Xu Jiawei and Xu Jiujiu used the auction of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast embryo to draw money and soul tools from the Sun Moon Empire, while Shrek Academy's students watched the expensive lots. The auction then revealed an Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone coveted by Meng Hongchen and Ling Luochеn, and Huo Yuhao recognized the claims about its power as a sales pitch.

• Xu Jiawei and Xu Jiujiu discussed their fabricated claim that the soul beast embryo could grant a second martial soul and hoped the auction would force the Sun Moon Empire to sell more soul tools.

• Huo Yuhao woke in the VIP seating and privately judged Xu Jiujiu's claims about the soul bone's power to be price-inflating bluster.

Huo Yuhao outbid everyone for an Ice Jade Scorpion soul bone, paying a hundred million Gold Soul Coins so Meng Hongchen could not win it for herself. After the soul bone sold, the auction introduced the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo, the treasure Huo Yuhao had come to acquire.

• Ling Luochеn and Meng Hongchen competed for the Ice Jade Scorpion soul bone, but both stopped bidding at twenty million Gold Soul Coins.

Huo Yuhao opened the God-Sealing Platform to absorb the Hundred-Thousand-Year Soul Beast Embryo, only to discover it contained the Snow Empress, a six-hundred-and-ninety-thousand-year Ferocious Beast. The Ice Empress recognized her and called to her as the Snow Empress began to awaken.

• The Snow Empress realized Huo Yuhao's complaint implied that he already had three martial souls and wondered whether such a thing could exist.

The Snow Empress explained how she had used a nearly hundred-thousand-year-old Ice Sky Snow Lotus to attempt a human transformation, only to be captured by humans and sealed in the God-Sealing Platform.
