"I'm sorry, big brother. I'm limited in my abilities, so I have to ask you to sit here."
Even though he proved that he had 100,000 gold soul coins, he could only sit at the back today.
The red VIP area in the first three rows is now only populated by people from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect.
Tang Yuehua guessed that Tang Xiao must be feeling very uncomfortable right now.
"Don't say that. You have already contributed enough to the Haotian Sect over the years." Tang Xiao said with a smile.
"Besides, a mere seat is nothing. If I reveal my identity now, they'll still have to ask me to sit in the front row."
What Tang Xiao said was indeed true. A tiger will not fall down even after its death. Not to mention that the Haotian Sect was just hiding from the world, not destroyed.
"Where are the pills? Why hasn't the auction started yet?"
As more and more people gathered at the auction hall, some people in the crowd urged people to take out the pills and put them up for auction quickly.
On the auction table, Xu Yunchang said with a smile:
"Don't worry, everyone isn't here yet. Once everyone is here, the auction will start."
Xu Yunchang's Soul Douluo cultivation is also impressive in the entire Douluo Continent.
But among the people who came today, there were some who he could not afford to offend, so when faced with urging, Xu Yunchang's attitude was very gentle.
When most of the people had arrived, Xu Yunchang began to feel a little anxious.
Could it be that the people from the Soul Palace forgot that today is the day of the auction, or perhaps they don't want to hold the auction anymore?
If Soul Palace regrets it, they should be fine, but Tiandou Auction House cannot afford to tease so many people.
Fortunately, Xu Yunchang didn't have to worry for long, as a waitress came from behind the auction table holding a tray.
On the red cloth tray, a white jade pill bottle was placed upright.
Xu Yunchang breathed a sigh of relief and asked in a low voice:
"Palace Master Xiao has arrived?"
The waitress nodded slightly.
"The Soul Palace Master is upstairs. This pill bottle contains three first-level, single-pattern Soul-Breaking Pills. Palace Master Xiao wants all three auctioned together."
"Hiss~"
Xu Yunchang felt a little headache.
If the three first-level, one-patterned Soul-Breaking Pills were auctioned one by one, the competition would still be fierce, but it would definitely not be as good as auctioning them all together.
No matter which family or sect, if they obtain three Soul-Breaking Pills at one time, they can increase the soul power of three younger soul masters by one level.
Although the first-level soul power may seem insignificant, the shortened training time is the most precious.
But this was Xiao Mu's request, and Xu Yunchang had no choice but to comply.
"Ahem~"
Xu Yunchang coughed lightly, and the eyes of the bidders who had been attracted by the appearance of the pill bottle suddenly became hot.
"I don't think I need to introduce it to you. This jade bottle contains the Soul-Breaking Pill."
Wow~
Although everyone had guessed it long ago, many people still made a noise when they heard it from Xu Yunchang's mouth.
Xu Yunchang waited until the noise subsided and continued:
"This pill bottle contains three first-level, one-pattern soul-breaking pills. Soul masters from level ten to eighteen, if they take one, will definitely increase their soul power by one level. A level nineteen soul master will also greatly increase their chances of a breakthrough after taking it."
The effects of the Soul-Breaking Pill had actually been spread a lot before, and Xu Yunchang just explained it again.
Yu Yuanzhen's eyes narrowed slightly.
The Soul-Breaking Pill is indeed effective in breaking through to a higher realm. As long as Xiaogang can get a second-level Soul-Breaking Pill, he will definitely be able to break through to the Soul Master realm.
"Manager Xu, stop talking so much and verify the efficacy of the medicine first. Otherwise, I won't dare to bid."
Suddenly someone among the bidders said.
This statement immediately attracted the approval of many people.
"That's right. If we don't test it, who knows whether the effect of this pill is real or not."
"It just so happens that my son is a spirit master. How about I make a sacrifice and let my son try the medicine?"
"Bah! Are you the only one with a son? My son is also a spirit master of over ten levels."
The second floor of the auction house.
