Chapter 434.2: The Test of Survival begins!
The host on stage was startled. It was always the first time he'd ever heard of anyone deciding to lower their bid at auctions.
He Fan opened his mouth as if he wanted to say something, but was stopped by the Holy Emperor.
— Don't worry, I've already dealt with him twice. Even though he kills people without batting an eyelid, I've yet to hear of him cheating anyone even once.
The host on stage was confused and didn't know what he should have done. Su Xiao was sitting in the first row, in the eighth place. If it was the second row and beyond, he would have ignored such a bet, but this situation was a bit special...
Many of the auction participants were also amazed. This is the first time many of them have heard of someone lowering the bid, rather than raising it.
Of course, Su Xiao wasn't going to try to purchase an item for 70,000 coins when it was worth at least 120,000 Paradise coins.
He wouldn't try to make such a strange deal.
But since he opened his mouth, he had confidence that he would be able to buy these two guns, otherwise, he wouldn't have voiced such a strange bid.
A crystal-clear crystal appeared between Su Xiao's fingers, and then he looked at the host.
— Seventy thousand and a crystal.
When the host saw the crystal between Su Xiao's fingers, he just shrugged. Five small soul crystals had already been sold in this auction.
But after looking at it more closely, the host discovered that something was wrong. The size of this soul crystal was slightly different...
— What? Medium soul crystal? With that, the host quickly walked off the stage and took the soul crystal from Su Xiao's hands.
Although the price of soul crystals wasn't very high, they were too rare and were always considered a scarce commodity.
Soul crystals were necessary for crafting advanced items, for improving some skills, for crafting some advanced ingredients, for advanced scrolls...
The huge demand and small amount of supply resulted in a shortage of small soul crystals, not to mention medium-sized soul crystals.
For Su Xiao, obtaining soul crystals wasn't very difficult. He could buy these crystals for medals of honor.
The host, after examining the middle soul crystal, found himself in a quandary. He looked at the Holy Emperor and Hei Fan as if asking for their help.
And the eyes of the two of them actually shouted at him: "Idiot, hit the stand with a hammer already!»
The host immediately understood everything and, returning to the stage, hit the hammer and loudly announced — - Congratulations to Mr. Byakuya on winning, this lot goes to you.
The seventy thousand Paradise coins and the middle soul crystal disappeared, but immediately, Ebony and Ivory appeared in Su Xiao's hands.
Taking these pistols with both hands, Su Xiao was very satisfied. Cool to the touch, great weight and texture, plus the understanding that their strength was at a fairly high level... He was already itching to test them on someone.
The Emperor and Hei Fan were also very satisfied. Although they had only obtained one medium soul crystal, even one such crystal was a very good find.
Soul crystals could be plucked right off their hands for a hefty price, but practically no one sold them, which was why even the major factions were looking for any crystals with great diligence.
After receiving the two pistols, Su Xiao's interest in the auction hit rock bottom. Although he knew that there would be some more interesting lots displayed in the future, he didn't have any coins left, and just looking and not buying anything wasn't his style.
So Su Xiao got up and immediately left the auction. The Holy Emperor also left the auction with Hei Fan after a while.
With two pistols spinning on his fingers, Su Xiao returned to his exclusive space.
Everything obtained in the world of Steel Alchemist was converted into power. His stats had increased significantly, and his edged weapon skill had been upgraded to a sword skill, and at the same time, it had increased by three levels. On top of all this his weakness of not having enough power at mid range was resolved with two nice new pistols.
There's still a day and a half left before the survival test starts.
During these one and a half days, Su Xiao decided to do some business.
He had just over 10,000 Paradise Coins left in his account, and after making two of his best potions, he had three of them, so Su Xiao opened a stall in the marketplace and put out a secret alchemy potion at the price of 6,000 Paradise coins per bottle.
Of course, all three bubbles flew away in a couple of minutes.
The hen created the eggs, and the eggs created the hens. After Su Xiao received the Paradise Coins, he would immediately create a secret alchemy potion and immediately put it up for sale.
By the end of the third day, there were five bottles of secret alchemy potion and a bunch of bombs in his inventory.
In terms of consumables, he was one hundred percent ready. With the preparations completed, his time in Paradise had come to an end, and the test of survival was about to begin.
[The time to prepare is up, the survival challenge will start in one minute, the current number of participants — 501.]
[In case of successful completion of the survival challenge, the Hunter will be promoted to the second rank.]
[Survival challenge is about to be launched on the following location: Planet T12K; Devouring Island.]
Su Xiao's body was enveloped by an unusual force, and it was very different from normal strength. It was very powerful and the surrounding space seemed to be about to split apart.
Bubtney on the side was so terrified by this inexplicable and powerful force that he decided to relieve his bladder right at the same time...
