"Eight million," One of the elders in the Hunt family VIP room said in a raspy voice. Unlike Michael, they were raising the bid by almost a million.
"Eight point one million," Eve mumbled under her breath. As she expected, Michael put in an eight-point one million bid. Luckily this time, the golden prince did not outbid Michael. Instead, everyone remained silent.
"Eight point one million. Going once," Rickston looked around everyone but did not hold any expectation to receive another bid.
"Going twice, going thrice. Sold to the gentleman in Voldigards room," Rickston exclaimed. Personally, Michael disliked Rickston revealing everyone's identity. It paved the way for rogue cultivators to ambush them. At first, Michael thought the auction would be anonymous. However, he was proven wrong.
Michael exhaled deeply.
"Why did you buy that?" Eve asked. Her voice was full of curiosity.
