Game Cultivation World: I'm really playing games

Fortunately, Xue Tianhan created a cliff-like price difference with just one move, far ahead of other players who finished in the second.

There were so many people at the scene, and there were only eight items in one round of auction. Many people noticed the argument between Seat 10 and Seat 235, and that Seat 236 was dominating the crowd.

Someone said, "Is the person in seat 236 a nouveau riche?"

"He must be a country bumpkin who has never attended an auction?" someone echoed.

"Who says it's not true? How can he bid like that? The item's price is already doubled, and he still offers an unbeatable price to beat the competition. Isn't that brilliant?"

"He's stupid and has a lot of money!"

……

"Xiao Qi, what's wrong with Tianhan? Even if he has money, he shouldn't do this. He spends several times the price to bid for things. How wasteful! Or does he simply not know the value of the auction items?" Instructor Ye also didn't understand Xue Tianhan's behavior, so he pulled Xiao Qi towards her and said.

"Instructor, Tianhan discussed the offer with Sister Qing before making the bid, so he knows the value of the item."

"Isn't that ridiculous? Your sister doesn't care?" Knowing the value of the item and still paying double for it, Instructor Ye couldn't help but suspect Xue Tianhan was out of her mind. But no matter what, Xue Tianhan was still her student, and as an instructor, she had the obligation to stop Xue Tianhan's wasteful behavior. She then said to Xiao Qi:

"Well, talk to Tianhan and tell him to tell me if he likes anything. Tell him not to bid randomly. I'll buy it for him, and then he can transfer the money to me."

"Instructor, Tianhan didn't bid randomly. Everything he bought was worth the money," Xiaoqi explained.

"What are you talking about? That top-grade dragon scale armor is only worth three thousand low-grade spirit stones at most. Even if it seems to have a little more spiritual charm than other top-grade treasures, spending an extra two thousand low-grade spirit stones on it is enough to make a gamble. But look at how much Tianhan bid, fifty thousand. A full fifty thousand low-grade spirit stones. What an outrageous price!"

"But instructor, the bid had already reached 32,000 before Tianhan made his bid!" Xiaoqi defended.

"That's all because of you arguing with others. Oh, I forgot about you. You should control yourself at the auction and never argue with others. Some people are agents of the auction house, deliberately driving up the price. If you follow their lead, you'll be the only one who loses in the end."

"I understand, but the things Tianhan likes all have a history. For example, this armor contains a drop of dragon's blood, which can help Sister Qing improve her realm to a higher level."

"What did you say? There is dragon blood? How did you know?" Instructor Ye was a little shocked. If that was the case, then the 50,000 low-grade spirit stones were definitely worth it.

"I don't know about this. Tianhan and Sister Qing said so." Xiaoqi replied, omitting Xiaohuang's contribution.

While Xiao Qi was chatting with Instructor Ye, the auction had entered its third round, this time featuring eight unusual stones of varying sizes. They were called unusual stones because, like rough jade, they were covered in a thick outer layer, making it impossible to see what lay within. However, they all came from the same source: the depths of the Xishan Karst Cave.

I only heard Youyou say: "As everyone knows, the Xishan Cave was formed hundreds of thousands of years ago. Some people say that it is the cave of ancient immortals and contains all kinds of treasures.

However, there are many dangers and restrictions inside, so many monks go in to explore what's going on, but only a few can come out alive.

Therefore, under the baptism of time, the contents were encased in lava. Lava is hard and difficult to refine, so to reveal the contents, one must carefully and slowly decompose them. Some rare stones yield fine treasures, while others are just stones. As a result, many people are reluctant to decompose them directly, and instead trade them in the raw form.

What I can guarantee is that the eight strange stones here all came from inside, and they contain the aura of the cave, so they can't be fake. So everyone can bid with confidence, the starting price is one thousand low-grade spirit stones."

"Gambling on stones? Someone on a certain game has integrated this kind of transaction into the game! Xiao Huang, can you tell?"

"Master, these stones are covered with thick lava, and the distance is so far. I only know that three of the stones have the aura of treasures, but I don't know what they are specifically." Xiao Huang said weakly.

After all, even gods can hardly tell the quality of jade, so it’s good enough that Xiao Huang can tell that there is something inside. Xue Tianhan asked Green Snake Lady again: “Sister Qing, what do you think?”

"I don't know much about this strange stone, and I have no idea what's inside it, so it's difficult for me to make a bid. If you want to play with it, just look at the bids and buy one to practice." Madam Green Snake shook her head and said.

"Okay, Xiao Huang, which lot are you talking about?"

"Numbers 17, 20, and 24. But if you have to choose one of the three, I suggest you take number 24."

"Why, because it's the biggest?"

"No, Master, the auras of treasures I sense vary in strength. I can only say that the aura of No. 24 is much stronger than the other two."

