"Ten million!"

At that moment, a voice came from Box Number Six, and the entire room fell silent! It seemed that this time, no one dared to bid anymore.

"Okay, ten million for the first time, ten million for the second time, and for the third time, deal!" the female staff member said.

The result was that the thousand-year-old Mystic Ice Grass actually fetched such a high price, which delighted the auctioneers present, as the price had far exceeded their expectations.

However, most of those who want to buy it may not be used for cultivation immediately, because although the Mystic Ice Grass is an ancient exotic species, it is not the kind of Octagonal Mysterious Ice Grass that has self-awareness and is 100,000 years old.

In that case, it would either become Soul Spirit, but this Mystic Ice Grass is something I want to take down and cultivate properly so that it can grow. So, at such a high price, this is the only option.

"Hmm, it was indeed snatched up by someone else," Wu Yang Jin said thoughtfully.

"This isn't a normal price either; most of them are bought and then nurtured," Wu Zhangkong said.

"I'll buy it another time when I have the chance. Actually, I'm not in a rush," Wu Yang Jin said.

However, although he wasn't in a hurry, he thought that if such Mystic Ice Grass cost ten million, how much would the Dragon Scale Fruit that Tang Wu Lin needed, especially a thousand-year-old Dragon Scale Fruit, cost?

Then, after our other auction items, came the Millennium Dragon Scale Fruit.

Ahem! According to legend, which is actually quite realistic, dragons are the most powerful Soul Beasts, and the Dragon Scale Fruit is just as its name suggests. In the long history of that time, after a giant dragon died, its blood nourished the earth.

This allows the spiritual fruit to grow by absorbing the essence of dragon blood, and as its name suggests, it has something resembling dragon scales, hence its name.

As for that legend, we don't know if it's true or not, but what is certain is that the Dragon Scale Fruit does require dragon blood to grow from the beginning, so it is naturally very difficult to cultivate artificially.

But... hahaha, the starting price...

"A starting bid of one million?! Why?!" Tang Wu Lin exclaimed.

Perhaps I'm still too young to understand the intricacies and language of this place. I just feel that the starting bids for the previous Mystic Ice Grass and other spiritual fruits were only a few hundred thousand! This Dragon Scale Fruit has become a million!

"Five million!" someone exclaimed.

This number made Tang Wu Lin's eyes light up, and he immediately felt terrible. Now there was no hope again.

"Six million!" Wu Yang Jin shouted this time.

"Yang Jin!" Tang Wu Lin said gratefully.

To be honest, I'm doing this for Tang Wu Lin. Otherwise, it wouldn't really concern me if it were someone else. Of course, if it's a matter of life and death, I'll still help out.

"It's alright, Wulin, we'll take a picture of it," Wu Yang Jin said.

But he had also thought about it. What did he think about? It was the sound and numbers that would completely numb Tang Wu Lin.

"Seven and a half million!" came a voice from Box Number Six.

"Ah, this..." Wu Yang Jin said.

"Alright, let's give up. If someone wants this Dragon Scale Fruit, they'll probably raise the price," Wu Zhangkong said.

Then, after the price of 7.5 million was paid once, twice, and three times, the Dragon Scale Fruit was bought by the person in Box Number Six.

After that, Tang Wu Lin lost interest in all the auction items. The only time he showed any interest was when the three parts of the Battle Armor came up, and he asked about them.

Afterwards, once the auction ended, Wu Zhangkong left with the two children.

"Wait a minute, we're waiting for someone," Wu Zhangkong said.

Just then, Tang Wu Lin suddenly raised an eyebrow, feeling as if he saw a familiar figure walking towards him.

"Ah, it's that number six!" Tang Wu Lin said with some resentment.

"Haha, Xiao Wu Lin, it seems you have quite a bit of resentment." Suddenly, a familiar voice came from behind Number Six's mask.

That's right, it's Hall Master Zhao.

"Alright, here's your Dragon Scale Fruit. Take it. Since you want it so much, it must be very useful," said Hall Master Zhao.

"Thank you, Hall Master Zhao!" Tang Wu Lin said, moved.

Then, he tremblingly accepted the box containing the Millennium Dragon Scale Fruit, holding it in his hands as if it were a precious treasure.

"Oh? So, brother, this must have been part of your plan, right?" Wu Yang Jin suddenly said.

"Yeah, so, Wulin, you seemed pretty unhappy just now, right? You were probably even blaming me, weren't you?" Wu Zhangkong suddenly said, sounding rather serious.

"Ah... hahaha, what a surprise, Teacher Wu," Tang Wu Lin said somewhat awkwardly.

At the same time, Hall Master Zhao gave another box and handed it to Wu Yang Jin.

"Hmm? Hall Master Zhao? Is this Mystic Ice Grass?" Wu Yang Jin asked after taking it.

"Yes, this was the first item I bought for you after Xiao Chang Kong mentioned wanting it. It will definitely be useful for your Martial Soul. Of course, you can keep it if you want, or absorb it if you wish," said Hall Master Zhao.

"Thank you, Hall Master Zhao, for your help! I'll give the money to my brother and have him give it to you," Wu Yang Jin said, bowing.

"Haha, you child, no need for the money, let Xiao Chang Kong send it over. But you and Wulin must remember to cultivate diligently in the future and repay the Tang Sect," said Hall Master Zhao.

"Okay, I understand," Wu Yang Jin replied.

Afterwards, amidst laughter and chatter, the group went back inside their room...

"Sister Snow Empress, Sister Ice Empress, this is for you," Wu Yang Jin said.

"Oh? Little Yang Jin gave this to us?" Snow Empress asked.

"Hmm? Why aren't you absorbing it yourself? Although you can nurture it, it's taking too long," Ice Empress said.

"Ah, because Ice Empress and Snow Empress have helped me a lot, haven't they? And although I don't quite know who the two sisters are, they were willing to become my Martial Soul and give me Soul Skill, for which I am very grateful. But I don't know how I can repay them," Wu Yang Jin said.

"I see. So, Xiao Yang Jin, you thought that this Mystic Ice Grass is beautiful and also has the ice attribute, so it's perfect as a gift for me and my sister Ice Empress, or as a flower to admire, right?" Snow Empress said.

"Yes! It's also to thank my two older sisters. When I first saw the Mystic Ice Grass and heard the name, I immediately thought of Sister Ice Empress, because they both have the character 'ice' in them. And coincidentally, I also think this Mystic Ice Grass is very beautiful and cute! Ah, I'm not saying that Sister Snow Empress is bad," Wu Yang Jin added.

"Hoo hoo, alright, little Yang Jin, there's no need to be nervous. But, little sister Ice Empress, aren't you going to say something?" Snow Empress asked.

At this moment, Ice Empress was completely stunned.
