Douluo: Huo Yuhao Returns from Devouring the Stars

Looking at the set of fixed-type soul guide shells on the soul guide display screen, Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen's faces were as gloomy as water, and they couldn't help but clench their fists.

"Teacher Yu, take pictures of these soul guide cannons. I want to see who thinks he has lived too long!" Xiao Hongchen approached Yu Yu and whispered.

"That's what I meant!"

Chapter 83 -Year-Old Ice Scorpion Left Arm Bone

After buying the set of twelve fixed-type soul-guided artillery shells, Yu Yu thought that was the end of it, but he didn't expect that the third item would make him even more angry.

The third lot is a Creation Cannon that is very close to the ninth level. If used well, it can be comparable to the ninth level soul guide cannon!

Still from Mingde Hall!

Yu Yu turned his head and looked at Qingya, "Auctioneer Qingya, we will handle the next auction ourselves. We won't bother you."

Qingya looked at the anger on everyone's faces and said apologetically, "Then Qingya will withdraw first. If you need anything, please call me anytime."

After saying that, Qingya left the private room in a panic.

She knew why the Sun and Moon Royal Team was angry, but she was just a small staff member who just wanted to keep her job...

"What's going on? An eighth-level Overlord Soul Refining Sword, twelve fixed-type soul guide shells, and a nearly ninth-level Creation Cannon. They dare to sell such high-level soul guides. I think it's time to clean up Mingdetang. If I don't make those people's heads fall to the ground when I go back, I'll not be named Hongchen!" Xiao Hongchen stood up angrily and couldn't help but growl.

The rest of the people also had anger in their eyes, and they wished they could return to Sun and Moon immediately to report the news that high-level soul guides had flowed into the black market to the empire, so that those traitors would be beheaded!

After everyone had vented their anger, Yu Yu comforted them, saying, "When I return, I will report this to the dean and have Mingde Hall thoroughly investigated. You should calm down, too. Your mission now is to represent the empire and win the championship..."

"Problems are easy to solve if they arise. I'm afraid that if we hadn't come to this top auction today, we wouldn't have discovered the corrupt officials within the empire, which would have been a real headache. These soul guides were most likely created by spies from the Three Douluo Kingdoms who bribed or threatened the soul guides in Mingde Hall. We can solve them when we get back..."

Everyone nodded and sat on the sofa to continue watching the auction. Although the next few items were high-level soul guides, Yu Yu did not accept them all. Instead, he took a few symbolic high-level soul guides and took them back as evidence.

Soon, the eighth lot was auctioned off, and Xu Jiujiu's figure appeared on the soul guide display screen for the ninth time.

"The next lot will be the highlight of today. I believe that all of you will be very interested. This is especially rare and valuable, as there is no other like it on the entire continent. Interested guests should seize this opportunity and don't miss it. Please take a look at our ninth lot!"

With a flash of light and shadow, a soul bone magnified dozens of times appeared on the soul guide display screen!

This soul bone is emerald green all over, just like a clear emerald. If you look closely, you will find that its surface is like inlaid with very small emeralds, flowing with a charming emerald green halo, just like emerald green liquid slowly flowing.

Judging from the appearance, this is a left arm soul bone. There is a faint white mist floating around the emerald green soul bone, which looks very extraordinary.

"asshole!"

The Ice Emperor's angry voice suddenly rang out in Huo Yuhao's sea of ​​consciousness, startling Huo Yuhao who was carefully observing his soul bone.

"What happened?" Huo Yuhao asked hurriedly.

"This soul bone comes from a 70,000-year-old ice blue scorpion..." Xue Di said softly.

"I see."

No wonder Ice Queen was furious. It turned out this soul bone came from one of her people, and now it was being auctioned...

Huo Yuhao looked at the emerald green soul bone on the display screen again, and a hint of thought flashed in his eyes.

Could this soul bone be the one that gave Huo Gua the ice explosion skill in the original novel?

If I remember correctly, the original owner got that soul bone at the Starlight Auction during this competition...

Just as Huo Yuhao was trying hard to recall, Xu Jiujiu's voice rang out again.

"Dear guests, it is my great honor to introduce our ninth lot today. I believe you have already seen that it is a soul bone."

"As everyone knows, the most precious items for spirit masters are external spirit bones, hundred thousand year spirit rings, and hundred thousand year spirit bones. These three are almost impossible to appear at auction. Even in our top auctions at the Starlight Auction House, these three items have never appeared."

"This soul bone you see is the top soul bone sold at our Starlight Auction House in recent years."

Then, Xu Jiujiu gave a detailed introduction to the three shortcomings of this soul bone: it can only be absorbed by ice-attribute soul masters, the soul bone's soul skills have been solidified, and the soul bone's lifespan is only between 50,000 and 70,000 years.

