In Douluo Continent, what is a martial soul? It's like Luckin Coffee.

Chapter 243 Mini-Game, I Misunderstood You

With the sale of the last item, the auction came to an end.

The bidders also began to prepare the venue.

For Wang Yan, this auction only yielded a handful of soul tools, falling far short of his expectations.

No matter what, we should at least get a soul tool for each of the seven Shrek Academy reserve members, but now even one for each of them isn't enough.

Fortunately, the auction wasn't entirely without its rewards.

A list-carving knife.

It's important to know that even Shrek Academy's Soul Guidance Department currently only has two List Carving Blades.

If Huo Yuhao can solve the problem of the curse inside the Soul Devouring Carving Blade.

The price of three million gold soul coins isn't really that expensive.

"Yuhao, are you really confident you can handle this murder weapon?"

The cash was exchanged for the goods, and even through the wooden box, Wang Yan still felt a chill run down his spine.

Wang Yan: The Soul-Devouring Carving Knife is indeed quite eerie.

Thinking of this, Wang Yan became even more worried.

Fortunately, the auctioneer mentioned during the introduction that Soul Masters with the Light attribute can effectively suppress the Soul Devouring Carving Blade.

Fortunately, Shrek Academy has many powerful Soul Masters with the Light attribute, such as Dean Yan Shaozhe.

If Huo Yuhao really can't handle this Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, he can send it back to the academy for those old guys to take a look at.

"Don't worry, Teacher Wang Yan."

I know my limits; I would never hurt myself.

Huo Yuhao patted his chest and assured him.

Seeing Huo Yuhao's confidence, Wang Yan handed him the wooden box containing the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife.

Yuhao has always been a sensible child who never messes things up, so Wang Yan is willing to trust him.

……

On the other side, Bai Ran and Rui Xue'er also left the Starlight Auction House.

However, before leaving, Bai Ran paid over 100,000 gold soul coins to acquire the items that Rui Xue'er had won at the auction.

I glanced at the storage soul guide that the auction staff handed me.

It was full of level four or five soul tools; there wasn't a single level six soul tool.

Although there are as many as fifteen items, if these items were to be resold on the market, it is likely that half of the money would not be recovered.

"Harkiri, aren't you just wasting your money?"

Bai Ran tossed the storage soul tool containing "scrap metal" into Rui Xue'er's hands with a hint of annoyance.

You said you neither snatched the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife from Huo Yuhao, nor did you waste a lot of money buying these low-level soul tools.

It's no exaggeration to say that many of the soul tools here aren't even as well-made as Meng Hongchen's. (Meng Hongchen: Are you trying to discredit me again?)

"Bai Ran, you don't understand."

"Okay, I didn't understand."

In fact, not to mention Bai Ran, even Rui Xue'er couldn't quite understand her previous actions.

Could it be that this was her first time attending such an auction, and somehow it triggered her inner "buy, buy, buy" instincts?

It can't just be that they want to cause trouble for Shrek Academy.

"Bai Ran, don't you think the moonlight is beautiful tonight?"

Walking on the streets of Xingluo City, especially after Bai Ran took off his mask and cloak.

Looking at Hagi Bai's profile, Rachel felt a little nervous.

In Bai Ran's memory, it was generally the case that a woman and a man walking together on the streets at night required a very close relationship.

Upon realizing this, Ruixue'er felt her breathing quicken, and she blurted out such a brainless question.

"Moonlight? Is there a moon tonight?"

Bai Ran looked up at the moon, which was practically nonexistent, and couldn't help but scratch his head.

What moon? It's not even as bright as the streetlights.

"Hagi Bai, you big idiot!" Ruixue stomped her foot angrily. The ambiguous atmosphere that had been there had almost completely disappeared after Bai Ran's words.

……

After a short while, Ruixue'er seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said, "Bai Ran, let's play a little game."

"Rui Rui, what are you planning to do now?"

Bai Ran looked around. Playing games on the street so late at night was a bit perverted.

Are there any mini-games that can't be played when we get back?
"Just tell me, are you going to play or not?"

"Okay, okay, I'll play."

Seeing Ruixue'er's stubborn appearance, Bai Ran understood that if he didn't play, she would definitely cause him some trouble later.

Rachel: Is that how you see me?
Bai Ran: No, you have no image in my heart at all.

The game that Rachel mentioned is indeed a very simple game.

The two walked one hundred steps in opposite directions, and immediately turned back when they reached one hundred steps.

Whoever turns around first wins.

What are the benefits of winning?

Upon hearing about such a boring little game, Bai Ran immediately lost interest.

Instead of wasting time like this, I'd rather go back and slice some more lemons, just in case I'm too busy to handle business tomorrow.

"You win. I'll go back to the hotel myself."

If you lose, take me back to my hotel.

Actually, given Bai Ran's fighting prowess, it's hard to say who will be protecting whom on the way back.

But Rachel just wanted to see if Haki Bai really cared about her.

If I cared, I would definitely intentionally lose to her.

"Um...okay."

After thinking for a moment, Bai Ran nodded in agreement.

If I don't have to send Ruixue back to the hotel, I can save the trouble of going back and forth and have more time to prepare for things in the shop.

Come to think of it, if Ruixueer hadn't dragged me to tonight's auction, I probably would have already finished tallying the shop's sales for the day and even sliced ​​a box of lemons.

Since the game was suggested by Ruixueer, it was naturally Ruixueer who called for the start.

Bai Ran walked the first few dozen steps very carefully.

Because, to be honest, as a food-type Soul Master, he is definitely no match for Ruixue'er in terms of speed.

Even though he is now half a head taller than Ruixueer, he still can't compare.

However, as he walked, Bai Ran realized that something was wrong.

Bai Ran always felt like something was following him.

At first, I didn't pay much attention and just thought he was some random passerby.

Bai Ran stopped walking, and the footsteps behind her also stopped.

Bai Ran: That guy Hagiwara, he won't keep following me around, will he?

Upon having this thought, Bai Ran felt a sense of unease, and sweat began to bead on his forehead.

What exactly is Harkiry up to?
She proposed the rules of the game, but she was the first to break them.

When you reach the ninety-ninth step.

Bai Ran was startled to discover that the dark shadow cast on the ground by the streetlights suddenly changed its movement.

It was as if someone had picked up a brick, ready to smash it over his head at any moment.

Upon seeing this, Bai Ran immediately stopped taking his hundredth step and stood there stunned for more than a minute.

Seeing that Haji Bai was so sensible, Ruixueer, who was following behind Bai Ran, also put away the brick in her hand.

Rachel: I thought you didn't want to take me back, Haki White. It seems I misunderstood you.
