Douluo: When Tang Wulin Met Little Huo Niang

Chapter 143 Who will win the flower?
In a luxurious room, Xu Jiawei handed the dragon blood ganoderma that had just been placed on the exhibition stand to the old man in front of him.

"As expected of Shrek Academy, it is indeed rich enough to rival a country."

The old man did not make any move. The dragon blood ganoderma that Xu Jiawei placed on the table suddenly disappeared. He said calmly:
"Thank you. It is beyond my expectation to find such a fairy product here."

Xu Jiawei asked tentatively:

"Excuse me, could you explain to me why you, Mr. Mu, collect these valuable herbs?"

Moon shook his head slowly.

"No comment."

Xu Jiawei nodded somewhat disappointedly.

"Ok."

He had several guesses in his mind, but they were just guesses after all unless Moon admitted it himself.

About a year ago, Moon began to establish connections with some of the world's top forces, hoping to find some precious herbs from them.

As time passed, he did receive a lot of replies, but there was no news about the most valuable ones.

On the one hand, the most precious batch of herbs were indeed too precious, and even the major forces had not seen many of them; on the other hand, even if they had what Moon wanted, they were not willing to hand it over to him easily.

Xu Jiawei was originally holding a wait-and-see attitude, but after seeing the outstanding performances of Tang Wulin and Huo Yutong in this competition, he suddenly realized something.

Judging from the ages of these two children, they most likely entered Shrek Academy last year.

Considering that Moon started collecting herbs a year ago, Xu Jiawei suddenly had an epiphany.

If he had a genius of this level under his command, he would do his best to cultivate him.

Anyone with a little common sense can understand how terrifying it is for someone who can defeat a Soul King at the age of ten. If he is already like this at the age of ten, then if he is given another ten years, he may be able to fight against a Titled Douluo.

After figuring this out, Xu Jiawei no longer hesitated and took out this top-notch herb even among the royal collections, gnawing at the pain.

He had Moon's contact information, and when he learned that Moon was also in Xingluo City, he became more certain of his guess and immediately held the auction.

As for why it was sold at an auction instead of directly to Moon, it was to let Tang Wulin know who the original owner of this fairy item was. It could also be considered as establishing a good relationship. If it could leave a good impression on Tang Wulin, then it would be much easier for both parties to contact each other in the future.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and a long voice came in.

"Brother, are you busy now?"

"Ah..." Xu Jiawei was about to ask Xu Jiujiu to wait a little longer, but he found that Moon disappeared without a trace in the blink of an eye. After a slight wry smile, he said, "No hurry, come in."

The door was opened, and Xu Jiujiu walked in with Shrek and his group.

Xu Jiawei smiled warmly.

"Welcome all the high school students from Shrek to our Xingluo City. I watched your competition and it was very exciting. The future trend of this world will definitely be led by you."

As he said that, he looked at Huo Yutong. "You are the one who pointed out the problem with our Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone, right? Of all the competitions, your competition is the most attractive to me. Your talent is one of the rare ones I have ever seen. I invited you here to express my gratitude to you. Thank you for pointing out the absorption limit of the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone, which prevented the Starlight Auction House from losing its reputation."

"Just now, after weighing the pros and cons, we took the bid for the Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone on our own to avoid reputation issues. However, this item will no longer be auctioned. In order to thank Shrek Academy for reminding us, we decided to use this Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone as a prize. If Shrek Academy can eventually win the championship of this Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Fighting Soul Competition, then we will directly give this left arm bone to your academy as an additional reward. Of course, please keep this matter confidential."

Everyone was surprised when they heard this.

Even if Xu Jiawei didn't say it, they could actually guess that the 30 million was the price called by the auction house itself. Using this method to prevent the outflow of the item is obviously much better than announcing that there is a problem with the item.

But Xu Jiawei's statement of giving it to them directly was beyond their expectation. They originally thought that Xu Jiawei called them over to discuss the price and make a deal with them.

This favor was so great that Wang Yan was a little hesitant to accept it.

Xu Jiawei smiled at Huo Yutong.

"My Nation Protector Douluo told me that this kid may have a powerful ice-type martial soul of Ultimate Ice. This soul bone should be suitable for you. As the saying goes, a sword is given to a hero. Anyway, there is probably no other owner of Ultimate Ice in the world today. In this case, instead of letting it gather dust, it is better to give it to someone who can use it. Of course, the champion is still necessary. Although this soul bone did not fetch a high price, it deserves its glory."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

After all, it was the first time for Huo Yutong to see an emperor at such a close distance. It was impossible for her not to be nervous, so she quickly bowed to express her gratitude.

Xu Jiawei showed a steady smile.

"Don't be so polite. From the information you registered, you are from our Xingluo Empire, which means you are my people. As the saying goes, good things should be kept within the family. The door of the Xingluo Empire is always open to you."

Seeing Huo Yutong nod awkwardly, Xu Jiawei's eyes flashed with satisfaction. Winning someone over couldn't be rushed. Today's events must have left a very good impression on this girl, Huo Yutong.

He said gently:

"Okay, it's getting late. You should go back to the hotel and rest. There's a game tomorrow. I hope you can bring me some new surprises."

"Yes!"

All the Shrek members nodded together and walked out of the Starlight Auction House under Xu Jiujiu's guidance.

Even after leaving the Starlight Auction House, everyone still felt that it was a little unreal. Zhou Sichen couldn't help but ask:
"He's really going to give us this soul bone for free?"

Wang Yan shook his head slightly.

"No, it's not for us, but for the academy and Yu Tong. He's doing two favors at the same time. This Xing Luo Emperor really has a good plan."

There is no doubt that this is a win-win deal. Both Xu Jiawei and Shrek Academy got what they wanted, and the relationship between the two sides became closer.

Wang Yan was naturally happy for his students, but at the same time he felt the pressure on his shoulders increased again.

Xu Jiawei specifically emphasized that one must become the champion to get this soul bone, which adds another reason why they must win the championship.

Wang Yan sighed imperceptibly and said to everyone:
"Everyone go back and rest, and get up early tomorrow to prepare for the game."
