Six Red, Three Orange—The Entire Audience Is Shocked!

There were still ten minutes until the auction officially began. Inside the auction house's highest-specification auction hall.

This was the Sun Moon Auction House's premier auction hall, covering over a thousand square meters. The hall was fan-shaped and lavishly decorated.

A semicircular auction stage with a radius of ten meters stood against the wall. Behind it was a huge square screen, while expensive soul tool lamps hung overhead.

The VIP seating was more than ten meters from the auction stage, arranged in a fan shape. Each seat had a small table beside it, laden with fine fruit and drinks.

The seats were spaced generously, without the slightest sense of crowding. The ten rows could accommodate up to two hundred people. Behind the VIP seats stood a row of VIP rooms.

There were ten VIP rooms in total, like shipping containers placed at the back in a fan-shaped arrangement. They all used one-way glass, making it impossible to see what was happening inside from outside.

The VIP seats were already full. Only one hundred people were actually participating in the auction; the other hundred were their friends or attendants.

After the two hundred people took their seats, they merely looked around in silence. No conversations could be heard, and the hall was very quiet.

Only the first hundred arrivals were allowed into the VIP seating area. Those who came late could not enter even if they had money.

Those able to enter this auction hall were all people of status and standing. They were naturally proud and valued etiquette, so they would not casually chat and disrupt the order. Two soul tool cameras were operating on each side of the hall, recording everything within the auction hall for live broadcasts across major platforms. To maintain order at the venue, the media were prohibited from entering and could only conduct interviews after the auction ended. Those who wanted to watch this auction could only do so through the official livestream jointly launched by the Sun Moon Auction House and Dragon Phoenix Hall; there were no other media channels. This livestream had drawn enormous attention. Before it even began, total viewership had already surpassed one billion, and people waited eagerly. The appearance of the Hundred Year Longevity Pill was nothing short of a massive medical revolution to people. It meant that extending one's lifespan was no longer a dream. Although this pill remained far beyond the reach of many people, that did not affect their interest in it. They all hoped that one day, the price of the pill would fall enough for them to afford it as well. Inside the auction hall.

A woman with an oval face, willow-leaf brows, delicate features, and light makeup stepped onto the auction stage. She wore a pale gold long dress. The moment she took the stage, she gave the crowd a slight bow, a smile remaining on her face as she said, "Welcome, everyone, to the Supreme Auction Hall of the Sun Moon Auction House."

"I am the auctioneer for today's event, Wan Wan. It is my honor to host today's auction for all our distinguished guests."

As she spoke, Wan Wan bowed to everyone once more. Her voice was pleasant, her manner composed, and her professional skills excellent.

Applause rose from the VIP seating. Wan Wan smiled as she swept her gaze across the room before continuing, "The auction will officially begin at four o'clock in the afternoon, Federation time. Before that, we have a brief warm-up session."

"This warm-up concerns the five Hundred Year Longevity Pills. I believe many people are curious about where these pills truly came from..."

At this point, Wan Wan paused. Seeing that everyone in the VIP seating had been piqued by her words, she smiled in satisfaction and continued, "Next, we will reveal the answer to all our distinguished guests and the people of the entire Federation."

"I believe many friends watching the livestream have already made some guesses. That's right, the source of these pills is Dragon Phoenix Hall, which is jointly hosting this livestream with us."

"Now, let us welcome Dragon Phoenix Hall's Deputy Hall Master, Lord Yun Tian, to present the highly anticipated longevity pills and deliver a speech."

Wan Wan looked toward a small door on the right side of the auction hall. Everyone's gaze, including the livestream cameras, turned toward that door. "Creak..." The small door slowly opened automatically, and Di Tian appeared before everyone. He stood over two meters tall, with a muscular build, a straight back, and simple black clothes. With his hands clasped behind his back, Di Tian showed no change in expression as everyone looked at him. He slowly walked toward the auction stage. The rhythmic hum of soul rings sounded. With every step he took, a soul ring rose—red, red, red...

When the first red soul ring rose, someone's eyes widened. But when the ones that followed were still red soul rings, many people opened their mouths in shock. Those watching the livestream were dumbfounded and instinctively blurted out a simple two-word expletive of praise. Soon, those two words flooded the livestream chat, dense as ants swarming across the ground. Some soul masters in the VIP seating had already risen to their feet. Like ordinary people, they stared at Di Tian's soul rings in disbelief, their breathing unusually rapid. In the VIP rooms behind them, some powerful figures could no longer remain seated. They had already stood and moved to the glass windows to observe. If it had only been red soul rings, these important figures could still have accepted it. But when they saw the three orange soul rings behind them, even they changed expression. "Orange... Ferocious Beast Soul Rings." Yun Ming's voice was somewhat heavy. At some point, his brows had furrowed as he stared fixedly at Di Tian and those nine soul rings. The VIP room he occupied directly faced the auction stage and was the most distinguished among the VIP rooms. There was another room directly opposite it beside it. Only the four from Shrek were in the room; they had not allowed any attendants to stay inside and serve them.

"This is the first time I've seen such an outrageous soul ring configuration," Feng Wuyu said gravely, stunned by the arrangement. Ever since the Spirit Ascension Platform came into existence, the overall age of soul masters' soul rings had greatly increased. Thousand-year first soul rings, even ten-thousand-year ones, were no longer rare. His own soul ring configuration was four purple, four black, and one red. His eldest brother's was even more exaggerated, beginning with black, with several Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast rings. Yet even that had not reached the level of beginning with red, with at least two-hundred-thousand-year Ferocious Beast Soul Rings. Beside him, Zhuo Shi nodded with a grave expression. Long Yeyue, who stood beside Yun Ming, revealed a look of astonishment. "Sister Yue, what is it?" Yun Ming looked at Long Yeyue beside him. It was the first time he had seen Sister Yue display such an expression. "Yun Tian's soul rings weren't provided by Soul Spirits. They were... real soul rings," Long Yeyue said, her tone filled with disbelief. The moment those words were spoken, Zhuo Shi and Feng Wuyu both changed expression sharply. Yun Ming's pupils contracted as he carefully examined those nine soul rings. "They really are nine soul rings," Yun Ming said in shock, emphasizing the words "soul rings." His heart was far from calm. Six Red Three Orange soul rings provided by Soul Spirits and genuine Six Red Three Orange soul rings were entirely different concepts. Now that soul beasts had nearly been hunted to extinction by humans, let alone Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beasts, even true ten-thousand-year soul beasts were difficult to encounter. There were still some in the Star Dou Great Forest, but they had all been confined by the Spirit Pagoda for future experiments and were not allowed to be obtained. Ten-thousand-year soul beast rings were already difficult to acquire, let alone hundred-thousand-year and two-hundred-thousand-year Ferocious Beast Soul Rings. He truly could not understand where this man's nine soul rings had come from. Had he wiped out every one of those in the Star Dou Great Forest? At that thought, Yun Ming's heart skipped a beat. He felt it was impossible, yet at the same time, it somehow seemed like a plausible explanation. He fell into conflicted thoughts.
