The Auction Begins: This Water Can Actually Bring Enlightenment?

Upon entering the Auction Pavilion, everyone was stunned by the enormous hall.

It was like a Spatial Soul Tool, a self-contained space.

From the outside, judging by their senses, the Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion covered only about an acre.

Yet the space within was larger than two stadiums.

"Could the entire Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion be some kind of Soul Tool treasure as well?"

Bibi Dong's gaze sank into thought. That would explain how the Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion had appeared overnight.

But a Soul Tool possessing such an immense space was even more shocking to Bibi Dong.

At the center of the vast hall stood nine redwood pillars, each as thick as five people embracing it together.

Everyone qualified to attend the Auction Pavilion came from high society and could recognize the value of this redwood at a glance.

A single redwood pillar was worth over a million Gold Soul Coins.

What extravagance.

Snake Lance Douluo drew a sharp breath as he looked at the resplendent, spacious, and grand Auction Pavilion.

Its sheer grandeur surpassed even the Papal Palace by quite a bit.

The first three floors alone could probably accommodate over a thousand people.

So be it. The more mysterious and imposing this Auction Pavilion was, the more likely it was to produce good treasures. Otherwise, how could it have drawn so many powerful figures?

It was just that...

He had never expected that, with his wealth, he could only obtain a Blue Box.

Even the weakest Titled Douluo was still a Titled Douluo...

He did not dare imagine how many people on the entire Douluo Continent could enter a Purple Box under such rules.

As for the even more distinguished Gold Box, perhaps only someone like Your Excellency the Pope was qualified to enter one.

After entering the Auction Pavilion, the originally white Invitation Token in his hand changed color.

At the same time, a message entered his mind.

The boxes of the Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion were divided into five grades: white, green, blue, purple, and gold, from lowest to highest.

"Prince Xue Xing, you came as well."

Ning Fengzhi looked at the gray-haired man past middle age and asked.

"Sect Master Ning, it has been a long time."

Prince Xue Xing said indifferently, "I recently came to Spirit City to handle some matters and happened upon this Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion, so I came to take a look."

"Haha."

Ning Fengzhi laughed twice. "The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect is not far from Heaven Dou City. Prince Xue Xing is welcome to visit us anytime."

"Very well. I will certainly come trouble your sect another time."

After a pause, Prince Xue Xing asked, "Does your sect have any information regarding the background of this Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion?"

Cough, cough—

Ning Fengzhi coughed dryly a few times. "I am ashamed to say that even Fengzhi has never heard of or seen the Auction Pavilion Master's methods before."

"As for the Auction Pavilion's background, I know even less..."

A trace of gloom appeared in Prince Xue Xing's eyes. "Even Sect Master Ning cannot see through the strength of this Auction Pavilion's master..."

"And this Auction Pavilion has appeared within Spirit City. Could it be connected to Spirit Hall?"

"According to the intelligence Fengzhi has received, Spirit Hall is equally shocked by the sudden appearance of this Auction Pavilion. They do not know much more than we do."

Ning Fengzhi saw through Prince Xue Xing's concerns.

At present, the Two Great Empires possessed transcendent strength across the Douluo Continent. Yet in recent years, as Spirit Hall had grown ever more powerful,

the Two Great Empires had become increasingly uneasy.

Take the Soul Hunting Forest, for instance. Located within the Heaven Dou Empire, it was specifically meant to provide low-level Soul Masters with soul beasts for obtaining soul rings.

Although it nominally belonged to the Heaven Dou Empire, only those with permits issued by Spirit Hall could enter. Spirit Hall held the actual control.

This greatly angered the Heaven Dou Empire's royal family.

But in recent years, faced with the increasingly powerful Star Luo Empire, the Heaven Dou Empire had been under immense pressure.

They also did not wish to tear relations with Spirit Hall apart, so they could only swallow the loss in silence.

"It is good that it has nothing to do with Spirit Hall." Hearing Ning Fengzhi's explanation, Prince Xue Xing was relieved as well.

"How has Xue Ye's health been lately?"

"Alas, it is still the same." Prince Xue Xing sighed. "I do not know whether it is because my brother has been too busy with state affairs, laboring day and night."

"His health has worsened by the day. I came this time to try my luck and see whether this Auction Pavilion has any Miraculous Elixirs that can improve his constitution."

"Xue Ye is a fortunate man and will surely recover," Ning Fengzhi comforted him.

"How has Crown Prince Xue Qinghe been lately?" Prince Xue Xing suddenly asked without any apparent reason.

"His Highness the Crown Prince is diligent and eager to learn, with exceptional talent. His progress on the path of cultivation has been astonishing."

"That is good, that is good." Yet a faint, imperceptible chill flashed across Prince Xue Xing's relieved face.

Outside the Myriad Realms Auction Pavilion.

Tang San supported the despondent Yu Xiaogang.

"Master, Master, pull yourself together." Tang San comforted him. "No great scholar has had a smooth journey before becoming famous."

"You must believe in yourself. This is only temporary. With Master's knowledge, you will surely make a name for yourself in the future, uncover the true essence of Martial Souls, and become renowned across the Douluo Continent."

"Really?" Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San. "Xiao San, do you truly believe in Master?"

"I do."

"Master was able to determine my Twin Martial Souls based solely on my Soul Power Level."

"Wuwuwu..."

Tears streamed down Yu Xiaogang's aged face. "Xiao San, thank you. It is wonderful to have you."

"Teacher, then wait at the teahouse nearby for a while. I will go in and take a look."

"Go on."

"Xiao San, our Invitation Tokens are all blue. Why is yours purple?"

Dai Mubai looked at the token in his hand and asked in confusion.

"Yeah, Xiao San, are you some foolish son of a rich landlord who forgot to tell us?"

Tang San smiled awkwardly. "I do not know either."

"Dai Laoda, Xiao San, are we going to be separated?" Oscar asked.

"Honored guests, although your token grades differ, our Auction Pavilion believes in considerate service."

"As long as the owner of a box agrees, you may enter that person's box as well."

"In other words, as long as Tang San agrees, you can all enter the Purple Box together."

Daji explained with a smiling face.

"Thank you, Your Excellency."

Although Daji looked like a friendly older sister at the moment, and her professional smile made people feel at ease,

when they recalled the perfectly lined-up Peerless Dragon Snake in the Star Dou Great Forest, they were filled with reverence.

This was not someone they could afford to provoke.

The Purple Box on the second floor was very spacious. It had more than enough room for Tang San, Dai Mubai, and the other five.

As for why there were five of them?

Ning Rongrong had returned to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, while Xiao Wu refused to come to Spirit City no matter what.

The others did not force her.

"Dai Laoda, Xiao San, there's tea here." Ma Hongjun casually picked up a cup and drank it.

The tea, sweet as nectar, went down in one gulp and flowed all the way down his throat.

A lingering tea fragrance spread through his mouth.

A cool aura gradually spread throughout his body, and the burning sensation caused by his Martial Soul mutation vanished in an instant.
