The astronomical price in Gold Soul Coins scared off many, but neither the Tiandou Empire nor Martial Soul Hall were so easily deterred!
Platinium Bishop Salas, representing Martial Soul Hall, bid directly: "Forty million Gold Soul Coins!"
"Hmm? That is... Yue Guan!"
Ning Fengzhi caught a glimpse of a familiar face through the gap in the Martial Soul Hall box window. After a moment of contemplation, he whispered to himself: "Uncle Sword, Martial Soul Hall seems determined to have us."
Sword Douluo shook his head helplessly. Who could blame them when the Sect Master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect was merely a support-type soul master with no combat ability? An offensive Soul Tool capable of killing a Soul Saint-level powerhouse in seconds was exactly what the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect lacked most!
Meanwhile, in the Tiandou Empire box, Qian Renxue wore a smile as she chatted lightly with Snake Lance Douluo: "I fear my teacher is going to suffer a massive financial loss today!"
Snake Lance Douluo's mouth twitched as he cautioned: "Young Master, we must not drive up the price! We still need the support of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
"Rest assured, rest assured! I know the gravity of the situation."
Beyond these two parties, the representatives of the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan could only sigh at their own helplessness. In the face of such immense wealth, they were nothing but paupers.
Ultimately.
The Double-Barreled Rifle was won by Ning Fengzhi for 55.2 million Gold Soul Coins.
"Congratulations to the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect for once again winning a precious offensive Soul Tool!"
Once finished, the host signaled for a maid to bring out another item. After unveiling the red cloth, he announced: "This item is the cultivation technique mentioned in our advertisements. While the effects of this technique cannot be verified on the spot, Dugu Bo has staked his reputation on it! Furthermore, he promises that no matter the final bid, he guarantees an unconditional full refund within one year! However, be warned: if anyone successfully cultivates this technique and then tries to go to Dugu Bo for a refund, he will kill every single one of them!"
Creak~
Qian Renxue pushed open the window and called out: "We trust Dugu Bo's reputation! First, tell us what exactly this item does."
The host bowed toward Qian Renxue and said respectfully: "This item is called the Dao Scripture! It is a cultivation technique! This technique is based on the human meridians, meaning even commoners without soul power can practice it! In other words, one can cultivate the Dao Scripture even before awakening their martial soul! Think about it: if you cultivate the Dao Scripture before awakening, doesn't that mean you can cultivate innate soul power in advance? Thus, innate level eight soul power, level nine, or even Innate Full Soul Power... are no longer just dreams!"
"Hiss~~"
The entire auction venue was filled with the sound of gasping. Everyone was flushed with excitement and agitation! Some could barely restrain themselves from bidding!
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Tang San shouted in his private box.
He could not believe that in this world, aside from the Mysterious Heaven Skill, there existed another technique that allowed commoners to cultivate without innate soul power.
In the box.
Dugu Yan asked: "Ozka, can the Dao Scripture really allow a soul master to reach Innate Full Soul Power?"
Ozka laughed: "How could that be possible? Not to mention that we are all just children before the age of six, and how many children can sit still and cultivate a technique properly? Furthermore, everyone's talent differs, so the speed of cultivation will certainly vary greatly! Moreover, the time we have is very short; geniuses who can reach Innate Full Soul Power before awakening at age six are extremely rare! Even in our Immortal Court, only a dozen or so children awaken with Innate Full Soul Power each year."
"A dozen! Every year?" Dugu Yan's eyes widened.
"Yes, it is very few. Besides, many of them have consumed pills or heavenly treasures. Relying solely on the Dao Scripture to reach Innate Full Soul Power is nearly impossible."
"Oh~ that is still quite amazing!" Dugu Yan was becoming numb to the word 'few' in Ozka's mouth.
At this moment.
On the auction stage, after the commotion subsided, the host repeated Dugu Bo's refund promise before announcing the starting bid: 20 million Gold Soul Coins.
"Hiss~"
As soon as the starting bid was announced, another wave of gasps and sharp intakes of breath rippled through the room.
Ning Fengzhi regretted: "There really is a technique that can be cultivated before awakening a martial soul? Sigh~ I shouldn't have bought the 'Double-Barreled Rifle'. The value of the Dao Scripture is... priceless!"
Sword Douluo sighed and shook his head, his thoughts mirroring everyone else present!
Commoners without soul power can also cultivate?
What kind of heaven-defying technique is this?
If anyone mastered the Dao Scripture, they could establish an unprecedented sect at any time!
Creak~
Yue Guan pushed open his box window and shouted: "Old Poison, are your words true?"
"Hmph~ This old man does not have the leisure time to deceive you!"
"Good! Martial Soul Hall bids: 50 million Gold Soul Coins! Who agrees, and who opposes?"
Boom~ Yue Guan unleashed the pressure of a Title Douluo without restraint, using his power to suppress others! He forced everyone into silence.
But that did not include the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!
Ning Fengzhi smiled: "60 million Gold Soul Coins!"
Yue Guan's mouth twitched. Even if he were a fool, he could hear the meaning behind Ning Fengzhi's laughter: You made me overpay earlier, so now I am digging a pit for you!
Ultimately.
Martial Soul Hall won the Dao Scripture for 75 million Gold Soul Coins.
75 million Gold Soul Coins was equivalent to a top-tier soul bone, such as an eight or nine-ten-thousand-year dragon-type soul bone. It was second only to the value of a Hundred Thousand Year Soul Bone.
The host congratulated Martial Soul Hall as per custom, then brought out another technique: Yijin Jing!
"Everyone, the Yijin Jing has the effect of cleansing the marrow and improving a soul master's cultivation aptitude! Likewise, Dugu Bo stakes his reputation on an unconditional refund. However, do not play games with Dugu Bo! Otherwise, he will kill every single one of you! Everyone, the starting bid for the Yijin Jing is: 50 million Gold Soul Coins!"
Yue Guan nearly broke down, raging: "This technique is even better! Damn it!"
Fortunately, the Yijin Jing was eventually bought by Qian Renxue for 78 million Gold Soul Coins. Yue Guan thought to himself: I must go to the Tiandou Imperial Palace tonight to exchange the techniques with the Young Master!
As a veteran powerhouse and a trusted confidant of Bibi Dong, Yue Guan naturally knew the true identity of Crown Prince Xue Qinghe.
Meanwhile.
Feng Xiaodi and Ozka were discussing their plan to sneak into the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect tonight!
Dugu Bo asked, "Little brothers, would you like this old man to accompany you? I am quite familiar with the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect."
Feng Xiaodi waved his hand and said, "Many thanks, Senior, but we are just going for a look around. There won't be any danger."
Ozka picked up the conversation, adding, "Besides, mere Sword Douluo and Bone Douluo are no match for Feng Xiaodi!"
"Are you really that strong?" Dugu Yan exclaimed.
"I suppose so! I fought two Title Douluos before, and I nearly killed them by accident without even using my full strength."
Ozka continued, "Never mind Feng Xiaodi; as a level 62 Food-type Soul Emperor, I could even trade blows with the weakest Title Douluo in your world, and I might even be able to kill him!"
Dugu Bo: "..."
Who are you calling the weakest Title Douluo? Where are your manners?
