Unrivaled Tang Sect: Xiao Ding Zhen Tian

Chapter 136 Reasonable Distribution
"Please give us a brief introduction to the specifications of today's auction." Following the etiquette lady, Wang Yan took the initiative to ask.

The etiquette lady had a polite smile on her face. "Today's auction is a special auction for soul guides. Since only soul guides below level six are auctioned, the specifications are relatively low. According to the classification, it can only be considered a level four auction. Our Starlight Auction House has a classification from one to five, with level one being the highest specification. Only level one auctions will be held in the main auction hall. This is Hall 12, which can accommodate two hundred people bidding at the same time. It is specially used for level four auctions."

Wang Yan nodded, "Thank you."

Entering the auction room No. 12, the light suddenly dimmed, because there were only wall lamps around. Everyone who entered the auction room would receive a beautiful mask, and the masks were divided into different colors. Xiao Yun and his friends received a white one, and I don't know what it means. In addition to the white mask, there seemed to be yellow, purple, black, red and gold masks.

The decoration inside the auction hall was another feeling, simple, elegant, luxurious yet warm. Just walking in gave me a very comfortable feeling. Two hundred comfortable large chairs were covered with dark blue velvet cloth, arranged in an arc shape. Probably because of Dai Yaoheng's appearance, the Shrek people were arranged in the first row, which was also the place closest to the auction table.

"Everyone, put on your masks. There may be various problems when participating in an auction at an auction house, so the auction house provides masks to cover the guests' appearance to avoid trouble. The color of the mask is also used to distinguish the level of the guests. It is the same as the color grading of our spirit rings. The lowest is white, and the colors go up in order. The gold color, which is above the red, is the top VIP of this auction house. They usually don't appear in this kind of auction house with scattered seats."

This was not the first time Xiao Yun participated in an auction. Although he had always been in the box with the Lord of South Gate when he was in Maple Leaf City, he still understood the rules.

At this time, the auction hall was already filled with % to % of the bidders. A waiter came over and asked if they wanted drinks.

Xiao Yun ordered a dessert for Xiao Xiao and Yuner respectively, and ordered a bowl of noodles for himself.

Well, I don’t know if it’s because of my improved physical condition, but now my appetite is much larger than before.

Looking at the guest sitting in the first row eating a bowl of noodles with spicy oil, many of the audience in the back rows twitched their lips slightly.

"Welcome to the Starlight Auction House. Our auction is about to begin. Please take your seats." A beautiful female voice came from all directions, and the auction room fell silent. The wall lamps, which were not very bright to begin with, gradually dimmed, while the lights on the auction table gradually became brighter.

A woman wearing a purple dress walked onto the stage from one side of the auction hall. She looked about thirty years old, with a dignified and beautiful appearance, and a faint smile on her face. As she walked, she looked graceful and graceful. The well-tailored long skirt perfectly outlined the curves of her mature body.

Many customers' eyes widened. This was definitely the most lethal appearance and figure to men. This auction house really knew how to grasp the mentality of customers.

Generally speaking, whether it is an auction house or a large auction venue, appearance is the first factor when selecting an auctioneer. Not only should they be good-looking, but male auctioneers should have a decent appearance, while female auctioneers should be dignified and beautiful. This will give the bidders a sense of trust. After all, although appearance is not absolute, it can often easily give people a good or bad first impression.

Xiao Yun didn't change much, and he didn't even look at the woman. In his opinion, the woman was only mature and graceful. In terms of appearance, there were many more beautiful girls around her.

However, the targets of the purple-skirted woman are actually those who are more mature, such as Xu Sanshi.

If Jiang Nannan hadn't been sitting next to him, he would probably have stared at her for a long time without being able to take his eyes off her.

The profession of auctioneer also has levels, which should be divided according to the color of Xiao Yun's mask, similar to the Shrek school uniform. The purple skirt indicates that this woman's level should be around middle to lower, which is in line with the level of this auction.

At this time, the purple-skirted auctioneer on the stage had walked behind the auction case with a smile on her face, and a soft female voice echoed softly in Auction Hall No. 12 with the help of the amplified soul guide on the auction case.

"Good evening, distinguished guests, I am Qingya, a purple-level auctioneer from Starlight Auction House, and I will be hosting the auction today."

After saying that, she walked out from behind the auction, bowed to the audience with a smile, and immediately received a round of applause.

