At the Starry Sky Auction House, Jiang Li revealed that the Bloodstained White Cloth held ten-thousand-year-old blood that could grant God-level Combat Power. Huo Yuhao learned from Electrolux that the blood came from a powerful evil being and decided to keep that warning to himself for now as the factions prepared to bid.

• Yan Shaozhe and Xuan Zi failed to probe the white cloth and sensed its unusual bloodied patterns, while the Holy Spirit Cult coveted its evil power.
• Electrolux urged Huo Yuhao to obtain the cloth and explained that its ancient blood came from a powerful evil existence whose power could turn absorbers into monsters.
• Huo Yuhao considered warning Shrek Academy but kept quiet to avoid exposing his secrets, hoping the Holy Spirit Cult would not acquire the cloth.

• Mu En and Yan Shaozhe sensed powerful Evil Power in the cloth and waited for Jiang Li to explain its nature.

• Zhongli Wu still chose to bid, while Mu En told Yan Shaozhe that Shrek Academy could not let the Holy Spirit Cult obtain the cloth and signaled Xuan Zi to prepare to intercept them.
• Gu Yuena judged the blood's Evil Power to be extraordinarily potent, while the Soul Beast Clan declined to bid and Myriad Demon King looked forward to the human factions fighting over it.

• Jiang Li warned that an unqualified caster could suffer damage or turn into an undead, alarming the Holy Spirit Cult Elders.

Jiang Li opened bidding for the Undead Reincarnation Art, drawing fierce competition from the major factions. Gu Yuena ordered Di Tian to prevent humans from using the art on Soul Beast corpses, and Di Tian’s high bids began driving other factions out.

• Gu Yuena agreed that the Soul Beast Clan should bid for the Undead Reincarnation Art and ordered Di Tian to keep it from Human Soul Masters.

• Mu En and Xuan Zi suspected the incomplete Small Pagoda was a Divine Artifact or an inheritance item and waited for Starry Sky Auction House to explain it.

At the Starry Sky Auction House, Jiang Li revealed that the final item, the Heaven Suppressing God Tower, was half of a Divine Artifact with powerful control, offensive, and defensive abilities. As Gu Yuena sensed a vast will sealed within it, Jiang Li disclosed that the tower also held an inheritance from a true God-tier expert.

The auction for the Divine Artifact containing an incomplete God Position reached five billion Gold Soul Coins, with Jing Hongchen of Mingde Hall outbidding the other factions. His confidence led Mu En and Xian Lin'er to suspect Mingde Hall had developed a legendary Tenth-Level Soul Tool.

• Du Busi decided the Body Sect would stay out of the bidding and wait for the other factions to fight.
• Gu Yuena told Di Tian the incomplete Divine Artifact would take years to produce a god and suggested the Soul Beast Clan might gain its own opportunities through the Starry Sky Auction House.

Jing Hongchen won the Divine Artifact containing a God Position Inheritance, but Zhongli Wu confronted him before he could leave the auction house. Xu Tianran revealed that he had arranged the bid with Jing Hongchen and stalled Zhongli Wu while Mingde Hall prepared a forbidden weapon, leaving Zhongli Wu realizing the delay was a trap.

Ye Xishui and Long Xiaoyao arrived at the Starry Sky Auction House, where Jing Hongchen used the Tenth-Level Humanoid Mech to battle Long Xiaoyao and open an escape route for Xu Tianran’s group. The Holy Spirit Cult pursued them toward Mingde Hall, while Mu En decided Shrek Academy should not get involved.
