As soon as the auction gates opened, various famous families and sects from within and outside the city such as the Hou Family, Geng Family, Song Family, Blue Mountain Sect, Crimson Tiger Sect, and so on, could be seen walking to their respective seats.
After a while, when everyone finished looking for their seats, the auctioneer stepped forward in the stage and said. "Good morning and welcome to everyone to this special occasion of ours. I shan't say any irrelevant stuff, therefore, let us officially start the auction!"
He continued with a loud voice. "The first item of the day is the high-rank Spirit grade {Silver-Frost Saber}, the bidding will start at 50,000 gold coins."
"55,000 gold coins." After he finished, a person within the earth-rank seats immediately shouted.
"60,000 gold coins." Another person followed up.
"70,000 gold coins, don't even bid if y'all don't have any money!" shouted someone aggressively.
"80,000 gold coins! Heh spouting such nonsense, why don't you bid higher then." someone else replied.
"95,000"
"120,000"
...
...
After a long while, the saber was finally won by someone with a bid of 250,000 gold coins.
The auctioneer continued on. "The next item is a mid-rank Earth grade martial art skill {Fiery Blazing Fists}, the bidding will start at 800,000 gold coins."
Now it was the turn of the bidders in the Sky-ranked seats.
"1,000,000 gold coins!" a middle-aged man with fancy clothes shouted.
"1,400,000 gold coins." another middle-aged man with a long beard said with a smirk.
"2,000,000 gold coins!"
"2.5 million!"
"3.5 million!"
...
...
Both of them glared at each other with a smile yet not a smile on their faces.
"4 million."
"4.3 million."
...
...
The bidding continued until an old-woman with a n.o.ble aura around her won the martial skill for 7,000,000 gold coins. Both the middle-aged men at the start, sat down with dejected expressions as they looked towards the old woman who won the martial skill.
The next few items were around high Earth grades to mid King grade items. There was even a supreme king grade spear that was auctioned and was won by a young woman for 6,000 platinum coins. (Note: 6,000 plat coins = 60,000,000 gold coins. But platinum is more of a luxurious currency obviously.)
Tian Long didn't even glance at those items that were auctioned, even the supreme king grade spear wasn't of any importance to him as it wasn't even 1% of the Golden Dragon Spear's worth. He thought 'That reminds me, it seems that I need to start upgrading my spear's grade'. He then checked its status.
______________________________________________
Golden Dragon Spear - Supreme King Grade ( 34% )
(Note: To remind everyone, this spear is always set to supreme rank after every level up hence the "Supreme" beside the King grade.)
______________________________________________
He was able to increase its rank by using apex points to buy items in the store and the pieces of equipment that he found in the Lonely Devilwood Forest.
After thinking for a while, a servant from the auction house reminded him that his pill will be the next item that would be auctioned.
Tian Long then took a look at the people in the Moon-ranked seats and the few ones at the Sun-ranked seats.
He smiled as he thought. 'Finally! I wonder how much I'll be able to earn from this one auction. Hmm in the future it seems that I need to visit higher ranked cities and sell an even higher ranked pill or equipment there...'
"And finally, the moment we've all been waiting for, The supreme-rank Level 5 pill {Tranquill Heart Pill} is here. The bidding will start at a minimum 200,000 platinum coins. The bidding will start now." The auctioneer said with pride as he took out a jade bottle with a white pill inside which was emitting a white cloudy aura.
The gazes of the everyone within the moon and sun ranked seats immediately sharpened upon hearing the auctioneer's words. They all focused their attention on the jade bottle in the stand which they immediately confirmed to be an authentic supreme-rank level 5 pill.
Everyone gasped in astonishment when they landed their eyes on the {Tranquil Heart Pill}, however, they were shocked even more when they heard the price of the pill.
200,000 platinum coins could be said to be 2,000,000,000 gold coins. It was a staggering amount which even some low-rank n.o.ble families in the city couldn't take out even if they sold everything they had. (Note: Spirit coins obviously have way more rare than platinum so they use platinum and gold coins instead of Spirit ones for reference.)
However, the emperor cultivators couldn't even care about that kind of amount of money as they focused their attention on the pill.
'If I'm able to get this pill then I can leap in ranks within the Emperor Transformation stage. I could even use this pill to attack the Life and Death Realm in the future.' This was the thought of every Emperor Transformation cultivators inside the auction house.
After a moment of silence, the bidding war started instantly.
"210,000 platinum coins." Someone within the moon ranked seats said as he tested the waters.
"Ha! To even try to compete here with such meager amount. 250,000 platinum coins." a young looking man around 30 years old arrogantly said.
"Cheh! both you idiots, don't even dream of touching such a level of a pill. 350,000 platinum coins!".
"450,000 platinum coins."
"500,000 platinum coins."
"670,000"
"740,000"
...
...
"1,200,000 platinum coins!" Someone shouted with bloodshot eyes.
"3,000,000 platinum coins. Get out of here, the pill is mine."
"5,000,000 coins."
"6,500,000."

"7,000,000."
...
...
Tian Long smiled within the VIP Sun-ranked room as he heard the money reach the one million mark. However, he knew that this was just the beginning.
After the bidding was around 10,000,000 platinum coins, the emperor cultivators finally entered the war.
"111 spirit coins." An old emperor stage cultivator said. (Note: 111 Spirit Coins = 11 million plat coins. I updated the glossary a bit. It included the currency so check it out.)
All the lower ranked people gasped when they heard a spirit coin has been bid. You have to know, spirit coins could be used by people in the lower ranks to increase their cultivation. All of them treat these kinds of coins as if it was a saint treasure. Yet those old foxes just use them for bidding. All those mortals and lower ranked cultivators thought as they shook their heads in lament.
The bidding continued.
"130 Spirit coins." The sect leader of Blue Mountain Sect raised his number to bid.
"150 spirit coins." The head of the Gu Family said as he raised his number.
"180 spirit coins." A middle-aged Emperor cultivator said.
"200 spirit coins." called by an old woman as she raised her bid.
"400 spirit coins."
"700 spirit coins!"
"1,200 spirit coins."
...
...
The atmosphere within the auction house was so tense that it was as if a war between both the inside and outside powers of the Azure Dragon City could trigger in an instant.
All the lower ranked cultivators had ashen faces as they didn't even dare to breathe out loud.
"5,000 spirit coins."
Suddenly a graceful and calming voice could be heard coming from the few Sun-ranked rooms. Everyone looked up at that #1 Sun Ranked room and they could see a silhouette of a beautiful lady as she called for her bid.
Everyone was silent as they were entranced by the voice as they tried to ponder the ident.i.ty of the bidder.
Tian Long was entranced as well, however, it wasn't because of the voice of the lady or the lady herself. It was because of the 5,000 spirit coins that were bid for the mere 1500 apex points pill.
He laughed loudly within his heart as he imagined all the faces of the people here if they found out that he had countless pills of such a level.
