Chapter 1396: One More Thing to Sell
Chapter 1396: One More Thing to Sell
The voice that just spoke belonged to the Speaker of the Taling Nexus, Louis Angeli.
After the Hymn disappeared, the Taling Nexus, like the Feg Nexus, adopted a parliamentary system.
However, unlike the Feg Nexus, the Taling Nexus operates under a multi-party upper and lower house system.
This is due to the excessive number of top-tier cultivators in the Taling Nexus.
The Feg Nexus has 8 Stellar Rank and 873 Planetary Rank cultivators, which a single parliament can manage.
The Taling Nexus, on the other hand, has 33 Stellar Rank and over 3,000 Planetary Rank cultivators!
Such a large number of powerful individuals far exceeds the capacity of a single parliament.
Imagine a parliament meeting with over 3,000 people, each with their own opinions. What a chaotic scene that would be!
Therefore, the Taling Nexus had to adopt a multi-party system, where various parties compete for seats in the parliament.
Two years ago, Louis Angeli, the owner of that voice, was elected Speaker through a vote, with a term of 100 years.
Moreover, Angeli's strength is at the peak of the Stellar Rank, making him the strongest in the Nexus.
Not just in the Nexus, but across the entire Holy Silver Federation, he is one of the top 100 superbeings.
With Angeli as Speaker, the residents of the Nexus feel secure.
It's also worth noting that Angeli has a passion for Aerial Ball, a sport that has been his hobby for thousands of years.
Almost every year, he seals his power and personally takes part in the game.
During the annual Aerial Ball championship, Angeli can always be seen on the field.
It's safe to say that the popularity of Aerial Ball in the Taling Nexus is largely due to Angeli's influence.
The stadium where Su Yu stands, the largest in the Nexus, is Angeli's private property and bears his name.
...
"Let's start the bidding," Angeli said with a smile.
As soon as he spoke, voices rang out from all around:
"I'll bid one trillion!"
"Eleven trillion!"
"Twelve trillion!"
"Thirteen trillion!"
Some of these voices were close, while others were far away.
Some were in the stadium, while others were in distant locations.
Without a doubt, all the bidders were Stellar Rank beings. At the trillion level, the resources far exceeded what Planetary Rank beings could afford.
Of course, Su Yu was an exception.
Despite the varying distances of the voices, it was clear that at least half of the Stellar Rank beings in the Nexus were paying attention to this auction.
Su Yu could sense at least a dozen extremely powerful auras.
"Four trillion!" Not long after the bidding began, Angeli's deep voice rang out again.
His words caused the other bidders to pause temporarily.
After all, Angeli had raised the bid so much. When everyone else had just reached thirteen trillion, Angeli jumped to four trillion. It was only natural for them to pause.
Seeing no one else bidding, Angeli smiled and said, "Everyone, keep bidding! I just wanted to speed things up. Otherwise, adding a trillion at a time would just waste time."
Hearing this, the other Stellar Rank beings found it reasonable.
"The Lyrin's Wings" were worth four trillion on the market. Adding a trillion at a time until reaching four trillion would indeed be a waste of time.
"Then... forty-one trillion."
"Forty-two trillion."
"Forty-three trillion."
The bidding continued.
"I'll bid fifty trillion!" A new, unfamiliar male voice cut in sharply.
It was the first time Su Yu had heard this voice.
Angeli, however, laughed. "Haha, Derrick, I knew you would bid. Who among us needs this more than you?"
Angeli turned to Ashley with a smile. "Alright, Ms. Ashley, you can start the countdown. I don't think anyone else will bid."
"Fine by me," Ashley shrugged indifferently.
Fifty trillion was a high price, a quarter above the market value.
At this price, Su Yu was already making a significant profit.
"Five."
"Four."
"Three."
"Two."
"One."
"Sold!"
"Congratulations, Lord Leman Derrick."
Ashley made a hand gesture, and "The Lyrin's Wings" transformed into a streak of light, flying out of the stadium.
The light streak ended at Leman Derrick's location.
Angeli clapped and laughed, "Haha, congratulations, Derrick. I also congratulate you, the two Feg natives. May Feg achieve a great victory in this war!"
...
From the start of the bidding to Ashley's throw of "The Lyrin's Wings," the entire process took only a few seconds.
Only after seeing the treasure fly away did the audience realize:
"Ah? That's it?"
"It was a bit fast, wasn't it?"
"A few trillion worth of item, I thought it would take some time, but it sold in seconds?"
"Maybe it's because the battle in Feg has started?
Perhaps the organizers planned to take their time, but with the battle ongoing, they had to wrap it up quickly."
...
Ashley also announced, "Due to the battle in Feg, we have to keep the ceremony as brief as possible... Since the item has been sold, the auction will end here."
"Alright, you two should head back quickly," Angeli smiled. "The fifty trillion will be credited to your account in five minutes. You can leave for the teleportation area now."
"Alright," Ashley said, preparing to leave with Su Yu.
However, at that moment, Su Yu, who had been silent the entire time, suddenly looked up and said, "Wait, everyone, I have one more thing to sell!"
