Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master
Chapter 191 All Were Treasures

It was apparent that there were a lot of rich people who were interested in collecting rare things from the wild spirit-manipulated beasts with their fortune. In addition, there were some spirit manipulators who were aiming at some materials of good quality so that they could use them to forge their weapons. The power of these spirit manipulators was just between the Mortal Stage and the Earthly Stage. Only two or three of those spirit manipulators were able to reach the first grade of the Earthly Stage.

In the Evian City, spirit manipulators that were beyond the Earthly Stage were unusual. At the Gehenna Border, either in the military camps or as leaders of hired spirit manipulators like the man that Rocky met before, they were regarded as overmatches. Therefore, in normal conditions, it was rare for spirit manipulators at the Earthly Stage to come and go freely in the city.

At that moment, Rocky noticed that there were several female spirit manipulators at a corner near him. What piqued his interest were how they were all dressed as maids. Even though they restrained their auras, with his power at the second grade of the Earthly Stage, it was easy for Rocky to sense their true power. Furthermore, all of them were apparently between the sixth and the ninth grade of the Mortal Stage. In other words, their power when combined was almost equivalent to that of a strong team.

The female spirit manipulators just stood calmly at the corner like expressionless statues. Their calm composure stood out from the chaos of the crowd. It was apparent that they had gone through rigorous training. There was a woman who was sitting peacefully among the group. She was wearing a dress made out of pink tissues and it made her look beautiful and elegant. She was wearing a veil over her face but it could not hide her flawless and delicate features. Rocky barely saw the outline of her gentle eyes and long dark hair. Anyone who gazed upon her became tempted to see the true beauty that was hidden by her veil.

What attracted Rocky more was the unfathomable aura that was exuding from her. He couldn't evaluate her power at all. Rocky was convinced that she was not as weak as she would like people to assume. There must be some kind of reason for her to conceal her power on purpose.

'I guess those female spirit manipulators are guarding the veiled woman. Who is she? Why does she have that many powerful spirit manipulators around her? Why is she hiding her true power? She must be someone remarkable, ' Rocky speculated while looking at the woman intensely.

The people started noticing the woman and her bodyguards. They became curious of her identity. Moreover, the men found it difficult to look away from the group because all of her bodyguards were also very good-looking.

If they knew that the woman that they were ogling was the Deputy Commander in Chief of the Crimson Dragon Group, they would surely not dare stare at her in such a disgusting manner.

The woman that was wearing the veil was none other than Isis, the cousin of Marin. No one would have guessed that the Deputy Commander in Chief of the Crimson Dragon Group would appear at the auction, so they just assumed that the veiled lady must be from a wealthy and influential family. The reason why Isis was there was very simple. Because of her current status, she was not allowed to go shopping like other adolescent girls. Moreover, she was so busy with official business and military affairs that she hardly had time to buy things on her own. Therefore, after dealing with all of her tasks, she decided to go to the auction house to buy some rare items and advanced materials that she could use at her leisure. After all, Isis was just another young girl who liked to shop pretty things.

After a few minutes, a new round of auction started and new auction items were displayed. On the three-feet-high stage, there were several scantily clad women who enchantingly walked across the stage. Each of them were holding a plate on their hands and on those plates, different kinds of items and rare things of the wild spirit-manipulated beasts were displayed for the audience to see. However, they were all worthless because all of the items were only from one-star spirit- manipulated beasts.

"How could they auction such rubbish? This branch store of the Super Beast Farm is too disappointing, * Rocky mumbled quietly at the sight of the auction items. None of them could rival the ones in his basket. He despised each one of the items on the stage.

However, it made sense that they would auction such items since the spirit manipulators at the Gehenna Border did not live on hunting wild spirit-manipulated beasts. For them, wild spirit- manipulated beasts were too powerful and dangerous to hunt. Also, wild spirit-manipulated beasts gathered in crowds and it made them much more difficult to hunt. If a spirit manipulator was not powerful enough, the beasts would kill and eat him easily. That was why spirit manipulators in the city always avoided hunting wild spirit-manipulated beasts in order to protect themselves.

It explained clearly why the materials and the rare things from one-star spirit-manipulated beasts were so hard to get here. As for things from two-star spirit-manipulated beasts, they were very few. Powerful spirit manipulators did not want to kill such weak spirit-manipulated beasts. On the other hand, weak spirit manipulators were powerless against them.

The people reluctantly averted their eyes from Isis and her female bodyguards to focus on the auction items on display. Their eyes were lighting up while they indulged in admiring the auction items as if they were remarkable treasures.

Gradually, the auction started and the heated bidding for each item began.

Rocky, smiling to himself, showed no interest in joining them. His eyes surveyed the room and he noticed that a middle-aged man, who seemed to be the boss of the auction house, was conducting something at the side of the stage like a director. Rocky walked over to him.

"Excuse me, are you the boss here?" Rocky asked him curiously.

The middle-aged man turned to him and inspected Rocky. After a few seconds, he suddenly glared at Rocky and cursed in heart the clerk who had allowed such a country bumpkin to enter the premises. He could not help but get angry at having a person in rag-like clothing and a basket on his back inside his precious auction house. Rocky decided to ask him again if he was the boss of the auction house and to that he replied impatiently, "Yes, I am. What's that to do with you?"

"I want to sell some things here, so I'd like to discuss it with you in private,” Rocky said calmly, revealing no anger at the boss’ disdainful tone. As a seller, instead of drawing attention to him, he preferred to stay low key.

"If you want to sell some things, then you better go downstairs. What we sell here are treasures and not cheap garbage, do you understand? We sell precious things like those on the stage..." the boss said proudly while staring at Rocky in disgust.

"You call those treasures? In my eyes, they are nothing but rubbish,” Rocky said contemptuously. He was starting to feel a little annoyed at the boss’ rudeness.

When he heard Rocky's words, the boss looked at him like he was crazy. He became convinced that Rocky was an abnormal, so he decided to just wave him away and urge him to leave. After looking at Rocky one last time, he gestured to the women on the stage.

When one of the women noticed his gesture, she walked to the front of the stage and displayed the auction item on her plate. "This is the softest crocodile hide that comes from the belly of a one-star Swamp Crocodile. Neither water, fire, nor any weapon could do damage to it. We start the bidding at fifty golden coins.”

"One hundred golden coins.”

"One hundred and fifty golden coins.”

There were a lot of people who bid up the hide of the one-star Swamp Crocodile. Finally, to Rocky's surprise, the ordinary hide was sold for three hundred golden coins.

The woman stepped down from the stage and gave the hide of the one-star Swamp Crocodile to the highest bidder in person. After paying for it, the businessman grinned cheekily and then seized the opportunity to grab the woman's backside.

The woman cried cutely at having her backside grabbed and surprisingly appeared as if she enjoyed the attention. She then handed the three hundred golden coins to the boss immediately. The golden coin circulated through the Wild Spirit Land.

"Ha-ha. I bought that for only one hundred golden coins. I earn two hundred golden coins because of that,” the boss said in excitement. When Rocky heard that, he realized that the boss was fairly pleased with his profits.

"I never thought that the hide of a one-star Swamp Crocodile could be so valuable. That would make the hides of two-star Swamp Crocodiles inside my basket, more or less, a several hundred golden coins worth,” Rocky murmured to himself while still standing next to the boss. He finally felt that he came to the right place.
