Douluo Dalu: The Unrivaled Panlong Zhentian

Chapter 13 The Person Behind the Ancient Jade Concentration Box (Seeking Collection, Investment, and Recommendation)
"However, this item is consigned for auction, and the final transaction price will be determined after the original owner of the item is satisfied."

There are two ways to settle the auction. The first is to leave it to the auction house and settle the account based on the highest transaction price. The other is to cancel the auction if you are not satisfied with the auction price. The item belongs to someone else, and you cannot force them to buy or sell it if they are not satisfied.

However, very few people would choose to cancel the auction, and generally no one has the ability to act wildly at the Sun and Moon Glory Auction House.

"Then, the starting price of this 'Ancient Jade Concentration Box' is also one million gold soul coins!" Auctioneer Hua Heng announced loudly after a pause.

"One million and one million gold soul coins!"

"."

As her voice fell, the atmosphere in the auction hall heated up again. People began to bid, competing for this rare treasure. Qiangu Tianzong also fell into deep thought, considering whether to participate in the auction.

Qiangu Tianzong thought to himself, "Such a treasure should be put in a top-level auction. For such a treasure to appear here, there must be something fishy behind it!"

"However, the story behind this treasure has nothing to do with me. Since it is put on the auction floor, it is destined to be mine."

"Two million gold soul coins!" Qiangu Tianzong directly raised the price. In a word, he was not short of money.

In just a short moment, the bidding price had reached 2.7 million Gold Soul Coins.

However, at this moment, the auctioneer Hua Heng announced another piece of news: "As far as I know from the owner of the item, this item can also be traded in barter. If you have treasures or rare materials of comparable value, you can also bring them out for exchange."

As soon as the news came out, the atmosphere in the auction hall became heated again. Many people began to wonder if they had treasures or materials that could match the "Ancient Jade Concentration Box".

Qiangu Tianzong also fell into deep thought. Although he had many rare soul guides and elixirs, he also had a lot of gold soul coins.

But after hearing the sudden news, Qiangu Tianzong guessed that the owner of the ancient jade concentration box wanted to exchange some items for a purpose, but he didn't want more powerful soul masters and forces to know about it. He guessed that the complexity behind it should exceed his imagination.

"He is not satisfied with the gold soul coins?"

"When someone suddenly asks for an exchange, what we should be pursuing is not the Gold Soul Coin, but something else. But what exactly does the person behind this want?" Qiangu Tianzong pondered to himself.

At this moment, an idea suddenly occurred to him. He decided to take out a new type of soul guide he had recently developed to exchange and test the waters. This soul guide had been tested in actual combat, and he had put a lot of effort into the research process. He believed that its value might be able to attract the owner of the "Ancient Jade Concentration Box".

But it depends on whether the person behind the scenes is satisfied or not.

So, Qiangu Tianzong pressed a button on the side, and within a moment, the door was pushed open, and a maid in red walked in, "Dear guest, how can I help you?"

"I am willing to exchange something for this 'Ancient Jade Concentration Box'." He signaled to the maid beside him that he was interested in participating in the auction.

The maid in red skirt had a flash of surprise in her eyes, but she quickly returned to her professional smile, "So, dear guest, what treasure are you going to exchange for?"

Qiangu Tianzong smiled slightly and took out an exquisite black box from the space soul guide. The box was inlaid with several gems of different colors, shining with charming light. He gently opened the box, revealing a complex soul guide device inside.

"This is a new type of soul guide I have recently researched, called the 'Psychic Resonator', which is infinitely close to a sixth-level soul guide. It is my best work so far. This soul guide can be considered an auxiliary soul guide."

Qiangu Tianzong introduced, "It can resonate with the spirit power of the soul master during battle, strengthen the spirit defense of the soul master, and at the same time improve the spirit attack ability of the soul master to a certain extent. I believe that its value should be equivalent to the 'Ancient Jade Concentration Box'."

