Douluo: Peerless Black Tortoise Moon God

Chapter 156: Jing Hongchen: You like money, right? This hall master will make you spend it as long as you have the life! (Part )
"Assholes! How dare you smuggle something like this! The first thing I'll do when I get back is to catch you rats and execute you!"

In room number three, Jing Hongchen stared angrily at the twelve standard level six fixed-type soul guide shells, his face flushed with anger.

Back then, Xiao Changfeng was so capable that he knew to write a letter to this hall master before buying a level 5 fixed-type soul guide shell. This hall master weighed the pros and cons again and again before allowing a group of students to make and deliver inferior products. Where did this big rat come from in Mingde Hall that he even dared to sell such a thing!

Soul guides above level six are prohibited from smuggling, and fixed-type soul guide shells are the highest level of prohibited items. You are really going too far!
Neither Xu Tianxi nor the Hongchen siblings had ever seen Jing Hongchen so angry. After exchanging glances, they all stood up, some gave him a massage to soothe his anger, some served him tea, and some spoke to him to comfort him with kind words.

"Grandpa, don't be angry. It's just twelve fixed-type soul guide shells. Can't we just buy them all back?"

Meng Hongchen persuaded softly. She wanted to say casually that twelve fixed-type soul guide shells would only take a month for a deep enthusiast present, but she changed her mind immediately when the words came to her lips.

Mingdetang's financial resources are undoubtedly the best in the mainland, and they have brought enough funds this time.

Jing Hongchen grabbed the tea poured by Xiao Hongchen and drank it all in one gulp, enjoying the unique luck massage of the Xuanming lineage, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.

Glancing at the auctioneer in the corner of the room who was responsible for introducing the auction items and chatting with the guests, Jing Hongchen snorted coldly and didn't bother with a small character.

He knew the purpose of the Star Luo Empire asking him to come this time. He could either spend a lot of money to take these things back, or watch them being bought by others.

No matter what the outcome, the Xingluo Empire will not lose.

"Dean, a problem that can be solved with money is not a problem. Let's take these goods back today." Xu Tianxi looked at the fixed-type soul guide shells on the screen helplessly and transmitted the message quietly.

Come to think of it, he was also quite curious about how this kind of stuff got into the market. He remembered that in the original novel, there seemed to be a prince of the Xu family in the Sun and Moon Empire who specialized in smuggling. His name was Xu Guozhong. He had to go back and see if he could shut him down.

It involves a royal prince, especially Xu Guozhong, who is a hero in the old emperor's palace coup. It is unknown whether Jing Hongchen can take him down.

What kind of name is this guy? Guozhong... The more you lack something, the more you promote it, right? Why don't you call yourself Zhongzheng?

When Xu Tianxi felt a chill in his heart, Jing Hongchen finally calmed down his anger temporarily and nodded vigorously.

However, he did not bid directly; he was well aware of the various situations in the auction, and whoever bid first would be the one to be taken advantage of.

Fifteen minutes later, no one bid for this batch of fixed-type soul guide shells with a reserve price of 650,000 gold soul coins. It was about to be released from the market and entered the final countdown.

At the last second, Jing Hongchen decisively bid "700,000" and won the auction.

Xu Tianxi also didn't understand why the auction house here was different from the one on Blue Star and didn't reset the timer after a new bid came out, but there were many unusual situations on the Hydrogen Continent, so there was no need to worry too much about it.

"Congratulations to the distinguished guest from Box 3 for winning this batch of custom-made soul guide cannonballs at a high price. Now, please take a look at this auction item: a 50,000-year-old left arm bone of a great earth demon bear..."

Xu Jiujiu on the screen smiled sweetly, and two dimples appeared on her cheeks with the smile, which was pleasing to the eye, but Jing Hongchen had only raging anger in his heart, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

If you don't come out, you won't know. Once you come out, you will find out that there are so many traitors in Mingde Hall, and it has given the Xingluo Empire the opportunity to kill him.

You like money, right? This hall master will let you get it but not spend it. You are a bunch of people who don’t know how to live or die!

What they didn't know was that in room number seven, someone was also secretly feeling unlucky.

"Damn it! The guy in room three is really rich! He actually added 50,000 in one go. I couldn't rob him."

Like Jing Hongchen, Wang Yan seized the opportunity to increase his bid, but due to lack of financial resources, he could only increase his bid by 5,000, which led to his failure in the auction. He sighed and looked regretful; Huo Yuhao and He Caitou, who were sitting behind him, were also depressed.

