Invincible Martial King

As Zhao Deming finished speaking, Yao Jie's face turned livid. His own savings, coupled with Senior Brother's help, amounted to only eight million four hundred thousand soul crystals. Now that Zhao Deming had already called out the price of the Charm cores to eight million four hundred thousand soul crystals, was he going to give up just like that?    

    

"The spirit grass in my possession should be worth a hundred thousand soul crystals, so I can only put my life on the line." Yao Jie took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "I'll pay eight million and five hundred thousand!"    

    

"If anyone can outbid this price, I, Yao Jie, am willing to give up. If not, then this Charm core is mine."    

    

"This fellow..."    

    

Looking at Yao Jie in the main hall, Zhao Deming was so angry that his teeth were itching. Why is this guy acting like a lunatic, continuing to raise the price even now, but now he has no way to back down. Even if he had to pay an extra hundred thousand soul crystals, he has to take down this Charm core.    

    

No matter what, this was not the time to back down.    

    

"Eight million six hundred thousand!"    

    

The eight million and six hundred thousand had almost reached his limit. Spending so much money to buy a Charm core for Lu Qiaoer, even the word "wastrel" was difficult to describe. If it was for him, then the problem was still to give it to Lu Qiaoer...    

    

But how could he take back what he said? Otherwise, the impression he built up in front of Lu Qiaoer would be shattered into pieces.    

    

If he could obtain Lu Qiaoer's favor and the support of Lu Family, then his position in the Unparalleled Marquis Mansion would be greatly consolidated. To that end, he would just treat these eight million six hundred thousand soul crystals as an investment!    

    

Zhao Deming comforted himself in his heart.    

    

"Sigh …"    

    

"It seems like I don't have any fate with this item."    

    

Yao Jie could not help but sigh, and then left the hall without looking back. From the looks of it, he was planning to withdraw from the Auction midway, and leave with the rest of the Heavenly Star Sect disciples.    

    

"I originally thought that Yao Jie could take down the Charm core, but it seems that I still can't beat Zhao Deming."    

    

"After all, the Unparalleled Marquis Mansion has countless of businesses in the Imperial City. In terms of wealth, the Unparalleled Marquis Mansion is still stronger."    

    

… ….    

    

Looking at Yao Jie's leaving figure, some people could not help but feel regret. The former was a hot topic in the Hundred Sects Meeting this time, if he could get help from Charm core, his strength would probably increase by a lot, and at that time, he might even become the real champion.    

    

"Hmph, if you want to fight with me, you're still a bit too inexperienced." Zhao Deming smiled like he was the victor.    

    

"If no one else bids, this old man will announce that the winner of this auction is …"    

    

"Nine million."    

    

Just as the elderly man who presided over the Auction was about to announce the news, an inappropriate voice rang out, and his tone was abnormally calm and collected.    

    

"This …"    

    

He had presided over countless Auction s, but none of them were like what he had witnessed today, where he had witnessed one after another of slapstick situations after events. They had all turned around too quickly, causing him to be somewhat caught off guard.    

    

"What?"    

    

Zhao Deming's smile instantly stiffened as he felt a wave of anger soaring into the heavens!    

    

"Am I hearing things? Someone gave nine million soul crystals, an increase of four hundred thousand soul crystals!    

    

"Heavens, who is it?"    

    

"It sounds like it came from the room next to Zhao Deming."    

    

… ….    

    

At first, the hall was silent, but soon after, everyone recovered from their absent-mindedness. They all raised their heads to look at Lu Chen's box, and their eyes were filled with indescribable shock and curiosity.    

    

"Junior Brother Lu, you nearly scared me to death." When Bu Zhan heard Liu Tie's bid, he heaved a sigh of relief. He was truly afraid that if Liu Tie had been slower by a bit, the Charm core would have been bought by someone else.    

    

Other people might be able to refine the energy within, but they could only refine a tenth of it at most. However, the cultivation technique that he cultivates is special, even if he were to refine it, he would be able to maximize the absorption of the special energy inside it. If he could obtain this Charm Core, he even had a certain amount of confidence that he would be able to stand out in terms of Hundred Sects Meeting, and might even have a chance of joining the Dagan Academic Palace.    

    

"Senior Brother Bu, don't make such a big fuss. We martial artists must maintain an unfazed attitude." Lu Chen winked at him and said naughtily.    

    

"Please spare me …" Bu Zhan smiled bitterly.    

    

"Bastard!"    

    

"Who the hell is next door?"    

    

"You're quite bold to actually dare to do such a thing."    

    

Zhao Deming fiercely punched the glass window, leaving a clear mark. He even had the urge to barge into the next room and ruthlessly beat up the person who opened his mouth. First, he was swallowed in front of everyone by Yao Jie, and now, he was cut off like this, it was simply going too far!    

    

"Others are openly bidding, is there something wrong with that?" Lu Qiaoer's cold voice came from behind, causing Zhao Deming to wake up immediately.    

    

"Qiao'er, I don't feel that he's inappropriate. It's just that he's a bit despicable." Zhao Deming realized that he had lost his composure and quickly tidied up his clothes, trying his best to regain his composure.    

    

"Aren't you despicable when others are despicable?" Lu Qiaoer glanced at him and said.    

    

"I …"    

    

Hearing this, Zhao Deming's face showed embarrassment, but he did not continue to refute.    

    

"No matter what, I must make this guy regret going against me, Zhao Deming. Before, there was never a later." Is there a need to continue bidding? He didn't have any plans to increase the price by four hundred thousand soul crystals in one breath. Who knew how much wealth the other side still had?    

    

"That's quite interesting. I really want to see who it is that can make Zhao Deming suffer such humiliation." The corner of Lu Qiaoer's mouth curled up, and she could not help but become a little curious towards the people in the room next door. Zhao Deming was Marquis Wushuang's Little Wu Steel, and in terms of Auction, he had completely offended him. This was not something that an ordinary person would dare to do.    

    

"Cough cough …"    

    

"Young Master Zhao, someone offered nine million soul crystals. Are you willing to continue?" Seeing Zhao Deming fall into a rare silence, the old man who presided over the Auction could not help but ask.    

    

"I …"    

    

Hearing that, Zhao Deming wanted to say something like "I'll beat you to death", but taking into account that Lu Qiaoer was still in the room, he suppressed this impulse.    

    

"I still want to keep the soul crystals to buy other auctioned items. As for this auctioned item … "I'll just give it to him then..." Zhao Deming felt his face burning up a little. He felt a little ashamed that he had to force his way up the stairs, but there was nothing he could do. He could only stammer out these words.    

    

Even though he was the little Noble Heir from Unparalleled Marquis Mansion, he still had a fixed amount of soul crystals every month, so he couldn't take out all of them and place them on top of the Charm core. Even if he put them all in, it would still be even more embarrassing to obtain them as well, and if the other party increased the price by four hundred thousand soul crystals in one go, it would either be bragging, or he would not lack financial resources.    

    

Because no one had ever dared to boast on Clear Moon Auction before!    

    

"Ha ha!"    

    

"I didn't expect Zhao Deming to have a chance to retreat."    

    

"What an eye-opener, but who exactly is the person in the room next door to his?" You actually have that much power to make Zhao Deming lower his head? "    

    

Hearing Zhao Deming's hesitant response, almost everyone in the hall couldn't help but laugh. However, they tried their best to conceal it, afraid that Zhao Deming would notice that everyone was holding it in very hard.
