Douluo: The Peerless Sun, Moon, and Yuhao

Chapter 88 Since I Can't Pay Off

On the screen of the soul guide, Jiu Jiujiu continued to introduce the three major advantages of this ice jade scorpion soul bone to everyone with a proud face.

Improve the purity of the ice attribute of the soul master, greatly enhance the strength of the left arm, and solidify the ice burst soul skill.

Meng Hongchen wished he could grab Yu Yu's collar, pointed at the soul screen and said, "Buy it, buy it!"

Even if you only look at the first item, isn’t it much better than the Bingmingtong Xueguan, which only works for 2-4 years, and you have to take it out and wear it when you use it?

In order to prepare for this competition, it cost 450 million yuan to buy the Bingmingtong snow crown. It is reasonable to prepare at least 500 million yuan for this soul bone, right?
As long as Meng Hongchen cultivated to the Title Douluo normally, he would have a lifespan of 200 years. In [-] years, it has increased a hundred times compared to two years, but the price has only increased ten times. Isn't this equivalent to earning ten times?

Although the Ice Bright Snow Crown can transform ice and snow, this feature is of little use to her.

The age of the soul bone is 7 to 55 years. With Meng Hongchen's current physical fitness, it may be a little stressful to fuse and need to be cultivated after fusion, but it will be absolutely fine when she is around level [-]!

Improving the strength of her left arm is not necessary for her, but Meng Hongchen's eyes lit up when she heard the Ice Burst Soul Technique introduced by Jiu Jiujiu, making Xiao Hongchen quietly sit a little further away.

Meng Hongchen has never seen the horror of corpse explosion, but the power of ice blast can be fully understood only by imagination.

"Teacher Yu, I really need this, please! I'll let grandpa make it up for how much it costs when I go back home!"

"Didn't we bring [-] million this trip? Even if we took this soul bone, the remaining money should be enough to compete for the last so-called treasure! Teacher Yu, as you said, the golden soul coin is worth holding in your hand." Can't lay eggs!"

On the surface, Meng Hongchen was the only one among the fourteen students who was suitable for this spirit bone, so there was no need to argue about the ownership of the spirit bone.

The news that Huo Yuhao possesses the second Martial Soul of Ultimate Ice, the insiders in the Sun Moon Royal Soul Engineering Academy are still limited to Yu and Jing Hongchen, and even the grandchildren of the dean's baby are kept in the dark.

On the screen of the soul guide, Jiu Jiujiu, who gave a complete introduction to the left arm bone of the ice jade scorpion, smiled and said: "The eighth auction item in this auction, the soul bone of the left arm of the ice jade scorpion, the viewing time is 10 minutes!"

In the sea of ​​spirits, Huo Yuhao has already agreed with the Ice Emperor, "Only the ultimate ice can absorb this thing", "Ice blast is a magical skill that even I don't have, enough to make me look down on the extreme north." , must be taken down” exhorted.

Even if Huo Yuhao pretended not to let it go, considering the importance and face of Meng Hongchen, Yu Yu would definitely be willing to shoot it. After the soul bone was obtained, Huo Yuhao would point out "non-extreme ice cannot be absorbed", Also be able to get it in the end.

But that would be too hurtful.

If you really don't know that Meng Hongchen can't absorb that soul bone at all, it's fine, but in the end, the money is spent and the soul bone is in your hands. What do you mean by coming out to win love at this time?Could it have killed you if you said it earlier? Could it be that others will believe you if you just found out?

All the benefits have fallen on you, making Miss Mengxue happy, isn't that appropriate?

As for waiting for Meng Hongchen to absorb half of it and find that something is wrong, and then help to take the spirit bone naturally?

Once there is a problem with absorbing the soul bone, it will often result in death or disability.Huo Yuhao wasn't sure if he had the ability to deal with Xiao Xiao's hand being almost crippled by the Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear Soul Bone in the original book.The left arm bone of the Ice Jade Scorpion, which is at least 5 years old, is more than an order of magnitude more troublesome to deal with than the external palm soul bone of the thousand-year-old Dark Gold Dreadclaw Bear. The age and energy of the former are more than ten times higher than the latter. Once the limb spirit bones of the arms are not fused smoothly, it will be much more difficult than the external spirit bones acting on the palm.His own strength is far less than ten times that of Huo Hang's [-]th level in the original book.

