Chapter 3064: The Center of Attention

If this bow could be used, he would have snagged a bargain and made a big profit; if it couldn't be used, he probably wouldn't lose much either. Such a large bow, even just the materials are not insignificant.

When the host saw someone bidding, he also breathed a sigh of relief. The others only then noticed Ye Liuyun, all thinking he was a sucker.

In the end, no one competed with Ye Liuyun for the bow, so it naturally went to him.

Unbothered by the mocking voices in the venue, Ye Liuyun simply handed the large bow to Tong Xin and Qiong Qi inside his Space World, explained the situation to them, and let them study its restoration. He then continued to focus on the auction.

Next, the auction brought out several True Rank Eight-Nine grade weapons and treasures, which immediately sparked a scramble among the people in the private rooms.

Ye Liuyun had plenty of such things; these weapons and treasures posed no threat to his physical body now, weren't particularly special, and failed to arouse his interest at all.

But the enthusiasm in the venue was stirred up. The host then took out the True Rank Ninth-grade Marrow Cleansing Pill as well.

"This Marrow Cleansing Pill was personally crafted by Grand Alchemist Lin Feng of the Xu Dan Sect. It is True Rank Ninth-grade, capable of simultaneously refining the soul, bloodline, physical body, and true essence—one pill equals four medicinal pills."

While the host was introducing it, Ye Liuyun used his Golden Pupil to size up the people in the private rooms, seeing who was interested. After looking around, he realized that those he had seen before seemed to be preparing to bid.

Even the martial cultivators in the downstairs seats, though they couldn't afford it, stared at it with intense envy.

So when the host announced the opening bid of one hundred units of Primordial Power and invited bids, Ye Liuyun jumped in first, directly offering three hundred fifty units of Primordial Power.

This bid left everyone stunned.

"Did I hear right? Three hundred fifty units of Primordial Power?" someone asked those nearby.

"To raise the price like that, it jumped several-fold all at once?"

Such a bidding method was unheard of among those participating in the auction.

The auction host, stunned for a moment, then confirmed with Ye Liuyun: "Sir, you said three hundred fifty units of Primordial Power?"

"Correct!" Ye Liuyun affirmed.

Upon hearing that, the host was also speechless.

If the price of this Marrow Cleansing Pill were raised gradually, it would at most reach a little over three hundred units of Primordial Power. They had auctioned this grade of pill many times before and knew the market.

But Ye Liuyun now set the price in one go, leaving no chance for others to bid higher.

Although this might affect the auction's atmosphere a bit, the auction was ending anyway, and such an unexpected bid was also rather novel.

So after thinking it over, he also approved Ye Liuyun's bid.

But the others reacted, expressing their dissatisfaction.

"Isn't this causing trouble? Who raises the price like that!" the old man in the private room who was at the Seventh Layer of Return to One complained dissatisfiedly.

Ye Liuyun immediately retorted: "I haven't violated any auction rules. As long as I can afford the money, it's not causing trouble."

The woman also said discontentedly: "You're bidding like this just to keep us from participating?"

Her words were also full of threat.

"Anyone who can afford the price can participate!" Ye Liuyun said indifferently.

The woman stopped speaking, but Ye Liuyun's Golden Pupil already saw her eyes full of killing intent; he had already summoned a subordinate to leave the private room, presumably to send someone to monitor him.

At this point, the He Clan disciple also interjected: "You've already bought so many pills, and you still want to buy a Marrow Cleansing Pill? This kind of pill that refines all kinds of strength is useless if you take too much, so why bother causing trouble?"

"I don't think you're sincere in your bid; you might as well give up bidding and let us re-auction this Marrow Cleansing Pill."

Ye Liuyun, too lazy to bother with that brainless disciple, directly asked the host: "Your auction"

"Will it continue, or are you afraid people will bid too high and don't want to sell?"

"These idiots are speaking out and disrupting the auction, and you don't care?"

After Ye Liuyun's question, the host also knew what he said was correct, immediately confirmed Ye Liuyun's price. The price Ye Liuyun gave had already met his expectations, so of course he wouldn't refuse.

Moreover, he was quite displeased that these people wanted to void the price; the price is not for them to decide. So he reminded others again not to interfere with the auction's progress.

Then he began asking if anyone else would bid higher.

Once he confirmed the price, the whole venue erupted, with everyone discussing Ye Liuyun's background.

"Who is this person? So rich!"

"He seems to have auctioned off quite a few things before!"

Ye Liuyun then suddenly became the focus of the entire venue, with everyone paying attention to him.

The He Clan disciple also wore a grim face, staring at Ye Liuyun's private room with eyes blazing. His personal name was He Lingwu, son of an elder of the main line of the He Clan's inner door; he had previously not participated much in other auctions, just waiting for this Marrow Cleansing Pill.

This Marrow Cleansing Pill was of great use to him: not only could it speed up his future cultivation, but it could also give him a chance to stand out in the He Clan's selection.

The He Clan recently planned to select some early to mid Return-to-One layer disciples to enter their family's Secret Realm for cultivation improvement. He was preparing to vie for first place, then officially advance to inner-door disciple. He never expected this hope to be disrupted by Ye Liuyun.

"Kid, which clan are you from?"

Although the host had reminded them not to affect the auction, he still couldn't help asking. He knew the auction wouldn't target the He Clan disciple either.

However, Ye Liuyun was too lazy to bother with him, merely waiting for the host to announce the result.

The He Clan disciple, again ignored by Ye Liuyun, flew into a rage and smashed his teacup on the spot, letting a guard leave the private room, presumably also to keep an eye on Ye Liuyun.

"Hmph, courting death!"

Ye Liuyun cursed them in his heart, not paying the slightest attention to their actions. Even if these people all came together to surround him, he could handle them.

"Hahaha!" At that moment, the armed man suddenly laughed and said to Ye Liuyun: "I am the Garrison Leader Yu Wenqiang here, urgently needing this Marrow Cleansing Pill. I'll add one more unit of Primordial Power, little brother—how about letting me have this Marrow Cleansing Pill?"

As soon as he spoke, the entire auction hall fell silent, with no one daring to voice discussion.

"It seems this Garrison Leader's status here is not low, having such deterrent power!"

Ye Liuyun thought to himself and let out a long sigh.

"Alas!"

Everyone still thought he didn't dare to compete with Yu Wenqiang and was preparing to give up.

But Ye Liuyun then slowly said to the host: "You host are really incompetent, can't even maintain order. If you can't control the scene, just switch someone else! What has this auction become under your hosting?"
