Chapter 543: Peacock Feather (Please Subscribe)_1

Xu Sanshi propped up his chin, "Qian Yu, Wu Tong, Nannan, what do you think is inside that box on the stage?"

Tang Wutong pondered, "It should be a soul tool, right? It's unlikely that they would auction off a soul bone."

Jiang Nannan pressed her thin lips together, "I also think it's a soul tool, and it must be a high-grade one at that; otherwise, it wouldn't be auctioned in the third round."

Seeing that both of their thoughts were roughly the same as his own, Xu Sanshi's gaze turned to Qian Yu, who had remained silent, "Qian Yu, what do you think?"

Qian Yu merely glanced at him and then continued to watch the auction stage, "What's the use of asking so much? We still have to wait for the auctioneer to introduce it."

Rendered speechless by the retort, Xu Sanshi "..."

Grumbled to himself, "Qian Yu really doesn't have a sense of humor at all!"

The auctioneer on the stage saw that all the bidders were wildly speculating and smiled, "It seems everyone has different guesses! Well then, let me reveal today's third auction item to you all!"

With that said, he quickly opened the small square box on the display table, revealing its true content...

Then, he carefully held a delicately made weapon in his hands and spoke to the audience below, "This auction item is unlike those before, it is a weapon crafted to perfection!"

"Even as an auction house, we have not been able to find any information about it, but one thing is certain, it's a powerful area-of-effect weapon that can even pose a threat to Soul Emperors and Soul Sages."

As soon as these words came out, the bidders below started complaining...

"Cut the crap, what kind of thing is that? You dare to auction it off without even understanding what it is! Do you take us for fools?"

"Exactly, that's not how you scam money! With that money, wouldn't we be better off getting a soul tool? Why bother with this junk?"

"Stop kidding us! Threatening Soul Sages and Soul Emperors? Just look at it, it's made of the most common materials. If it's so deadly, go ahead, hit me on the head with it. If I die, I'll take your surname!"

"Whoever buys it is a fool! This thing is meant for the ignorant rich dupes!"

The auctioneer wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and thought, "I didn't expect such strong opposition. Could this item actually go unsold?"

Upon seeing the weapon, Jiang Nannan exclaimed, "That's... a Peacock Plume!"

Xu Sanshi asked curiously, "A Peacock Plume? What is that?"

Tang Wutong's Beautiful Eyes flickered with a glint, thinking to herself, "I feel like I've heard of it somewhere..."

Qian Yu's gaze remained fixed on the weapon but he had no clue about it; he had never seen such a thing before...

Jiang Nannan explained, "The Peacock Plume, it's one of the top-ranked hidden weapons from Tang Sect! It's extremely lethal indeed capable of posing a threat to Soul Emperors and Soul Sages, and I just read about it in Sister Tang Ya's hidden weapon materials a few days ago!"

Xu Sanshi marveled, "So that thing is a hidden weapon from Tang Sect? But how did it end up here? Wasn't the previous Tang Sect already destroyed?"

Tang Wutong analyzed seriously, "It's quite possible that the hidden weapons flowed into the market after the fall of Tang Sect..."

Qian Yu said nonchalantly, "Then let's bid on this item for Sister Tang Ya."

Tang Wutong and the others were taken aback, "Eh??"

Qian Yu smiled, "Don't worry, it won't cost many golden soul coins. Since most of the bidders aren't interested, the price will definitely be very low. Besides, if Tang Sect wants to combine hidden weapons with soul tools, we can't just rely on theory."

As soon as his words ended, the auctioneer on the stage said, "The starting bid for the third auction item is ten thousand golden soul coins, with each bid increment not less than one thousand!"

The next moment, the entire venue fell silent, as if one could clearly hear a pin drop on the floor...

After a few seconds, a bidder with a covered cheek spoke, "I bid ten thousand golden soul coins!"

Without a doubt, the bidder was indeed a plant by the auction house...

After he spoke, the venue remained eerily silent...

The auctioneer, steeling himself, said, "Ten thousand golden soul coins for the first time! Don't judge this item by its appearance; it actually contains immense power."

The bidders below just looked at the auctioneer, with no one calling out a bid...

The auctioneer, gritting his teeth, said again, "Ten thousand golden soul coins for the second time. If no one bids now, it will be gone! This is a weapon capable of contending with a Soul Emperor and a Soul Sage!"

Still, the silence was deafening, leaving the auctioneer with a growing sense of despair...

It seemed this auction item was going to be passed in...

Suddenly, a voice rang out...

"Eleven thousand golden soul coins!"

Without a doubt, the speaker was none other than Qian Yu!

Tears of excitement were shed by the auctioneer, who looked at Qian Yu with gratitude and said, "Oh! Is it him? That angel!"

Making an extra thousand golden soul coins is still a profit, better than not selling at all!

Immediately, he quickly announced, "Eleven thousand golden soul coins for the first time! Eleven thousand golden soul coins for the second time, eleven thousand golden soul coins for the third time! Sold!"

"Let us congratulate this guest on obtaining the auction item of this event!"

Following that, the beautiful woman standing to the side walked to the display case, carefully picked it up, and headed toward the auction stage...

It wasn't long before the hidden weapon of the Tang Sect, the Peacock Feather, was in Qian Yu's hands...

Since there were no low-level soul tools available, Qian Yu chose to craft a Fourth-Level Soul Guidance Device right there on the spot!

The stunned beauty holding the very real soul tool muttered incredulously, "Fake... It's fake, right? Crafted on the spot? Is this guest actually that skilled?"

After revealing this skill, he astonished all the surrounding bidders...

"Oh my God, did you just see that? The man sitting in the front just crafted a soul tool on the spot! Is he a Soul Master?"

"Really, and it only took him a few seconds to carve the core magic array, from crafting to installation it took less than a minute! This young man is terrifying!"

"Pfft, it's just making a soul tool single-handedly. All I can say is, if you've got a hand, it will do—nannies can spoon-feed you!"

"So impressive! If he were to craft with both hands, it would probably be even faster!"

Tang Wutong smiled gently and said, "Qian Yu, with that move, you've really shocked everyone!"

Jiang Nannan's beautiful eyes turned to the auctioneer on the stage who was being ignored, "But the auctioneer's face is turning dark! It's his stage, yet he's been completely overshadowed by Qian Yu!"

Xu Sanshi, on the other hand, folded his arms and lazily commented, "Didn't Qian Yu just help him out with an item that was about to pass in? I think he should be grateful."

Qian Yu, seeing the beautiful woman still standing there in a daze, asked in confusion, "Isn't a Fourth-Level Soul Guidance Device enough?"

The beauty, now snapping out of her reverie and looking at Qian Yu's handsome face, blushed and said softly, "Sir, it's enough."

With those words, she left as if in a dream, cradling the Fourth-Level Soul Guidance Device...
