205: Take some garbage to tease him

In response, Chen Tianming merely smiled faintly, saying nothing else.

If it were other matters, he might have been vague.

But when it came to money and strength, he had never feared anyone.

The most crucial thing was to see if there were truly good items among these treasures today.

Just as Chen Tianming was pondering in his heart, someone not far away suddenly caught his attention.

In Chen Tianming's eyes, that person was glowing with a golden light.

"Name: Han Lei"

"Identity: Appraiser (Child of Destiny)"

"Strength: Foundation Establishment Stage, Early Level"

"Golden Finger: X-Ray Appraisal"

"Golden Finger Introduction: Can see through the internal quality of physical objects to distinguish authenticity."

X-ray vision?

Chen Tianming frowned slightly.

Recalling earlier outside, the person who offered advice seemed to be him.

"Meeting a Child of Destiny right after arriving, that's quite lucky."

Chen Tianming murmured.

Wan Yue also seemed to sense something.

Her gaze immediately fell on Han Lei.

"He is also a Cultivator."

In this regard, Wan Yue was more perceptive, discerning Han Lei's difference from his speech.

"Not just a Cultivator, but also an appraiser. He might have been the one who helped you outside earlier."

Wan Yue turned to look at Chen Tianming, a little surprised.

"Listening to your words, could it be that..."

Chen Tianming smiled, "It would be a pity not to utilize such a good ability."

Wan Yue seemed to understand something.

A hint of sympathy appeared in her eyes as she turned to look at Han Lei.

This person was truly unlucky.

He just happened to be targeted by Chen Tianming.

Now there was a good show to watch.

Just as Wan Yue was secretly sighing in her heart, the auction officially began.

The first treasure to be traded today was an uncarved stone.

The exposed part looked very ordinary.

But this stone was very large.

If it continued to be carved, it might yield something good.

But it might also result in a complete loss.

The scene immediately buzzed with discussion.

No one knew how to price this stone.

Chen Tianming turned to Wan Yue, "Have you found anything on this stone?"

"Yes."

Wan Yue's expression was serious, "I can feel that there's a spiritual energy hidden within it. It's either a cultivation item or something with spiritual energy attached."

Saying that, Wan Yue turned to Chen Tianming, "Regardless of which, it's useful to you."

Chen Tianming nodded.

Then he looked at Han Lei not far away.

His gaze was indeed attracted by this stone.

Perhaps he saw something with his golden finger.

Han Lei immediately picked up his bidding device and directly pressed a string of numbers.

"Mr. 66 bids 2 million!"

As soon as the price was announced, Han Lei was stunned.

His number was not 66.

Han Lei immediately looked around, searching for Mr. 66.

The next second, he saw Chen Tianming not far away.

Han Lei's previous bid was clearly suppressed by Chen Tianming.

Someone actually acted more ruthlessly than him?

Han Lei's face turned ashen.

But this stone was extremely valuable, and its internal quality was top-notch.

It would be too regrettable to let it go.

Han Lei quickly offered a new price.

"Mr. 56 bids 3 million."

"Mr. 66 bids 10 million!"

The host on stage was incredibly excited.

And the others in the audience were also discussing animatedly.

It was common for auction participants to target each other and inflate prices.

But no one had ever seen someone directly push a competitor to a dead end right from the start.

10 million for such a stone, and it wasn't even guaranteed to yield something good.

One wouldn't dare to do this without a solid financial background.

Chen Tianming's smile did not diminish.

His gaze also unconsciously fell on Han Lei.

He had said that there couldn't be anyone richer than him in this city.

If he set his sights on something, no one could possibly take it away from him.

At this moment, Han Lei's expression was already very grim.

This price definitely far exceeded his expectations.

Han Lei gritted his teeth and raised the price again.

"Mr. 66 bids 20 million."

But the result was the same.

Chen Tianming once again proved his strength.

If Han Lei had held a glimmer of hope before, upon hearing Chen Tianming's bid, he immediately gave up the idea.

This amount of money was not something he could afford.

Moreover, it already exceeded the value of the item itself.

The first item sold for so much money.

The scene immediately erupted in discussion.

But Chen Tianming did not hesitate.

When the staff delivered the form to him, Chen Tianming did not hesitate at all, quickly signing his name on it.

The first item was obtained so smoothly.

While feeling pleased, Chen Tianming did not forget to look at Han Lei.

As expected, a hint of resentment appeared in the other party's eyes as he looked at him.

Soon, the second treasure was brought onto the stage.

It was a jade porcelain vase.

As soon as it appeared, it amazed many people.

Even Chen Tianming couldn't help but take a few extra glances at the vase.

Meanwhile, Wan Yue kindly reminded him.

"Although the item is good, there's no spiritual energy inside."

Chen Tianming was not lacking in treasures.

After all, for someone of his status, any good item could be easily obtained.

Such a jade porcelain vase was merely aesthetically pleasing, but without spiritual energy, it was just an ornament to Chen Tianming.

Chen Tianming nodded gently.

He immediately lost his original interest in this item.

Suddenly, his gaze swept over Han Lei not far away.

After the first item was snatched by someone else, Han Lei's expression had visibly changed.

Looking at his eyes, he seemed to still have some thoughts about this jade porcelain vase.

Perhaps Chen Tianming's gaze was too obvious.

Or perhaps the other party wanted to see if Chen Tianming had any interest.

Their eyes met.

Han Lei's face immediately darkened.

While Chen Tianming secretly chuckled.

These two were not on the same level at all.

It would be truly easy to toy with him.

Suddenly, a hint of surprise flashed in Han Lei's eyes.

His eyes were fixed on the jade porcelain vase on the stage, unmoving.

Then a wicked smile curled his lips.

Chen Tianming frowned slightly.

Could it be that the quality of this jade porcelain vase was impure?

Or was there something wrong with the vase itself?

Otherwise, Han Lei would never have had that expression.

The distance was too far for Chen Tianming to see clearly.

However, there was no spiritual energy on it to begin with.

Chen Tianming wasn't interested in this item either.

But if he used this item to tease Han Lei, things would become much more interesting.

Soon the auction began.

Han Lei immediately bid 500,000.

Chen Tianming immediately raised the bid.

"Mr. 66 has offered a price of 800,000 again."

The staff on stage were excited.