She then went on to explain the advantages of the soul bone, which came from the royal Ice Scorpion clan of the Far North; how absorbing it could greatly improve one's physical fitness and ice attributes; and how absorbing it could give one the magical fixed soul skill of Ice Explosion.

The so-called ice explosion is to make the ice explode like a cannonball. Normally, as long as there is ice, an ice explosion can be achieved. The more ice there is and the higher the quality, the greater the power of the explosion!

If ice is injected into the soul master's body and then the ice explosion is used, the effect will definitely be much more terrifying than the corpse explosion of the epic soul king Death Messenger who powerfully killed the four main players of Shrek.

The advantage of corpse explosion is that as long as there is a corpse, it can be detonated directly, but if there is no corpse, it will be useless. If this soul skill is used in war, the effect is still considerable.

As for Ice Explosion, whether it's a corpse or a living being, as long as ice is injected into its body, it can be caused to explode. Even if there is no ice injected, it can be covered with ice around it and then Ice Explosion is used. If hail can be rained down from the sky during war and then Ice Explosion is used, this soul skill alone can directly overturn the battlefield!

Overall, Ice Explosion is definitely stronger than Corpse Explosion.

If used properly, it can often have the effect of turning decay into something miraculous.

The soul skill of Ice Explosion is only possessed by the royal family of the Ice Scorpion clan with a very small probability. Even the strongest member of the Ice Scorpion clan, Ice Emperor, does not have this soul skill in his innate soul skills. If Ice Emperor possesses the soul skill of Ice Explosion, she will definitely be invincible in the ice-covered far north!

In other words, as long as the Ice Empress has the soul skill of Ice Explosion, she will be the leader of the three kings in the Far North instead of the Snow Empress. With this soul skill, she can even fight against the most ferocious beast in the continent, Emperor Tian, ​​in the Far North!

So when the Ice Emperor heard Xu Jiujiu say that the solidification skill of this soul bone was Ice Explosion, the Ice Emperor seriously ordered Huo Yuhao to obtain this 70,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion left arm bone!

The soul bone that the Snow Empress had previously bestowed upon Huo Yuhao was the soul bone of his right arm, and this 70,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone was just the right size for his left hand to absorb.

"Yuhao, although most of what Princess Xu Jiujiu said was correct, there was one crucial piece of information that she got wrong."

"This soul bone cannot enhance the ice attribute of the absorber, and this soul bone can only be absorbed by soul masters with the ultimate ice martial soul. In other words, basically no one except you can absorb it."

After saying this, Bingdi added in the tone of a love strategist, "When the time comes, you can let Meng Hongchen try it first, so as to avoid any estrangement between you two..."

"Ahem, let's talk about this after we get the soul bone. The key point is that this soul bone can only be absorbed by the owner of the Ultimate Ice Martial Soul. The restriction is too high. This is a fatal flaw. From this point of view alone, this soul bone should not appear in the top auction house."

Huo Yuhao coughed dryly twice and continued, "You can't really ask us to spend hundreds of millions of gold soul coins to auction this soul bone, right?"

Chapter 84 Her Royal Highness the Princess

Meng Hongchen glanced at Huo Yuhao and thought to himself that if Yuhao had this soul bone, he would be even more powerful and become the most shining genius in the world!

So, without a second thought, she looked at Yu Yu and said solemnly, "Teacher Yu, this 70,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion left arm bone is extremely rare. Buy it and let the academy pay for it first. I'll ask Grandpa to make up for it when I get back."

"Of course, we must get this soul bone no matter what!" Yu Yu said firmly.

Yu Hao and Meng Hongchen both have ice-attributed martial souls, and Yu Hao's martial soul is the Ice Jade Scorpion martial soul. This left arm bone produced from the Ice Jade Scorpion soul beast is extremely compatible with him. No matter how much it costs, he will try his best to obtain this soul bone!

Xiao Hongchen, who was standing next to him, glanced at Meng Hongchen, then glanced at Huo Yuhao, snorted, and continued to lean on the sofa and eat fruit.

"Wait, Teacher Yu."

Just when Yu Yu was estimating how many gold soul coins were needed to obtain this soul bone, Huo Yuhao suddenly walked up to his ear and whispered.

"What's wrong?" Yu Yu looked at Huo Yuhao and asked in confusion.

"Teacher Yu, this soul bone has a fatal problem. Maybe we don't need to spend so much money to buy it!" Huo Yuhao continued to speak softly in a voice that only the two of them could hear.

"Is there something wrong with this soul bone?"

Yu Yu was shocked. This was an item that was auctioned at the top auction by the Starlight Auction House, which was backed by the Xingluo Empire. How could there be a problem?

