Chaotic Sword God

re that the first Class 5 Monster Core has been bought by the guests in booth eight.”

The wooden hammer of Yulian smashed against the table, declaring that the first Class 5 Monster Core had been bought for three hundred thousand purple coins.

Within booth eight, Tie Ta stared at Jian Chen in confusion, “Jian Chen, you spent so much money to buy a Class 5 Monster Core? Why? That’s not worth it.”

Smiling slightly, Jian Chen replied, “Three hundred thousand purple coins sounds like a lot, but it isn’t anything to me.
This money was really just something that fell into the hands of the people in this group.
Like the hair from nine oxen, this is nothing.”

“Jian Chen, you wouldn’t do something so senseless like this without reason.
Do you have a hatred of some sort that required you to use the Class 5 Monster Cores to draw them out?” Ming Dong asked out of curiosity.

Ming Dong’s words had caused memories to flash back into Jian Chen’s mind.
His eyes took on a slightly harsher glint to them as he replied, “Correct.
I have a debt to pay with them.
Two years ago, I sold the bodies of two Class 5 Magical Beasts in this auction house.
In the middle of it all, the people of the many clans and families chased me.
At that time, I was only a Saint Master.
With so many people chasing after me, I barely made it out of that place alive.
An Earth Saint Master from the Harido clan chased me to the point where I was forced off a cliff in a narrow escape.”

Ming Dong’s eyes had a flash of killing intent at his words.
With a growl, he replied, “So I see.
In that case, this hatred will be something that they will definitely pay for.
I guarantee it, brother.”

Sitting right next to Jian Chen, You Yue said nothing, and instead stared at him with eyes that reflected none of the tranquil expression on her face.
Jian Chen’s words had painted a clear picture in her mind.
It was in this moment that she realized just how terrifying a situation Jian Chen had suffered if so many individuals had chased Jian Chen as a Saint Master.
Such a traumatizing experience would make any person shudder.

“Yan Kaizer of the Harido clan.
Not once will I ever forget this name.” Jian Chen’s eyes frosted over with an aura of killing intent.

After the first Class 5 Monster Core was sold, there was a small break before the second monster core could begin being auctioned.

“Now we shall begin the auction of the second Class 5 Monster Core.
The starting price will be fifty thousand purple coins.
Each bid will be a minimum of a thousand purple coins.
This will be the very last Class 5 Monster Core, so I implore each and every guest to cherish their time and make their decision — this will be a once-in-a-lifetime chance to obtain a Class 5 Monster Core with ease.” Yulian announced with a loud voice.
She was filled with hope for this next auction, and could not wait to see just how much money the second monster core would sell for.

At the end of her words, plenty of people had immediately launched into a barrage of prices.

“Sixty thousand purple coins….”

“Seventy thousand!”

“Seventy five thousand!”

One by one the bidders in the booths had increased the price.
This time the Harido clan did not bother to interject with their own price so the amount of people fighting for this one had increased exponentially.
Soon enough, the price had already gone over a one hundred thousand purple coins.

“The Youlan clan offers one hundred ten thousand purple coins…”

“The Flowing Cloud Sword Pavilion offers one hundred ten thousand five hundred purple coins…”

“The Tianhua Sect offers one hundred twenty thousand purple coins…”

“The Mutian clan offers one hundred twenty thousand five hundred purple coins…”

“The Kadir clan offers one hundred thirty thousand…”

“One hundred forty thousand purple coins…”

“One hundred forty thousand five hundred purple coins…”

The price had already skyrocketed far beyond one hundred fifty thousand purple coins because of the intense price war.
At this moment, a new bidder caused every other bidder to pause.

“The Blaze clan of Tianlong City offers one hundred eighty thousand purple coins.
This Class 5 Monster Core is something my clan needs, I hope everyone will give my Blaze clan some face…”

“Our Feng family of Huaxin City offers one hundred ninety thousand purple coins.
Our Feng family requires this Class 5 Monster Core as well, please do give us some face for this.”

Thus, the entire auction house was silent again.
The Blaze clan of Tianlong City and the Feng family of Huaxin City were both factions from First Class cities.
They were strong in power and were not figures that the Flowing Cloud Sword Pavilion, the Youlan clan, or the three clans from Fengyang City could go against by themselves.

“The three major clans and the city lord of Fengyang City desire this Class 5 Monster Core, we offer two hundred thousand purple coins.” The lord of Fengyang City had called out.
With the three major clans of the city combined, they were truly now a figure that did not fear even the families of a First Class city.

A Class 5 Monster Core was truly too precious.
In a First Class city, only one would appear every three years or so with a tremendous clash following each appearance.
When Fengyang City declared an auction of two Class 5 Monster Cores, every single power-hungry person had decided this was not an opportunity to miss.

“Our Guyun clan offers two hundred ten thousand…”

“The Spirithawk Mercenaries offer two hundred twenty thousand…”

“The Wargod Sect offers two hundred thirty thousand purple coins…”

The price continued to climb.
The words of even the clans of a First Class city were no longer any use here with no one else bothering to give them face.
At this moment, every major faction had decided to risk it; some of these factions were ones with strengths that were almost comparable to the Harido clan’s influence.
