Meng Hongchen looked at Yu Yu and Huo Yuhao, who were plotting how to build the Starlight Auction House, and snorted coldly: "Sure enough, men are not good at anything."
"You guys can continue to discuss your shameful plans. I'm still young and can't hear these things."
As they were walking, Meng Hongchen paused before he could open the door to the VIP room, turned around and caught Huo Yuhao.
"Wait a minute, since it is said that Ultimate Ice can increase the power of ice attribute soul masters, does it mean that it can improve my ice attributes to a point very close to Ultimate Ice?"
Huo Yuhao's eyes wandered: "Hmm... that should be it, right? Maybe in the eyes of outsiders, there is essentially no difference between it and Ultimate Ice. Anyway, they are better than other ice attribute soul masters."
Panic suddenly flashed in Meng Hongchen's eyes: "Then wasn't my Bing Ming Tong Snow Crown bought for nothing? More than four million!"
"Senior Meng is different, the Bingmingtong Snow Crown is yours to use whenever you want..."
"Isn't this the same thing? I don't expect this thing to be of any use outside the arena. Aren't you always available on the arena?"
Huo Yuhao:......
"By the way, Yuhao, since you are the ultimate ice, does that mean you can help me keep the Bingmingtong Snow Crown fresh and extend its shelf life? In terms of the effect of improving attributes, the Bingmingtong Snow Crown is not as good as you!"
"Senior Meng, I am not a refrigerator..."
"It doesn't matter, you are now."
Huo Yuhao watched Meng Hongchen take out the silver-white tiara from the storage ring that she used to show off from time to time as a treasure, and solemnly handed it into his hands.
"It's up to you to maintain it, Yuhao! The ability to turn ice into snow might be useful in the future."
Huo Yuhao reluctantly accepted the Bingmingtong Snow Crown.
How come I, an ultimate ice genius soul master, can become a power bank?
After the three of them opened the door and returned to the bedroom, the ten minutes of appreciation time was coming to an end.
Xiao Hongchen complained to Qingya that their auction was not going well. Up to now, there were no auction items suitable for him. Qingya could only apologize with a smile and expressed her welcome to come again next time.
Of course there will be no chance of him coming back next time. Xiao Hongchen is just so bored that he teases Qingya Auctioneer.
"Okay, stop making trouble. We have decided on this soul bone. Everyone should eat and drink."
Yu Yu set an example and started eating fruit as soon as he sat down. Meng Hongchen and Huo Yuhao successfully reached an agreement in a few minutes, which saved him a lot of trouble. With a capital reserve of 300 million gold soul coins, it can be said that he has almost unlimited ammunition. Financial resources gave him sufficient confidence.
It’s so cool to swipe the academy’s card to install your own beep!
"The eighth item in this auction, the left arm bone of the Ice Jade Scorpion, has a starting price of 12 million gold soul coins, and each increase in price must not be less than 50,000 gold soul coins!"
As soon as Jiujiu finished speaking, the highest price displayed on the soul guide screen kept climbing up.
When the price climbed to fifteen million, Yu Yu nodded: "It seems it's time for me to take action."
"Eighteen million!"
Yu Yu directly doubled the increase since the bidding began, with no intention of engaging in a war of attrition.
"Teacher Yu, you are too aggressive." Huo Yuhao couldn't find a suitable adjective when he looked at Yu Yu's unchanging expression and didn't take the offer seriously.
Yu Yu grabbed an apple and turned it around in his hand: "Why do I care so much? The card I swiped is from the college, and I am not the one who pays for the reimbursement in the end. Whoever uses this soul bone will pay for it himself. You think so, Xiaomeng?"
Meng Hongchen nodded, with an understanding smile on his face.
"Teacher Yu is right. Someone else may not be able to repay this amount of money after working for several lifetimes, but it is not a huge expense for grandpa. Besides, getting this soul bone is of great significance to the entire country. , it’s not too much to consider it a strategic investment.”
Huo Yuhao felt that the situation seemed a little bad. These two people were obviously talking in slang that only they and Huo Yuhao could understand.
I'm used to having prostitutes for free, but I haven't really thought about it recently that I have to pay them back in the future. Isn't it enough that when I grow up, I can complete the tasks of my superiors step by step and contribute my own strength?
You can't really ask me to settle the account with cash, and if I can't pay it off, I can just work for the rest of my life and pay for it, right?
Absolutely don’t do that kind of thing!
Yu Yu's 18 million had an immediate effect. The doubling of the increase directly ended the bidding competition. No one dared to bid again until it was announced for a long time that the bidding for the current lot was over.
