Following that, Han Gang Li began to bid as well.

"20,000 taels of divine rocks!"

Han Li Gang's voice was icy. Clearly, he was trying to intimidate Duan Qiao Yu who was in room nine.

At the same time, in room nine, Duan Qiao Yu smiled upon hearing Han Li Gang's words. Clearly, she did not feel threatened by him at all.

"How dare this old man threaten me?!" Duan Qiao Yu muttered to herself before she called out loudly, "100,000 taels of divine rocks!"

100,000 taels of divine rocks were the previous starting bid that the Zhou clan had set for the lord-grade cultivation method, the Six Gods Profound Shadow Technique.

"What should we do now, my lord?"

Han Li Gang's expression turned unsightly when he saw that the other party was not only unafraid of his threats, but she had also raised the price to 100,000 taels of divine rocks.

Subsequently, he hurriedly contacted the people from the other four lord-rank forces who were present today.

"We've agreed to obtain the cultivation method without having to pay for it. However, a little girl suddenly appeared and bid for it. Should we let her have the cultivation method for now and rob it from her later?"

Murong Sui Feng, the Vice Sect Leader of the Hidden Fog Sect and the dean of the Hidden Fog Academy, replied, "Do you think she's unaware that we're pulling the strings from behind the scene after seeing no bid for the Six Gods Profound Shadow Technique? Since she dares to bid for it, it means she's not afraid of us."

Han Li Gang asked with a frown on his face, "Then, are you saying that we should bid against her to obtain the cultivation method?"

Another reply came soon after. "I think Dean Murong has a point. Since the little girl dares to bid for the item, it means she's not afraid of having to deal with us…"

"Alright, let's bid for it. The five of us will split the cost evenly later. Similar to our previous agreement, we'll all have a turn with the cultivation method."

The other three agreed with Murong Sui Feng. Clearly, they shared the same thought with him.

Han Li Gang asked, "What if she's calling our bluff?"

"After the auction, we can investigate her," someone replied.

With this, Han Li Gang no longer protested. Indeed, they should not act rashly. They should at least investigate her background first. If she was truly from a prominent force, then they would have no choice but to let this matter go. However, if she was found to be from an ordinary force, it was still not too late to deal with her. If she were found to be an ordinary cultivator, let alone him, even the 10,000 Devils Sect would not let her get away with this.

At this moment, another message arrived.

"Old Han, you should take the lead and bid against her first. The most important thing now is to obtain the lord-grade cultivation method."

The other three members of the lord-rank forces chimed in in agreement as well. Although Murong Sui Feng did not speak, he did not disapprove either. This meant that he had acquiesced to their words.

After listening to the message, Han Li Gang said through gritted teeth, "Alright, I'll bid against her first." Then, he called out icily, "110,000 taels of divine rocks!"

Silence descended again.

Everyone had been shocked earlier when they heard the person in room nine offering 100,000 taels of divine rocks for the lord-grade cultivation method.

In room six.

"Room nine again?"

Zhong Si, the fourth Leader of the Zhong clan, frowned slightly. "Who's in room nine? How dare she bid for the lord-grade cultivation method. Does she have a death wish?"

The old man standing behind Zhong Si smiled wryly before he said, "Fourth Leader, there's a possibility she's only calling our bluff."

Zhong Si nodded. "Let's wait and see. Perhaps, she was just hired by the Zhou clan to bring up the price of the lord-grade cultivation method.

"Is the Zhou clan really so bold? If what you said is true, isn't the Zhou clan afraid of the retribution from the other lord-rank forces?"

"She must have been prepared to lose her life. She definitely won't confess or mention the Zhou clan… Moreover, the Zhou clan usually trusted those who would put their lives on the line for the sake of the clan. These people's family members would be cared for and provided for if something were to happen to them. Who knows? The Zhou Clan might have already prepared for her funeral before she even began her mission."

Since this was just his speculation, Zhong Si decided to wait and see for now.

"One million taels of divine rocks!" The slightly childish voice rang in the air again.

The people who had just become chatty again fell silent immediately as soon as they heard these words.

In room nine.

