Chapter 15 The Auction

In Yuming City, a young man who looked to be twelve or thirteen years old walked slowly on the crowded streets, carrying a dark and shabby backpack that was not too big, with fair skin, a slender figure, black hair and sword eyebrows, and a slightly immature appearance that had begun to show his beauty.

He was looking around curiously, feeling the novelty of the unusual atmosphere of Yuming City, obviously this was the first time he had come here.

This young man, it was Su Xiu, after five days of robbery by the soul master, he finally left the border area of the Ming Dou Mountain Range and came to the Star Luo Empire, which was adjacent to the westernmost city of the Heavenly Soul Empire, Yuming City.

Yuming City was different from most other cities that Su Xiu knew, there were almost no people living here, except for the city administrators, most of the rest were some foreign soul masters, so there weren't too many tall buildings, except for a few necessary official institutions, and a magnificent auction hall in the central area.

It is also the coming and going of various soul masters that has gradually formed a unique city where trade is prevalent, and countless uneven stone stalls have been built throughout the city.

Walking in the center of the dense stalls, Su Xiu was an eye-opener, he never thought that there would be such a huge trading area here, and everywhere he looked, there were all the figures of the vendors, and he couldn't see the boundary at all, which made him feel indescribably shocked.

With money in his hand, he didn't panic, and there were hundreds of thousands of gold soul coins in the storage soul guide in Su Xiu's hand, which was already a lot of money among low-level soul masters, so Su Xiu suddenly became interested and had the desire to take a look.

As for where the storage soul guides and golden soul coins came from, of course, they took in the things on the bodies of the two soul masters one by one.

It is worthy of a pair of murderers who can rob houses and houses all the way, and they really carry a lot of valuable things on them, especially the last soul venerable, and there is even a storage soul guide bracelet!

Even Su Xiu couldn't help but be overjoyed, but it was really murder and arson, and there were no corpses when he built bridges and paved roads.

Among these countless vendors, there are all kinds of strange and mixed items.

There are materials from soul beasts, weapons created exclusively, all kinds of precious elixirs, pills from exclusive, all kinds of precious metal ores, broken old things, strange treasure maps, and stolen goods of unknown origin, and so on.

Good and bad, true and false, all kinds of profiteers blackmail, all kinds of things you and I want, almost only you can't think of it, and there are all kinds of things that you can't see.

Of course, he didn't just take a look here, but he also stopped in front of various stalls of interest, and tried to bargain for what he wanted.

It's just that Su Xiu and his two lives together are less than thirty years old, and they are not very mature and shrewd at all, plus they don't have enough knowledge, and the stalls here are not those street vendors in ordinary areas, almost all of them have been abducted and deceived by a hundred battles, and they have all become elites.

Therefore, in the beginning, he was often blackmailed in various ways, and it often cost several times the price to buy a thing.

However, this is only the beginning, after various observation and study, he quickly mastered all kinds of bargaining methods, and was rarely blackmailed.

Here, Su Xiu deeply felt the fun, not only the fighting spirit of bargaining with those vendors, but also the curiosity of opening blind boxes in various vendors, which made him want to stop, and he tossed and turned for six or seven hours, until he finally came to the central area of Yuming City, and then stopped.

Walking out of the bustling and lively street vendor area, I came to the central area of Yuming City, and the surrounding area suddenly became empty.

It is surrounded by a huge circle of circular staircases, and there are no stone stalls, only a few magnificent tall buildings in the very center.

One is the castle-like fortress officially guarded by the Star Luo Empire, located in the center of the central area of the circle, high above.

The other is an incomparably grand auction hall made entirely of smooth and pitch-black cold rock, with a square base at the bottom of the entire auction hall, open on all sides like a pyramid, and the layers are progressive.

The main part is a huge and magnificent hemispherical building, and the circular outer wall can be seen with dense square boxes protruding, probably hundreds of thousands.

Su Xiu looked up at this huge and magnificent spherical auction, his eyes were shocked, but unfortunately it was not the time for the auction to be held.

According to the information he inquired, the reason why Yuming City was named after Yuming was because Yuming City was originally established by a Contra powerhouse of the Star Luo Empire.

And that Contra is famous all over the world because he can control the light martial soul of the light attribute, and it is rumored that he can resist the attack of a strong man in the Heavenly Soul Empire who has just broken through the title Douluo with the realm of Contra, without suffering too much damage and being able to escape.

After that, I don't know why, the two countries of Xingluo Heavenly Soul established diplomatic relations and gradually became friendly, so he established such a city near the border of Xingluo Heavenly Soul and the two countries just for trading.

And this Yuming auction was later named in honor of him, once every three months, and there is almost no threshold, as long as you are a soul master, as long as you have gold soul coins, you can participate.

And the next auction is just two days away.

Su Xiu also wanted to see the auction of this Douluo Continent and increase his experience, so he went to the northern area behind Yuming City to find a hotel and stayed.

Two days later.

In front of the auction in the central area of Yuming City, there were dense people coming and going, all of whom were soul masters with various identities hidden and their bodies occluded.

