Lottery Odds Increased! The Shock of Soul Power Pills!

"Ding. Since the system is configured this way, it means it's possible!"

Lin Shu was speechless.

The first increase cost ten thousand.

The second increase cost thirty thousand.

The third increase would cost ninety thousand.

Before the Ninth Grade odds even reach one hundred percent, won't I have drained the entire continent's wealth dry?

However, since the system was set up this way, Lin Shu had no choice.

To guarantee a minimum return,

Lin Shu directly said,

"System, increase the Ninth Grade lottery odds first!"

"Ding. How many times would the Host like to increase them? The first increase costs ten thousand Auction Points, the second costs thirty thousand Auction Points, the third costs ninety thousand Auction Points, and the fourth costs two hundred and seventy thousand Auction Points. Considering the Host currently possesses one hundred and eighty thousand Auction Points, they may be increased three times!"

"In that case, increase them three times, to a thirty-one percent chance for Ninth Grade!"

"Ding. The system needs to deduct one hundred and thirty thousand Auction Points. Confirm?"

"Yes!"

Lin Shu nodded inwardly.

"Ding. Increase successful. The Host's Ninth Grade lottery probability is now thirty-one percent. Out of ten draws, three Ninth Grade prizes are guaranteed. May the Host be blessed by the god of luck!"

Lin Shu no longer paid attention to the system and turned his gaze toward the auction hall.

At this moment,

the second auction item had begun bidding.

This second item was three Level 3 Soul Power Pills, bundled together for auction.

There was no helping it.

If they were auctioned one at a time, Lin Shu felt that would be making too much of a fuss.

Since these Soul Power Pills could be used repeatedly, it was better to auction them as a bundle.

If someone with thirty levels of Soul Power obtained these three Level 3 Soul Power Pills, they could directly gain nine levels of Soul Power in a single day and reach level thirty-nine.

This would test just how much the elders of each faction's family doted on their juniors.

After all, the earlier one broke through, the greater their potential, and the better their chances of becoming a Title Douluo in the future.

In terms of grade, these three Level 3 Soul Power Pills were certainly inferior to the previous Eighth Grade Golden Bell Shield soul tool.

But soul tools were ultimately dead and could not be improved.

The person consuming the pills, however, was alive. The earlier they took them, the greater their potential.

This was the temptation of becoming a Title Douluo.

Sure enough,

after Su Qian finished introducing the pills on the high platform, the entire auction venue instantly erupted into commotion.

"H-How is that possible?"

"It seems that no such pill has ever appeared on the continent before, has it?"

"More than that! Not to mention raising three levels of Soul Power at once, even pills that can raise one level at a time are extremely rare!"

"If any Alchemist on the continent mastered such a pill, it's hard to imagine how much wealth they could amass!"

"Though this pill is low-grade and can only be used by Soul Elders in their thirties, its potential is absolutely immeasurable. My daughter is sixteen and currently has twenty-nine levels of Soul Power. She should break through to level thirty in a few months. If she used this pill, wouldn't she become a level thirty-nine Soul Elder at sixteen, catching up to some of the continent's geniuses?"

Some powerful figures quickly realized the potential of these pills.

However,

the most shocked were the Alchemists who had come to the auction.

Alchemists were exceedingly rare on the continent. Though tens of thousands of people were participating in the auction hall,

there were only a handful of Alchemists.

At this moment, all their eyes burned with fervor.

If they could auction off these pills and study the formula or the refining method through them,

then they might become the richest Alchemist on the continent in one stroke.

After all, there were simply too many Soul Masters around level thirty on the continent. With these pills, those Soul Masters certainly would not hesitate to buy one.

"Start the bidding already! I can't wait to bid!"

"That's right! This young master lacks nothing, especially money. Hurry up and name the price—I'm taking these three Soul Power Pills!"

"As an Alchemist, this old man's lifelong wish is to refine all kinds of pills. I must auction these pills!"

On the auction stage, Su Qian also knew just how astonishing these pills were. Without hesitation, she directly announced,

"There are three pills in this bottle, and all three will be auctioned together. The starting price is fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins!"

This price was even higher than that of the Eighth Grade soul tool.

Yet at this moment, no one found it strange in the slightest.

Although they were only suitable for Soul Elders with Soul Power in their thirties, the significance behind them far surpassed the value of a soul tool whose potential had already been fixed.

The moment Su Qian announced the starting price, fierce bids instantly rang out across the auction hall.

"My Wang Family of Langya City bids fifty-two thousand!"

"Why is it your Wang Family again? If you can't afford it, don't shout so quickly!"

"This young master is the Young City Lord of Baba City. I bid sixty thousand!"

"Baba City is merely one of the most backward cities in the Land of Hundred Cities. My Qin Family of Green Leaf City bids eighty thousand!"

"One hundred thousand!"

"One hundred and ten thousand!"

"One hundred and twenty thousand!"

"...One hundred and fifty thousand!"

"This old man, Shangguan Xiu, bids two hundred thousand!"

In no time, the price had risen to one hundred and eighty thousand, already matching the final auction price of the previous Eighth Grade soul tool.

The identity of the bidder was even more astonishing.

Everyone instinctively looked over. Upon seeing him and recalling what he had just said, they were immediately shocked.

Shangguan Xiu.

One of the few foremost Alchemists in the Land of Barbarian Martial Hundred Cities.

He was a Pill Emperor capable of refining Seventh Grade pills.

Although he was seated in the auction hall, everyone understood that his status throughout the Savage Martial Land was no less than that of some Title Douluo.

In the eyes of many factions, he was even more important than a Title Douluo.

Shangguan Que, which Shangguan Xiu had founded, supplied more than thirty percent of all pills in the Land of Hundred Cities.

It could be said that, beneath the Langya Auction House, Stone Gate, and the Savage Martial Pavilion, it was the wealthiest faction.

"It's actually him—Pill Emperor Shangguan! Why is he sitting in the auction hall?"

"That's perfectly normal. The private rooms at the Langya Auction House have always only received Title Douluo or factions backed by Title Douluo!"

"Could it be that such a grand Pill Emperor cannot find even one Title Douluo willing to protect him?"

"Haha, then you don't know. Some Title Douluo are willing to offer protection, but seeing how wealthy Shangguan Que is, they all demand rather steep terms. And since Shangguan Xiu is one of the Land of Hundred Cities' foremost Alchemists, he is unwilling to compromise. Naturally, no Title Douluo is willing to protect him!"

"Still, don't underestimate Shangguan Que just because it has no Title Douluo overseeing it. Shangguan Que joined the Empire and is protected by the Empire, so even Title Douluo would not dare cause trouble at Shangguan Que!"

The appearance of a Pill Emperor instantly became the focus of everyone's discussion.

Whether in status, position, or wealth, no one present could compare to him.

Just then,

a voice came from one of the private rooms:

"Stone Gate is willing to bid two hundred and fifty thousand Gold Soul Coins!"

The moment those words were spoken, the auction venue fell silent...
