The damage of their greatest treasure had not only caused the Cooper family to lose the prosperity that it brought them, but it had also been a financial burden to them over the years, eventually leading to their near exit from the ancient martial world.

Despite Jeff's fame, which meant that he had likely earned billions over the years, he still couldn't repair the Invincible Piano.

At this moment, some of the sharper guests realized that it would take at least a billion, if not much more, to repair the Invincible Piano!

“How much money exactly is needed to repair it?" the old man asked again, echoing the thoughts of everyone in the room.

With a bitter smile on his face, Jeff replied, “A weaponry refiner in the seventh grade or higher could offer his help and the cost of repairing it should be around 1.5 billion."

One and a half billion? And on top of that, a weaponry refiner in the seventh grade or above would be needed?

That instantly Limited the pool of candidates to only weaponry refining masters. Masters in weaponry refining were extremely rare in the ancient martial world.

The old man who had been curious about the cost of repairing the Invincible Piano let out a deep sigh of regret.

He then sat back in his seat and averted his gaze from the stage.

Clearly, he and the family he represented had completely given up and would not be participating in the auction of the Invincible Piano.

Despair crept into Jeff's face.

He could tell that most of the guests present, including the old man, had lost interest in the Invincible Piano.

“Well... Let's begin the auction for the Invincible Piano.

The hostess cast a sympathetic glance at Jeff before hastily announcing the start of the auction.

A thundering silence enveloped the whole venue, with not a single person willing to make a bid,

Barbara stared at the Invincible Piano with a frown. Anyone with half a brain would know that it would be almost impossible to auction off an item that would cost so much to be restored, so why had Jeff decided to auction off this treasured family heirloom?

Barbara discreetly glanced over at Alena, who was perched on a few seats away from her. There were tears of sorrow in Alena's eyes.

Barbara's gaze was pulled down to the phone in Alena's hands, which Lit up for a moment.

The wallpaper on Alena‘s phone turned out to be a special photo.

In the photo, Alena was leaning against Jeff's shoulder with a bright smile on her face.

In her arms, she was holding a boy who looked about three or four years old.

But what was interesting was.

That child bore a resemblance to Jeff!

Several seconds passed.
