After a brief opening remark, Ang Lee turned to the side and made a "please" gesture.
"Well then, let's not waste any more time."
"In the following time, our chief auctioneer will preside over this exciting auction!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a melodious tune began to play.
A graceful figure walked slowly onto the auction stage with light steps.
The woman looked to be about eighteen or nineteen years old. Her white dress accentuated her graceful figure, and her long, wavy brown hair was casually draped over her shoulders, adding to her charm.
She has delicate features, a sweet smile, and bright, sparkling eyes that seem to be able to captivate and bewitch.
In the VIP section, Liu Shaobing, the city lord of Soto City, recognized the newcomer and couldn't help but nudge the arm of Wu Chen, the master of the Great Battle Arena, who was standing next to him.
"Old Wu, isn't this DouDou, the former chief female host of your Great Soul Arena?"
"Why did you end up at Qibao Auction House?"
Wu Chen leaned back in his chair, his burly frame bearing a cold snort.
"What else could it be?"
"Money!"
“That old fox Ang Lee offered her a high price and a commission, and poached her.”
Wu Chen pursed his lips, his tone carrying a hint of displeasure mixed with envy.
"Damn it, if it weren't for my physique, I would have gone too."
Liu Shaobing was stunned upon hearing this.
"There's a commission?"
"How many gold soul coins can you get in one auction!"
A glint flashed in his eyes.
"Then...then I want to go too!"
Wu Chen glanced at him sideways and sneered.
"you?"
"You can't do it."
Liu Shaobing was immediately displeased.
"Why can't I do it?"
"Am I, the dignified lord of Soto City, inferior to a mere little girl?"
Wu Chen chuckled and lowered his voice.
"Your ass isn't perky enough!"
Liu Shaobing's face flushed red instantly, and he pointed at Wu Chen, laughing and scolding him.
"You old lecher!"
Wu Chen grinned and touched his chin.
"Don't even mention you, that old bastard Li An also said that my ass... isn't perky enough!"
The two looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly.
DouDou was already standing on the auction stage.
Holding a small, soul-guided megaphone, her sweet voice instantly attracted everyone's attention.
"Distinguished guests, good evening! I am DouDou, the host of this auction!"
"It is a great honor to witness this unparalleled auction event with you all tonight!"
Her voice was like a nightingale singing in a valley, clear and melodious, with a unique charm.
"Before we officially begin, DouDou would like to ask everyone a question."
She blinked, keeping everyone in suspense.
"What do you all think is the most coveted treasure for Soul Masters, yet one that is so rare and unattainable?"
The audience immediately began to murmur amongst themselves.
"Of course, it has to be a powerful teacher!"
"No, no, it's a high-quality spirit ring!"
"I think it's a top-grade soul tool!"
DouDou listened to the crowd's discussion with a smile, and only continued speaking after the noise subsided.
“Everyone’s points are valid, but I think there’s something else that’s even rarer than a high-quality soul ring!”
"Once you possess it, it will allow a Soul Master's strength to undergo a qualitative leap!"
"That's right, it is—the Soul Bone!"
The moment the words "soul bone" were uttered, the entire venue fell silent for a moment, before erupting into an even more heated discussion.
DouDou looked at everyone's reaction with satisfaction, and raised her voice a few decibels again.
"And our first item up for auction today is an extremely rare soul bone!"
With a wave of her hand, a soul bone emitting a faint blue light appeared on the auction stage in front of her!
The soul bone was crystal clear, as if it were carved from the purest crystal, with a strange halo flowing across its surface.
"This soul bone comes from a bewitching fox with three thousand years of cultivation!"
"The Bewitching Fox is skilled in mental illusions, and its soul bone contains powerful mental energy."
"According to our auction house's appraisers, if this skull were absorbed by a Soul Master with a mental attribute, it would not only greatly enhance their mental power, but also grant them an extremely useful Soul Skill—Bewitching Rainbow Wave!"
DouDou's voice was incredibly seductive.
"Bewitching Rainbow Wave: Releases a fan-shaped wave of colored light, causing all enemies within its effective range to fall into a 'dazed' state for up to one second!"
"In this state, the enemy will be unable to lock onto targets or unleash skills, becoming like lambs to the slaughter!"
"Of course, the effect of this skill will be reduced when the mental strength is higher than that of the user."
"Even so, in battles of the same level, a single second of control is enough to change the course of the battle!"
The audience below the stage began to breathe rapidly.
Although it is only three thousand years old, there are very few soul bones that can be auctioned off!
Moreover, the effect is quite good!
Boost your mental strength!
Crowd control skills!
This soul bone is simply a godsend for support and control-type soul masters!
Even offensive or defensive Soul Masters can use it!
DouDou looked at the enthusiastic gazes of the crowd below the stage and smiled slightly. The time had come.
"The head soul bone of the three-thousand-year-old Bewitching Fox, starting bid—ten thousand gold soul coins!"
"Each bid increase must be at least one hundred gold soul coins!"
"The auction now begins!"
