"Teacher Naiya, why do we have to wear masks?" asked Jiang Nannan, who had never been to the auction house.

Huo Yuhao, who had also never seen the world, immediately pricked up his ears.

Inverted Clone said, "To avoid unnecessary trouble."

He pointed to a circle of bidders sitting at the front wearing black and red masks, "Have you seen the masks these people are wearing?"

Huo Yuhao and Jiang Nannan nodded.

"The color of the mask is used to distinguish customer levels. It is the same as the Spirit Ring color classification. The lowest is white, and the order is upward. The reason for distinguishing the levels is not only to satisfy certain people's psychology, but also to tell some people who they can't afford to offend, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble."

Hearing what Inverted Clone said, Huo Yuhao and Jiang Nannan finally understood why they wear masks and the differences between masks of different colors, and there was such an unspoken rule hidden in it.

"Welcome all distinguished guests to Starlight Auction House, our auction will begin soon, please take your seats."

As soon as the group of people found their seats and sat down, beautiful female voices came from all directions, and the auction hall suddenly became quiet.

As the light in the auction hall gradually dimmed, and the lights on the auction stage began to brighten, a woman in a purple dress moved lightly from the side of the auction hall and walked onto the auction stage.

"Good evening, distinguished guests, I am Qingya, the purple-level auctioneer of Starlight Auction House, and I will be hosting the auction today."

Auctioneer Qingya bowed ninety degrees to the audience, and there was a sound of swallowing in the audience. Qingya seemed to be used to it, and said with a smile, "Next, Qingya will introduce the basic situation of this auction to everyone."

"The theme of this auction is soul guides. Since only soul guides below level six will be auctioned, the specifications are low, but they are suitable for soul masters and soul mentors who are soul kings and below. At the same time, in order to make your trip worthwhile, we have a mysterious gift at the end. Please don't miss it."

Hearing that this auction was the theme of Soul Tool, Wang Dong suddenly felt like he had been deceived, and a surge of anger arose in his heart, "Teacher Naiya, the owner of this auction To call Soul Tool, just bring Linyuan and Huo Yuhao, why do you have to bring us with you? We don't understand Soul Tool."

After saying that, Wang Dong stood up angrily and was about to leave, but Tang Wulin couldn't stop him.

"Sit down!"

Inverted Clone's calm voice, but also containing invisible majesty, directly pushed Wang Dong back to his position.

That's right, she just pushed it back.

The huge gap in strength between the two made Wang Dong unable to resist at all, which made Wang Dong, who had a bad temper, even more angry.

Although after Tang Wulin had a cold war with Soul Tool for several months in order to learn from her, Wang Dong is no longer as repulsive to Soul Tool as before, but it is still too difficult for her to completely accept Soul Tool for such a small thing.

Even if she wants to accept it, she still has to ask Tang San whether the spiritual thought left in her Sea of Consciousness agrees.

With the precedent of Tang Wulin, how could the ancient man Tang San allow Wang Dong to break away from his thoughts and come into contact with new things that would eliminate his Tang Sect and Hidden Weapon.

Inverted Clone didn't give her any face at all, "Why did I bring you here? Don't you have any idea?"

Seeing Inverted Clone, who had always been gentle and elegant in their minds, swearing directly, everyone felt like their knowledge was shattered.

"If it weren't for the requirements of the college and as your teacher, I wouldn't be so idle. I don't live by the sea. Why should I be so lenient?"

Inverted Clone crossed his legs and said indifferently, "You have also seen the competitions of other colleges today, and you have been hit hard enough..."

As soon as today's game was mentioned, everyone was on the verge of tears. "Can you please stop mentioning this matter..."

"Did you really not notice anything? All the eyes are so beautiful, but they are just used for decoration. It is really a waste." Inverted Clone said without mercy.

Hearing these familiar words, Gu Yuena suddenly started to gloat.

"Huo Yuhao, tell me what you discovered through today's game."

Huo Yuhao said without hesitation, "Almost every participating student from the participating colleges is equipped with Soul Tool, or at least Defensive Soul Tool."

"Yes, that's right." Inverted Clone took the words and said, "This session of the continent's top senior Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament is very different from before. Almost all colleges except Shrek Academy are developing in the direction of integrating Soul Engineer and Spirit Master. Even the worst Soul Master Academy will at least equip students with Defensive Soul Tool."

