Chapter 770: Chapter 780: Auction!
The auctioneer’s words carried through the air, immediately drawing Tang Zhong’s attention.
Spiritual Land, what kind of Spiritual Land was it?
Under the heavens, there were many things imbued with Spiritual Energy, such as the Everlasting Spring of Mount Kunlun, which was likely filled with Spiritual Energy.
Of course, there were many other Spiritual Springs, with water so sweet and palatable that those who drank it, although not granted immortality, could at least extend their lifespan!
On Earth, there were many Longevity Villages, where the longevity of the residents was attributed to this very reason.
If the people of Kunlun in Xuan Country deemed it a Spiritual Land, then it surely was.
At this moment, as the woman made her offer, many people began to be tempted.
However, the woman hadn’t made her bid yet.
"Since the nature of the Spiritual Land is unknown, the starting bid is not particularly high, fifty million!"
Many wealthy patrons, unconcerned about money, began to bid as though money meant nothing to them.
"I bid sixty million!"
"Seventy million!"
Some of these wealthy individuals were Martial Artists, somewhat familiar with the rules of the Martial World; they knew that if these treasure maps contained nothing, they would be worthless, but if they did contain something, it would unquestionably be a treasure — a notion well understood by many.
Thus, some bid while others did not!
Tang Zhong was not in a hurry; he was waiting for an opportunity. Whether the map contained something or not, he wanted to give it a try.
If he could view the contents of the map, that would be splendid, offering a sliver of opportunity Tang Zhong wanted to test.
The two foreigners in black suits slightly adjusted their hats upwards and began to converse at that moment.
"The authentication rate of treasures by Kunlun in Xuan Country is quite formidable; without a doubt, that item is authentic!"
"Lord Adam sent us here to give Tang Zhong a taste of humility, but he didn’t say we couldn’t purchase items here. Why don’t we bid on this, and if it turns out to be a great find, presenting it to Lord Adam upon our return might earn us a reward!"
"Good!" the other man’s eyes shimmered, finding merit in his companion’s suggestion.
After all, their plan was flawless, and completing their mission would undoubtedly be a breeze.
Without delay, the two began to raise their paddles.
"One hundred million!"
Now, the auction was incredibly intense.
When the price reached one hundred million, Tang Zhong’s brow furrowed slightly; not because of the price, but because of the two men bidding — he had noticed them.
"Foreigners? Why are there foreigners here?" Tang Zhong muttered to himself.
And there was a strange aura about these foreigners.
No matter, he would first choose to bid on this map regardless!
One hundred million — he didn’t care in the slightest!
"One hundred and ten million!" bellowed Tang Zhong.
No matter the cost of the treasure map, he was willing to purchase it, provided that it contained what he needed.
No sooner had he called out his bid,
Guan Shenghai’s face shifted ever so slightly in the distance; he had been keeping a close watch on Tang Zhong and didn’t expect him to call out such a high sum all at once, truly beyond everyone’s expectation.
"He’s bluffing, definitely bluffing!"
In Guan Shenghai’s view, Tang Zhong was just the owner of a guild hall; how could he possibly have so much money?
Noticing this, Chen Long’s expression changed subtly, and he immediately turned to Guan Shenghai, saying, "Didn’t you say he was merely a guild hall owner?"
"That he is, there’s absolutely no question about it!" Guan Shenghai grew agitated, also starting to panic. Could it be that this man’s identity was more than it seemed, but even so, it would be of no use.
Chen Long quickly became indifferent after hearing this, "Alright, as long as they are just ordinary nouveau riche, there’s no need to be afraid. I’m from Dragon Group, no need to worry about these types of people!"
"That’s good. Brother Long, I’m counting on you!" Guan Shenghai laughed.
Seeing someone actually bidding against them, the faces of the two foreigners turned exceptionally ugly. They had thought that one hundred million would definitely secure the item, but they hadn’t expected someone to suddenly jump in.
"What should we do?"
"We must have this item!"
"Alright, anyway, everything here is ours!"
The two exchanged a smile and continued to raise their bids.
"One hundred and fifty million!"
Without waiting for the auctioneer to speak, Tang Zhong directly said, "Two hundred million!"
"Three hundred million!" the two foreigners shouted.
"Three hundred million and one!" Tang Zhong said.
"Five hundred million!"
"Five hundred million and one!" Tang Zhong continued.
The two foreigners were directly provoked, staring at Tang Zhong with flames of fury in their eyes.
"Big brother, should we continue to bid?"
"No need, everything here is ours, anyway!"
At this moment, Tang Zhong’s aggressive bidding had already alarmed Kunlun; after all, many people from Kunlun recognized who Tang Zhong was. If they knew Tang Zhong needed it, they would have contacted the seller to give the item to Tang Zhong.
Guan Shenghai’s pupils were already wide with disbelief.
"Are you sure this guy is just an ordinary person?" Chen Long asked, pointing at Tang Zhong.
"Yes, I’m sure, no doubt about it. Brother Long, just trust me this once; there’s absolutely no problem!" Guan Shenghai said.
Afterwards, he stared at Tang Zhong, unable to believe how this guy could casually bid five hundred million. When had running a meeting hall become so profitable?
"Even if you can come up with five hundred million, in the end, you are still just a nouveau riche!"
With a bid of five hundred million and one, Tang Zhong’s offer was no longer surpassed by anyone, naturally making him the buyer.
However, using five hundred million to buy a treasure map of uncertain details was seen by many as madness on Tang Zhong’s part.
But Tang Zhong’s thoughts were not on the treasure map he had bought; his gaze fell on the faces of the two foreigners.
The two foreigners also smirked at Tang Zhong, grinning provocatively. Not only that, but they also stretched out their hands, made a gun gesture at Tang Zhong, and shouted "Bang!" which was a clear provocation.
At this moment, the two foreigners were also extremely angry inside; their status often placed them in high positions, and they had never failed to get what they wanted. But today, they had been beaten to it, infuriating them and preparing to retaliate.
And it seemed like the effects of the medicine were about to kick in.
Just as the woman from the auction was about to announce the next item for bidding,
the two men in suits suddenly stood up and leaped onto the stage in a swift movement.
Instantly, all eyes were on them, filled with incomprehension.
The Kunlun disciple saw the two men, slightly taken aback, then smiled and said, "Gentlemen, please take your seats. Let’s not disrupt the order of the auction!"
"Get lost!" the two foreigners shouted aggressively.
With that outburst, everyone knew these two were here to cause trouble.
The Kunlun disciple, having seen a fair share of the world, immediately grew a cold look in her eyes, "Gentlemen, this is Kunlun. I hope you will not cause trouble. Leave now, and Kunlun will not hold it against you; otherwise, we will definitely not let you get away with it!"
"Oh, really? Just based on you, Kunlun?" one of the foreigners sneered.
