Overtaking

"No need."

Bai Cai, sparing with words, said, "Please let us choose for ourselves."

"Alright." The maid in the long dress bowed and then left.

"Xiao Xiao, Soul Bone Area. Me, Pill Area. Wang Dong, Treasure Area."

Bai Cai explained, "When we find something valuable, we don't distinguish between them; we just order it and pay together, with any overpayment refunded and any underpayment collected."

The treasures for sale are first come, first served; if someone else buys the treasure that suits you, it will be too late to regret it.

"Um, Captain, Wang Dong and I..."

Xiao Xiao paused for a moment, then suddenly repeated, "Wang Dong?"

A beautiful young girl dressed as a man pointed to the Soul Bone area and said, "Light, pure light."

Its light attribute is so pure that it is close to that of the Light Goddess Butterfly.

Such Soul Bone appearing at the Treasure Appreciation Fair of core disciples is nothing short of a miracle.

Soul Master with the Light attribute are one in ten thousand.

Soul Beast with the attribute of light are extremely rare.

The probability of a thousand-year-old Soul Beast producing Soul Bone is only one in ten thousand, and the probability of Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast producing Soul Bone is only one in a hundred.

Its appearance at the Treasure Appreciation Fair of core disciples—wasn't it fate?

"We'll talk about other things later."

Bai Cai remained calm and composed, saying, "We must secure the Soul Bone; once we miss this opportunity, we'll regret it."

The butterfly effect of fate seems to have a limited sphere of influence.

Although the Star Luo Empire and the Star Dou Great Forest are adjacent, there are few roads between them. There is only one safe route through the Star Dou Great Forest to the Shrek Academy.

Other routes either have frequent appearances of high-level Soul Beast or are frequented by notorious bandits.

The start date of school was no secret, and encountering Bei Bei and Tang Ya was perhaps the inevitable outcome of a series of coincidences.

The timing of Wang Dong's arrival is a definite event, while the timing of Huo Yuhao's arrival has become a random event due to the disturbances already caused.

The eddies created by a butterfly flapping its wings are enough to disrupt the balance of the atmosphere.

He disliked Bei Bei and Tang Ya, and his Soul Hunting failed, so he went ahead. Bei Bei and Tang Ya, on the other hand, had to consider Huo Yuhao, and thus fell behind.

Dormitory partners are not completely random, but follow certain patterns, such as pairing up in the morning and evening, and having older students mentor newer ones.

The trainees who report on the first day will all have the chance to share a dormitory with Wang Dong. This is both a coincidence and an inevitability. Like a butterfly flapping its wings, everything begins to change.

Wang Dong has a domineering personality and will definitely clash with his roommates, whether they are disciples of a sect, descendants of nobles, or commoner geniuses.

Team members from the same dormitory were given priority. Huo Yuhao was weak and could not make it into the top eight. He showed his talent and attracted the attention of the academy.

The Mirror Shadow Beast inhabit the edge of the Extreme North. Soul Engineer from the Sun Moon Empire entered the Extreme North, Ice Mountain Snow Lotus attracted the Soul Beast race, including the Snow Empress and the Ice Empress.

I once thought that my predetermined fate had changed and was unpredictable, but in most cases, things have remained unchanged.

As expected, the disturbances are not increasing linearly. As things stand, if we stop interfering, the situation on the mainland will not change within two years.

The time I have for myself, though not much, is not insignificant either.

The target was quite close, so the three turned to the other side and immediately spotted a Soul Bone.

The Soul Bone floated above the display stand, its golden-red color resembling an arm bone, its golden-red light shining brightly, exuding nobility and majesty.

A clear description was displayed in front of the booth. Wang Dong glanced at it and read it concisely, "Golden Radiance Left Arm Bone, produced by the Golden Earth Dragon King with ten thousand years of cultivation. Its bloodline is inherited from the Light Dragon Clan. It is speculated to possess the Flame of Light and is predicted to be associated with an offensive Soul Skill. Price: 9.5 million Gold Soul Coin."

Xiao Xiao was stunned. Nine million five hundred thousand Gold Soul Coin —truly an astronomical price.

Limb Soul Bone are the most common. Even the best limb Soul Bone, such as the right arm bone produced by Ten-Thousand-Year Soul Beast, are auctioned for less than three million Gold Soul Coin.

