Insufficient balance

  A stunned voice simultaneously sounded in the great hall, even the three major families on the VIP seats had a look of astonishment.

  Everyone's eyes fell on the corner.

  After a moment, the person in the corner slowly stood up, revealing a face full of scars. He had a cold smile on his face as he glanced at Long Aotian and then said in a low voice, "Young Master Long, have you forgotten that Yin Xue is also present?"

  As soon as the two words "Yin Xu" came out, the three elders and Mo Er Ye's eyes simultaneously revealed a few hints of ridicule. They originally thought that Long Ao Tian would definitely get this Zhu Que Zhong Jie's fighting technique, but unexpectedly, a Cheng Yao Jin appeared halfway through.

  Long Ao Tian's face changed color, and he finally grunted, sat down, and said in a low voice: "Yin Xu! You're ruthless!"

  It's clear he has already made up his mind to give up.

  "This man named Yin Xu smiled slightly and said: 'I still have to thank Young Master Long for not competing with me.'"

  He said, looking up at the auction stage with a glance, "Old man, now that no one is competing with me, doesn't this thing belong to me?"

  The old man on the auction stage didn't show any unusual expression due to his title, his eyes just scanned the auction floor, and after finding no one else bidding, he clapped his hands slowly and said: "The Zhuque Middle Stage Douqi Qingyun Hand is yours, Vice Captain Yin Xu. Please wait for the end of the auction to come and collect it."

  At this time, Li Yi rubbed his brow and finally remembered what Yin Xu was.

  This dark warrior appears to be a Seventh Crystal Warrior, belonging to a mercenary organization called the Blood Wolf Mercenaries. The Blood Wolf Mercenaries can be said to be one of the major forces in Wancheng City, aside from the three major families.

  Legend has it that the leader of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps is this Yin Xu's father, who is already a powerful fighter at the peak of Dou Shi. Moreover, there are several Dou Shi in the mercenary corps, which greatly increases the strength of the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps. Furthermore, every single person in the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps is someone who has lived on the edge of life and death, and once they take action, they will not stop until one side dies. Therefore, in the vicinity of Wancheng City, there are also very few people who would deliberately provoke such a group of people.

  However, the Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps people are quite law-abiding, knowing that they can't intervene in Wanchao City, so their headquarters is located in a small town on the border of Wanchao City.

  However, Li Yi did take an interest in the Blood Wolf Mercenary Group, not because of anything else, but because it was said that the group leader had a six-grade weapon in his hand, and after all these years, he didn't know how much bloody aura had been stained on it.

  On the VIP seat, the storm was still brewing. On the auction stage, the Qingyun scroll had already been taken down. This time, two attendants carried a huge wooden box and placed it on the auction stage.

  "Hehe, next is the final item of this auction. Although it can't compare to that scroll of martial skills from earlier, I believe many people will be very interested in it."

  As he spoke, the old man patted the wooden box with his hand, and it suddenly cracked open. A thick and intense bloody aura instantly spread out, causing Li Yi's spirit to shake. He immediately knew that this time, he had absolutely not come in vain.

  Even the voice of the snake尊者 had a few points of incredulity in Li Yi's mind: "This aura is......"

  Among the scattered wood shavings, a quaintly-shaped curved knife appeared in everyone's line of sight. The old man's eyes revealed a few sparks of heat, and he slowly picked up the knife, saying in a low voice: "Wolf Tooth Blade, fifth-grade weapon!"

  "Whoosh——"

  Compared with when Douji first appeared, the scene was even more boiling.

  The reason is simple, because this high-quality weapon is not only hard to find, but also the skills and techniques of combat are different. Both require a long time of practice to increase one's strength, but if a good weapon falls into the hands of a strong person, it can be said that his strength will surge instantly.

  So, it's hard to come by good martial arts skills and techniques, and a good weapon doesn't necessarily appear easily.

  Moreover, the most crucial point is that this time's Wolf Tooth Blade is only a fifth-grade weapon. Although its grade is quite high, some large families may not necessarily be interested in it. Therefore, even ordinary families or individuals have a chance to get their hands on it.

  Although it is unknown why the auction house treated these five pieces of weapons as the finale, at least for many people, this wolf-tooth blade will not be as unattainable as the Qingyun Sword just now.

  So, this scene became even more intense.

  However, the old man seemed to see through everyone's thoughts as usual. He smiled slightly on stage and continued: "I think many people can't figure out why this fifth-grade weapon is being auctioned off as the finale? This isn't because there's anything special about this Wolf Tooth Blade. The only reason it deserves such treatment is that...this blade was once wielded by the young Balin, the Knife Emperor! Back then, Balin held this very Wolf Tooth Blade to challenge the strong from all directions and finally broke through to become the first Fighting Emperor of our Tianfeng Empire!"

