Invincibility starts when I see the BOSS health bar.

Chapter 858 Focus
Because this price is far from what this material should be worth. At least 70,000, 80,000 or even 100,000 taels would be worthy of the rarity of this item and the hard work of promoting it before and after the auction.

however……

No one bid.

Because the person who made the bid is a VIP of the Tianzi Room!
In the entire auction, there is only one Tianzi room.

Although big shots and powerful people would come to the Tianzi Room in the past, the competition among the second floors would not be affected much.

But this time, it’s different!
Because everyone in the capital knew that Master Ouyang came to this auction!
The room that Master Ouyang will be assigned to is naturally the best and most noble Tianzi Room in the underground auction!

So there is no doubt that the person who made the bid this time was none other than the almighty Master Ouyang!
Who dares to bid for this?

A big shot who you normally don't even have time to curry favor with is now bidding against others. Isn't that asking for trouble?

Even those who don't have good eyesight would be nervous and dare not act rashly when seeing the eerie silence at the auction.

In this subtle and strange atmosphere, the storyteller struck the wake-up stick and finalized the ownership of the auction item.

"Congratulations to the distinguished guest from Tianzifang for bidding for 50,000 taels..."

Under normal circumstances, if the price was not as low as expected, the storyteller would have to use it as an excuse to exaggerate the atmosphere and try to sell the next auction item at a high price.

But this time, the one who made the bid was a VIP of the Tianzifang. Unless he thought the person had lived too long, he would not dare to provoke him.

After a brief conclusion, he immediately started promoting the next auction item.

Some losses have to be swallowed with gritted teeth.

What the storyteller understands, the auction naturally understands as well.

However, Master Ouyang's move still shocked and surprised the auction executives behind the scenes.

"How could Master Ouyang..."

"Isn't that sir's only target that ancient formation from the previous dynasty?"

"Everyone, please be patient! This is good news! The items in our auction were chosen by Master Ouyang and bought by him. Doesn't this just prove the level and quality of our auction?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's eyes suddenly lit up.

Yes! Master Ouyang is a well-known big shot who is not interested in anything except battle formations. He is close to being a big shot at the top.

If such a big shot purchased things other than formations at the auction they held, doesn't that mean their auction was recognized and they can even use this matter to publicize it secretly in the future!
As for why they did the publicity in secret, it was because they were afraid that Master Ouyang would come knocking on their door. It would be fine if they did it secretly by borrowing Master Ouyang's name, but if they publicized it widely, if he came knocking on their door one day, they would not know what had happened to them.

In any case, this is a good thing to gild the value of the auction.

So after changing their mindset, everyone couldn't help but show joy on their faces. This was a good sign of prosperity and it became clear.

The auction executives were happy, but the other visitors and VIPs on the first and second floors were all confused.

This one auction item is fine, but what if Master Ouyang from the Tianzi Room on the second floor bids again? Will they still bid?

"Now, everyone is welcome to bid!"

After the storyteller finished introducing the auction items, the auction session began.

But the strange thing was that no one among the people below made a bid.

Everyone stared at each other, and for a moment no one dared to do anything rash.

The silent scene immediately stunned the storyteller.

This, this, this, what is going on?
Why is there no one bidding? Then the auction item will be unsold...

"Dear guests, this item is extraordinary. It would cost at least this much outside. The starting price at the auction today is just under 30,000 taels. If it were me, I would have made a bid to get it..."

The storyteller continued to talk incessantly, trying his best to delay the auction item from entering the stage of being unsold.

But ever since the price of the top-class house on the second floor was put up, the atmosphere at the scene has been a little off.

Seeing that the auction item was really going to fail, everyone looked at each other in amazement, and finally someone carefully raised a sign.

"Thirty-one thousand taels! Okay, someone finally made an offer! Thirty-one thousand taels, is there anyone who can offer higher?"

The storyteller was so excited that he almost jumped up. This stagnant auction finally saw some changes.

And as the first person made a trembling bid, everyone involuntarily looked towards the second floor.

One second, two seconds, three seconds...

No one made a bid, and the man from the Tianzi Room did not make another bid.

Everyone's anxious hearts suddenly relaxed.

