The earth spears flew into the pack of Goblins that were still charging forward, claiming another wave of lives as over sixty more Goblins fell to the ground.

While everyone else rejoiced at how easily the Goblins were being defeated, Alec couldn’t help but frown at the slow progress in skill development.

He wished the others would upgrade their skills as quickly as his golems did.

However, he quickly realized that even with the assistance of the system, he shouldn’t place such high expectations on humans or compare them to his golems, who were directly connected to him, at least the mages were still improving by constantly using the Earth Spear spell, even if they couldn’t perceive the subtle changes.

“If this continues, we’ll still be overwhelmed by a large horde of Goblin foot soldiers, and I can’t allow that to happen,” Alec muttered to himself.

He glanced at the remaining one hundred and thirty Tier 1 mages from his clan and used his inspect skill to identify twenty of t

    The goblins initially felt overwhelming fear as they witnessed the ease with which their teammates had fallen mysteriously, without even encountering the enemy. They had lost half of their numbers, which only added to their anxiety about the unknown. And their cowardly instincts urged them to flee the battlefield and join the others squad of goblins who seems to be engaged in seemingly more reasonable battles. However, as the horde of mages charging towards them came into view, their fear transformed into furious determination. At the front, one Goblin uttered something in a language Alec still couldn’t comprehend, Alec turned to Agnes, seeking clarification. “He said we are underestimating them,” Agnes translated. “He ordered his Goblin brethren to attack the 50 mages accompanying Brandon and eradicate their shame before retreating.” Chuckling to himself, Alec scoffed at the Goblin’s choice to speak in another language. “What a coward, let’s see how he will be able to

  • Auction 8.

    While many in the crowd were busy wondering why no bidding war had erupted over such a high-caliber Spirit equipment set, Alec only smiled, only the top clans and a few insightful mages in the audience had grasped what truly happened.Most of the clans hadn’t shown much interest in the Ivory Juggernaut Set simply because it lacked elemental affinity but was more biased towards Qi manipulation, making it a poor match for their mages. Alec had given a brief explanation to stir some enthusiasm, and while a few had indeed shown interest, they remained hesitant.The Aegisborn Patriarch, however, saw the armour as a perfect blessing, as its abilities seemed tailored to enhance his clan’s innate strengths, so when he noticed a few other Patriarchs preparing to bid, he acted swiftly, calling out a hundred Tier 6 bodies without hesitation. In truth, that was the full amount his clan had brought to the auction.His brother Orion had warned him not to allow too many parties to get swept up i

  • Auction 7.

    As Alec approached the stone pillar, he used his body to block the crowd’s view. Whispers and quiet conversations stirred as everyone waited for him to move aside, but Alec deliberately took his time. Eventually, he stepped away, revealing five pill bottles neatly arranged on top of the pillar, staring back at the eager crowd.“I’m glad to inform you all that we’ve reached the final round of today’s auction, and if you didn’t manage to acquire anything before the end of the auction, don’t worry there will be another opportunity in the next auction,” Alec said as he addressed the room once again. “I won’t bore you with talk about what’s to come, instead, let me introduce the final items of the night.”With that, Alec walked over to the spirit equipment set placed at the far right, the armour gleamed white with golden edges, seemingly lacking elemental affinity, but radiating a heavy flow of savage Qi. Alec ran his left hand along the smooth surface of the armour, which included

  • Auction 6.

    After the second round was won by the Lanzt clan, the previously bustling crowd fell silent again, waiting for the next big reveal.But Alec had already rolled out two rounds which were dominated by his own items, successfully building the excitement he had aimed for, now the crowd of mages was far too hooked to leave or get pissed if he brought out lesser items.At this point, Alec decided it was time to bring out the other items that didn’t belong to him, like the low-rank spirit armours crafted by the Gordons’ forgers who were still learning the art, although Alec didn’t want the Gordons mages using these armours themselves, it didn’t mean he thought they were useless, which was why he decided to auction them off on behalf of the mages who created them so they could at least get some joy seeing how sorted out their creation was.The way Alec structured it, they would collect magic crystals for these products, with the profits shared between the mages who forged them and the Gordon

    Which was equivalent to at least another ten bodies if they were counting in Tier 5 terms; and now the pills’ value had reached the equivalent of twenty Tier 5 bodies which is the original realm Alec had placed the bid.As the two men stared toward each other’s booth, trying to anticipate each other’s next move and act as cautiously as possible, Alec stood with his hands behind his back, neither announcing nor acknowledging their bids.Everyone was so pumped about his heated bidding battle that the both Booth were probably the only ones being stared at, the crowd found the bidding battle far more interesting than expected, many realizing they even enjoyed watching such power plays.‘Yes! Fight! Bid and spend all your corpses here, in the end, I’ll still be the biggest winner, no matter how much you believe I’m taking a loss,’ Alec thought as he watched them close to breaking down, though he kept a nonchalant face, deep down he was almost jumping for joy seeing how much the pills were

  • Auction 4.

