Elara and the Grand Elder exchanged surprised glances, as for Thorn he looked at the mysterious man with his sharp eyes. The bid of 50,000 soul coins meant that the mysterious cultivator now possessed a total of 110,000 soul coins, nearly half of their overall resources. It was a staggering amount for a lone cultivator.
"Who is this person?" Elara whispered, her voice tinged with awe. "How can he have so many soul coins on his own?"
The Grand Elder, his eyes fixed on the mysterious cultivator, added, "We should be cautious. Such a cultivator, with vast resources and unknown origins, poses a potential threat."
"It's truly astonishing," Thorn replied, his voice filled with amazement. "He must have a secret source of soul coins or a hidden background that grants him access to such resources." he said, while licking his lips.