"Thirty-five thousand taels!"

"Why are you in such a hurry? I'll give you 40,000 taels!"

"Forty thousand taels is enough to make a fuss? Forty-five thousand taels!"

Prices began to rise steadily, and the enthusiasm on the scene returned all of a sudden.

The storyteller was very happy when he saw the enthusiastic bidders.

I almost lost my job.

He looked towards the second floor with lingering fear.

Several auction items were then sold in succession, all without any problems.

until……

"Fifty thousand taels."

Another bid!

The terrifying Tianzi Room on the second floor strikes again!
The storyteller widened his eyes and looked towards the second floor in horror.

Lord Ouyang, please be kind and give me a chance to live. No one dares to match your offer!
This is indeed the case. Such precious material was quickly taken away at an extremely low price that was almost the starting price.

Seeing the auction staff taking the items away and sending them to the second floor, everyone present said they were not jealous, but that was a lie.

Even if we ignore the value of the auction item itself, this ridiculously low price will definitely make a profit if you sell it anywhere.

This is this...

Everyone looked at each other.

Lu Fu, who was sitting in the front row, even clenched his fists secretly.

He was a young and inexperienced man, and now the thing he had been ordered to take pictures of had not yet appeared. If he did, he would have to fight even if the other party was Master Ouyang.

Fortunately, the family did not send anyone to accompany him this time, otherwise, if they knew what he was thinking, they would not let him do such a thing even if they broke his legs.

To offend Master Ouyang would mean a catastrophe for the family, so how could he be allowed to act on impulse?

The next few auction items, the top room on the second floor, were sold several times.

Whenever it is put on the market, no one will bid for it.

The storyteller was now a little frightened by the distinguished guest of the Tianzi Room. He was so hesitant that he did not dare to start introducing the next auction item, and his eyes kept looking towards the curtain behind him.

There, stood the top executives of the auction, but they did not react at all, so the storyteller had no choice but to continue.

"The next auction item is the Dragon Bone Bewitching Grass..."

After a eloquent introduction, everyone below immediately became eager to try.

Not for any other reason, just because this thing, for warriors, especially those who focus on bones and physique, is a top-grade natural treasure and precious herb.

So, the moment the storyteller finished his introduction...

"Fifty thousand taels! This item is what our Liao family is determined to obtain!"

This is what it means to occupy a spot.

There are also skills in auctions. Loudly mentioning your background and offering a high price to show your determination will surely scare off those who are just trying to get a bargain.

This was indeed the case. The Liao family was somewhat well-known in the capital, so some people quietly withdrew from the competition, but more people...

"Don't other people want what you want? Seventy thousand taels!"

Increase the price! Crazy increase the price!

But really good things are worth such a crazy price increase!
"Seventy-one thousand taels!"

"Seventy-five thousand taels!"

"Seventy-eight thousand taels!"

Prices began to rise steadily, and the atmosphere on site was very hot.

The storyteller's face lit up and he shouted out the price excitedly, arousing the desire of others to buy.

But just when everyone was excited and actively participating in the auction...

"Ninety thousand taels."

Take action!!

The VIP of Tianzifang made a move again!

The originally frenetic scene suddenly cooled down as if it was hit by a snowstorm.

The reason is simple: no one dares to bid.

Tianzifang is really lawless. They keep bidding but no one is bidding. Can they still allow auctions to do business?
The storyteller felt resentful, but there was nothing he could do. He was in a high position and had great power. It was normal that no one dared to mess with him. But this was an auction, the other party had a special status, and the good stuff was right in front of him, so he should make a move, right?

The storyteller looked anxiously at the other people present.

Everyone who met his gaze subconsciously avoided his sight.

The people on the second floor cannot be relied upon.

The higher the status of a person, the closer he is to Lord Ouyang, and the more he dares not offend him.

On the contrary, if the gap between the prices on the first floor is too big, only those who are ignorant of the world will bid to compete.

Think about why you came here, taking the huge sum of money given by your family, isn't it just for this moment!

The storyteller wanted to speak out his heart, but he couldn't. He could only delay the end of the auction, prolonging each word just to draw out a bidder. That's when...

"Ninety-five thousand taels!"

