The new bidder was none other than Xiang Shaoyun. He had been waiting for everyone to be done bidding before he joined in. His timing was perfect. After he spoke, he attracted everyone's gaze. Everyone started wondering who this ordinary-looking man actually was for him to be so rich. They recalled how that man had said earlier that he had a lot of money. It would seem like he wasn't kidding at all when he had said that.

”He must have made all those spirit crystals from selling the top-quality goldsteel stone,” Wen Jinnuo said to his brother with an envious look.

”Hmph. He can't stay c.o.c.ky for long. Soon, everything he has will be ours,” Wen Jinrui narrowed his eyes and said.

Li Yaxuan, Xie Sanqian, and Ye Xuan were also starting to pay attention to Xiang Shaoyun. They could sense that Xiang Shaoyun did not feel particularly strong. On the other hand, the young woman by Xiang Shaoyun's side attracted more of their attention.

A voice rang out from the VIP room, ”5,100 mid-grade spirit crystals.”

Xiang Shaoyun replied without any hesitation, ”6,000 mid-grade spirit crystals.”

His act of increasing the bid by 900 mid-grade spirit crystals in one go created an uproar.

”Who exactly is that person? Is he stupid? Why is he raising the bid by such a large increment?”

”I guess he is so rich he has no place to spend his spirit crystals. That is why he is using the spirit crystals so wastefully.”

”No, if he can get the coldstar stone and then the earthcore fire through these spirit crystals, it would be completely worth it. However, it won't be easy at all to get the earthcore fire.”

”Just keep watching. That kid might have a strong background for him to be acting so fearlessly.”

...

Xiang Shaoyun did not care at all what these people thought of him. In his eyes, spirit crystals were merely a currency to be spent. After spending them, he could always earn more. As for the coldstar stone, it was extremely rare, and it might be the only one he could get for now. Thus, he could not miss out on it.

”This young master has just offered 6,000 mid-grade spirit crystals. Any other bids?” asked the auctioneer in excitement. He was only expecting to auction the coldstar stone off for about 4,500 mid-grade spirit crystals. Surprisingly, a whale had appeared today.

”7,000 mid-grade spirit crystals. If you can offer more, I will give up,” said the person in the VIP room after a short silence.

”Sure. 7,100 mid-grade spirit crystals. Thank you,” Xiang Shaoyun smiled.

After listening to Xiang Shaoyun's final offer, everyone heaved a sigh of relief and thought that the fellow was still normal after all. If Xiang Shaoyun had insisted on increasing the price by another 1,000 mid-grade spirit crystals, they would most likely have gone crazy on his behalf.

Xiang Shaoyun had successfully won the bid, but the actual trade would only be made after the end of the auction.

Heh, this trip is worth it after all, Xiang Shaoyun thought joyfully.

”Alright. Let us move on to our final item,” announced the auctioneer before signaling the employees to bring out an item. The moment the item appeared, the Nether Soul Domain in Xiang Shaoyun's head suddenly reacted. It grew so excited it nearly charged out of his head.