The left arm bone produced by the Ten-Thousand-Year Earth Dragon is being sold for a staggering 9.5 million Gold Soul Coin —it's practically robbery!

"The price is inflated; it's probably for use at the venue and has no hope of being sold, hence the exorbitant price."

Bai Cai commented, "Earth dragons and true dragons are completely different concepts. True dragons are all elemental dragons, such as water dragons and Fire Dragon, while earth dragons are all offspring of true dragons."

"Offspring with bloodlines below the top tier are called Earth Dragons; those with bloodlines above the top tier are called True Dragons."

"The Golden Earth Dragon, with a bloodline inheritance of above-average quality, is called the Golden Earth Dragon King. It requires at least 30,000 years of cultivation."

"To call Golden Earth Dragon less than 30,000 years old the Golden Earth Dragon King is an exaggeration."

The claims of a "Golden Earth Dragon King" and "pure bloodline" are all just marketing ploys to inflate the price. Even considering the true dragon bloodline, the actual price of the Golden Radiance would be less than half the listed price.

The Light attribute is extremely rare, and the Golden Radiance's collectible value is even higher than its practical value. The Treasure Pavilion has no intention of selling the Golden Radiance.

The golden radiance was displayed on the stand primarily to highlight its rarity and showcase the immense wealth of the Treasure Pavilion, hence the rather extravagant price tag.

After the Treasure Appreciation Fair ends, a private transaction can reduce the price by half. With the added discount of a 40% bonus from a Red-level VIP card, up to three million Gold Soul Coin, you can definitely buy the Golden Radiance.

Of course, this is all predicated on the absence of competition.

"Senior Brother Bei Bei, that Soul Bone is a perfect match?"

Huo Yuhao quickly caught up with Bei Bei and happened to catch a glimpse of the front of the booth, then froze.

Wang Dong's eyes burned with intensity, but not with fighting spirit; rather, they were fixed on the area above the display stand, a mixture of eagerness and hope.

"Well, because..."

Bei Bei swallowed her words, then followed Huo Yuhao's gaze and saw Bai Cai and her group.

The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon has been divided into multiple lineages. The orthodox lineage comes from the sect, but his lineage comes from outside the sect.

Ten thousand years ago, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon was wiped out, leaving only a few branch members. These branch members either united to rebuild the sect, died alone with no hope of revenge, or broke away from the sect to establish their own sect.

Tang San's teacher, the first generation of the Radiant Sacred Dragon, Yu Xiaogang, was Bei Bei's ancestor.

Yu Xiaogang's branch is exceptionally talented, even capable of Second Awakening, and the Radiant Sacred Dragon will reappear.

Bei Bei's talent is inferior to Mu En's. Mu En was born a Holy Dragon, while Bei Bei has already become Soul Ancestor and has just begun his Second Awakening.

If one absorbs this Soul Bone, they will definitely be able to fully awaken before reaching the Seven-Ring Soul Sage.

"Golden Radiance Left Arm Bone, produced by a ten-thousand-year-old Golden Earth Dragon, a bloodline inheritance of the Light Dragon Clan, worth nine and a half million Gold Soul Coin."

Bei Bei turned forward, saw the booth description, and her expression turned serious.

His background is extraordinary; he's certainly not some naive fool. The awkward positioning of the "Golden Radiance" and the resulting inflated price are obvious at a glance.

The Treasure Appreciation Fair naturally came to an end, and a private transaction was undoubtedly the best option. However, it seems that Wang Dong's side had already gotten there first.

"Yuhao, can I borrow your VIP card for a bit? I'll pay you back later."

Bei Bei Sound Transmission, seeking Huo Yuhao's consent.

His VIP card is currently at the purple level, with an outstanding credit limit of 100,000 Gold Soul Coin. Even with other deposits, he still cannot pay it off on the spot.

"Senior Brother Bei Bei, your kindness is beyond repayment. What is a VIP card compared to that?"

Huo Yuhao was extremely nervous and hurriedly handed over a red card.

Being able to Return gratitude is already a stroke of luck, but the added blow to Wang Dong creates a bittersweet mix of emotions, a taste as sweet as honey.
