It's a threat, plain and simple.
If the current rental agreement is a good business arrangement, then the auction should have no influence on that. The fact that he links the auction to the current rental shows clearly that it's NOT just business. He thinks he can push you out of the way before the auction evens starts. No good business man would risk losing the auction AND losing a good tenant.
Again, as a test reverse the positions - tell him that you won't rent from him again if he bids against you - see if he thinks you're just showing good business sense and that you're doing him a favor. I'm betting that he'd see not see it that way that he'd clearly see that as the threat it is, and probably react accordingly.
Now if he had said that he intended to buy that land, and that he had pretty deep pockets and figured that you bidding against him would just result in him having to pay a higher price, so please don't bother, I'd see that little different. But linking the result of two different business deals together is NOT good business, it's a threat.

A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
