"This..."

The blush on her face lingered for Xu Jiujiu, and her posture became increasingly shy.

Gu Yunxiao truly met her requirements for a partner, and even exceeded them, which was really tempting.

"Give it a try, you're not a kid anymore."

Xu Jiawei smiled and said, "Or, you could like your elder brother to arrange a marriage for you, but the other person won't be as outstanding as Gu Yunxiao."

"Then... then I'll give it a try." Xu Jiujiu silence, she lowered her head and responded in a voice barely audible.

Xu Jiawei nodded slightly, a look of satisfaction appearing in his eyes.

Firstly, he genuinely hoped his younger sister could find a good husband.

Secondly, if they could bring Gu Yunxiao onto the Star Luo Empire's warship, it would be equivalent to bringing the Dragon God Hall into their camp.

Whether it succeeds or fails, only Jiujiu will tell.

Dusk.

The first day of the competition has ended, but we haven't even completed a third of the Round-Robin Tournament stage yet; there are still two weeks left.

It's worth mentioning that, apart from the match between the Dragon God Team and the Zheng Tian Team, which was quite exciting, the other rounds in today's Round-Robin Tournament were rather mediocre, even less so than the first round of elimination matches.

This is normal; the Round-Robin Tournament is more about tactical planning, and each group has two qualifying spots.

"Knock knock knock."

Gu Yunxiao and his companions, who were resting at the Hotel, heard a knock on the door.

Tang Ya was closest to the door, stood up, walked to the door, and opened it with a slightly puzzled look. There stood a beautiful woman in a purple dress.

"Who are you?"

Tang Ya looked puzzled.

"Hello, I'm Qing Ya from Starlight Auction House. There's an auction tonight, and this is the invitation. If you're interested, please come and take a look."

With Qing Ya smile, she handed over a gold-embossed invitation.

In reality, only a few well-known Team received a special invitation from Starlight Auction House; most other Team had to find their own channels.

An auction?

At this moment, Gu Yunxiao and the others also came over and came to Tang Ya's side.

Upon seeing Gu Yunxiao, Qing Ya's eyes lit up slightly, but she didn't lose her composure and continued to smile, "Yes, today's auction is still a special auction for Soul Tool."

"Because only Soul Tool below level six are auctioned, it can only be considered a level four auction."

"An auction for Soul Tool..." Tang Ya's eyes were somewhat unnatural, showing a hint of repulsion.

If it weren't for the rise of Soul Tool, the Tang Sect wouldn't have declined so quickly.

Of course, she also knew that it was Tang Sect's own fault for being incompetent, and they couldn't blame anyone else.

"That's interesting. Let's go check it out tonight."

Gu Yunxiao said.

"Then we'll look forward to welcoming our distinguished guests!" Qing Ya smiled, then gently closed the door for Gu Yunxiao and the others before leaving.

"Rejection of Soul Tool?"

In the living room, Gu Yunxiao quietly watched Tang Ya.

Tang Ya hesitated for a moment, then nodded. "A little."

I have a task for you.

Gu Yunxiao took a sip of tea and said calmly, "Accept the Soul Tool, and learn how to use it, combining it with Hidden Weapon."

"The Dragon God Hall now needs a signature Soul Tool of its own. You've already mastered the complete Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record, so this shouldn't be difficult for you."

The Dragon God Hall is no longer short of genius Soul Master, but it lacks Soul Tool.

To put it another way, genius Soul Master represent the present, while Soul Tool represent the future.

Gu Yunxiao's requirement for the Dragon God Hall is definitely continuous development, unlike some forces that experience dramatic rises and falls, eventually disappearing altogether.

"I... I tried my best."

Tang Ya replied.

Gu Yunxiao remained silent, quietly watching Tang Ya.

Under such intense scrutiny, Tang Ya felt a chill run down her spine and nodded frantically like a chick pecking at rice. "I will definitely complete the mission!"

"Um."

Gu Yunxiao nodded and continued drinking his tea.

He was naturally interested in tonight's auction.

The Gold of Life must be taken back.

Night fell quickly.

Gu Yunxiao led the seven people away from the Starlight Auction House, and changed his clothes along the way, into a more common black hooded robe and a black mask with gold trim.

The group headed to the Starlight Auction House.

What appears to be an unassuming little building actually holds a hidden secret: the vast underground space is where the real auction house is located.

Led by a woman, Gu Yunxiao and his group arrived at Auction Hall No. 12 and found a seat.

Gradually, more and more people arrived.

Although not the entire Auction Hall 12 was full, it was about two-thirds full.

"Welcome, distinguished guests, to the Starlight Auction House. I am Qing Ya, a Purple-level auctioneer, and I will be hosting today's auction."

Her Qing Ya voice was beautiful and pleasant to listen to; her appearance was dignified and beautiful; her figure was graceful and her movements were elegant and graceful.

For an auctioneer, ability is not the primary criterion; appearance and demeanor are.

Beautiful women can often induce impulsive purchases by some easily swayed men, thereby driving up the bidding prices of items at auction.

This tactic isn't limited to auctions; it can be used in other situations as well.

"Today's auction is a special session for Soul Tool."

"The items up for auction are all Soul Tool below level six, suitable for Soul King and Soul Engineer Soul Master that Soul King."

"Furthermore, to ensure our distinguished guests have a worthwhile trip, we have prepared a grand finale gift. Interested guests should not miss it!"

"The auction is now officially open. Please welcome the staff to present today's first item."

Qing Ya first introduced the auction, then gestured for the staff to bring out the items, which were pushed up by two women in red dresses on a small cart.

To maintain an air of mystery, the item was covered with a beautiful cloth.

As the cloth was lifted, the items to be auctioned were revealed.

This Soul Tool is rectangular, one foot long, and engraved with intricate patterns. It is an offensive Soul Tool used on the arm.

"This level-three attack Soul Tool can release Soul Guidance Ray..."

Qing Ya introduced the information about this Soul Tool, and then gave a competition result.

The starting bid is 1,000 Gold Soul Coin, and each bid must be at least 50 Gold Soul Coin higher.

No sooner had Qing Ya's voice fallen than someone raised their bidding paddle. "Thirteen hundred Gold Soul Coin!"

"One thousand five hundred Gold Soul Coin!"

"One thousand five hundred and fifty Gold Soul Coin!"

"One thousand seven hundred Gold Soul Coin!"

Many people started bidding, and the price rose all the way to two thousand Gold Soul Coin before the bidding gradually subsided and the intensity decreased.

After all, this was only the first item up for auction.

"Two thousand five hundred Gold Soul Coin!"

Suddenly, a familiar voice came from another corner.

Gu Yunxiao glanced at them and, with his powerful perception, easily saw through their disguises; they were the Shrek Team.

"Yunxiao, should we buy this?" Jiang Nannan asked.

"Buy it, money's no object."

Gu Yunxiao smiled, raised the plaque, and said calmly, "Three Gold Soul Coin."

Gold Soul Coin?

The Dragon God Hall truly has everything it needs.

Moreover, the purpose of these Gold Soul Coin is for trading; it's more practical to spend them on buying something rather than keeping them in your possession.

Of course, the most important thing is that the Dragon God Hall is currently quite good at making money.
