Douluo Continent II: Senior Sister, Please Help Me Cultivate

Chapter 174 Princess Vina

While Ning Tian was making his offer, two beautiful women were sitting on a sofa in another private room.

One of them looked to be about fifteen or sixteen years old, with a cool and aloof appearance and a tall figure. His long legs, which were resting on the sofa armrests, were particularly eye-catching.

Her long black hair was neatly combed into a ponytail, and she wore a white outfit, giving her a heroic and dashing look.

The woman said speechlessly, "What's wrong with this person? You can't just spend money like that. Who doubles the price like that? Don't you think so, Vina?"

"Alright, Sister Muxue, it's fine for others to spend their money however they want, and the person who made the offer isn't just spending it recklessly."

It's just that the auction item was raised to the maximum price. This level 4 soul tool, the milk bottle, is only worth 20,000 gold soul coins. Any more than that and it's not worth it.

"Moreover, doubling the price has a greater impact, preventing a step-by-step bidding war that would further drive up the price," Vina replied with a smile.

Vina was extremely beautiful, with long black hair cascading down her back. She looked very delicate, with watery eyes that made her appear to be about fifteen or sixteen years old.

It was the age when the girl was most youthful and vibrant; the slightly oversized, pale yellow outfit hugged her beautiful figure.

Upon hearing Vina's words, Mu Xue hugged Vina's delicate body tightly, playfully touching her and saying, "As expected of royalty. Their thoughts are so different from those of us ordinary soul masters."

Vina laughed, "No way~ Sister Muxue, don't touch me like that."

……

Ning Tian's offer immediately silenced the entire room once again.

At this moment, the guests in the auction hall groaned in despair, "With this mysterious VIP here, all the good stuff has been sold out. We didn't get anything good at all. We're really fed up!"

"Exactly, exactly, how come these VIPs are trying to steal things from us nobody? What bad luck today."

……

Seeing that no one was bidding, Qingya quickly said, "20,000 gold soul coins once, 20,000 gold soul coins twice, 20,000 gold soul coins three times, sold!"

As the penultimate item was sold, Qingya's face flushed slightly.

As an auctioneer, she receives a commission of one-thousandth. Therefore, Qingya is naturally overjoyed as long as she can sell the auction items at a high price.

Qingya said excitedly, "The item to be auctioned next will be the grand finale of tonight's auction. This item shouldn't have appeared in a Level 4 auction; it should have been in a higher-level auction."

However, to thank everyone for their support of the Starlight Auction House, this item has been specially relegated to the Level 4 auction. Now, please have our hostess bring up this mysterious gift.

Soon, the main item was pushed from a small cart to the center of the stage by the hostesses.

Inside the private room, Chen Feng looked at the large scroll and a smile appeared on his lips.

The Soul-Devouring Carving Blade is Chen Feng's purpose for this trip. The Soul-Devouring Carving Blade itself is made of living metal.

Whoever can harness that immense life force will be reborn; under its influence, death will be nearly impossible.

Such a treasure, if given the chance to obtain it, Chen Feng would naturally do everything in his power.

Just as Chen Feng was rubbing his hands together, ready to bid on the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, the elegant auctioneer on the auction stage began her introduction.

"This mysterious gift is something every Soul Master dreams of. With its value and rarity, it's more than enough to be featured in our Starlight Auction House's top-tier auctions."

After Qingya finished speaking, she lifted the tarpaulin covering the cart. The moment the tarpaulin was lifted, everyone's attention was drawn to it.

This lot is a delicate and small carving knife, about half a foot long and only as thick as a finger. It gradually narrows from bottom to top, with a very sharp point at the very top.

Below that is a sharp blade about half an inch wide. The whole piece is simple and dark, with faint patterns engraved on it, exuding a faint, ancient and rustic aura, yet also somewhat melancholic.

The engraving knife is a tool used by Soul Masters to inscribe core magic arrays. At this moment, many ordinary guests below the stage looked at the utterly ordinary engraving knife with dissatisfaction, some even muttering complaints. Clearly, they were unhappy that the much-hyped item was actually such a common piece of junk.

Seeing a bunch of bumpkins chattering away in the auction hall, Qingya spoke up and explained, "Gentlemen, listen to me. This carving knife is no ordinary carving knife; it's a list carving knife."

"The carving knife ranking in Douluo Continent only records the top 100 carving knives, and more than two-thirds of them are in the Sun Moon Empire."

What you see before you is one of those top 100 engraving knives, the one I just mentioned.

The moment the words "listing engraving knife" were mentioned, the audience erupted in uproar.

They exclaimed in disbelief, "How could such a good item appear at a mere fourth-level auction? Could it be fake?"

Qingya watched the lively atmosphere in the auction hall, a smile playing on her lips. She patiently waited for the crowd below to discuss the event.

After the audience paused for a moment, some even impatiently asked, "Why hasn't the auction started yet?"

At this point, Qingya smiled and said, "Everyone, this engraving knife is genuine and of the highest quality, but it has a minor problem. Please let me finish speaking before we begin the auction."

"This carving knife is called the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, and it is a cursed carving knife. It ranks 99th among the listed carving knives. Given the power of this knife, it should not be ranked so low; it could even be in the top 30."

Then Qingya began to narrate the story of the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife and its first owner, the powerful evil soul master.

After Qingya finished speaking, everyone present changed their expressions drastically, fearing that if they bought the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, they would be devoured and killed by its own power.

Seeing the auction hall fall silent, Qingya quickly smiled and said, "If a Soul Master with the Light attribute were to buy this Soul Devouring Carving Knife, I think they could avoid its backlash."

However, we don't know much about this Soul-Devouring Carving Knife, so please purchase with caution. Of course, keeping it as a collectible is also a great option.

………………

After Qingya finished her awkward explanation, the auction hall remained silent, since buying a useless Soul-Devouring Carving Knife was clearly a waste of money.

Moreover, there aren't many wealthy people at a Level 4 auction, so naturally they wouldn't waste a lot of money buying the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife as a collectible.

Qingya looked at the many guests below the stage who had all fallen silent. She smiled awkwardly and said, "The Soul-Devouring Carving Knife has a starting price of 100,000 gold soul coins, with each bid increasing by at least 5,000 gold soul coins. Distinguished guests, you may begin the bidding."

Just when Qingya thought that the Soul-Devouring Carving Knife was going to fail to sell again.

Inside the private room, Chen Feng said to the girl in the long gold dress beside him, "I'll bid 100,000 gold soul coins for this Soul Devouring Carving Knife."

Just as the girl in the gold dress was about to press the price indicator.

Ning Tian advised, "Chen Feng, this carving knife can turn against its owner; it's too dangerous."

At this moment, the girl in the gold dress looked at Chen Feng, clearly asking him whether he wanted to buy it or not.

Just as Chen Feng was asking the girl in the gold dress for a price.

A top-tier VIP in another private room made a bid.

In another private room, within the spiritual sea of ​​Princess Vina of the Heavenly Soul Empire.

A gray bead exclaimed in surprise, "This is actually the Gold of Life!! Vina! We must obtain this carving knife at all costs!"

This was the first time Vina had ever heard her mysterious teacher from her spiritual sea speak to her in such a tone. Without hesitation, Vina immediately completed the quotation.
