If it wasn’t for the sincerity in the man’s words, Gu Xi probably would not have even looked at the armor.
“If this thing is really as extraordinary as the man said…” Gu Xi muttered to herself in a low voice. After a while, his eyes suddenly lit up.
If he could not figure out what this thing was, he could look with the System!
“System, let’s see what this thing is.”
[Roger! Analyzing!]
[Ding! Ancient Swimming Dragon Armor detected!]
[Total impurities 59,613!]
[Would the Host like to extract it?]
The System quickly gave Gu Xi’s answer.
Hearing this, Gu Xi was a little excited.
Although he did not know what the Ancient Swimming Dragon Armor was, it should not be too bad as it was a piece of ancient spirit tool.
Moreover, Gu Xi needed a spirit tool for self-defense. The Swimming Dragon Armor came at the right time. More importantly, no one wanted to fight for the Swimming Dragon Armor, so it was a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
“I bid 3,000!” without further thought, Gu Xi raised his hand and said loudly.
......
As soon as he said this, everyone’s eyes turned to look at him. They wanted to see which idiot would waste his points to buy this thing.
“That person… Looks so familiar!”
“Yo, that person is incredible! That person is the Medicine King Valley disciple who had a conflict with the Hehuan Sect some time ago.”
“I heard that Wang Zhan brought a few hundred people to kill him at that time. I didn’t expect that he would almost fail miserably in the end.”
It was obvious that someone present had seen Gu Xi somewhere before. Their conversation spread and soon, everyone looked at Gu Xi with curiosity.
Gu Xi did not pay any attention to the words of the others. His gaze was fixed on the man on the stage.
As long as he nodded, the transaction would be considered a success.
However, the man did not nod his head.
3,000 points was the starting price, but it was not the price he was willing to sell.
How could the item that cost the lives of his fellow disciples only be worth 3,000?
The man’s gaze swept back and forth across the faces below the stage. There was some anxiety on his face, but the crowd that had not heard from him for a long time made him feel disappointed and unwilling.
“I offer 5,000.” Right at this moment, a voice suddenly sounded.
Everyone was deeply shocked, and they all turned their heads to look in the direction of the voice.
Gu Xi was the same, but after looking for a second, his face sank.
“Wang Zhan…” He narrowed his eyes, and a trace of killing intent flashed through his eyes.
If it was not for Little Nine’s injuries the last time, Wang Zhan would have already died!
“I’ve been looking for you for half a month, and now you just appeared in front of me!”
Wang Zhan chuckled and walked in front of Gu Xi as if there was no one else around. He immediately turned his head to look at the man on the stage and continued, “Can you announce the sale now?”
Hearing this, the man clenched his fists and was a little hesitant.
He believed that the price could go up even further, but this would undoubtedly offend the Hehuan Sect. If that was the case, his end would not be any better than his fellow disciples who had died.
After some hesitation, the man was about to announce the result.
At this moment, Gu Xi raised his hand again. “6,000.”
“7,000.” Wang Zhan crossed his arms and smiled disdainfully.
Gu Xi frowned and raised his hand again. “8,000.”
He knew clearly that Wang Zhan did not want this Swimming Dragon Armor. The latter just wanted to use this opportunity to make him feel disgusted.
“10,000!” Wang Zhan casually raised a finger and looked at Gu Xi with a smile. “I wonder you will squander away a small fortune from your Medicine King Valley?”
Gu Xi’s expression did not change, but he did some calculations in his heart.
Right now, he only had around 12,000 points in his hand. At most, he could only bid once more and that would be the limit. On the other hand, the current Hehuan Sect had over 32,000 points, which was 20,000 more than him!
“12,000.” Gu Xi spoke again.
Since that was the case, he would offer all of them!
He would bet that Wang Zhan would not continue to follow!
Everyone present sucked in a breath of cold air. The man on the stage was already breathing rapidly, his face filled with disbelief.
He never would have thought that this unknown piece of armor could be sold for a sky-high price of 12,000 points!
“Congratulations, you have successfully obtained a piece of trash.” Following Gu Xi’s bid again, Wang Zhan’s face was filled with schadenfreude.
It was clear that he did not intend to continue following. If he were to be countered by Gu Xi in the end, he would have wasted more than 10,000 points to buy a piece of trash. At that time, not only would the ranks of the Hehuan Sect fall out of the top ten, if he were to lose the opportunity to fight for the championship of the competition because of this, he was afraid that he would not have a good ending when he returned to the sect afterward.
This was something that only a fool would do. Of course, it would be better to leave it to Gu Xi.
“This thing should belong to me now, right?” Gu Xi did not pay attention to Wang Zhan. Instead, his gaze fell on the man.
“Oh oh oh, right, it’s yours now.”
The man came back to his senses and quickly threw the armor in his hand to Gu Xi. Gu Xi also gave the man 12,000 points.
“Are you sure I bought a piece of trash?” Gu Xi looked at Wang Zhan in front of him and curled his lips.
His thumb rubbed against the rough surface of the armor. At the same time, Gu Xi ordered the System in his mind.
‘Extract!’
[Ding! Ancient Swimming Dragon Armor detected!]
[Extracting in progress!]
“Not only do I know that what you bought is trash, but I also know that your Medicine King Valley has no chance of becoming the champion of this competition. And you, Gu Xi, will definitely not leave this planar battlefield unscathed!”
Wang Zhan grinned, his voice cold.
He had coveted the two divine beasts in Gu Xi’s hands for a long time. It was not easy for him to meet Gu Xi again. Moreover, the Spirit-chasing Competition was nearing its end. He would definitely not let go of this opportunity.
“As for who is unable to leave this planar battlefield, it is still too early to say. However, I can prove one thing to you now. This… is not trash.”
[Extraction complete!]
Gu Xi and the System’s voice sounded almost at the same time.
At the same time, a strong spiritual energy fluctuation suddenly erupted between the two of them!
“What’s going on?!”
“Look… look at that armor!”
The crowd was a little flustered, and some of them quickly found the source of the problem.
One by one, their gazes focused on the black armor. At this moment, the surface of the armor was covered with fine cracks that looked like spider webs, and a shocking fluctuation was constantly being emitted from it.
Vaguely, there was a familiar feeling.
Gu Xi was somewhat puzzled, but he quickly understood that this was the might of a dragon!
Although it was slightly different from Little Jin’s might, he was certain of this!
