Douluo Dalu: Ice Snake Martial Spirit, Infinite Evolution

Chapter 125 Ice Jade Scorpion's Left Arm Bone!

"I understand, thank you!"

After accepting the invitation, Ma Xiaotao closed the door and went back inside.

"You were absolutely right!" Wu Ming looked at the invitation in Ma Xiaotao's hand and then looked at Dugu Han in surprise.

She had previously mentioned wanting to keep an eye out for when the auction would start, just in case she missed it because of her cultivation!
However, Dugu Han confidently assured them that they didn't need to worry, as someone would definitely send them invitations before the auction began.

"It's easy to guess!"

"The Starlight Auction House is owned by the Star Luo Empire's royal family, and the hotel we're staying at is also run by the Star Luo Empire's royal family. I guess the Starlight Auction House already knew about us!"

“They know we exist, so there’s no way they wouldn’t send an invitation.”

After Dugu Han finished speaking, he took the three invitations from Ma Xiaotao, looked them over, and laughed, "And it's not just us. I reckon Wang Yan and his team, as well as teams from other academies, should have received their invitations by now!"

"boom!"

"Bang bang bang!"

As the three were talking, there was another knock on the door.

Ma Xiaotao got up again and went to open the door.

The visitor was Wang Yan.

"Teacher Wang, what's the matter?" Ma Xiaotao asked.

Holding the invitation in his hand, Wang Yan asked, "There's a top-tier auction at Starlight Auction House tonight. Have you received your invitations?"

"Received!"

As Ma Xiaotao spoke, she turned her head and glanced at Dugu Han inside the room.

Wu Ming also looked at Dugu Han in surprise.

He was right again!

"It's good that I received it!"

Wang Yan smiled and said, "Then you can come with us tonight. If there's anything you want to film, the academy can lend you the funds."

"it is good!"

Ma Xiaotao smiled and nodded.

After seeing Wang Yan off, she closed the door and walked back, looking at Dugu Han with curiosity.

"Junior Uncle, are you a fortune teller?"

"What, do you want me to do your fortune telling?" Dugu Han said with a smile.

"Calculate my love line!"

Ma Xiaotao stretched out her hand with a grin, while grumbling somewhat unhappily, "This girl is naturally beautiful and incredibly talented, but no one has ever pursued me all this time. It's infuriating!"

"Calculate my fortune too!"

Wu Ming also leaned over and extended her delicate hand, revealing her palm.

She also had the same troubles as Ma Xiaotao.

Why isn't anyone chasing after him?

Dugu Han glanced at the two of them, somewhat speechless.

Two active volcanoes in the inner courtyard, who would dare to chase them?
They really have no idea what they're doing!
However, he still reached out and grabbed Ma Xiaotao's and Wu Ming's hands respectively, pretending to look them over.

Ma Xiaotao's hands were very white and soft to the touch, while her palms were slightly warm. The soft texture was like a freshly steamed glutinous rice ball, and if you gently squeezed it, it felt as if it could sink into your palm.

Unlike Ma Xiaotao's warm hands, Wu Ming's fingers were slightly cool, with long, straight knuckles, like finely polished mutton fat jade, and her skin had a faint pearly luster.

"There's practically no romantic connection between you two; you'll probably never be married in this lifetime!"

Dugu Han sighed dramatically, while his fingers gently stroked the two women's hands.

It's very soft and smooth!

Ma Xiaotao and Wu Ming looked at him suspiciously, then at the large hand stroking their small hands.

The two women exchanged a glance, and at the same time, kicked him off the bed.

Damn it, they took advantage of them and then cursed them to be unwanted.

"Cough cough!"

Dugu Han climbed back up, grabbed Ma Xiaotao and Wu Ming's little hands, and said with a smile, "Let's hurry up and cultivate!"

The two women rolled their eyes at him, then each extended their other hand, palm to palm, and began to cultivate together.

Until nightfall!

Wang Yan came over and called them to attend the auction!
Dugu Han and the other two stopped cultivating, got up and went outside.

Huo Yuhao and the others had been waiting for a long time. When they saw the three of them come out together, they walked towards the Starlight Auction House.

Qingya, who had previously sent invitations to Dugu Han and the other two, was waiting at the entrance of the Starlight Auction House.

When she saw the group approaching, she smiled and greeted them, saying, "Welcome, distinguished guests."

"plz follow me!"

Qingya smiled at Wang Yan, the team leader, and then turned and led the group into the auction house.

"Let's go in!"

Wang Yan led everyone inside.

Soon, Qingya led everyone to Auction Hall No. 1 of the auction house, introducing as they walked: "Auction Hall No. 1 is the most luxurious exhibition hall in our auction house. It is only opened once a year, and only the most distinguished guests are qualified to enter."

As she spoke, she led everyone through a series of small doors, finally entering a door with a number three on it.

"Box number three!"

Before going in, Dugu Han glanced at the number plate. He remembered that it was room number seven in the original novel.

However, a private room was no big deal, so he didn't pay much attention to it and followed the others inside.

Inside the door was an enormous private room, decorated in the most luxurious way, filled with all sorts of precious jade, portraits and other decorative items.

