Chapter 134: External Spirit Bone Auction, Tang Hao Returns
The one-on-one challenge with Yan ended with his spectacular ten consecutive losses.
Since Su Yun broke through to the 40th level of soul power, his strength could be said to be the first among the young generation of the Spirit Hall.
In the year and a half following that, when Su Yun turned twelve, under the guidance of the system and Ah Yin, his cultivation speed of soul power did not decrease at all. On the day of his official graduation, he had successfully stepped into the 47th level of soul power!
In terms of soul power level, only Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and Yan were slightly ahead of him, but his combat power was unquestionable.
According to Su Yun's plan, it would take at most one year for him to break through to the 50th level of soul power and become a Soul King.
Besides the strong advancement in soul power level, Su Yun's Blazing Spear Technique's 'Fifty Forms', 'Thirty Strikes', and 'Twenty Needles' had also reached the stage of perfection.
Dugu Yan, by Su Yun's side, had her soul power break through to the 38th level after being regularly detoxified by him.
Zhu Zhuqing also managed to break through to the 34th level of soul power with the help of the medicinal herbs from the Spirit Hall provided by Su Yun.
"After the graduation ceremony of the junior soul master academy, Judo Luo hurriedly came to Su Yun, bringing the good news, 'We have decided to auction the external spirit bone you brought back at the auction house of the Heaven Dou Empire.'"
Only the capitals of the two great empires have the highest standard auction houses.
Judo Luo, with a cunning smile on his face, said, "Before this auction, we have secretly spread the word for half a year, just waiting for those big fishes to bite."
The value of the external spirit bone is extremely high, after all, it ranks second on the dream list of soul masters, desired by all independent soul masters, families, and sects!
Seeing Judo Luo's appearance, Su Yun was sure that the former planned to heavily profit from those people.
After all, in the original story, aside from the protagonist Tang San, only Bibi Dong and Hu Liena possessed external spirit bones!
Now that Su Yun and the others have graduated, it's a good time to relax.
Moreover, besides accompanying Dugu Yan to visit her grandfather Dugu Bo, Su Yun could also check on Ah Yin's original body's growth situation.
The next day, they set off for the Heaven Dou Empire in a carriage.
...
Shrek Academy.
In the year and a half at the Blue Tyrant Academy, Tang San and Dai Mubai, the four boys originally from Shrek Academy, defeated the geniuses of the academy with their talents, obtaining the top resources within the Blue Tyrant Academy.
With the relationships of Yu Xiaogang and Liu Erlong, Tang San and others' soul power cultivation speed was also very fast.
Dai Mubai's soul power reached the 39th level.
Tang San was at the 32nd level.
Ma Hongjun's soul power was at the 31st level.
Oscar, though inherently full of soul power because of his food-type martial soul, had a slower cultivation speed, only reaching the 29th level.
Tang San was quite satisfied with the improvement of his soul power. If he had continued to cultivate in the original Shrek Academy, it would definitely not have been so easy to break through the 30th level of soul power before the age of twelve.
"Su Yun has now joined the Spirit Hall, his martial soul is superior to mine. Although we are both inherently full of soul power, I possess the highest internal method, the Xuantian Gong. In terms of soul power level, even if he is one or two levels higher than me, he will not be my opponent in a real fight."
Tang San, looking at the Blue Silver Grass in his hand, suddenly felt a bit conflicted.
During his initial battle with Su Yun, because of the martial soul quality, he couldn't even display his real strength, ending up in a defeat that made him and his teacher lose all face.
"If in my final battle with Su Yun, I am suppressed by his Blue Silver Emperor, resulting in losing the match, won't I be suppressed by him for life?" Tang San's expression became stern, and he clenched his left hand, where he held his second martial soul, the Clear Sky Hammer.
Perhaps, by switching to cultivating the Clear Sky Hammer, I still have a chance?
Tang San's gaze flickered, uncertain of how to broach the subject with his teacher.
Just then, a familiar voice pulled him out of his thoughts.
"Tang San, the teacher is calling you over, saying there's an urgent matter." Tang San looked up to see that it was Dai Mubai who had come to call him.
