After a brief silence, someone finally spoke cautiously.
"110,000 gold soul coins".
The voice was soft, and carried a hint of probing.
"One hundred thousand two thousand."
Another voice followed closely behind, sounding somewhat nonchalant.
The bidding was intermittent, with each bid only increasing the minimum limit, a stark contrast to the fervor that DouDou had previously touted as the "miracle of a lost era."
Clearly, most people still have reservations about the actual value of this "disposable item".
Inside a private room, Prince Xuexing held a wine glass, the scarlet liquid inside swirling slightly, a contemptuous smile playing on his lips.
"Something from a lost era?"
He scoffed.
"Hmph, in the royal treasury, there are at least eighty or a hundred of these things that are said to come from lost times and ancient ruins."
"Most of them are just pretentious charlatans; very few are actually useful. They're not as practical as an ordinary soul bone."
Poison Douluo nodded as well.
"These kinds of things are just for show, don't take them seriously. If they were really some kind of earth-shattering treasure, they wouldn't have ended up in a place like this."
On the other side, in a private room.
Flander stroked his chin, his eyes flickering uncertainly.
"This scroll is quite interesting, Xiao Gang, what do you think?"
Yu Xiaogang remained silent, but Tang San's gaze remained fixed on the ancient scroll on the auction stage.
Then, he turned his head and whispered to Yu Xiaogang, "Teacher, I want to take a picture of it."
Yu Xiaogang nodded slightly.
“I have read many ancient books, many of which contain records of similar strange objects. Perhaps I can find some clues in them.”
His curiosity about the unknown is no less than Tang San's.
Just as the bidding was becoming increasingly sparse and the atmosphere was slightly awkward, Tang San's calm and clear voice rang out.
"150,000 gold soul coins".
This price is nearly 30,000 gold soul coins higher than the previous highest bid.
The room immediately quieted down, and those who had originally wanted to haggle slowly shook their heads.
DouDou's gaze lingered for a moment in the direction of Tang San's private room.
"150,000 Gold Soul Coins per time!"
"twice!"
"three times!"
"make a deal!"
DouDou's small hammer fell cleanly and decisively.
"Congratulations to this distinguished guest for successfully bidding on this Soul Skill Imprint Scroll from a Lost Era!"
Inside the venue, Ning Liu heard a system notification in his mind.
[Ding! The eighth auction item, 'Soul Skill Imprint Scroll (Beginner)', has been successfully auctioned for 150,000 Gold Soul Coins.]
[Triggered a 100x reward! Congratulations, host, you have obtained 10 Soul Skill Imprint Scrolls (Intermediate)!]
[Soul Skill Imprint Scroll (Intermediate): Allows for one-time copying, storage, and activation of any soul skill from Soul Kings and lower-level Soul Masters!]
A sense of disappointment welled up in his heart.
When he first obtained the Soul Skill Imprint Scroll, he thought it would at least cause a fierce battle, but in the end it was only sold for 150,000 Gold Soul Coins.
The entire auction was lukewarm at best.
It seems that, besides poverty, limited perspective and cognition are indeed the biggest shackles restricting imagination.
However, the system's maximum return for this item was already 100 times, so it can be considered that the item was used to its fullest potential.
Intermediate scrolls can imprint the soul skills of Soul Kings, and their value is vastly different from that of beginner scrolls.
On the auction stage, DouDou spoke again.
"Distinguished guests, the exciting moments always fly by. Next up is the ninth item in our auction!"
Her voice rose and fell in rhythm, attempting to reignite the atmosphere in the room.
Before introducing this item, I would like to explain a piece of common knowledge in the world of Soul Masters.
DouDou paused for a moment, then glanced around the room to make sure he had attracted enough attention.
"As we all know, there are strict time limits for Soul Masters to absorb Soul Rings."
"The first spirit ring has a limit of 423 years; the second spirit ring, 864 years; the third spirit ring, 1760 years; the fourth spirit ring, 5000 years; the fifth spirit ring, 12000 years."
"The sixth spirit ring takes 20,000 years; the seventh spirit ring's theoretical limit is 50,000 years, but the optimal absorption range is between 30,000 and 50,000 years!"
"For a powerful Soul Master, the eighth Soul Ring requires at least 50,000 years; as for the ninth Soul Ring, the goal is to obtain the legendary 100,000-year Soul Ring."
No one understood why DouDou had brought this up.
These are all theories known to everyone in the Soul Master world.
"These are not just cold numbers, but ironclad rules proven by the blood and lives of countless predecessors of the Soul Master. Absorbing a Soul Ring that is above one's level will at best damage one's Martial Soul and stagnate one's cultivation, and at worst shatter one's meridians and cause one to explode and die!"
After DouDou finished speaking, she changed the subject.
"However, there are always exceptions!"
"The extraordinary item we are auctioning today may, to some extent, break this rule!"
Upon hearing this, everyone's interest was piqued once again!
Break the law of the time limit for absorbing spirit rings?
A maid carefully carried a crystal-clear jade box onto the auction stage.
The moment the lid is opened, you can see the crystal-clear droplets emitting a soft glow.
An indescribable, strange energy fluctuation slowly emanated from the droplet, invigorating anyone who smelled it.
DouDou's voice carried a hint of barely suppressed excitement.
"This substance is called Soul Ring Fusion Liquid!"
