"Second auction item, Soul Cultivator's technique. Starting price, one million gold coins."

As Shang Fei's voice fell, the entire auction ground descended into silence.

Quite a number of people shook their heads when they heard the price. Clearly, most people were not too keen on spending a million to try their luck.

In fact, in terms of value, if this item was useful, even five million gold coins wouldn't be much. After all, being able to become a Soul Cultivator was something most martial artists would dream of, but the chances of that happening were too low, so low that it was almost impossible. Thus, the current situation could not be avoided.

After a while, the entire auction place was still silent. Shang Fei shook his head helplessly. However, he did know that among the items auctioned, this item was the hardest to sell.

Therefore, he was prepared to open his mouth again after musing for a moment, in an attempt to arouse some people's interest.

However, just as he was about to open his mouth, a young voice suddenly sounded out in the auction ground.

"One million one hundred thousand gold coins."

A smile as if a heavy burden had been lifted as he looked at the box where the voice had originated from. Currently, it was the start of the auction, and if there were to be a flurry of auctions, it would deal a great blow to the atmosphere that was about to arise. Fortunately, he did not need to worry about it.

When this somewhat calm voice sounded out, it instantly attracted quite a few surprised gazes. As they stared at the booth, private conversations broke out.

"Looks like there are people who are still hoping for a fluke and want to give it a try."

"Such a young voice, he must be the son of some great power. Heh, it's normal for such a character to lose a million words."

However, most people were not optimistic. There were even some teasing remarks. Clearly, in the eyes of the crowd, this one million and one hundred thousand gold coins were definitely wasted.

In another booth, when Luo Qingtian and his son heard the price, their eyes narrowed.

"Father, this voice is definitely from that fellow Cang Yun. He seems to have taken a fancy to this item. Should we snatch it away?" Rosella asked with a sinister glint in his eyes.

"No need to fight over it, raise the price a little, don't let him get it so easily, this thing is useless to anyone, just letting that old thing Cang Yuan Feng get it with some money." Cang Yuanfeng pondered for a moment, and answered craftily.

Hearing this, Rosella's eyes lit up and she nodded with a sinister smile.

"One million one hundred thousand gold coins, does anyone else want to bid?" On the stone platform, Shang Fei asked with a smile.

The auction also remained silent. Seeing this, Cang Yun, who was in the box, smiled and sighed in relief. If one could obtain this item at the lowest price, one would not lose too much by being unable to cultivate.

However, just when everyone thought that no one would raise the bid, a mocking voice suddenly sounded from another private box.

"One million three hundred thousand."

As the voice sounded out, the crowd was momentarily stunned before a series of loud exclamations broke out.

Countless gazes moved between the two boxes that were bidding, and their expressions immediately became somewhat interesting.

"It seems like enemies have met. This is going to be a good show."

"Heh, it seems that the enmity between the two families is not small for a useless thing like this to raise the price."

The crowd was in a flurry of discussion. This kind of thing was not uncommon in the auction houses, and with just a little bit of thinking, most people could already guess the general gist of it.

"That old bastard Luo Qingtian!"

Cang Yuanfeng could not help but curse angrily. He was not the least bit unfamiliar with the voice of his sworn enemy, Luo Qingtian. And the latter did this because he clearly did not want Cang Yun to easily take down what he had set his sights on.

Compared to Cang Yuanfeng's anger, Cang Yun's expression did not change much. This price was still within his range to accept, so he once again said calmly, "One million and five hundred thousand gold coins."

"1.7 million gold coins." However, Luo Qingtian's side didn't hesitate to increase the bid again … …

The atmosphere in the auction house became even more intense. This intense fight for the opportunity obviously attracted a lot of attention.

The price had increased by six hundred thousand in a short amount of time. This was not a great burden to the Heaven's Canghai Realm, but it had also aroused his anger. He said to Cang Yun in a focused voice, "You only need to make a bid, I want to see what abilities this Netherworld has."

"One million eight hundred thousand." With Cang Yuanfeng's words, Cang Yun did not hesitate at all. He had to obtain this Soul Cultivation Law no matter what!

"One million nine hundred thousand." Luo Qingtian pondered for a while before continuing to raise the price.

"Two million." Cang Yun's tone was still calm, and no one could tell what he was feeling.

Once this price was announced, the entire auction house turned silent. Following which, countless gazes turned to the box that Luo Qingtian was in. Within the box, a playful voice finally sounded out: "It seems that you are truly determined to win. Then, I will no longer be in love with you."

"Thank you very much. Even if you are so kind, I will still repay you." Cang Yun replied calmly.

These words once again attracted the attention of many. With this pair of enemies, it seemed that the auction would not be so dull.

"That man is really annoying." In the box, Zhou Xian`er's pretty face was filled with indignation as she spoke. The original one million gold actually doubled in value. This was not a small amount.

"A feud between two clans is unavoidable." Cang Yun laughed indifferently. There were no restrictions in the auction house to change one's voice, so if the Chou family heard it, they could only blame themselves. This was clearly a 'loophole' that had been deliberately left behind by the auction house for profit.

"Even though I said that, I was still tricked by that old man. I am truly displeased." Compared to Zhou Xian'er, Cang Yuanfeng was even more enraged. Money was one aspect, but what he cared about the most was being made a fool of by his sworn enemy.

"Dad, just open up a bit. At worst, we can just return them when they make a move, won't that solve the problem?" Cang Yun smiled and said.

Hearing that, Cang Yuanfeng nodded, and the anger in his heart had finally dissipated quite a bit.

While they were conversing, a young lady, who was dragging a jade plate, knocked on the door and walked in: "Esteemed guests, these are the items that you have obtained from the auction. Please accept them!"

Taking out the ancient scroll from the jade plate, Cang Yuan Feng handed two golden colored cards over to the service personnel. These cards were commonly used in the continent, and a golden colored card represented a million gold coins.

After the girl had left, Cang Yuanfeng smiled as he tossed the ancient scroll to Cang Yun, saying, "Two million gold coins. You brat, you have to make a name for yourself, or else you'll have some good fruits to eat."

"Hehe, I'll do my best!" Cang Yun smiled in embarrassment. He did not have absolute confidence in this item and naturally did not dare to speak too confidently. However, for the sake of that Battle Puppet, he would definitely go all out.
