Bibi Dong fixed her beautiful eyes on the King of Slaughter, staring intently at him.
Her intuition told her that something was wrong with the King of Slaughter, very wrong!
After some thought, Bibi Dong realized what was wrong with him.
Any Soul Master would be tempted by the Martial Soul Evolution Pill up for auction, and powerful Soul Masters were no exception. If Qian Daoliu hadn't wanted it, Bibi Dong would have bid on it long ago.
Bibi Dong knew how powerful the King of Slaughter was. He was definitely no weaker than her; he was stronger.
Yet a Soul Master as powerful as him hadn't bid on the Martial Soul Evolution Pill, which could let a Soul Master's Martial Soul evolve. That was plainly twelve parts wrong out of ten.
Just as Bibi Dong was pondering why the King of Slaughter hadn't bid on the Martial Soul Evolution Pill, Lin Yuan walked over to the second glass case.
"Next is the second item in this auction."
As Lin Yuan's words fell, he whipped the red silk cloth off the glass case with one hand, revealing the item inside to one pair of eyes after another.
It was a suit of armor as black as ink.
Unlike ordinary armor, it had more than just shoulder guards, arm guards, leg guards, boots, and a breastplate. It also had a headband, a waist guard, a battle skirt, and wings.
If a Soul Master from twenty thousand years in the future had been there, they would have recognized it at a glance. It wasn't ordinary armor, but Battle Armor, something tremendously important to Soul Masters!
Not only was it Battle Armor, but it was also a Four-Word Full-Set Battle Armor specially made by the system!
Its name was the Black God Set!
As the Ice Empress, whose true form was the Ice Jade Emperor Scorpion, looked at the item, she said, "Human-style armor? It looks like this item has nothing to do with us Soul Beasts either."
When the Ice Empress finished speaking, Lin Yuan's voice rang out. "Not necessarily."
After answering the Ice Empress, Lin Yuan continued, the smile still on his face.
This time, Lin Yuan spoke for no other reason than to introduce the item.
"In your eyes, this item is a suit of armor. But I would say it isn't armor. It's Battle Armor, far more powerful and formidable than ordinary armor."
Lin Yuan's words piqued Zhu Zhuyun's curiosity. She parted her lips and asked him on the stage, "Battle Armor? What's that? I've never heard of it."
Lin Yuan answered Zhu Zhuyun's question. "It's only natural you haven't heard of it, because Battle Armor isn't a product of our Soul Master era. It first appeared in the Soul Master era ten thousand years from now, and in the era twenty thousand years from now, it became a mainstream force on par with Martial Souls and Soul Tools. Because of Battle Armor, that era even saw the rise of a profession with a status above Soul Masters: Battle Armor Masters!"
Lin Yuan had barely finished answering Zhu Zhuyun when Bibi Dong asked him, "Battle Armor Masters have a status above Soul Masters? Does that mean Battle Armor is very powerful?"
Lin Yuan answered Bibi Dong with a smile. "It's far more than ordinarily powerful."
"The Battle Armor you see is a Four-Word Full-Set Battle Armor called the Black God Set. Anyone can become its host by dripping their blood on it. It can merge into its host's flesh and blood, and the host need only think to summon and use it. The highest level of Battle Armor is the Six-Word Full-Set Battle Armor, while the lowest is the One-Word Full-Set Battle Armor."
"How powerful is a Four-Word Full-Set Battle Armor? Let me put it this way: a Soul Emperor wearing one can unleash combat power on par with a nine-ring Titled Douluo! An ordinary Titled Douluo wearing one can easily match a level 98 Titled Douluo. And if a Level 99 Titled Douluo puts one on, they would be virtually invincible below the level of a god."
After hearing Lin Yuan's words and learning how powerful Battle Armor was, Bibi Dong's beautiful eyes lit up. She instinctively called out a bid. "One million Gold Soul Coins!"
"Awooo!!!"
No sooner had Bibi Dong finished bidding than a roar came from the third glass case.
The instant she heard it, a thought occurred to Qian Renxue, who was disguised as the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe.
The third item is alive! Just like the last item seven days ago!
At the same time, Qian Renxue realized that the third item was a Soul Beast.
As for the Soul Beast's cultivation age, race, and type, Qian Renxue didn't know.
There were two living items in this auction: the Auspicious Beast Qilin and the Soul Beast spirit pet Wuzhiqi. Only Lin Yuan knew which one was in the third glass case.
After Bibi Dong, the Pope of Spirit Hall, Ning Fengzhi, the sect master of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, also called out a bid. "Two million Gold Soul Coins!"
Ning Fengzhi was undoubtedly not bidding on the Four-Word Full-Set Battle Armor, the Black God Set, for himself. After all, let alone facing a Seven-Ring Soul Sage of his own realm, he could only be beaten up even by a Power Attack System Five-Ring Soul King. He was once again bidding on the Four-Word Full-Set Battle Armor, the Black God Set, for the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's sky-supporting white jade pillar, Sword Douluo Chen Xin.
"Three million Gold Soul Coins!"
This bid came from Sea God Douluo Bo Saixi. Like Bibi Dong and Ning Fengzhi, she had taken a fancy to the Four-Word Full-Set Battle Armor, the Black God Set. If she won it, she intended to try it on immediately and see whether what Lin Yuan had said was true.
As Sea God Douluo Bo Saixi bid, Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI spoke to Beast God Di Tian. "Lord Di Tian, the Four-Word Full-Set Battle Armor, the Black God Set, is no ordinary thing. We should do our utmost to obtain it. If those human Soul Masters get it, it will be greatly detrimental to us."
After listening to Hell Demon Dragon Zi JI, Beast God Di Tian nodded and replied, "You have a point."
Beast God Di Tian immediately called out a bid. "Five million Gold Soul Coins!"
"Six million Gold Soul Coins!" Bibi Dong refused to be outdone and followed his bid.
"Seven million Gold Soul Coins!" Sea God Douluo Bo Saixi followed just as closely.
Gold Soul Coins?
Sea God Island had no shortage of them!
Back when the Sea God Poseidon had waged war across the ocean, he had plundered considerable wealth.
Although Bo Saixi hadn't brought many Gold Soul Coins to the Lin Auction House this time, she could still produce tens of millions without a problem.
Qian Daoliu rose from his seat.
He headed for the quiet room on the second floor.
As he left, he gave Qian Renxue, who was disguised as the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe, a look, signaling her to follow him.
Catching her grandfather's signal, Qian Renxue, still disguised as the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe, immediately said to Ning Fengzhi, "Teacher, nature calls. Sorry, I need to step away for a moment."
"Go ahead," Ning Fengzhi answered Qian Renxue instinctively. His attention was entirely on the Four-Word Full-Set Battle Armor, the Black God Set, and he paid her no mind.
And so Qian Renxue, disguised as the Heaven Dou Crown Prince, Xue Qinghe, followed Qian Daoliu up to the second floor of the Lin Auction House.
She was about to take the Martial Soul Evolution Pill Qian Daoliu had won at auction.
Her Martial Soul, the Six-Winged Angel, was about to evolve!
