Chapter 146: Chapter 119: Obtaining the Pill Recipe_2
Translator: 549690339
“There’s no hurry, no hurry.” Lu Yun laughed.
“If you don’t make a move on the first pill recipe, the competition will only get more intense and the prices higher later on.” Duan Qing reminded.
Lu Yun shook his head, “1 don’t think so. Maybe the competition for the first pill recipe is the most intense and has the highest price.”
“Hmm?” Seeing that Lu Yun remained unmoved and spoke confidently, Duan Qing couldn’t help but get curious.
“According to your view, could it be that the later the pill recipe comes, the lower the price will be?”
Lu Yun mysteriously smiled, “Not exactly, you just need to know that now is not the time to raise the price.”
During the two’s conversation, the price of the first pill recipe had already soared to fifty spirit crystals, and it was still rising continuously.
“Fifty-five spirit crystals.”
For a moment, a loud voice drifted from a private room on the second floor, instantly spreading throughout the entire auction hall.
The many martial artists on the first floor were taken aback as this was the first time someone from a private room had placed a bid.
Having a private room indicated that their identity and strength were top-notch in the entire Spirit Martial Prefecture.
Were these people with such identity and strength also competing for a pill recipe now?
More importantly, weren’t they here for the finale treasure of the auction?
Although they were slightly puzzled, someone quickly reacted and immediately raised the price: “Fifty-six spirit crystals.”
“Fifty-seven spirit crystals.”
“Fifty-eight spirit crystals.”
As the auction proceeded, everyone’s bidding pace slowed down. After all, any spirit crystal was very expensive, and the price of the pill recipe had long exceeded most people’s expectations.
“Sixty-five spirit crystals.” A heavy voice from the same private room came once again.
Hearing such a high price, all the martial artists in the hall who were participating in the auction stopped, their faces full of unwillingness.
With fifty-something spirit crystals, they could grit their teeth and come up with them.
However, once it exceeded sixty spirit crystals, many of them couldn’t even take out that many, even if they tightened their belts.
“Forget it, we can’t compete for the first pill recipe. There are still nine more, and 1 still have a good chance.”
After the bid of sixty-five spirit crystals from the private room, the martial artists hesitated for a while and then gave up on raising the price, focusing on the upcoming pill recipes.
“Alright, the distinguished guest in private room number six has offered sixty-five spirit crystals for the first time. Is there any more bidding?”
“Sixty-five spirit crystals for the second time?”
“Sixty-five spirit crystals for the third time?”
“Good, Sold!”
Eventually, Liu Yan hammered down the auction and ended the bidding for the first pill recipe.
“Now we’ll start the auction for the second pill recipe with the same starting price. Each raise must not be lower than one spirit crystal.”
“We, the Huang Family, must not let the second pill recipe slip. With clenched teeth, an old man with a goatee on the first floor said, “Twenty-five spirit crystals!”
“Twenty-six spirit crystals!”
For a time, the sound of bidding rose and fell one after another.
Soon, the price had risen to forty spirit crystals.
Duan Qing, who was at the side, reminded again, “It’s time to make a move on this second pill recipe. If you keep waiting, the price will only get higher.”
Lu Yun shook his head under his mask, “No rush, the timing is not right.”
In the process of auctioning the first pill recipe, he had not done nothing, he had kept an eye on every single raise.
He inferred the bidder’s psychological price and the number of spirit crystals they could take out based on their tone when raising the price and whether they continued to raise later.
Not much later, the auction for the second pill recipe finally ended, and it was eventually sold to a medium-sized family for sixty-four spirit crystals.
Duan Qing looked at Lu Yun doubtfully and wondered, “Incredible, why is the price for the second pill recipe even lower than the first one?”
Next, the bidding for the third pill recipe continued.
It wasn’t long before the third pill recipe was sold for sixty-two spirit crystals.
Another fifteen minutes later, the fourth pill recipe was sold for sixty spirit crystals.
“Damn, you were right! The price of the first pill recipe really was the highest, and the later ones were even lower.” Duan Qing finally couldn’t help but ask curiously, “How did you know that the later the pill recipe gets, the lower the price would be?”
“I never said that.” Lu Yun laughed softly and then focused on the auction stage.
“The fifth pill recipe, start bidding!” Liu Yan smiled, and the audience’s recently calmed emotions were ignited again.
“Twenty-three spirit crystals.” As soon as Liu Yan’s voice fell, someone immediately started raising their placard to bid.
“Twenty-five spirit crystals.”
“Now, it’s my turn to make a move!”
Lu Yun, wearing his mask, smiled faintly, circulated the aggressive aura within his body, and a deep, thick voice drifted out.
“Forty spirit crystals!”
Hearing this voice, many martial artists in the auction hall who were ready to bid were slightly stunned.
Which big shot was this, raising the price so boldly? Was he determined to win?
However, the other competitors were not frightened. They only paused for a moment before someone immediately raised the price.
“Forty-one spirit crystals.”
Just as the first voice of raising the price had fallen, and before others had even opened their mouths, a deep and thick voice sounded once more.
“Fifty spirit crystals!”
Oh, it was that big shot from before, who always raised the price aggressively.
Out of curiosity, they looked back and saw a person wearing a black mask..