However, no male guests cried out in surprise. Although many of them had some thoughts about this elegant auctioneer, they were able to enter this auction and were more or less well-known figures, so they attached great importance to their dignity.

"Today's auction is a special auction for soul guides. All the items are soul guides below level 6. They are suitable for soul masters and soul guides with the cultivation level of Soul King and below. At the same time, in order to make the trip worthwhile for all the distinguished guests, we have one last mysterious gift item. Dear distinguished guests, please don't miss it. Our auction starts now, please ask the staff to present the first item of today."

Two girls in red skirts pushed a small cart onto the auction stage. The cart was covered with a purple cloth. They pushed the cart to the middle and stopped it, then lifted the cloth.

A black soul guide appeared on the cart. This soul guide was rectangular in shape, about a foot long, and had complex patterns engraved on it.

The person who had the most profound knowledge about soul guides was Wang Yan. After carefully examining the shape of the soul guide, he thought for a moment and said, "It should be an offensive soul guide for use on the arm. It is about level three, suitable for soul masters with the ability to fly."

At this point, he glanced at Yuner and said, "What a pity, Yuner's martial spirit uses her arms to transform into wings for fighting. If she had wings on her back, this soul guide would be very suitable for her."

Nanmen Yoona's martial soul, the Jade Blue Bird, can only be regarded as a relatively excellent martial soul, and it is not a top-notch martial soul at all. However, due to Xiao Yun, who has helped Nanmen Yoona a lot, her cultivation is among the best in the second grade.

In fact, to be honest, Nammun Yoona's skills and talent shouldn't have allowed her to enter the reserve team. If it weren't for Master Xuan's insistence on creating a free-for-all competition system and normal ranking, not to mention her, even Dugu Jing wouldn't have been able to advance.

People like Dai Huabin and Ning Tian are more talented than Nanmen Yoona and Dugu Jing.

Xiao Yun smiled slightly, "In fact, I think that compared to this kind of soul guide, the soul guide thruster and defensive shield should be more suitable for Yuner. Moreover, Teacher Wang Yan, we are still young now. In the future, when our cultivation is improved and our skills are more abundant, it will be the best time to match the soul guide. We can even tailor a soul guide set that is most suitable for us."

Wang Yan nodded, "You are right. Unfortunately, our academy has produced many geniuses over the years, but almost none of them are willing to explore the soul guides. For example, Dean Yan and Dean Cai have high cultivation bases, but when facing Dean Xian Lin'er, who cultivates both martial spirit and soul guides, they are actually at a disadvantage."

"My former teacher was a student of Master Xuan, and he was also a classmate of Dean Yan. He mentioned to me before that Dean Yan's talent when he was young was actually the strongest except for Dean Qian Duoduo. But in terms of real strength, Dean Cai and Dean Xian are actually a little stronger than Dean Yan. If it weren't for the fact that Dean Cai is Dean Yan's wife, and Dean Xian joined the Soul Guidance Department, otherwise, the current Dean of the Martial Soul Department would not be Dean Yan." This was the first time everyone had heard of it, and Dai Yuheng felt the same way.

Although Dean Yan appears to be quite dignified on a daily basis, it is said that he seems to have major problems with his personal emotions.

While everyone at Shrek was communicating, Qingya continued to introduce this soul guide device.

"Our number one lot is a level 3 attack soul guide, a relatively common soul guide ray. Normally, this kind of ordinary soul guide cannot be auctioned at our auction. However, this level 3 soul guide ray, which can be attached to the right arm, was made by a level 6 soul guide. It is a special work, which is rare. In the hands of the master who made it, it was simplified into something complex, and the internal core array added special effects."

"The soul guide ray has paralysis effect, so its real name should be the soul guide paralysis ray. After being hit, all soul masters below the level of soul king will be affected. The degree of the impact is related to the soul master's own cultivation."

"We have already tested it. This soul-guided paralysis ray acts on the soul king and can paralyze him for about one second. The premise is that the soul king is hit and does not use soul skills or soul-guided devices for defense. And the effect on the soul king On Zong's body, it can be paralyzed for more than two seconds, with the same conditions. And a three-ring soul master of the same level as it can be paralyzed for about three to four seconds."

"Please note that all the tests we conducted were targeted at offensive spirit masters. If it was a spirit master of another type, the results would definitely be different."

