Treasure Appreciation Fair is held in a store named Treasure Gathering Pavilion in the most prosperous city center of Shrek City.
Although Shrek Academy's college gate occupies the entire east gate of Shrek City, Shrek Academy does not have a backdoor directly connected to Shrek City.
Therefore, if Xia Linyuan and others want to go to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, they must go out through the gate of the Shrek Academy, which is the east gate of Shrek City, and then go around to the north gate closest to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion to enter.
In this regard, Xia Linyuan feels that the guy who planned the current layout of Shrek City has a big hole in his mind. Isn't it inappropriate to give someone's head to those who are hostile to the Shrek Academy?
Then Holy Spirit Cult and Sun Moon Empire Royal Soul Engineer Academy are not very discerning. Every time the core disciple Treasure Appreciation Fair has such a good opportunity, no one comes to pick up the core disciple's head.
Anyway, Shrek Academy teachers like Zhou Yi and Xuan Zi are everywhere who don't take their students into consideration. For example, when Xuan Zi was leading a team to perform inspection tasks, he got separated from the students, causing the students to encounter Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, suffered heavy casualties, Ma Xiaotao lost control of Evil Fire a year ago, and Dai Huabin sent people to assassinate Huo Yuhao in the original work... and so on, there are countless.
When they see someone intercepting and killing their core disciples, these Titled Douluos will still watch the students' performance in the dark, so why worry about not having time to escape?
As for Mu En, people like Yan Shaozhe will take action and will not interfere in the matter of students being hunted down. Unless this enemy is an existence that Yan Shaozhe cannot defeat, they will take action.
With the superposition of various buffs, as long as you are stronger and willing to put some thought into it, it is not easy to pick up a few heads.
Shrek City is very large. After Xia Linyuan and his group left the academy, it took them an hour to arrive at the gate of Shrek City North City.
If the number of people in Huo Yuhao is not considered, Xia Linyuan and Gu Yuena can directly space-cross into Shrek City.
At the Shrek City North City Gate, there was an endless stream of people entering and leaving the city. As far as the eye could see, there was a dense flow of people. The main road in the city was extremely wide, enough to accommodate eight carriages traveling in parallel.
"So many people!" Huo Yuhao said in surprise.
Wang Dong said, "Isn't that right? Shrek City is one of the most prosperous economic centers in the mainland. Its total population is close to five million, which is not much different from the imperial cities of several major empires. It's normal."
Xiao Xiao asked in surprise, "Huo Yuhao, haven't you been to Shrek City?"
Huo Yuhao nodded and said with some embarrassment, "You don't know how bad I was when I first entered school. In order to stay in the college and continue studying, how could I dare to come to Shrek City to play, and I don't have any money."
Tang Wulin said, "Let's just relax this time."
Huo Yuhao nodded.
Even walking from the North City Gate nearest to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion takes a full quarter of an hour.
This Treasure Gathering Pavilion is just as Xia Linyuan thought, it is a large store. From a distance, Treasure Gathering Pavilion has only four floors, but is more than 20 meters high. It has a magnificent appearance, just like its name, like a cornucopia.
When they saw the eight girls standing in front of the gate wearing strapless clothes, with unobstructed curves, and fair skin that looked even more graceful against the backdrop of the resplendent Treasure Gathering Pavilion, everyone except Xia Linyuan was more or less stunned.
Even Gu Yuena couldn't help but feel a little cautious when he saw the scene in front of him.
Why has she been sleeping in Star Dou Great Forest for tens of thousands of years? Why have human beings changed so much?
"It's time to close your eyes. You are all wearing Shrek Academy's school uniforms now. Don't let others see the joke." Xia Linyuan reminded him calmly.
Except for Xia Linyuan, who changed into casual clothes, everyone else was wearing Shrek Academy's school uniform. It was really difficult not to be noticed.
Xia Linyuan and the others had just walked to the door of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. One of the eight girls at the door had already come out to greet them. With a faint smile, she asked respectfully, "Are you Spirit Master here to attend Treasure Appreciation Fair?"
Xia Linyuan took out his invitation and handed it over. After the girl read the invitation, the smile on her face suddenly became softer, "Spirit Master, please come with me."
As she spoke, she made a guiding hand gesture and walked ahead.
Walking into the Treasure Gathering Pavilion, the luxurious atmosphere immediately hits your face. The golden hall is full of luxury, and there are two rows of girls wearing golden skirts standing on both sides of the hall.
