Douluo Continent: The Ice Dragon King Martial Soul, Ma Xiaotao is Addicted

"What Sect Leader Ye said makes sense. I apologize for being presumptuous."

Princess Vina was politely declined, but her face did not show the slightest disappointment or dissatisfaction. Instead, she smiled as if she had expected it, her smile gentle and generous, defusing any potential awkwardness.

She was clearly a master of negotiation, understanding that core technology was not for sale and that forcing it would only ruin the atmosphere.

She didn't dwell on this doomed question, and naturally changed the subject, focusing on feasible deals.

"To be honest, I am very interested in your sect's 'Aurora Shadow' combat flight soul tool." Princess Vina spoke slowly, her gaze sweeping over the small model of the Aurora Shadow on the table.

Even though it's just an ordinary model ornament, its powerful and dynamic form reveals its extraordinary nature.

As a princess of the Heavenly Soul Empire, Vina was well aware of the current state of her country.

Sunset Forest occupies a significant portion of the vast territory of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

This ancient primeval forest is not only rich in resources, but also a paradise for spirit beasts. However, it also means that the border is long and difficult to control completely.

High-level flying spirit beasts from the depths of the forest, or aerial invaders with malicious intent, have always been a huge challenge to the empire's air defense.

Therefore, any cutting-edge soul tool that can significantly enhance air defense and mobility is a strategic resource that the Heavenly Soul Empire urgently needs.

When Vina first saw the "Aurora Shadow," her heart skipped a beat.

Although I didn't have the opportunity to personally test drive and experience its extreme performance, the various parameters clearly listed next to the booth were impressive enough.

Far exceeding the maximum speed of ordinary level seven flying soul tools, incredible emergency stopping and turning capabilities, and built-in multi-functional attack modules...

All the descriptions indicate that this is a combat flight soul guide with an advanced design concept and extremely powerful combat performance!

However, since it was impossible to test drive it on the spot, most people felt that there must be some exaggeration involved, and it was just an advertising gimmick.

Most of the people who come here are senior Soul Masters, and they naturally know that some Soul Masters deliberately exaggerate the effects of Soul Tools in order to sell them better.

Moreover, there's no such thing as a return or refund for soul tools. After all, soul tools are used for combat, and who knows if they might be damaged during a battle?

In particular, Ye Chen's Aurora Shadow was a level seven soul tool, worth millions of gold soul coins.

Therefore, no one can place an order before the trial period begins.

However, Princess Vina took a liking to the Aurora Shadow at first sight and had a strong desire to buy it.

"Princess, we haven't test-driven it. Who knows if they're exaggerating? You can't be fooled just because he's handsome..."

Upon hearing this, the woman in white beside her became anxious, thinking that her princess had been bewitched by the young man's good looks, and quickly spoke up to remind her.

Upon hearing this, Vina blushed slightly, turned her head, and whispered a reproachful rebuke: "Muxue, don't talk nonsense!"

After saying that, she turned to look at Ye Chen again and quickly apologized, "Sect Leader Ye, Mu Xue didn't mean it. It's my fault for not disciplining her properly. I hope Sect Leader Ye won't hold it against her."

"It doesn't matter."

Ye Chen smiled, clearly not going to hold a grudge over such a small matter.

At least, Mu Xue's attitude was much better than that of the old woman Xu Jiujiu brought.

"Thank you for your understanding."

Vina smiled sweetly at Ye Chen, her eyes filled with gratitude.

Although he couldn't discern Ye Chen's cultivation level, the fact that he had achieved the position of Vice Sect Master of the Tang Sect at such a young age, and possessed so many advanced soul guidance technologies, meant that Ye Chen was no ordinary person.

If she offends the other party for no reason, even if she is a princess, she will be in considerable trouble.

"One Aurora Shadow costs six million gold soul coins. I wonder how many Your Highness would like?" Ye Chen smiled slightly and directly stated his price.

When Princess Vina heard the price, her delicate eyebrows twitched almost imperceptibly.

Not only Vina, but also Mu Xue, and even the Super Douluo behind them, all experienced a slight fluctuation in their mentality. The average price of a level seven soul tool is around 400 million gold soul coins.

Only soul tools with extremely high manufacturing difficulty, such as level seven milk bottles, can be worth six to seven million gold soul coins.

While flying soul tools do command a premium, it's impossible for them to be this much more expensive.

"A level seven soul tool sells for six million gold soul coins? Why don't you just rob someone?!"

Mu Xue was the first to lose her temper and spoke up, somewhat angrily.

As Princess Vina's bodyguard and best friend, she naturally knew the value of the Gold Soul Coins.

Six million gold soul coins are enough to arm a thousand-strong Soul Master legion!
Now they're only offering to buy a level 7 flying soul tool from here. It's obvious the other party saw that Princess Vina really needed this flying soul tool and deliberately raised the price!
"Mu Xue, shut up!"

Vina turned her head and glared fiercely at Mu Xue.

She somewhat regretted bringing the other person along.

Mu Xue often followed her and saw a lot of the world. Everyone was very polite to Mu Xue because of her, which is why Mu Xue developed such a bad habit of talking nonsense.

Fortunately, Ye Chen seemed to have a very good temper; if it were anyone else, they would definitely be angry.

"Excuse me, Sect Leader Ye..."

Vina looked apologetic, clearly somewhat helpless.

"Six million gold soul coins is already a friendly price. Although my Aurora Shadow is a level seven soul tool, its speed and agility far surpass ordinary level eight peak soul tools. In fact, it can even unleash the attack power of a level eight soul tool under extreme conditions." Ye Chen ignored Mu Xue and instead explained the cost-effectiveness of the Aurora Shadow.

Although Ye Chen's prices are a bit high, they are definitely worth the money.

Ye Chen wanted to make Tang Clan famous, so he would never engage in false advertising or deceive customers with defective products.

"I believe in Sect Master Ye."

Vina nodded slightly to Ye Chen.

Although she didn't understand the Tang Clan, she had great trust in them.

In particular, the Tang Sect was able to create two revolutionary soul tools: the "Omni-Phenomenon Communicator" and the "Super Milk Bottle".

Given that a sect possesses soul tools of this caliber, Vina doesn't believe the Tang Sect would make any exaggerated or false claims regarding the parameters of their flying soul tools.

Reputation is the cornerstone of long-term cooperation, and the Tang Clan clearly understands this principle well.

Therefore, in her view, the outrageous data in the "Aurora Glimpses" introduction is highly credible.

She valued more than just the flying soul tool in front of her.

Instead, they valued the amazing potential shown by the Tang Sect!

In Vina's view, signing large orders and paying a premium is a highly strategic investment.

This is not simply a purchase, but rather an "admission ticket," a "priority right."

By investing heavily, they became an important early client of the Tang Sect, establishing close business ties and a foundation of trust. In the future, when the Tang Sect develops more advanced and powerful soul tools...

Tianhun Empire can leverage this "old customer" relationship and past "large orders" to gain priority purchasing rights, more favorable prices, and even the possibility of exclusive agency.

This potential gain far exceeds the value of six million gold soul coins.

Moreover, before she arrived at the Tang Sect exhibition area, she saw Princess Jiu Jiu of the Star Luo Empire hurriedly leaving with her entourage, her expression seemingly unpleasant, even somewhat disheveled...
