Douluo Continent: The Peerless Tang Sect - Sharingan Intercepts Tianmeng

Chapter 26, Laughing at the Mortal World: Fight me, and I'll pay for everything. Xiao Qiang: Xie Xie, 26 million.

As a disciple of Jing Hongchen, Xiao Qiang stayed overnight at the Sun and Moon Royal Auction House. After relaxing for a day by eating and drinking, he waited for the auction the following evening.

Sitting in the VIP room, Xiao Qiang looked at one auction item after another, including some rare and precious items or high-quality pills. After consulting with Jing Yun, Xiao Qiang had already purchased some of the items whose auction price would be higher than the price after bidding. Therefore, Xiao Qiang was not very interested in ordinary pills.

After casually purchasing some more cost-effective pills and rare herbs, Xiao Qiang prepared to wait for the next Marrow Cleansing Pill.

That was Xiao Qiang's original thought, but he ultimately underestimated the alchemy skills of the Sun Moon Empire, or rather, the royal auction house of the Sun Moon Empire.

"Next, please welcome our seventh item, the Soul Skill Pill. This pill can activate a soul beast's innate soul skill. After feeding this pill to the soul beast, kill the soul beast within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and then the strongest soul skill of that soul beast's clan will most likely become your soul skill. The starting bid is one million gold soul coins."

Upon hearing the auctioneer's words on the screen, Xiao Qiang was utterly shocked.

Is this kind of elixir even possible in a place like Douluo Continent? It's more likely that the Dou Qi Continent could produce something like this!

"How exactly is this skill developed? Or is it even possible to develop it?"

"Honorable guest, it is said that this pill was originally made to ensure that the royal family could always possess a certain soul skill and to ensure that His Majesty the Emperor would always be strong. After all, there are not many powerful soul beasts on our side, so a master alchemist made this kind of pill." Ruoshui, who was next to Xiao Qiang, replied.

"I see. Two million. I'll take this one."

After confirming that the pill was reliable, Xiao Qiang decided to buy it and use it to help Ice Emperor awaken the Ice Explosion Technique.

Xiao Qiang didn't really want the left arm bone from the Ice Explosion Technique from the Star Luo Empire in the first place.

After all, it was only a 70,000-year-old soul bone. Compared to ordinary soul masters, this soul bone was indeed top-tier.

But if he were to ascend to the realm of gods in the future, that 70,000-year-old left arm bone would be a bit inadequate.

Xiao Qiang did not intend to follow Huo Yuhao's path, nor did he intend to learn his soul bone configuration. After all, even though Huo Yuhao was the chosen one, his soul bone configuration was far inferior to Tang San's.

Apart from the head bone, Tang San's torso bones are three million years old, and Huo Yuhao's are four hundred thousand years old.

Huo Yuhao's arms have a 70,000-year-old soul bone and a 100,000-year-old soul bone, while his legs have a soul bone that is only 10,000 years old. Compared to Tang San, Huo Yuhao is completely inferior except for his skull.

Xiao Qiang didn't want his soul bone foundation to be weaker than the enemies he might encounter in the future, so he didn't plan to follow Huo Yuhao's path.

However, Xiao Qiang did not want to follow Huo Yuhao's path. He did want the Ice Explosion Technique. He had no way to obtain it before, but fortunately, he could still buy the potion. Therefore, after confirming the details, Xiao Qiang prepared to buy the Soul Skill Pill without hesitation.

"Yes." Ruoshui responded and pressed the price increase button, directly raising the price to two million.

Because Xiao Qiang directly raised the price to two million, he bought the Soul Skill Pill. After several more items were auctioned, Xiao Qiang finally got the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

Just like the result Xiao Qiang got from Jing Yun before, Xiao Qiang only spent three million gold soul coins to buy the Marrow Cleansing Pill.

While Xiao Qiang was glad that he had asked beforehand, he was also glad that the teacher on his side was not the teacher in Tang Jia San Shao's novels.

If it were a teacher from Tang Jia San Shao's novels, he would probably say anything to deliberately trick Xiao Qiang and make him suffer a lesson that he himself could not bear.

In Douluo Continent III, Wu Changkong deliberately increased the difficulty for Tang Wulin even when there was no difficulty at all, and this was done when Tang Wulin could not afford the consequences of failure. However, the lesson he learned was completely useless, and Tang Wulin soon became rich again. It was all just to trick Tang Wulin for the sake of tricking him.

As for the forging teacher Tang Wulin initially apprenticed under, he was the worst of the worst. Each of Tang Wulin's works was worth 10,000 Federal Coins, but after working for him for three years, he only earned 30,000 Federal Coins. The tuition fee was ridiculously high. But that wasn't the worst part about the forging teacher.

As someone who rose from the bottom, Tang Wulin's forging teacher couldn't possibly be unaware of the consequences of having a white spirit ring as his first spirit ring. Given his status, he might not have access to the Spirit Ascension Platform. If he knew about the existence of the Spirit Ascension Platform, he would also know its price. However, under these circumstances, instead of lending Tang Wulin the money to buy a hundred-year spirit ring, he chose to completely ignore the matter.

No wonder Tang Wulin became a master craftsman later on, while he hadn't even reached the level of a saintly craftsman. Helping you is a favor, not helping you is his duty. Since Tang Wulin's teacher was just fulfilling his duty to teach Tang Wulin without accumulating any relationship with him, then Tang Wulin should also fulfill his duty to call him teacher. It wouldn't be a problem if he didn't give him any resources afterward.

He planned to suppress Tang Wulin and make him obedient for life, but he didn't expect that he would be unable to suppress him. Tang Wulin's talent was valued by many high-level blacksmiths. In the end, he became the disciple of a master craftsman and the teacher of a grandmaster craftsman. It can be said that he got his retribution for making the wrong choice.

After buying the Marrow Cleansing Pill, Xiao Qiang bought some other things, but just as he was about to pay and leave, an accident occurred.

"Is there anything I can help you with, Xiao Hongchen?" Seeing that Xiao Hongchen's swelling had subsided, Xiao Qiang couldn't help but marvel at how effective the healing medicines of the Sun Moon Empire were.

"Fight me."

"What?"

"I said, fight me."

Why?

"You beat me yesterday by accident, but I will definitely not lose to you again today."

"So you're going to beat me?"

Xiao Hongchen nodded firmly. "Yes."

"Oh, I surrender, you win." Xiao Qiang raised his hands, making a gesture of surrender, and prepared to leave.

"Stop right there! You're not leaving here until you beat me!"

"Big brother, I was wrong. Why should I, a three-ring Soul Master, compare myself to a four-ring Soul Grandmaster like you? Wouldn't I just be asking for a beating?"

"I won't let you get beaten up for nothing. You just have to fight me once, and win or lose, everything you buy this time will be paid for with my card."

As soon as Xiao Hongchen finished speaking, he saw Xiao Qiang, who had been fleeing in panic, stop in his tracks. Then, Xiao Qiang retreated to Xiao Hongchen's side without changing his expression.

Are you serious?

"Of course, would I, Xiao Hongchen, go back on my word? Besides, you've only just become my grandfather's disciple, how much money could you possibly have spent?"

"Distinguished Guest Xiao Qiang, this transaction totals 12.3 million Gold Soul Coins. May I ask who swiped the card?"

Laughing at the World: "..."
