Douluo: Traveling Through the Universe, Reversing Time and Space

Chapter 73 Soul Bone Ownership, Million Compensation

"This is the left leg bone of the Kongming Demon Leopard. It is about 10,000 years old. It is suitable for both strong attack and agile attack spirit masters to absorb."

"Absorbing it will significantly increase your speed. If you're lucky, you might even gain a good soul bone skill." Du Weilun briefly explained the soul bone.
Even after absorbing a thousand-year soul bone, one may not necessarily obtain soul bone skills, but one can definitely obtain a ten-thousand-year soul bone.
The strength of the soul skills you obtain depends on your own luck. The skills provided by most soul bones are often different for each person.
Some are lucky enough to have a better fusion reaction between the fused soul bone and themselves, thus gaining stronger soul bone skills.
Some people have bad luck, and the skills they get may be relatively useless.
"Thank you, teacher," Dai Huabin quickly expressed his gratitude. He had never expected that the prize for the first place in the freshman assessment would be a spirit bone.
"There's only one soul bone. How to distribute it is up to the three of you to decide."

"Remember, while soul bones are precious, don't let them damage the relationship or even go too far. Be sensible, understand?" Du Weilun warned meaningfully.
"I understand," Dai Huabin nodded.
"Director Du, what's the approximate monetary value of this Kongming Demon Leopard's left leg bone?" Shi Yu couldn't help but ask as he left.
Rather than guessing, it is better to ask. I believe the other party will know more clearly than you.
"Between one and a half million and two million," Du Weilun, knowing the value of spirit bones, replied casually.
"Thank you." Shi Yu followed Dai Huabin and the others out of the office.
After leaving, they found a relatively private place to discuss how to distribute the soul bones.
Dai Huabin placed the skin bag containing the soul bone in the middle, and the three people's eyes fell on it.
There was desire in Dai Huabin's eyes, and so did Zhu Lu. This was a ten-thousand-year-old soul bone, and it would be a lie to say she didn't want it.
Soul bones are rare and hard to come by, and there are many types of soul bones. The type that suits them is one of the rarest.
It is not easy to meet someone who is right for you. If you miss it, you may not be able to meet the right one again.
The families behind them are not simple, so it is possible to obtain spirit bones with some effort.
But the reality is that not every family leader has the right spirit bones. This shows that the difficulty is not the money, but the fact that spirit bones cannot be purchased just because you want to.
Shi Yu hadn't been too concerned about this soul bone from the beginning, so his gaze wasn't particularly intense.
After all, he now has two soul bones, and they are external soul bones. The attraction of these soul bones to him is not particularly great.
"This soul bone is very suitable for Zhu Lu and me. My idea is that we both give you financial compensation, and you give up this soul bone. How about that?" Dai Huabin said, trying to negotiate with Shi Yu.
Knowing that Shi Yu might have a powerful teacher in the inner courtyard, he was more polite to Shi Yu.
"It's not impossible, but how much compensation are you going to give me?" Shi Yu said.
Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu exchanged a glance, and the former said, "This soul bone is worth between one and a half million and two million. How about we compensate you with half of the highest price?"

"One million gold soul coins?" Shi Yu whispered. This price was in line with his expectations.
"If you think it's too low, I can add another 200,000," Dai Huabin said through gritted teeth.
"Deal" Shi Yu did not continue to raise the price. An extra two hundred thousand was already a pleasant surprise, so there was no need to be greedy.
Dai Huabin breathed a sigh of relief, took out a gold soul coin card from his soul storage device, and handed it to Shi Yu with some reluctance.
"This is a card with a limit of 500,000 Gold Soul Coins. This is my deposit."

