten thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That would be too much of a bargain for him.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged man explained:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s how auctions work. Even though it is estimated to be worth thirty thousand Spirit Stones, the real price still depends on the specific circumstances at the time.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“You see, in the current auction, it’s quite obvious that female cultivators are more popular.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“We only need to stir up the atmosphere a bit when the female cultivator is being auctioned. As for this male cultivator, there is no need to get involved at all.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Young Gang Leader glanced at the auction stage and Lin Jue inside the cage, then said:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Uncle Yin, I understand…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Next, I won’t bid anymore.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The middle-aged man nodded, replying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Young Gang Leader, in fact, even if it sells for ten thousand Spirit Stones, we wouldn’t be at a loss, so you really don’t need to worry.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The purple-clothed youth nodded, saying:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Alright…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“I get it, Uncle Yin.”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the bid from the luxurious box, the cultivators below were even less inclined to bid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the host on stage started the countdown:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fifteen thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones, going once…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After finishing, the host surveyed the audience, seeing no one moving, she then looked toward the cultivator who had bid earlier.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment, that cultivator was frowning, seemingly deep in thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing the atmosphere in the room dip, the host had to speed up the process, wanting to sell off Lot number 62 as quickly as possible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fifteen thousand Spirit Stones, going twice…”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the host finished speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lin Jing also lifted his head at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, the host quickly halted her decision to finish the auction, looking towards Lin Jing…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Fifteen thousand Medium Grade Spirit Stones, going twice now, any more bids?
