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

Chapter 175 The Evil Calamity at the Conferred God Platform, the Disagreement between Xu Jiujiu and Xu Jiawei
Wang Yan clapped his hands, waking everyone from their reverie.

"Alright, this thing is good, but we simply don't have the ability to buy it right now, so let's stop dreaming about it. Besides, even if we fuse with it, it doesn't guarantee that we'll get a second martial soul. These effects are just what Starlight Auction House says."

Dai Yueheng chimed in, "That's right, Teacher Wang is right. Such a treasure is rare and hard to come by, but it's not something we can get our hands on right now."

However, although Dai Yueheng said he didn't care, his eyes flickered with uncertainty, and a hidden hatred was growing in his heart.

If the Starlight Auction House wasn't backed by the Star Luo Royal Family, then he could...

"Where is this?" Meng Hongchen looked around at the fantastical space, not understanding why she was just in the auction house's private room, but suddenly found herself here in the blink of an eye.

"The one sealed in the Conferred God Platform is an Evil Douluo, not a 100,000-year-old Soul Beast."

A somewhat familiar voice rang out, but Meng Hongchen couldn't immediately recall who it was. However, her consciousness quickly faded, and when she opened her eyes again, she was back in the private room, as if everything that had just happened was a dream.

“Evil Douluo?” Meng Hongchen murmured to himself, glanced at the others, and lowered his head.

Why did the other person tell her this information? And why only to her? Is what they said true or false? Should she tell others about this information?
“Brother, I think there’s something wrong with this Conferred God Platform,” Meng Hongchen said, pulling at the excited Xiao Hongchen.

In VIP Box No. 8, Wang Dong'er disconnected the Ether Stream connection.

[Mission: The Evil Calamity of the Conferred God Platform]

Mission Description: The Conferred God Platform seals away a dying Evil Douluo. His evil intentions lie dormant within; once unleashed, they will cause a calamity. This calamity must be resolved personally by the Chosen One or prevented beforehand.

Remind her that she has already given the information, and how she chooses is up to Mingdetang.

However, it's absurd that this thing has to be solved by oneself. Could it be that the invincible shield and the rain of needles are going to be used for this kind of thing?
Meanwhile, Xu Jiujiu had already entered the number one private room where Xu Jiawei was.

"How is it?" Xu Jiawei asked.

Xu Jiujiu did not answer immediately, but pressed his right ear as if listening.

There was a small white earplug on her right ear.

After waiting for a while, the expression on Xu Jiujiu's face kept changing until finally a look of joy appeared.

"Alright, bro, although there seems to have been a bit of an accident, the target has still taken the bait."

“An accident?” Xu Jiawei remained noncommittal. “As long as they take the bait, there will be no accident.”

"So, are they willing to part with Mingdetang's soul tool?" Xu Jiawei asked.

Xu Jiujiu nodded and said, "After we offered to reduce the handling fee to 10% for soul tools produced by Mingdetang, they also sold some soul tools manufactured by Mingdetang. It seems that they are determined to get this Conferred God Platform."

Xu Jiawei laughed, "The Sun Moon Empire has always been at the forefront of soul guidance technology, but it lags far behind us in martial soul cultivation. Now that the grandson of the Mingde Hall Master is the most outstanding genius in the Sun Moon Empire, how could he let go of such an opportunity to become stronger?" "Although Shrek Academy is incredibly wealthy, even surpassing our Star Luo Empire, if we're really comparing financial resources, the Mingde Hall is number one on the continent. Their soul guidance devices are in high demand."

"That's settled then. Send all the soul tools they paid for from Mingdetang to our research institute and focus all our efforts on overcoming their soul tool technology!"

“Yes, brother.” Xu Jiujiu smiled slyly, “Let them go back and slowly search for that ‘level nine soul master’.”

"Okay." Xu Jiawei laughed heartily. "Starting now, in three months, issue the Mingde Hall treasure hunt mission with a reward of 100 million gold soul coins! Remember to clean up the mess. Even if the grandson of the Mingde Hall Master is very talented, he will need at least ten years before he can try. Although the time is short, there is still enough time for things to change."

"What a pity. If our Star Luo Empire were stronger, why would I have to make such a big move?"

"According to our inside source, Mingde Hall seems to have made many breakthroughs in its research on soul tools. We are not yet prepared for a large-scale war in the future, so we have no choice but to use this as a last resort to distract them."

Xu Jiawei sighed softly, "I plan to go to Shrek Academy again in a while..."

"Brother, do you want to bow to Yan Shaozhe again?" Xu Jiujiu asked, frowning.

Xu Jiawei waved his hand and said, "Jiujiu, I know you only want to use Shrek Academy, but let me ask you, even disregarding my feelings for Shrek Academy, if we didn't show our Star Luo Empire's respect for Shrek Academy, what would happen if the events of more than four thousand years ago occurred in our Star Luo Empire? Have you thought about that?"

After a long while, his expression softened.

“Brother, with a formidable enemy at hand, Shrek Academy is indeed our ally. But what if, what if our three great empires truly annihilate the Sun Moon Empire? What will become of Shrek Academy then? They are already in this state now. What if they are not content with just being an academy in the future? How many generals and officials in our Star Luo Empire have we trained ourselves?”

"Enough!" Xu Jiawei's face darkened. "Don't say anything that's detrimental to unity. We can deal with the future later. Our current enemy is the Sun Moon Empire! Alright, tell me, what are the reactions of those sects?"

After a long pause, she didn't bring up the previous topic again, but continued, following Xu Jiawei's words, "Two families have expressed clear intentions. Another one is the successor of the Haotian Sect. I think we can definitely try to contact her, and it would be best to win her over."

"Let's talk about it later. She's still a student at Shrek Academy. What can you offer to win her over? Let's deal with the Conferred God Platform issue first and try to create some friction between these families."

He didn't refute his emperor brother's words for a long time, then turned around and opened the door to the private room. The moment he came out, his expression changed a few times, and he sighed inwardly.

"If you are so indecisive and unwilling to even try, how can you expect to change? Brother, you may not be old yet, but your heart is already old." After pausing for a long time, he continued walking away.

When Xu Jiujiu reappeared on the Soul Guidance Screen, the auction officially began.

The Conferred God Platform, which seals a "100,000-year-old soul beast," had a starting bid of a staggering 100 million gold soul coins, and the final transaction price reached 150 million gold soul coins.

The Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy was the one that ultimately won the bid for the Conferred God Platform.

Meng Hongchen looked worried and asked Xiao Hongchen in a low voice, "Brother, don't you believe me?"

Xiao Hongchen shook her head: "You are my sister, and I believe you would not intentionally harm me. However, the Conferred God Platform is of great significance. Even if I don't use it, it must be brought back to Mingde Hall. Whatever secrets the Conferred God Platform holds, Grandpa will know as soon as he sees it."
