Hearing this, the complacent Clyde Thompson couldn’t help but freeze, and a cold expression appeared on his face.
He then said solemnly, “Kid, this is Sanders’ Trading Conference, protected by the Sanders family. It is not a place for people like you to act recklessly. Bragging in front of me will cost you blood!”
“Oh?”
Hearing this, Leo Ray looked directly into the opponent’s brown eyes filled with maliciousness and calmly said, “If I have not spoken too highly of myself and need to pay the price in blood, then it should be you who’s going to pay, right?”
“Ridiculous! Let’s see if you’re even capable of it!”
After speaking, the murderous intent on Clyde’s face grew thicker as he continued coldly, “If you can’t do it, don’t blame me for being ruthless.”
“Kelsey, check how many auction items both we and the other party have collected, and how big the gap is. Include everyone present in the count.”
On the opposite side, Leo Ray naturally wouldn’t waste more words with this young noble in front of him and immediately spoke to the red-clothed woman beside him.
“Alright, okay.”
On the other side, Kelsey subconsciously nodded, immediately taking a team of guards and began to act according to Leo Ray’s instructions.
“Kid, you have quite the big mouth. Seems like you’re ready to be dealt with by me.”
Listenting to Leo Ray’s calm tone, although Clyde still appeared tough on the surface, he couldn’t help but feel a bit doubtful and uneasy inside.
From the words and actions of the young man before him,
it was evident that he had not taken Clyde, a noble of high status, seriously, let alone the fact that he was a direct member of the Sanders family. “Could it be that the other party is also a well-hidden noble?” At this moment, Clyde’s brown eyes swirled as he quickly dismissed this answer.
“No, it’s impossible. Our family has good private relations with all the influential nobles in the surrounding cities. The core members of each family are also very familiar with each other, but there’s no trace of this unfamiliar guy.”
Realizing this, Clyde’s doubtful mood eased a bit as he continued to ponder, “Moreover, if the other party really had some background,
they wouldn’t recklessly oppose the direct line of the powerful Sanders family and instead help the weaker branch members. This just doesn’t make sense.
The other party couldn’t possibly have the strength and capital to contend with the entire Sanders family, right?”
Upon thinking this, Clyde immediately eliminated this absurd idea from his mind and couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief.
Leaving aside the low-status branch members, the Sanders family’s direct line alone,
including the Grand Duke Harrison Shelton, had several Tier 4 Powerhouses and dozens of Tier 3 Powerhouses.
As for their family fief Lionheart City, there were even tens of thousands of soldiers stationed there.
With this kind of power, unless it was the Coldflame Royal Family or the noble families of other kingdoms, it certainly wasn’t something other forces could surpass.
While Clyde was silently contemplating, the other onlookers also couldn’t help but exchange glances.
Leo Ray’s indifferent actions also gave them an incredible idea:
That is, the sudden appearance of the young man nearby was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface!
At a time when many people in the audience were experiencing waves of emotions within,
Kelsey, whose eyebrows were knitted together, had already finished counting with the help of the guards and spoke to Leo Ray dejectedly, “There are 59 in total, which means, we have to present 60 items in order to surpass them.” “Heh, so the gap is already this big.”
Hearing the number from Kelsey’s mouth, the slightly pale expression on Clyde’s face immediately returned to its previous arrogance, acting as if he had already won.
Undoubtedly, such a quantity would not be easily achievable even for those large noble families they were familiar with in the surrounding cities.
With this thought, Clyde snorted disdainfully and sneered at Leo Ray, “What now, kid? Can you really produce 60 Tier 1 Magic Medicines or Tier 2 Exquisite Equipment on the spot?”
“Unfortunately, I really can’t.”
On the other side, Leo Ray shook his head helplessly, looking troubled.
“Haha, as I thought, you’re just bluffing!”
Hearing this, the smile on Clyde’s face became thicker.
Immediately after, he addressed the onlooking crowd, “Everyone, you heard it, right? In the end, this kid is nothing more than a clown trying to gain attention that Kelsey found!”
For a moment, a large number of mocking and ridiculing voices echoed throughout the luxurious hall.
“I knew it! How could someone with such great power just appear so easily in front of us!”
“Exactly, I really thought we had met a big figure at first. Turns out it was just a bluff! ”
“So many expensive items can’t just be pulled out of thin air! My family’s three generations of knights only managed to pass down a single Tier 2 Knight Sword!”
“My ancestor was a Tier 1 Alchemist, and he only left behind two precious Tier 1 Magic Medicines!”
“Sigh, I’m afraid this young man is really going to suffer now. Why would he provoke Clyde of all people?”
“It seems that the Sanders family’s branch is really going to decline, tsk tsk.”
Among them, especially those followers behind Clyde, all looked extremely pleased with themselves.
While mocking their opponents, they also took the opportunity to flatter Clyde. “Can we stop embarrassing ourselves here?”
Seeing this scene, Kelsey’s pretty face was a mixture of embarrassment and annoyance as she whispered softly, “I told you to listen, but you wouldn’t. Now isn’t this just asking for trouble… ”
However, Kelsey’s words were left unfinished.
On the other side, Leo Ray still maintained his calm demeanor.
As he paced toward the registration counter nearby, he smiled indifferently, “Everyone, what I meant was that the ‘exquisite items’ mentioned by the young master here are just too low-level.”
The next second, before the people in the audience could even react to what Leo Ray had said, he gave a casual wave of his hand.
In an instant, a huge pile of equipment sparkling with various colors and numerous dense Magic Medicines filled the entire counter.
Witnessing this unbelievable scene, the large and luxurious hall fell silent, with the previous mocking and ridiculing sounds dying down.
As for those direct followers who had been cheering the loudest earlier and Clyde, dressed in luxurious clothes,
they all looked like choking orioles with red faces, their lingering. A trace of arrogance immediately turned into unbearable shock, almost suffocating..