It is even more unreliable to count on other powerhouses to have the bottom line. In the original book, with the company of level 98 Super Douluo Xuanzi, if Huo Hang hadn’t made a move, Xiao Xiao’s hand would have been crippled. Can the strong man in the world be better at dealing with soul bone fusion accidents than Xuanzi?

This is not like the failure of the forging of spirit metal in the original experiment, and it is just a waste of metal. He can't risk Meng Hongchen's health for a lifetime when he is completely unsure.

So even if Meng Hongchen may complain, Huo Yuhao must point out that she can't absorb this soul bone at all, and ask for it in advance, otherwise, Meng Hongchen may directly absorb it with joy tonight. Cheng regretted a big mistake too late.

When you can't effectively stop the loss in case of an accident, and you know that it is a deadly pit, but you still watch someone very close to you step into it, and you pretend that you don't know how to make a profit from it, let it go.If it were someone he didn't know, Huo Yuhao wouldn't have any psychological burden to do this kind of thing.

Huo Yuhao thinks that his personality should be regarded as chaotic, kind, neutral and evil, and he has all the faults of protecting his shortcomings and double standards. Be clear and admit that it is enough to do it upright and don't use another name to pretend to be righteous.

"Teacher Yu, take a step to speak."

Huo Yuhao pulled Yu Yu out of the box to talk alone outside the corridor, Meng Hongchen was a little confused.

Teacher Yu hasn't promised me yet, why did you take him away!
"What? You mean that the Starlight Auction House is deliberately concealing the situation in order to deceive others?"

After hearing Huo Yuhao's conclusion that the Ice Jade Scorpion Soul Bone is not the ultimate ice and cannot be absorbed, Yu Yu immediately instinctively speculated in the darkest direction.

"I can't say that well. After all, if the Star Luo Empire had tested this feature before, it would mean that they would have to pay for an ice attribute soul master who could withstand at least 5 years of soul bone. A high-ranking soul king with an ice attribute...Even if the Star Luo Empire had such a talent pool, would Xu Jiawei use such a person to try instead of reward? After all, once the fusion is successful, the soul bone will basically be irremovable..."

Yu Yu frowned, and didn't continue to talk about this topic: "So how do you know this? And rely on your intuition that is too accurate?"

Huo Yuhao couldn't help but blushed: "It's really not this time... You forgot what my second martial soul is?"

"...If you don't tell me, I almost forgot about it. I don't have any sense of existence at all."

"It's not too late to think about it now."

"So you mean that this soul bone is destined to have nothing to do with Meng Hongchen?"

Huo Yuhao nodded slowly.

"So it's better to allocate this spirit bone to you, and it can only be given to you?"

Huo Yuhao nodded quickly.

"...You are really making it difficult for me. We have done a good job of keeping secrets. Even Meng Hongchen still doesn't know about your kid's second martial soul. Judging by your current behavior, you want to win her understanding and consent first. Take that spirit bone again? You don’t intend to insist on keeping this secret until after the game is over?”

Huo Yuhao was a little uncertain and said: "Senior Meng should... be someone who can keep a secret, right? It's not long before the end of the competition, so it's not like I can't bear it for a few days."

"Hmph, who knows how the little girl behaves? You go and call her out, you need to talk about this matter."

So, Huo Yuhao opened the door of the VIP room, poked his head in, and said, "Senior Meng, Teacher Yu and I have something to discuss with you, come quickly."

Meng Hongchen, who felt as if he had made some shady deal without telling anyone, came to the corridor in a daze.

Yu Yu told Meng Hongchen the fact that Huo Yuhao is not only a genius in soul tool research, but also a genius in martial arts cultivation with twin martial souls and the ultimate ice martial soul.

The viewing time for the spirit bones is only 10 minutes, and if an agreement is not reached as soon as possible, it will affect the subsequent arrangements.

Meng Hongchen was stunned in place, and after a few seconds, he stretched out his finger and pointed at Huo Yuhao tremblingly:
"You, you... don't you trust me?"

Huo Yuhao said embarrassingly: "How could it be, Senior Meng... Isn't it because you have a criminal record that I have to be more cautious?"

Meng Hongchen froze for a moment, then remembered something, and his whole body died down.

This seems to be really no wonder for Huo Yuhao, when he met that pink-haired swindler at the school gate before, Huo Yuhao said that something unfortunate would happen if he approached him, but he still couldn't help being curious and leaned over to him, even Li Xiao was smashed in the head...

