The person bidding in the Leng Clan was none other than the Patriarch of the Leng Clan, Leng Yu Jie.
He, himself, was a Six-leaf Spirit Emperor, and one of his spiritual plants had reached the peak of One-leaf Spirit Emperor. If he could win this Nourishing Soil, then the spiritual plant would be able to advance to Two-leaf Spirit Emperor.
The Nourishing Soil resource provided by the clan were limited after all, and one piece of emperor-level Nourishing Soil every year was simply not enough.
Of course, the Spirit Emperors in the other private rooms also followed suit.
After several rounds, Leng Yu Jie bid the high price of ‘one hundred and thirty thousand’ spiritual jade.
The price of the emperor-level Nourishing Soil was already very high—although it was practically not available outside, but all major clans had channels to obtain some, so it wasn’t very precious.
The white-haired elderly man saw that no one was bidding anymore, and said with a smile: “Is there anyone else who will offer a higher price? I will count to three, if no one bids again, this emperor-level Nourishing Soil will be sold at one hundred and thirty thousand.
“One.
“Two.”
Just as the white-haired elderly man was about to count to three, a lazy voice sounded, “One hundred and fifty thousand.”
Everyone was stunned and looked towards the private room on the second floor. They soon realised that it was the private room of the Imperial Academy and the Holy Academy, and the lazy and faint voice was Yu Qing Qian’s.
For those who participated in the auction right now, even if they didn’t see the conflict between the Leng Clan and Yu Qing Qian outside the auction venue, the news had already spread vividly.
Everyone had a desire to watch a good show, guessing that Yu Qing Qian was deliberately going against the Leng Clan!
Leng Yu Jie was angered when he heard Yu Qing Qian’s voice. As expected, this bastard was born to go against the Leng Clan.
Once, his elite team was slaughtered by Yu Jing, and now this bastard came out to sing a different tune, damned it.
“One hundred a sixty thousand.” Leng Yu Jie said coldly.
Yu Qing Qian was still indolent, “One hundred and eighty thousand.”
“One hundred and ninety thousand.” Leng Yu Jie gritted his teeth.
“Two hundred thousand.” Yu Qing Qian seemed to remain indifferent.
Leng Yu Jie was about to continue when he was stopped by a superior of the Leng Clan.
“Patriarch, Yu Qing Qian must be deliberately trying to provoke you. The price of the Nourishing Soil now exceeds its value, don’t be fooled!”
Leng Yu Jie narrowed his eyes dangerously, then calmed down a lot, no longer bidding.
So Yu Qing Qian spent two hundred thousand spiritual jades to win this piece of emperor-level Nourishing Soil.
Many people present felt that Yu Qing Qian was too impulsive, and it wasn’t worth spending an extra seventy thousand spiritual jades just to win some face.
But Yu Qing Qian felt it was very worthwhile. Spiritual jades were all earned, but if she missed this Nourishing Soil, she didn’t know when she’d get a new one. Once her Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus absorbed it and broke through to Spirit Emperor, it would also support the Demon Emperor Herb.
If she could find a way to move the demonic plants to the spiritual plant space, or move the Nine-Coloured Magic Lotus and the Demon Emperor Herb to the small pagoda, then all the demonic plants she had contracted would benefit from this piece of emperor-level Nourishing Soil—this was only a business that earned and not lost.
Yu Qing Qian came from the apocalypse, so she didn’t have a good understanding of the currency exchange. She was very open-minded too—if she spent, then she’d just continue to earn money.
In the nearly one year in the Holy Academy, Yu Qing Qian refined a lot of potions and made a lot of plant inscription talismans to consign for sale in the commercial district, and also obtained a huge amount of spiritual jade.
If most of the spiritual jade hadn’t been tossed into the small pagoda space, her current spiritual jade wealth would definitely exceed most of the Spirit Emperors present.
Of course, she still had other things even if she didn’t have spiritual jade. How much spiritual jade she lost at the auction this time, she’d just find it back from the Leng Clan when they went to the sea realm.
