Peerless Tang Sect: Hurricane Infinite Wind

Chapter 89: Taking the Soul Devouring Knife
"The Soul Devouring Carving Knife, the starting price is 100,000 Gold Soul Coins, and each bid must be no less than 5,000 Gold Soul Coins. Dear guests, you may start bidding." Qingya said with a smile. In fact, she was not excited at all. With her nearly ten years of experience as an auctioneer, she could tell from the reactions below that this Soul Devouring Carving Knife was likely to fail to sell again.

Let it be unsold. Qingya didn't have high hopes for this carving knife.

Huo Yuhao was about to raise his sign to bid when Wu Xuan raised his sign first and shouted, "One hundred thousand gold soul coins."

Qingya was stunned for a moment. This was the first time anyone had bid on the Soul Devouring Blade since it appeared at the Starlight Auction House! After a brief moment of shock, she was completely overwhelmed with surprise.

You know, a 1% commission is a thousand gold soul coins! Even if she squandered it, it would be enough to last her several years. She was usually lucky to earn a few dozen to a hundred gold soul coins from hosting an auction. After all, she was only a purple-level auctioneer. If she could auction off the Soul Devouring Blade, she might be able to reach the black level and host higher-level auctions.

For a moment, Qingya was so surprised that she forgot to respond.

Huo Yuhao, who was standing aside, looked at Wu Xuan in shock, not knowing why the other party suddenly made an offer.

"Ah! Okay, VIP No. 329 bids 100,000 gold soul coins. Is there any other VIP who would like to make another bid?" Qingya finally came to her senses and quickly responded.

Hearing Wu Xuan's bid, Wang Yan and others looked at him in surprise.

"Wu Xuan! You are not a soul guide, why did you buy a carving knife? Besides, this carving knife is so weird." Xiao Xiao asked with some concern.

"Don't ask. Your brother Xuan has his own plans!" Wu Xuan rubbed Xiao Xiao's head, then looked at Wang Yan and said, "Teacher Wang, buying this carving knife is my personal plan. It won't be paid from the school account. And I'm confident that I can solve the problem with the carving knife."

Wang Yan pondered for a moment and finally nodded. He had a little understanding of Wu Xuan's character. Since he said there was no problem, he should be confident.

Huo Yuhao, standing aside, had a conflicted look on his face. The new teacher in his spiritual sea of ​​consciousness had already told him the true appearance of the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife. At that moment, Huo Yuhao's eyes were extremely determined. Even Wu Xuan could not give up such a treasure. As long as he used the public account, he still had a chance.

But when Huo Yuhao heard that Wu Xuan wouldn't use the official account, his face immediately turned pale. He simply didn't have the money to compete with Wu Xuan.

In the end, no one bid, and Wu Xuan bought the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife for 100,000 gold soul coins.

The auction ended. The Shrek Academy members had made a lot of money, but they also spent a lot of money. Wu Xuan followed Wang Yan to handle the payment and item collection. The others went back first.

After this transaction, the two's levels in the Starlight Auction House were directly upgraded from the initial white level to the purple level, but it was completely useless to Wu Xuan.

"Sir, please come this way."

In the corridor of the auction house, a waiter was leading Wu Xuan and Wang Yan towards the reception room.

When it comes to protecting customer privacy, Starlight Auction House does a very good job.

"Sir, this is the Soul Devouring Carving Knife you bought. Please inspect it."

"Ah."

Wu Xuan responded softly and walked forward.

On a specially made table, there lies quietly a carving knife with ancient patterns and exuding a cold aura.

"Yes! The carving knife is fine." Wu Xuan nodded lightly, then handed ten gold cards to the waiter.

The standard configuration of a gold card is usually 10,000 gold soul coins.

"Thank you, sir." The waiter took the gold card, thanked him and left the reception room.

Wu Xuan nodded and put the Soul Devouring Carving Knife into his soul guide. In just a moment, his expression changed. It seemed this third-level storage soul guide wouldn't last much longer. He had to dispose of it as soon as possible after tomorrow's competition.

"."

Xingluo Plaza.

Early in the morning, everyone in Shrek Academy had already gotten up. Today will be their second game in the round-robin stage of the All-Continent Advanced Soul Master Academy Soul Fighting Competition.

Dai Yuheng, Ma Xiaotao, Chen Zifeng, and Ling Luochen were still recovering from their injuries. It would take at least two days for Chen Zifeng and Ling Luochen to fully recover, so only the reserve team could play in today's match.

Their opponents today have already been determined, but the way of the competition will not be known until the draw on the spot.

Xingluo Square was as lively as ever, especially when the people from Shrek Academy appeared in the contestant passage guarded by soldiers, the whole place burst into cheers.

