Douluo 2: The sickly sister is the group's favorite

Chapter 87 Starlight Auction House

Although He Caitou was unable to participate in the competition, he was able to make lollipops as a backup for the contestants.

The competition was on the next morning. After Wang Yan finished speaking, he went back to his room to prepare. After the others had determined the general battle plan, they also got busy.

Only Yao Haoxuan and the other two remained where they were. Huo Yuxi waited until Huo Yuhao had gone far away before saying to them, “You have to wait. I can’t use my soul power for the time being.”

Worried that they would think he was kidding, he added, "But I will recover before the end of the game, and you will definitely be able to go on stage."

"It doesn't matter if we can't." Xixi rubbed her head. "Teacher Wang is right. At least we are still alive. Even if we can't play, the victory will definitely belong to us Shrek."

Yao Haoxuan felt a little disappointed, but after hearing what Xixi said, he finally came to terms with it. He was just greedy. "Yeah, just go with the flow."

Gong Yangmo was afraid that she was under a lot of pressure, so he comforted her, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Your injuries are more serious than ours. Although you will recover quickly, there will inevitably be other side effects."

"Uh-huh."

Huo Yuxi returned to the room. She looked at the statue of the goddess and asked, "Goddess, when will my soul power be unsealed?"

The Soul-Eating Spider was lying listlessly in the Sea of Spirit, holding the soul of the soul beast that it had dug up in Shrek Academy before, without answering this question.

A gentle and firm female voice replied: "Your external injuries healed quickly, but there is still the power of the evil soul master in your body. Little guy, you need enough time to absorb it, and your body must slowly adapt."

"Unless you find a very strong light attribute soul bone now, you will have to wait a long time."

Huo Yuxi sighed and lay on the bed in a big letter shape. Where could she find a soul bone with light attribute now? If it was so easy to find, she could make a fortune with it.

The soul bones in Douluo Continent are limited. For thousands of years, soul masters have slaughtered soul beasts wantonly, causing their numbers to decline rapidly, and soul bones are even harder to come by.

After being in a daze for a while, Huo Yuxi went out at dinner time and found a stranger. It was a woman, not very old, wearing a classical cheongsam that highlighted her figure to the fullest.

Seeing her come out, the woman smiled and nodded to greet her, then said, "I'm sorry to bother you. If you have time, you are welcome to attend the auction tonight."

After saying that, he turned around, closed the door and left.

Huo Yuxi was full of questions, "What auction?"

“The Xingluo Empire is holding a top-level auction tonight.” Huo Yuhao explained to her, “We used the Shrek Academy account to pay last time, so they knew our identities. In order to express our apologies for our neglect last time, we specially came to invite you.”

Wang Yan narrowed his eyes as he looked at the invitation. "It really is worthy of being the Starlight Auction House. They actually ignored the official blockade of the hotel by the Empire and sent an invitation."

As the eldest son of the Duke's Mansion, Dai Yueheng undoubtedly knew the most about this. He picked up the paper on the table and confirmed it, saying, "It is indeed a top auction."

“This kind of auction is only held once a year, and the guests invited are my father and members of the royal family. The items inside are expensive, but they are all top-notch items.”

"I didn't expect them to move the auction forward to tonight this year. It seems like they want to build good relations with the promoted colleges."

Huo Yuxi’s eyes lit up. A top-level auction sounded very impressive. Maybe there would be spirit bones there?
"Then shall we go?"

Zhou Yi was frustrated by her expectant expression and said with a smile, "Let's go. We have a competition tomorrow, so we can go buy some things we need."

"Yeah." Xiao Xiao was the first to jump up. She had been injured for so long and had been confined to her room to recuperate that she was almost moldy.

Besides, at their age, they can’t refuse such new things.

After the meal, the group headed to the Starlight Auction House. Huo Yuxi was extremely excited along the way, and Huo Yuhao thought she was curious because she had never seen it before, so he also cooperated with her introduction.

She didn't calm down until she saw the auctioneer Qingya in the evening. Everyone let the waiter lead them to Room 7 of the highest-level auction hall No. 1.

Seeing that there were two beautiful sisters in the room, Huo Yuxi acted coquettishly with his face, and in a short while, he became familiar with them.

After Xu Sanshi came in, his eyes were also fixed, after all, who doesn't like to look at beautiful women. However, after feeling Jiang Nannan's cold eyes, he honestly withdrew his gaze.

When one of them poured him some water, Huo Yuxi quietly asked, "Sister, what are the items for auction today?"

The girl smiled and said, "Auctioneer Qingya will introduce them to you later. You can eat something first and wait."

Everyone had just finished their meal and had no interest in these things. But Huo Yuxi was different. She didn't like the food here very much, but these snacks were very attractive to her.

Huo Yuhao originally said that she ate too little, but now that he saw her eating, he felt relieved. After all, eating snacks is also eating.

There were also colorful drinks on the table. Huo Yuxi tried them one by one, and shared the ones he found delicious with everyone.

She didn't put down her things until the auction officially started and focused on the auction table. But she was more interested in the auctioneer than the items.

Qingya had just finished explaining the auction items to everyone. After noticing her gaze, she explained, "Auctioneer Jiujiu is the younger sister of the current emperor, and she is also the only gold-level auctioneer in our auction house."

"She is wearing a golden auctioneer dress, which means that this auction will have items worth more than hundreds of millions of gold coins. Distinguished guests can look forward to it."

After that, the auction officially began. Huo Yuxi found that there were high-level soul bones in the auction items, but they did not have the light attribute that he wanted.

So her interest has never been high.

It was not until the eighth lot that Huo Yuxi took a closer look and saw that it was a piece of emerald green right arm bone. After the auctioneer's introduction, he learned that it was dropped by the overlord of the Far North, the Ice Jade Scorpion.

She frowned and looked at Huo Yuhao. Apart from Huo Yuhao, she was the only one who knew that the Ice Emperor was now in Huo Yuhao’s sea of consciousness.

Seeing the soul bones of my own people...

Auctioneer Qingya did not notice anything wrong with them and explained diligently: "The fusion of this Ice Jade Scorpion's right arm bone has restrictions. It must be absorbed by an ice attribute soul master. It is a heavyweight auction item."

Huo Yuxi immediately guessed that there would be a lot of ice-attribute soul masters coming to the auction. Merchants value profit and would never give up such a good opportunity to make money.

Huo Yuhao’s second martial soul is the Ice Jade Scorpion. If he can obtain this soul bone, the degree of compatibility will naturally be beyond doubt.

But Ling Luochen also has ice attribute and only has one soul bone.

They must negotiate the ownership before Wang Yan and Zhou Yi can come forward to fight for it. Otherwise, even if they take it back, they will be alienated because of the distribution issue.

This is not what they want.

Huo Yuhao wanted to fight for it, but after seeing Ling Luochen’s bright eyes, he didn’t know why.

Ling Luochen is a soul king and one of the Shrek Seven Devils. Her value to the academy is unquestionable, and she...

　I hope you can point out any unreasonable parts. I don’t want to write it badly and waste your time and money.
