Equivalent Exchange Device

Ling Yun wore a faint, confident smile throughout.

After hearing the Soul Master's question, she spoke unhurriedly.

"Since our Starry Sky Auction House dares to put this Ultimate Fire Martial Spirit up for auction, we naturally possess a way for a Soul Master to absorb it without any risk."

"As for how it is attached and the origin of this Martial Spirit, those are all core secrets of our auction house. I hope everyone will understand."

Though this explanation seemed reasonable, it did not completely dispel the doubts in everyone's hearts.

Although Ling Yun had offered an explanation, most Soul Masters still harbored suspicions.

However, the excitement in their hearts had not diminished in the slightest.

If the Starry Sky Auction House truly could fulfill its promise and successfully attach this Martial Spirit to another Soul Master,

then this auction would undoubtedly be like a massive bomb, setting off towering waves across the entire Douluo Continent.

And the Starry Sky Auction House would undoubtedly find itself at the very center of this storm, bearing attention and impact from every side.

"Alright, the finale auction item of this auction—the Blazing Emperor Heavenly Dragon—will now officially begin."

"The starting bid is 100 Million Gold Soul Coins, and each increase must be no less than 10 Million Gold Soul Coins."

Ling Yun's voice rang out once more, breaking the brief silence.

Her words carried an unquestionable decisiveness as she directly announced the official start of the Martial Spirit's auction.

The Ultimate Fire Martial Spirit was unquestionably one of the most powerful Martial Spirits in the Douluo Continent's Martial Spirit system.

To everyone present, a starting price of 100 Million Gold Soul Coins was unbelievably low.

However, everyone understood that the final price of this Martial Spirit would depend entirely on the fierce competition between the other top powers of the Douluo Continent.

"100 Million Gold Soul Coins!"

Almost the instant Ling Yun finished speaking, Jing Hongchen raised his Auction Paddle high.

His eyes revealed a determination to claim it at all costs, and his entire body exuded the authority of one in a high position.

As a core figure of Mingde Hall, Jing Hongchen knew well how important a Martial Spirit containing Ultimate Fire was to them.

If they could obtain it, it would undoubtedly provide powerful support for Mingde Hall's future development. Therefore, he had to give it everything he had and secure this Martial Spirit.

"150 Million Gold Soul Coins!"

Immediately afterward, a confident voice came from the other side. It was Long Xiaoyao.

In truth, Long Xiaoyao had always longed to break through his current strength bottleneck and touch that legendary god-level realm.

Although his own strength had already reached the pinnacle of the Douluo Continent, he understood that his talent seemed to have reached its limit. Taking another step forward would be as difficult as ascending to heaven.

Yet this suddenly appearing Ultimate Fire Martial Spirit allowed him to see a glimmer of hope.

Perhaps he really could use the power of this Martial Spirit to raise his strength even further.

Therefore, no matter how he looked at it, Long Xiaoyao was unwilling to miss this rare opportunity.

"160 Million Gold Soul Coins!"

Elder Xuan also raised his Auction Paddle, refusing to be outdone.

As the competition grew increasingly fierce, Zhang Lexuan quietly rose to her feet and carefully headed toward the auction house exit.

To avoid affecting Shrek Academy's plan to compete for this Martial Spirit, she had to send news of the situation back to the academy as quickly as possible so it could make sufficient preparations.

"170 Million Gold Soul Coins!"

Just as Zhang Lexuan left, Xu Tianran of the Sun Moon Empire also joined this fierce competition.

Xu Tianran sat upright in his seat, his expression cold and stern, his eyes filled with an intense desire for power and strength.

Just like that, the various top powers were drawn into this fierce competition.

There were also some factions whose strength was slightly inferior, yet they still clung to a trace of hope.

If some unexpected situation arose during this fierce bidding war, perhaps they might get the chance to successfully obtain this Ultimate Martial Spirit.

Time quietly passed amid the tense atmosphere of the bidding. In only a few minutes, the price of this Ultimate Martial Spirit had already soared to 300 Million Gold Soul Coins.

"This..."

As Jing Hongchen watched the price continue to rise, a trace of worry gradually appeared on his face. His brows furrowed tightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of anxiety.

He had come in a hurry and had not prepared too many Gold Soul Coins.

Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, Jing Hongchen slightly raised his head and directly asked Ling Yun in front of him.

"I would like to ask, if we do not have enough Gold Soul Coins on us, can we exchange some precious items for a certain amount of Gold Soul Coin credit to participate in the upcoming competition?"

Just in case, Jing Hongchen had specifically brought several Ninth-Level Soul Tools and some Eighth-Level Soul Tools with him to this auction.

Every one of these Soul Tools was worth a fortune.

If these Soul Tools could truly be exchanged for Gold Soul Coins, then he would have greater confidence in the competition ahead.

After hearing Jing Hongchen's question, Ling Yun revealed a thoughtful expression.

Without hesitation, she sent a voice transmission to Jiang Li, who was seated on the fifth floor.

At that moment, Jiang Li was observing everything on the auction stage. After hearing Jing Hongchen's words, his heart stirred as well.

He then sank his consciousness into his mind, intending to ask the system for a solution.

The system's current lottery setting was: one draw for every 10 Million Gold Soul Coins.

If the system truly supported exchanging precious treasures for Gold Soul Coins, then not only would it solve the Starry Sky Auction House's immediate problem, it might also bring unexpected profits.

Before Jiang Li could even ask, the system's cold, mechanical voice suddenly rang out in his mind.

Detected that the host is currently facing a difficult situation. Therefore, a special Soul Tool is granted: Equivalent Exchange Device.

When Jiang Li heard the name of this special Soul Tool, a huge question mark instantly appeared in his eyes.

As far as he knew, Soul Tools generally had clear rank classifications.

But this Equivalent Exchange Device sounded so different. Could it be that it had no rank?

Just as Jiang Li was filled with doubt, detailed information regarding this special Soul Tool flooded into his mind like a tide.

Equivalent Exchange Device: No matter what is placed inside, it can be exchanged for Gold Soul Coins of corresponding value...

Jiang Li carefully read through the information, and the confusion on his face was gradually replaced by delight.

He nodded in satisfaction and silently sighed. It seemed that the system had perfectly resolved this troublesome problem.

Without wasting another moment, Jiang Li immediately told Ling Yun the name of the Equivalent Exchange Device and its detailed functions.
