"Did you think you won't look dumb doing this? No, it'd just make you look even dumber! Hahaha...Huh?"

Sif suddenly stopped laughing when she saw it—the tiny sprout that lay in Frank's palm after thehale pearl shattered.

There was no doubting it... The sprout was growing inside the pearl!

And though it was small, it was crystalline like a perfect gem. Its very shape was the work of amaster craftsman, and the emerald luster was so bright that it hurt to stare at it for too long!Moreover, one could see the bright green sap flowing through the crystalline sprout and theabundant vigor it carried.

Even an idiot would be able to see that it was special.

"I-Isn't that a Hale Marrow? Isn't it just a legend?!" Tavis shrieked on top of his lungs after a briefmoment of shock, not caring about saving Sif's face just then.

The auction hall was left in an uproar right then.

"Hale Marrow? What is that?"

"Shit, it's the Hale Marrow! There's only a fractional chance it'd grow in mountains filled withspiritrons!”

"To think I'd set my eyes on one of Mother Nature's treasures while I'm alive! I can die happy!""Though it's just a rumor, I heard that it doesn't just promote longevity—it could also save you fromthe brink of death, and you'd feel so revitalized after that you could run marathons at full speed!""Shit, for real? That's just amazing!"

"Haven't you heard?! The chief of Cloudnine Sect himself ate one during his younger years. That'show he grew to be so strong..."

"For real?”

"Of course it's real! Who could grow a herb within a rock?!"

"It's a priceless treasure in the most genuine sense! What luck does the kid have?!"

"Buying a Hale Marrow for only 200 million? I would buy it for 20 billion if I had to!"

The auction hall was left in chaos soon enough. Everyone present was gaping at the tiny greensprout in Frank's hand, their greedy gazes almost piercing through it.

Some were even ready to call in their men and make a grab for it!

"H-How is that possible?" Sif murmured, dumbfounded.

She had never heard of the Hale Marrow. However, she more or less got the idea that the tinysprout in Frank's palm was a priceless treasure, given how impressed everyone else was. It was amarvel in itself, while her Hyperion Root was underdeveloped—no, even if it was fully mature, theHyperion Root still would not compare.

And worst of all, her own family sold it to the Leaf family for two hundred thousand!

It was a number that stung Sif even as her heart bled, and she started to feel faint and couldcollapse at any moment.

Her family had given off a priceless treasure to the Leaf family for nothing, only for Frank to take itfrom her as she watched!

And Sif had to mock them just minutes ago—everything she said was now working against her as aproverbial slap in the face!

Why?! Why did no one in the Lionheart family recognize such a treasure while Frank could?!
