Chapter 597 Flying Tiger Cub
When Manager Liu heard that Zhong Ran had another elixir she was willing to put up for auction, he immediately arranged for an appraiser to authenticate it and also quickly reported it to Baili Duojin.
"4.8 billion top-grade spirit stones, the first time we've used 4.8 billion top-grade spirit stones."
The female host's voice trembled with barely suppressed emotion, echoing throughout the auction hall and seemingly resonating in everyone's hearts.
"Four billion top-grade spirit stones, second time. Are there any seniors who would like to raise the bid?"
"This is the first Dragon Ascension Pill. The bidding for the subsequent Dragon Ascension Pills will definitely be even more intense."
The expressions on everyone's faces changed. They all knew that the competition would be even fiercer later on, but they also felt that those who had the ability had already won, so things should get better later on.
"4.8 billion for the third time! Congratulations to the senior in the No. 13 Purple Gold Box for winning the first Dragon Ascension Pill with 4.8 billion top-grade spirit stones."
The female host made the final decision, her hands trembling with excitement.
This was only the middle of the auction, far from the grand finale, and it had already fetched such a high price.
These are all part of her achievements, and she's entitled to a bonus.
After the decision was finalized, everyone inexplicably breathed a sigh of relief.
Zhong Ran's smile was particularly radiant, and even the people around her were excited.
She was thinking again that the value of the Dragon Ascension Pill was so much higher than that of the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk.
Is the Millennium Spirit Milk really that worthless?
Mu Jinning seemed to know what she was thinking and chuckled, "It's already quite good that the first item fetched such a value; the next two drops will definitely be even better."
"However, a drop or two of the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk is indeed not as effective as the Dragon Ascension Pill for those old men."
Zhong Ran said thoughtfully, "It's alright, this is already very good."
She's not an ungrateful person; she only made 300 million per drop when she sold them to those old men before.
There's also a Dragon Ascension Pill and two drops of Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk; it should fetch a good price at auction.
With the other pills included, I wonder if they'll be enough for her to advance?
"The next item up for auction is a cub of a ninth-tier magical beast, the Flying Tiger. Everyone knows the benefits of ninth-tier magical beasts, so I won't go into details. The starting bid is 30 million high-grade spirit stones."
As soon as the female host finished speaking, two middle-aged men carried a specially made iron cage onto the auction stage.
Inside the iron cage lay a cute little tiger. The tiger wasn't a majestic golden color, but rather gray, its entire body completely gray without a single stray hair.
Its eyes were half-closed, and it lay motionless in the iron cage, looking listless.
"Is this a flying tiger?" someone below questioned. After all, few people had ever seen a ninth-tier magical beast, and this little tiger cub didn't have wings, so it was normal for people to question it.
What if it's just an ordinary tiger cub, but we spent a lot of money on it? Wouldn't that be a huge loss?
The woman smiled brightly, in high spirits because of the high price of the Dragon Ascension Pill.
"First of all, the Qinglong Chamber of Commerce never does anything like passing off fakes as genuine."
"Secondly, most beast tamers should be able to tell what bloodline a cub has."
"Furthermore, if you still don't believe me, I can tell you the whereabouts of the Flying Tiger, and you can go and see for yourselves whether it's true or not."
"However, Flying Tiger has just lost his cub and is probably still on the verge of exploding with rage, so the seniors who are going there should be careful."
A ninth-tier magical beast is equivalent to a powerful being in the Tribulation Transcending stage.
There are very few experts at the Tribulation Transcending stage on the entire continent.
The same applies to ninth-tier magical beasts.
Some of the people below hesitated, but some of the bolder ones directly made bids.
"Fifty million high-grade spirit stones."
Those who directly bid were those who trusted the Azure Dragon Chamber of Commerce; their reputation and credibility spoke for themselves.
Moreover, even Transcending Tribulation level experts are unwilling to provoke a ninth-tier magical beast.
However, if a cub is raised properly, it can definitely become a formidable force.
Moreover, Warcraft has extremely high loyalty, and since we grew up together, our loyalty is even higher.
Even Zhong Ran was somewhat tempted, and looked at Zhong Xiaotong, saying, "Sister, do you like this cub? How about I take a picture of it for you?"
Zhong Xiaotong really liked it. Putting aside how tempting a ninth-tier magical beast cub was, the tiger cub's adorable appearance was just too cute.
"Okay, I'll take a picture of it."
Zhong Yan chuckled: "No rush, we'll talk about it later."
Zhong Ran glanced at him, sometimes wondering if he was the younger brother or the older brother, as he was often more mature than her, his older sister.
But to be honest, she only lived to be eighteen in her previous life, and she didn't have much experience outside.
This life has been quite eventful, but it still can't compare to Zhong Yan, who has devoured many remnant souls and possesses their memories.
"One hundred million top-grade spirit stones."
She made a direct offer, and it was a one-step offer.
Others are only asking for 80 million high-grade spirit stones, but she's asking for 100 million top-grade spirit stones. There's no comparison at all.
When the crowd below heard the price, they gasped in shock.
Which ignorant person is so outrageous as to ask for such a price?
The cubs of ninth-tier magical beasts are extremely rare and highly sought after.
However, it takes a lot of effort and resources to cultivate them, so everyone is very conservative in their asking prices.
But now that Zhong Ran has messed things up, she's furious.
It's not that they don't have top-grade spirit stones, but rather that they need to save their spirit stones for the later auction of the Dragon Ascension Pill and the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk.
The monster cubs are not useful now and need to be properly nurtured, which will require a lot of resources and take a very long time.
However, the Dragon Ascension Pill and the Ten-Thousand-Year Spirit Milk are truly beneficial to them now, and everyone knows perfectly well which is more important.
Who else quotes prices like she does?
Zhong Yan and Mu Jinning exchanged a glance, their eyes filled with helpless smiles and doting affection.
Wait a while, there's no need to spend so many spirit stones.
I estimate that it can be acquired for twenty to thirty million top-grade spirit stones.
However, as long as Zhong Ran is happy, that's all that matters.
No one below continued bidding, after all, one hundred million top-grade spirit stones was far beyond their budget.
So, Zhong Ran managed to photograph the ninth-tier flying tiger cub.
The auction continued, and the staff gently lifted the red cloth covering it, revealing a dark blue orchid that exuded a bloody smell.
"Everyone, this is the Ink Phoenix Blood Orchid, which was nurtured by the blood of the Ink Phoenix and has now grown into an eighth-grade spiritual herb."
"As everyone knows, mythical beasts like the phoenix and the dragon are now just legends on the Phoenix Continent."
"This Blood Orchid of the Black Phoenix was brought out from the Forest of Death by an adventurer."
"Although the adventurer came out of the Forest of Death alive, he was seriously injured and had no choice but to send this Black Phoenix Orchid to the auction house."
"He doesn't want spirit stones, he just wants to exchange them for a life-saving pill or a treasure."
This requirement left everyone looking at each other in bewilderment for a moment.
