They All Said Ning Fengzhi Liked Cat Girls
Sword Douluo had already recognized that it was Lin Yuan, a teacher at the Heaven Dou Royal Academy, since he was the only one with white hair and a blood-red robe.
Ning Fengzhi asked curiously, "So, His Lord Lin Yuan has also come. Could it be that he's also here for that Soul Bone?"
"It's still unclear." Sword Douluo shook his head. No one knows for sure until the very end. "Perhaps it's just for fun. The Crystal Dragon Beast Soul Beast is extremely important to our Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, and we are determined to get it."
As a gemstone-type Martial Soul, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda corresponds to a specific Soul Master. Therefore, most Soul Master who possess the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda will choose to kill gemstone-type Soul Beast.
As a gem-type Soul Beast, the Crystal Dragon Beast is extremely important to the Soul Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda, especially its Soul Bone, which is extremely rare and hard to come by.
If she could give it to her daughter Ning Rongrong, it would be absolutely beneficial for her.
Sword Douluo stroked his chin, raised an eyebrow thoughtfully, and after a long pause, said, "Whether it's for that Soul Bone or not, we must obtain it. Gem-type Soul Beast are already scarce, and Soul Bone are even rarer. We must get it directly."
Ning Fengzhi did not directly answer Uncle Sword's decision, but he thought of a way to achieve the best of both worlds: not only would he not offend His Lord Lin Yuan, but he would also be able to obtain this Soul Bone.
Not far from Ning Fengzhi stood a masked man with a middle parting. Judging from his figure and age, it was easy to tell that this was Tang San, a disciple of the Shrek Academy.
Tang San came here to see if he could find anything he wanted, especially something good for his Hidden Weapon crafting.
As for the ticket to get here, Tang San auctioned off one of his Hidden Weapon, the Hidden Weapon: Sandstorm, thus gaining official access to the Auction House.
Tang San squinted, his gaze fixed on the auction stage, and muttered to himself, "It looks like the upcoming Auction House be exceptionally difficult. I wonder if I'll be able to get what I need..."
With most of the nobles who came for the auction having arrived, the Auction House began.
The first item up for auction was a special Soul Tool, and the wealthy people around naturally wouldn't let such a good opportunity pass them by, and they started bidding like crazy.
It was eventually sold for 55,000 Gold Soul Coin.
Looking at the eager gazes around him, the auctioneer chuckled and said, "Hehe, I believe everyone will be very interested in the treasures to be auctioned next, especially the men."
As he spoke, the auctioneer revealed a lewd expression, turned around, and gestured to the audience, where three burly men pushed a cart up.
The cart was covered with a red cloth, so you couldn't see what was inside, but from its shape, it looked like a large square box.
I just don't know if I'll ever meet him.
The host said mysteriously, "Can everyone guess what this is? Well then, I'll reveal the starting price to all the VIPs first. The starting price for this item is 100,000 Gold Soul Coin. Each bid must be at least 10,000 Gold Soul Coin. This is a top-tier item among top-tier items."
As the auctioneer, creating a lively atmosphere and stimulating the enthusiasm of the bidders is clearly a must-learn skill, and he successfully captured their attention.
"And I guarantee it's absolutely the cleanest."
As the auctioneer's voice faded, everyone in the room seemed to have already guessed what was going on, because "clean" meant that no one had touched the woman inside.
After the red light flashed, what was revealed was not a box, but a huge iron cage. Inside the cage, a young girl was curled up.
The girl's body was mostly naked, with only her vital parts covered by seashells. Because she was curled up, her face was not clearly visible, but her figure was almost perfect.
Her fair skin was like a piece of crystal jade, and her short, light blue hair had a unique charm.
Lin Yuan rested his chin on his hand, looking at the catwoman in the cage, and also cast a meaningful smile toward Ning Fengzhi. Everyone said that Ning Fengzhi liked catwomen, but it was unknown whether he would try to snatch her away again this time.
The auctioneer's lips curled into a strange smile as he said, "Friends, I'm sure you all really want to have this girl. She's mutated during her Martial Soul Awakening, and possesses a very special ability: Beast Transformation. If you get her, you'll definitely be living the high life every night."
Upon hearing this, many of the merchants in the room revealed lewd expressions, especially a fat man whose mouth was watering, as if he couldn't wait to taste the girl.
"Distinguished guests, make your bids. This is the first time in many years that we have captured a girl who can Beast Transformation."
Tang San clenched his fist and said, "These beasts actually brought a living person to auction off. Aren't they afraid of divine retribution?"
Ning Fengzhi glanced at Tang San beside him and said with a smile, "That's how auction houses are. Besides, this is the Auction House of the Heaven Dou Empire. There's nothing they can't auction here. Even a person's life is meaningless in the eyes of the auctioneer."
Tang San gritted his teeth and said, "Aren't they afraid of going through with their conscience?"
"That's for the weak. The strong usually don't complain. Besides, the Douluo Continent is a dog-eat-dog world. If you want to survive, you can only rely on your own abilities."
"This is not fair!"
Tang San looked at Ning Fengzhi, the sect leader of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, who was standing beside him, and said angrily.
"Fairness?" Sword Douluo said sarcastically, "There is no such thing as fairness in this world. Some people are tall, and some are short. Some people have high positions and great power, and some people are born into lowly families. Fairness is just a joke."
"No matter the century, the weak are always slaves to the strong. Even if times change, what changes is only the way of enslavement. Only the victor can define right and wrong. That's how the real world is. To achieve one's goals, any means are acceptable!"
Sword Douluo's words may not have been pleasant to hear, but every word he uttered made perfect sense.
Tang San fell silent instantly.
What makes this world interesting is its injustices.
The fairness that these people talk about is nothing but the most ridiculous joke.
"Does the strong get to do whatever they want?"
Tang San clenched his fist and asked.
"That's right." At this moment, Sword Douluo Chen Xin was already holding back a lot of anger. Now these guys were demanding fairness here, so today he would show them what fairness really was.