The carpet was made from pieces of ten-thousand-year-old fire-attribute soul beast hides, with the central part made from a whole fifty-thousand-year-old fire-attribute soul beast hide.

Dugu Han and the others felt a very comfortable sensation when they stepped on it.

In addition, there are four sofas made from the trunks of ancient plant spirit beasts, which can accommodate thirty people at the same time to watch the auction.

In the center, there is a round table made of special jade, on which dozens of kinds of food and drinks are served free of charge.

In the middle is a soul guide projector.

Qingya turned on the soul-guided projector, projecting a three-dimensional image above the table, which could be viewed simultaneously by people from four directions.

"This is the soul-guided projection technology we bought from the Sun Moon Empire. Currently, only rooms number one and two, and our room number three, have been renovated."

After giving a brief introduction to the soul-guided projector, Qingya looked at Dugu Han and the others and smiled, "To protect the privacy of our distinguished guests, all auction items will be auctioned in their respective private rooms. Let me explain the auction rules to you..."

After listening to her introduction, everyone sat down.

Dai Yueheng, Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, and He Caitou were the four people.

Jiang Nannan, Xiao Xiao, and Ling Luochen are three women.

Huo Yuhao, Wang Dong, and Wang Yan are the three of them.

Dugu Han and the other two each reserved a sofa.

The sofa was large, and Ma Xiaotao lay down on it, resting her head on Dugu Han's lap.

"Sit down!"

Upon seeing this, Dugu Han immediately smacked her on the head: "What kind of behavior is this for a young lady when you're out in public?"

"You're such an old-fashioned person!"

Ma Xiaotao muttered something under her breath and sat up straight.

Qingya quickly finished explaining the auction rules and asked everyone with a smile, "There's one minute left before the auction starts. Do any of you distinguished guests have any questions?"

"no!"

She explained it in great detail, and everyone said they had no problems.

A minute passed quickly.

A girl's figure appeared in the projection.

"This is our auction house's only gold medal auctioneer, Auctioneer Jiu Jiu."

Qingya explained, "She is also His Majesty's younger sister."

"Then isn't she the princess of your Star Luo Empire?"

Apart from Dugu Han, who already knew, everyone else was very surprised.

“That’s right, she is Princess Jiujiu of our Star Luo Empire, but in the auction house, her identity is that of an auctioneer, so we usually refer to her as Auctioneer Jiujiu.” Qingya explained with a smile.

But at this moment, everyone's attention was drawn to the number one auction item in Xu Jiujiu's hand on the projection!

It was a large sword, four feet six and a half inches long and one inch wide, shaped like a cavalry saber with a bone-like handguard, and faint fluctuations of soul power emanating from it.

A long, drawn-out voice rang out at that moment.

"This is an eighth-level close-range attack soul tool called the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade."

"Its materials are extremely precious, and it was even made from a ten-thousand-year-old Tyrant Tiger Soul Beast's soul bone, which also comes with a solidification skill..."

Xu Jiujiu gave a detailed explanation of the creation of the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade and its enhancement effect on Soul Masters. Finally, he specifically pointed out: "This Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade is produced by the Mingde Hall of the Sun Moon Empire. I don't need to say more about its value. I will just add one more thing: a Soul Saint holding this Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade can directly challenge a Soul Douluo who is a level above him."

"Challenging a Contra player beyond his level!"

As Dai Yueheng listened to the long introduction and looked at the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade, he immediately became excited, and even his breathing became heavier.

This level 8 close-range attack soul tool is perfect for him, extremely suitable for him.

Huo Yuhao and He Caitou stared intently at the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade.

They had no intention of buying it, but the soul-guided technology required for its creation was very appealing to them.

The others weren't particularly interested in the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade, but were surprised by its level of soul guidance device.

"Level 8 soul tools are usually the highlight of auctions, but I didn't expect the first item in this auction to be a level 8 close-range attack soul tool."

Wu Ming, sitting on the other side of Dugu Han, exclaimed in surprise.

Upon hearing this, Dugu Han smiled and explained, "Those are just ordinary auctions. This is a top-tier auction. In a top-tier auction, level eight soul tools are just appetizers!"

Meanwhile, Ma Xiaotao, on his other side, was tempted by the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade.

She glanced at Dai Yueheng, the eldest son of the White Tiger Duke's mansion, who had far more gold soul coins than she did.

Thinking of this, Ma Xiaotao couldn't help but look at Dugu Han, chuckled, and hugged his arm: "Junior Uncle!"

"You want it?" Dugu Han asked with a smile.

"Ok?"

Upon hearing this, Dai Yueheng immediately shifted his gaze from the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade.

He glanced at Ma Xiaotao, then looked at Dugu Han.

He knew that Dugu Han held the dominant position between the two.

Dai Yueheng hesitated for a moment before saying, "This Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade is perfect for me. If possible, how about you let me have it?"

"You think you can just give way like that? Who do you think you are!"

Ma Xiaotao spoke first, then looked at Dugu Han ingratiatingly and chuckled, "Junior Uncle, you know my teacher is very stingy, the kind who stretches every penny in half."

