He held a cup of wine in one hand, completely embodying Jarek Solari’s arrogant, punch-worthy demeanor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Friend,\" Matthias said, his voice dropping to a dangerously low pitch. \"Did you not hear me? I said the Ashvele Clan urgently needs this item.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rhain threw his head back and let out a boisterous, mocking laugh.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Who the hell cares what you need?\" Rhain shouted, his voice dripping with absolute contempt. \"You think I’m afraid of an Ashvele Clan? I am Jarek Solari! If I want to buy this root just to feed it to my dog, I will do it!

Do we have a higher bid from Young Master Jarek?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every eye in the room shifted back to the Solari Clan VIP box, waiting for the madman to escalate it further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rhain paused, taking his time to lazily swirl his wine.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, a mocking smile stretched across his face\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Nah,\" Rhain shrugged dramatically, his voice dripping with condescension. \"If the Ashvele dogs are that desperate to overpay for a trash root, they can have it. I was just getting bored anyway.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Up in his balcony, Matthias stood with a stupified face as the realisation hit him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had just been effortlessly baited into paying nearly three times the actual value of the herb.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Five hundred thousand Aetherium Crystal going twice! Sold! To Elder Matthias of the Ashvele Clan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bang!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The golden gavel in Vanya’s hand struck the podium sharply.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Up in the Ashvele VIP box, Matthias stood with ashen face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blood drained from his face before violently rushing back, turning his skin a deep, furious crimson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had won the item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he had just been effortlessly humiliated and extorted in front of the entire Mirravele City elite.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Across the hall, in the Solari Clan’s balcony, a moment of stunned silence hung in the air before erupting into boisterous, uncontrollable laughter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Pwahahaha!\" The old Solari elder slapped his thigh, tears forming in the corners of his eyes. \"Amazing! Absolutely Amazing! Jarek, you brilliant bastard! I never expected you to use your brain to play them like that!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rhain simply leaned back into the velvet cushions, waving his wine cup lazily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Like I said,\" Rhain slurred, maintaining his arrogant, intoxicated facade. \"Just playing with dogs.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As the auction continued, the atmosphere in the grand hall completely shifted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every single time a member of the Ashvele Clan raised their paddle for an item, the obnoxious, slurred voice of \"Jarek Solari\" would immediately echo across the hall, ruthlessly jacking up the price.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Two hundred thousand!\" an Ashvele member would bid on a Rare-Grade artifact\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Three hundred thousand!\" Rhain would instantly counter, not even bothering to look at the item.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eventually, the Ashvele Clan caught on to his malicious tactics.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When a pristine Rare-Grade defensive armor set was brought out, Matthias sneered and intentionally bid the price up to four hundred thousand, before abruptly dropping out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He fully intended to trap the arrogant fool into ruining himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Let the brainless ape buy it,\" Matthias sneered to his furious clansmen. \"He will bleed his own clan’s funds dry before the finale!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But when Vanya announced Jarek as the winner, Rhain didn’t even blink.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With a casual flick of his wrist, a mountain of glowing Aetherium Crystals materialized from his spatial ring and floated directly down to the stage attendants.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He paid the astronomical sum instantly, without breaking a sweat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What the Ashvele Clan didn’t know was that Rhain’s wealth was simply incomprehensible.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Between the ten million Aetherium Crystals gifted by Harmon Vael, and the three million he had casually looted from the real Jarek’s spatial ring last night, Rhain possessed a staggering thirteen million liquid crystals.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His personal wealth easily dwarfed the treasuries of most Spirit Manifestation Realm experts in Mirravele City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To him, dropping a few hundred thousand crystals was like flicking away dust.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The auction dragged on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>While the Ashvele Clan occasionally succeeded in forcing Rhain to buy useless items, there were certain lots they simply could not afford to back down on.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When a batch of peak Rare-Grade medicinal pills—essential for nurturing their clan’s younger generation—came onto the block, Rhain mercilessly grabbed them by the throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He relentlessly pushed the bid into the stratosphere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eight hundred thousand!\" Rhain shouted, his heavy boots kicked up onto the balcony railing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Matthias’s hands gripped the edge of his balcony so hard the polished redwood splintered under his fingers.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Eight hundred and fifty thousand!\" Matthias roared, his eyes bloodshot with hatred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Rhain smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He didn’t bid again, casually letting them have it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>By the time the auction was nearing its end, the Ashvele Clan had successfully secured their desired items, but at a catastrophic cost.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They had hemorrhaged atleast four million of Aetherium Crystals, severely crippling the massive funds they had meticulously liquidated for the Epic-Grade finale.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Inside the Ashvele VIP box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Ashvele Clan memebers were fuming with rage, their auras violently fluctuating as they glared daggers at the Solari Clan’s VIP box.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ahhhhhh!
