"Does anyone want to offer a higher bid than Master Dai-Hu-Tian?" Wang-Lin-Chan rushed to check if the other bidders wanted to make a higher offer. She intentionally did it to stop the psychological war between Old Gim-Mei and Dai-Hu-Tian. Then she glanced at Zheng-Fu because she was curious why he was unusually quiet for the auction of the Spiritual Qi energy stone…

*How come he doesn't make an offer for the Spiritual Qi energy stone? Or is it because he has no money left? It doesn't look like it, though. But why hasn't he made any bids?*

"Five hundred sixty million monster crystal coins!"

The Third Prince raised his bidding tag to make another bid while giving a noble smile to the people who were looking at him. The reason why he came to bid for the Spiritual Qi energy stones was that he wanted to give the stone to his loyal assistants. He did not want it for himself because his hidden power was lightning, which was something considered rare.

Even though he could absorb the energy from the Spiritual Wind stone, he could only enjoy half of its effect. So, it would be better to give the stone to someone who had the wind element as their hidden power…

The Third Prince also intended to bid on the other three Spiritual Qi energy stones. As a third prince, he would not have any problems in terms of money. He speculated that the bid for the first stone should stop at around six hundred million monster crystal coins. The rest of the stones would probably be about the same price.

How much the bidder needed for each type of stone would be the factor that determined exactly how much each stone would be. So, he ordered his assistant to go back to his place and bring back three billion monster crystal coins for the auction…

"Respecting Third Prince, I thought your hidden power was the lightning element. So, can I ask you why you're bidding on the Spiritual Wind energy stone?" Zhang-Jing-Jing asked the Third Prince…

"I just want it for my loyal assistants. I don't need it for myself, actually." The Third Prince did not mind Zhang-Jing-Jing's question. He even gave him an honest answer…

"For the loyal assistants!?"

The crowd broke the silence again right after they heard the answer from the Third Prince. They started to feel jealous of his loyal assistants for getting the Spiritual Qi energy stones without having to buy them. However, those assistants did not feel the same way because they did not want anything back from the Third Prince. They worked for him, not out of profit but in gratitude.

When they heard that the Spiritual Qi energy stones were for them, they felt nothing else but more loyal to their master…

"Third Prince!"

"You heard it right! I came to bid on them for all of you, so you can use them to cultivate your Qi energy," the Third Prince said to his assistants behind him with a warm smile…

Zheng-Fu, who was sitting very close to the Third Prince, admired him after hearing the whole conversation. He thought that the Third Prince was not bad at all, but he still had some doubts about him. From what he had seen in the movies from the previous world, influential people tended to buy people by giving them free stuff…

*If he's really decent, I can come back to trade with him. There's still some more time to see him through.* Zheng-Fu wanted to forget about the Third Prince, for now, so he could get back to the auction…

"Five hundred sixty-five million monster crystal coins!"

"Five hundred seventy million monster crystal coins!"

"Five hundred seventy-five million monster crystal coins!"

"Five hundred eighty million monster crystal coins!"

No matter how much the other bidders raised the price, the Third Prince would topple those bidders without faltering. Pac-Du-Gu, Zhang-Jing-Jing, and Old Gim-Mei were intimidated by his way of bidding. It made them feel fearful of losing the chance to get the Spiritual Wind energy stone because three of them had the Spirit of the Wind as their hidden powers.

So, the stone was tremendously crucial for them in increasing their energy levels…

The auction got to the point where no one else wanted to make any more bids against the Third Prince because of the high price he offered. The three Elders and Dai-Hu-Tian did not make any moves and stayed quiet instead. The Bright-Sky Medicine Sect did not bid for the Spiritual Wind energy stone in the first place, so they just waited.

They only wanted to bid for the Spiritual Water and Fire energy stones…

"Does anybody want to offer a higher price for the Spiritual Wind energy stone? If not, then I'm going to start to count!" Wang-Lin-Chan tried to urge the other bidders to make an offer so the auction house would make more money. However, no one made any moves but kept quiet instead.

They just needed to sync up with the fact that they could not bid against the Third Prince because they had no more budget left…

"One… Two… Three…!"

Bang! Bang! Bang!

"Sold! Congratulations to the Third Prince for winning the Spiritual Wind energy stone at the price of five hundred eighty million monster crystal coins. You can pay and collect the stone anytime you're ready, sir!"

"I'll just wait until the auction is over. Please proceed, lady!" The Third Prince waved his hand to signal Wang-Lin-Chan to continue the auction…

"Yes, sir!"

After hearing the statement from the Third Prince, Wang-Lin-Chan steered everyone back to the auction. And it was time for the second Spiritual Qi energy stone, which was the spiritual stone of the earth element. And the starting price was set at ten million monster crystal coins, just like the first one…

As soon as the auction for the spiritual stone of the earth element began, the mysterious man in a mask raised the bidding tag and offered four hundred fifty million monster crystal coins instantly. That was a direct order from the second Elder of the Purple Dragon Auction House, Wang-Mu-Hai. He told the man in the mask to bid with all the budget he had at once…

Such a dramatic bidding style did not surprise anyone because the first stone was as high as five hundred million monster crystal coins. So, four hundred fifty million seemed to be something not exciting anymore. And as usual, the Third Prince made the following bid: four hundred sixty million monster crystal coins. It angered Wang-Mu-Hai tremendously.

His face turned completely red, but he had to stay quiet. What he could only do now was turn to Wang-Qin-Dai in the hope of borrowing some money from him…

Sigh!

"I guess one stone is better than nothing. However, I can only lend you two hundred million, and the rest is up to destiny. Alright!" Wang-Qin-Dai sighed before telling Wang-Mu-Hai that he would lend him the money. That cheered Wang-Mu-Hai up instantaneously. All he wanted now was to be able to go back to the auction of the spiritual stone of the earth element.

And he had six hundred fifty million monster crystal coins to fight for it…
