Chapter 296: 295
Tianbei University, on the sports field.
The place was densely packed with people, numbering at least five to six thousand.
All the noble offspring sat furiously on small stools, wishing they could tear Wang Hao into pieces.
They were all people of prestigious status, yet Wang Hao not only made them attend the auction outdoors but also made them sit on small stools, which was utterly infuriating.
However, the wealthy tycoons were much calmer; after all, they had seen simple dishes at the previous auction, so sitting on small stools now was really nothing.
At this moment, Qian Wanyang stepped onto the temporary auction stage in front.
“Everyone here knows why they are here, so I won’t beat around the bush,” said Qian Wanyang softly. “Let me introduce to everyone, the Major General starting at a low price of 100 billion interstellar coins, with one thousand positions for sale; Vice Admiral starting at a low price of 300 billion interstellar coins, with one hundred positions for sale; General starting at a low price of 1000 billion interstellar coins, with only seven positions for sale.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the entire place instantly boiled over, especially those noble offspring who began leading the charge in creating trouble.
“For God’s sake, has Wang Hao lost his mind wanting money like this!?”
“A Major General starting at 100 billion, he might as well go rob someone!”
“We won’t bid at all, let this place cool down, and see if Wang Hao still has the face to continue.”
“Exactly, whoever dares to bid today, I will kill him!”
“Right, anyone who bids is picking a fight with us noble offspring.”
“…”
Hearing this, the wealthy tycoons, though visibly angry, really didn’t dare to speak out, as they were businessmen after all and couldn’t fight against these official noble offspring.
Wang Hao sat below, silently watching the scene unfold, particularly staring at a blond-haired young man.
It was this blond-haired young man who had led the noble offspring to such fury just a moment ago, which meant that he was the leader among this group of noble offspring.
Beside him, Chen Yao whispered, “Boss, this guy is from the Guan family, heard he’s one of Guan Xinxiong’s grandsons, named Guan Shi.”
Wang Hao’s lips curled into a chilly smile, “Turns out he’s that old bastard Guan Xinxiong’s grandson, what a small world!”
Chen Yao gave Guan Shi a sympathetic look, knowing being targeted by Wang Hao meant this kid would likely have a rough future, so he might as well offer his condolences in advance for three minutes!
At that moment, Wang Hao snapped his fingers towards Shi Xiong and Mu Xin who were not far behind.
Immediately, around twenty young men stood up and began cursing at Guan Shi and the group of noble offspring.
“Damn it, who do you think you are!?”
“A bunch of poor losers, if you have no money then don’t babble here.”
“I’m buying today, what can you do about it!”
“I’m standing right here, come and try to chop me if you can!”
“Noble offspring, ha, I despise nobles the most!”
“Exactly, a bunch of trash, no money and still babbling here!”
“…”
Hearing this, Guan Shi and the others erupted into complete anger; the idea that a group of commoners could insult them like this was intolerable!
Therefore, thousands of noble offspring burst out in anger, their True Qi filling the sports field and even stirring the clouds in the sky, signaling a battle was on the brink of breaking out.
Seeing this, the tycoons in attendance were frightened and began backing away.
“What’s going on!?”
“Who knows, do any of you recognize these young men!?”
“I don’t recognize any of them, but their cultivation has all reached the Martial King level.”
“It seems they are all under twenty, yet their cultivation is that of Martial Kings, something’s off here!”
“Could they be underlings trained by that major power!?”
“Who cares who they are, daring to confront these noble scions, they must be no ordinary folk.”
“We better just watch the drama unfold!”
“Agreed!”
“…”
At this moment, Qian Wanyang clapped his hands and loudly said, “Everyone quiet down, if anyone dares to start a fight during the auction, their bidding rights will be revoked.”
As soon as his words fell, a thousand noble scions could only angrily suppress their True Qi.
“Just you wait!” Guan Shi coldly snorted, “After the auction is over, I’ll tear you all apart!”
Shi Xiong and Mu Xin just smirked, obviously not taking Guan Shi and his noble companions seriously.
“Ahem!” Qian Wanyang coughed, “Now, we will start the auction for a Major General rank, starting at 100 billion interstellar coins!”
“I bid 200 billion!” Shi Xiong raised his hand, all the while giving Guan Shi a provocative look.
As soon as his words dropped, everyone in the room stared at Shi Xiong, dumbstruck by his doubling of the opening bid, wondering if that was really a good idea.
Guan Shi, furious, turned an ashen hue and raised his hand, “I bid 250 billion!”
Shi Xiong responded with a scornful middle finger, “400 billion.”
Upon hearing this, Guan Shi became even more furious, his True Qi pulsating around him, distorting the air.
“Mr. Guan, calm down, today is not like other days, if something goes wrong, it won’t be easy to explain to the Grand Commander.” Someone at his side quickly pulled him back, pleading earnestly.
Guan Shi shuddered vigorously, his own grandfather Guan Xinxiong might forgive him, but failing the mission he was assigned would definitely result in severe family punishment. Even if he survived, he would not do so unscathed.
Seeing this, Wang Hao sneered contemptuously, “Guan Xinxiong really is boring, sending such a useless person.”
Chen Yao whispered, “Boss, you just don’t understand, although these nobles have many family members, few are truly capable. In order to maintain control of the Military Department, these capable ones are all in significant positions there and simply don’t have the time to deal with us.”
Wang Hao nodded slightly, his expression growing solemn, “The Military Department has always been controlled by the nobles because they know how to leverage their own people, employing those who are capable. As for these prodigal sons, they resolutely avoid using them. This opponent is not simple!”
“Boss, are you really planning to take action against the Military Department!?” Chen Yao couldn’t help asking.
Wang Hao merely smiled and did not answer. Ever since he had taken over the unfortunate soul’s body, he was destined to become enemies with the Royal College, and the Military Department, being the backer of the Royal College, was naturally his enemy too.
Therefore, whether for the unfortunate soul or for Sin Points, he needed to thoroughly shake up the Military Department.
If anyone dared to stop him, then let chaos reign due to him, let war rage because of him, and let the world tremble because of him. @@novelbin@@
Before long, military ranks were auctioned off one by one, without exception, all snapped up by the noble scions.
While the wealthy tycoons could only shake their heads and sigh, not that they didn’t want to buy, but their pockets simply couldn’t compete with these nobles.
After all, these noble scions were backed by the Military Department, a match they couldn’t win.
Moreover, with Shi Xiong, Mu Xin, among others arbitrarily jacking up the prices, it caused the prices to inexplicably increase several times.
This left the noble scions not jubilant after obtaining the military ranks, but instead glaring angrily at Shi Xiong, Mu Xin, and the others.
“Boss, after this money is credited, are you planning to use it for the training of those ten thousand ace soldiers?” Chen Yao asked curiously.
Wang Hao shook his head, smiling, “I’m planning to buy a big shot.”
“A big shot!?” Chen Yao looked puzzled…
What do you think?
