“Look, guys! There’s someone in VIP Room One! I wonder who they are. I’ve never seen them before,


    and it seems to me that he’s some sort of big shot.”


    “That’s a given. Someone like Jeremy is already among the top existences in Oolong City. His family,


    the Smallings, are one of the highest ranked of the first–tier families, but he could only get into VIP


    Hoom Two. The people in VIP Room One would definitely be a cut above him.”


    Some were busy bidding, while others who came simply to watch the excitement chatted among


    themselves. As soon as Jeremy heard those remarks from VIP Room Two, his lips twitched a couple of


    times and his face turned exceptionally ugly.


    “That darn county governor is stealing my limelight! It’s pissing me off!” Jeremy gritted his teeth angrily


    and continued, ” Hmph, he better hope I don’t get an opportunity to make him look bad.”


    His bodyguard reminded him, “This training technique looks good. It’s a middle–rank Sky–grade


    technique too. Would you like to bid for it?”

    Jeremy red at the bodyguard and said, “Are you stupid or something? I’m already using high–rank


    Sky–grade techniques to train. Why would I need something that’s inferior to what I’m using now?”


    The bodyguard smiled awkwardly and did not dare to say another word.


    The second item was undoubtedly very valuable too, and it took about ten minutes to be auctioned off.


    The winner was a middle–aged man.


    Caroline nced up at Severin and wondered why he had yet to make a move. When she remembered


    that he was an alchemist, she realized that Severin must have been aiming for the spiritual herbs.


    Furthermore, she was curious as to just how many spiritual stones Severin exchanged from the senior


    director. He was only allowed to go to the senior director if the exchange was over the junior director’s


    limit, otherwise there was no need to bother the senior director at all.


    “The third item is a third–grade spiritual herb known as the Skydawn Orchidheart. This is rather rare.”


    Caroline then


    auctioned the third item.


    Severin’s eyes lit up slightly. “Time to start bidding!”


    “The starting price of this Skydawn Orchidheart is five million high–grade spiritual stones. Please note


    that it’s high–grade spiritual stones. As you may all know, this is a very valuable third–grade spiritual


    herb. Subsequent bids must be a minimum of ten thousand high–grade spiritual stones.”


    After Caroline exined the rules, she said to everyone, “Okay then! Will anyone bid for this third–


    grade low–grade Skydawn Orchidheart?”


    “I bid five million and fifty thousand dors!” an old man stood up and shouted immediately.


    “Can I raise the bid on your behalf?” Megan asked Severin with a smile while drinking her red wine.


    Severin smiled wryly and said, “Why would you want to bid when you’re not the one paying for it?”


    “I know that! Can’t I just try my hand at bidding for it?” Megan asked.
