The auction continued.
Various types of green star weapons such as swords, knives, staffs, and spears, as well as rare materials, all made their appearances one after another, with a couple of Blue Cards occasionally interspersed.
Although the auction lasted a long time, the attendees remained quite active.
As for those Gold Level masters, they were evidently aiming for the last three finale items.
"Next, we have a rare third-level material from the northern Yanluo Country, the Phoenix Nirvana Stone," Chen Junyan announced with a smile.
Beside her, a beautiful female attendant brought over an orange-red stone the size of a fist.
This stone was incredibly bright, with a mass of bright yellow flames seemingly burning slowly within it.
"It's here, the Phoenix Nirvana Stone!"
Su Yuan and Geng Qiuyi both perked up simultaneously.
It was not just about their Blue Star Artifacts but also about whether Su Yuan could have an additional powerful card when subduing the Divine Fire in the future.
Chen Junyan began introducing the stone to the crowd: "Phoenix Nirvana Stone can only be produced in extremely high-temperature environments where Gold Level Master Quality phoenixes have resided.
Currently, there's very little of it within our Great Flame Country. This particular Phoenix Nirvana Stone was brought back by our Beidou Consortium from Yanluo Country.
Star devices crafted with the Phoenix Nirvana Stone not only have basic fire element enhancement but also possess strong fire resistance and fire absorption.
They are highly beneficial not just for internal fire element battles, but also for exploring fire element danger zones and secret realms!"
After Chen Junyan finished speaking, many people below seemed eager.
Inter-fire element battles among Star Card Masters were secondary, as the abilities of Star Card Masters varied widely, and encounters with Fire Star Card Masters were not very frequent.
However, Fire Star Card Masters indeed constantly explored fire-element-rich danger zones and secret realms, hunting fire element star beasts to obtain star cards and searching for fire element materials to enhance their strength.
In this context, the role of the Phoenix Nirvana Stone was very significant.
Seeing that the crowd's enthusiasm was successfully stirred, Chen Junyan's lips curved up: "Phoenix Nirvana Stone, starting price is 200 li, each increment must not be less than 20 li!"
The bidding commenced, but Geng Qiuyi and Su Yuan did not make any moves.
The current bidders mostly did not have a significant need for the Phoenix Nirvana Stone. They bid simply because the price was still low and within an acceptable range.
If they won the bid, they could potentially sell it for a better price in the future, making a substantial profit. If they didn't win, it was no big deal.
Geng Qiuyi said slowly, "Normally, a third-level fire element material should be priced around 600 li.
This Phoenix Nirvana Stone is quite large. If you were to forge a long knife, it would be enough for two people. I estimate its actual value to be between 900 and 1000 li."
Su Yuan nodded in agreement, "Pretty much. We'll see if anyone competes for it."
As time passed, the Phoenix Nirvana Stone steadily approached its appropriate price range.
"There are still a few people bidding, but it seems only two genuinely want this Phoenix Nirvana Stone..."
Su Yuan also hadn't been idle, constantly observing the bidders. Among them, two individuals' desires for the stone were particularly evident.
The first was a burly man in a black shirt, whose aura was not very restrained. He appeared to be at the Silver High Stage.
The other was a young man sitting in the front. This youth had clean, short red hair, a muscular build, and a sharp gaze, giving off an intimidating vibe.
Although he used breathing technique to restrain his aura, Su Yuan, relying on his super perception, still detected his strength.
"Bronze Middle Stage... seems to be a top student from the academy, possibly from Demon Academy."
However, Su Yuan only glanced at him briefly before his gaze landed on the black-haired boy sitting next to him, with a hint of surprise in his eyes.
This black-haired boy had fair skin and exceptionally handsome features. He should be with the red-haired youth.
The reason Su Yuan paid attention to him was not his appearance but his strength, which had already reached the Bronze High Stage!
"Demon Capital Academy currently does not have a freshman who has reached Bronze High Stage. If this person is a sophomore, that's expected. But if he is also a freshman... that would be impressive."
At this moment, the black-haired youth seemed to sense something and suddenly turned to look at Su Yuan.
Their eyes met. The black-haired youth's eyes faintly glowed as he smiled and nodded toward Su Yuan, then turned back.
"Ji Xuan, what is it?" Yang Xu, with a red buzz cut, had just finished bidding and noticed Ji Xuan gazing into the distance.
Ji Xuan shook his head with a smile, the faint glow in his eyes dissipating, but he squinted slightly in thought.
The one with silver eyes just now had definitely seen through his and Yang Xu's cultivation.
This meant the other party had likely reached the Breathing Second Level!
"Only Bronze Middle Stage, probably a freshman. Reaching Breathing Second Level this fast? Interesting. I wonder where this expert comes from..."
After a brief contemplation, Ji Xuan smiled nonchalantly.
No matter how skilled, how could a Bronze Middle Stage be his opponent?
For top talents, their realm, soul card, skills, star devices, and combat talent must have all been pushed to their current limits, leaving no apparent weaknesses.
