bargaining war



Shun Long smiled at the initial price the 'Hare Pavilion' had set for his wine.


''Master, I believe they are deliberately trying to lower the price of wine so that they can get it cheaper.''


With a smile still on his face, Shun Long replied


''Maybe if I had auctioned both barrels, then this could work. But now...? There is no chance of this cheap trick causing any waves today. There is only one, and whoever wants it will get it. If the 'Treasure Pavilion' thinks that this can harm today then they are truly a bunch of fools.''


When the people in the outer seats heard that wine would be sold for spirit stones, they were confused as they expected everything in the sect auction to be purchased with sect points.


However, the Elders in the private rooms had been notified in advance, so they all brought along a large amount of spirit stones, as the bidding began.


''1100 spirit stones!''


''1100? Hahaha, Lu Niu are you dreaming? 1500 spirit stones''


''1800''


''2000''


Wine prices rose at an alarming rate, but Shun Long still casually sipped his wine while enjoying the show. Little Black was almost always his wine now, and seeing the relaxed Shun Long he asked


''Master, are you sure you want to challenge that Fu Peizhi in 3 days from now? Why not just fight it once you become a little stronger? We still have 3 months until this 'Vermilion realm' is opened, so even if you decide to fight it before the end of 3 months, there is still time.''


Yet Shun Long thought to little Black's question as he said


''I also prefer to go into seclusion after today's auction, but .... it can cause problems in the future.''


Shun Long saw that little Black did not understand what he meant, so he continued his explanation


''The real problem lies in the rules of the arena. Only those ranked 101-200 were allowed to challenge the top 100 people in the arena.


If I were to seclude myself while I was still ranked 93rd, there is no doubt that I would accept many challenges and I would have to accept many or lose my ranking.''


The Black nodded his head as he said


'' But the worst that could happen was a master falling in the top 100 rankings, right? Master will definitely be able to reclaim a spot in the top 100 after coming out of seclusion.''


Shun Long smiled after hearing little Black's words and said


''The rules of the arena stated that one could refuse a challenge if he had fought for the day. Even if I am strong enough to claim a spot in the top 100, if people abuse this rule near the last days of selection and I end up not successfully challenging someone in the top 100, he said, then I will still be the one. who loses.''


Little Black seemed to have just realized that such a 'gap' existed in the rules of the arena. However, this did not answer all of his questions so he continued


''But still, how would it help if master challenged Fu Peizhi?''


Realization finally appeared on the black dragon's face as he asked


''So want the master to want to avoid most of the challenges while making your history record!''


Shun Long smiled as he nodded his head and said


''That, and to teach Fu Peizhi a lesson. Since he dared to challenge me just to teach me a lesson, it was about time I dropped him off his high horse.''


While Shun Long and the little Black were being, the auction hall had changed the bidding battlefield because the price of Shun Long's wine had reached 24,000 spirit stones.


''24.500''


Fu Lingtian's voice rang out from private room number 4 as he looked at Meng Shao in private room 6.


''25,000! Old Fu, stop without an object about this wine. You have been stuck in the 9th rank of the 400-year-old class, no matter what magical heaven that wine is, it will not help you break into the Spirit realm!''


''26,000! Fucking Meng, talk to me again after you reach the top of Heaven class! This wine is mine!''


''27.000''


The price of wine had reached such a huge amount, that only the old ancestors of the Fu and Meng families would still dare to compete with each other to obtain it.


The higher echelons of the 'Treasure Pavilion' who witnessed the bidding war, felt pain in their hearts as they watched the price of wine rise nonstop. Even if they reduced the 5% that their pavilion had taken in as payment, the price was still much higher than the original estimate.


''30,000! Meng Shao, are you still going to fight with me because of this?''


Gritting his teeth, Meng Shao called out


''31.000! Don't be crazy old fart! This was almost the price of 2 rank 4 medicinal herbs! Even you must feel pain after losing so many spirit stones at once!''


''32.000!'' Fu Lingtian called out with determination full of determination in his eyes. Fatty Fu's knees were trembling now as he looked at his grandfather.


Meng Shao was furious after hearing Fu Lingtian's voice again. 32,000 spirit stones was a huge sum even for the old patriarch of the Meng family.


'' You crazy old fart! Goody! Since one wine grape has appeared, I do not believe that another will not appear again in the future!''


With that, Meng Shao finally decided to stop bidding, letting Fu Lingtian finally breathe a sigh of relief.


Inside his private room, Shun Long's eyes shone as he looked at the over 60,000 spirit stones that were about to enter his pocket.


Almost 10 minutes passed, when Ma Tengfei along with Yin Xing then arrived at the private room.
