This ignited the curiosity of Sikong Shoujia and Luo Chen.

Could it be that this Sky Moon Purple Gold Wheel has another special use, and it’s not simply an Offense Magic Item?

However, if that’s the case, why didn’t the people from Yu Ding Sword Sect make it clear, in order to sell it at a higher price?

And how did Mi Shuhua find out?

Perhaps having noticed everyone’s wild guessing, Mi Shuhua pondered for a while and started discussing a different topic.

“There’s a knack to bidding at auctions,”

“If you’re broke, there’s not much to say, you should always stay within your means. The ones you can’t beat, you will never be able to beat.”

“If you’re wealthy, you can take your time and negotiate. What belongs to you will always be yours.”

“But if you’re average, then you must be skillful. Either strike first by carrying the day, or make the last move but achieve the first success. Such as what I just did, within my ability range, instantly raising the price by bringing out the confidence that I must win, creating an illusion of a premium.”

“Perhaps there truly is a premium, but what occasion is this?”

“An auction!”

“Under countless scrutiny, most auction items will appear to be overpriced. You might as well push up the price instead of waiting for others to raise it step by step.”

“Of course, this only applies to resources you absolutely need to buy. What if they are not indispensable?”

“Just like what they are now bidding for, magic tools, how should we bid?”

Under the guidance of Mi Shuhua, Luo Chen and others vicariously went into the shoes of a buyer, pondering the best way to win the bid.

It must be said that these experiences greatly enlightened them.

The prices for the subsequent auction items were almost as Mi Shuhua predicted.

As the saying goes, experience comes with age!

About half an hour later, the first round of the auction came to an end.

During the break, the White Jade Stage was extraordinarily busy.

One by one, the cultivators from the Sword Pavilion displayed numerous items on the stage as if they were setting up a stall.

Seeing these items, Luo Chen and his companions instantly realized.

As expected, this seems to be the auction phase for rogue cultivators’ resources!

The magic tools offered by Wang Yuan were displayed in one corner.

Soon, Luo Tianhong took to the stage.

The second round of the auction was different from the previous round where individual items were introduced.

Luo Tianhong quickly mentioned the majority of them, stating the grade, name, and general purpose of the auction items as well as the starting price, and it was just about enough.

Then the bidding began.

He did not make any attempts to heighten the bidders’ suspense. As long as the price slightly paused, he would quickly call for a deal.

The two-order Spirit Grass of Sikong Shoujia was sold first, and the buyer was a foundation establishment cultivator who hid his identity.

The magic tools of Wang Yuan also sold well, with almost ninety percent of them being sold.

Therefore, he made a good profit, in a instant earning thousands of spirit stones.

However, the items offered by Luo Wudi and Mi Junping received few bids and many were not sold at all.

For this, they were quite helpless.

In this kind of situation, some resources which usually look good are simply not pleasing to others’ eyes.

Wang Yuan managed to sell more as he had set a low starting price.

After the second round, there was a break where a group of female cultivators came and performed songs and dances.

The cultivators of the Yu Ding Sword Pavilion even provided a lot of pastries to all the cultivators present.

In response to this, Luo Chen could only sigh that it makes sense for the Yu Ding Sword Sect to earn spirit stones.

Even if not buying anything, coming in to gain knowledge was a pretty good deal.

If Luo Chen knew that the entrance fee for the auction was a single spirit stone, he would not feel that the Yu Ding Sword Sect was so considerate.

“The third round of the auction, begins now.”

“The first lot is a variety of rare spirit medicines provided by our friend Mi Shuhua of the Broken Mountain Gang.”

“There are three second-order Monster Pills, three Hearts of Bin Iron, one third-order Silver Mane Horse cub that can be tamed…. and ten bottles of medium-grade Jade Marrow Pills made personally by Broken Mountain Gang’s Pill Hall Master Dan Chenzi.”

“Ladies and gentlemen, you can start bidding now!”

The third round of the auction was to auction off items provided by the local major forces.

The Broken Mountain Gang is the largest and oldest rogue cultivator gang in The Great River District and naturally got the first spot.

Upon hearing the items up for auction, there was some commotion in the room.

Second-order Monster Pills are definitely good stuff, a few Foundation Establishment Cultivators directly bought them.

The Heart of Bin Iron was also quite good, with the box from Wanbao Pavilion brazenly calling out a big price.

The Silver Mane Horse cub was even more desirable. If properly nurtured, in a few hundred years it would become a third-order demon beast on par with a Golden Core!

It must be said, Mi Shuhua, this longstanding Foundation Establishment Cultivator, indeed has substantial resources.

He previously made a bid of eighty thousand and joyously secured a magic item.

Now he was putting up a large array of nice items for auction, presumably he could recover quite a bit of his investment.

Compared to other people bidding, Luo Chen in box number eight was completely flabbergasted.

“Hall Master of the Pill Hall — Dan Chenzi?”

“Since when did I get such a title?”

“What, you don’t like this Daoist name?”

A Daoist name!

Looking at Mi Shuhua’s smiling face, Luo Chen abruptly came to a realization.

This was not a kind of martial arts nicknames like “Downhill Tiger,” or “Heart-eater Tiger,” but a more formal Daoist name.

Such a name is usually used by major sects with a lineage, or powerful independent martial artists and villains.

The last Daoist name he heard was Qing Yuanzi, the author of “Qingyuan Pill Explanation”.

The former also acquired this name, Qing Yuanzi, because of his profound knowledge in the Dao of Alchemy.

To his surprise, he now has a Daoist name.

Luo Chen couldn’t help but say, “It’s not that I don’t like it, it’s just…”

“Curious why I gave you a Daoist name?” Mi Shuhua seemed to know the doubts in Luo Chen’s heart..