Su Xiu was also wearing a pitch-black robe engraved with some special magic circles, which could shield most of the low-level soul masters from prying eyes, and the robe was stuffed with fabric, looking much bloated and taller, no longer like a nine-year-old child.

He blended into the crowd and walked towards the auction.

In the past two days, Su Xiu has hardly left the hotel, and has been meditating and cultivating, after all, the cultivation of the soul master is not overnight, it is necessary to persevere and endure loneliness, which is also what he has always done.

Ever since he knew that this was the Douluo Continent, he began to spur himself on, never slackening, even when he was in a hurry before, he replaced his rest with meditation on the way.

Walking into the auction hall with the crowd, it seemed that I had crossed two worlds, and the people around me could no longer hear people's words, all of them were noisy roars, which made my ears buzz, and my head was dizzy, and it took a while to get used to it.

If you look closely, the interior of the auction is like a bird's nest from a previous life, with a circular platform in the middle, held high and hovering in the center of the spherical building, so that all areas can be seen.

Neatly arranged in a circle, there are layers of box seats stacked upwards around the entire auction venue.

I found an empty private room at random, but it was only four or five meters in size, without any gorgeous decorations, only rows of sofa seats, but it also looked simple and simple.

Sit down at the front near the ledge of the floor-to-ceiling windowsill, watch the people coming and going, and wait quietly for the auction to begin.

It is worthy of the Yuming auction once every three months, Su Xiu has never seen so many figures at one time, and all of them are soul masters, almost all of them are active in the border area of the Heaven Dou Heavenly Soul Empire.

Until now, Su Xiu felt all kinds of shocks.

However, this mood did not last long, and soon it was 9 o'clock in the morning, and the auction officially began!

"Ahem! Cough! ”

Suddenly, an incomparably loud sound in the auction hall that suppressed all the noise exploded in everyone's ears.

"Welcome guests, friends, the March Yuming Auction has officially begun!"

"Presumably, many of the guests are already regular visitors here, and they all know the rules here, and they can't wait, so I won't talk nonsense."

"The second auction of the year in Yuming City starts now!"

As the auction officially began, the whole scene suddenly became quiet, and attention was paid to the platform in the center of the spherical building, where the auction opened.

A middle-aged man dressed in dazzling white stood there, holding a push plate with a square wooden box the size of a human head on it, and opened it to see that it was a strange plant the size of a fiery red palm.

"Let's take a look at the first lot!"

"That's the Flame Grass!"

"Maybe you don't know what this Flame Grass is, but its effect must be able to make you crazy, especially for low-level soul masters of the fire attribute."

"This Flame Grass can speed up the cultivation speed of a low-level soul master with a water attribute, and it can last for a month, and it has an effect below the Soul King!"

"How's that, isn't it very exciting!"

"Don't be afraid to spend money, what you get in exchange is a rapid increase in soul power, and a rapid increase in strength!"

"You can't buy it, you can't be fooled, you only need five hundred gold soul coins, and you can enjoy the improvement of your strength!"

"So have all the fire attribute soul masters paid attention? The first Flame Grass auction is now open! ”

As soon as the auctioneer's passionate voice fell, the entire auction suddenly boiled, and hundreds of people began to gear up.

Su Xiu was amazed, he didn't expect that this first auction item was a cherished elixir like Yan Yan Grass that could speed up his cultivation, and his hand was really big.

Even if he had a trace of heartbeat, if it weren't for the fact that it could only have an effect on a single pure fire attribute soul master, he couldn't help but want to participate in the auction of this elixir, after all, who is not rare in an elixir that can increase the speed of cultivation?

"One thousand gold soul coins! I'm going to settle on this scorching grass! ”

A black-robed figure with an emaciated physique stood, speaking wildly, bound to win.

"Fifteen hundred! Such a treasure must be mine! ”

However, almost in the next second, someone began to offer again, and the number increased by five hundred at once, but this was only the beginning of the auction!

"Two thousand seven hundred gold soul coins!"

"Three thousand three hundred gold soul coins!"

"Four thousand five hundred gold soul coins!"

"Five thousand gold soul coins!"

"Five thousand four hundred gold soul coins!"

"Six thousand one hundred gold soul coins!"

"Seven thousand eight hundred gold soul coins!"

The competition among hundreds of people is so fierce, often the price is just quoted one second, and the next moment it is surpassed by others, and the number of Golden Soul Coins has been rising!

In the end, it is no longer even a competition according to demand, and they are all angry, with hundreds of thousands of price increases, eager to overwhelm each other in terms of financial resources and win the championship in one fell swoop!

Fortunately, this first auction item was just an appetizer, and everyone present knew that there were more precious items in the future, and they were trying their best to restrain themselves and did not increase the price aggressively.

In the end, it was added to eight thousand gold soul coins, and almost all of them gave up, except for those soul masters who especially wanted this scorching grass.

Finally, this first auction item, Yan Yan Cao, was successfully bid by the black-robed mysterious man in the bottom corner at a high price of 8,500 gold soul coins.

The first appetizer was almost overbid, and it got off to a good start, and the auctioneers on the high platform were almost smiling from ear to ear.