    “For the second round, I’ve prepared a batch of various items to speed things up,” Alec began as he walked towards the stone pillar and pulled off the black cloth that had been covering the items. “I have here three different items for the second round, and as you can see, there are three bottles, each holding cultivation pills, the first bottle contains ten Tier 3 cultivation pills.” “The second bottle holds another ten Tier 4 cultivation pills, while the third bottle contains five Tier 5 cultivation pills, and these three bottles will not be sold separately but as a joint sale, and the starting bid is six Tier 5 bodies.” Alec finally concluded his introduction of the second item, which happened to be a bundled sale, after his statement about the contents of the three pill bottles, the entire auction house fell silent. The breaths of many inside hitched as they could hardly believe their eyes, all this while, when they wanted to cultivate, they had relied on power stones harveste

  • Auction 3.

    The second female mage who had moved backstage earlier now rolled out another table, this time two tables interlocked together to prevent them from separating, one of the tables was empty, while the other was covered in a dark cloth, immediately making many in the crowd realize that was the second item of the day hidden beneath it.As the female mages reached the center, she and the first lady who had remained on stage with Alec began transferring the newly purchased armour, won by the black-clothed man onto the empty table. Once they were done, they placed the new item on the new empty stone pillar.Afterward, the first lady rolled the armour offstage while the crowd waited eagerly for the unveiling of the second item.“Well, in this situation, I’ll go straight to the point and not keep you all in suspense,” Alec said as he started walking toward the stone pillar. However, despite his words, there were many in the crowd who didn’t believe him.Because as he was observing some peop

  • Auction 2.

    While those interested in the armour were prepared and waiting for Alec to declare the starting bid, the others, who had no intention of bidding couldn’t help letting their imaginations run wild. As they felt If the opening item was already of mid-tier caliber, what else could possibly be in store?, Many silently prayed that something matching their desires would appear next so they could make use of the corpses they had brought in their space rings.As murmurs of speculation filled the hall, Alec stood calmly, a knowing smile on his face as he observed their expressions. This was all part of his plan, starting strong with a high-tier item to set the tone, even if the next few items didn’t match the first in quality, the excitement would remain. As the crowd had already been made to believe that treasures awaited them, and that momentum alone would keep their spirits high, as the eagerly awaited what’s next.This was the power of first impressions, and Alec knew how to wield it

    Though Alec already had his suspicions about who was responsible for the probing, but he chose to act as if he hadn’t noticed anything at all.“Seeing how eager you all are to discover what we’ve prepared for you today, I won’t waste any more of your time, especially as you all are respectable figures, so allow me to first explain the one and only rule of the Gordons Auction House.” Alec began, his voice calm but firm.“No matter who you are or what position you hold outside these walls, once you step into this hall, you’ve accepted to be under our care, and with that comes our expectation of a little respect back from you, it’s quite simple, really.”“Our one rule is this: there will be no fighting inside the auction hall, if anyone believes themselves to be above reason, they are free to try gathering mana in a bid to attack, but just know, whatever happens after that, we won’t be held responsible.” Alec’s tone was firm, a quiet authority threading each word as he addressed the crow

  • D Day 2.

    Just as the crowd waited in eager anticipation for the auction to begin, a sudden flash of light burst across the stage, instantly drawing the attention of every guest, conversations fell silent as all eyes turned toward the source, and from the backstage, Alec emerged, flanked by two female mages at his side.He wore a regal-looking robe, deep brown with black trim, bearing the Gordons clan emblem boldly emblazoned on his back and a smaller crest over his left chest, though he’d clearly attempted to comb his hair back neatly, but a few stubborn strands still jutted out at the edges, adding an almost roguish charm to his appearance.Beside him stood two stunning female mages, dressed in elegant yet provocative outfits Alec had personally arranged for the event, their short skirts and stylish tops left little to the imagination, instantly catching the attention of several lustful onlookers. But these women weren’t just decoration, their job for the day was to assist Alec in presentin
