Chapter 604 Auction (9)



Even if this token quickly increased in price, once it hit the three million mark, the same thing happened as before where there were only a few people bidding for it.

This time, instead of two family heads, it was three different family heads.

None of them seemed willing to give up, but it was clear by the difficult looks on their faces that none of them could last much longer. For heads of small families like this, three million really was pushing their limits.

In the end, it didn\'t reach four million like the first auction, but it still reached 3.5 million after a family head decided to go all in and increase the price by three hundred thousand.

That move had been enough to scare off the other two family heads and win the bid in the end, but the family head that won looked like he had lost more than he had won…

All three of them looked like they wanted to cry.

Just like this, the other three tokens were quickly sold, creating plenty of joy and sadness.

Right after the last of the first batch of tokens were sold, there were more treasures that were brought out to be sold. These treasures didn\'t lose in value compared to the ones that had been brought out before the first batch of tokens, rather they were much more valuable.

It seemed like the Thunder Sect and the True Spirit Sect really were going all out with this auction.

The last item that was even sold before the next batch of tokens was actually a peak Embryo Soul Realm Artifact!

Something at this level would normally be enough to drive an auction in Harmony City by itself, but today it was playing nothing more than a supporting role.

Even if people felt that the auction was mismanaged because of the incidents that happened before, they still had to admire how rich the Thunder Sect and the True Spirit Sect were.

The second batch of tokens was sold at a much higher price compared to the first batch.

Everyone was desperate since they knew that once these were gone, there would only be ten tokens left.

But the main reason they were desperate was because they knew that the families under the twelve great factions hadn\'t acted yet.

Once this batch was over, those families would definitely join the fighting and once they did, with the financing the twelve great factions gave them, these normal families wouldn\'t be able to compete.

As for why those families under the twelve great factions didn\'t act, they were just following an unspoken rule. After all, they couldn\'t be too greedy and ruin their reputation.

They were powerful factions, but that didn\'t mean they were strong enough to dominate the entire world themselves. They still needed others, so they had to at least share some benefits to keep them in line.

For this batch of tokens, the highest priced token was the last one sold. The price had even broken five million and came close to reaching six million.

It would have reached it if one of the two family heads didn\'t finally crack under the pressure and couldn\'t help giving up.

For that family head, he had already gone past his limit a million low grade spirit stones ago and he was only going with pure adrenaline alone. However, adrenaline wasn\'t enough to carry him to the finish line since there was the voice of reason inside of him.

If he really went any further, he wouldn\'t have been able to pay for it even if he sold the possessions of every member of his family.

The only way he would be able to pay off the token would be to get a loan, but he was also certain that no one would give him that loan. After all, the moment that he won the token, not only would it be like putting a target on his back, it would be like putting a target on the back of every member of his family…

With a heavy heart from all these thoughts, he had no choice but to give it up.

When he did, it also caused a heavy feeling to fill the hearts of all the normal family heads and organization leaders that were here.

They knew that once this last token was sold, it was no longer their place to compete for the rest of the tokens.

From this moment forth, it would be a competition between the twelve great factions, or rather it would be a competition between the families and organizations that were under them.

With the small businesses that they had in hand, how could they compare to the finances of the twelve great factions that ruled over this upper realm?

At the very least, there were other items that were brought up to auction.

The Thunder Sect and True Spirit Sect really didn\'t hold back with this auction.

They had already been surprised when they saw the Peak Embryo Soul Realm Artifact, but that wasn\'t actually the end. In this round of items, there were actually two more Peak Embryo Soul Realm Artifacts and even a Low Child Soul Realm Artifact.

The Low Child Soul Realm Artifact was something that hadn\'t been sold in auction for over a thousand years now.

Whenever one of these were found, they would be immediately taken by one of the twelve great factions and given to their juniors. These lower tier families would never have the chance to even come in contact with these things.

But now there was one that had appeared in front of them, causing them to go wild.

In the end, the price for the Low Child Soul Realm Artifact didn\'t pale in comparison to the token. In fact, the price that the Low Child Soul Realm Artifact sold for was even higher than the highest priced token.

At the very end, there were four different organizations that were competing and none of them seemed to back down. That was until one of them pushed the price up by an entire million to reach eight million low grade spirit stones.

At that point, the other bidders all revealed bitter looks as they had no choice but to give up on this Low Child Soul Realm Artifact.

However, the person who won didn\'t have a bitter look on his face when he won this artifact like the ones who had won the tokens previously.

This artifact was something that could directly increase their power instead of giving them a chance to find better items in the ruins, ruins that would require them to risk their lives. Compared to that chance, having this artifact in hand was definitely the better choice for these smaller families.

However, the new price record set by this Low Child Soul Realm Artifact didn\'t last long since it was time for the bidding of the next batch of tokens.

Even the Hunters Organization had given each of the families under them ten million spirit stones each and they were one of the poorer organizations.

Most of their money went to services for their members since that was the kind of organization that they were.

It was hard to imagine what some of the richer factions like the Alchemy King Hall or the Tamers Guild would give their bidders.

As soon as the auction for the first token of this third batch started, the price immediately jumped up over five million and showed no signs of slowing down.

It was only when the price broke the ten million mark that there were less bids that came in.

The reason for that was that what most factions had done was the same as the Hunters Organization, splitting their funds between the organizations under them. When they did this, most of them gave them around ten million since they had thought that would be enough for most of them to get a token or two. Then when it was necessary, they could shift money between the different organizations so that they could compete.

Of course, the main reason was because they didn\'t fully trust the organizations under them, so they wouldn\'t give them more than ten million spirit stones.

Ten million spirit stones was an acceptable loss for them since they wouldn\'t have time to track down these organizations during the auction.

So when it reached the ten million mark, most of the organizations made bids much slower because they were waiting for instructions from their contacts within the twelve great factions.

At the same time, the contacts at the twelve great factions didn\'t immediately give the orders to make the bids because they wanted to scope out the other people from the twelve great factions.

Nevertheless, the price for the token still steadily climbed until it reached eleven million, twelve million, and finally thirteen million.

It was at this point that there were only three people fighting over it and none of them were from the Hunters Organization.

Lin Fan couldn\'t help shaking his head with a faint smile as he saw the frustrated look on Murong Yue\'s face.

At the end of the auction, the ten tokens were all sold for over ten million spirit stones, with the last one reaching twenty million spirit stones.

But for the Hunters Organization, they hadn\'t been able to get a single one of those tokens.

Lin Fan had been watching the whole time and he knew that it was for one single reason, which was that Murong Yue wasn\'t bold enough with her bids.
