Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: The Little Calculation

Even some level 7 and 8 soul guides pale in comparison to it in some aspects.

Jiang Li knew very well that there was no similar soul guide in the entire Douluo Continent.

This unique design and powerful effect would surely attract everyone.

The fact was just as he expected, no soul master was willing to miss this rare opportunity.

"I wonder who will get the blueprint of this level 5 soul guide in the end?"

Jiang Li muttered to himself, with a strong curiosity in his heart.

His eyes moved back and forth in the direction of Shrek Academy and Mingde Hall. In his opinion, these two forces were most likely to become the final winners.

Shrek Academy, as the first academy in Douluo Continent, has a deep foundation and rich resources.

And Mingde Hall, relying on its advanced knowledge in soul guide research, will never give up easily.

Jiang Li sat quietly in the chair, ready to enjoy this wonderful competition.

As time passed slowly, this fierce competition gradually came to an end.

The atmosphere in the auction hall became more and more tense, as if the air was filled with a smell of gunpowder.

"26 million gold soul coins."

Xuan Lao's voice was firm and powerful, and he held the sign tightly in his hand.

After this shout, the whole audience fell silent instantly, and everyone was shocked by the high price.

Xiao Hongchen's face changed slightly, and his brows were furrowed.

He looked at his grandfather Jing Hongchen beside him, and his eyes revealed a hint of hesitation: "Grandpa, do you want to continue to raise the price?"

Obviously, he did not expect Shrek Academy to be so difficult to deal with, and kept fighting with them to the end.

The price of 26 million gold soul coins has far exceeded their psychological expectations.

After all, this price is too high, so they have to consider it carefully.

Jing Hongchen frowned slightly, and his eyes revealed a hint of worry.

He is very clear about the current situation. Although this soul guide is powerful, is it worth paying such a high price?

Thinking of the huge impact that this soul guide may eventually bring, he fell into deep hesitation again.

I don't know whether I should continue to follow.

No one knows whether Shrek Academy will continue to raise the price and fight with them to the end.

"Why don't we give this soul guide to Shrek Academy? Then we can buy some finished products directly and crack this level 5 soul guide through research. Isn't that a good idea?"

Meng Hongchen's eyes suddenly lit up. She smiled slightly, with a cunning look in her eyes. She approached Jing Hongchen and whispered.

Her idea can not only avoid further competition with Shrek Academy, but also get the blueprint of the soul guide for free, which can be said to kill two birds with one stone.

"This is a good idea."

Xiao Hongchen heard Meng Hongchen's words on the side. He immediately patted his thigh with a touch of admiration in his eyes.

He was very clear about Mingde Hall's strength in soul guide research.

Even if it was a level 9 soul guide, they were capable of making it.

Therefore, he believed that as long as they got the finished product, they would be able to copy the same soul guide with their rich research experience.

They could even develop a more powerful soul guide on this basis.

Jing Hongchen nodded slightly, and he also felt that this method was feasible.

"Well, if that's the case, let's give it to Shrek Academy."

His tone revealed a hint of relief. This was also a good solution.

He couldn't help but think of the scene where Shrek Academy spent a lot of gold soul coins to buy a soul guide, but they were able to easily copy it. A smile appeared unconsciously at the corner of his mouth.

He didn't believe that copying a mere level 5 soul guide would be more difficult than developing a level 9 soul guide.   

In fact, Jing Hongchen was not the only one who had such an idea.

Xu Tianran, the crown prince of the Sun Moon Empire, and Xu Jiawei of the Xing Luo Empire, all realized that the price of 26 million gold soul coins had exceeded their psychological value.

They all had the same idea, and planned to wait until they got the finished product in the future to copy the exact same soul guide.

"26 million gold soul coins once."

"26 million gold soul coins twice."

"26 million gold soul coins three times."

Ling Yun knocked the auction hammer in her hand. She looked around and confirmed that no one continued to bid, and finally announced.

"Is there anyone who continues to bid?"

"In that case, I declare that the third auction item, this fifth-level soul guide production drawing, was won by soul master No. 5 on the second floor."

As this sentence fell, Huo Yuhao's face immediately showed surprise.

His eyes flashed with excitement, and his heart was full of emotion.

Sure enough, hard work pays off.

Xuan Lao finally succeeded in getting this soul guide production drawing.

However, when he thought of the final transaction price, he couldn't help but sigh helplessly.

This price is really too high!

"Mr. Mu, I see that other forces gave up and gave this fifth-level soul guide blueprint to our Shrek Academy. I am afraid that they have the idea of getting something for nothing in the future."

Mr. Xuan frowned slightly, and his eyes revealed a trace of worry.

He looked at those forces that gave up the competition, and he had guessed their thoughts in his heart.

These forces must be planning to wait until the academy produces the finished product before trying to copy it.

He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed, after all, the academy spent so many gold soul coins to buy it.

If it is really copied easily by other forces, it will undoubtedly be a huge loss for the academy.

"It's okay, our Shrek Academy will enjoy the benefits brought by this soul guide first, and the follow-up situation will be discussed further."

Mr. Mu smiled and waved his hand, his tone was very relaxed.

In his opinion, the most important thing at present is to improve the overall strength of the academy. As for other problems, there will always be a solution.

"Next, the auction of the fourth auction item will be held. This auction item is a head soul bone with a spiritual attribute of 30,000 years."

Lingyun's voice sounded again, breaking the brief calm in the venue.

She waved her hand, and a white head soul bone slowly floated in the air.

"Boom!"

In an instant, a powerful spiritual force wave spread out, like a surging tide, sweeping the entire auction hall.

Everyone's eyes were attracted by this mysterious soul bone, as if being pulled by an invisible force.

Soul bones, for soul masters, have an indescribable attraction.

It is the essence left after the soul beast dies, and it contains powerful power.

Some soul masters have been searching for a soul bone throughout their lives, but they have never been able to get what they want.

And now, this 30,000-year-old head soul bone with spiritual attributes has appeared in front of everyone.

Its preciousness is self-evident.

What's more, soul bones with spiritual attributes are extremely rare.

On the Douluo Continent, there are only a handful of soul beasts with spiritual attributes.
