Gaia had set the starting bid for the Taia Sword as the same as the final price that Lin Jing had bought the Qixing Longyuan for.
"55 thousand!"
"65 thousand!"
"85 thousand!"
"100 thousand!"
In less than ten minutes, the price of the Taia Sword had rushed up to one hundred thousand gold. The worst part was that none of the old faces had opened their mouths yet.
This one hundred thousand gold price was just a sign of the things to come.
As the price climbed higher, it would be time for the more familiar faces to compete.
"150 thousand!"
The guild leader of Jianqi Zonglai - Yijian Xilai, took the lead to break the silence, adding fifty thousand gold all at once. He instantly set up a barrier that blocked most of the normal players.
"200 thousand!"
The one that bid next was an old rival of Yijian Xilai, Tingyu Floor's Jianqi Leiyin.
When Yijian Xilai heard this price, he looked toward Jianqi Leiyin with a pained and emotional expression on his cold face. Unexpectedly, he gave up on the item.
The ten famous swords were the most fitting weapons for sword wielders.
Yijian Xilai and Jianqi Leiyin, this ex-couple, could be considered the most famous pair of sword wielders in the game.
However, they both ran different guilds.
Hence, they could both be considered the most powerful competitors for the Taia Sword. Yijian Xilai giving up was naturally to give in to Jianqi Leiyin.
It seems like some old feelings still existed between the two.
"What a complicated relationship, ah!"
Ouyang Shuo tilted his head and looked at Jianqi Leiyin. They were in the same suite, as she was part of the Shanhai Alliance. However, he was unable to see any emotion.
The heart of a woman was truly hard to see through.
After Yijian Xilai gave up, it seems like Jianqi Leiyin was bound to win.
"250 thousand gold!"
At this very moment, someone suddenly appeared to spoil the situation. He was the guild leader of Star Alliance, Xingzhe Zichen. Obviously, as a descendant of an aristocratic family, he had the funds and ability to participate in this matter.
Although the development of the Star Alliance in Jingdou was slower than he had expected, thanks to the support of his family, he had managed to gain a stable footing.
Since they had already revealed themselves to the world, Xingzhe Zichen had grown even more ambitious.
His occupation was the hidden occupation - Chi Cultivator. Logically speaking, he had little need for the Taia Sword. As such, no one understood why he had placed a bid.
When Yijian Xilai saw the situation, his eyes froze.
Speaking of which, the two of them were allies, so this act by Xingzhe Zichen made him extremely annoyed.
Even Di Chen could not help but frown when he saw the situation.
For Star Alliance to become stable in Jingdou, they had obviously relied on the full support of Jianqi Zongheng. If not, Shadow Alliance and Yimeng Pavilion, who Shanhai Alliance supported, would have eaten them clean.
At this moment, Xingzhe Zichen went to provoke the old lover of Yijian Xilai.
Was he tired of living?
Di Chen shook his head. For the first time, he started to weigh the pros and cons of his act.
"300 thousand!"
Evidently, Jianqi Leiyin would not accept defeat.
The moment her words sounded out, the entire auction house broke into a huge discussion.
No one had expected the first item to break the three hundred thousand gold mark.
When Ouyang Shuo heard this number, he basically gave up on picking up any scrapes. He knew that he was just here to watch the fun.
Although he belonged to the Yanhuang Alliance camp, Xingzhe Zichen did not share the same suite as Di Chen and the others. Instead, he chose to have his own suite.
At this moment, within the 4th suite, an interesting conversation was occurring.
"Young master, let's stop while we can!"
The one who spoke was a middle-aged man sitting behind Xingzhe Zichen.
"Let me play a little more!"
Xingzhe Zichen grinned. He was sure that Jianqi Leiyin would play on, which was why he was so fearless.
His goal was to rip her off.
This kind of act that harmed others and did not bring any gains to oneself was something that only a person sick in the head could do.
"350 thousand!"
As expected, Xingzhe Zichen raised the price once more.
"400 thousand!"
Jianqi Leiyin was utterly triggered.
This time, the entire hall fell silent. No one had expected for the first auction item to reach such a price.
The guild had money, but money was not waste paper. For purchasing a god weapon that cost four hundred thousand gold, Jianqi Leiyin would definitely face a lot of pressure from within the guild.
After the dust settled, the Taia Sword officially entered the hands of Jianqi Leiyin.
The result of the first item had obviously pleased the auctioneer, and he revealed the second item with a smile on his face. It was actually a small talisman.
"Scattering Bean That Turns into Soldier Talisman. After use, can summon fifty thousand elite troops for half a day. Base price of sixty thousand gold. Similarly, there's no buyout, please make your bids!" The auctioneer announced.
Woosh!
A cold air rose through the venue.
This time, Gaia had really thrown out something unusual. The first two items were both absolutely rare.
Even legendary items had started to appear in the game.
All of a sudden, the eyes of the Lord gamemode players burned with fire.
Based on the definition of the system, the elite forces would be a 7th rank or higher soldier. Currently, amongst all the player territories, there were definitely less than three digits that met such a standard.
Fifty thousand elite troops were enough to decide the outcome of a battle.
The more terrifying aspect was that this fifty thousand could be summoned at any time, which would allow the user to catch their enemy completely off guard. If it was used well, it would be highly efficient and effective.
No wonder they could only last for half a day.
If not, it would truly be too overpowered.
Even so, it was a god item to Lord gamemode players that was worth fighting for.
"200 thousand!"
Just the first bid destroyed the hopes of the normal Lords.
"250 thousand!"
"300 thousand!"
The price of the bid climbed at a terrifying speed.
It would almost certainly break the bidding record of the Taia Sword.
"400 thousand!"
The one that bid was the richest person out of all the Lords - Chun Shenjun.
When Ouyang Shuo heard him bid, he looked at Bai Hua and muttered, "He desperately needs this item!"
"It's a saving grace for him!" Bai Hua replied.
Ouyang Shuo nodded and turned his head back to the auction situation.
"450 thousand!" Wandering Magic made a bid.
Ouyang Shuo noticed that before Wandering Magic made his bid, he had exchanged glances with Xiong Ba.