Yu Yu rushed into the arena to break the stalemate: "Okay, the matter between you can be resolved by yourself at the hotel. The problem now is that Yu Hao learned through Wuhun that the ice jade scorpion soul bone is actually only the ultimate. It is only possible to absorb the ice. So Xiaomeng, this time, I am afraid that you have to bear the pain and give up, that piece of soul bone can even be said to be used by Yuhao alone in the whole continent."

Meng Hongchen resisted Huo Yuhao's embarrassing face, and muttered, "Is it because of the ultimate ice martial soul that I can understand so much?"

"Well... To be precise, Yuhao's ultimate ice martial soul is actually an ice jade scorpion, so he has such a clear perception. Yuhao, show her the thing on your back to prove it."

The embarrassment on Huo Yuhao's face was even worse, but he took off his shirt neatly, revealing the ice jade scorpion pattern on his back.

It didn't matter if it was shown in front of Yu Yu and Jing Hongchen, but it always felt a bit weird to take off your clothes and show your back in front of a little girl.

Although in terms of biological age, she is her senior sister.

"Ah this!"

Meng Hongchen couldn't help but exclaimed when he saw the lifelike ice jade scorpion pattern on Huo Yuhao's back.

"He's pretty strong!" Meng Hongchen couldn't help but reached out and pinched Huo Yuhao's lower back, causing the latter to quickly put his shirt back on.

"So, Senior Meng, I'm really sorry for that soul bone!" Huo Yuhao said apologetically after putting on his school uniform jacket.

Meng Hongchen waved his hand: "I know, I know, since you have said so, what else can I do. But I heard that the ultimate attribute seems to improve the purity of soul power for soul masters of the same attribute? It is equivalent to an enhanced version of the human form. Ice and snow crown?"

Huo Yuhao nodded: "It should be true, let's try it when we have time. But this is not in China after all, so we need to be careful when trying it. I hope that Senior Meng, you can continue to help me hide this matter. Martial spirits are extremely sensitive beings, and I have to consider my own personal safety, and I will confess to others after the competition is over and I return home smoothly."

Meng Hongchen reached out and pinched Huo Yuhao's face: "How much do you trust me? You still insist on emphasizing it so that I might forget, don't you?"

"No, as long as you understand what I mean, I'm really afraid that if there are too many people in the know, what happened will be accidentally leaked."

"Okay... I'll give you this soul bone, but since it's from Mingdetang's account, it's about as much as grandpa's payment, and it's almost as much as my payment. Remember to work as a cow or a horse in Mingdetang in the future Pay back my bill."

Huo Yuhao: "...you can be happy, anyway, you are destined to work for several lifetimes and you won't be able to pay back, so it's better to owe more."

Seeing that the two of them reached a consensus in a short time, Yu Yu also felt relieved. Both of these two little ancestors were really difficult to serve.

"It seems that you have already finished the transaction, so I will rest assured to wait for the bidding in a while. By the way, Yuhao, the soul bones auctioned by the Starlight Auction House are not available for non-extreme martial souls. It doesn't matter whether they are aware of such a fatal omission. At least not pointing it out at the auction is a serious reputational mistake on their part."

"If you report this to them now, you may get an apology from them and save a lot of money, but I don't advise you to do that."

Huo Yuhao nodded: "I think so too, Mr. Yu. Not to mention that it's hard for us to explain how we got this information without exposing my ultimate martial spirit, just knowing that this spirit bone is not the ultimate Ice is not available, and insisting on buying it under such circumstances is already tantamount to self-destructive behavior.”

"This is tantamount to telling the Star Luo Empire that the Sun Moon Empire has the ultimate ice martial soul. The Star Luo Empire may even choose to use its own props in the auction to raise the price to a high level in order to curb our expansion. Outrageous, I ate the spirit bone back by myself."

"Now that we are not short of money, the most important thing is to get the spirit bones smoothly. At this time, we should not add variables just because we don't even know if there is a discount, so as to avoid nothing."

As he said that, Huo Yuhao smiled again: "And we didn't say that we just let the Starlight Auction go like this. We will tell them that this soul bone can only be absorbed by the ultimate martial soul owner after we finish the competition and return home safely, so we can still blackmail them." If you don’t send some compensation, don’t blame us for spreading the news all over the world to ruin their reputation.”