He did not dare to delay and immediately followed Dai Mubai to Teacher Yu Xiaogang's room.
In the year and a half at Blue Tyrant Academy, Tang San and Dai Mubai could feel their teacher becoming increasingly thinner.
Although they were technically children,
One was an expert in the field of love, having dated countless women.
The other came from another world, also with the experience of a man in his thirties.
How could they not understand Yu Xiaogang's "experiences" over the past year and a half?
Now, Liu Erlong, nominally the dean, had handed most of the affairs over to Flender.
She was focused on spending time with Yu Xiaogang, as if making up for the past decade of missed affection!
Therefore, whenever they saw Yu Xiaogang walking out of the room, one hand on his waist and the other supporting himself against the wall, Tang San and Dai Mubai could only pretend as if they saw nothing.
However, they sometimes heard Yu Xiaogang complaining to the dean about how "the eagle eats the chick", saying things like "she's too fierce, I can't handle it", which led to Flender scolding him for not understanding the hunger of those who have less.
In the room.
Liu Erlong, with a blissfully flushed face, was holding Yu Xiaogang's arm, while Yu Xiaogang, with dark circles under his eyes, looked towards Tang San and Dai Mubai with a forced smile, appreciating the soul power aura emanating from them. He nodded approvingly and said, "Xiao San, Mubai, you two have done well, not letting me and your Mistress down."
Liu Erlong was also very satisfied with the improvement in Tang San and Dai Mubai's soul power, modestly saying, "It's all thanks to your teacher's guidance. I've only provided a bit of environmental and material assistance."
Despite saying so, the value of the medicinal herbs Liu Erlong provided to Tang San and others was clear to them, showing her affection for them.
Tang San nodded slightly towards Liu Erlong, then turned to his teacher, Yu Xiaogang, asking, "Teacher, you had Mubai call me over, saying there's an urgent matter. What exactly happened?"
Yu Xiaogang smiled slightly and gestured towards Liu Erlong, saying, "Let your Mistress tell you."
Tang San's gaze returned to Liu Erlong, who, noticing his look, began, "Xiao San, do you know about the auction house in Heaven Dou Imperial City?"
"Yes, teacher once mentioned it to me." Tang San nodded, remembering his teacher telling him to save money for when he grew up, so he could buy what he needed at the auction house, though the teacher did not specify what those things were.
Liu Erlong continued, "This time, I've received news that a treasure has appeared at the auction house in our Heaven Dou Empire!"
"Not only has it attracted the attention of many forces within our Heaven Dou Empire," Liu Erlong said, looking towards Dai Mubai, "but even the forces from your Star Luo Empire have taken notice of that treasure."
Dai Mubai was somewhat surprised upon hearing Mistress Liu Erlong's words. It is known that both the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire have the highest standard auction houses in their capitals. The items auctioned in both places are mostly similar.
From what he remembered from his childhood, apart from some special hobbies among the nobility, such as female slaves, the treasures available on both sides were more or less on par. In other words, both sides tended to believe that the items auctioned by the other were not as good as their own.
However, this time, even people from the Star Luo Empire's auction house had taken notice of the item here. What kind of treasure could it be? Dai Mubai wondered.
Seeing the puzzled expressions on Tang San and Dai Mubai's faces, Yu Xiaogang laughed lightly and said, "Alright, Erlong, there's no need to be mysterious with these two kids. Tell them the news."
Liu Erlong nodded and then said, "I've learned that there will be a soul bone for sale at the auction house in Heaven Dou Imperial City."
Hisss—
Soul bone!
Tang San and Dai Mubai sharply inhaled a breath of cold air! They looked at each other, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes!
As disciples of Yu Xiaogang, how could they not know the preciousness and power of a soul bone! The absorption of soul rings is limited by the level of soul power and physical condition. But not for soul bones! Moreover, the enhancement soul rings provide to soul masters is mostly manifested in soul skills, but soul bones provide an almost comprehensive enhancement to soul masters.
In simple terms, a soul bone can be said to strengthen a soul master's foundational attributes. The stronger the soul master becomes, the more significant the enhancement they receive!
"Teacher, although it's a soul bone, to attract the attention of so many forces, it must not be a simple soul bone, right?" Dai Mubai suddenly spoke up.
