Chapter 123 - Here Of All Places?

(:¥^¥:)

Ghu Sota felt hurt. 

He said all that for the Grandmaster. But how did it seem as though the Grandmaster didn't care about his feelings at all?

The poor boy felt so aggrieved as though he were a child who had been discarded by their loved ones.

Of course, the Ghu and the Gias could easily guess that he was doing it for Dorian.

But those below had no clue and only looked at Dorian as though he were already a dead man.

Indeed. The rumours were true.

The young Ghu master gated the Tian boy to death.

From the rumours, they thought the Tain boy didn't care about the Ghu boy's blind hatred for him. But now, seeing the Tian boy go head to head against the Ghu boy after everything Ghu Sota said only showed that the duo were like fire and water, hating each other to the extreme.

Thinking in this manner, many didn't sympathize with the pauper at all.

And Tsi Kin who saw this, also decided to stop bidding too.

Hey. Ghu Sota had already called the shots. So he wouldn't be foolish enough to drag his family against a powerful force like the Ghus. 

He wasn't so stupid as the fool in the booth.

Everyone shook their heads subconsciously.

That is, who asked him to fight one of the giants in the city? If they wanted, they could make sure he disagreed without a trace by the end of the night. So what gives him the impetus to act so bold?

Tsk! Deserve it!

.

The other big 6, like the Bhos and the Hous, looked at the scene in confusion and contempt.

Jung Hou was very disappointed with Dorian's actions. He had a lot of respect for Dorian's father and only felt that such a son was unworthy of such an outstanding father.

"Too short-sighted. The boy didn't inherit any good qualities from his parents."

"Hmmm." Old Hou agreed while rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "Desperation can make or break a man. In the boy's case, it not only broke him but crushed his entire reasoning as well."

Chen Hou looked at the scene weirdly: "Father, brother, uncles... Why do I feel as though things aren't as simple as they look?" 

"Chen... What do you mean?"

"Father... Look at the Ghus. None of them seem to be annoyed or angered. It could be that they didn't take the Tian boy seriously, acting as though he were a spec of dust and not worth their time. But if that's the case, why does the Ghu boy keep looking at him in an aggrieved way? It's okay for the Tian group to observe the Tian boy. But for others to do so makes me curious as well. From the beginning of the event till now, have you all not noticed that the Ghus and even the Gias seem to be paying too much attention to the boy? Even The Sus seem to be doing the same."

Everyone listened to Chen Hou thoughtfully.

Now that Chen Hou pointed some things out, they observed the scene more and found it weird.

Ghu Sota's expression didn't seem fake. So could it be that the rumours about the duo were wrong? Why did it look as though he highly respected the Tian boy instead?

Jung Hou was slightly taken aback as well. Could it be that he had judged the Tain boy wrongly?

Of course, whatever their thoughts were, it could all be wrong. So they would still stay away from this Tian boy, lest their original thoughts about his short-sightedness turned out to be true.

.

Within the room, everyone had their thoughts on the matter.

But what did that have to do with Dorian?

Most suddenly found his leg sweating after staring at Dorian's booth in a daze. It was as though something would kill him if he dragged this for long.

"55 million going once! Going twice! Sold! Sold! Sold to Young master Tian."

Phew. 

He didn't even give anyone the chance to speak or bid on this piece of land again.

And Dorian who finally emerged victoriously, casually leaned back into his seat as though it had nothing to do with him.

But the system, on the other hand, was suddenly proud and gleeful for their success.

[Hahahahaha! Host! Host! You did it! You finally purchased the Academy using your OWN money earned! I knew it! I knew you could do it, host.]

(^0^)

You know, when that annoying guy started bidding against its host, the system honestly felt that its host would rather give up the bid than continue bantering back and forth with the guy.

At that moment, the system was more panicked about failing its master above.

After all, its host had a low tolerance for things like this. So it didn't know what else the host would've done. 

In truth, Dorian would've passed the matter to Butler Sheng or someone else than continue bantering with such a noisy person.

Luckily, Ghu Sota stepped in to save the day. Now, they could finally set up the Academy and begin recruiting exorcists!

This was the real beginning of his Ultimate mission!

.

Dorian sat back in silence, observing the scene below. 

In particular, he was looking at a certain guard playfully. 

The guard wore a blue hat, blue shirt, black pants and stood along the sides, with the rest of the guards. 

He looked like any other regular person just doing his everyday job.

But to Dorian, if he could show everyone what he saw... Then some would most likely faint from it alone.

[Sheng! Raulin! Zhulyn!... It looks like we have company.]

What? Here of all places?!

Everyone's eyes dilated dangerously.

And while they were hearing up with vigilance, Dorian quickly scanned the entire scene with his head in a fixed position but his eyes moving madly.

Until finally, his expression went from nothingness to grim.

This was bad.

If its shadow isn't here? Then where is it?