The maid in red carefully took the "Spiritual Resonator" handed over by Qiangu Tianzong, with a look of surprise and admiration on her face. Obviously, the complexity and sophistication of this soul guide exceeded her expectations.

"Dear guest, your 'Psychic Resonator' is indeed very precious and unique." The maid in red dress said with a smile, "However, the final decision still lies with the owner of the item. Please wait a moment, I will go and ask the owner of the item."

Qiangu Tianzong nodded to show his understanding. He knew that the owner of this "Ancient Jade Concentration Box" would definitely not give up easily. After all, for such a precious treasure, everyone would hope to exchange it for greater benefits.

"Wait, the level of my soul guide may be a little low. Tell the owner of the item that I am willing to add 1.5 million gold soul coins, plus Xuanshui Pills, Shenghun Pills, and Ninghun Pills."

However, he was still very confident in the "psychic resonator" in his hand. Although this soul guide had not yet been tested in actual combat, he had devoted a lot of effort and energy in the research process and believed that its value and potential were huge.

At the same time, the female auctioneer Hua Heng on the auction table also received a private request for an exchange. She stopped the bids loudly and said, "Please wait for a moment, distinguished guests. A distinguished guest has initiated a private exchange with a very high value. We will continue after the owner of the item has identified it. Please understand."

"I understand. We've been shouting out prices for quite some time but still haven't settled on a price!"

"Are you kidding us?" Some people were dissatisfied. "What's the name of your auction house?"

"Gentlemen, this auction item is not owned by our auction house, and we also need to respect the opinions of the consignor. Now this item is not only for auction, but also for exchange. I hope you can understand. After all, if the consignor is not satisfied, he can cancel the auction."

When many customers were dissatisfied, the third-level supervisor of the auction house stepped forward.

"So you don't want the Gold Soul Coins! Why didn't you say so earlier?"

"In that case, I also have something to exchange." Those who thought better of the matter also realized that the person behind the scenes was not after the Gold Soul Coin.

"I have an advanced soul guide."

"I have elixirs, plus gold soul coins."

"."

The scene was once very lively.

No matter how noisy it was outside, Qiangu Tianzong just waited there with peace of mind.

As many barter requests were submitted, there was no more bidding at the auction.

After a while, the maid in red came back with a hint of joy on her face: "Dear guest, the owner of the item is very interested in your 'Mind Resonator'."

When Qiangu Tianzong heard this, he also showed a satisfied smile on his face. Just when he thought he had picked up a great bargain this time, not only did he get the "Ancient Jade Concentration Box" he coveted, but he also avoided a fierce bidding, the red-dressed maid said something next.

"But the other party wants to meet you, and it seems that he wants to discuss the price."

Qiangu Tianzong was slightly stunned when he heard this.

He also developed a strong interest in the mysterious owner of the item and wanted to know why the other party wanted to see him.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I'm sorry, but the options provided by a customer have been approved by the consignor, so the auction item of the large scroll has been completely exchanged. So today's auction is over."

"If this auction causes any inconvenience to you, I hope you will forgive me." Hua Heng said to those people after learning that the consignor had been selected.

After she said this, there was a lot of dissatisfaction at the scene, but the people at the auction house didn't care who the transaction was done for, because no matter who it was, they would not lose any money on the agency fee they were supposed to collect.

……

On this side, Qiangu Tianzong was led by a maid to another private room.

"Sir, the sender is inside."

"Hmm!" Qiangu Tianzong responded lightly and pushed the door open.

Then he saw a man standing inside, also wearing a mask, but the mask was black. It seemed that he had been waiting for Qiangu Tianzong for a long time.

"You came!"

Judging from his voice, he sounds more like a middle-aged man.

"Are you the owner of the Ancient Jade Concentration Box?"

"Yes!"

"Since my request has been met, what else do you need me to add?"

"Or do you have other intentions?" Qiangu Tianzong looked at him with sharp eyes.