Not knowing where the confidence came from, Wang Dong retorted, "That's because they have forgotten the glory of Spirit Master. The battle between us Spirit Master should be pure. The power we have cultivated is the most reliable and trustworthy."

Xia Linyuan took out the soul guide revolver he made with his backhand, put it against Wang Dong's temple, and said nonchalantly, "I can kill you with one shot right now, but can the reliable strength you have cultivated by yourself be able to withstand the power of my level four attack Soul Tool?"

Feeling the coolness coming from her temples, Wang Dong suddenly felt extremely aggrieved, and her beautiful eyes were instantly covered with a hazy mist, looking like she was pitiful.

When the others saw this, they immediately stood up and pressed back the soul guide revolver that was pressed against Wang Dong's temple, "Linyuan (Captain), don't be impulsive, be careful of fire!"

"Haha." Xia Linyuan chuckled and put away the soul guide revolver.

"I can tell you clearly that more than 80% of the participating colleges that have passed the first round of elimination are equipped with Soul Tool. If nothing unexpected happens, all the next high-level Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament in the continent will be equipped with Soul Tool, even Shrek Academy is no exception."

"Furthermore, the next continental high-level Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Tournament will be the host country, but Sun Moon Empire, the competition rules are all customized by the host country. As a big Soul Engineer country, do you think Sun Moon Empire will follow the competition rules of our big country Spirit Master that are disadvantageous to them?"

"I said that the reason why I brought you to the Soul Tool auction was also the request of the college. On the day I returned to the college, the top leader of the college personally issued an order that all Inner Court disciples must come Soul Guidance Department go there and tailor-make at least one Flying Soul Tool and one Defensive Soul Tool that are no less than level five, and let me equip you with Soul Tool during the competition."

"Huo Yuhao, tell them what will be the difference if they install Defensive Soul Tool on Yao Haoxuan and Chen Zifeng."

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao immediately understood the intention of Inverted Clone and said in a deep voice, "Senior Sister Xiaotao, all seven of them have cultivation levels above Soul King. In other words, they can at least assemble Defensive Soul Tool above level five, or even level six."

"Although I don't know as much about Soul Tool as my teacher, I'm sure that Corpse Explosion can't break through the defense of level six Defensive Soul Tool, and level five Defensive Soul Tool can at least guarantee that they won't be disabled and their injuries will be reduced by at least 60%."

Speaking of this, Huo Yuhao's eyes dimmed, "If senior Yao Haoxuan and senior Chen Zifeng were equipped with level five Defensive Soul Tool, they might not have died in battle..."

After hearing this, everyone fell silent immediately, even Wang Dong, who was having a bad temper, stopped talking.

"Did you hear that? If Yao Haoxuan and Chen Zifeng were equipped with Defensive Soul Tool, they might not have died in battle. And do you want to experience such a thing again?"

When they heard Inverted Clone ask them if they wanted to experience it a second time, everyone cheered up in unison.

Yes, do they want to experience such a tragic thing again?

But before they could answer, Inverted Clone looked at it leisurely and said to himself, "They are all a group of masters who have never suffered a loss personally and have a long memory. I brought the words from the academy. As a teacher, I have done what I should do. You can do whatever you like. Anyway, it will not be my turn to collect the corpses for you in the future."

At this time, Huo Yuhao stood up and said, "Friends, although Teacher Naiya said a bit too much, what Teacher Naiya said is true."

"Among the seven of us, Wang Dong, Wulin and I all belong to the Tang Sect, the legendary Tang Sect. I believe you also know the history of the Tang Sect."

"Tang Sect was once the most glorious existence in the mainland. At that time, Tang Sect was even more glorious than Shrek Academy. But why has Tang Sect almost disappeared now?

"It's because after the emergence of Soul Tool, the former Tang Sect still remained stubborn and did not keep pace with the times, so it was naturally eliminated by the times."

"And we are now, just like the former Tang Sect, at a critical moment of the transition of the times. Only by perfectly integrating Soul Tool with our own strength can we become stronger and not be eliminated by the times."

Huo Yuhao's words were so powerful that everyone couldn't help but be moved by them.