Soul bones are naturally extremely precious, but to attract the attention of so many forces between two great empires, Dai Mubai felt that the value of this soul bone must at least be over ten thousand years!
"Correct."
Yu Xiaogang nodded and said, "To tell you the truth, Erlong has her sources and has already learned that the soul bone consigned at the Heaven Dou auction house this time is an external spirit bone!"
External spirit bone!!!
Dai Mubai and Tang San were struck as if by lightning!
How is that possible?! An external spirit bone?!
The preciousness of an external spirit bone far exceeds that of ordinary soul bones! An external spirit bone can compete with the top soul bones! The age of ordinary soul bones is fixed, while an external spirit bone can improve as the soul master's strength increases.
It's most suitable for geniuses within family forces to absorb, as there are no level restrictions for absorbing soul bones. Moreover, an external spirit bone is a special existence independent of the six categories of soul bones, with the probability of bursting from a soul beast being less than one in ten thousand!
It's almost what all soul masters desire the most, besides a hundred thousand-year soul ring! Yu Xiaogang added, "Moreover, according to our information, this external spirit bone was obtained from a Man-Faced Demon Spider!"
Upon hearing this, Tang San's eyes immediately turned red! Because his third soul ring came from a Man-Faced Demon Spider.
The absorption of a soul bone is naturally most effective for the same type of martial soul or soul ring. An external spirit bone from a Man-Faced Demon Spider is naturally most suitable for spider-type martial souls, followed by soul masters who have soul rings from spider-type soul beasts.
Yu Xiaogang looked at Tang San and smiled, "Xiao San, do you remember the attribute we added to your Blue Silver Grass?"
Tang San nodded. He certainly remembered. Poison! This was his proudest asset. In the entire Douluo Continent, he considered his poison to be unrivaled! Even the legendary Poison Douluo in Heaven Dou City, elusive as a dragon, was probably not his match.
The poison of a Man-Faced Demon Spider soul bone was perfectly suited for him! Upon hearing Yu Xiaogang's words, Dai Mubai immediately understood, "Teacher, are you saying you want to help Xiao San obtain this soul bone?"
"Correct." Yu Xiaogang nodded. "The external spirit bone is rare and precious, especially suitable for Xiao San. If Xiao San can integrate the enhancement from the Man-Faced Demon Spider soul ring with the poison from the soul bone of the same origin, his improvement will be tremendous!"
Hearing this, Dai Mubai couldn't help feeling a bit sour inside. After all, such a precious thing as an external spirit bone, he also wanted to possess.
Seeing Dai Mubai's displeased expression, Tang San didn't know how to comfort him. After all, the teacher called him here and made his intentions very clear to both of them. That was to help him obtain that soul bone.
And Dai Mubai, had received nothing. Having been with Dai Mubai for a long time, he knew him to be a generous person. This "differential treatment" by the teacher would indeed make him feel uncomfortable if he were Dai Mubai.
Seeing Dai Mubai's somewhat wrong expression, showing a bit of disappointment, Yu Xiaogang smiled and said, "Mubai, you don't need to be discouraged. Although this soul bone is not suitable for you, I also have
good news for you."
Good news? Dai Mubai's expression changed again, wondering what good news there could be if even a soul bone was not his share.
Tang San was also unclear about what the good news the teacher mentioned was. Yu Xiaogang smiled mysteriously and looked at Tang San, "This time, your father Tang Hao will also come."
Boom! Tang San and Dai Mubai were shocked again! Tang San's pupils rapidly constricted: "Dad is coming!"
Dai Mubai was even more excited: his idol, Hao Tian Douluo Tang Hao, who once killed the previous Pope of the Spirit Hall, was coming here!
"This auction, although the Hao Tian Sect has been hidden for many years, it does not lack outside intelligence. After receiving the news, your father, as the brother of the Sect Master of Hao Tian Sect, naturally has to come here."
"I will explain everything to him and strive for this external spirit bone for you."
"Mubai, at that time, I will also introduce you to Xiao San's father, Hao Tian Douluo. Whether you can gain his approval will depend on your abilities."