Make an offer!
Someone actually made a bid!!

The storyteller's voice was distorted with excitement. Finally, someone dared to stand up against the lord of the Tianzifang!

That's how it should be, that's how it should be. If no one follows suit when the man on the second floor makes a bid, then there's no profit at all from the auction. Drive up the price!
"Ninety-five thousand taels! Ninety-five thousand taels, and... OK! The first-class room on the second floor, one hundred thousand taels!!"

The storyteller was excited, while everyone else turned their eyes in the direction of the person who had made the bid.

That is... the young master of the Lu family, Lu Fu!
He was the one making the bid!

Although they were wearing white masks, everyone had figured out the identities of those people in the front row on the first floor shortly after the auction officially began.

Just as the greater the fame, the harder it is to hide, the Lu family is more or less famous in this circle, and coupled with their arrogant behavior before the auction, they had already been marked.

However, no one expected that this guy would dare to compete with Master Ouyang in price at this moment.

"One hundred and one hundred thousand taels!"

Ignoring the gazes of others, Lu Fu just kept bidding.

Under the disguise of coldness and indifference, there is unwillingness!
He was determined to get this item, as it would be of great help to his own cultivation method.

However, the big shot who owns the Tianzi room on the second floor is still raising the price.

"One hundred and fifty thousand taels!"

A price of hundreds of thousands is not high for a good thing, and it is not even the price it should have.

But the bidder was Master Ouyang, so the pressure was extremely great.

So apart from Lu Fu, no one at the scene was willing to compete with the price, not even one person was willing to run with him.

"One hundred and seventy thousand!"

Lu Fu made a stubborn bid, as if he was willing to risk everything!
And beside him, someone had already begun to dissuade him.

"Stop it! Lu family kid! Do you want the Lu family to be destroyed?"

"Bidding with that gentleman? Do you really think you have a chance of winning? If that gentleman leaks a little money, it will smash your Lu family to death!"

They wanted to wake Lu Fu up and also wanted to please that adult.

Lu Fu knew everything, but he had prepared for a long time, saved a lot of money, and even persuaded his family before he came to this stage and to this place.

Now that the thing is right in front of him, he will give it a try no matter what!
"Two hundred thousand taels!"

The ridiculously high price has also brought the competition into a white-hot stage, and the response from above is...

"Two hundred and one thousand taels."

Calm, cold, but... always superior to him.

Lu Fu could still make an offer and raise the price, but he... hesitated.

Because as others said, if it was something that adult wanted, no matter what price he offered, he would not be able to match that adult, as they were not on the same level financially!

The playful behavior of the big guys is already a heavy burden for the small guys.

This pressure made Lu Fu almost unable to breathe.

The figures of the people around seemed to be constantly lengthening, turning into long dark shadows, with scarlet light in both eyes, emitting nightmarish demonic whispers.

The surrounding space seemed to be distorted and stretched, as if falling into a dream.

The huge pressure made Lu Fu sweat profusely on his forehead and his spirit was tense.

"Twenty, two hundred and fifty thousand taels!"

"Two hundred and sixty thousand taels."

He had just finished making an offer when the latter followed up with another.

Two hundred and sixty thousand taels, he could have continued to bid, but he... was crushed by the pressure.

humiliation.

The adult on the second floor simply wanted to humiliate me!
He never wanted this dragon bone temptation grass, he just wanted to humiliate me! It must be like this!
Otherwise, why would he only add 10,000 yuan to the price and never raise the price any further?

Why do you always stick to your quote and never fall behind?

Everything is just the bad taste of the big shots!

No matter how conceited he was, he didn't dare to think that he could really buy this item from that adult.

"Let go, this is a fearless struggle..."

"How can I let go? With the Dragon Bone Sensing Grass, my strength will be able to reach a new level!"

The two emotions were pulling back and forth in his mind, causing Lu Nei's face to become distorted, and at this moment...

"...Two hundred and sixty thousand two thrice! Let us congratulate the distinguished guest from the Tianzi Room for winning this item!"

The thunderous applause from all around brought Lu Fu back to his senses.

While he was thinking, struggling, confused, and at a loss, the item had already been bought away by the adult on the second floor...