Tang Wulin was also deeply touched, "Friends, Linyuan once told me that the reason why he practices Soul Engineer is because Soul Tool can bring a glimmer of life and a glimmer of opportunity to more soldiers in the war."

"Without the powerful Soul Tool to resist the invasion of Abyssal Creatures, would we still be able to live as peacefully in the rear as we do now?"

The words of a few people were so precise that the others were greatly shocked.

After thinking for a while, Ning Tian was the first to stand up and said, "I am willing to try, not for anyone else, just for myself."

Gu Yuena said calmly, "I have never rejected Soul Tool."

Gu Yuena and Ning Tian spoke one after another. When it was Jiang Nannan's turn, she hesitated for a moment and said, "Soul Tool seems very expensive..."

"You don't need to worry about money. The college will solve the funding problem."

Jiang Nannan's eyes suddenly lit up and he immediately said, "Then I have no problem."

Gu Yuena, Ning Tian, and Jiang Nannan have all expressed their attitudes one after another, not to mention Xia Linyuan, Huo Yuhao, and Tang Wulin. The only problem now is Wang Dong.

In addition to Xia Linyuan and Gu Yuena, as well as Jiang Nannan and Ning Tian who were not too familiar with Wang Dong, Huo Yuhao and Tang Wulin looked at her expectantly.

Wang Dong, who had been silent all the time, showed a look of struggle in his eyes, seeming to be hesitating between accepting and not accepting. But then, Wang Dong suddenly firmed up and said resolutely, "No, I have a problem, I will not use Soul Tool."

After saying this, Wang Dong lowered his head and didn't want to pay attention to anyone anymore.

Feeling the fluctuation of Wang Dong Sea of Consciousness's soul deep inside, Inverted Clone's mouth curled up in a mocking arc.

Inverted Clone said calmly, "I said, you don't want to use Soul Tool, and I won't force you to use it, but for your safety, you stay here and wait for us to go back together."

While they were talking, the auction had already begun, and the third lot had even been auctioned.

The third-level Soul Guidance Ray with paralysis effect that was photographed by Huo Yuhao in the original work would have almost been missed if Xia Linyuan hadn't taken the picture.

As early as the moment this third-level Soul Guidance Ray was brought up, its soul guidance core formation had already been firmly remembered by Xia Linyuan.

As a special event for Soul Tool, there are quite a lot of good things, and most of them are level 3 to level 5 Soul Tool, and many of them can be used by them.

Under Huo Yuhao's analysis, Inverted Clone and Xia Linyuan made frequent moves and purchased more than a dozen pieces of Soul Tool, all of which they could use.

"Dear distinguished guests, our mysterious gift is about to be unveiled. At the same time, this is also the last auction item tonight."

"Originally, it should not have appeared here, but in order to thank all the distinguished guests for their continued support of Starlight, with the permission of the chief auctioneer of our auction house, we have specially added this lot. Although its price is very high, I believe that everyone who truly understands it will find it worthwhile."

Apart from the Soul Devouring Carving Knife, what else can this lot be?

After Soul Devouring Carving Knife was put on the auction block, the curious Huo Yuhao directly used Spiritual Detection to detect Soul Devouring Carving Knife.

It doesn't matter if you don't explore it, but it will matter if you explore it.

The moment her Spiritual Detection touched Soul Devouring Carving Knife, there was an indescribable sharpness that tore her Spiritual Detection and Spiritual Origin together.

The feeling that his whole body was about to be torn apart from the middle made Huo Yuhao's soul tremble, and his eyes couldn't stop crying.

It took quite a while to finally recover.

Everyone also noticed something was wrong with Huo Yuhao. They were all startled and asked with concern, "Huo Yuhao, are you okay?"

Huo Yuhao, who was in tears, shook his head and said that he was fine.

Contrary to Huo Yuhao, who felt as if his whole body was about to be torn apart, the moment Xia Linyuan's consciousness fell on Soul Devouring Carving Knife, the evil spirit in Soul Devouring Carving Knife suddenly stagnated, as if it was a turtle with its head shrunk, Soul Devouring Carving Knife was afraid to show its head.

Hum.

Feeling Soul Devouring Carving Knife's fear, Xia Linyuan raised the corners of his mouth slightly, full of disdain.
