After everyone followed Ning Tian into the private room, they were immediately drawn to the huge, smooth wall in front of them.
The Heavenly Soul Empire, through the research and development of the Soul Research Institute, also has a similar projection soul guide device. However, that one was presented by Huo Yuhao based on light magic and using the soul guide core array as a carrier.
So the light guide screen itself wasn't attractive; what drew their attention was what the waiter said about the screen's core energy source being minerals.
Using ore to power soul tools means that ordinary people will also be able to use soul tools in the future.
Seeing Huo Yuhao's keen interest, Ning Tian immediately pulled out his gold card: "I'll buy this screen."
Huo Yuhao chuckled, "No need."
He and Tianmeng had just used their mental detection abilities to carefully observe the internal structure of the screen.
"I just used my mental detection to check it out. The core of this light guide screen is a mineral called Mingyang Soul Stone. The energy it emits is very gentle and weak, which is perfect for making a screen, but not for use as an attack."
"The principle is simple, but the difficulty lies in finding the inspiration and then realizing that inspiration."
"We can mine some ice-attribute ores from the North, and then use the same method to create a cold storage box for food, or a cooling device in summer that can release cold air or not through some kind of switch."
1,
Drawing inferences from one instance, Huo Yuhao's words immediately gave everyone a great deal of inspiration.
They expressed their thoughts through a shared understanding.
Some say that fire-attribute minerals can be used to design heating devices, while others suggest referencing this screen to design a photo-taking device to capture moments in people's lives.
Some even suggest using lightning-attribute ores to power a logging saw.
Since they wouldn't be in charge of production anyway, the more they discussed it, the more excited they became, and all sorts of wild ideas kept popping up.
Ning Tian remained silent, simply taking note of everyone's suggestions and preparing to have the Nine Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Heavenly Soul Empire discuss cooperation later.
This thing called the "people's livelihood soul guide device" will definitely be a treasure trove in the future, and may be even more profitable than arms.
Huo Yuhao made the final decision: "The image-recording soul tool that Sister Qiuqiu mentioned is not difficult. I can design it before the competition ends."
"When everyone lifts the championship trophy, we'll use this as a souvenir."
"Alright, the auction has started now. Let's see if there's anything you need."
An auctioneer named Xu Jiujiu slowly walked to the platform in front of a huge soul-guided screen.
She performed a very elaborate but elegant greeting to the people in the auction room before introducing the first item.
"His surname is Xu, and he also knows the court etiquette of Xingluo Palace."
Huo Yuhao pondered, "It seems that Xu Jiujiu's identity is not simple."
At Ning Tian's prompting, the auction house manager carefully spoke up: "This auctioneer, Jiu Jiu, is actually His Majesty's younger sister."
9"
Huo Yuhao simply said "oh" and stopped speculating.
Starlight Auction House has royal connections, and Xu Jiujiu may be the manager of the Starlight Royal Family at the auction house.
But Huo Yuhao quickly realized that something was wrong.
The Heavenly Soul Empire had absolutely no information about this long-standing Soul Master.
Unless Xu Jiujiu's talent is exceptionally poor, it's impossible for a member of the royal family to be completely unknown in the world of Soul Masters.
"Could it be, like Vina's case, a hidden tactic employed by the imperial family?"
Huo Yuhao quickly communicated with everyone through the resonance of their hearts: "After we go back, we should investigate the methods of the Star Crown Sect, especially their Star Crown Martial Soul, and see what outstanding performance they had during the continent defense war."
Meanwhile, Xu Jiujiu on the platform glanced at the private room where Huo Yuhao and the others were, intentionally or unintentionally.
After much discussion, Xu Jiawei decided not to bring the piece of icy jadeite left arm bone to the auction.
This was Xu Jiawei's way of leaving the Star Crown Clan a means to establish contact with Huo Yuhao, from the perspective of the clan's patriarch.
From the perspective of the Star Luo Emperor, Xu Jiawei would not hesitate to use the soul bone as a political bargaining chip.
