Douluo: This soul master is a big eater

Chapter 40 Canteen
Yun Yi took a look around and found nothing in this auction that could interest him.

Qian Renxue, who was standing by, also noticed this and whispered, "Brother Yun Yi, you don't seem to be interested in these things?"

Yun Yi smiled and said, "Although the items sold at the auction house are all rare treasures, except for the storage soul guides, the other items are not of much significance to soul masters. However, it did broaden my horizons."

Qian Renxue also smiled and nodded, "Yes, a truly good treasure cannot be measured by money."

When Yun Yi was about to leave, the host on the stage said to the bidders with a smile on his face, "Next, we will auction a rare treasure. Please pay attention if you are interested. Especially male guests."

Seeing that Yun Yi's attention was attracted by the host's words, Qian Renxue's eyes flashed with disdain. Having lived in Tiandou for a long time, she could probably guess what would be auctioned next.

As he spoke, the host motioned to the audience, and a graceful woman brought up a tray. The tray was covered with a red cloth, so the contents could not be seen.

Qian Renxue looked at the woman who raised her hand and only brought out a tray, and thought to herself, "If it's not a person? Then what is it?"

At this moment, her curiosity was also aroused by the host. She had participated in auctions many times. Generally speaking, when the host said this, the ones being auctioned were beautiful women with special martial spirits.

Yun Yi looked at the host on the stage with great interest, waiting quietly for the host to reveal the answer.

The host said somewhat mysteriously: "Can you all guess what this is? Well, let me first reveal the base price to all the distinguished guests. The starting price of this lot is 100,000 gold soul coins. Each increase in price must not be less than 10,000 gold. Soul coins. This is the best of the best."

"Now, all distinguished guests, please take a closer look." As he said this, the host grabbed the red cloth and pulled it off fiercely.

I saw a huge black block on the tray in the woman's hand.

"I'm sure everyone here knows what this is. Yes, it's whale glue..."

When Yun Yi heard the word "whale glue", he was surprised. This is a good thing. In Douyi, an era when cultivation was still uncivilized, no one knew the function of whale glue. Most nobles still used it for sex.

"This piece of whale glue comes from a cetacean soul beast that is more than 50,000 years old. It comes from a Contra-level strongman from Hanhai City, the largest port city in the empire. What are you waiting for, distinguished guests? Let the women feel How powerful are you!"

As the host of the auction, mobilizing the atmosphere and the enthusiasm of the bidders was obviously a compulsory course. Obviously, he successfully ignited the enthusiasm of the bidders. Yun Yi looked around and the noble lords around him all had lustful expressions on their faces.

"One hundred thousand gold soul coins..." Yun Yi thought and shook his head. Winning the imperial battle made him earn one hundred and fifty thousand gold soul coins, but it was obvious that this thing could not be bought with one hundred and fifty thousand.

"Let's give it a try, what if no one buys it?" Yun Yi said secretly in his heart.

Yun Yi, who was sitting next to Qian Renxue, raised the sign in his hand and quoted his price, "One hundred and ten thousand gold soul coins."

Suddenly, everyone's strange gazes fell on Yun Yi and Qian Renxue.

Qian Renxue felt a little embarrassed sitting next to Yun Yi. Those who could afford to come to the auction were all princes, nobles, and soul masters. As a prince, he did not wear a mask for convenience, and he was the one who brought Yun Yi in.

"Um...Brother Yun Yi, you are young and strong, and you have a special martial spirit. There are no hidden dangers in your body, right?" Qian Renxue asked Yun Yi with difficulty.

Yun Yi came back to his senses, and felt everyone's gazes. He also showed a look of realization, and said to Qian Renxue a little embarrassedly, "Your Highness, this is a good thing..."

Qian Renxue heard this and before Yun Yi could finish, her face darkened and she gritted her teeth and said, "I know what this is, but you can't use it, kid!"

Seeing the expression on the face of a man dressed like Qian Renxue, Yun Yi found it a little funny and said to Qian Renxue, "Come closer and listen."

After whispering for a while, Qian Renxue showed a look of surprise and said to Yun Yi, "You kid didn't lie to me?"

Yun Yi said sternly, "How dare I deceive His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? I have taken no less than a hundred kinds of rare and precious medicines. This thing does have this effect, but it still needs special means to be processed."

Seeing this, Qian Renxue also coughed lightly, raised the sign in her hand somewhat embarrassedly, and quoted her own price: "Two hundred thousand gold soul coins."

Qian Renxue's face was a signboard in Tiandou. The prince personally held up the sign, so who else would dare to bid? However, Qian Renxue was also very good at dealing with people, and directly raised the price by double.

Seeing this, the auctioneer on the stage could only helplessly knock down his hammer. Although it did not reach the ideal price in his mind, he still made a profit overall.

Seeing the auctioneer drop the hammer, Qian Renxue quickly called for Yun Yi to go and get the things together. She didn't want to be stared at by those nobles with strange looks anymore.

Then the two of them followed the staff into a room.

The staff member also said to Qian Renxue, "Your Highness, your lot will be delivered soon."

