Shock! The Spell Is In English! Chapter 475
Advertisement
The etiquette lady went up to the stage and told everyone that because this auction item was really special. There was no starting price nor was there any following price. Therefore, it was completely for everyone to do as they pleased.
It was comfortable for everyone to do as they pleased, allowing everyone to do as they pleased in the auction. However, everyone's gazes were fixed on the positions of the Black Tiger clan and the White Crane clan.
Everyone knew that it was impossible for a third clan to come out and dare to meddle in the affairs of these two clans, not to mention the danger faced by the Black Tiger clan and the White Crane clan, even this Black Stone Necklace would be of no use to the others after they took it back. With the addition of the Black Tiger clan and the White Crane clan... No matter which clan brought it out, everyone in Guangshi City would be afraid of the drama, so no one dared to disturb the auction of the two clans.
The two clan leaders sat together, then sat on the chairs and drank the tea in their hands. They looked at each other, waiting for the other's price, and then followed up. Finally, after waiting for about two minutes... The clan leader of the White Crane clan couldn't hold on any longer, so he raised his own price.
The clan leader of the White Crane clan didn't say anything. He took out a sign and wrote one million gold coins on it.
Lugh saw it and knew that it meant one million gold coins. Usually, only a few people would auction in this way. Usually, people would directly shout and show their own sign to the etiquette lady to indicate that they were auctioning it themselves, because that would save a lot of time. If there were many people auctioning it, they would write a tag and the other person would write a tag.
An auction item that could have been auctioned off in ten minutes would probably be 3... 4 hours. So, this form of auction could only be carried out when very few people participated.

The patriarch of the Black Tiger clan heard this and thought for a while.
Then, everyone's gaze turned to the patriarch of the Black Tiger clan. They saw him pick up the pen in his hand and write on it 1.5 million gold coins.
Everyone sucked in a breath of cold air. The patriarch of the Black Tiger clan seemed to be too rich. After all, he spent 1.5 million to buy a meaningless Black Stone Necklace, even though this necklace could allow him to become a Duke's legitimate family... 1.5 million gold coins were too much.
After the patriarch of the Black Tiger Clan wrote down his own price, he turned around and smugly looked at the White Crane clan. After the White Crane clan saw the price of the Black Tiger clan, they remained expressionless. After thinking for a while, they picked up a board again. Then, they used a pen to write a price of 2 million gold coins on it.
In just a few short minutes, the Black Stone Necklace had reached the price of 2,000,000 gold coins. This price was truly unexpected. The etiquette lady did not expect that it would increase so quickly. The price usually had an increase of 10,000 to 10,000 gold coins in her understanding of the auction.
After all, no one said that it was a 500,000 to 500,000 parent-child competition. However, the strength of the Black Tiger clan and the White Crane clan was really too strong. In their opinion, 10,000 to 10,000 was really beneath their dignity, so they directly skipped it. They raised the price with the previous rights, and both sides thought that it was the bottom line price.
Lugh saw that the two clans were fighting each other in such a way that it was interesting. It would definitely be 500,000. Although it was not much to Lugh, that was because he had the help of the system. If he wanted to make money... The clearing hotline could let Lugh control most of the properties in the entire raw stone continent.

Lugh only said that he had enough, so he was not that greedy. However, the money of the two families was earned by themselves. If they spent it... it was completely gone. Moreover, the Black Stone Necklace had a symbolic meaning. There was no meaning to it anymore. It had no practical value. He could not help people, he could not help source beast master training could not help source either. Beast masters could improve their strength.
After thinking for a few minutes, the White Crane clan leader took out another wooden board and wrote a number on it. It was 2.5 million gold coins. When everyone saw it, they sucked in a breath of cold air. 2.5 million gold coins... This was because many of the clans did not use the money of their businesses. Even though they were under the tutelage of many clans, those who had so much money were all real estate. Many of them could not be auctioned, many families' liquid assets could only be used to spend around 100,000, 200,000, or 300,000.
Although these assets in Guangshi City could often accumulate between 1 million and 2 million, that was after several decades of accumulation. Many people did not dare to spend it recklessly. If they were to spend 2.5 million to buy a meaningless Black Stone Necklace, they would definitely be found out by the family members and beaten up. It would be a little bit of abolishing the position of the family head. After all, the Black Stone Necklace was really useless. It only had a symbolic meaning.
After the White Crane clan leader finished drawing his sword, the Black Tiger clan leader sat in his seat and thought for a while. Then, he picked up the water back beside him and took a sip of tea.
Then, he thought for a while. He finally wrote down the price of 3 million gold coins in his mind. When 3 million gold coins were written down by the Black Tiger clan leader, the etiquette lady couldn't remain calm anymore, including the seller of the Black Stone Necklace.
At this moment, he also stood up in excitement. 3 million gold coins were enough for a person to start a family. If he used it to buy things to increase the strength of his source beast... It could allow a person to increase the cost from level 1 to level 30.
When the White Crane clan saw the Black Tiger clan raise the price to 3 million gold coins, they were also very surprised. After all, the price of the Black Stone Necklace was indeed too fast in his mind.
However, he still desired the Black Stone Necklace. Even if he bought the name of an authentic clan, it would still be worth it. However, if he increased the price unnecessarily, it would be completely useless.
In the end, it would still be the auction house and the seller who would benefit. Right now, it was the matter between the White Crane clan and the Black Tiger clan. If the two clans continued to increase the price like this, then only the two clans would be injured.
Although the forces in the Green Kingdom were very powerful, the money was not plucked from the air. It was impossible to continue to raise the price like this.
The Black Tiger clan leader and the White Crane clan leader did not want to continue raising the price, but both sides were unwilling to give the Black Stone Necklace to the other party. In the end, the two clan leaders decided that since they did not want to continue in terms of financial resources, then they would use force.
The two group leaders said that each side would send a young disciple and let them fight for about ten minutes in the auction. As long as the other party lost, then the other party would not have the right to continue the auction.
