Chapter 317-Bidding
"1,500,000 spirit stones."
"Our Earon Clan bids 2 million spirit stones."
"Our Yeaga Clan bids 3 million spirit stones."
Every family and prominent family bid with high prices, and the excitement was at its peak.
"7 million spirit stones."
Suddenly, the price rose to several million, and everyone looked at room no.1. The room was open, and everyone saw a young man standing there with an old butler. Others recognized him and didn't expect him to bid.
"Wow, is he Young Master Reynold? I didn't expect him to bid for the sword."
"Yeah, I thought he didn't need this sword because he was not a swordsman."
Many people talked to each other, and Dave looked at Reynold. He saw that Reynold was also an Imperial Saint, and his bone age was only 240 years old. He wore a calm expression, and it was hard to discern what he was thinking.
Roco was stunned and spoke, "I didn't expect Master Reynold to be here as well. He was one of the candidates before to become the holy son, but he was defeated by the holy son in 3 moves."
"His status in the clan was also high and favored by many elders. He was the son of one of the 5 generals."
Dave smiled and didn't expect to meet an interesting person here, apart from Rain. He didn't care about Reynold since he was defeated by his father. His father's talent was top-tier, and even now, Dave couldn't guarantee that he could win against him using raw power.
If not for his father taking care of him in the mortal plane, his father might have already reached a stronger cultivation level.
Old Ming explained before that there are hundreds of commanders, and they are under the 5 Generals of the guards. Some clansmen enter the ranks of being soldiers, and Reynold's father must be one of the Generals who had the bloodline of the Alexander Clan.
Dave checked Reynold's body and saw that his bloodline was thicker than others, but it was weaker than his grandpa's. For others, Reynold could still be considered a genius, but for Dave, he was already old and his power was mediocre.
Dave smiled and felt that it was now the time to show off.
"15 million spirit stones."
Suddenly, a calm voice could be heard, and Dave doubled the bid in an instant.
"What?"
"Wow! Who is that guest in room no.7?"
"He must be one of the rich young masters to spend such money."
Dave gained a lot of sin points, and he saw Reynold's expression turn ugly. Dave's bid directly slapped him in the face, as if he was showing off his wealth. If Dave wanted, he could borrow his father's money, but he didn't need to do it because his wealth was definitely more than even the elders of the clan.
He just didn't have time to spend it, so he decided to use it here. He rarely needed cultivation resources because he could get stronger using sin points, unlike others who needed wealth to buy resources.
Rain looked at room number 7 with a smile and said, "Since room no.7 bid 15 million spirit stones, is there anyone else who would like to bid?"
Everyone became silent for a moment until someone bid again.
"16 million spirit stones."
Reynold bid again, and everyone could see that his calm expression from a while ago changed, and now he was gritting his teeth. He just wanted to regain his face and didn't want others to look down on him. It was painful for him to spend such a large sum, even though he was rich. He still needed to consult his elders if he was spending so much money.
"Tsk, what a poor fellow. Since I'm in a good mood, I will bid 30 million spirit stones."
Dave's voice was heard again, and everyone was shocked.
"Wow, he is really a tycoon."
"His voice sounds young, but he must be from a prominent clan."
"Yeah, from his voice, spending such wealth seems easy for him."
Reynold was stunned and realized that he was insulted. Everyone was amazed by the person in room number 7, but he swallowed his anger and didn't bid more. 30 million spirit stones were a huge wealth even for him, and he needed 5 years to collect them.
He felt that the person in room number 7 still had a lot of money, so he decided to back down, but he kept this matter in his heart.
"Investigate the person in that room," he commanded his men, and they bowed to him and nodded. No one doubted whether room number 7 would pay, because no one had the guts to joke in the main auction hall of the Alexander Clan, or else they could not leave this domain alive.
Rain saw that no one was bidding again and noticed many people smiling bitterly. Some wanted to get the sword, but they didn't have the funds to acquire it. She was stunned when the person in room number 7 spent such a wealth, and even her own wealth was only 150 million spirit stones.
Spending such money on a sword was considered prodigal.
"Since no one bids again, the winner is our guest from room no.7," Rain announced, waving his hand, and asked the person to deliver the sword to that room. Many looked at the room in awe and tried to see who the person receiving the sword was when the delivery person entered the room, but they only saw a young man wearing ordinary clothes and realized that he must be a follower of that person.
Jiang Chen received the sword at Dave's command, and Dave also paid for it. Dave didn't even flinch when he took out such wealth. Dave, who was a money grabber, swore to help the poor while robbing the rich and finally achieved such goals.
He was proud, but no one could see it because he maintained his calm appearance. Grace knew how wealthy this bastard was, but she was happy to see him lose some wealth because he was the one who always took advantage of others.
She felt that Dave must be gritting his teeth to spend such money, but she didn't know how deep Dave's wealth was. Dave had roamed to many worlds and extorted a lot of people with dedication and with his heart, accumulating almost a billion spirit stones. He also received a reward from the Royal Clan when he exposed the plans of demons, and he got 5 billion spirit stones from that and a token to their library.
He also got some treasures from Tracy, most of which could be sold at high prices, and at last, the money he stole from Roco, but it was only 7 million spirit stones.
He was never short on money, and spending 30 million was light work for him.
