"The starting bid, one Elemental Coin!" dered the Golden Lion Auctioneer in a deep voice.


    One Elemental Coin was merely a symbolic price; the most important aspect wasn''t the price, but the significance that this auction item represented. To choose to bid was to bear the honor of both the Lion and Tiger ns. One must risk their life in ten years'' time. Moreover, not everyone was qualified to take this sword; trials were inevitable.


    Silence, the feedback from the three surrounding mountains was silence. No light from any bidding ques lit up. This implied that no being had chosen this auction item.


    With hair like golden threads atop his head moving without a breeze, the Golden Lion Auctioneer couldn''t help but roar, "Is it that neither of our ns has even one brave warrior left? Not even the courage to take up this God-killing Sword?"


    Before the auction had started, there had beenmunications between the two ns, and there were potentially seven or eight candidates willing to take on this responsibility. But at this moment, not a single one chose to step forward. Without a doubt, they were all uncertain and unwilling to gamble. For within the Lion and Tiger ns, they all knew who their opponent was, an opponent that brought them despair.


    Even the strongest among the Monster and Spirit ns, though unafraid of death, would not willingly seek it out.


    Auctions like this were not umon at the Ancestral Court''s grand auction. Any n could apply to the Ancestral Court and they were often for the purpose of seeking revenge or issuing a challenge. Whoever took the God-killing Sword was also signifying a challenge to the one who had offered it. One Elemental Coin was a symbolic price, but for the Lion and Tiger ns to make the other party offer this sword, the price paid behind the scenes was undoubtedly huge.


    Still, there was no movement. The Golden Lion Auctioneer could not contain his fury and abruptly gritted his teeth, ready to walk towards the heavy sword. He was also one of the seven or eight, but he, too, had no confidence in his heart. Others could hide, but as an initiator, he had no way out at this juncture. For the honor of the Golden Lion n, he had to step up.


    However, just at that moment, a light suddenly shone on the mountain wall.


    The Golden Lion Auctioneer abruptly halted and looked up towards that direction.


    It was a bidding cave situated at a lower position, with a conspicuous number that instantly caught his eye.


    "Number three hundred thirty-six? Bidder number three hundred thirty-six chooses to bid, offering one Elemental Coin."


    Feeling a surge of tion, the Golden Lion Auctioneer also quickly searched his memory to recall any information about this number three hundred thirty-six. But soon enough, he was certain that it was not one of the few he knew.


    Could it be a junior member? Yet, the financial power required to attend such an auction was not something any minor could possess!n/?/vel/b//jn dot c//om


    "Due to the special nature of the auction item, the bidder who obtains the God-killing Sword is required to visit the Ancestral Court Golden Lion n Headquarter within seven days after the auction ends. Pass the trials, and you will earn the rights to the God-killing Sword."


    Indeed, number three hundred thirty-six, the number of Tang San. The one who had secured the God-killing Sword was none other than Tang San himself.


    Of course, he was from neither the Lion nor the Tiger ns. But after careful consideration, he decided to participate in the bidding.


    Obtaining the God-killing Sword was certainly not an easy task; the challenge within ten years was mandatory, and there would inevitably be restrictions from the Lion and Tiger ns. A contract signing was inevitable, otherwise how could such a weapon casually fall into his hands?


    Today''s event at the Ancestral Court was a grand auction, and there was no chance that the trials would take ce on the spot. The auction schedule could not be dyed. So, the trials would surely happen after the auction.


    To participate in the auction, one needs a certain guarantee, not just money, but also a guarantor. Therefore, there is no fear of not finding bidders. Tang San''s guarantor was from the Redemption Organization, and so was Zhang Haoxuan''s.


    This four-meter long great sword was not auctioned by Tang San for himself, as he is neither from the Lion n nor the Tiger n, and though he could wield the power of the Lion Tiger Golden Gang, he remains human. Just because he cannot wield it, doesn''t mean there isn''t a suitable master for the sword. Wouldn''t the Lion Tiger Sword Saint be the perfect user for it?