Yun Yi, who was sitting nearby, casually picked up the fruit on the table and started eating it.

After a while, the staff brought the tray with all the things in it. Qian Renxue took out a card from her soul guide and handed it to the staff.

"Thank you, Your Highness, for your presence." After saying that, the staff member took the card, bowed slightly to Qian Renxue, and left.

Yun Yi smiled and said, "Your Highness, when you return to the palace, you can find a fire attribute soul master and an ice attribute soul master. Use the soul power flame to roast the medicine to stimulate the power of the medicine. There will be some unexpected effects during the absorption period. The ice attribute soul master can suppress it during the absorption."

Qian Renxue shook her head upon hearing this, and pushed the tray of whale glue on the table towards Yun Yi, smiling and saying, "It was agreed that I will be the host today, and this can be considered as a gift for our first meeting."

After saying that, Qian Renxue observed Yun Yi's expression, not missing a single detail.

Seeing this, Yun Yi unceremoniously put the whale glue into his soul guide and smiled at Qian Renxue, "In that case, thank you, Your Highness."

Seeing Yun Yi accept her gift, Qian Renxue smiled with satisfaction and said, "Let's go, it's getting late. I still have some things to deal with. I'll send someone to take you back."

Looking at the sun about to set outside the window, Yun Yi smiled and nodded.

The two of them slowly walked out of the auction hall. Yun Yi bowed slightly to Qian Renxue and said, "Thank you for your hospitality today, Your Highness. I hope that Your Highness will give me more guidance in the future."

Qian Renxue saw a gleam in Yun Yi's eyes and smiled at him, "You're welcome. If you don't mind, you can call me Brother Xue from now on. It's better not to mention the word Crown Prince. If you encounter any difficulties in Tiandou, you can come to the East Palace."

After saying that, Qian Renxue took out a gold medal from her soul guide, on which was engraved the word "Tian", and handed it to Yun Yi.

Yun Yi took the token with a smile and said, "Thank you very much, big brother."

Hearing the familiarity in Yun Yi's address, Qian Renxue was very satisfied, but at the same time she even felt a little strange. Everything seemed to be going too smoothly. A genius like Yun Yi did not show the character that he should have at this age. Instead, he acted more like a veteran. This even reminded her of her cheap teacher.

Qian Renxue watched Yun Yi get on the carriage, and she couldn't help but become more curious about Yun Yi, "Interesting..."

As Yun Yi boarded the carriage and left, Qian Renxue also returned to her own carriage, her lips moving slightly.

"Go check everything the kid said, including whether the woman went to the Star Dou Great Forest five years ago. Also, send a message to Grandpa, get a piece of whale glue, and find someone in the temple to try."

"Yes, young master." A voice appeared beside Qian Renxue's ears, and then the carriage drove towards the Prince's Eastern Palace. ...

Not long after, Yun Yi also returned to Tiandou Royal Academy.

Yun Yi did not return to his dormitory, but went towards the classroom dormitory. In the morning, Qin Ming also showed him the way and told Yun Yi his house number.

Following Qin Ming's guidance, Yun Yi came to a room and knocked gently on the door.

The next second, Qin Ming opened the door.

"How is it? How does it feel to be with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" Qin Ming said with a smile.

Yun Yi chuckled and said, "It feels good. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treats me very well."

"Of course. Let's go. You're back at this time. You haven't eaten yet? I'll take you to the cafeteria."

Hearing this, Yun Yi nodded and followed Qin Ming quietly.

Soon Qin Ming brought Yun Yi to a palace. Yes, it was a palace where the banquet was held.

"Senior, the word 'canteen' may not be suitable for this place." Yun Yi said with a smile.

Qin Ming also explained with a smile, "Since the college has various activities like this from time to time, it naturally needs a place to hold banquets and celebrations, so the college simply turned this place into a cafeteria."

Yun Yi followed Qin Ming and took a look. The dining style was no different from the buffet in his previous life. Food was placed on each plate, and the styles were extremely small and exquisite.

Yun Yi and Qin Ming took some food and sat facing each other.

Qin Ming pointed at the food in front of Yun Yi and said, "Brother, try it, there is a surprise."

"Oh? But the chef here is too stingy, only putting so little on a plate." Yun Yi looked at the food in front of him. Although it was fragrant, it seemed not much different from the food Qian Renxue invited him to eat today.

"You'll know after you eat it. It will definitely fill you up." Qin Ming said with a smile.

Yun Yi picked up the cutlery and took a bite of the unknown steak in front of him. As he slowly swallowed it, a look of horror appeared on Yun Yi's face. He could clearly feel the amazing energy contained in the food, which turned into a trace of soul power as time passed and integrated into the exercise route of Xuantian Gong.

"This is... no wonder there is only so little in each plate." Yun Yi said in disbelief.

Qin Ming smiled and said, "Now, Xiaoyi, do you understand the so-called resource gap? These dishes are available in unlimited quantities as long as you can eat them. These are made by food-related soul masters with special abilities. However, because they contain too much energy, they are difficult to digest, so only a little bit is put on a plate."

