Douluo: The Peerless King Dong'er's Restarted Life

Chapter 171 Huo Yuhao: I will climb to the top step by step.

In the center of the Soul Guidance Screen, a girl in a red dress appeared. It was Xu Jiujiu, the auctioneer whom Qingya had met earlier.

On the platform where Xu Jiujiu was standing, the auction stage that had appeared on the screen earlier did not appear.

"Distinguished guests, welcome to Starlight Auction House. I am Jiu Jiu, the auctioneer hosting this top-tier auction. Without further ado, please take a look at today's first item."

As she spoke, she gave a sweet smile and performed a complex yet elegant gesture on the screen.

Immediately afterwards, the scene changed, and what appeared on the soul guide screen was no longer Xu Jiujiu, but an enlarged image of an item placed on the auction stage. The huge soul guide screen displayed every detail of the auction item in detail.

"This auctioneer, Xu Jiujiu, is actually performing court etiquette of the Star Luo Empire?" Dai Yueheng noticed Xu Jiujiu's etiquette and asked Qingya.

“You’re not mistaken, this is indeed court etiquette,” Qingya explained. “Auctioneer Jiujiu is the chief auctioneer of our Starlight Auction House, and also the only gold-level auctioneer.”

"A gold-level auctioneer? But she's wearing a red dress, isn't she?" Xu Sanshi asked.

Qingya smiled faintly and explained, "Auctioneers only put on their formal gold-level auction attire when auctioning items worth over 100 million."

“Actually, Auctioneer Jiu Jiu is also the younger sister of the current Emperor of the Star Luo Empire. However, Auctioneer Jiu Jiu once said that when she was at the auction house, she was just an auctioneer, so we did not address her as Your Highness.”

Revealing Xu Jiujiu's identity was at Xu Jiujiu's behest, and Qingya wasn't worried about any problems arising from revealing it to everyone here.

Moreover, she will also be a member of the Star Luo Royal Academy team in the competition after a long time, at which time the Shrek Academy members will be able to recognize her.

"So Starlight Auction House has this kind of background." Wang Yan had already guessed that Starlight Auction House was probably supported by the royal family.

Only in this way could they break through the royal blockade to send out invitations to the Star Emperor Hotel, and only then could they allow a princess to work as an auctioneer there.

After a brief period of appreciation, Xu Jiujiu's voice came again: "The first item to be auctioned is the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade, an eighth-level close-range soul guide device. It is made from the right arm bone of a ten-thousand-year-old Tyrant Tiger, which solidifies its soul bone skill, Tyrant Blade Slash, and can also amplify the attack power of similar soul skills by fifty percent."

"When using this close-range soul tool, each strike will be accompanied by the effect of the Overlord Blade Slash, and it can be stacked with similar soul skills. In addition, with its exquisite core magic array and the energy contained in the soul bone itself, the soul power consumed by releasing the Overlord Blade Slash is only one-third of that under normal circumstances."

"Finally, I would like to inform all distinguished guests that this Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade comes from the Mingde Hall of the Sun Moon Empire. Although it is an eighth-level soul tool, it can be used by anyone at the seventh-ring Soul Saint level. Now, all distinguished guests may enjoy the view for five minutes."

The first item up for auction was an eighth-level soul tool, and by this point everyone had witnessed just how top-tier this auction truly was.

In addition to displaying the design details of the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade, the screen also features detailed explanatory text.

With He Caitou, the most outstanding disciple of the Soul Guidance Department, we can already sense just how high the quality of this Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade is through his description.

Qingya introduced the origins and achievements of Mingde Hall. After hearing that almost all the epoch-making soul tools on the continent were developed by Mingde Hall, everyone gained a deeper understanding of the Sun Moon Empire's soul tool technology strength.

Huo Yuhao was also shocked.

Ever since he was introduced to the world of soul tools, he felt that perhaps his Spirit Eye Martial Soul was born for soul tools.

Now that he has seen these more advanced and diverse soul tools, Huo Yuhao's desire is growing stronger. He wants to climb the mountain of soul tools, step by step, to reach the highest point and see the highest view from the top of the mountain!

"Alright, distinguished guests, the viewing time has come to an end." Xu Jiujiu's voice rang out again.

"Level 8 close-combat soul tool, Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade, starting price 600,000 gold soul coins, minimum increment 5,000 gold soul coins. If no one raises the bid within one minute, it is considered a sale. The auction begins now." The screen changed again, the image of the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade became the background image, and a large number appeared on the upper level, which was the starting price of 600,000 gold soul coins.

“Six hundred and fifty thousand.” Dai Yueheng spoke immediately, and at the same time said to Wang Yan, “Teacher Wang, this is my personal transaction.”

Wang Yan nodded without saying anything more.

Unlike the students of the outer academy, it is perfectly normal for inner academy disciples not to borrow money from the academy.

After all, the inner court disciples all have to do Shrek Academy's inspection team missions, and in the process of doing these missions, they will accumulate wealth.

As soon as Dai Yueheng made a bid, the maid in the golden dress had already placed her bid, and the 600,000 gold soul coins on the soul guide screen jumped to 650,000.

Ultimately, after continuous bidding, Dai Yueheng won the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade for 1.56 million gold soul coins.

Even Dai Yueheng felt a pang of regret at this moment.

After the first item was sold, Xu Jiujiu's figure reappeared on the screen.

The second item in this auction was a set of twelve fixed-mount soul-guided cannon shells, also produced by Mingdetang.

According to Xu Jiujiu's explanation, these twelve fixed-position soul-guided shells are enough to threaten the life of an eight-ring Soul Douluo.

However, to fire these fixed-mount soul-guided projectiles, a fixed-mount soul-guided cannon of at least level six is ​​required, and if it is to fire in bursts, a fixed-mount soul-guided cannon of level seven or higher is required.

This time, everyone will have five minutes to appreciate the content.

He Caitou was the first to rush out and admire the details of these fixed-mount soul-guided cannons on the screen.

Huo Yuhao simply used his mental detection to observe.

As for Wang Dong'er, she had her eyes closed, as if she were dozing off.

However, Huo Yuhao, who was more sensitive to mental energy, was already able to sense that Wang Dong'er's mental energy had quietly extended beyond their private room and spread further away.

If Huo Yuhao hadn't possessed the most perceptive mental-type martial soul, and had a million-year-old mental soul beast like Tianmeng in his sea of ​​spirit to assist him, he would never have been able to detect that Wang Dong'er now possessed such terrifying mental power.

Just look at the other people present; apart from Huo Yuhao, no one else could notice him at all.

Wang Dong'er extended her mental energy to conduct a wide-area scan, just to see who was in the other private rooms.

After all, she came here for one thing: the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone that possesses the Ice Explosion Technique.

Without the Conferred God Platform, this Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone will probably be the last item up for auction.

However, what Wang Dong'er didn't expect was that the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone was really just a final item at this top-tier auction, and the final item was something she hadn't anticipated at all...
