Douluo Continent: The Holy Evil Emperor

Next came the fifth, sixth, and seventh auction items, all of which were soul bones over 50,000 years old, but their attributes were not what Ye Qing wanted, so he did not purchase them.

"The eighth item, could it be this one?" Ye Qing stared intently at the screen, waiting for the eighth item to appear.

Chapter 198 The Skull of the Evil-Eyed Tyrant

"The following is the eighth item, which I'm sure all of you have been eagerly anticipating. As the final item, its value is beyond question. If you are interested in it, please don't miss it." Xu Jiujiu smiled slightly and gestured with her hand as if to offer it.

A silvery-white light shone in her hand, and then a head bone of the same color as the light appeared in her hand.

“It is also a soul bone, but it is an extremely precious head soul bone, and its age is 70,000 years old,” Xu Jiujiu said slowly. “More importantly, the soul beast that produced this head soul bone is the top spiritual soul beast on the continent.”

"Its name is—Evil Eye Tyrant."

The words "Evil Eye Tyrant" were uttered by Xu Jiujiu, immediately eliciting gasps of surprise.

As the clan that rules the second-ranked ferocious beast, the Evil Eye Tyrant clan's bloodline strength is beyond doubt. The head soul bones they produce are almost the most precious among all soul beasts in the Douluo Continent.

In terms of value, this head bone is even superior to the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone in the original story.

There is no concept of 'spirit' as an ultimate concept. If there were, then the Evil Eye Clan, who are purely spiritual beings, would certainly be able to reach the realm of ultimate spirit.

"It's actually the soul bone of the Evil Eye Tyrant..." Inside the private room, the Shrek Academy students also exclaimed in surprise, their eyes burning as they stared at the skull that had been held in their hands for a long time on the screen.

The value of this soul bone is comparable to that of a 100,000-year-old soul bone! Who wouldn't want such a powerful head soul bone?

Of all the people in the auction house, Ye Qing was probably the only one who wasn't very interested in this soul bone.

He glanced at Zhang Lexuan's expression and noticed the same longing in her eyes. After a moment's thought, he decided to buy the soul bone and give it to Zhang Lexuan.

Ye Qing didn't really like anything at the auction. The money he had saved to buy the Snow Emperor's embryo was now useless and was just sitting in his soul tool as a pile of scrap metal.

Money only realizes its value when it is spent.

It's only thirty to fifty million gold soul coins, so let's just use it.

"Le Xuan, how many soul bones do you have?" Ye Qing asked in a low voice.

Zhang Lexuan was about to answer, but quickly realized that Ye Qing wanted to buy the head soul bone of the Evil Eye Tyrant and give it to her.

"Qing, this is too precious, I can't accept it." Zhang Lexuan quickly shook her head and refused.

"That means it hasn't been absorbed yet." Ye Qing nodded. She only said she didn't want it, not that she couldn't absorb it. When giving something as a gift, why ask for the other person's opinion? You can just give it away after you've bought it.

Zhang Lexuan's lips parted slightly, but seeing Ye Qing's indifferent expression, she could only sigh helplessly. She knew she couldn't change Ye Qing's decision; since he intended to buy it for her, he wouldn't change his mind.

Although this action was domineering and didn't give her a choice, she didn't reject the feeling; on the contrary, she felt very sweet inside.

Ye Qing and Zhang Lexuan's conversation was naturally overheard by others.

"Why can't I find a boyfriend who's willing to give me the skull of the Evil Eye Tyrant?" Han Ruoruo murmured softly.

As a rope-type weapon spirit, controlling the Golden Rope to perform various actions requires mental energy. The stronger the mental energy, the stronger the control over the weapon spirit.

Who would complain about having high mental strength?

Hearing this, Ling Luochen, who was sitting next to her, nodded in agreement. Since the head soul bone of the mental type is not limited by the soul master's own attributes, any soul master can absorb the mental type skull bone. It is universal.

Ling Luochen wants it too!

Looking at the others, each face held a hint of envy, and these looks undoubtedly made Zhang Lexuan even happier.