“No wonder I had a special feeling when I ate Oscar’s sausage for the first time. It can actually allow food-type soul masters to develop in the direction of cultivating talents.” Yun Yi said with a look of sudden realization.

Then Yun Yi slowly stood up. Qin Ming knew what Yun Yi wanted to do, so he said to Yun Yi, "Don't go, Xiao Yi. You can't digest it. Eating too much will only make you full and even affect your appetite. In the end, it will be less efficient than eating three meals a day."

“Senior, the physical martial soul not only has a strong physical fitness, but also a strong stomach.” Yun Yi said with a smile.

Qin Ming was slightly startled when he heard this, then he smiled and said, "It was me, your senior, who underestimated you. Go ahead, eat as much as you can. I will take you to the simulated training environment in a while. With this kind of diet and training environment, I believe you will soon have a lot of gains."

Yun Yi smiled and nodded, then went to the food collection area, took away four or five plates, and returned to his seat to eat happily.

Looking at the sparsely populated students around, Yun Yi sighed, "With such good conditions, there are only a few people coming at mealtime. It's really sad."

Qin Ming also explained, "Tiandou Royal Academy never recruits students from outside. If you want to enroll, you must first have a noble title. I am a teacher who is valued by the three education committee members, so I can stay in Tiandou Royal Academy."

Yun Yi's eyes flashed with disdain when he heard this. Thousands of years of history in the previous life had already told Yun Yi what the nobles were like. It was just that the things they monopolized were different. The nobles of Douluo Continent were not much different from the ancient families that monopolized cultural knowledge in the previous life.

With this in mind, Yun Yi felt that Shrek was a good place. Without the help of his connections, he would not be in Tiandou Royal Academy now. No one can achieve success overnight. It is very important to use reasonable relationships to get help from others.

Those who try to reach the top in one step almost always fall to their death.

After eating and drinking, Qin Ming and Yun Yi slowly left the palace called the canteen. At this moment, Qin Ming was in trouble.

"Xiao Yi, your martial soul is a little special. As your teacher, I don't know what kind of simulated environment I should take you to for training." Qin Ming said to Yun Yi.

Yun Yi waved his hand and said, "Just take me to the simulated environment where ice attribute soul masters practice."

"Ice attribute? Why?" Qin Ming asked Yun Yi with some surprise.

"You'll know when you get there. I still need your help." Yun Yi smiled slightly. He had deliberately left some space for the whale glue in the soul guide.

Qin Ming looked at Yun Yi, thought for a moment and nodded. He also understood why Flanders and Shrek's teachers could not teach Yun Yi. Obviously, this special martial spirit has its own way of cultivation, and Yun Yi is also a child with his own ideas. Such a student can only be provided with better resources for him to explore.

Yun Yi followed Qin Ming up the mountain. After a while, Yun Yi gradually felt the cold. When Yun Yi followed Qin Ming to the top of the mountain, the surroundings were completely covered with ice and snow.

Qin Ming pointed to a cave not far away and said, "That is the mimicry field for ice attribute soul masters. There are not many ice attribute soul masters in the academy, and usually not many people come here. Compared to here, ice attribute soul masters would prefer to go to the far north, which is a natural mimicry training field."

Yun Yi nodded, took out the whale glue he had taken from Qian Renxue from his soul guide, and then said to Qin Ming, "Senior, please help me heat this with your firepower."

Even Qin Ming was confused by Yun Yi. He had been in the academy for a long time and had some understanding of the things that nobles liked. However, he never dreamed that the help Yun Yi asked him to do was to use his soul power flame to heat the whale glue.

However, he did not ask anything. He took the piece of whale glue from Yun Yi's hand and used his soul power to heat it up. He also understood why Yun Yi chose the ice-attributed simulated training environment. There were no women here. Yun Yi's use of this thing was obviously related to his magical martial soul.

As Qin Ming's pure flames burned, slowly, a strange fragrance emanated from the whale glue. The fragrance was very strong, but it was condensed and did not dissipate.

When Qin Ming smelled the scent, he realized that whale jelly was a good thing, so he immediately handed it to Yun Yi. Yun Yi did not waste any time and immediately ate the steaming whale jelly in big mouthfuls. The taste was like jelly in his previous life, and it exuded a strong fishy smell when it entered the mouth.

"vomit……"

Yun Yi suppressed the churning feeling in his stomach and resisted the nausea, and finally finished eating the whale glue. However, after swallowing the whale glue, the fishy smell quickly turned into a hot stream that flowed into his stomach. Not only that, the whale glue stirred up a strong fragrance that jumped out of Yun Yi's mouth and nose, which made Yun Yi couldn't help but hum in comfort.

"Senior, I will go in and practice first. You can go back first." Yun Yi said to Qin Ming.

Without waiting for Qin Ming's consent, Yun Yi forced himself to suppress the feeling of his blood rushing and rushed into the cave.

Looking at Yun Yi's hurried back, Qin Ming smiled and shook his head, then slowly walked down the mountain.
