"Distinguished guests, please come this way. Take the floating elevator to the sixty-sixth floor, where a special attendant will greet you." A golden-haired beauty stood beside the floating elevator, speaking with a smile.
The Blackwing Auction House's floating elevator was large enough to hold over fifty people. It was made of Seven Luminaries Crystal with excellent magical conductivity, engraved with many magical runes, allowing it to move freely in midair. However, its cost was extremely high; even selling the entire Red Leaf Town wouldn't be enough to afford it.
In the entire Star Moon Kingdom, only the auction house and royal palace in Star Moon City had floating elevators, and they were much smaller than Blackwing Auction House's. This showed how financially powerful Blackwing Auction House was.
Blackwing Auction House was very large, divided into three areas: the Ordinary Area, VIP Area, and Luxury Area.
The ordinary area auction venue was from the 4th to the 36th floor. As long as you purchased a Blackwing Emblem, you could participate in the auction. There were fewer rare and expensive items available there.
The VIP area was from the 50th to the 100th floor. Only people with a certain status could participate. The items auctioned were mainly rare and expensive, occasionally treasures.
The luxury area was from the 150th to the 180th floor. Those who could participate were either extremely powerful or overlords of a region, such as the top figures of the Star Moon Kingdom.
In his previous life, Shi Feng advanced to Tier 3 Sword King, obtained some decent titles, and was fortunate enough to enter the VIP area. Only first-rate guild leaders and vice leaders, or top players who had advanced to Tier 5 classes, had the qualifications to enter the luxury area. As for what exactly was auctioned there, Shi Feng didn't know—it was a secret known only to the overlords of Divine Realm and peak experts.
Shi Feng arrived at the sixty-sixth floor auction venue.
The entire auction venue was about the size of a football field, and it was already packed with people. These were all NPCs of noble rank or higher. Competing with these NPCs for items was very difficult because their main function was to prevent players from easily obtaining auction items without competition.
Simply put, they were shills for the auction house. If a player's bid didn't meet the standard, the NPC would take it away. It was impossible to get a bargain.
After everyone was seated, the auction officially began. An old man with a white beard stepped onto the stage, announced the start, and brought out auction items one by one.
The first item was a Level 20 Mythril-grade plate armor chest piece, with a starting bid of 2 gold.
"The stats are decent, but the price is too expensive." Shi Feng opened the observation bar, checked the stats of the equipment, and then directly gave up.
Although the equipment was good, he couldn't use it right now.
If it were really a matter of spending 2 gold to buy it, Shi Feng might consider it, but the NPCs had been bidding against each other, and the price had already reached 7 gold.
If he sold it to a first-rate guild, it certainly wouldn't fetch 7 gold; 3 to 4 gold was the limit. After all, for ordinary players now, even copper coins were precious, let alone gold coins.
Then Mythril-grade equipment came out one after another, and even Gold-grade equipment appeared, but Shi Feng didn't take a liking to any of them.
The reason was simple: they were too expensive.
If he waited until ordinary players reached around level 20, the prices of these equipment would be much cheaper. But Divine Realm hadn't been open for long, and the average level was only 4. Where would there be so much money?
Half an hour later, the equipment auction phase ended, and the auction of other items began.
"Next up is a weapon forging design drawing. This design is a masterpiece of Master Corein. The starting bid is 3 gold coins."
This immediately caught Shi Feng's interest. He examined it.
Silver Dawn one-handed sword design drawing, Mythril-grade, Level 10.
Seeing Mythril-grade, Shi Feng knew his luck had arrived. And it was a Level 10 design drawing, absolutely what he needed most. Moreover, his Abyssal required 10 Mythril-grade weapons to upgrade. With the forging design, wouldn't Mythril-grade weapons be easy to come by?
However, besides Shi Feng, some blacksmiths also wanted to take a look and study it. After all, it was a Mythril-grade design drawing, very rare, so they started bidding one after another.
Soon, the bidding price reached 6 gold.
Shi Feng gritted his teeth and called out, "7 gold!"
"7 gold 30 silver."
