Moreover, ancient warriors of the past were not so frail.
The Martial Masters of today are vastly inferior to those of ancient times, and the reason is quite simple: there is no support of Spiritual Energy in the secular world.
As a result, the inner organs that are cultivated cannot be tempered by Spiritual Energy, nor can they transform it into vigorous inner ‘Qi’, thus naturally, their strength declines.
So when they saw Mike Curtis still up there spouting a bunch of nonsense, some people could no longer hold back their impatience!
Even though they knew full well they couldn’t afford the bid, they just wanted to find out sooner who would end up with the Spirit Gathering Grass.
“Mr. Carter, stop dawdling!”
“Yeah, if the auction doesn’t start soon, the sun will rise!”
“Exactly, exactly… hurry up!”
At this moment, not just them, but even Oliver Walker couldn’t contain his excitement.
If he obtained the Spirit Gathering Grass, he would once again stand at the pinnacle!
He would no longer need to depend on that video of him killing Ichiro Wright with a single finger to deter the hyenas and tigers coveting the pyramid.
Moreover, that video would not last for long.
Based on his understanding of the Eastern Alliance, within no more than ten to fifteen days, they would inevitably begin various probes.
Once they discovered he did not have the strength to suppress them, they would certainly send experts with great fanfare to locate and destroy the chip research facility.
It’s no exaggeration to say that whether his power can return to its former peak state is now tightly bound to the pyramid’s destiny for the next thirty years.
This time, whether out of self-interest or duty, he must secure the Spirit Gathering Grass.
Neither Vivian Li nor Jessica Wright would be able to stop his determination.
In fact, in the entire venue, only they could be considered his competition.
As for the others?
They were just here to join in on the excitement!
“Look at these people, so impatient, it really is endearingly silly!”
Anthony Carter, sitting in the back with a mocking smile on his lips, thought everyone there was as good as dead.
Still dreaming of getting the Spirit Gathering Grass?
Each one should look at themselves first and see what they’re really capable of!
What a joke!
And what happens backstage, no one could know!
Instead, it was Mike Curtis standing on the auction stage, who gestured with his hand: “Quiet everyone!”
“Stay calm, being hasty won’t get you any hot tofu!”
But the more he said this, the more frenzied the crowd below became!
Especially Daniel, who had already suffered a loss at the hands of Vivian Li, was now even more eager to reclaim his dignity, standing up and shouting, “Hey, Mike Curtis, hurry it up, stop dawdling!”
“We want to inspect the goods, let’s see if you really have the Spirit Gathering Grass!”
He had always looked down on Mike Curtis because his strength was no worse than Curtis’s, and yet he was not the chairman of the Martial Arts Association.
It enraged him so much that he lost any interest in joining the association!
“Yes!”
“Bring out the Spirit Gathering Grass!”
“I really don’t understand, with Spirit Gathering Grass being so valuable, why you would auction it off!”
The voices of doubt from below were simply uncontrollable!
Even Oliver Walker was doubting whether Mike Curtis was bluffing.
Even if Carter Company truly wanted to create this trap, would they need to use a real piece of Spirit Gathering Grass?
Could it be that Carter Company was so confident there were no more experts left in the secular world?
That would be a huge mistake, wouldn’t it?
But considering the bizarre mindset of the ancient martial arts world, it wouldn’t be surprising if they did something incomprehensible to ordinary people!
Facing the many doubts, Mike Curtis smiled and clapped his hands: “A bona fide Spirit Gathering Grass is coming on stage now, everyone stay calm and keep your eyes peeled!”
“After all, if you miss it, you may not see such a rare Spirit Gathering Grass again in this lifetime!”
When the applause stopped, the venue instantly returned to silence!
Everyone widened their eyes in anticipation!
Their heartbeats were all accelerating!
