After the Yunluo Academy's Shang Yue was unfortunately eliminated, they had no choice but to send another male student to the competition stage.
The male student's name was Situ Yu. At this moment, his expression was somewhat serious, and he even seemed to have given up on himself.
After all, his teammates' repeated defeats undoubtedly severely dampened his fighting spirit.
"The match begins!"
With the referee's command, Situ Yu transformed into Soul Tool Turret, its dark muzzle aimed at Ling Luochеn.
Four Soul Ring rose rapidly from beneath his feet and then enveloped the Soul Tool Turret.
With a "hum", a continuous stream of Soul Power was injected into the Soul Tool, and intense Soul Power fluctuations emanated from the cannon barrel.
In no time at all, several beams of light hurtled toward Ling Luochеn at lightning speed.
Holding the ice staff, Ling Luochеn lightly tapped his toes and leaped into the air, nimbly dodging the attacks fired from the Soul Tool Turret.
However, Situ Yu was still not giving up and continued to change direction, constantly locking onto Ling Luochеn who was leaping in the air.
"Damn it! I'm always just a little bit short." Almost every attack from Situ Yu just barely missed his opponent, or was successfully blocked by Ling Luochеn, basically causing no damage at all.
This made Situ Yu feel frustrated. Were all the Shrek students that strong?
However, this only fueled his fighting spirit. He chuckled to himself. As for the outcome of the match? His dual pistols would provide the answer.
However, Ling Luochеn was in mid-air, seemed to have had enough fun, and then waved his ice staff, and the Soul Ring on his back lit up.
Upon closer inspection, one will notice that her facial expression remains as aloof as ever.
"It's time for you to step down." Snowflakes began to fall from the sky, Ling Luochеn pointed her ice staff at Situ Yu.
Suddenly, the Soul Tool Turret that Situ Yu had transformed into turned into a large ice sculpture, like a hard cage that firmly trapped him inside.
After a great deal of effort, he finally broke through the hard ice shell, and it seemed that Ling Luochеn was about to unleash his Soul Skill.
Situ Yu hurriedly shouted, "We're stopping! Yunluo Academy concedes!" The three of them were already the strongest players in the Yunluo Academy, and the rest of them were only at the level of a three-ring Soul Elder, so they had no chance of winning.
Therefore, admitting defeat in advance is better for everyone.
Only then did Ling Luochеn put away his ice staff and slowly descend from mid-air to the ground.
Shrek Academy wins!
A thunderous cheer finally erupted after the referee's announcement.
Yunluo Academy has conceded defeat, which means Shrek Academy has once again won the match.
After Ling Luochеn returned, Wang Yan stood up and said, "Let's go back." With that, he turned and walked out first.
Immediately afterwards, the Shrek Academy team left Star Luo Plaza under the watchful eyes of the crowd.
Two days later, time flew by.
The first round of the lap race has now successfully concluded, and the second round will begin tomorrow.
Tonight, Wang Yan brought everyone to the auction house to relax.
It was a building with a pointed roof, and everyone stopped in front of it.
The building is not particularly eye-catching; compared to the surrounding tall buildings, although it is not small in size, it is not particularly prominent.
Above the main entrance hangs a sign with a hammer image, beneath which appears to be a golden tabletop pattern.
The auction was hosted by Qing Ya was dressed in purple.
Cao Yu felt that the only highlight of the auction was the auctioneer, Qing Ya.
After all, the items being auctioned today are rather ordinary.
Qing Ya brought down the small wooden hammer and said softly, "To ensure that all our distinguished guests have a worthwhile trip, we have one last mysterious grand prize to auction. Don't miss it!"
"Our auction is now beginning. Please have our staff present today's first item."
Then Qing Ya slowly began to introduce it, and from her words everyone realized that this Soul Tool was no ordinary item.
After all, the ray attached to this Soul Tool can paralyze Soul King, which is quite practical for a low-end Soul Tool.
"Bidding price is 1000 Gold Soul Coin, with each bid increasing by at least 50 Gold Soul Coin. The bidding begins now."
The auction for this Soul Tool became quite lively, and the price was quickly driven up to over two thousand Gold Soul Coin.
Finally Cao Yu slowly raised the bidding paddle in his hand and won the bid at a price of 10,000 Gold Soul Coin. He did want to bid higher, but malicious bidding was not allowed.
Each item in the auction has a price cap. If the price exceeds this cap, bidders will think that the auction is paid for by shills, which will result in a significant loss of visitors and will not benefit the auction house. Therefore, there is an unwritten rule about this.
As a purple-level auctioneer, she was naturally very happy to see the first item sold for a high price.
Qing Ya then quickly announced the bidding for the second item.
"This item is Soul Tool Milk Bottle; I'm sure everyone is quite familiar with this type of Soul Tool."
" Milk Bottle, as the name suggests, are used for drinking milk, but for Soul Master and Soul Engineer, they are used to replenish Soul Power. Of course, I must say that breastfeeding is still the best."
Qing Ya's words instantly brought the atmosphere in the auction hall to a fever pitch, and she laughed shakily, her majestic breasts perfectly confirming the statement.
The bidders below couldn't help but burst into laughter, their eyes constantly scanning Qing Ya, unwilling to look away.
"I won't say much more. Let's begin the auction. The starting price is six Gold Soul Coin, and each bid must be at least one hundred Gold Soul Coin higher."
Before long, the price of this Soul Tool plummeted to over 20,000.
When Cao Yu offered 25,000, one of the people in the room was still stubbornly arguing with him.
Everyone inside was wearing a mask, so it was impossible to tell who he was.
However, Cao Yu naturally wouldn't bother with him; he was more than happy that someone was bidding against him.
"Thirty thousand!" This was Cao Yu's final price. The other person wisely withdrew from the auction for the Soul Tool, and Cao Yu shook his head in disappointment at his withdrawal.
The auction continued, and the final mysterious item, covered by a red cloth, was slowly unveiled by Qing Ya.
This is the Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife, which ranks highly on the Carving Knife Ranking.
" The Spirit-Devouring Carving Knife, starting bid 100,000 Gold Soul Coin, minimum increment 5,000 Gold Soul Coin. Distinguished guests, you may now begin bidding."
"Five hundred thousand, I'll take this carving knife!"
After one night, Cao Yu had acquired all the auction items. Through this whole ordeal, and with the Tenfold Cashback, he only earned about 5.4 million.
If you want to make a fortune, you'll have to wait and see at the auction in a couple of weeks. What we're doing now is just an appetizer.
" Teacher Wang, please take these Soul Tool." Cao Yu had several Soul Tool in his hand that he had bought for Wang Yan. He said it was to fulfill the concept of matching Soul Master with Soul Tool, but the Inner Court disciples didn't think much of him.
However, Cao Yu still thought highly of Wang Yan's ideas. His willingness to accept new things and change the status quo was a spirit worth learning from Wang Yan.
