After Tang Hao left, the auction house fell into a deathly silence.
However, the simple and direct clash between the three titled Douluo still echoed in everyone's minds.
Sword Douluo Chen Xin's expression turned solemn as he slowly sheathed the Seven Kill Sword.
"Level 95."
His voice carried a hint of surprise.
"Moreover, that domain... is incredibly domineering!"
Within that domain, the pure killing intent even caused his sword intent to feel a slight stagnation.
Xu Jiushi stepped forward and stood beside him, his expression equally unpleasant.
"When the fields collided, that person gave me the impression of being quite young."
"To have such cultivation at such a young age, and that hammer..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Xin did not continue speaking.
He boasted about his swordsmanship and attack skills. Although he did not use his full strength today, he had still broken through to level 97!
But the other side doesn't seem to be having much trouble either!
Haotian Hammer...
The name itself represents the ultimate!
Another VIP room.
Tang San bit his lip hard, his body trembling uncontrollably.
That massive black hammer exuded a domineering aura that was both familiar and strange...
His second martial soul just automatically revealed itself!
Flander and Yu Xiaogang exchanged a glance, both seeing deep shock in each other's eyes.
However, the two tacitly chose to remain silent.
Inside the venue, Ning Liu took a deep breath, forcing himself to calm down.
The level of power in that exchange left him feeling powerless.
He was indeed quite proud of himself because his spirit power had increased due to the evolution of his martial spirit.
Seeing you today, I realize how vast and profound the world is.
My own strength is laughably insignificant in the face of a true powerhouse!
"It seems I was still too complacent."
Ning Liu chuckled to himself, the thought of becoming stronger clearer than ever before.
He left the auction house and walked to the center of the chaotic auction stage.
Below the stage, thousands of eyes were fixed on him.
There was surprise, curiosity, and a bit of a sense of watching the spectacle.
"Gentlemen."
Ning Liu's voice resounded throughout the entire arena through his soul power.
"What happened today was due to the poor hospitality of my Qibao Auction House, which caused you all to be frightened."
"My name is Ning Liu, and I am the new owner of the Qibao Auction House in Soto City."
"On behalf of Qibao Auction House, I would like to express my sincerest apologies for the accident that happened today."
After he finished speaking, he bowed deeply.
A murmur immediately broke out in the audience.
"So young? He's the new owner?"
"A direct descendant of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School?"
"Who cares? Such a big thing has happened, let's see how he handles it."
Ning Liu straightened up and continued speaking.
"The Water of Life was consigned for auction by a distinguished guest, and now that it has been stolen, Qibao Auction House cannot escape responsibility."
"I hereby announce that Qibao Auction House will compensate the owner with five million gold soul coins as restitution for this incident."
Wow!
These words shocked everyone present.
Five million gold soul coins!
This is no small sum.
Even for some top-tier sects and noble families in the royal city, this is a real fortune.
If it were to disappear like this, it would surely lead to the destruction of families and the ruin of sects!
This young owner of the venue is incredibly decisive!
"Good! Manager Ning is responsible!"
Someone shouted first, and then a chorus of echoes followed.
"That's right, we can't entirely blame the auction house for this. Who would have thought that such a powerful Title Douluo would come to snatch the item?"
"It's really kind of you, Owner Ning, to go to such lengths!"
"The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is a large and powerful organization, but the auction house's attitude is commendable."
People's impression of Ning Liu improved significantly in an instant, and the slight dissatisfaction caused by the previous incident vanished.
Ning Liu bowed again.
Thank you all for your understanding.
"The auction will continue, please be patient."
He gestured, and supervisor Li An quickly arranged for several waiters to come forward and begin cleaning up the mess on the table.
...
Inside the venue.
Ning Rongrong looked at Ning Liu as he returned to the private room, her little mouth pouting high.
"Senior brother, that's five million gold soul coins!"
"Are we just going to lose money like this?"
She was sulking.
"That person is awful! When I get back, I'll tell Dad that we'll find him and teach him a lesson!"
Sword Douluo Chen Xin and Xu Jiushi also came in.
Ning Liu glanced at Ning Rongrong, his tone calm.
"Rongrong, money is a small matter."
"What we should see today is the gap between us."
"If you and I had Soul Saint cultivation today, and could provide Elder Sword and Brother Shi with sufficient boosts, how could that person have left so easily?"
Ning Rongrong fell silent upon hearing this.
Although she was spoiled, she wasn't stupid.
Ning Liu's words hit the nail on the head.
Upon hearing this, Sword Douluo Chen Xin gave Ning Liu an approving look.
"Ning Liu is right."
"It's good that you have this mindset now."
"A mere five million gold soul coins is nothing to my Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School!"
He paused, then continued.
"I just never expected that Soto City would attract such a person."
Ning Liu didn't speak, but a voice quietly echoed in his mind.
[Ding! The fifth auction item, 'Water of Life,' failed to sell. The host will not receive the corresponding reward.]
[Penalty mechanism triggered: In the next three auctions, the host can list a maximum of nine items for auction. If the auction failure penalty mechanism is not triggered after three auctions, the maximum number of items will be reduced to ten!]
