Elder Cheng was feeling much the same.
When he had seen Xiao Chen spend so many Spirit Stones to bid on the Six Harmonies Divine Water, he had assumed the young man was just a prodigal son wasting his family's fortune.
'I was too hasty in my judgment.'
It seemed there was no need to ask around after all. The Li Huo Sect certainly didn't have a Xiao Family this powerful. This was entirely due to Xiao Chen's own strength. He had been a muddled old fool.
Elder Cheng couldn't help but sigh. "Truly, the new generation surpasses the old."
Tian Jianing was sighing for the same reason, but his words were meant for his family members. "I knew long ago that we couldn't win a bidding war against Xiao."
His family had previously said he'd given in too easily back at Shattered Stone Valley, but now it seemed his retreat had been perfectly justified.
The Ruibao Commerce Association had just demonstrated what would have happened if they had kept competing.
