In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 237 Centennial Soybeans, What for?

"Phew~ Finally, it's finally over."

Inside Mixue Ice Cream & Star City store.

Finally, when it was time to leave work, Bai Ran, the store manager, couldn't help but let out a long sigh of relief.

As a Soul King with a Soul Power level of 56, I actually felt tired after a busy afternoon.

Of course, the main reason was that a lot of soul power was used to make fresh ice cream.

It seems that if Mixue Ice Cream wants to open more branches, they need to develop a soul tool that can make ice cream.

Otherwise, relying solely on his own soul power to replenish supplies would eventually exhaust him to death.

"Manager, I'm going back now."

As a shop assistant, Xiao Shenzi was so tired that she could hardly straighten her back.

However, she still managed a forced smile and said goodbye to her manager.

"Hey, Divine Child, don't rush off yet."

Upon hearing the shopkeeper's words, Shenzi immediately stood up straight again and looked at Bai Ran with a wary expression.

Yae no Miko: Damn it, this idiot shopkeeper isn't trying to make me stay and work overtime, is he?! (Arminos)

Fortunately, things didn't turn out the way the divine child had imagined.

Bai Ran took out a rather exquisite box from his storage soul tool and handed it to the Divine Child.

"Store manager, what's this?"

"Fried tofu".

"The shop was so busy today, thank you for your hard work, Shinko."

"Fried tofu? I don't care for that, Divine Child."

Despite saying she didn't care, the goddess's body betrayed her, and she accepted the box without hesitation.

“My God, this is no ordinary fried tofu.”

If it were just ordinary fried tofu, Bai Ran would have no reason to give it to her.

As the heir to Narukami Taisha Shrine, the princess has an endless supply of fried tofu every day.

"Oh, is this fried tofu made with some special ingredient?"

Yae no Miko was somewhat curious.

This world is very different from Teyvat, so the process and ingredients for making fried tofu may also be quite different.

It seems I'll definitely have to savor it properly when I get back, and maybe even have a cup of the finest osmanthus wine. (Minors are not allowed to drink alcohol.)

"Of course, this is made from soybeans that have been around for a century."

"A hundred, a hundred-year-old soybean!"

Upon hearing this, Yae no Miko immediately took out the box that she had just put away.

Yae no Miko: This soybean is several generations older than me. Could this be the legendary ancient ancient ancient ancient... (dozens of ancient) soybeans omitted here?

"Manager, is it still safe to eat fried tofu made with those soybeans?"

Although she is the daughter of Yae no Miko from Inazuma, you can't really treat me like an Inazuma person, right, shopkeeper!
"Oh, don't worry, the Hundred-Year Soybean is a plant-based soul beast, a specialty of the Douluo Continent."

This type of soybean not only has a much richer flavor than regular soybeans, but it also contains a lot of energy.

More importantly, this box of fried tofu was made by Uncle Ye Tian himself.

We originally wanted to use soybeans that were older, but unfortunately, only 100-year-old soybeans were available on the market.

As for why Ye Tian knows how to make fried tofu?
When Ye Tian came to the store last time, he saw the cute little girl at the front desk and asked his nephew: What does that child like to eat?
Bai Ran casually said: Fried tofu.

In the eyes of her uncle Ye Tian, ​​it was not easy for such a young girl to come and help in the store.

So she made some fried tofu herself and asked Bai Ran to bring it to her.

I was supposed to give it to her at noon, but business was too busy today, and I didn't have time to deliver this box of fried tofu to Shenzi until after get off work.

At first, Yae no Miko didn't think much of the box of fried tofu.

It wasn't until I got back that I took a simple bite.

Suddenly, I felt like I had been eating fried tofu for decades for nothing.

Yae no Miko: This fried tofu will give me strength. ...

Not long after the divine child left.

Rui Xue'er then walked into the Mixue Ice Cream store, which was already closed.

He quietly circled around behind Hagibis and patted him on the shoulder.

At this moment, Bai Ran is calculating the store's sales revenue for the day.

Suddenly, he felt someone patting him from behind. He thought it was a prank by the God Child who hadn't returned.

So, with a slightly impatient look on her face, she turned around and asked, "What?"

"sure."

Ruixue rubbed her hands together to indicate that there was no problem.

Bai Ran: Something's not right with you.

Ruixueer: You just found out?
"Hmph, alright, I'm not kidding anymore."

Ruixue quickly coughed twice to correct her voice and then said.

She's a proper auspicious beast, how could she be so casual?

This whole thing was just a joke I made to Bai Ran, who was taking it so seriously.

"What exactly happened?"

As the saying goes, no one visits a temple without a reason. Even at the Sun and Moon Royal Academy, except when she wanted to drink Luckin Coffee, Ruixueer would basically never take the initiative to look for her.

"Hakibai, there's an auction at the Starlight Auction tonight, can you take me there?"

"Starlight Auction?"

Upon hearing this, Bai Ran was taken aback.

Shouldn't that grand event have started after the quarterfinals?

Could it be that my time travel caused the auction to be brought forward?
"Hakibai, Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, Soul-Devouring Carving Knife!"

"Soul-Devouring Carving Knife?"

Upon hearing this familiar name, Bai Ran immediately remembered it.

He was so focused on the Starlight Auction's top-tier auction that he forgot that the Starlight Auction also holds some regular auctions.

For example, tonight, the Starlight Auction will host an auction that reaches level four.

The Starlight Auction is divided into five levels based on the scale of the auction, with level 1 being the highest and level 5 the lowest.

A Level 4 auction like this can only accommodate 200 people, and the value of the auctioned items usually does not exceed 10 gold soul coins.

However, at this very auction, a carving knife was auctioned off.

Furthermore, Huo Yuhao managed to snag it at a bargain price of 10 gold soul coins.

Bai Ran never expected that Rui Xue'er would actually be interested in this carving knife.

To be honest, this opportunity that belonged to Huo Yuhao was not within Bai Ran's consideration.

Putting aside the fact that he is not a Soul Master and has no need for carving knives.

Even without the help of Elder Yi within Huo Yuhao's body, erasing the curse within the Soul-Devouring Carving Blade would be an extremely troublesome matter.

Bai Ran didn't want to spend 100,000 gold soul coins to buy a piece of junk.

Besides, almost two-thirds of the engraving knives used for listing are located within the Sun Moon Empire. Bai Ran has seen several of them in Jing Hongchen's collection room alone.

Why create unnecessary trouble for yourself when there are better options available?

"Harkiri, why are you thinking about a carving knife all the time? Besides, that thing isn't a good thing."

Bai Ran kindly reminded him.

“Hakibai, this old lady is now a Soul Master, so naturally I need a ranking engraving knife that matches my status.”

Besides wanting a good carving knife.

In a sense, this might be a silent contest between the Beast of Destiny and the Child of Destiny.