"I'll give you the remaining 700,000 when I have enough. Don't worry, I won't break my promise," Dai Huabin said.
He was the second son of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, but it was not easy for him to come up with 1.2 million gold soul coins in one go.
These 500,000 gold soul coins were all he had, and if he wanted more, he would need to ask his family for it.
"I also have 500,000 gold soul coins here. I'll give them to you first. You only need 200,000." Zhu Lu also took out a gold soul coin card with a credit limit of 500,000 and handed it to Shi Yu.
"Okay, give me the 200,000 when you have enough." Shi Yu put away the two Gold Soul Coin cards with a clear conscience.
I'm not worried about them using an empty city strategy on me, there must be real money in this card.
"I won't participate in the distribution of these soul bones, but how will you distribute them?" Shi Yu asked curiously, somewhat interested in watching the show.
There is only one soul bone. Either Dai Huabin or Zhu Lu absorbed it. Who absorbed it specifically?
He was very curious about how these two people who were almost lovers would make their decision.
In my heart, I still feel that Zhu Lu is more likely to give up. After all, in the original story, Dai Huabin's love for Zhu Lu was not as strong as Zhu Lu's love for Dai Huabin.
Dai Huabin's heart changed a bit after he met the beautiful and powerful Wang Qiuer.
Of course, it may also be that Wang Qiuer's strong and cold personality attracted Dai Huabin, not just her beauty.
"This..." Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu looked at each other, both feeling somewhat embarrassed, and both of them seemed to be hesitant to speak.
I want to fight for myself, but I can't speak up. I want to give up, but I can't bear to do so. I am caught in a dilemma.
"I see you both want it, but you're both too embarrassed to ask. How about I suggest a way to decide it through some luck-based method like rock-paper-scissors or drawing lots?"

"Luck decides whoever gets it, and that way you won't have any conflicts over it," Shi Yu suggested after seeing the two of them remain silent for a long time.
I'm also a teammate with them, so I don't really want to see them have conflicts over this.
"I have no objection," Zhu Lu agreed first. This might be a better solution.
Dai Huabin hesitated for a moment before nodding in agreement. Ultimately, they decided to use rock-paper-scissors, a best-of-ten format, to determine the ownership of the soul bone.
The two of them played the simplest game of rock-paper-scissors.
The competition was fierce, and the first time it was a 5-5 draw.
Naturally, the game started over again, and this time Zhu Lu won with a huge advantage of 6 to 3.
Zhu Lu, who won the Soul Bone, was naturally happy and comforted Dai Huabin, saying that if there were more Soul Bone in the future, she would definitely give them to him.
Dai Huabin forced a smile, feeling unwilling inside, but he could only accept the result.
It was definitely impossible for him to fall out with Zhu Lu over this soul bone.
Shi Yu left alone after watching the show. He had nothing to do in the afternoon, so he planned to apply for a single dormitory at the academy.
If I can apply for a place, I can continue to live in the college. If I can't, I can only find a house in the city.
Anyway, I need a more private room to live in, otherwise it will be too inconvenient to do things.
Things were not going smoothly. The single dormitory was full and there was no single dormitory left for him.
He could only go to the city to find a house. He did not take the usual route, but walked towards the direction of the academy, which was close to the city.
I walked straight to the wall, which was more than ten meters high and separated the college from the city.
Shi Yu didn't climb over the wall. He just disappeared at the thought and reappeared on the other side of the wall, in the city.
"This saves a lot of kilometers of travel." Shi Yu looked at the empty streets and felt that it was very convenient.
Normally, one has to go around a long way to get from Shrek Academy to the city, but it's much more convenient to just go through the wall.
"Stop!" Shi Yu was about to leave when he was stopped by a stern voice.
Shi Yu looked over and saw two middle-aged men wearing the uniforms of Shrek City law enforcers walking towards him with weapons in hand, their eyes scrutinizing criminals.
"Don't you know that Shrek Academy students are also forbidden from climbing over the wall to enter or leave Shrek Academy?" a middle-aged man approached and scolded.
He didn't do anything because Shi Yu was wearing the Shrek Academy uniform.
If anyone else dared to climb over the wall, they would have been suppressed and arrested by force.
The walls of Shrek Academy are not something you can just climb over.
"Sorry, I'm not really familiar with this rule," Shi Yu said awkwardly.
I just thought it was convenient, but I didn't know in advance if there would be any trouble.
