The Transformed Emerald Swan

After Chen Ping'an returned to the Tea House, Snake Lance Douluo was thoroughly frightened.

He looked at Chen Ping'an with extreme nervousness.

This was someone who could heavily injure even Qian Daoliu!

Qian Renxue said to Snake Lance Douluo, "You can leave first."

"This..."

Snake Lance Douluo hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did as told.

After Snake Lance Douluo left, Qian Renxue changed back into women's clothing.

"My grandfather... he's all right, isn't he?"

Qian Renxue had witnessed that battle as well.

Chen Ping'an patted Qian Renxue's head and smiled. "He's fine. He's still a level ninety-nine Peerless Douluo, after all."

"That's good." Qian Renxue let out a soft sigh of relief.

A level ninety-nine Peerless Douluo was immensely powerful. Unless a God Level expert took action, their life generally would not be in danger.

Qian Renxue looked at Chen Ping'an with complicated eyes, countless thoughts running through her mind. She had never expected Chen Ping'an to be so powerful that even her grandfather, Qian Daoliu, was no match for him.

"Um... I still want to increase my Soul Power..."

As she said this, the worry on her face vanished, replaced by a blush on her little face.

"Good, good, good."

Chen Ping'an gave a sinister chuckle.

The next day.

After Chen Ping'an returned to Skywater Academy, he heard that a large auction would be held that day.

The auction was being held at the Heaven Dou Auction House.

"Ping An Gege, are you going to today's auction?"

Zhu Zhuqing moved close and directly wrapped her arms around Chen Ping'an's arm.

With no other concerns weighing on her, Zhu Zhuqing was no longer as cold and aloof as before. Instead, she was far more lively and adorable.

It created an extreme sense of contrast.

Chen Ping'an looked at the cute and playful Zhu Zhuqing and said fondly, "I'm going."

Having lived two lives, he had never attended an auction before.

Today was just the right time.

"Yay!"

Just as the two left the dormitory, Bi Ji approached them head-on.

As for Bear Monarch, he had not come at all because his unique combat techniques and methods for increasing Soul Power had instantly turned him into a prized treasure at Skywater Academy, fought over by countless female students and even female teachers.

Even Skywater Academy's dean had gone to seek his guidance.

The other academies could only look on with envy.

"Ping An Gege, where are you going? I'm coming too."

With nothing to do, Bi Ji had been wandering around the academy. As she wandered, she arrived at Chen Ping'an's dormitory.

The moment she arrived, she heard that they were going to attend an auction. Her interest was immediately piqued, and she was extremely curious about the human world as well.

"Then let's go together."

One more person or one fewer made no difference. They were merely going to take a look around. If there was anything good, he could take it while he was at it.

The three soon arrived at the Heaven Dou Auction House.

Since Chen Ping'an was from Skywater Academy, he did not need any verification to enter the Heaven Dou Auction House.

This was entirely because Skywater Academy's status had already surpassed that of Heaven Dou Royal Academy.

Especially after Bear Monarch, Bi Ji, and Chen Ping'an joined it.

Skywater Academy's overall strength had become terrifyingly powerful.

After the royal family lost a Titled Douluo, they no longer dared to look down on Skywater Academy either.

After the three entered the Heaven Dou Auction House, a beautiful attendant led them to VIP Room No. 2.

There were only ten VIP rooms.

Aside from VIP Room No. 1, which was reserved, the other nine rooms were assigned according to the status of those entering.

Money alone was not enough to enter. There were only two requirements for these VIP rooms: first, one had to be a Titled Douluo; second, one's faction had to possess extraordinary status within the Heaven Dou Empire.

Skywater Academy happened to meet those requirements.

The moment Chen Ping'an entered the Heaven Dou Auction House, Qian Renxue in VIP Room No. 1 spotted him.

Especially when she saw Chen Ping'an accompanied by Zhu Zhuqing and Bi Ji, two stunning beauties, she could not help feeling a little jealous.

"So this is a human auction? It's rather novel."

After entering the VIP room, Bi Ji looked around. It was also her first time seeing such a scene, so she could not help losing her composure somewhat.

At that moment, the Soul Tool on the auction stage had been sold for sixty-six thousand seven hundred Gold Soul Coins.

Holding a loudspeaker, the host on the stage smiled at the bidders. "Next, we will be auctioning an exceptionally rare treasure. Interested guests, please pay close attention—especially our male guests."

As she spoke.

She gestured toward the area below the stage, and three powerfully built men pushed up a cart.

The cart was covered by a red cloth, concealing whatever was inside. Judging from its outline, it seemed to be a large square box.

The instant the cart was pushed onto the stage, Bi Ji's expression changed dramatically.

"The aura inside that box..."

She carefully sensed it. At first, it seemed unimportant, but the next moment, fury filled her face.

She rose to her feet and took several steps forward, staring fixedly at the box.

"That's one of my people!"

Chen Ping'an also stepped forward and used his spiritual power to sense it. Inside was a hundred-thousand-year Emerald Swan that had already transformed into human form.

"These people deserve to die!"

Bi Ji's fury surged to the heavens.

If this were not the human world, she would have already erupted and started killing.

Who said Bi Ji was merely a healing-type soul beast? Her cultivation had reached five hundred and eighty thousand years. Even an ordinary Super Douluo might not be her match.

"Enough. Since it's one of your people, I'll handle it for you."

Chen Ping'an patted Bi Ji's shoulder, signaling for her to return and sit properly.

He was determined to obtain this Emerald Swan.

The host said mysteriously, "Can everyone guess what this is? How about this? I'll first reveal the base price to our distinguished guests. The starting bid for this item is five hundred thousand Gold Soul Coins, and each increase must be no less than ten thousand Gold Soul Coins. This is a supreme treasure among supreme treasures. I'm sure all of you will like it."

As an auction house host, stirring up the atmosphere and the bidders' enthusiasm was clearly a required skill. She successfully drew the bidders' attention.

"Now, distinguished guests, please take a careful look."

As she spoke, the host grabbed the red cloth and violently tore it away.

After a flash of red light, what was revealed was not a box, but a massive iron cage.

Curled up inside the iron cage was a young girl.

Most of the girl's body was bare, with only her vital areas covered by simple coarse cloth. Since she was curled up, her appearance could not be seen clearly, but her figure was nearly perfect.

Her fair skin resembled lustrous jade, while her long pale-green hair possessed a unique charm.

"Perhaps our distinguished guests are wondering why such a young girl could have such a high base price, even higher than the beauties painstakingly trained by our auction house over the years. But if you look closely, you will discover what makes her special."

As she spoke, the host somehow produced a rod and thrust it into the iron cage, viciously poking the girl in the back.

The girl cried out in pain, and a pair of emerald-green wings spread from her back.

"I'm sure all of you have seen it now. This is a hundred-thousand-year soul beast transformed into human form, and this soul beast is an exceptionally rare Emerald Swan."

"As long as you win this soul beast, whether you want to make it into a soul ring or keep it as a pet, it is an excellent choice. Moreover, a hundred-thousand-year Emerald Swan can produce a soul bone too~"

In an instant, the atmosphere in the auction house reached its peak.

Godfathers, I'm sorry. I changed twelve thousand years to one hundred thousand years.
