《Eternal Thief 》Chapter 124: Beast Calling Auction (3)
Advertisement
After Skylar reprimand Victor, he didn't bid anymore and those other large households finally get the chance to shine.
The remaining 58-sets sold in two hours however, the bid never crossed the 8000 low qi stone mark.
People thought the competition for those seats would be intense, but it wasn't the case after a single-seat turn into a set of 53 because commoners can't folk out this kind of wealth.
Even if they manage to bough a set, someone powerful will kill them and so no one is willing to take any chances. They didn't have any large families like those nobles behind them.
Everyone included the nobles, was full of resentment because their one-thousand low qi stones have somewhat turned into just a mere tick for this show.
"Now ladies and gentlemen, let's start the auction of the faster category with no further ado," Rachel announced.
Everyone's expression was solemn because this category was faster and everyone wanted to get in the capital as quickly as possible, so these sets of seats are going to be very important.
"We have thirty set in this category… and there are 55 seats in every seat. Meaning 1650 seats in the faster category." Rachel reviled with a smile.
"Now the first set starting bidding is… 5000 low qi stones, and every bid has to be increased by 500 low qi stones or more." The first biding for faster category begun after Rachel called.
"5500…"
"6000…"
"6500…"
The heated battle of bidding begun with quick prices climbing and finally it crossed the 10,000 mark.
"Little brother Javier, How about we bought this a set together?" Jason beam at Javier, who was silently watching the auction.
"Hah, hah, you want to bid for the faster category?" That man behind sneered as he had bone to pick with Jason because of what he did before. "Don't deceive yourself, boy."

"Then don't mind if I do." Jason chuckles coldly without turning behind.
"20,000…" Jason loudly speaks.
The avenue instantly turn silent as everyone looked in Jason's direction.
"Which family did this youngster belong to?" The whispering began.
'Idiot.' Ace cursed. He didn't want anyone to see Javier's face, but Jason has spoiled his plans.
"That gentleman at the seat 64,033 has bid 20,000 low qi stones. Any high bid?" Rachel smiled at Jason as she scans the crowd.
No bid comes as she has started to count, "20,000 one… 20,000 two… and 20,000 going three! Congratulation, on winning the first seat of the faster category."
Rachel smile as she sends a white streak towards Jason's beast token and a green color '1' appeared on Jason's beast token. The color number was completely different and this astonished many.
"You can't have this amount of wealth, you are just a lowlife!" That man behind Ace spoke loudly at this moment. He thought Jason was bluffing to intimidate him and he won't let this chance get past him since Jason was seeking his death.
That's why he waited for Rachel to end the bidding and engrave the number on Jason's beast badge first so he could not escape his fate anymore or borrow any qi stones from the brat next to him, either.
Moreover, if he would've spoken before, many hot-blooded nobles would not let a commoner win this set since this would be a slap to their faces and even join hands to destroy him.
However, now everything is under his control. At least, that's what he thought the case was.
"Oh, how do know I'm a lowlife?" Jason finally looked at the man for the first time with icy eyes and when he saw he couldn't help but exclaim, "Oh, my what a beast."

That man has a gorilla face!
Everyone laughed when they also notice the resemblance.
Even Rachel couldn't help but place her snowy hand in front of her lips to hide her laugh and Aden's two disciples also giggle gracefully.
"Ah, youngster these days." Aden chuckles lightly.
That man's gorilla-like face instantly turned bright red, seeing everyone holding their laughter back. Veins popped on his forehead as he rebukes angrily, "You are a commoner and you're bluffing! If not, then pay right now!"
He won't let this humiliation slid, if Jason now borrowed the qi stone he would embarrass himself in front of the crowd, and most importantly he would become a target!
Now everyone was waiting for Jason's response.
Jason sighed helplessly as he looked at the stage and said, "Can I pay that old uncle?" He pointed his finger at the old man standing guard.
"No, every payment has to be made at the end of the auction, so please just show qi stones to clear that friend's suspicions," Aden spoke at this moment with a gentle smile. But by siding with the gorilla-faced man, he clarified that he also has doubts.
Jason smile back at Aden and flip his hand a small mountain of glittering qi stones appeared and with another flip, it vanished again. "Happy?" He deeply looked at the stage.
"Hahaha. Indeed, youngsters, these days are not to be underestimated." Aden laugh heartedly as he nodded towards Jason while closely scanning the young man.
"Investigate him!" Aden command but only his two disciples here him.
Jason innocently looked at the gorilla-faced man said with a serious face, "Ass-faced Uncle, don't start crying now or I'll die while laughing."
"Hahaha…"
Another bout of laughter rang in the avenue.
'Scoundrel.' Skyler's forehead redden a little.
Ace wryly smiled, 'What a clown.'
"Ahem…" Rachel cough lightly to hide her reddening face and spoke seriously, "Please, don't create any further disturbance or we have to escort you out."
The crowd instantly settles down after the little show.
"Brat, just you wait." The gorilla-faced man threatened with a naked killing intent toward Jason.
Jason ignore him completely and every commoner around the area felt refreshed after watching this guy who was continuedly insulting them turn into a laughing stoke.
"Little brother, I'll sell you one seat for ten thousand low qi stones. How is my brotherly discount?" Jason jest.
"No thanks." Javier scoffed!