Xiao Mu sat on the sofa, looking down at everything below.
Dugu Yan poured a cup of tea for Xiao Mu.
"Palace Master, these people are so despicable. They are obviously trying to cheat me out of a pill."
Zhan Kaishan asked, "Palace Master, do you want to send your subordinates to intimidate them?"
"No need."
Xiao Mu took the tea and took a sip.
"These noisy people are actually the ones with the least hope of winning the Soul Breaking Pill. If Xu Yunchang can't solve this little problem, then the person in charge of the Tiandou Auction House will be in vain. We may need to go down, but definitely not now."
Sure enough, Xu Yunchang on the auction table snorted coldly.
"quiet."
"Our auction house has verified the effectiveness of the Soul Breaking Pill. We at the Tiandou Auction House guarantee its effectiveness. As for those who do not want to bid, you can leave now."
As soon as these words were spoken, those who had been clamoring to verify the effect of the Soul-Breaking Pill suddenly fell silent.
Xu Yunchang really couldn't afford to offend the Soul Palace, nor could he afford to offend the three upper sects, and he also had to give face to the four lower sects and some big families, but not everyone could provoke him.
Xu Yunchang glanced at these people calmly and continued:
"These three first-level, one-pattern Soul-Breaking Pills are being auctioned off at once. The starting price is 30,000 Gold Soul Coins. Bids are open now."
"What?"
This time, not only those soul masters with no background were dissatisfied, but also some strong sects and families.
If the three Soul-Breaking Pills were auctioned one by one, they could weigh the pros and cons and try to get one at the lowest price.
But if we auction them together, there will be no room for compromise or concession.
They knew that those three-patterned Soul-Breaking Pills would definitely be considered easy purchases by wealthy families and sects, such as the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect and the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect.
The only thing that these middle-class families and sects have a chance to fight for is the first-level, first-line Soul-Breaking Pill.
"Manager Xu, isn't this a bit unreasonable?"
"That's right. There are clearly three Soul Breaking Pills, but they're only being auctioned once. How can this be done?"
In the first three rows, in addition to the people from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect and the Blue Lightning Tyrant Sect, there were also Xue Qinghe and his two guards.
"I can guarantee that this must be the requirement of the Soul Palace." Thorny Porpoise Douluo said to Xue Qinghe.
"Well, Xu Yunchang would never take the initiative to do this." Xue Qinghe nodded in agreement.
"Everyone, be quiet."
On the auction table, Xu Yunchang pressed his palm.
"The consignor requested this, so we at the auction house have no choice but to follow the rules."
There were too many people who were dissatisfied this time, and Xu Yunchang didn't dare to force everyone to shut up.
In particular, among those who opposed him, there was a force that Xu Yunchang did not want to offend easily.
The Wind Sword Sect's people said, "No matter how great the rules are, they are not greater than people's hearts. Everyone thinks it's unreasonable. Director Xu, please change the rules."
"Yes, they must be auctioned separately."
With people from the FengSword Sect taking the lead, there were even more people opposing it.
"this..."
Xu Yunchang's forehead was covered with sweat.
He knew that today's auction would definitely not go smoothly, but he didn't expect that as soon as the auction started, he would be in a dilemma.
At this moment, a cold and ethereal voice echoed in the auction hall.
"How to auction the Soul Breaking Pill is the rule set by my Soul Palace."
"Not convinced? Want to change? No problem. Either your Wind Sword Sect will defeat my Soul Palace, or..."
A flash of black fire appeared on the auction table, and Xiao Mu and Zhan Kaishan appeared out of thin air.
"Or, just bear with it, do you understand?"
When saying the last sentence, Xiao Mu's eyes turned to the person who was the leader of Feng Sword Sect.
The entire auction hall fell silent. Many soul masters didn't even dare to look up at the auction table. They were trembling all over.
The man from FengSword Sect, who was being looked at coldly by Xiao Mu, had a face that turned pale and blue, and his hands hanging beside the chair were trembling slightly.
