Douluo Dalu: Huo Yuhao Knows the Plot

Another Ranked List Engraving Knife appeared, which was of great significance not only to them but even to Shrek Academy.

Although Wang Yan didn't understand engraving knives, he instantly perked up when he heard the words 'Ranked List Engraving Knife'.

He understood that this was something he had to bring back to Shrek Academy no matter what.

Even if it cost a high price, the academy would only reward him.

The Ranked List Engraving Knife had long been on the list of rare items sought after by the academy!

Especially the Soul Guidance Department; even Vice Dean Qian Duoduo hadn't been able to use a Ranked List Engraving Knife yet.

The suddenly heated atmosphere below the stage brought a dazzling smile to Qingya's pretty face.

She wasn't in a hurry at all, waiting a full five minutes before the bidders below gradually calmed down.

"Auctioneer Qingya, what are you waiting for? Start the bidding."

Someone couldn't help but urge.

Qingya smiled slightly and said, "Distinguished guests, please don't be anxious.

Everyone knows that our Starlight Auction House has always been known for its honesty.

We provide quality assurance for any auction item that leaves our premises, and we will never hand over any defective or problematic items to our distinguished guests without explanation.

Therefore, please allow me to finish speaking."

With that, Qingya glanced at the simple and unadorned engraving knife with some regret, sighed softly, and said, "If this were just a normal Ranked List Engraving Knife, then you distinguished guests should also want to obtain it; it would never appear here under any circumstances.

The preciousness of Ranked List Engraving Knives has always been among the top in the world of soul guides, even more precious than some rare materials.

The reason why this Ranked List Engraving Knife appears in today's Level 4 auction as the finale is simply because it has certain problems."

"In the ranking of engraving knives, it ranks ninety-ninth.

In fact, with its capabilities, it shouldn't be ranked so low.

It should even be possible to enter the top thirty.

The main reason for its low ranking is because it is a cursed engraving knife."

He Caitou suddenly exclaimed, "Could it be that fierce knife that backfires on its owner, Spirit Devourer?"

The people from Shrek Academy were all sitting in the first row of the auction house, and his voice wasn't soft, so Qingya naturally heard it.

A look of surprise immediately appeared on her pretty face: "As expected, there are knowledgeable guests.

That's right, this engraving knife is the Spirit Devourer Engraving Knife, ranked ninety-ninth among the Ranked List Engraving Knives and known as the fierce knife."

"The Spirit Devourer Engraving Knife has a history of over three thousand years.

Three thousand years ago, it appeared in the Sun Moon Empire.

Its creator was a stunningly talented soul guide.

It is said that this soul guide eventually reached the ninth rank in cultivation.

Moreover, he was not only a soul guide but also a soul master, a terrifying evil soul master.

"The Spirit Devourer Engraving Knife was made by that evil soul master in his later years.

It is said that not long after he made this engraving knife, he encountered the greatest enemy of his life.

This generation's genius, but also a generation's murderer, then fell.

And at the time of his fall, he did not carry this Spirit Devourer Engraving Knife with him.

As time passed, this fierce knife fell into the hands of the people."

"In the history that our Starlight Auction House has traced, this fierce knife has had a total of thirty-seven owners.

However, without exception, all thirty-seven of these people eventually died tragically.

Among them, nine even became evil soul masters.

According to legend, this fierce knife Spirit Devourer contains a trace of the soul of that genius evil soul master, which will lead people to evil.

Those whose minds are not firm cannot use it, and it must never be used frequently.

Therefore, its ranking has fallen again and again, finally reaching the point where it cannot fall any further.

It is only because of its history and past glory that it has never been removed from the Ranked List Engraving Knives.

Those who like it have always hoped that it can find a true owner.

What we hope is that its owner can have a light attribute, so that it will be difficult to be backfired by it.

Of course, we don't fully understand this engraving knife, so please be cautious when purchasing it.

What we can guarantee is that as long as soul power is not injected into it, it will not backfire on its owner.

Therefore, as a Ranked List Engraving Knife, it is also very good to use it as a collectible."

Listening to Qingya's long introduction, everyone understood why a Ranked List Engraving Knife would appear at a Level 4 auction.

Many people who had been eager to try had remained silent.

As a Ranked List Engraving Knife, the price of this Spirit Devourer would never be too low.

But no matter how good a Ranked List Engraving Knife is, it can't compare to one's life!

Wouldn't it be a waste to buy it back at a high price and not be able to use it?

After all, this is only a Level 4 auction, and the people who come to participate are not so wealthy, so many people have hesitated.

He Caitou sighed, shook his head, and said, "This fierce knife cannot be taken.

I have heard my teacher tell its story.

The terror of this fierce knife's backlash is definitely not as simple as the auctioneer said.

This can be seen from the fact that it has never had a spared owner.

It is a Ranked List Engraving Knife!

If you buy it back, can you really resist not using it?

If I remember correctly, the teacher said that the soul guides produced by this Spirit Devourer will inherently have at least two additional special effects, both of which are quite terrifying.

It's a pity."

No one would joke with their own lives.

When He Caitou finished saying these words, Wang Yan couldn't help but reveal a bit of disappointment.

He was already prepared to give up on this fierce knife Spirit Devourer.

"Spirit Devourer Engraving Knife, starting price of one hundred thousand gold soul coins, each bid must not be less than five thousand gold soul coins.

Distinguished guests, you can start bidding."

Qingya said with a smile.

In fact, she wasn't excited at all right now.

With her nearly ten years of experience as an auctioneer, she could tell from the reaction below that this fierce knife Spirit Devourer was likely to go unsold.

In fact, after the fierce knife Spirit Devourer first came to the Starlight Auction House, it originally appeared at the top-level auction.

The initial price was not one hundred thousand, but three hundred thousand gold soul coins.

This engraving knife was accidentally acquired by the Starlight Auction House.

No matter what, it was a Ranked List Engraving Knife!

But who knew that its fierce reputation was so great that none of those high-level guests were willing to own it.

They weren't even willing to collect it.

Tell me, who would dare to collect it at the risk of having an evil soul master's soul by their side?

The history of the fierce knife Spirit Devourer can be completely described as brutal.

Including its creator, to this day, no one has ever lived more than ten years after obtaining it.

Therefore, although it has a history of over three thousand years, it has been sealed away most of the time.

The boss of the Starlight Auction House had no choice but to let it frequently appear at some auctions and promised the auctioneers below that whoever could sell this Spirit Devourer would receive one percent of the total amount as a commission.

But contrary to expectations, the fierce knife Spirit Devourer had gone through more than a dozen auctions, but the final result was always unsatisfactory, which also caused the starting price to drop again and again, already close to the cost price that the Starlight Auction House had acquired it for.

Let it go unsold.

Originally, Qingya didn't place too much hope on this engraving knife.

Just then, suddenly, a somewhat childish voice rang out from below the stage: "One hundred thousand gold soul coins."

Qingya was stunned for a moment.

This was the first time someone had bid after the fierce knife Spirit Devourer appeared at the Starlight Auction House!

After a brief surprise, she was filled with joy.

You know, one percent of the commission is one thousand gold soul coins!

Even if she spent it extravagantly, it would be enough to spend for a few years.

She usually earns only dozens to one hundred gold soul coins for hosting an auction.

After all, she is only a Purple-level auctioneer.

Being able to auction off the fierce knife Spirit Devourer might allow her to advance to the Black level and host higher-level auctions.

For a time, Qingya was so pleasantly surprised that she forgot to respond.