    After the bloodline evolution of the Lion Tiger Sword Saint, he now truly possesses a first-level bloodline. With umted potential poised for release, breaking through to God Rank in the near future is not an insurmountable task. The power of the Lion Tiger Golden Gang surely surpasses that of both the Golden Lion n and the Golden Tiger bloodlines. His growth in the future is limitless, and it wouldn''t be difficult for him to be a Great Demon King within ten years.


    Indeed, the Lion Tiger Tribe has always been like fire and water with the Lion n and the Tiger n, but that was in the past when the Lion Tiger Tribe was deemed the cursed race, gued by their bloodline afflictions. Now, with Tang San''s help, this issue has been resolved. The rise of the Lion Tiger Tribe is an inevitable path.


    Tang San''s previous worry was mainly that the two main Golden Species would not permit the rise of such a hybrid race and would snuff them out before they grew strong enough. However, given that the Golden Lion n has brought out this God-killing Sword for auction today, it seems that the Lion and Tiger ns must be facing a great crisis. And in the midst of this crisis, what could be better than the emergence of a first-level bloodline within their ranks?


    A first-level bloodline means the potential to achieve the rank of Great Demon Emperor!


    The Tiger n still has the support of the White Tiger Great Demon Emperor, but the Lion n does not have such an emperor of their own. Therefore, when a first-level bloodline emerges within the Lion n, even if the bloodline isn''t pure, it is still a chance for the awakening of the Lion n. The bloodline of the White Tiger Great Demon Emperor isn''t golden either, but after bing the Great Demon Emperor, the rest of the Tiger n still bows before him. So, why can''t the Lion Tiger Sword Saint be the future emperor of the Lion n?


    For the Lion Tiger Sword Saint to achieve the rank of Demon King, and perhaps even Great Demon King in the future, an immense amount of resources is necessary. Having the strong backing of a powerful race like the Lion n would certainly make things easier.


    Therefore, after careful consideration, Tang San concluded that the benefits outweigh the disadvantages. The Lion Tiger Sword Saint certainly faces great challenges, but the probability of sess is high. The chances of getting the Lion n''s recognition are even higher. Also, this God-killing Sword is no ordinary weapon!


    On this God-killing Sword, Tang San sensed a true aura of ughter. Its material resembles that of a super divine weapon he had controlled before. Although it cannot bepared with that super divine weapon, the quality of its material suggests that upgrading it to God Rank in the future should be no issue. Such a treasure, for just one Elemental Coin, cannot be missed despite the many difficulties!


    Consequently, Tang San finally decided to bid.


    "Tang San, have you lost your mind?" The moment the Golden Lion Auctioneer announced bidder number three-three-six, Zhang Haoxuan''s astonished and enraged voice reached Tang San through themunication.


    "Don''t worry, Teacher, this isn''t for me. I''m confident," Tang San replied calmly.


    Zhang Haoxuan took a deep breath. If it were anyone else saying these words, he would probably rush over to confront them, but this was Tang San. Tang San had shown too many miracles for him to witness, and Tang San had never let him down.


    Still, he couldn''t help but caution, "We were guaranteed by an important undercover member of the organization. If we fail the Golden Lion test or fail to attend, it could lead to exposure. Please be very careful!" Now that the bid was made, it was toote for regrets.


    "One Elemental Coin for the first time!" The Golden Lion Auctioneer down below had already started the countdown.


    Undoubtedly, without more bids from the Lion or Tiger ns, Tang San secured the God-killing Sword—which was not yet a divine artifact but had the potential to be one in the future—for the price of just one Elemental Coin!


    Item by item, the auction continued, and such a "good deal" as one Elemental Coin certainly could not ur again. The auctioneer was reced with a member of the Fox Tribe; a female Blue Fox that resembled the Heavenly Fox n. The fur of the Blue Fox n is deep blue at the tips, turning white towards the base, which at a nce, makes them appear simr to the white Heavenly Fox n, but with an added unusual blue halo. This Female Blue Fox Auctioneer was extremely beautiful, far surpassing the Golden Lion Auctioneer in appeal.
