Crossing the Cultivation Realm: Two Souls Coexist

Qian Xiaoxiao's voice echoed in the auction hall, and she skillfully mobilized the emotions of everyone present.

When the atmosphere was just right, she began to announce the starting price of the war puppet.

"Because this item is special, you can only bid with Spirit Stones. But don't worry, Qingmu Chamber of Commerce provides a currency exchange service for Spirit Stones. If you want to exchange Spirit Stones, just contact Qingmu Chamber of Commerce!"

There was a hint of playfulness in her voice, but she also did not forget to advertise the Chamber of Commerce.

"The starting price is 10 low-grade spirit stones. Each bid must be at least 10 low-grade spirit stones. Bidding begins now!"

As the starting price was announced, a buzz of discussion erupted in the auction hall.

This price put pressure on many ordinary practitioners. Spirit stones were precious cultivation resources for them, and they were usually used to absorb and improve their cultivation. Few people were so extravagant as to use spirit stones for trading.

However, auctions are always full of deep pockets, and some strong bidders were not deterred by the price, but instead participated more actively in the bidding.

The price rose rapidly, and each price increase was 10 low-grade spirit stones, which was equivalent to 5 gold coins. For ordinary people, it was undoubtedly a huge sum of money.

Hu Qing and Qingyin sat in the box, quietly observing the bidding below.

They knew that the value of this war puppet was far more than the price, but for them, now was not the best time to make a move.

The bidding was carried out among some powerful monks. They either had the support of powerful forces behind them or were a force themselves and did not care about the consumption of spirit stones.

As the price continued to rise, some of the original bidders began to withdraw, while the remaining people competed more fiercely for the war puppet.

After a fierce competition, the price of the war puppet reached 110 low-grade spirit stones.

The price seemed very expensive, but Hu Qing knew that the people in the box had not started bidding yet, and it would probably be even more expensive later.

"150 low-grade spirit stones!"

Red-gold fonts appeared on the glass of the south box, emitting a faint glow.

The bid from the South Box was like a bombshell, causing a huge sensation in the auction house.

The price of 150 low-grade spirit stones discouraged many people who were originally interested in bidding. Such a high price was not something that ordinary people could afford.

However, just when everyone thought that the bidding for the war puppet was about to come to an end, another voice ignited the bidding flames again.

"I'll offer 160 low-grade spirit stones!"

Someone in the audience reluctantly bid 160 low-grade spirit stones, trying to challenge the leading position of the South Box.

Hu Qing was observing the situation in the east box and felt that this was an appropriate time to take action.

He took a deep breath and quoted a price of 180 low-grade spirit stones, a price that caused a low exclamation in the auction hall.

But the bidding war did not end there. Qin Fen from the west box also joined the battle. He directly bid 2 medium-grade spirit stones. This price instantly brought the bidding to a new level.

The value of a medium-grade spirit stone far exceeds that of a low-grade spirit stone. Qin Fen took action immediately after Hu Qing made his bid, which undoubtedly showed that he was still targeting Hu Qing.

The bids from the three main boxes made everyone in the audience stop bidding. Now it was their battlefield, and small figures like them should not mess around.

The people in the South Box also seemed to be excited by Qin Fen's bid. They raised the price to 3 medium-grade spirit stones without hesitation. This price shocked everyone present.

The pace of bidding suddenly accelerated, jumping directly from the bid of 10 low-grade spirit stones to 1 medium-grade spirit stone.

There is a gap of 10 times between them!

Qin Fen did not show any weakness. He immediately offered 4 medium-grade spirit stones, a price that was already unbelievably high.

The atmosphere in the auction hall was extremely tense, and everyone held their breath, waiting to see what would happen next.

Hu Qing sat in the east box with a wry smile on his face.

He knew that his financial resources could not compete with Qin Fen and the bidders in the South Box, and there was no point in continuing to bid.

But he didn't want Qin Fen to get this war puppet, so he decided to adopt another strategy - to make trouble.

"6 mid-grade spirit stones!"

Hu Qing decided to raise the price first. After all, if no one wanted it, he would still make a profit.

Qin Fen sat in the west box, his face gloomy. He hadn't expected the bidder in the east box to be so difficult, constantly confronting him during the bidding.

As prices continued to rise, his patience wore thin.

Finally, after taking a deep breath, Qin Fen made a decision and quoted a shocking price:

"10 mid-grade spirit stones!"

This price was like a bombshell, causing a huge shock in the auction house.

Everyone present was shocked by the price, which was far beyond their expectations.

For a moment, the venue became silent, and everyone was waiting to see what would happen next.

The bidder in the South Box was obviously also shocked by Qin Fen's bid, but he did not give up.

He used his spiritual power to change his voice, making it sound unusually hoarse, in order to hide his identity, and spoke directly:

"I'm offering 15 mid-grade spirit stones now, Mr. Qin. If you raise the price, I won't accept it immediately and I'll give it to you."

Qin Fen's eyes flashed with joy when he heard this. He knew that the other party was testing him and giving him a chance to withdraw.

Qin Fen seized the opportunity without hesitation and quickly made an offer:

"16 mid-grade spirit stones!"

He did not intend to spend too many spirit stones in this auction. If he could get the war puppet at this price, that would naturally be the best.

However, Hu Qing didn't intend to let Qin Fen succeed so easily. He sat in the east box, a sly look in his eyes.

Hu Qing knew that although he was not as financially resourceful as Qin Fen, he still had his own advantages in this auction.

After all, the barefoot are not afraid of the ones wearing shoes, so he decided to make another move and create some trouble for Qin Fen:

"17 mid-grade spirit stones!"

Hu Qing's bid made the atmosphere in the venue tense again.

Qin Fen frowned. He didn't expect the people in the east box to be so persistent.

Qian Xiaoxiao stood on the auction table, a gleam in her eyes. As an auctioneer, she had a clear understanding of the situation on the scene.

The higher the price of the goods she auctions, the more beneficial it is for her. Not only can she get a lot of commission to improve her own strength, but it can also increase her status in the Chamber of Commerce.

She knew that this auction had turned into a contest between Hu Qing and Qin Fen.

She decided to stir up the fire a little more, and with a soft bang of the hammer, she announced:

"17 mid-grade spirit stones, once!"

"17 hits..."

"I'll offer you 20 middle-grade spiritual stones!"

Qin Fen's heart was bleeding. He could have gotten it with 16 mid-grade spirit stones, but after the people in the east box interfered, he now had to spend 20 mid-grade spirit stones.

Hu Qing knew that his goal had been achieved, and bidding again might cause Qin Fen to give up, and he would have no money to buy it, so he decided to give up the bid.

Just when Qin Fen thought he was about to get the war puppet, something unexpected happened.
