1.5 Billion Coins for a Lesson
The host raised his hand.
"1.5 billion going thrice…"
His voice carried through the entire auction hall.
The final strike of the hammer fell.
"Congratulations to this distinguished guest in the Earth-class room for successfully bidding for this supreme-grade sword."
The hall erupted into another wave of discussion.
Some people were impressed by James's wealth.
Others were quietly laughing at what had just happened.
Several cultivators shook their heads.
"That was a strange bidding war."
"He spent 1.5 billion just to win a sword worth nowhere near that amount."
"I think the Heaven-class guest was playing with him."
"Playing with him?"
"Didn't you see? He stopped immediately after the 1.5 billion bid."
"Then that means…"
The speaker did not finish.
He did not need to.
Everyone understood.
Following the final decision of the host, James finally bought the Crimson Mystic Sword for 1.5 billion.
