Born Almighty Warrior

Chapter 1170 Competition During The Auction

"Well, you are right. Maybe, I can marry you to pay you back," was Ricky's cheeky answer.

The teasing smile on his face widened when Edie scowled coldly. "Fuck off!"

he yelled before he left, and Ricky could only shrug helplessly, scratching his head with a crude grin.

Meanwhile, the Thousand-hand Emperor was a little surprised when he saw this, for he could tell that

Edie was not really angry at Ricky. He was astounded to see Edie bickering with someone, and Edie

seemed to care a lot about the white-haired man too. He had never seen anything like it before!

After all, Edie had never thought highly of any genius in this region.

'It seems that the so-called Kenney is not a simple person. He could not have drawn Edie's attention

only by killing Redmond, so there must be something special about him,'

the Thousand-hand Emperor thought to himself.

Meanwhile, Ricky and the two girls had entered the castle's hall where the auction would be held.

In the center of the hall was the auction platform, surrounded by rows of seats. At present, the hall was

already crowded with people, and most of the seats were occupied.

"It seems that we are late. Finding a seat will not be easy," Ricky murmured to the girls.

"There are a few private boxes upstairs, but I'm afraid they have all been booked by those big forces

already. I'm afraid the three of us can't make it," Tina answered, worriedly wringing her hands together.

At this time, a young manservant came up to Ricky and said in a soft voice, "Mister Kenney, ladies,

please follow me. Your box is ready."

"We have a private box?" Ricky blurted out, his eyes wide in surprise.

"Yes. Deacon Edie has arranged one for you three," answered the young manservant primly.

"I see. Please convey my thanks to him then,"

Ricky told the young man with a smile, gesturing for him to lead the way.

"Ricky, is it possible that Edie has a crush on you? I mean, why else would he arrange all these for

you?" Tina asked with amusement once they had entered the comfortable private box.

"Wha—what are you talking about? I'm not interested in men!" Ricky looked flustered for a second, as

he shook his head fervently.

Thankfully, the auctioneer interrupted them, as the auction was about to start. "We will be starting now,

so please settle down!"

The first items to be auctioned off were the items. These included the lower-grade Treasures from

Heaven and Earth, lower-grade Omnipotent Skills, and incomplete demi-sacred weapons.

And these items were usually bought by the warriors who were sitting on the seats outside.

It was not until more than half of the items had been sold that the better and rare items started to be

auctioned off.

"The next auction item is a Sage Level treasure, the Aquatic Fruit. I believe everyone knows its function

quite well, right?" the auctioneer said as he presented a transparent fruit to the awed audience.

He had not even finished speaking, but the entire hall seemed to have lost. An uproar immediately

exploded, as all the people present fixed their greedy eyes on the fruit.

The worst Aquatic Fruits were at the middle grade of Sage Level. Thus, they were very appealing for

every warrior below the Sage Level, especially for creatures that cultivated power with water element.

"Amelia, this fruit must be of great use to you, right? Let's buy it!" Ricky suddenly said, knowing that

Amelia also cultivated the water element.

"Forget it!" she answered shyly. She felt that it would be too much for Ricky, so she just shook her head

even though she did want the fruit.

Of course, the Aquatic Fruit was perfectly suitable for Amelia's Rainwater Mutant. However, she knew

well that the cultivation resources she had were not enough to buy it, especially with all the stronger

and richer forces around.

Since Ricky wanted the Chaotic Sword Intent Herb, she didn't want Ricky to spend his money to help

her get the fruit with his cultivation resources. On the contrary, she wanted to leave her cultivation

resources to him in case he needed them.

"Amelia, are you afraid that you don't have enough cultivation resources to buy it?" Tina asked with a

smile on her face.

"Ha-ha, don't worry! With our help, it will be easy for you to get it," Ricky said in a smiling voice.