However, as the patriarch of the Star Crown Sect, from the perspective of a Soul Master, he must consider the inheritance of the Star Crown Sect.
However, Xu Jiawei is currently facing a major headache regarding when and under what circumstances this soul bone should be given to Huo Yuhao, while also preventing him from causing large-scale casualties on the battlefield with his Ice Explosion Technique.
This is the biggest drawback of a sect leader serving as the head of an empire.
Balancing the interests of the sect with its own legacy often leads to a dilemma.
The first item in the auction has been displayed: an eighth-level soul tool resembling a horse-slaying sword, named the Tyrant Tiger Soul-Refining Blade.
It contains a soul bone from the Ten Thousand Year Tyrant Tiger, which, when used by a Soul Saint, will give them the potential to challenge a Soul Douluo.
Shrek Academy is determined to acquire this item.
In their view, as long as this knife is given to Ma Xiaotao, even if the three ultimate Di'ao teams are on the field at the same time, they will not be a threat.
The starting bid for the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade was 600,000 gold soul coins, but Shrek Academy immediately jumped the bid, offering 1.5 million.
Huo Yuhao reached out and stopped Ning Tian, who was about to shout "Add another bite!"
He shook his head: "It doesn't matter. With the Heavenly Scale Ancient Halberd and the Golden Dragon Spear, the Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade can't cause any trouble."
Ning Tian then put down his gold card.
The next item up for auction was a set of twelve fixed-mount soul-guided cannon shells with different attributes.
"Just how much did Xuanji Douluo trade with them?"
Huo Yuhao was somewhat puzzled after bidding on the item.
How come everything at today's top auction is associated with Mingdetang?
The Tyrant Tiger Soul Refining Blade, twelve level-six fixed-position soul-guided cannonballs, rare metals—it's finally something that doesn't belong to the Mingde Hall, but it turns out to be a Heaven-Opening Earth-Opening Cannon made by a level-nine soul master.
The Heaven-Opening Earth-Piercing Cannon, an eighth-level soul tool, can only be used once a day. Its direct burst of power is equivalent to the full-force attack of a level 95 Super Douluo.
However, it can only target fixed targets and is basically useless in battles of the same level.
This time, Huo Yuhao borrowed money from Ning Tian to bid for the item, using his identity as a researcher at the Soul Forging Research Institute.
The auction was nearing its end, and Huo Yuhao gave Long Ao an eyeball.
Long Aotian understood and, finding a plausible excuse, left the private room with Yu Tianlong and Xingyan.
However, before he and Yu Tianlong had gone far, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly came from one of the private rooms in the auction house.
This seemed to trigger a chain reaction, and a series of eerie winds suddenly howled through the vast Starlight Auction House.
The Soul Douluo tears away his disguise.
His spirit rings lit up one after another, and he activated the Myriad Souls Domain with his Myriad Souls True Body, releasing tens of thousands of vengeful spirits!
The vengeful spirits raged wildly in the auction house, their mournful cries echoing throughout.
At the same time, the Abomination Douluo, who was lying in ambush outside the Starlight Auction House, also used his Martial Soul True Form.
The colossal abomination descended from the sky, smashing the giant hammer Douluo's head with a single punch.
A gaping wound opened in his abdomen, spewing out highly toxic miasma: "Kill these geniuses and then leave!"
The entire auction hall instantly descended into chaos.
Xuanzi suddenly stood up: "The children go first!"
Yan Shaozhe looked at Wan Hun Douluo with a strange expression and a questioning look.
Didn't these two people do any research before they came out?
But Yan Shaozhe quickly realized that Ye Xishui had long since given up on those two evil soul titles.
These two were probably hiding somewhere to recuperate from their injuries. Now that they've recovered, they rushed to Xingluo City. They either didn't have time or didn't even think about finding out anything about the mainland.
The Shrek team members retreated under Yan Shaozhe's cover.