Yu Yu glanced at the others and found that no one was paying attention to their conversation, so he moved closer to Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao said softly, “Not only will this soul bone fail to enhance the ice attribute of an ice attribute soul master’s martial spirit, it will actually harm ordinary ice attribute soul masters, because this soul bone can only be absorbed by the owner of an ultimate ice martial spirit!”

"really?!"

"Teacher Yu, my martial soul is the Ice Jade Scorpion, so I know the Ice Jade Scorpion soul beast very well and will definitely not joke about such things. Believe me, this soul bone really has this fatal flaw." Huo Yuhao said with certainty.

Yu Yu nodded and rang the customer service bell on the door. Qingya Auction House, who had just left, quickly returned to the private room.

"I'm very happy to serve you all again." Qingya smiled slightly and said gently to Yu Yu and Huo Yuhao.

The other members of the team looked at Yu Yu and Huo Yuhao in confusion, thinking that they were asking about the 70,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone, so they turned back and continued to admire the 70,000-year-old soul bone on the soul guide display screen.

Meng Hongchen, who was planning to take a picture of this soul bone for Huo Yuhao, was also curious, so he walked up to the three people and asked in confusion, "Yuhao, what happened?"

Yu Yu turned around and glanced at the people in the private room, and said softly, "Let's talk outside."

So, under Qingya's leadership, the four of them came to an empty room.

"Dear guests, do you have any questions?" Qingya asked with a smile.

Huo Yuhao said in a deep voice, "Can you please suspend this auction? This Ice Jade Scorpion Left Arm Bone you're auctioning has a fatal flaw!"

Qingya frowned slightly and said, "Dear guest, this is impossible. We at the Starlight Auction House have rigorously inspected every item, especially the 70,000-year-old Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone that's currently being auctioned. We've put a lot of effort into inspecting and testing it, so there's absolutely no problem."

"You conduct numerous inspections and tests on the items because you don't know them well enough. So is it possible that there are some problems that you can't discover even with your inspections and tests?"

Huo Yuhao continued, "Especially with auction items like spirit bones, many problems can only be discovered when they are actually fused. What I want to ask is, when you were inspecting and testing this spirit bone, did you have an ice-attribute spirit master attempt to fuse it?"

Qingya looked at Huo Yuhao in surprise, "Let an ice-attribute spirit master try to fuse?"

Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "That's right. If you do this, you will find that the fatal problem with this Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone is that it can only be absorbed and fused by a soul master with an ultimate ice martial spirit. Ordinary ice-attribute soul masters simply cannot absorb and fuse this soul bone. On the contrary, if a fusion is forced, it will have disastrous consequences!"

"Furthermore, this soul bone does not have the function of increasing the ice attribute of the spirit master who absorbs it."

Huo Yuhao paused and continued, "If your auction house sells this soul bone at a sky-high price, and these problems arise, it will definitely be a significant blow to your auction house's reputation."

"This..." Qingya frowned and looked at Yu Yu as if asking for help.

"Don't worry, Auctioneer Qingya, trust the judgment of my student. We will bear any problems that arise. You just need to ask the people above. We have been talking for so long and it has taken up a lot of time. If the auction of this soul bone is officially started and then stopped, the impact will probably not be very good." Yu Yu said with a faint smile.

Qingya hesitated for a moment and said, "Okay, distinguished guests, please wait a moment. I'll ask for instructions from above."

After saying that, Qingya hurried out of the room.

"Does that soul bone really have this problem, Yuhao?" Meng Hongchen asked curiously.

"Yes, my martial soul is the Ice Jade Scorpion. I naturally know about the soul bones produced by the Ice Jade Scorpion." Huo Yuhao nodded and smiled faintly.

"Then can we get this soul bone at a very low price?" Meng Hongchen was so happy that he almost jumped up.

She had originally planned to use family funds to buy this soul bone for Yuhao, but now it seems that family funds will not be needed.

She might be able to take the picture with just her own pocket money!

Huo Yuhao made a gesture to silence Meng Hongchen, indicating that he should not say anything for the time being.

Meng Hongchen nodded obediently, his ice-blue eyes filled with excitement.

After a while, Qingya came back, and with her came the Xingluo royal princess who hosted the auction, Her Royal Highness Xu Jiujiu.

Looking closely at the princess, even Huo Yuhao, who often admired Meng Hongchen's angelic beauty, felt that Xu Jiujiu's appearance was extremely stunning. Her nearly perfect face gave him a feeling that it was not real.

The moment Xu Jiujiu and Meng Hongchen saw each other, they were both shocked and stunned by each other's peerless beauty.

The two smiled and nodded at each other, then after a long while they walked up to the three people, bowed slightly, and immediately asked anxiously, "Which distinguished guest pointed out the problem with our Ice Jade Scorpion's left arm bone?"

Huo Yuhao nodded and said, "It's me."