Under the leadership of the girl, Xia Linyuan and the others arrived at the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. The second floor was much quieter than the first floor.
"Welcome VIPs to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion Treasure Appreciation Fair, Treasure Appreciation Fair is held on the second floor of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. VIPs can browse at will. If there are items you like and you need credit service, please go to the west side to register for purchase and evaluation. The credit evaluation results will determine the discounts that the VIPs can enjoy and the amount of credit they can borrow."
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but look at Xia Linyuan. Over the past year, they had long been accustomed to asking his opinions first.
"This is our first time to Treasure Appreciation Fair. I apologize for the offence. I wonder if I can invite the beautiful lady to take us to the west side for credit evaluation."
With that said, Xia Linyuan gave the girl a noble salute very elegantly, and then made a gesture to guide the way.
Even if Xia Linyuan changes into casual clothes, he is still very particular. Just like Treasure Appreciation Fair this time, he is also wearing casual clothes similar to evening clothes.
On such occasions, wearing banquet attire such as evening gown is a sign of respect for the organizer, especially among a group of students wearing school uniforms.
As for whether he really respects the organizer, only Xia Linyuan himself knows.
Anyway, the purpose of wearing casual clothes is just to provide convenience for himself, just like now.
Exquisite appearance, serious expression, aura of nobility that seems to come from the bottom of the body, aristocratic etiquette that can only be performed among aristocrats...
Everything seems to be connected together naturally and inadvertently, strongly impacting the girl's five senses.
She has sold herself to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion since she was a child. After years of strict etiquette training, she can stand in front of the Treasure Gathering Pavilion to greet guests who come to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion.
She has met many people, and she has seen the undisguised aggression in their eyes, lingering on every part of her body. She has seen them pretending to be modest and gentlemen, but inadvertently revealing their gaze towards her...
She has seen many, many things, and she is extremely disgusted in her heart, and even wants to fight back, but she knows that she is no longer herself, and coupled with the professional education she has developed over the years, she can only smile at these hypocritical and ugly guys, otherwise she will not be able to fit in the huge Douluo Continent.
But the appearance of Xia Linyuan has refreshed her understanding. No one has ever been so ordinary as Xia Linyuan, who respects her in his words and deeds without any trace of pretense.
The girl's face turned red and she nodded and said, "Distinguished guest, please follow me." After saying that, she led the group of people towards the west.
As she walked, the girl secretly glanced at Xia Linyuan, "We at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion will formulate different credit qualifications based on the different circumstances of each VIP who comes to participate in Treasure Appreciation Fair."
The so-called evaluation is a comprehensive evaluation based on their current cultivation level, age, Spirit Master type, etc.
"The distinguished guests can rest assured that we at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion will strictly keep secrets and will never reveal the privacy of our guests to the outside world. At the same time, we will not inquire about family backgrounds, origins, etc. We at the Treasure Gathering Pavilion have a set of detailed confidentiality measures for each of our distinguished guests."
The girl led a group of people to the west side, following behind her. Except for Xia Linyuan, everyone else's eyes were attracted to the booths around them from time to time.
"Treasure Appreciation Fair actually has Soul Bone for auction!??" Wang Dong suddenly exclaimed.
Hearing this, everyone stopped and followed Wang Dong's gaze.
The piece of Soul Bone mentioned by Wang Dong is presented in golden red color. It looks like an arm bone, with five slender finger bones pointing upward. Each fingertip exudes a dull golden red light, making the whole piece of Soul Bone full of texture.
This is the piece in the original work that originated from the ten thousand year Golden Earth Dragon King and the light attribute Golden Light Left Arm Bone.
Gu Yuena couldn't help but be shocked, "It's actually a piece of Golden Earth Dragon King's left arm bone with pure but degraded light dragon blood!"
She shook her head, "It's a pity that this Golden Earth Dragon King only had a cultivation level of 10,000 years when it was killed. But, if its cultivation level could exceed 100,000 years, its Soul Bone wouldn't be here."
"Nine and a half million Gold Soul Coin, so expensive!" Xiao Xiao was so shocked by the price that he subconsciously covered his mouth.
Except for Xia Linyuan and Gu Yuena, when everyone else saw the price, they couldn't help but shrink violently at the same time.
What is the concept of nine and a half million Gold Soul Coin?