The two matches Shrek Academy had already completed had left a deep impression on the audience. They were eager to see what kind of surprises Shrek Academy would bring them today. Wang Yan had already introduced their opponents during breakfast. This time, they would face a school from the Douling Empire called Qianling Advanced Soul Master Academy. Ranked in the top three in the Douling Empire, this team was a strong contender.

"Wu Xuan! The Soul-Devouring Carving Knife you bought last night is really dangerous. The evil spirit hidden in the knife is not something that ordinary people can deal with." In the rest area, Huo Yuhao earnestly belittled the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife that Wu Xuan bought last night.

"I don't know how dangerous it is, but I want to try to deal with the evil spirit myself. I'll see what happens if I really can't solve it." Wu Xuan shook his head.

"If you can't solve it, you can sell it to me! I'm confident that I can lift the curse." Huo Yuhao quickly responded when Wu Xuan agreed.

"Do you have money? I bought that with 100,000 gold soul coins?" Wu Xuan glanced at Huo Yuhao who was asking for a carving knife next to him.

"Well, I helped you solve the evil spirit that you couldn't handle, and you actually charged me for it?" Huo Yuhao stared at Wu Xuan, who was calm and composed, in a daze.

"What else? Give it to you for free? And where do you get the confidence that I can't get rid of the evil spirit on the carving knife?" Wu Xuan asked with a sneer.

Huo Yuhao's face darkened when he heard this and he did not respond. Wu Xuan was too lazy to guess what he was thinking.

They are all from the White Tiger Duke's Mansion. Damn White Tiger Duke, why was I born in such a family? With my status, no matter how talented I am, how could people like Wu Xuan look at me in the eye?

"Little guy, you're getting stuck in a rut again." In Huo Yuhao's spiritual sea of ​​consciousness, Alex sighed and took action again to resolve his extreme emotions.

If it weren't for the immortal herbs this little fellow had obtained, how could his shattered soul fragment have awakened so quickly? Although he had no intention, he was still a recipient of this favor and should guide its growth.

But this little fellow's personality is too prone to extremes. A few words from his peers can make him lose control of his temper. Is this kind of personality suitable for inheriting his own necromancy?
Three strokes into the day, it's game time. His Majesty the Emperor of the Star Luo Empire has come to the walls of the Imperial City to watch the battle. Undoubtedly, what he is most concerned about is the performance of Shrek Academy.

On the competition stage, the referee walked to the center and loudly shouted through the loudspeaker: "Both sides entered the waiting area. The captains of both sides came to the stage to draw lots."

Wang Yan nodded to Wu Xuan, and Wu Xuan understood and strode onto the competition stage.

From the Qianling Academy, there was also a male student who came up. He looked about twenty years old, with a slender figure and a cold face. It looks like the whole person is like a javelin.

The drawing begins!
Everyone was paying attention to the result of the draw for this match. No matter what kind of competition it was, a match involving Shrek Academy would undoubtedly be very exciting.

"Shrek Academy vs. Qianling Academy, team battle." The referee loudly announced the result of the draw.

When the results were announced, Wang Yan breathed a sigh of relief.

The teamfight is undoubtedly the most intense and comprehensive competition. It is a test of the overall strength of both teams. The captains of both teams said they had no objection to the teamfight.

The referee said solemnly: "Players from both sides come on stage."

In the battle zone, Wu Xuan, Bei Bei, Xu Sanshi, Jiang Nannan, Xiao Xiao, Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong stood up almost at the same time and headed towards the competition stage.

This morning, Wang Yan's main focus was on team battles. The tactical arrangements were already fully prepared.

On the Shrek Academy side, Wu Xuan, Bei Bei, and Xu Sanshi stood at the front. Behind them came Jiang Nannan and Xiao Xiao. At the very back were Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong.

The person standing at the front of Qianling Academy is not their captain, but four people. It turned out to be four people. These four people were all tall male students, standing there like a wall.

After the four people came the captain, and behind the captain were two girls.

The two girls are easy to identify because one has red hair and the other has blue hair, which is quite eye-catching.

Recalling what Wang Yan had told them in the morning about the special formation of the Thousand Spirits Advanced Soul Master Academy, Wang Yan summarized it in one sentence: four shields combined into one solid golden fortress, and ice and fire dual-control Thousand Strikes Spear.

The four tall members in the front were named Yang Ming, Song Hu, Bai Chen, and Ye Mao. Wang Yan deduced that these four members must be from the same sect, as they possessed the same defensive spirit, the Lingxi Shield, a mid-to-high-level defensive spirit.

The Qianling captain behind him, as cold as a javelin, is named Shen Ce. He is the real core and main attacker of their team. He is good at both long and short range attacks with his Thousand Strike Spear.

The last two girls, the blue-haired one is An Lengye, whose martial soul is Frost Bear, and the red-haired one is Fei Yuyan, whose martial soul is Blazing Tiger. They all take the control route, so it is said to be dual control of ice and fire.

This is the strongest lineup that Qianling Academy can come up with.