"No way! Don't you want to buy the Chaotic Sword Intent Grass? I can't let you spend cultivation

resources on me when you might still need them later," she insisted, fervently shaking her head.

"Well, I said I was determined to get it, but I didn't say that I was going to get it through auction," Ricky

mysteriously answered. "Even if the three of us put together all our cultivation resources and multiply it

several times, it will still be impossible for us to win it over these big forces."

Indeed, Ricky was telling the truth, but Amelia could not help but wonder what he was planning to do.

She was completely confused now.

"Ten zones of King Level cultivation resources!"

"Eleven zones!"

"Twelve zones!"

The price of the Aquatic Fruit was skyrocketing, and most of the bids were offered by forces sitting in

the private boxes.

"Twenty zones of King Level cultivation resources!" Ricky opened his mouth for the first time.

"Master, it's the voice of the little bastard who killed Redmond. The woman by his side has the

Rainwater Mutant. They seem to be determined to get this fruit."

"Play with them, but do not exceed fifty zones of cultivation resources!" said Hutton. "When the last

item shows up for auction, maybe fifty zones of cultivation resources are what we need just in order to

win it at last.

A Sage Level fruit is not worth spending so many cultivation resources."

"Yes, master!" answered Fitch.

"Thirty zones of cultivation resources!" he then shouted.

Hearing Fitch's voice, all the other warriors present could guess what was going on. They were well-

aware of the ongoing grudge between Ricky and Fitch, so they decided to leave them be. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Thus, all the other forces stopped bidding.

It was not because they were afraid of the Flame Valley, but because thirty zones of cultivation

resources had already exceeded the value of the fruit. Moreover, their target was also the finale auction

item.

"It's Fitch!" Tina said.

"He just added ten zones of thirty resources abruptly. He seems to be playing with us," Ricky said with

a smile.

"Hey, you don't need to do this. Let's just give up!" Amelia said in an almost whiny voice, pulling at

Ricky's sleeve.

Thirty zones of cultivation resources were too much to pay for the Aquatic Fruit, and she felt really bad

about it.

Ricky comforted her with a smile, as he insisted, "Amelia, I will use my zones to help you refine this

fruit. Plus, you have the Rainwater Mutant, so its value will definitely exceed forty zones of cultivation

resources.

I won't give up now, so just set your heart at rest. If I raise the price once again, I'm sure that the Flame

Valley will give up."

With this said, he laid a comforting hand on Amelia's shoulder and went back to bidding.

"Thirty-nine and a half zones of cultivation resources!" Ricky shouted.

"A half?" Many warriors around were surprised to hear Ricky's new bid.

It was the first time that they heard such an absurd amount, for nobody ever bid in halves of cultivation

resources at an auction.

"That young man must be at his limit. Thirty-nine and a half zones of cultivation resources must be all

that he has," many warriors speculated. Most of them turned a judging eye at Ricky like he was some

poor kid who infiltrated the auction.

"Ricky, you are so smart as to offer the thirty-nine and a half zones of cultivation resources. In this way,

Fitch is very likely to think this bid is your limit, so he won't raise the price again, because winning the

Aquatic Fruit with so many cultivation resources is not worthwhile for them at all," Tina commented,

smiling.

"Even so, he also played tricks on us. After all, we would not have to spend so much if he didn't bid,"

answered Ricky. "And I will also keep this in mind.

I really hope that they could get the Chaotic Sword Intent Herb by auction. If they made it, then I could

have a way to take the grass from them."

As Ricky guessed, Fitch didn't bid again.

Since Ricky had offered half a zone of cultivation resources, Fitch believed that the bid had reached

Ricky's limit. If he raised the price again, he would be very likely to get the fruit, which meant that he

was playing a joke on himself.

He didn't want to take such a big risk.

Moreover, he was already very satisfied that he had made Ricky spend nearly forty zones of cultivation

resources. For him, his anger had been satiated.

In this way, the Sage Level Aquatic Fruit went to Ricky in the end.
