"Everyone can see the ability of this amplifying orb. I believe a further explanation is not needed." Lady Seraphine said aloud, exciting the crowd.
With the demonstration that Lady Seraphine just did, there was no questioning about this orb being shady.
Lady Seraphine smiled brightly but inwardly she was disgusted by the crowd.
'Hmph, when there's a defective item, you all glare at with anger. Now a god-tier item is being auctioned, you all changed to a glistening expression.'
Lady Seraphine sneered at them but she continued to say, "This amplifying orb starting price is 10 million spirit stones, and don't think we're overpricing it. This amplifying orb is a party effect, aning there can be at least 10 people having their magic amplify by 25%."
As soon as Lady Seraphine finished speaking, the crowd began an intense bidding war.
The price instantly went up to 30 million spirit stones in less than a minute as everyone is eager to grab hold of the orb.
Such a powerful item is going to change their family position if they can improve their mages spell.
"You don't seem very interested in this amplifying orb." Back in the VIP room, Evie asked Zen softly.
Zen wasn't agitated or excited, rather, he seed calm and nonchalant.
"No, I'm interested but not as eager as those fools," Zen replied to Evie after thinking for a while.
The amplifying orb is tempting for him but he wasn't sure if it worth the money to buy an item with its purpose as support.
"You're thinking about buying it would be a waste since you don't have many allies by your side right," Evie said teasingly and Zen couldn't help but raise his eyebrow slightly.
Heaving a soft sight, Zen admitted that he wasn't trying to get it because he was always alone.
Alone, aning he works solo and not with a party mber. The last ti he tried it was back in the Forest of Trove and he was honestly exhausted at that ti.
Commanding his mber, focusing their back, defending the sideline, everything requires his full attention.
However, if he was alone at that ti, then there was nothing for him to worry about as he could simply teleport himself out whenever the situation beca unfavorable for him.
"You're always too sensitive at this kind of stuff, Evie."
"I'm not sensitive. It was just that you're too obvious and everything is shown in your expression."
'My expression? I always kept a deadpan look though.' Zen questioned inwardly as he stared at Evie for clarification.
Evie laughed a little bit and said, "Your expression is controlled very well. There is basically zero chance of detecting your current mood based on your facial appearance. But there is one thing you can never hide."
"One thing I can never hide?" Zen raised his eyebrow slightly.
"Your core in your abdon or more specifically, the mana core in your body," Evie said and leaned close to his ear before continuing.
"Although I was surprised when I detected two different yet similar cores in your body, I can tell one of them is a spiritual core for storing true qi while the other one is the mana core."
Zen beca surprised when his secret was found out by Evie. He has hidden them really well with the concealnt technique created by Cecilia to prevent the other true qi cultivator from detecting him.
So how was it possible for Evie to know? Unless she was even more profound than he initially thought and could possibly be soone even stronger than Cecilia.
Evie gave a mysterious smile but had no intention of clarifying him about how she found out his little secret.
Zen also didn't try to pry for more information due to the previous incident where he was faced with a chilling look.
"Princess Krista has bid 92 million spirit stones for the amplifying orb."
While Zen was busy figuring out how Evie managed to see through his secret, Lady Seraphine continued to be an announcer.
The amplifying orb was a hot item in demand as the price beca ridiculously high. Even Krista Dragoon was willing to spend over 90 million spirit stones on it despite her current predicant.
'It seed like she is really determined to succeed no matter the price.' Zen exclaid inwardly when she saw the fierce look on her face.
"Tch, just because you're a princess doesn't an you get everything. I bid 93 million spirit stones." Daphne Callia sneered as she was prepared to win everything.
Twitching her mouth slightly, Krista Dragoon was fuming mad inside. 'This snotty little brat really thinks I'm a pushover.'
Keeping a smile on her face, Krista Dragoon said, "Indeed, I may be a princess but at least I have never fallen so low in disgrace. Gaining so glory just to have it vanish in a re second because of soone better."
The taunting words of Krista Dragoon touched Daphne Callia's sore spot as she was ntioning the past events where Morgan Pelora has completely surpassed her.
*Clap*
*Clap*
"Well said, Princess Krista." Zen clapped his hand loudly as he complinted her words.
He was impressed by the fiery words coming out from Krista Dragoon. Never did he imagine that Krista Dragoon can co back in a swift manner against soone.
Daphne Callia gritted her teeth in anger as she pointed at Zen and exclaid, "Why the hell are you interfering with my conversation again? Do you have sothing against ? You're always targeting ."
Zen shrugged his shoulder as it wasn't intentional or maybe it was.
Smiling cheekily, Zen curved his lips upward as he said, "It's fun to ss with a snotty brat like you. You're just using your family's money to show off yet you're acting so arrogant."
Afterward, Zen looked at Morgan Pelora and said, "Compare to Morgan Pelora where she's a 4th tier alchemist and could earn her own money. What do you have to be proud of yourself? A 3rd tier alchemist that failed the test for becoming a 4th tier alchemist."
"Who the hell are you to judge ? Are you an alchemist yourself? Do you even know the difficulty and process to beco one?" Daphne Callia retorted instantly.
"That's right, I'm an alchemist," Zen calmly replied, shocking Daphne Callia, Morgan Pelora, and Krista Dragoon for such a revelation.
