Thirty Titled Douluo! Everyone Was Shocked!

Thirty Titled Douluo! Everyone Was Shocked!

As everyone watched the thirty figures appear in the Langya Auction House's auction hall, their pupils contracted.

Each of those thirty figures radiated an astonishingly powerful aura.

Most terrifying of all, all manner of strange Martial Souls manifested behind them, each bearing a full nine soul rings.

"Nine soul rings... Those are Titled Douluo!"

"Gasp, all thirty of them are Titled Douluo!"

"Thirty Titled Douluo! The Langya Auction House has hidden itself far too deeply!"

"Just what faction do these Titled Douluo come from? This is simply too terrifying!"

"On the Soul Master Continent, there can't be many races or factions with so many Titled Douluo, can there?"

"More than that! With thirty Titled Douluo, their strength would at least place them among the Lower Seven Sects. If they were a soul beast race, they would rank among the top thirty!"

"Ever since Her Majesty Empress Yao founded the Yaoquan Empire, nearly all Titled Douluo have been recorded. So why have these thirty Titled Douluo never been seen before?"

"Exactly. The five Titled Douluo from the Langya Auction House not being recorded before was still understandable. After all, the continent is vast, and some experts never show themselves to the world. But with these thirty added in, that makes a full thirty-five Titled Douluo, doesn't it? Such a huge number, yet there has never been the slightest trace of them in the world. This..."

Both the auction hall and the thirty VIP rooms were plunged into shock.

Everyone qualified to enter a VIP room was either a Titled Douluo themselves or had a Titled Douluo backing them.

They all came from the Land of Hundred Cities or the Eastern Martial Region, and were either true top experts or members of top factions from those places.

Their horizons were far broader than those of ordinary martial artists.

Even so, they still could not identify those thirty... no, with the original five included, a full thirty-five Titled Douluo. Even with their knowledge, they had never seen any of them before.

At that moment, every guest in the thirty VIP rooms was immersed in disbelief.

Of course.

It was not only the guests who had come for the auction. Even the people of the Langya Auction House were shocked beyond measure.

The Auction House personnel who had survived the chaos fell silent as they looked at the thirty Titled Douluo standing there with nine soul rings raised behind them.

They still remembered that not long ago, Guild Master Lin Shu had been at a disadvantage when facing the pressure of the First Elder and Second Elder.

Who could have imagined that in such a short time, the Guild Master had gathered such a terrifying force from who knew where?

These thirty, combined with the previous five and the one surviving Guardian Elder of the Auction House itself, made a total of thirty-six Titled Douluo.

Even Langya Hall, one of the continent's Lower Seven Sects, did not possess such strength!

They knew full well that among the previous five Titled Douluo, one had been a Peerless Douluo, while the rest had all been Super Douluo.

With this, Langya Hall, once the superior sect of the Langya Auction House, had become exceedingly insignificant in comparison.

According to the Empire's records, when Langya Hall entered the Lower Seven Sects, it ranked eighteenth among the continent's sects and could be considered among the top three of the Lower Seven Sects.

It seemed to have only a dozen or so Titled Douluo, with its strongest expert merely a level ninety-seven Super Douluo.

Compared to that, the Langya Auction House had thirty-six Titled Douluo, with a Peerless Douluo as its strongest.

Such strength would be more than enough to place it among the Upper Seven Sects.

Even among the continent's Upper Seven Sects, there were only a handful that possessed such strength.

They could not help wondering where the Guild Master had obtained such a terrifying force.

Such power could not have appeared out of thin air, yet there had not been the slightest rumor of it on the continent. It was truly inconceivable.

As the Chief Auctioneer, Su Qian had originally believed that those five Titled Douluo were the Langya Auction House's limit.

Yet now, her understanding had been shattered once again.

Thirty Titled Douluo did not surprise her.

What surprised her was that she had never even heard of a single one of them.

Even if her sister's records of all Human Race Titled Douluo contained many omissions, there was no way they could have missed such a massive group.

For any faction, hiding one or two, or even three or four Titled Douluo to conceal their strength was perfectly normal.

"What faction is really behind the Langya Auction House?"

"The Human Race cannot possibly have so many mysterious Titled Douluo who have never appeared in the world!"

"Could it be that they are not humans at all, but a soul beast race?"

Su Qian was startled by her own speculation.

Humans and soul beasts had been in constant conflict since ancient times. They were mortal enemies.

The Empire could keep records of Human Race Titled Douluo, but it could not track the soul beast race.

Some soul beasts cultivated in their ancestral lands and did not enter the human world for centuries, or even millennia. It was possible for them to remain unknown.

The Human Race had the Yaoquan Empire, while the soul beast race had the Myriad Beast Tomb, a sacred land of the soul beast race that no human had ever set foot in throughout countless ages.

If they had come from there, it was entirely possible that they had never appeared in the world and remained unknown.

However, whether one was a soul beast or not was something a Titled Douluo could see through at a glance, even if they had taken human form.

Su Qian knew her own strength and could not see through transformed soul beasts.

But true Titled Douluo had come to the VIP rooms of the Langya Auction House. There was no way they would not know.

Yet there was no unusual reaction from the VIP rooms, which clearly meant these were not soul beasts, but genuine humans.

"How... How is this possible?!"

The thought of such a terrifying faction existing beyond the Empire's control sent chills down her spine.

However, she no longer had time to dwell on it. The auction was about to begin.

She could only wait until after she hosted the auction and then find an opportunity to see whether she could get some information from the Guild Master.

Su Qian slowly walked onto the auction stage.

With thirty Titled Douluo there to deter everyone, no one dared make a sound.

Standing on the auction stage and looking at the auction venue, which had fallen silent in an instant, Su Qian slowly began to speak.

"Welcome, everyone, to the Langya Auction House auction!"

"Before the auction begins, as the Chief Auctioneer, I will briefly explain the auction rules!"

"This auction accepts only Gold Soul Coins and Soul Crystals. Bartering is not permitted!"

"Second, the highest bidder wins. Within the auction venue, experts and major factions may not threaten others. If any expert or major faction is found secretly coercing others for the sake of an auction item, they will be permanently blacklisted by the Langya Auction House. In serious cases, they will be put to death!"

"For this auction, the Langya Auction House has prepared five precious auction items for you all, adhering to the principle of quality over quantity. We hope you will like them!"

"Now, the auction officially begins!"

As her words fell.

An Auction House maid slowly walked onto the auction stage carrying the first auction item, stopping beside Su Qian.

At that moment.

Everyone in the auction hall and the VIP rooms looked toward the first auction item, which was covered by a special sealed veil, eagerly anticipating what sort of item could warrant such an enormous display.

Finally.

Su Qian lifted the veil.

The first auction item was revealed before everyone's eyes...
