Chapter 722: Successful Bid, Vice Dean’s Probe

With the price reaching three hundred million, Yu Shan chose to give up. He had only prepared three hundred million, and the opposing bid had hit his absolute limit.

The spectators were even more perplexed. How could anyone bid like this?

It completely defied common sense. Was the auction house trying to rig the bidding?

The lead auctioneer was equally puzzled. Normally, any bid exceeding one hundred million required capital verification, but to keep the momentum going, they had temporarily skipped that step-never expecting someone to drive the price up so drastically within just a couple of bids.

“Everyone, please wait a moment.”

The auctioneer feared someone might be causing trouble. Judging by the private room, the bidder was not one of those few major forces. He would have to verify the funds.

While he doubted anyone would dare cause trouble at an auction house in Qiankun City, what if they ran into a fool? If the deal fell through at the last second because the buyer lacked the funds, it would become a laughingstock for years to come.

Hearing the auctioneer ask everyone to wait, a flicker of hope arose in Yu Shan’s heart. This had to be capital verification. If the other party could not produce three hundred million, securing the item for two hundred and ten million himself would not be a bad deal.

Normally, gradual bidding would bypass verification, but jumping straight from one bid to two hundred million, and then straight to three hundred million, naturally demanded verification.

The rest of the spectators quickly guessed what was happening.

Qin Xiao, however, remained unconcerned. After all, three hundred million Immortal Stones was a sum anyone would want verified.