"This soul-guided paralysis ray has low requirements on the user, but it is very practical. It is a rare and exquisite product among the third-level soul-guided devices. The starting price is one thousand gold soul coins, and each increase in price shall not be less than fifty gold soul coins. Start now."

As soon as Qing Ya finished speaking, someone immediately raised a sign, "Thirteen hundred gold soul coins."

As auctioneer Qingya said, it is very rare for a level 6 master to create a level 3 soul guide. Although this soul guide is not of high level, it is extremely practical. It is very useful for a level 4 soul master. The low usage requirements have become its biggest advantage.

Therefore, the auction price kept rising and soon passed the mark of two thousand gold soul coins.

You know, this soul guide has a clever design and a finely crafted core array, but the material is not outstanding. After all, it is only a third-level soul guide, and at this price, it is already quite high. An ordinary third-level soul guide only sells for a few hundred gold soul coins.

After crossing two thousand, it really stopped and some of the previous bidders were already hesitating. Everyone has a certain amount of money, and this is the first auction item.

Xiao Yun narrowed his eyes slightly. Although the Xingluo Empire has been actively studying and developing soul guides in recent years, their precision and market value are far inferior to those of the Sun-Moon Empire.

He had come into contact with many soul guides of the Sun and Moon Mingde Hall before, and they were soul guides that the Mingde Hall thought were not of much value. Each of them was extremely sophisticated. Even if they were just made casually, the precision of the craftsmanship and drawings were not comparable to those of Xingluo's soul guides.

Although Xiao Yun had no interest in it, Wang Yan obviously had ideas about this soul guide device.

"Two thousand five hundred gold soul coins." He raised the sign and raised the price.

Auctioneer Qingya's eyes lit up, and she smiled at the masked Wang Yan, "VIP number 166 bids 2,500 gold soul coins. Is there anyone else to add?"

Auctioneers earn their income from commissions on auction items. For example, the cost price of an item is one hundred, and the price is two hundred. Then, the auction house directly takes 10% of the total amount as remuneration, while the auctioneer takes 1,000% of the 100 that exceeds the cost.

Don't underestimate the number of one thousandth. Even for a level 4 auction, it is normal to earn more than 100,000 gold soul coins. As the largest auction house in Xingluo City and even in the entire Xingluo Empire, there are several auctions almost every day. Some high-level auctioneers often only appear once a month and can earn extremely high commissions.

Therefore, when Qingya saw Wang Yan directly raise the price by 500, she was naturally pleased. As a purple-level auctioneer, she knew very well that in many cases, the price of the first item would determine the price trend of the entire auction. Although this first item was not very expensive, if the premium was high enough, it would definitely be a good start.

As soon as the number of 2,500 came out, the whole audience fell silent, and the bidders who were hesitating before no longer thought about it. This price was obviously a lot higher than the previous one.

"Two thousand five hundred gold soul coins, once." After Qingya asked several times and no one bid, she started the final three bids.

This is when the spirit of a top auction house is reflected. Small auction houses generally delay the last three bids as much as possible, but Qingya did not do that at all. The three bids were called out consecutively.

"Bang." The auction gavel hit the table. "Deal. This soul-guided paralysis ray belongs to VIP No. 166. Thank you for your generosity." Qingya smiled sweetly at Wang Yan again, and Wang Yan nodded gently to her.

“Although it’s only a third-level soul guide, it can still produce certain effects in actual combat. You guys discuss who to give it to.” Wang Yan knew that Dai Yuheng didn’t care about this third-level soul guide, so he turned his gaze to the people in the reserve team.

"Give it to Senior Sister Jiang Nannan." Xiao Yun suddenly spoke at this time. Jiang Nannan looked at him in surprise, and the latter smiled at her. "Yun'er and Dugu have lower cultivation levels, and they probably won't have many opportunities to play in the elimination rounds. My sister has an external soul bone, and her main task is to cooperate with me to control the field. With me here, the possibility of her being eliminated is very small. The comprehensive abilities of Lao Xu and Beibei are still much stronger than Senior Sister Jiang, and this soul guide is mainly based on control, which is very suitable for you who mainly fights in close combat."

"I believe everyone has no objection to this arrangement, right?"

Xu Sanshi chuckled, "I think this arrangement is simply brilliant. Xiao Yun, if you have any problems in the future, just look for me. Even if a Soul Saint comes to trouble you, I can help you."

Xiao Yun rolled his eyes and said, "First, raise your cultivation to a level higher than mine before you say such things."
