Everyone knew that martial souls were determined at birth. What you were born with was what you had.
Their quality could possibly be improved later on—for instance, by consuming heavenly treasures, or through a fortuitous encounter like Ye Luochen's, which could raise one's Innate Soul Power.
Some could even undergo a postnatal evolution. Tang San, ten thousand years ago, had evolved from a weak Blue Silver Grass into the powerful Blue Silver Emperor.
Yet throughout ten thousand years of history, there seemed to have never been any record of the number of martial souls increasing after birth.
That was why Twin Martial Souls were held in such high regard across the continent.
One extra martial soul meant nine additional soul ring slots. The upper limit was far, far higher than that of a single martial soul.
But now, if they obtained this Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast embryo, they might gain the possibility of adding another martial soul?!
Who could remain calm before such a treasure?
If the auction house had not displayed sufficient strength and backing earlier, someone would likely have already lashed out and tried to seize it by force.
Not only had the other private rooms begun furiously raising their bids, but Elder Ma, who had originally been waiting to watch the tigers fight from the mountain, could no longer maintain his composure. With a wave of his hand, he directly bid one hundred million Gold Soul Coins—the highest offer in the entire venue.
The prospect of gaining an additional martial soul was simply too tempting for someone from the Sun Moon Empire like him.
The Sun Moon Empire possessed Soul Tool technology hundreds, even thousands of years ahead of the Original Three Kingdoms. Compared to this side, it was practically modern society against the Stone Age—far too advanced.