Duan Ling Tian was also taken aback by Duan Qiao Yu's bid. Even he only possessed 180,000 divine rocks with him now. It was not even 20% of the number of divine rocks that the girl had offered. He did not expect her to possess so many divine rocks. However, he thought it was a good sign. It was likely that Duan Qiao Yun and the beautiful woman next to her were stronger than a King of Gods. Moreover, if she had high status as he had suspected, it was very normal for her to have a million taels of divine rocks.

Meanwhile, Zhou Yun, an elder of the Zhou clan, who was standing on the stage was also dumbfounded at this moment. In fact, she had also thought that the Zhou clan must have forgotten to remind her that they had hired someone to raise the price of the lord-grade cultivation method.

However, this idea quickly vanished when she heard Duan Qiao Yu bidding with a million taels of divine docks. If Duan Qiao Yu was truly hired by the Zhou clan, she would not have dared to bid with so many divine rocks. There were hardly any people in Skywind City who had this many divine rocks.

Although the Zhou clan could secretly sell the cultivation method outside. It came with a lot of risks. There were many lord-rank forces away from Skywind City who were much stronger than the ones in the city. The lord-rank forces in and near the city were usually just ordinary lord-rank forces, far inferior to the other stronger lord-rank forces.

The crowd gasped.

"A million taels of divine rocks?!"

Room 6.

Zhong Si, the Fourth Leader of the Zhou clan, suddenly rose to his feet. At the same time, a hint of fear could be seen in his eyes. Similar to others, when Duan Qiao Yu bid with a million taels of divine rocks, he knew for sure she was not hired by the Zhou clan.

"It seems like I won't be able to seek revenge from that brat." Zhong Si felt really uncomfortable in his heart when he recalled the person who had taken the three divine pills from him.

Based on what he had learned, the girl who had bid for the lord-grade cultivation method was holding onto the young man. The duo clearly had a good relationship. For this reason, he thought it would not be wise to seek revenge from the young man now.

When the crowd regained their senses, they looked in the direction of room nine. All of them were curious about the person in there. They wondered if she was from a lord-rank force as well.

In the Bloody Saber Alliance's room.

The scarred middle-aged man, the leader of the Bloody Saber Alliance, which was a king-rank bandit group, scoffed loudly before he said with a smile, "The lord-rank forces overestimate themselves, thinking they have everything under control. They deserve this for trying to play dirty."

In fact, it was not just the Bloody Saber Alliance, many of the other king-rank bandit groups were also delighted. They thought the lord-rank forces deserved this for threatening them.

"Who's in room nine? The first item was bought by someone in room nine as well. At that time, we had wondered if Fourth Leader Zhong Si would seek revenge from him…"

"We've underestimated those in room nine. Someone who's bold enough to bid against the lord-rank forces and also capable of bringing out a million taels of divine rocks is certainly not afraid of Fourth Leader Zhong Si."

"That's right. If anything, Fourth Leader Zhong Si is probably cowering in fear now!"

"I guess room nine will compete with the lord-rank forces for the lord-grade cultivation method now…"

Those who had assumed the auction for the Six Gods Profound Shadow Technique, which had a low starting bid earlier, would end without any fanfare. However, now, they grew excited again. It seemed like they would have a show to watch.

Room one and room five were silent.

After a long time, Han Li Gang, an elder from the 10,000 Devils Sect, asked the other four from the lord-rank forces, "What should I do now? Give up or continue bidding?"

"Continue bidding!" Murong Sui Feng said before the others could reply, "We should try to obtain the cultivation method now. We'll send someone to investigate the matter after the auction ends."

The others agreed with Murong Sui Feng.

"We'll deal with the other party later!"

With that, Han Li Gang called out, "1,100,000 taels of divine rocks!"

Initially, Han Li Gang had wanted to bid with 1,010,000 taels of divine rocks, but before he could do so, Murong Sui Feng had sent him a message telling him not to be stingy since he represented all of them.

The crowd grew excited. Some people's faces even turned red from the excitement.

"We're really lucky to be able to witness this auction!"

All of them waited in anticipation for the next move. They were waiting for the person in room nine to further raise the price.

However…

A playful laughter rang from room nine before a childish voice said, "Old man, wouldn't it be better if you honestly bid for it in the beginning? You could've saved a million divine rocks. By the way, you should know now that I'm only bidding for fun, right? After all, how could I be interested in a mere lord-grade cultivation method? Alright, I'll stop playing with you now. You can have this lord-grade cultivation method.."
