As soon as the chief steward finished speaking, the entire venue erupted into commotion, followed by a burst of clamorous noise.
"Five thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones? They must be crazy for Spirit Stones!"
"It's just a sturdy broken rock. Even Nascent Soul Realm seniors can't smash it open—how could it be used to forge a weapon?"
"There are plenty of things in this world that look miraculous but remain unsolved for an entire lifetime. Spending so many Spirit Stones on something like that is truly more trouble than it's worth. Five thousand medium-grade Spirit Stones is far too high a price!" Even a Nascent Soul Realm expert shook his head slightly and spoke coolly.
"Five thousand one hundred medium-grade Spirit Stones!" At that moment, a voice rang out. Someone had made a bid.
The crowd fell silent one after another, their gazes turning toward the VIP seats.
Chen Fan looked over at the sound as well. It was that purple-haired Nascent Soul Realm woman.
This surprised him somewhat. Could it be that the woman recognized this divine stone?
Yet he had no time to think further. This was an auction, and most of the experts had no interest in the divine stone. If he did not act, it would fall into someone else's hands. He no longer hesitated, raising his hand slightly as he called out in a low voice, "Five thousand two hundred medium-grade Spirit Stones!"
This was also Chen Fan's second bid since acquiring the Seven-Star Divine Ore. The moment he made a move, he bid five thousand two hundred Spirit Stones. To everyone present, this was simply unbelievable.
Countless gazes swept toward him, their hearts filled with bewilderment. How could a mere Foundation Establishment Late Stage cultivator possess so many Spirit Stones? And what use was there
