Nine Dragons Saint Ancestor

This turn of events delighted Mei Qian on the auction stand. Nothing is more feared in an auction than a lack of competition. Once competition appears, even an ordinary item could fetch several times its value, which is excellent for the auction organizers.

”Three hundred and sixty thousand!”

Despite being watched by Kong Sihai’s angry and vicious eyes, Chu Nian seemed oblivious. His minimal bidding increase was like boiling a frog in water, like a small boat riding huge waves, unyielding regardless of the storm.”

”Chu Nian, are you really going to stand against my brother?”

The casually calm demeanor of the opponent finally made Kong Sihai lose his composure. However, as he spoke, many people curled their lips, thinking that although Sky Thunder Valley is strong, flaunting power at Spirit Fighting Commerce is something that must be carefully weighed.

”It’s just an auction; isn’t it a matter of who has more money?”

Although Chu Nian appeared burly, his retort was tactful yet sharp, suggesting that if Sky Thunder Valley did not have the money, they should stop while ahead and not try to coerce others with their power. Moreover, even if they did try, the Chu Family might not necessarily fear Sky Thunder Valley.

”Four million!”

Kong Qianshan was composed compared to Kong Sihai, so he directly bid without much ado, demonstrating a determined intention to acquire the Judgement Thunder Introduction.

”Four million one hundred thousand!”

Chu Nian remained in his lazy state. In fact, in terms of financial power alone, the three families might slightly surpass Sky Thunder Valley, and being well-prepared, they naturally had ample funds.

”Five million!”

Kong Qianshan’s expression turned somewhat grim. Originally without any animosity towards the Chu Family, he now hated Chu Nian to the core. But since this was the territory of Sky Thunder Valley, they could not lose face no matter what. They had to get their hands on the Judgement Thunder Introduction.

The bid of five million gold coins made many in the venue gasp, as the Earth Rank Advanced Pulse Skill, originally worth only two or three million, had been forcibly doubled. On the auction stage, Mei Qian’s face was almost blossoming with a smile.

”Tsk tsk, Sky Thunder Valley is indeed wealthy; fine, the Judgement Thunder Introduction is all yours, Kong brothers!”

Under the slightly provocative gaze of Kong Sihai, a smile unexpectedly appeared on Chu Nian’s face as he spoke, causing everyone to ponder. Could this guy be doing it on purpose?

If Chu Nian was indeed doing it on purpose, then his bid was completely opposite to Xiao Qiming’s earlier bid. One aimed to favor the Kong brothers, while the other intentionally disgusted them. Could there be some grudge between them?

Kong Family’s eldest, Kong Qianshan, nearly had a face dark enough to drip water. Initially determined to stop if Chu Nian bid again, he had not expected the other to be even more decisive.

Because of this, the Earth Rank Advanced Pulse Skill that could have been obtained for three million gold coins ended up costing five million. This alone implied potential risks for the brothers during the cultivation of the Judgement Thunder Introduction, as they would be reminded of Chu Nian’s mocking face.

Being notable Twin Thunder Sons of Sky Thunder Valley, residing in their home ground, the Kong brothers had never felt so suffocated, especially by the Chu Family’s Chu Nian, and in the auction hall of Spirit Fighting Commerce. They truly had nowhere to vent their frustration.

”Congratulations to the two young men of the Kong Family for winning the Judgement Thunder Introduction at the price of five million gold coins!”

Mei Qian on the auction stage did not entertain many thoughts. Seeing that Chu Nian indeed had no intention to outbid, and after asking three times symbolically, her small hammer fell swiftly. However, the words she spoke carried a hint of mockery in the ears of the Kong brothers.

This damn spending nearly double the price to get Judgement Thunder Introduction, what’s there to congratulate about? Although the Kong brothers were the first auction winners, feeling the strange gazes, they wished they could find a hole to hide in.

”This Chu Nian...”

Compared to the Kong brothers, Xiao Qiming’s gaze swept over Chu Nian from a distance, slightly shaking his head. He naturally knew this person, and as both were Origin Seeking Realm Early Stage geniuses, they were also potential rivals.
