A New Opportunity

"This Soul Tool is amazing; it can see so clearly even from this distance."

"Absolutely. It comes from the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect School, the richest sect on the entire continent, and also the sect with the best development of Soul Tool in the original Three Kingdoms region."

"These Soul Tool are really novel. I'll discuss it with Ning Tian later, and I'll buy a few more to give to my family to play with."

Xu Sanshi looked through his binoculars at Star Luo Square in the distance, explaining his procurement plan as he did so.

Soul Tool are truly outrageous; they defy all the laws of physics, relying entirely on Soul Power and Core Array.

"Bei Bei, shouldn't we call the others up? They're going to play too."

"No need. Teacher Wang doesn't let us watch the game because she doesn't want to put too much pressure on us."

"Telling them is useless; their strength is far too inferior. They can only worry helplessly."

This is how Bei Bei explained it.

Jiang Nannan's Soul Skill is indeed quite good. Although her own stats are weak, it can be surprisingly effective in certain situations.

Ning Tian could tell that Wang Yan was hiding her emotions, but since she was a Support System Soul Master with little combat ability, bringing her along was pointless.

Wang Dong'er isn't here, so Huo Yuhao can't unleash his Martial Soul Fusion Skill alone. He's currently in Ma Xiaotao's room suppressing her Evil Fire.

"Seeing these people's matches, I think Teacher Wang has too much confidence in us. That Zhengtian Academy actually has three Soul King."

"Especially that Ye Wuqing, his Golden Leaf Martial Soul is very strong. If he were a student of our Shrek, he might already be Soul Emperor by now, right?"

"And that Tang Xiaolei, his fifth ring is actually a thousand-year-old one, what a pity. If it were the best configuration, we might really not be able to beat him."

"Bei Bei! What you're saying is true, our chances of winning are also very high, okay?"

Hearing Bei Bei praising his opponent without reservation, Xu Sanshi felt that he was boosting the opponent's morale and immediately retorted.

There are only the three of them here, so there's no need for them to hide too much.

"Think about it, aside from the 2-2-3 Battle Formation, our lineup isn't afraid of anything. Even with the 2-2-3 Battle Formation, Chen Yuan can easily win a match."

"If you and I team up, winning one more game will end the match."

"Unless Zhengtian Academy is hiding a Soul Emperor, I don't believe they can defeat Chen Yuan."

With Black Tortoise and the Bright Sacred Dragon as their trump cards, Bei Bei and Xu Sanshi's combat power is fully capable of being used as Soul King.

In other words, these two relationships don't last.

"Heh, that sounds nice, but you think you can actively control your Black Tortoise Awakening?"

"If we team up, victory will ultimately depend on me."

As she spoke, a golden light emanated from Bei Bei's left arm, revealing a Soul Bone.

"Golden Radiance Left Arm Bone? Bei Bei, when did you buy it and absorb it?"

"It was bought by my elders. Although this Soul Bone is a bit young, at least it has stabilized my Bright Sacred Dragon Bloodline."

"As long as I don't activate my bloodline too frequently, I'll be fine."

"Congratulations! You two have both improved so much in strength, now I'm the only one left."

Without Huo Yuhao's special privileges, the Golden Radiance Left Arm Bone finally ended up in Bei Bei's hands.

When Xu Sanshi heard that Bei Bei's bloodline had stabilized, and then looked at Chen Yuan, who could enter a special state at any moment, he felt betrayed.

If only he hadn't gone to the wrong door when he Awakening!

"Alright, don't be disappointed. Tonight, Teacher Wang said he'll take us to an auction to see if there are any Soul Tool that we can use."

"Huh? Still looking? Don't we have Soul Tool provided by the Nine Treasures Glazed Sect?"

"It's different. We've taken on the responsibility of protecting Shrek Academy's eternal honor. It would be a waste not to use this funding."

Chen Yuan originally did not want to participate in this auction, as the most important Blade of Life had become the Heart of Life in his chest.

After much deliberation, Chen Yuan decided to go and see, saying that the Plane Consciousness had unexpectedly provided Huo Yuhao with a completely new opportunity.

Evening, at the Starlight Auction House.

After receiving a white mask, the group walked to the front of the auction hall and sat down.

Xiao Xiao and Ning Tian sat together, seemingly talking about something.

Soon, the auction began. Tonight's auction was a special session for Soul Tool. Wang Yan was only there to replenish their Reserve Team with some more Soul Tool.

Thanks to the Soul Tool provided by Ning Tian, Wang Yan only bought two or three items this time.

