Douluo Huo Yuhao: My Clone is Too Self-Disciplined

He had heard of this thing before. Although he wasn't interested in this kind of engraving knife, since he wasn't a Soul Master, this Soul Devouring Blood Blade was indeed too bizarre.

It seems that when he came back last year, this thing kept failing to sell at auction, and it still hasn't been sold yet, which is really unbelievable.

Moreover, the price has remained unchanged, with the starting bid always being 100,000 gold soul coins.

So this has become a mascot for Starlight Auction House?
But this is also unlucky.

The auction was in full swing, and soon it came to this engraving knife used for listing items.

Upon seeing the knife, the auctioneer's face immediately showed a helpless expression, and then he said generously, "Distinguished guests, what you see here is a listed engraving knife, the Soul-Devouring Blood Blade, that has been unsold at our auction house for several years."

"Many of our long-term customers have heard of the reputation of this knife, but today we will explain it to some of our new valued customers."

"This carving knife is ranked eighty-ninth, which is very high. It is an extremely powerful carving knife." However, after the auctioneer finished speaking, he immediately shook his head, sighed, and continued, "Unfortunately, this carving knife is a bit of an ominous knife."

"Every owner of this knife has a short life, because this knife is a vicious knife that devours its owner's life. Without great strength, it is impossible to suppress it, let alone use the carving knife to carve a soul tool."

"That's why it keeps failing to sell at auction. But our auction house puts it up for auction every now and then. It's because although this knife has many flaws, it is an extremely fine carving knife in terms of both material and craftsmanship."

Even if you don't use it, it's nice to buy it as a souvenir. Our auction house's advice regarding this knife is that you can buy it for your collection, but we do not recommend using it.

That concludes all I wanted to say. Starlight Auction House operates on the principle of integrity, relying on honest business practices. If any item has any flaws or defects, even if it leads to the item failing to sell, we will explain everything clearly and never tarnish the auction house's reputation.

"Now, we will officially begin the auction. The starting price is 100,000 gold soul coins. The highest bidder wins. After ten minutes, everyone can place their bids freely."

After the auctioneer explained everything clearly, an uproar broke out in every room, with various opinions. Some Soul Masters were already itching to make a move, but the side effects of the Soul Devouring Blood Blade made them hesitant.

One hundred thousand gold soul coins is not a small amount of money, so it's best to save it if possible. After all, there are just too many things that require money to become a Soul Master.

The statement that every powerful Soul Master is built on a foundation of money is not wrong.

Although Soul Masters are wealthy, the initial investment costs are too high, so high investment is necessary for high returns.

Ten minutes passed in a flash, but the number on the screen remained unchanged at 100,000 gold soul coins.

The auctioneer looked disappointed; it seemed this item was going to fail to sell again.

However, this is all reasonable. After all, who would want to spend money to buy an ancestor to worship?

I bet there isn't a single person like that!
Moreover, 100,000 gold coins is not a small number.

He was already preparing to remove the item from the auction and move it to the next auction.

But at that moment, the number on the screen suddenly jumped and reached 100,001 gold soul coins.

Although only one item was added, it means that this item is finally going to be sold.

This Soul-Devouring Blood Blade, which had been unsold for several years and was notoriously difficult to acquire, is finally going to be sold.

God knows how excited the auctioneer was.

Although the starting bid for this item is only 100,000 gold soul coins, it's not exactly a particularly valuable item.

However, the meaning can be completely different.

His sale of this treasure is considered a brilliant achievement in the entire auction house.

It's not very useful, but it's good for showing off. He began to feel grateful to the person who had bid.

However, just when he thought the Soul Devouring Blood Blade was going to be sold for 100,001 gold soul coins, the number on the screen suddenly jumped again.

It turned into 200,000 gold soul coins.

At first, the auctioneer thought it was just an addition of one gold soul coin, making it 100,002 gold soul coins, but when he realized what was going on, he found out.

The number that becomes two is not the last number, but the first number.

Someone actually added 100,000 gold soul coins in one go!
He suddenly felt a sense of panic.

After all, he was worried that the insiders might be driving up the price, taking advantage of any bids to raise the price and prevent the item from selling at the lowest possible price.

These are all common tactics used by every auction house.

But they would only ask for 10,000 or 20,000; I've never seen anyone double the price.

Could this not be an inside job? Did they really run into a money-making machine?
He might make a fortune today.

"Two hundred thousand gold soul coins, anyone else want to bid?"

The atmosphere during the auction was incredibly exciting, and now everyone in the room who was participating in the bidding was focused, staring at the numbers on the screen and at the Soul-Devouring Blood Blade, their faces showing curiosity and hesitation.

They started to have their own plans.

First of all, a major auction house like Starlight Auction House would not maliciously inflate prices.

Secondly, all the rooms here are sealed, and no one will know the auctioneer's information, so there is naturally no possibility of hostile forces maliciously raising prices.

In other words, some people genuinely believe that this Soul-Devouring Blood Blade is worth 200,000 Gold Soul Coins.

Or perhaps someone really desperately needs this deadly weapon.

Perhaps they could acquire it and then resell it at a higher price.

Soon, the numbers on the screen began to jump rapidly again, rising from 200,000 gold soul coins to 300,000 gold soul coins.

That finally stopped the crazy surge!

However, just when everyone felt that 300,000 was the limit, suddenly, the number on the screen jumped from 300,000 to 3 million.

At this, everyone in the auction room stood up, staring in shock at the numbers on the screen.

Of course, they wouldn't care about a mere three million, but what shocked them wasn't the three million itself, but the fact that the numbers on it started jumping in the millions.

four million!
five million!
Six million!
……

With each beat, people's hearts clench, because it's just too exaggerated!
Which two tycoons are secretly competing?

This Soul-Devouring Blood Blade is actually worth such a high price? They wanted to compete, but unfortunately, they couldn't afford it at the current price.
