After some consideration, Ma Rong ultimately gave up on bidding any higher.
He really wanted to get a Dragon Tiger Pill, but the price had already risen to 14 million Spirit Stones, which was very high, and even if he continued to bid, it was not certain that he would succeed in obtaining the pill.
So, he gave up.
Another reason was that after Wan Li obtained the Dragon Tiger Pill, the family behind her could summon a large number of Pill Masters to jointly study the Dragon Tiger Pill Formula. Ma Rong, however, lacked such capability.
With Ma Rong giving up on bidding, the others also stopped making offers.
The last Dragon Tiger Pill was successfully auctioned to Wan Li for the price of 14 million Spirit Stones.