  As soon as this was said, the whole room fell silent!

  Dà Huáng Bā Lín, the legendary Dou Huang powerhouse, is someone that everyone present needs to look up to!

  Such a figure, although it is unknown why he would appear in this setting when he was young, indeed has the value of being the final act.

  "Heh heh, in order to show respect for the Knife Emperor, we can't treat this blade as an ordinary fifth-grade weapon. So, how about a base price of 8,000 gold coins?" The old man threw out a ruthless price with a faint smile!

  It's worth noting that high-grade weapons are expensive, but a fifth-grade weapon usually only has a value of around 10,000 gold coins, and that's the price for a brand new one.

  Although it can be said that weapons are not easily worn out, obviously, new ones are worth more than old ones.

  Maybe it's just that the name of the Knife King is too big, this price hasn't stopped the enthusiasm in the first floor hall.

  "Eight thousand five hundred gold coins!" As soon as the old man's words fell, someone shouted loudly.

  "Get out! You dare to raise the price with just 500 gold coins? 9,000 gold coins!"

  The bidding voices rose and fell, but it was clear that no matter how high the price was shouted in the hall, it would not go much higher. The price was quickly bid up to 10,000 gold coins.

  The people at the VIP table didn't show much interest in the wolf-toothed sword, each of them just gazing at it lightly.

  It was Li Yi who felt slightly disappointed with the two words "five products". He said in a low voice, "Old ghost, what do you think of this weapon..."

  The voice of the Snake Respecter flew up quickly: "The blood evil energy on this weapon is extremely thick, I'm afraid that Emperor or whatever he was called back then used this weapon to kill countless people. This kind of object is exactly what you need to cultivate the Heavenly Devil Nine Transformations. Even if it's a robbery, you must get this thing for me today."

  Having known Snake Zun for so long, Li Yi was the first to hear the urgency in his voice, and with the bloody aura on the wolf's fangs, it really shocked him. Such a great tonic, how could he let it go?

  At this moment, Li Yi raised his head and looked at the wolf-toothed sword on the stage. After a while, he said in a clear voice: "20,000 gold coins!"

  The bidding dropped, and the hall quieted down. After all, it had been fried for half a day downstairs, and the price hadn't broken 15,000. Li Yi was good, and with one breath, he let the price rise again.

  Adding Li Yi's cautious appearance, it seemed that he was a bit timid and fearful. In the hall, some people even speculated whether he might be someone pretending to be an auctioneer.

  Facing the sudden appearance of this black-clad man, several people on the VIP seats were slightly surprised, but for the three major families, the attraction of this fifth-grade weapon was not great, let alone they had no interest in offending a mysterious and strange-looking person for something that could be had or not.

  It was Yin Xu who heard Li Yi's bid, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes. After hesitating for a moment, he said calmly: "Two hundred and fifty thousand gold coins!"

  As soon as the price came out, the hall was even more shocked. Even the old man on stage showed a hint of abnormality in his eyes. To know that 25,000 gold coins were already the price of a sixth-grade weapon.

  Li Yi took a deep breath and didn't even bother to glance at Yin Xu, continuing: "50,000 gold coins!"

  This is already the highest price he can afford.

  This price made the people of the three major families at the VIP table twitch their mouths, having seen bankruptcies before, but never one as bad as this. Five hundred thousand gold coins could already buy a seventh-grade weapon.

  When Yin Xuan heard Li Yi's offer, the strange meaning in his eyes became even more pronounced. Perhaps it was due to the many years of living on the edge that made Yin Xuan's senses extremely sharp. He faintly felt that there might be some benefit to this Wolf Tooth Blade, and even if not, the knife's past pairing with the Knife Emperor seemed to match his own identity.

  He glanced at Li Yi again before continuing: "Sixty thousand gold coins!"

  Li Yimeng stood up, glanced faintly in the direction of Yin Xu, and smiled lightly after a moment, saying: "That Wolf Tooth Sword is yours."

  After saying that, he didn't even turn his head and left.

  It was the people of the three major families who saw Li Yi's appearance, and each of them had a strange feeling in their hearts. How could such a person be so old and experienced? Although Li Yi just turned around and left, everyone already knew that Li Yi's heart must be filled with anger at this moment.

  The Blood Wolf Mercenary Corps offended a mysterious guy for the sake of a worthless weapon, it seems like it's going to be quite interesting...

  They are different from those people on the first floor. Everyone knows that the person who can be invited to this VIP seat is not a simple character...
