I am the son of the Dragon God in Douluo Continent.
Chapter 171: The Soul of a Ferocious Beast
After calming down from his initial excitement, Xu Jiawei asked, "So, what do you two intend to do by handing this ferocious beast's soul over to our Xingluo sect?"
"It's not a gift to you Starry Sky," Xu Xingyu explained. "I heard that your Starlight Auction House is planning a big sale recently, so we're thinking of taking this opportunity to sell this item."
"Sell?" Xu Jiawei looked at Xu Xingyu and the other person with some confusion.
Shouldn't souls of ferocious beast level be kept by their own people? Even if they were to be sold, they wouldn't be handed over to an auction house! And why is it theirs, Xingluo's?
But just then, Xu Jiawei remembered that it was the Soul Master Competition, so geniuses from the four great empires had come to Star Luo City. Therefore, this auction would not only have people from Star Luo, but also people from all over Douluo Continent.
It's obvious that the Spirit Pagoda wants to take advantage of this publicity spree. After all, once it's confirmed that the Spirit Pagoda has the existence of ferocious beast spirits, countless people will give everything to get their hands on one.
As mentioned before, it is usually impossible to absorb the soul of a ferocious beast. However, if the ferocious beast has already become a soul, it means that the beast itself has the desire to choose a host.
Therefore, the fusion process is not like directly killing the ferocious beast and absorbing its spirit ring. Instead, the beast's spirit will actively fuse with that person as long as it recognizes them, thus achieving a sacrifice-like effect.
Gu Yuena, who was standing nearby, said, "Also, if you can help us with the publicity work in advance, please do so."
Xu Jiawei immediately responded, "No problem. It's an honor for our Starlight Auction House to sell such a product. Leave the publicity work to us."
"That's good then." Xu Xingyu handed a report to Xu Jiawei and said, "This contains all the information about this ferocious beast's soul. Hopefully, we can see it at the auction the day after tomorrow. As for the starting price, we can set it at one hundred million gold soul coins."
"One hundred million?" Xu Jiujiu exclaimed in surprise.
Xu Jiujiu was so surprised not because the price was so expensive, but because she felt that the price was a bit too low.
You should know that Xu Jiujiu is also a part-time auctioneer at Starlight Auction House. In her opinion, buying this soul spirit for 100 million gold soul coins is practically giving it away for free!
After all, this is a ferocious beast-level soul spirit! A ferocious beast-level soul ring and soul bone are things that even a billion gold soul coins might not be able to buy.
Xu Xingyu only sold it for 100 million gold soul coins?!? What on earth is this young master of the Spirit Pagoda thinking?!
However, what Gu Yuena said next made her completely understand their thoughts. Gu Yuena said, "One hundred million is fine, but when selling, please inform everyone present that this is the first and last time our Qiling Tower will sell ferocious beast souls at auction. In the future, you can only buy them at Qiling Tower, but the price will not be as cheap as this time."
So this was a tactic the two used to lure people in! After saying that this was the last time it would be sold at auction, and that the price wouldn't be this cheap afterward, those people would definitely fight tooth and nail for this ferocious beast's soul.
After all, what if the price of the Spirit Pagoda is more than ten times that of this one? Then why not bid for the ferocious beast spirit in front of us now?
In any case, a person usually doesn't need that many ferocious beast spirits; one is basically enough.
It can only be said that the Spirit Tower truly lives up to its reputation as a force that rose to power by selling souls; they are already masters of business.
After explaining the other details about the soul to be sold, Xu Xingyu and Gu Yuena left the palace.
As Xu Jiawei and his sister Xu Jiujiu watched the two figures leave, they couldn't help but sigh, "We never imagined that Xu Tian would have such an outstanding grandson. It seems that our decision back then was the right one. I think you won't object anymore now, will you? Such a person is well-worthy of you."
Xu Jiujiu blushed and said, "Come on, maybe I'm good enough for him, but that's only if he's interested in me, right? After all, there are plenty of pretty girls around him. I've never seen him show any interest in me."
When she first learned that her brother and the ministers wanted to marry her off to a girl who was five or six years younger than her, she was extremely unwilling.
However, as a princess of a country, she knew that her personal feelings were insignificant in the face of national affairs, so she could only helplessly comply with the insistence of her brother and the ministers.
However, ever since she met Xu Xingyu a year ago, this princess has been captivated by the talent displayed by the young man named Xu Xingyu.
Whether it was the business negotiation just now, the various strategies he employed a year ago to seize the mineral veins from the Sun Moon Empire, or his unparalleled cultivation talent, all of these proved that Xu Xingyu was destined to stand at the very top of the Douluo Continent.
After a long time, she began to be less resistant to her engagement with the other person and started making preparations for what she would need to do after marrying into the family.
What puzzled her was Xu Xingyu's attitude towards her; it was more like a friendship than a fiancée relationship.
To be honest, I'm a little unwilling. I'm not only a princess of a country, but also a rare beauty. Is it necessary to always look like I don't know what to do?
After thinking about this for a long time, he sighed. Did he really have to carry out that plan? Forget it, let's discuss this with my elder brother first.
At the same time, Xu Xingyu encountered a problem: Gu Yuena had not arranged a place for her to stay this time.
Gu Yuena's idea was that wherever she was cultivating, she would be there. Anyway, because of the competition, Shrek's room was arranged by the Star Luo Empire-funded hotel.
Then he and Xu Xingyu could squeeze in together; after all, they had done this kind of sleeping in the same bed many times before.
Moreover, it's quite normal for couples to do this kind of thing. If she's afraid of being discovered by others, she only needs to set up a barrier around the room and then hide when the other person opens the door.
Normally, Xu Xingyu wouldn't object to Gu Yuena's idea, since he also really enjoyed the time he spent with her.
Don't forget, he's not living alone anymore! Xu Xingyu is currently living with Jiang Nannan!
Living in a room with two girlfriends at the same time? That kind of thing only happens in novels!
