"What? He increased the bid by a full billion!"
"Either he's gone crazy in his bidding war with that private booth, or he really wants the lightning core! That's almost double the value it's truly worth!"
"Who knew he had so many spirit crystals though. This definitely confirms that he was toying with whoever is in that private booth!"
"I wonder who's in there? They can't be feeling good about this auction right now."
The crowd continued to discuss the bidding war, which had surprisingly increased by a full billion for the last bid.
John's calm gaze continued to stare at Vivian's private booth, as if taunting her to bid once more. Meanwhile, Vivian's face had turned completely red with anger, as she finally realized the truth of the situation.
"That fucking brat! I'll kill him!" she yelled angrily as she threw her wine cup away, smashing it against the booth wall.
