All eyes were drawn involuntarily to that figure.
Poseidon, the Sea God Douluo.
At this moment, the only person qualified and in a position to make a bid is her.
The Sea Soul Masters held their breath, their eyes filled with anticipation and reverence.
The Soul Masters from the mainland waited quietly, filled with a strange sense of witnessing.
Ning Fengzhi looked at Ning Liu beside him, opened his mouth, but found that he couldn't say anything.
The turmoil in his heart was no less than that in anyone else's.
He had thought Ning Liu's actions were a reckless test on the edge of a cliff, but little did he know that he was not testing at all, but rather building a bridge to the clouds on the cliff.
Such a move, such a calculation, has exceeded his understanding of an eighteen-year-old.
But where did this thing come from?
"I……"
Poseidon's high priest robes fluttered without wind, and his azure eyes gazed deeply at Ning Rongrong on the platform, his gaze filled with an unprecedented gentleness.
"One gold soul coin".
No price increase, no competition.
In just a short while, Ning Rongrong's palms, which were tightly gripping the auction gavel, were already covered in sweat.
She took a deep breath and tried to keep her voice steady.
"Poseidon Douluo, Poseidon, has bid one gold soul coin. Is there a higher bid?"
She asked a perfunctory question, her gaze sweeping across the audience.
The entire room fell silent; no one responded.
No one even thought her question was superfluous; it was a matter of etiquette and a sign of respect for this extraordinary object.
"One gold soul coin, once."
"One gold soul coin, twice."
Ning Rongrong's gaze finally fell on the letter, her heart filled with mixed emotions. She raised the small auction gavel and, under everyone's watchful eyes, brought it down heavily.
"Thump!"
"make a deal!"
The crisp sound of the gavel brought this dramatic auction to a perfect close.
Applause erupted without warning.
First, the Sea Soul Masters spontaneously stood up and gave the warmest applause to Poseidon on the throne and Ning Rongrong on the stage.
The applause was devoid of the previous hostility, replaced only by heartfelt respect and gratitude.
Immediately afterwards, applause also broke out from the mainland Soul Masters.
What they were there for was to witness such an auction that would go down in history, for that sincere emotion that transcended the boundaries between gods and humans, and for Liuli Tian's divine intervention.
A maid from Poseidon Island, dressed in a white dress, walked gracefully onto the stage and respectfully accepted the letter from Ning Rongrong.
Ning Rongrong looked at her, nodded, and then walked off the stage with a sigh of relief, running back to Ning Liu's side in a flash.
"Senior brother!"
She plopped down, lowered her voice, and spoke with a mixture of relief and resentment.
"Next time you do something like this, can't you at least give me a heads-up?! I was scared out of my wits!"
Ning Liu turned his head to look at her flushed face, which was red from excitement and lingering fear. A smile appeared on his lips as he handed her a glass of warm water.
"Isn't this a very good performance?"
Ning Rongrong was about to say something more when Ning Liu gestured for her to be quiet and turned his gaze back to the front.
At this moment, the letter had been presented to Poseidon.
Poseidon didn't take it immediately; she simply gazed silently at the yellowed parchment, trying to see through it to the ages past. After a long while, she finally reached out her slightly trembling hand and gently picked it up.
The moment her fingertips touched the letter, the divine power of the "God of Good Deeds" that remained on the letter was completely activated.
A soft blue light emanated from Poseidon's hand, instantly enveloping the entire auction house.
Everyone felt as if they were enveloped by warm seawater, and a sense of peace and tranquility rose from the depths of their souls.
This is... a baptism of divine grace!
The sea spirit masters trembled with excitement, kneeling down to devoutly accept this unexpected blessing. Even the continental spirit masters, under the cleansing power of this force, felt as if their spirit power bottlenecks had loosened slightly.
Ning Fengzhi was shocked. He never imagined that a "replica" love letter would have such a miraculous effect!
This is no auction, this is clearly an opportunity! An incredible opportunity, orchestrated by Liuli Tian, bestowed upon everyone present!
Only Ning Liu heard the system's voice in his mind the moment the divine light shone.
The voice was cold and mechanical, yet it carried a supreme, law-like quality.
[Ding! Host has successfully auctioned the rare item – "The Sea God's First Love Letter (Replica)".]
Auction price: One Gold Soul Coin.
[The 1000x return mechanism has been triggered, and the return is in progress...]
[Refund successful!]
[Congratulations, host, you have obtained the soul of Poseidon's First Love, Ah Yue!]
A series of system notifications exploded in Ning Liu's mind, instantly stirring up a tidal wave in his usually calm and composed state of mind.
His consciousness sank into the system space, where he saw a fist-sized crystal, entirely azure blue, as if carved from the purest sea crystal, quietly floating in a corner of the space.
The interior of a crystal is not empty.
A faint, almost transparent phantom, like Sleeping Beauty, curled up at the core of the crystal.
The silhouette of the phantom could be vaguely discerned as that of a woman, with long, flowing hair and a serene face.
A sense of sorrow and longing, originating from the depths of the soul, emanated from the crystal, as if transcending countless ages, allowing one to feel its presence deeply.