Chen Yuan stayed focused until the very last item was brought to the stage, determined not to miss Huo Yuhao's expression.

Chen Yuan's gaze kept shifting between the items about to be auctioned on the stage and Huo Yuhao.

If this is truly Plane Consciousness given to Huo Yuhao by the consciousness of the plane, then he will definitely react, or it will fall into his hands for various bizarre reasons later.

"Distinguished guests, this is the mystery gift of our auction today: Ranking Engraving Knife!"

"I believe everyone here knows how important the carving knife is to a Soul Engineer; it's no exaggeration to say it's Soul Engineer's third hand."

"The importance of a good carving knife to Soul Engineer is beyond doubt. Today, our Starlight Auction House is fortunate to auction such a Ranking Engraving Knife!"

Ranking Engraving Knife, no matter what it is, will be ridiculously expensive and will be snapped up.

As for that Spirit-Devouring Fierce Knife, that was an accident.

Chen Yuan didn't care about the carving knife. He wasn't Soul Engineer. He could use Soul Tool, but making them was a bit too much for him.

He wouldn't have bought the Spirit-Devouring Fierce Knife if it weren't for Electrolux.

"Ranking Engraving Knife, the Ice Extreme Cold Knife!"

"The performance of this carving knife is definitely no less than that of the top forty carving knives. However, if the user is not an ice-attribute Soul Master and the ice attribute is not strong enough, the full performance of this carving knife cannot be brought into play."

"Therefore, taking all factors into account, this carving knife ranks so low."

"The Ice Extreme Cold Knife, starting bid 300,000 Gold Soul Coin! Each bid must be at least 10,000 Gold Soul Coin higher. Distinguished guests, you may now begin the auction."

As soon as he finished speaking, those interested in the carving knife began to bid, and the price quickly rose to over 600,000 Gold Soul Coin.

Judging from this trend, the price will likely at least double.

If this carving knife were auctioned in the Sun Moon region, its price would definitely be much higher, as there are relatively too few Soul Engineer in the original Three Kingdoms region.

Moreover, it must be an ice-attribute martial Soul Engineer.

Hearing the price of the Ice Extreme Cold Knife skyrocketing, Huo Yuhao, who was standing to the side, slowly relaxed his clenched fist.

This price is definitely not something Shrek can afford right now. They only came to take a look on a whim and didn't apply for much funding at all.

Unless Shrek Academy allocates another large sum of money right now, there is absolutely no way this carving knife will fall into Huo Yuhao's hands.

Huo Yuhao was lost in thought for a moment, then he immediately turned to ask Wang Yan.

"Teacher Wang, this carving knife is perfect for me. Can the academy acquire it?"

"Yuhao, I understand how you feel," Wang Yan paused, then finally spoke, "But the funds approved by the academy are limited, and at this price..."

Upon hearing Wang Yan's words, Huo Yuhao slumped into his chair, anxiously wondering how he could get his hands on the carving knife.

Huo Yuhao's movements and momentary daze did not escape Chen Yuan's notice; it must have been the Ice Empress and the Sky Dream Ice Silkworm in his Sea of Consciousness who spoke to him.

Judging from the appearance, this carving knife in front of him should be the Plane Consciousness of the plane gave to Huo Yuhao as compensation.

Regardless of the process, it will eventually fall into Huo Yuhao's hands.

I just don't know what's so magical about this carving knife.

Four million Gold Soul Coin!

Ning Tian raised his bidding paddle and immediately increased the price by two million, silencing the entire auction hall.

Seeing Chen Yuan's questioning look, Ning Tian remained calm and composed, as if she hadn't just made the bid.

"I bought it to keep as a collectible, to use as a decorative item."

Chen Yuan silently gave a thumbs up. "They really are rich and capricious, using Ranking Engraving Knife as a decoration."

This was another way of handling things that Chen Yuan wouldn't even dare to imagine.

In the end, Ning Tian acquired the carving knife for 4.3 million Gold Soul Coin.

Could this be considered Ning Tian stealing Huo Yuhao's opportunity?

In any case, if Huo Yuhao wants to get this carving knife from Ning Tian in the future, it will be impossible without paying a price higher than this.

No one in the world knows the value of an item better than the owner of the Seven Treasures Glazed Pagoda Martial Soul.

Whether they know you or not, as long as the martial soul shows even the slightest reaction, they'll dare to buy it.

Huo Yuhao breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing this. At least with Ning Tian in his hands, he should still have a chance to get his hands on it in the future.