In the original work, Emperor Xingluo spent 30 million on his own to double the total price. That approach was left-handed and right-handed. It made no sense from a financial point of view. The actual effect was that the auction failed.
There are two points in the original work: the purchasing power of one gold soul coin is equivalent to one hundred and fifty loaves of bread, and Xu Jiawei's 30 million gold soul coins are enough to buy a medium-sized city.
In other words, the price of the ice jade scorpion soul bone is equivalent to 4.5 billion loaves of bread - based on the average price of bread of 5 yuan, it is approximately equivalent to the 22.5 billion yuan before Huo Yuhao's soul passed through.
What is this concept?
Known as a "house price depression", a certain post in a low-income administrative city in Northeast China with almost no hematopoietic function has an annual GDP of about 35 billion...
This is just the wealth created in one year. "Buying a city" must be calculated based on the wealth accumulated in the past hundred years.
Well, age productivity gap, long live understanding!
If the ice jade scorpion soul bones compete normally, this is the current result. Eighteen million is enough.
"Xiao Meng, this soul bone belongs to you. Although it is the college's account for the time being, you still have to raise money as soon as possible to make up for the funding gap after you return."
"I know, Teacher Yu, no one would be stupid enough to forget such a large amount of money."
Huo Yuhao's eyes drifted to one side and he ignored the two people's singing.
I remember that I took advantage of your soul bone, which is worth nearly 20 million gold soul coins. Please stop whipping the corpse.
The ownership of the ice jade scorpion soul bone was finally settled, which made Ling Luochen from the Shrek Academy next door quite discouraged.
Wealth is not as good as people, and she has to be dissatisfied. She is not as valuable as Huo Guai in the original work for Emperor Xingluo to personally use his soul bone to befriend her.
When it came to the last auction item, the legendary mainland treasure that had never been seen before, Xu Jiujiu also left the auction and changed into a golden auctioneer uniform to show his solemnity.
A white tray appeared on the soul guide screen, and Xu Jiujiu also began to introduce the origin of this most important item in the auction.
"Feng Shen Tai?" Yu Yu frowned.
"How come I haven't heard of this ninth-level soul guidance device... You even dare to sell a ninth-level soul guidance device? This is beyond description of lawlessness!"
When Xu Jiujiu mentioned that "the 100,000-year-old soul beast embryo that had just been reincarnated into a human being was sealed in the Conferred God Platform," Huo Yuhao clearly felt that the breathing rhythm of everyone in the whole room was a little disturbed.
No one doesn't understand what it means to be the embryo of a hundred thousand year old soul beast when it reincarnates into a human being. This may be the closest they have ever come to possessing a hundred thousand year old soul ring and soul bone!
"Strange, why do I feel that the tray gives me a very familiar feeling?"
After a brief moment of anger, the Ice Emperor fell into confusion.
How could she feel familiar with a sealed 100,000-year-old soul beast?
Huo Yuhao thought about his words: "Do you think there is a possibility that the hundred thousand year old soul beast inside is actually the Snow Emperor in the far north who is even more powerful than the Ice Emperor?"
"You, Ice Emperor, were able to transform into my martial spirit under various chances and coincidences. The Snow Emperor's capture is much easier to understand than what happened to you. Even if it really happened, it would be reasonable, right?"
"Impossible, absolutely impossible!" Ice Emperor waved his hand and flatly denied it.
"Yu Hao, you may not understand that we soul beasts can only choose to transform into adults when we face the first hundred thousand year catastrophe. If we give up this opportunity, we will only be able to work hard to become ferocious beasts in the future. The road ends in darkness!”
"Because after being reincarnated into a human being, not only the lifespan is extremely short compared to that of a soul beast, but there is also a huge risk of exposure before the seventh ring. Except for a very small number of soul beasts with poor bloodline who have no hope of surviving the tribulation, there are no hundred thousand year soul beasts that will survive the tribulation." Choose the latter between heavenly calamity and transformation into an adult."
"What's more, the Snow Emperor has been cultivating for nearly 700,000 years, and has long since lost the opportunity to choose to transform into an adult. As for my sense of familiarity... maybe what is sealed inside is a 100,000-year-old beast from the far north. Soul beast?"
"But this is also very strange. Any soul beast in the far north whose cultivation level is within a thousand years of a hundred thousand years, the Snow Emperor and I both know it, and will even help them overcome the catastrophe. Obviously, it is very strange." There should be no such existence in the Northern Land in recent years..."
It makes so much sense!
But which ferocious beast's chances can be predicted based on common sense?
Based on universal rationality, normal soul beasts cannot even pass the one hundred thousand year barrier.