“Level 8 soul tools are too rubbish. You can ask the academy to provide the money and materials, and I’ll go to the Sun Moon Empire to have someone custom-make one for you,” Dugu Han said with a smile.

"Customize one?"

Ma Xiaotao blinked and immediately understood what he meant. Overjoyed, she hugged Dugu Han tightly.

She knew all too well how generous her junior uncle was.

That's practically giving away a 50,000-year-old soul bone just like that.

A custom-made soul tool is definitely at least a level nine soul tool.

Although Shrek Academy needs to provide the money and materials, when has Shrek Academy ever lacked these things?

"Okay, stop making trouble!"

Dugu Han smiled and pushed Ma Xiaotao away, then looked at Dai Yueheng and said, "Go ahead and take the picture, Xiaotao won't fight you for it."

"Thank you!"

Dai Yueheng said gratefully, "Don't worry, I will definitely not tell Senior Sister about your relationship with that woman in the future."

"That woman?"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately turned to look at Dugu Han.

There's juicy gossip, absolutely juicy gossip!
Beibei immediately frowned.

Zhang Lexuan broke off her engagement with him and got together with Dugu Han. When he asked Elder Mu about Dugu Han's relationship with the Tang Clan, Elder Mu had already told him this, and he also wished Dugu Han and Zhang Lexuan well.

But what's the deal with that woman?

"You betrayed Senior Sister?" Bei Bei clenched her fists.

Wu Ming also stared at Dugu Han with a fierce look in his eyes.

Ma Xiaotao stared wide-eyed at Dugu Han as if he were a scumbag: "No way, you've found another woman?"

"What do you mean?"

Dugu Han glared at her irritably, then explained to Wu Ming, "Dai Yueheng was talking about Xiao Tian, ​​as you all know, and Le Xuan knows too."

When Wu Ming heard it was Ning Tian, ​​she rolled her eyes at him.

She thought that Dugu Han had cheated on Zhang Lexuan with another woman!

Beibei was completely stunned!

Le Xuan knew too?
Does the eldest sister also know about him and that woman?

"Idol!"

Xu Sanshi looked at Dugu Han in surprise.

Well, he hasn't even won over Jiang Nannan yet, and Dugu Han has already hooked up with another woman while pursuing the senior sister of the inner courtyard.

And she hooked up with him even though her senior sister knew about it.

"can!"

He Caitou quietly gave a thumbs up.

After noticing this, Huo Yuhao gave Dugu Han a thumbs up: "Impressive!"

"Scumbag!"

Ling Luochen, Jiang Nannan, Xiaoxiao, and Wang Dong all spat at Dugu Han in unison.

Dugu Han selectively ignored them, glanced at the stunned Bei Bei, and then looked at Dai Yueheng.

Dai Yueheng realized he had said the wrong thing and avoided his gaze with an embarrassed smile.

"You're done!"

"See you in the Soul Battle Zone after we get back to the academy."

Dugu Han smiled gently at Dai Yueheng.

"Gulu!"

Upon hearing this, Dai Yueheng swallowed hard, somewhat alarmed.

Although he had never fought Dugu Han, he had heard Dai Huabin talk about Dugu Han's combat strength, and that was during his advanced Soul Master period. Now he was an advanced Soul King, and he also had a 100,000-year-old Soul Ring and Soul Bone.

"All right!"

At this moment, Wang Yan spoke up to stop the farce: "Time is almost up, Dai Yueheng, if you want to, hurry up and film it!"

"I'll film it right now! I'll film it right now!"

Dai Yueheng glanced cautiously at Dugu Han, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Dugu Han was no longer paying attention to him, and then began to participate in the auction.

The Overlord Tiger Soul Refining Blade was finally sold for 1.56 million.

The next item up for auction!

These are twelve level-six fixed-position soul-guided cannonballs produced by Mingdetang. Each soul-guided cannonball has a different attribute: water, fire, earth, wind, light, darkness, poison, lightning, frost, metal, explosive, and paralysis.

Starting bid for twelve Level 6 fixed-position soul-guided cannon shells: 650,000 gold soul coins.

It was eventually bought by Wang Yan for 655,000 gold soul coins, and he planned to hand it over to the Soul Guidance Academy for research after returning home.

Then, a ten-thousand-year-old left arm bone, a ten-thousand-year-old right arm bone, a ten-thousand-year-old left leg bone, a mysterious metal, and an eighth-level soul-guided cannon appeared in succession.

The three ten-thousand-year-old soul bones were of ordinary quality and did not cause any stir.

The level 8 soul-guided cannon, however, was said to have been handcrafted by a level 9 soul master from the Sun Moon Empire, and it was auctioned for over seven million gold soul coins.

Soon it was time for the eighth item to be auctioned.

"This is one of the highlight items of our auction: the left arm bone of the Ice Jade Scorpion."

Xu Jiujiu explained to a piece of left arm bone.

The left arm bone was entirely emerald green, emitting a faint white mist, which was the chilling aura emanating from the soul bone.

Its surface is covered with tiny, crystal-clear crystals, like exquisite gemstones adorning it.