"...The 70,000-year-old Evil Eye Tyrant's Skull of Wisdom, starting price 15 million gold soul coins, each bid must be at least 100,000 gold soul coins, viewing time 10 minutes, please proceed!" After a long while, he finally finished saying what he needed to say, smiled slightly at the camera, and then his figure gradually faded away.

Only the skull of the Evil Eye Tyrant that she held in her hand grew larger and larger, eventually taking up most of the screen, revealing every detail.

Ye Qing wasn't too surprised that the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone wasn't auctioned. In the original story, Xu Jiawei used this soul bone to win over Huo Yuhao. Now that Huo Yuhao was useless and Ye Qing was a light-attribute soul master, there was no reason for the Starlight Auction House to bring out the Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone again.

This skull of the Evil Eye Tyrant became a substitute, and it was more likely to cause disputes. The lack of restrictions meant that anyone could use it, and anyone could use it, which meant that everyone might participate in the auction.

Only in this way can the Star Luo Empire gain greater benefits.

The ten-minute viewing time passed quickly. The skull gradually shrank and leaned to the left, while a string of golden numbers appeared on the right.

15, 000, 000!

"Viewing time is over, the auction officially begins!"

The next second, the golden numbers began to soar rapidly, jumping three or four times every second. In less than ten seconds, they broke through from 15 million to 20 million!

Ye Qing didn't rush to make a bid. Instead, he waited until the price approached 30 million and the fluctuating numbers began to slow down before picking up the bidding device and casually entering a number.

35, 000, 000!

When the number appeared on the screen, the constantly changing numbers stopped for more than ten seconds, and the room was filled with gasps of surprise.

"I know you're rich, but this is a bit too much, isn't it?" Bei Bei couldn't help but complain. "We're from the same place, so why am I not as rich as you?"

"I told you, I only have a few hundred million gold soul coins." Ye Qing shrugged, then saw the number on the screen jump from thirty-five million to an increase of one hundred thousand. He narrowed his eyes and immediately raised the bid to forty million.

The private room fell completely silent.

They're so damn rich, so rich that it makes you want to rob the rich and give to the poor.

After the price soared to 40 million, naturally no one else bid. The Eternal Radiance Star that Ye Qing bought was only worth about 18 million, but this Evil Eye Tyrant Skull has doubled in price.

"Let us congratulate the VIP in VIP room number two for successfully bidding on the Evil Eye Tyrant's Skull of Wisdom for 40 million Gold Soul Coins!" On the screen, Xu Jiujiu's figure reappeared, smiling sweetly as she performed a Star Luo Palace court etiquette.

"All eight lots have been sold. Next up is the final grand finale lot."

"Ladies and gentlemen, please look—"

Chapter 199 The Grand Finale: The Unlucky Scammer's Auction Item

Xu Jiujiu extended her right hand and turned slightly to the side. Beside the screen, a girl in a long black dress walked out, holding a tray with a serious expression, and came to Xu Jiujiu's side.

Unlike before, the main auction item was not held up by Xu Jiujiu's hands during the auction. Instead, it was carried out by a black-level auctioneer, which changed the level of the auction.

Moreover, Xu Jiujiu's dress had changed from a red dress to a long gold dress at some point.

It exudes nobility and elegance.

"What could it be...?" Ye Qing looked at the tray covered with a red cloth, a hint of curiosity appearing in his eyes.

Wearing a long gold dress means that the price of this auction item could exceed 100 million. This grand finale item is one of the few things Ye Qing is looking forward to at this auction.

What could be replacing the Snow Emperor's embryo?

But soon, Ye Qing's expression turned to disappointment.

After a long while, the red cloth was lifted, and what was on the tray was actually a soul bone, a black and red one with wave patterns covering the surface of the left leg soul bone.

If it were the Ye Qing of the past, he would definitely be determined to get this soul bone, but now he really has no interest in it, considering all the soul bones he already has.

The external soul bone, Holy Light Eight Wings, is over 100,000 years old, approaching 200,000 years old. The external soul bone, Eternal Spear, is also 100,000 years old. The Light-Slaying Demon Right Arm Bone is about 110,000 years old. The Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum Left Leg Bone is 160,000 years old. The external soul bone, Ice Emperor Scorpion Tail, is 400,000 years old. The Snow Emperor Torso Bone is 700,000 years old.