"Okay, let's take a look first. It's hard to make a move this time without an estimate. By the way, why don't we go wash our hands and eat something first." Xue Tianhan had to take Xiao Huang with him, so it was inconvenient for him to eat, and he hadn't had lunch yet.

"Great, great!" Xiao Huang said excitedly when he heard that there was food again.

"Xiao Qi, do you want to go eat something together?"

"No, I've already eaten my rations. You can go with Xiao Huang. I'll keep an eye on the 24th for you."

"Okay, I'll be right back."

Xue Tianhan had originally planned to go outside the auction house to have lunch, but just as he reached the door, Xiao Huang called him over: "Master, there's someone I know."

"What acquaintance?"

"They are the ones who chased us in the deep forest before." Xiao Huang didn't know how to describe Huang Yi and the others, so he could only speak based on his memory.

"Yes, it's them. They found this place?"

"They should be. They are hiding behind the flower bed at the door, watching people coming in and out furtively."

"Then we'll have to bear with it for a while. Let's go to the stairs and eat some dry food." Xue Tianhan said after thinking for a while. The auction had just started not long ago, so it would be better not to cause trouble.

"Ah! No, dry food doesn't taste good." Xiao Huang said aggrievedly. If he really wanted to eat dry food, he would have eaten his fill when Xiao Qi and the others were eating, and he wouldn't have come out with Xue Tianhan now.

"Don't worry, there are still meat buns in the space."

"That's good, that's good!"

……

Soon, Xue Tianhan finished eating and returned to his seat with Xiao Huang. This round of bidding was still in full swing.

"Tianhan, you're back. I don't know why the bid for this strange stone is so unexpectedly high." As soon as Xue Tianhan sat down, Xiaoqi came over and said.

"There's still some time, no rush, let me take a look first."

There were eight stones on site, and the bid for each stone was over 20,000 yuan, with numbers 17 and 20 exceeding 30,000 yuan.

"These people are crazy. If it turns out to be empty, it would be a waste of so many spirit stones." Xue Tianhan couldn't help but complain.

"Who said it wasn't? They are really a bunch of gamblers. What should we do? Are we going to bet on the 24th?" Xiao Qi agreed.

"Forget about the others. I still want the one on the 24th." Xue Tianhan is not short of money now, so it's nice to buy one to play with and satisfy his curiosity.

Time quickly came to the last few seconds. Number 24's bid reached 24,000, and Xue Tianhan directly lowered it to 30,000.

Xiao Qi originally had no intention of participating in this round of auction, but when she saw the person in seat 10 bid 35,000 for seat 20, she raised the bid by 40,000.

After this round, Xue Tianhan successfully bid for number 24, but Xiaoqi was beaten down by someone with a price of 45,000.

"Hmph, Young Master's No. 235 is causing trouble again. Luckily I saw it and I paid 45,000 to suppress it." The person in seat No. 11 took credit to Shi Potianjing.

"Very good, you did a good job this time. You finally won back a game." Shi Potianjing said happily.

Little did she know that Xiao Qi was also very happy. It was obvious that Seat 11 was in cahoots with Seat 10; how could she not see that? She felt such a sense of accomplishment to have successfully made the other party spend an extra ten thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Next is the fourth round of auction. This time it is still a strange stone, but it is a little different from the previous ones. This time there is a window, and you can clearly see that there is something inside, but it is not clear what it is and whether it is complete.

There is only one thing that is certain, these eight strange stones are extremely expensive, and the starting price starts at 10,000 low-grade spirit stones.

"Xiao Huang, there is a small window in this stone. Can you identify what's inside this time?" Xue Tianhan said as he carried Xiao Huang to the table again.

“Yes, Master, don’t worry, the presence of someone inside the small window is very obvious.

Number 25 is a piece of purple crystal. The size is unknown, but judging from its aura, it should not be big.

Number 26 is an 800-year-old ginseng, but due to the poor storage environment, its medicinal properties should not be much left.

Number twenty-seven is a top-grade precious pill in a porcelain bottle.

Number 28 is a thousand-year-old Scrophulariaceae placed in a jade box. This is a great treasure, master, please be sure to take a picture of it.

There is also number 29, which is a complete elixir in a jade box.

The rest are just trifles, not worth mentioning, and item number 32 is just an empty jade bottle."

"Sir, the Ten Thousand Years Scrophularia is a miraculous elixir that defies all odds and is priceless, so just bid as high as you can.

As for the elixir number 29, while its function is still unknown, its value is several times higher than a spiritual weapon, so it's worth at least 50,000 low-grade spirit stones," Madam Green Snake analyzed.

"Okay, I know what to do."

"It's cold, how is it?" Xiao Qi asked.

"I will bid high for number 28, and I will bid around 50,000 low-grade spirit stones for number 29."

"How about number 32? I see a very tempting emerald emerald in that window."

"It's just an empty bottle, it's worthless."

"Ha! Then I understand!" Xiao Qi said with a chuckle.