Even with the changes of the times, the purchasing power of Gold Soul Coin is constantly depreciating. The annual expenditure of a family of three is only dozens of Gold Soul Coin.
And what can 9.5 million Gold Soul Coin do? It can arm a 10,000-person heavy cavalry to the teeth, including horses!
Soul Bone is indeed one of the rarest items in mainland China! And this is not the most advanced Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone. If it is Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone, it is already a truly priceless treasure.
Wang Dong was stunned, "Why is it so expensive? I remember that although the price of Soul Bone is high, there are very few that exceed three million Gold Soul Coin!"
Gu Yuena said indifferently, "The most valuable thing is that its bloodline is pure. As the dragon is the most powerful race on the Douluo Continent, how can Soul Bone, who has pure dragon blood, be any worse?"
Tang Wulin nodded, "It is probably the most precious among Treasure Appreciation Fair. No wonder it is still here. Its value is really terrifying."
Wang Dong asked, "Wulin, I can feel that this Soul Bone is very suitable for me. How much pocket money do you have?"
Tang Wulin thought for a while and said, "I have about two million Gold Soul Coin here. Brother, how many more do you have over there?"
Hearing this, Wang Dong's face suddenly fell, "I still have about three million Gold Soul Coin here, and there are still four and a half million Gold Soul Coin left. It seems that I am going to miss this Soul Bone."
Xiao Xiao said without hesitation, "I still have two hundred thousand Gold Soul Coin here."
Gu Yuena said indifferently, "I still have half a million Gold Soul Coin here."
Although she doesn't only have this little money, her relationship with Wang Dong and Tang Wulin is not good enough for her to lend them the millions Gold Soul Coin Xia Linyuan gave her.
Hearing the crowd asking for hundreds of thousands or millions of Gold Soul Coin, as the only poor family, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but slap his mouth.
As for money, there was nothing she could do.
Xia Linyuan did not say how much money he could lend them, but said nonchalantly, "Let's do an evaluation first. I heard that being a core disciple can get a good discount. Maybe I can add some more money and it will be enough."
Wang Dong nodded.
After walking nearly a hundred meters, they arrived at the end of the west side.
The girl brought them to the counter. A girl immediately stood up at the counter and said respectfully, "Six Spirit Master, please fill in an evaluation form, and we will calculate the amount of credit you can owe in a few minutes."
Six forms were pushed in front of them with exquisite ink pens. The only contents that needed to be filled in were name, gender, age, Soul Power Level, Martial Soul, and honors received.
Just these six simple items, and there is not even a specific Spirit Ring number of years.
Filling out the form was not cumbersome. The six of them completed the form and handed it to the girl.
Not long after the form was submitted, the four people's evaluations came out.
The girl in charge of registering and calculating the credit limit was stunned when she looked at the evaluation results.
"Little Red, hurry up." the girl in the white dress urged.
Hearing the urging of her companions, the girl named Little Red quickly stood up. When she looked at them again, her eyes completely changed. She actually had a bit more fiery brilliance, especially when she looked at Xia Linyuan and Huo Yuhao.
She said softly in a very respectful and gentle tone, "Dear Mr. Xia and Mr. Huo, welcome two distinguished guests to the Treasure Gathering Pavilion. It's like this. I just checked and found that you two have no credit limit with us."
"Ah?" Hearing that neither he nor Xia Linyuan had a credit limit, Huo Yuhao was stunned, "Why?"
Xia Linyuan said calmly, "Let me finish my words first."
Hearing this, Little Red cast a grateful look at him and hurriedly said, "I didn't express myself clearly and the distinguished guest misunderstood. It's like this, Mr. Huo, because you and Mr. Xia have been promoted to our top VIPs Treasure Gathering Pavilion, so there is no upper limit on the credit limit."
"And according to the current privileges of the two VIPs, both VIPs are eligible to choose one thing from Treasure Appreciation Fair to take away every year without paying any fees."
Huo Yuhao suddenly remembered what Qian Duoduo said to them this morning, and it suddenly became clear.
Little Red took out a total of six red and purple cards and placed them on the table. Two of them were red and the other four were purple.
"Miss Gu Yue, Mr. Wang, Mr. Tang, and Miss Xiao, the credit limit for the four of you is one hundred thousand Gold Soul Coin. It can only be used once a year. It needs to be re-evaluated in the second year. You can enjoy a 10% discount on any item you purchase."