This is a sixth-level fixed-type soul guide cannonball that is extremely valuable for research. Even a powerful academy like Shrek Academy has only developed a fifth-level fixed-type soul guide cannonball at the highest level.

As Starlight Auction House said, this is indeed the first time that a top-level auction item has appeared in a mainland auction house. If you miss this opportunity, you won’t know if you will ever see it again.

"Teacher Wang, is this batch of custom-made soul guide shells of great value? I don't think so." Du Weilun asked, expressing that he did not understand the regrets of Wang Yan and the two soul guide department members.

When Dean Yan extorted custom-made soul guide shells from Dean Qian, he would always ask for fifty or even a hundred of them at a time, although Dean Qian would always cut the price in half.

"You don't understand. If we can successfully research this thing, or even replicate it, it's possible for our academy to achieve a breakthrough in this area."

He Caitou explained in a muffled voice, "If we can also research and develop a sixth-level fixed-type soul guide cannonball, we can also go to the auction house or negotiate with the three major empires. Do you think this is meaningful?"

"So you can make a lot of money? That's really a pity."

Du Weilun understood that if the Soul Guidance Department could research this kind of thing, it could earn a large amount of funds from the three major empires, and these funds would go to Shrek, and the Martial Soul Department would be able to get a share of it.

"Well, if you ask me, the gap between our academy and the Sun-Moon Empire in soul guidance technology is indeed huge. If we want to catch up, I'm afraid the best way is to go to the Sun-Moon Empire to study."

He Caitou thought about the Shrek Soul Guidance Department's backward soul guidance system in all aspects, and recalled the time when he was a child when he used various precious soul guidance devices as toys, and suddenly felt a world of difference.

Zhang Lexuan said, "Caitou, you're right. Before he died, Elder Mu instructed us to conduct exchanges and studies with the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy. I'll bring this up with the elders at the Sea God Pavilion when I return."

Du Weilun frowned. "Le Xuan, that bastard Jing Hongchen has captured Dean Cai. He's so arrogant and disrespectful. How can we study with him? How can we let their students enter Shrek?"

He had heard Dean Yan mention the idea of ​​allowing students from the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy to study in their Martial Soul Department, allowing them to send their own students to learn soul guidance techniques. In his opinion, this deal was a sure loss. Why would they open up the precious resources of the Martial Soul Department to the enemy in exchange for the opportunity for soul guidance students to study there? How could Shrek's foundation compare to the Sun Moon Royal Soul Instructor Academy?

Zhang Lexuan shifted her gaze to Du Weilun and said, "Director Du, this matter was decided by Mr. Mu during his lifetime. He must have his reasons for considering it this way."

"And you've also seen that soul guides are not completely useless. Dean Cai was defeated by Jing Hongchen, which is enough to prove that soul guides can also become powerful."

In fact, in her opinion, Cai Meir was not only no match for Jing Hongchen, it was no exaggeration to say that the battle was one-sided. Not to mention Dean Cai, even Dean Yan might not be able to match her.

Seeing Jing Hongchen's powerful strength, Zhang Lexuan, a relatively clear-headed martial arts person, let go of some of his prejudices and gradually understood the reason behind Mu Lao's will.

Seeing that Du Weilun still looked dissatisfied, Zhang Lexuan's eyes turned and said, "Besides, Cai Tou and the others said that after they finish learning, they can make more advanced soul guides and sell them to the former Three Kingdoms. This will be a good thing for everyone."

Du Weilun decisively shut up and began to plan to go back and persuade Dean Yan.

Soul guides are certainly not good things, but if they can make money... then I can barely accept it.

Thinking of Yan Shaozhe, Du Weilun couldn't help but ask, "By the way, Le Xuan, you sent a message to the Sea God Pavilion asking for help earlier. Have they responded yet?"

Hearing this, Zhang Lexuan's face darkened. "The academy's stance is very clear. Dean Cai must be rescued, and his absolute safety must be guaranteed."

"In other words, the academy has agreed to that bastard's conditions?" Du Weilun looked unwilling.

Zhang Lexuan smiled bitterly and said, "What can we do if we don't agree? Dean Cai is in that bastard's hands now. If he does anything to Dean Cai, we will be in trouble."

"At the academy, Dean Yan is seriously injured and can't walk, and Elder Song has not recovered from his old injury. Dean Xian and Dean Qian will come, and two other elders will come together to scare Jing Hongchen."

