Liu Lao Jiu could only sneer at this. He couldn't tell others what Gu Ping had experienced three years ago, nor could he reveal what that young person had gone through during those years. At this moment, the seemingly boundless glory of Gu Ping was merely a facade hiding the truth.
There was an infinite terror, like being on a carriage destined for Yama Palace. I knew death would come sooner or later, but I had no idea when it would arrive, nor could I escape it.
For one person, this was filled with despair; for Gu Ping, it was the same. Some might choose to give up, but Gu Ping did not.
For Gu Ping, each day he managed to live was a victory, a form of rebellion against those who considered themselves the rulers of the world.
More importantly, he wanted to live. There was nothing wrong with that. As for why he wanted to live, even Coco and Gu Ping himself were unsure. Perhaps it was for ideals, or perhaps it was for those innocent lives lost due to the Light Canon—people he had never known. Regardless of the reason, everyone wanted to survive.
Everyone, as the Star Harvest came to an end, Jie Donglai announced the most anticipated part: the auction segment. He asked everyone to throw their collected rings into the sky, stating that the order of bidding would be determined by the number of rings thrown.
The Spirit Elder appeared above everyone's heads at some point, breaking the temporary calm of the venue.
Following the Spirit Elder's words, everyone tossed their rings into the air. Undoubtedly, the academy had emerged as the biggest winner in this Star Harvest with a total of seventy rings of varying sizes shimmering above Mok Ming Academy.
Only Gu Ping alone had obtained twenty-one rings; that small Spirit Rune originally placed back by Bei Qinping in Starlit Mist had not been brought out.
Jie Donglai's group, led by Da Qin Third Prince, had also performed well. Although Qunqin Ping had gifted Third Prince some rings, everyone from Great Qin Empire fought their own battles and ended up surpassing all other sects with forty rings collected.
Jie Donglai's Treasure Pavilion disciples ranked third with thirty rings. However, this set a historical low record for Treasure Pavilion since they had information from Sky's End Tower; finding Spirit Runes would always be slightly faster for them. Bu Luo's actions were akin to Lei Dongyue's opportunistic behavior that ultimately led Treasure Pavilion to lose face in Dong Cheng.
Following them were Jade Void Sect, Great Jin Yang Family, and Tianzhu Temple. Initially, Moon River Sect’s Ye Yi had obtained fifty rings, which meant that ten rings remained unclaimed.
The Star Harvest Conference had been held countless times, but this was the first instance where not all the rings had been found. Even the Spirit Elder squinted his eyes, looking at Gu Ping, clearly unsure if it was due to Gu Ping's influence.
It seemed everyone had showcased their Divine Abilities and gathered several Spirit Runes. Without further ado, they were eager to see what everyone had harvested this time.
With a wave of his cane, the Spirit Elder made all the Spirit Rings vanish into thin air, revealing the items within Liu Dong's ring.
The most inconspicuous items were undoubtedly the bottles of elixirs; several jade vials left people guessing about the contents. However, the most eye-catching was the Phoenix Feather Tail, shimmering in mid-air with its fiery red hue. Even among the dazzling auction items, it stood out remarkably.
The Spirit Elder counted Yi Dong's numbers and then announced ten bottles of Foundation Pills, each containing two pills—twenty pills in total. They were sourced from the Moon River Sect, Treasure Pavilion, and Jade Void Sect. The starting price for each bottle was two thousand spirit stones, with bidding increments of two hundred spirit stones. Who among the four would like to make an offer?
Seeing the elderly man's wrinkled smile, Gu Ping felt a surge of unease. Although there were twenty Foundation Pills, who would willingly let their disciples consume elixirs to break through? Such items could only serve as strategic reserves for emergencies; no sect would willingly jeopardize their future unless absolutely necessary.
The Moon River Sect wanted to acquire all of them. How about it? Could the three of you raise your bids?
Coincidentally, the Jade Void Sect also expressed interest. How about Xu Jia taking a step back?
As soon as Xu Jia finished speaking, Gan Yuan made his own proposal, leaving other sects somewhat surprised. After all, Foundation Pills had historically been easy to pass up at auctions; why was there suddenly such fierce competition this time? It truly puzzled Minghong.
In light of this, their sect offered two thousand two hundred spirit stones. How about both parties taking a step back?
In that case, the Jade Void Sect would add another two hundred.
With each bottle increasing by two hundred spirit stones, in just a minute, the price escalated to four thousand spirit stones per bottle. This initial tension transformed the entire auction into a battleground, leaving everyone curious about what kind of scene would unfold when the Phoenix Feather Tail appeared later on.
