Chapter Seventy-Seven: The Wonderful Tradition of Auctions
So, is it okay to go to this auction that obviously popped up out of nowhere?
And it doesn't cost money, of course it's going!
Huo Yuhao vaguely remembered that the Soul Devouring Carving Knife containing the gold of living beings was not unveiled at the top auction, but appeared in the auction where Wang Yan took Shrek and everyone to purchase soul guides after the first round of the round-robin tournament, and was finally picked up by Huo Hang at the reserve price.
With Huo Yuhao's understanding of the auction house, it would not be strange for him to be placed on such a specially advertised auction house by them, trying to sell it for a good price.
In case, I'm afraid that in case, if I really miss such a big baby, Huo Yuhao will lose a lot.
That night, everyone from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy gathered to discuss if there were any gaps in the tactics available in the round-robin.
"It is not allowed to use a high-kill soul guide that relies on materials to win by using a fixed soul guide, is there a more specific definition of this provision?"
Facing the question raised by Huo Yuhao, Yu Yu explained: "In a general sense, this 'fixed soul guide' specifically refers to the fixed soul guide cannon that uses the fixed soul guide shell to attack. ”
"The lethality of the fixed soul guide cannon mainly comes from the cannonball, and the body only plays a firing role, and the specific amount of damage can be caused is mainly determined by the material and process used in the cannonball itself, and has nothing to do with the ability of the soul master himself. For reasons of safety, spectatorship and fairness, the prohibition of the use of such weapons is a codified rule. ”
Huo Yuhao nodded: "So, it seems that the soul guide mortar combat method that I have put a lot of effort into still can't be used?" ”
Yu Yu couldn't help laughing: "You have to leave someone else a way to live, if the cannonball, a high-destruction weapon that can be prepared in advance, is used unlimitedly, then the game will be completely messed up." ”
"For example, we don't hesitate to wear a defensive soul guide, and then put on several layers of invincible shields, we don't need to be level nine, as long as we put the level eight fixed soul guide shells outside, tell others not to surrender, we will detonate them, see who is afraid of whom, do we still have to fight this game?"
Everyone laughed for a while, and Xiao Hongchen even smiled maliciously: "Teacher Yu, you must have brought something this time in case of an accident, right?" ”
Yu Yu patted the table: "I tell you, don't think that you have no fear, those things are used as a last resort to prepare for the death of the fish, and those things that can blow up half of Xingluo City are not on me, don't think about pitting me." ”
Xiao Hongchen: "It's not on you, teacher, that is, someone did bring it over?" ”
Yu Yu snorted coldly: "Nonsense, you big babies are all here, if there are three long and two short, there will be countless people in the country who will go crazy, I said that no one will secretly protect you on this trip, believe it or not?" ”
"If I hadn't known that someone would come forward to mediate and support at the last moment, do you think that when I said so many rebellious words in front of Xu Jiawei in the morning, I would still be able to blush and breathe? But today's experience was quite exciting, and I hope there won't be a next time. ”
"Oh, and Yuhao, if you didn't play today, the role of the last second provocation should have been played by Ma Rulong, but you took away his luck, even if Xu Jiawei can't remember Ma Rulong and Xiao Hongchen, he will definitely remember you!"
Everyone in the room burst into laughter again.
Huo Yuhao pulled the topic back in time: "If you can't use the custom-installed soul guide shell, won't the experimental soul guide ray gun we prepared directly powered by a milk bottle also work?" ”
"This ...... Actually, the positioning is rather vague, but I suggest not using it, lest the referee find an excuse to punish us heavily. Anyway, you know how to get around this restriction, and at best it's a little more troublesome and dangerous. ”
…………
The three-day knockout round ended in a chaotic battle, and although there were occasional upsets, the five seeded teams that were expected to compete for the title all advanced smoothly and took a short break to prepare for the next round robin.
The 67 teams are divided into eight groups of eight to nine teams each, and the top two teams advance to the round of 16 after all the opponents in the group have played each other once.
On the night of the end of the knockout round, Hall 12 of the Starlight Auction House was undoubtedly full, as long as you held a flyer, you could enter the auction to participate, even if the team was not interested in replenishing the soul guide, it sent one or two people to see if the other teams had quietly bought any killer ideas, so as to make targeted arrangements.
The four people who came to join in the fun from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Master Academy were Yu Yu, Huo Yuhao and Hongchen brothers and sisters.
There are only 200 fixed seats in Hall 12 of the Starlight Auction Hall, and on average, each participating team can only be divided into three.
"Teacher, what's the use of giving us a mask to wear at the auction house, and it's not a robe to cover up the whole body, the physical characteristics are so obvious, just such a team, who doesn't know who?"
The four people who came to line up early received masks from the auction house to "hide their identities", but Huo Yuhao couldn't help but complain.
"I don't know what's the use, most auction houses are to give a mask to hide your identity, it's a tradition."
Yu Yu put the mask on his face and muttered as well.
It's not a good mask, but you still have to wear it in order to fit in.
"You proposed to come to this auction, if it weren't for you, as soon as we appeared, it would be equivalent to showing your identity to others."
Yu Yu's words were a little foggy, there was no way, an auction hall that could only accommodate two hundred people had to squeeze more than sixty teams to send personnel, in this case, the content of talking to each other was simply equivalent to the whole picture broadcast, and if you didn't say it vaguely, others could directly guess your identity.
"I'm planning to come by myself, so I'll just report to you." Huo Yuhao said.
"I'm not at ease! And with you, it's not a problem for us to keep our identities secret. ”
As he spoke, Yu Yu glanced at the Hongchen brothers and sisters who had already found a seat to sit down.
They were all within the range of Huo Yuhao's simulated soul skills, and Huo Yuhao changed the physical characteristics of the four of them, especially the iconic silver hair of the Hongchen brothers and sisters, and the white hair was an eye-catching existence in any scene.
The image of the two has been tampered with with black hair, which makes Huo Yuhao quite unaccustomed to looking at it.
With a simple sweep of the spirit detection sharing, the four of them found that almost all the teams that had qualified had appeared, even the Douling Royal Academy, which had already achieved an invincible shield for everyone.
As for Shrek, Wang Yan, who has always wanted to change the academy's prejudice against soul guides starting with the participating teams, made an appearance unsurprisingly, and even had a pink hair that could be recognized at a glance.
"Calm down, brother, clean him up when you get to the arena."
Because he didn't want to reveal his identity, Meng Hongchen also had to pay attention to the details of the title.
After a short time, when everyone who should have arrived had already entered the venue and the time had reached the scheduled opening time, the door of Hall 12 closed, and the auctioneer in a purple dress walked up to the stage from the side of the auction room, and the lights of the whole room focused on her.
"Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I am Qingya, the purple-level auctioneer of Starlight Auction House, and I will preside over this auction today."
After speaking, she walked out of the auction and bowed to the audience with a smile, and everyone gave a round of applause.
Meng Hongchen's attention was on the upcoming lots.
Xiao Hongchen's attention was on the masked Pink Fur at the opposite Shrek's position.
There was a fierce glint in his eyes.