Cai Meir was captured by Jing Hongchen in public, and Shrek fell into an absolute negotiation disadvantage. With the level of the soul guide system, Jing Hongchen might not be able to detect that Cai Meir had installed a ninth-level self-destruct soul guide device on her. If Jing Hongchen was angered, Cai Meir would have no way of survival, which was something Yan Shaozhe absolutely did not want to see.

The elders of the Sea God Pavilion will still settle the account of which is more important, a Titled Douluo or four soul bones. Cai Meir herself has three or four soul bones.

Reinforcements had to be sent, but Xiao Changfeng had been too ruthless at the time, and both Old Song and Yan Shaozhe were seriously injured. Even with the help of Old Zhuang, the injuries from Extreme Ice would be difficult to heal for a while, not to mention that Long Xiaoyao had injured Yan Shaozhe a second time.

In fact, this incident suppressed the momentum of the Wuhun system in Shrek. The fact that Cai Meir was defeated one-on-one in public made them no longer able to turn a blind eye. The idea of ​​"learning from the barbarians in order to defeat them" was gradually recognized within the Sea God Pavilion.

Unconsciously, three soul bones appeared on the auction screen one after another. Jing Hongchen watched calmly, and the top-level rare metals and an eighth-level long-range soul guide cannon made by a ninth-level soul engineer that appeared behind them made Jing Hongchen so angry that he almost bit his back teeth.

Fortunately, this top-level eighth-level soul guide device finally did not come from Mingde Hall. Jing Hongchen felt a little relieved, but at the same time he couldn't help but secretly curse his stupid teammates.

"You poor wretch! When I return, I will definitely find you and make you the laughingstock of the ninth-level soul masters for the rest of your life!"

A dignified ninth-level soul engineer actually sold his eighth-level soul guide to the black market, and it ended up in the Xingluo Empire. How could he be so short of money?
Finally, the highlight is here. The left arm bone of a 70,000-year-old ice scorpion, which possesses the magical skill of ice explosion, makes its grand debut after a long introduction.

As soon as this soul bone appeared, Xu Tianxi's spiritual sea exploded. Bingdi first cursed humans for being bastards and harming her people, and then she kept demanding that Xu Tianxi must take a picture of this soul bone.

I don't know if she is joking or not, but she, as the king of the Ice Scorpion clan, does not have this ice explosion soul skill. Instead, it is possible for the clan members to awaken it, and it all depends on randomness.

And Xu Tianxi... he was a little hesitant.

He clearly remembered that the master uncle seemed to be missing only a bone in his left arm.

As for himself… there should still be a lot of creatures like 100,000-year-old sea soul beasts or even fierce beasts, right? Putting aside other things, he planned to take a picture of the Snow Empress and negotiate the terms to see if he could get a set of 700,000-year-old spirit rings and spirit bones.

Back in the Far North, he had hoped to talk to the Snow Empress but he didn't because he was afraid of the Snow Empress's tyrannical strength. Xu Xiaoyun had poached a hundred thousand year old soul beast in the Far North. If Xu Xiaoyun was called out, it might turn into a life-and-death battle.

It is not impossible that the Snow Emperor, whose life is coming to an end, will take Xu Xiaoyun with her even at the risk of her life. Although the Ten Thousand Years Mysterious Ice Marrow of the Earth Dragon Sect can be used as a bargaining chip, if she reveals it, the Snow Emperor can take it all by herself.

As for Tongtian Bazu, in Xu Tianxi's opinion, there was no need for him to use that favor here. He did not lack an extremely powerful person like Xue Di to protect him, so it would be a huge loss even if he won.

It’s different now. The sealed Snow Empress’s origin has been severely damaged. She can try to communicate after being released, and she can’t overturn the table.

"Ice Emperor, I'm going to leave this soul bone to one of my elders. There are countless soul beasts to kill on the sea, but now, I'm going to make the guy who wants to trick us spit out some blood..."

After comforting Bingdi, Xu Tianxi turned to look at Jing Hongchen and whispered a few words to him.

Jing Hongchen turned his head abruptly, his eyes burning as he asked, "Really?"

Xu Tianxi nodded solemnly.

At this time, only Jing Hongchen can get the most benefits by taking action.

"it is good!"

Jing Hongchen, whose face had been grim all night, finally found the opportunity to attack. He clenched his fists, smiled coldly at the auctioneer in the corner, and said loudly:
"There's something seriously wrong with your auction items! Call your princess here immediately! Otherwise, I'll spread the word throughout Xingluo City that your Starlight Auction House is up to something, plotting to kill us, the distinguished guests who have been invited here! Go now!"
