Auction House

What an incredible reward!

Soul Power, Soul Bones—and the Soul Bone was even designated.

Amazing!

Most importantly, it was exactly three levels of Soul Power. Once he completed this mission, he could become a Soul Saint.

But how was he supposed to find this person named Yun Piaopiao?

He could not help looking at Hua Qingluo. The Hua Family was the local powerhouse of Noble Wind City!

It should not be difficult for them to find someone, right?

Just then, in front of the wall opposite the Hua Residence that Dongfang Yuanchen had smashed down,

stood a short-haired youth in shorts.

After the onlookers had dispersed,

he stared at the wall, now reduced to rubble, along with the craters before the Hua Residence and the cracked bluestone ground.

His eyes were full of amazement. "Damn. That's awesome!"

"Si Tingxuan, when I first heard your name, I thought you were nothing special. But now it seems you really are Invincible at the Same Rank!"

"With such a powerful and protective teacher, and he's so handsome too... That really is... bliss!"

At that thought, his expression suddenly darkened. "If he backed me up, I could avenge my brother, right? I could definitely take back my brother's things too!"

Then he thought of his own talent.

He could not help shaking his head. Although his martial soul was somewhat special,

his talent was simply too poor—only innate rank five!

How could a mentor as extraordinarily talented as Si Tingxuan possibly accept him as a disciple?

In the end, he could only laugh at himself.

Yet he muttered, "Why do I suddenly feel a little envious?"

"Ah, forget it. I'm probably not fortunate enough."

"But I must avenge my brother, and I must take back his things, even if I have to gamble my life on it!"

Time passed quickly!

In the blink of an eye, it was the next day.

After arranging training assignments for Long Wu and Hua Qingluo,

he walked out of the Hua Family.

The Hua Family had spent the entire previous day searching, yet they had not found a single trace of Yun Piaopiao.

It was simply unbelievable!

Whether locals or outsiders,

they had searched through nearly everyone, yet could not find anyone named Yun Piaopiao.

Logically speaking, that should have been impossible!

The Hua Family was deeply rooted in Noble Wind City. Finding someone should have taken no more than a word.

After thinking it over, there was only one possibility: that person was in the Oriental Family.

After all, the Oriental Family was the only one in town they had not searched.

Si Tingxuan could not help feeling a headache coming on. He had just beaten two Soul Emperors from the Oriental Family half to death yesterday.

If he went to the Oriental Family again today, he did not even know how to bring it up!

Could he just ask, "Do you have someone named Yun Piaopiao in your family?"

It would be fine if they did, but what if they did not? What would they think?

That he had come to provoke them?

The Oriental Family alone would have been one thing, but people from the Zhao Family were there too!

They had just arranged a battle yesterday!

Starting trouble now would not be appropriate!

Sigh.

This was troublesome!

"Have you heard? The Auction House in our little shabby town is actually auctioning off a thousand-year Soul Bone today!"

"No way! Is that true? Our tiny town has a Soul Bone?"

"Is the person auctioning it an idiot? In this little town, forget a thousand-year Soul Bone—even a ten-thousand-year one could not fetch a good price!"

"You don't understand. Soul Bones are extremely rare, and no two are nearly the same. You could say every Soul Bone is one of a kind."

"What do you mean by that? Don't tell me the Soul Bone's origins are questionable?"

"Obviously. If there were no problem with its origins, who would be stupid enough to come all the way here to auction a Soul Bone? Even if it's only a thousand-year one."

Si Tingxuan froze.

A Soul Bone?

What a rare sight!

Just as they had said, how could a Soul Bone possibly be auctioned in such a small town?

Unless its origins were truly questionable.

For example, someone had been killed for it!

And the person killed had to have had quite a background!

That was why they did not dare risk auctioning it in a major city.

They could only endure a massive loss and auction it in this remote little town!

There was also a Soul Bone in the Space Package given to him by the system!

It had not meant much before, but now that Soul Bones had come up, he could not help becoming curious.

After all, it was a random Soul Bone. What type it would be depended entirely on luck.

"System, I want to claim the Soul Bone!"

System: "Randomizing. Please wait!"

"Ding! Host has obtained the Six Myriad Illusion Eyes! Mental-type external soul bone!"

A mental-type Soul Bone?

And an external soul bone?

His luck was too good!

Unfortunately, it did not suit him!

He did not have a mental-type martial soul!

Should he go take a look at the Auction House?

I'm the number one genius of the Baroque Kingdom and the youngest mentor at Odd Weapons Academy.

For someone of my status to have never refined even a single Soul Bone would be a little embarrassing!

The key was that he had no clues about Yun Piaopiao right now. He had no idea where to begin looking.

He might as well go to the Auction House. If that Soul Bone suited him, he could buy it outright!

Auctioning a Soul Bone in a small town was definitely a major event that happened only once in several decades.

It would certainly draw a great many people.

Perhaps Yun Piaopiao was among them as well!

Having made his decision, Si Tingxuan immediately changed direction and headed for the Auction House.

When he arrived at the Auction House, a guard immediately stopped him and said softly, "Admission fee: one Gold Soul Coin!"

Si Tingxuan glanced over the endless stream of people.

He smiled faintly. This Auction House was truly ruthless!

One Gold Soul Coin per person—just the admission fees alone would earn them quite a lot!

However, Si Tingxuan was not short on such a small amount of money.

He reached into his clothes, took out a Gold Soul Coin, and handed it over.

After entering the Auction House, he discovered that it was already packed to the brim.

Most of the people here had never seen a Soul Bone before, so they had merely spent one Gold Soul Coin to broaden their horizons.

The people who had truly come to bid were all seated in the Auction House's VIP Rooms.

At that moment, in one of the VIP Rooms at the very center, a man and two women sat with dark expressions.

Faint killing intent flickered in their eyes.

The woman in purple on the left clenched her fists tightly, clearly trying her best to restrain her killing intent. "Big Brother, are they really auctioning Xiao Hai's Soul Bone?"

The man tapped the armrest of his chair irregularly.

He was clearly extremely anxious as well.

The woman in white on the other side said, "Sister, stop asking. Big Brother must be quite certain, or he would not have brought us here to chase after it. Just endure it a little longer. Once the Soul Bone is brought out, everything will become clear."

Smack!

Upon hearing that, the woman in purple slammed her hand heavily onto the armrest of her chair.

With that single strike,

cracks appeared in the ironwood armrest, showing that her strength was not to be underestimated.

Finally, she gritted her teeth and said, "If it really is Xiao Hai's Soul Bone, we'll massacre this place!"

The man barked softly, "Nonsense. We must avenge Xiao Hai, but we cannot act recklessly."

There were at least a hundred people in the Auction House right now. Massacre them all?

What a joke!
