Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Chapter 108 Starlight Auction House

It's not that he particularly hates Shrek, but that the Body Sect needs a stepping stone to become famous in a short period of time, and Shrek is the best stepping stone that Huo Yuhao has set his sights on.

Of course, Huo Yuhao doesn't have any particular fondness for Shrek either. After all, he was often brainwashed by those teachers at Shrek, and no one would be happy about that, except for those successfully brainwashed fools.

At night, Huo Yuhao, Song Ming, and Ran Hongyue walked out of the Star Emperor Hotel, through the bustling crowd, and after several streets, arrived in front of a spire building.

"Song Ming, are you sure you didn't take the wrong way?" Huo Yuhao looked up at the building. It was quite tall, but it wasn't very prominent compared to the surrounding tall buildings.

The plaque hanging above the main entrance was engraved with a hammer, so it's no wonder Huo Yuhao was puzzled. This place looked a bit like a blacksmith shop.

Song Ming understood Huo Yuhao's doubts and immediately explained, "Young Master, please rest assured, this subordinate would not make a mistake. This is the Starlight Auction House. That hammer pattern is different from that of a blacksmith shop. The blacksmith shop's is much rougher."

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao nodded slightly. A couple of days ago, he instructed Song Ming to inquire about the Starlight Auction House auctioning off a Ranking Knife recently.

"Yuhao, long time no see."

A gentle voice came from behind. Huo Yuhao turned around and saw a familiar face. Wang Yan was walking over with a group of Shrek students.

"Senior Brother Bei, long time no see. How have you been lately?" Huo Yuhao smiled slightly, his tone as usual.

"Not bad, everything is as usual. Yuhao, are you here to attend the auction too?" Bei Bei had a warm smile on his face, making it impossible to see his true thoughts.

Heh, I almost lost my life, and you're still pretending, Huo Yuhao thought to himself, but he didn't expose it. "Since we've met, why not go in together? It's been a while since we've seen each other, and there are a few senior brothers and sisters as well."

"Alright, it has indeed been a long time. Yuhao, you don't know, someone has been thinking about you day and night," Bei Bei said meaningfully, then looked at Wang Qiu'er.

Uh!

Huo Yuhao had the urge to slap himself twice. He was really just being polite. Bei Bei couldn't possibly not know about the hatred between Shrek and the Body Sect. Normally, he shouldn't be contacting their Body Sect.

Without further ado, Huo Yuhao took the lead and walked towards the inside of the auction house, while also glancing at Wang Qiu'er, only to see her staring straight at him, with Dai Yueheng, the tagalong, standing beside her.

Walking into the entrance of the auction house, there were no staff members to guide them. Inside the door was a five-meter-wide passage that stretched downwards, with a red carpet laid on the ground.

The group walked down the passage. After about twenty meters, they saw the staff. The staff first registered each person, then gave each person a number plate. After receiving the number plate, the staff led the group inside.

After passing through an ancient door, the scene in front of them suddenly changed. Everywhere they looked was a golden and silver color. The wide corridor was resplendent and luxurious. Even the Star Emperor Hotel under the royal family was a bit inferior.

The corridor behind the door was ten meters wide and five meters high. The ground was covered with precious ivory-white jade bricks. On both sides of the corridor, every ten meters, there were pairs of pillars of the same material, with exquisite patterns carved on them. The front was as if brushed with a layer of gold powder. From the top of the corridor hung luxurious and exquisite crystal chandeliers, and the bright yellow light shone down on the surroundings, making the entire corridor like a golden ocean.

In short, it was as luxurious as possible, and even the air seemed to carry the scent of money.

Seeing this scene, Huo Yuhao couldn't help but sigh at the wealth of the Starlight Auction House. He knew that this was just a passage, and the main event was still to come.

While walking, the staff member leading the way gave a brief introduction to everyone.

Today's event is a special auction for soul tools. Because only soul tools below level six will be auctioned, the specifications are relatively low. According to the grading, it can only be considered a level four auction. The Starlight Auction House's grading is from one to five, with level one being the highest specification. Only level one auctions are held in the main auction hall, while Huo Yuhao and the others are going to auction hall number twelve, which is exclusive to level four auctions.

Before everyone entered the auction hall, the staff member leading the way gave each person a golden mask.

Under the staff member's explanation, everyone learned that the mask not only concealed their appearance and hid their identity, but also served to distinguish their status.

The masks were divided into six colors: white, yellow, purple, black, red, and gold. White was the lowest level, while Huo Yuhao and the others received the golden masks, representing the highest level.

The light in auction hall number twelve was a bit dim, because only a few wall lamps were lit in the hall at the moment. Two hundred large chairs covered with velvet fabric were arranged in an arc around the auction stage.

Huo Yuhao and the others were led by the staff to sit in the first row.

Afterward, maids came over to ask them what drinks they needed. Huo Yuhao casually took a glass of juice from the tray in the maid's hand.

As for the official members of Shrek, Bei Bei and the others, they seemed to be deliberately avoiding something. Huo Yuhao knew what was going on and tacitly didn't mention it.

Also, not long after he left Shrek, Tang Ya also disappeared. Bei Bei even came to ask Huo Yuhao if he knew anything about Tang Ya's whereabouts.

Of course, Huo Yuhao wouldn't know, but thinking about the development of the original story, Tang Ya should have seen the gap between her and the Shrek Seven Devils in terms of talent and left at this time, and later embarked on the path of the evil soul master.

"Huo Yuhao, can I know why you joined the Body Sect?" During the conversation between Huo Yuhao and Bei Bei, Wang Yan, who had been silent, suddenly interjected and asked.

Hearing this, Huo Yuhao looked at Wang Yan with a faint gaze. He heard a hint of questioning in Wang Yan's tone, "I joined because I wanted to. Besides, I have the Body Soul, so isn't it normal to join the Body Sect? Does Teacher Wang have any questions?"

In fact, Huo Yuhao was somewhat forced to join the Body Sect by Du Bu Si. Du Bu Si can't be considered a good person. Huo Yuhao knew that if he didn't join at that time, Du Bu Si might have considered getting rid of him in the end.

Those big forces have done a lot of this kind of thing, especially the major empires. In their words, it's either be used by me, or no one can use them.

It's just that Du Bu Si was quite good to Huo Yuhao, helping Huo Yuhao's martial soul to awaken for the second time, and then giving him the inheritance imprint, so Huo Yuhao's initial unhappiness had long since dissipated.

Uh!

Wang Yan was choked speechless by Huo Yuhao's words. In his impression, Huo Yuhao was a student of Shrek and should repay Shrek, but now he turned around and joined the opposite side of Shrek. How is this different from a traitor?