The remaining soul bones, according to Ye Qing's standards, must be from ferocious beasts that have been absorbing for at least 200,000 years. Perhaps there will be even better ones in the future. The soul bone from the Qirong Tongtian Chrysanthemum, which has no potential for improvement, will have to be cut off and replaced with another one.

Even if the soul bone above was also 100,000 years old, Ye Qing still lost interest.

"Next, please allow Jiu Jiu to introduce the grand finale item to everyone. As you can see, it is also a soul bone, but it is a 100,000-year-old soul bone!" Even Xu Jiu Jiu couldn't help but feel excited when auctioning a 100,000-year-old soul bone.

"After the beast tide that swept through the Star Dou Great Forest, 100,000-year soul rings and soul bones became increasingly rare in the soul master world. This soul bone, naturally, was not produced by a land-based soul beast, yet it is far superior to most 100,000-year soul bones, simply because—"

"The soul beast that produced it is called: the Demonic Tiger Whale!"

"This soul bone is the leg bone of a 100,000-year-old Demon Orca King. It contains two powerful attack soul skills of the Demon Orca clan: the Demon Orca Axe and the Demon Orca Mirror Annihilation!"

"Perhaps some of our esteemed guests are unfamiliar with the Demonic Tiger Whale, but I must say that Tang San's ancestor, ten thousand years ago, also absorbed a similar soul bone, and even his soul skills were the same!"

Goodness, I'm really goodness.

The Demon Orca has only a few innate abilities, the most powerful of which are the Demon Orca Axe and the Demon Orca Mirror Annihilation. Isn't it normal that these two soul skills would be included in a 100,000-year soul bone?

It's as if possessing these two soul skills identical to Tang San's is an honor for this soul bone.

Looking at the excited expression on the screen, Ye Qing felt a little numb. This kind of worship of Tang San was not good. It seemed that he would have to let this princess know who the real king and queen were later.

However, it must be said that Tang San's soul skills are extremely attractive to the soul masters of Douluo Continent. This is all thanks to Tang San's excellent brainwashing ability. The sudden uproar in the second private room is a good example of this.

No wonder Xu Jiujiu was confident in selling this soul bone for a nine-figure price. A single 100,000-year soul bone would most likely sell for less than 100 million. Even the Snow Emperor's embryonic 100,000-year soul ring and soul bone package together only cost 150 million.

A single piece of 100,000-year-old soul bone would be worth at most 70 to 80 million.

However, the celebrity effect of being "Tang San's style" directly drove up the price of this soul bone. Don't think this is absurd; it's actually quite normal.

Even in modern society, there are still a group of people willing to pay for products endorsed by their idols, spending several times, even ten or twenty times, the price to buy ordinary things. Isn't that the idol effect?

Not to mention anime and manga fans... The prices of merchandise featuring those anime characters are simply outrageous, just because they have their waifus on them, the prices skyrocket.

It's normal for the left leg bone of the 100,000-year-old demonic tiger whale, which is the same as Tang San's, to be worth over 100 million, right?

Ye Qing felt relieved.

Too normal.

The viewing time passed quickly, and the auction for the Demon Orca's left leg bone began. The starting price was 50 million gold soul coins, and each bid increased by no less than 500,000 gold soul coins. The price increase was no slower than that of the Evil Eye Tyrant skull.

Ye Qing was only slightly stunned when the price of this soul bone soared to 80 million. Anything higher would simply be paid for by Tang San.

It has already exceeded the price this soul bone should have.

To be honest, Ye Qing did want to buy it. The two soul skills of the Demonic Orca were indeed powerful. The Demonic Orca Axe was a single-target damage soul skill with terrifying destructive power, while the Demonic Orca Mirror Annihilation had two stages of release effect: group control and group damage.

The first stage is Mirror Condensation, somewhat like spatial confinement, which achieves a control effect. The second stage is Mirror Shattering, which shatters the mirror used for control, causing widespread damage.
