Chapter 481 Today We Set Sail

This right leg soul bone is actually called the Bloodthirsty Berserk Hurricane Right Leg Bone, which grants Dai Mubai the ability of bloodthirst. After using the soul bone skill, he can enter a berserk state instantly, with attack, defense, and speed all increased by one hundred percent. However, during this period, he cannot use other soul skills, and the issue of sanity is linked to Dai Mubai's own mental strength. There is still a certain risk involved.

Fortunately, after absorbing this soul bone, Dai Mubai's soul power level jumped by two levels, successfully advancing to level 67.

After Dai Mubai absorbed the soul bone, the group rested for a day and the next day they drove their carriage to the target city by the sea – Hanhai City.

The group did not rush to go out to sea, but first went to the Great Soul Fighting Arena in Hanhai City.

The Great Soul Fighting Arena here is somewhat special, as it is close to the seaport, and the soul masters participating in the contests are almost all sea soul masters.

Sea soul masters are called sea soul masters because their racial bloodlines are not solely human. Some soul masters have even obtained their own martial soul characteristics due to martial soul awakening, such as horns on their heads, gills on their necks, and large pincers on their hands. Such individuals are common here.

Moreover, the cultivation methods and combat styles of these soul masters are also unique. Unlike ordinary soul masters, their battles are more akin to classifying themselves as branches of their martial souls, with primitive combat methods similar to sea soul beasts.

However, in this Great Soul Fighting Arena, Tang San and his companions did not participate. Instead, Bai Chenxiang and Ma Hongjun teamed up.

Tang Sui knew that this was indirectly creating opportunities for the two of them. Since the battle with the Wolf Pirates, although Bai Chenxiang's attitude towards Ma Hongjun was still the same playful "punching his chest with a small fist," she was no longer as repulsed and distant as before; she had become much gentler.

The more unique and primitive combat style of the sea soul masters put considerable pressure on Ma Hongjun and Bai Chenxiang, whose martial souls were both of the avian type. Fortunately, Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire Phoenix's flames were potent enough to forcefully evaporate the sea tornadoes created by his sea soul master opponents. He narrowly secured the victory through severe burns caused by the scorching effect of his flames.

Tang Sui looked at Bai Chenxiang's complex expression and, without looking sideways, followed her brother and future sister-in-law to their next destination – the auction house.

What if the three of them walked in a line?

As long as she was fearless, she wouldn't feel awkward.

When they entered the auction house wearing masks with disguise and illusionary skills, the auction for this session had already been underway for some time.

The hall, permeated with the salty scent of the sea, was completely dark. Only the center stage where the auctioneer stood was illuminated. Lights also emanated from the numbered plaques held up from the surrounding VIP seats, glowing faintly with each bid made by the auctioneer.

Because they arrived late, they had to take seats in the very last row.

The items auctioned were all rare and exotic. When the Dragon Abyss Boat, capable of diving, long-distance sailing, and even withstanding attacks from a hundred-year-old soul beast, appeared, Tang San unhesitatingly raised his plaque and purchased this treasure for ten thousand gold spirit coins.

After the Dragon Abyss Boat, one auction item after another was presented. Not only were the Shrek Seven Devils bored, but the other guests also showed little interest.

A tray covered with a black cloth was brought forward. The auctioneer looked at the description of the auction item on the list. The stiff smile on his face, which was already strained due to the low transaction volume, became even more unpleasant. However, he still mustered his spirits, took a deep breath, managed his personal expression, and began to build suspense:

"The treasure to be auctioned next is rather special."

As soon as the word "special" was uttered, the bored guests immediately looked up, wanting to see how it was special.

"This treasure is a heirloom from the provider's family. According to appraisal, it is impervious to fire, unaffected by water, and even under pressure, it can withstand the attacks of our Soul Douluo-level appraisers and remain undamaged. This proves that its pressure resistance can likely be further enhanced!"

At this point, his tone was full of excitement, and the guests whose curiosity had been piqued by the auctioneer also looked over.

If a Soul Douluo-level appraiser couldn't break it, then above that would be a Titled Douluo!

Thinking of this, many people's breathing quickened, and their numbered plaques in hand twitched with eagerness.

Tang San and his companions, who had thought this auction had no good items, were also drawn in.

"It can withstand the attacks of a Soul Douluo and remain undamaged? Could it be similar to the golden silk soft armor crafted by Senior Lou Gao?" Ning Rongrong guessed.

Oscar thought it unlikely and pointed to the tray, which was less than two shoulders wide. "I don't think so. Look at the size of that thing; it doesn't look like armor at all."

Tang Sui also looked thoughtfully at the tray covered by the black cloth and quietly nudged the system in her mind.

'System, can you scan what this auction item is?'

The system did not answer, but a crisp "ding" sounded, and then it spoke with a hint of surprise: [I can't scan it?]

Tang Sui mentally exclaimed, "Huh?" If even the system couldn't scan it, it must be no ordinary item.

She had to acquire it.

It wasn't just Tang Sui who had this thought; everyone else was already rubbing their hands together, preparing to raise their paddles and bid.

The auctioneer, having piqued everyone's curiosity to a certain height, wore a subtle smile on his face. His voice, contrary to his thoughts, rose in volume as he said,

"And this magical treasure is—!"

The auctioneer suppressed the pain of potential humiliation and maintained an excited tone as he unveiled the mysterious veil of the auction item:

"A magical potato!"

Shrek Seven Devils: "......"

System: [......]

Other guests: "......"

A silence like that of a flock of crows flying past descended upon the auction house. After a moment of stunned silence, many revealed expressions of disdain, thinking, "That's it?"

While the power to block a Soul Sage was indeed enticing, they looked at the palm-sized, muddy potato on the tray and felt utterly deceived.

This palm-sized little thing, how could it protect the whole body?

Could they guarantee that a Soul Sage opponent would definitely strike this potato?

What was the point of being indestructible and impervious to water and fire? This was clearly deceptive marketing!

Da Fei loudly mocked the system for not being able to detect a potato after so long.

Then, it was forcefully squeezed downwards onto an invisible wall by an unseen force, suffering the punishment of heavenly justice.

"I thought it was something significant. A potato? Is it deliberately a gimmick?"

"After all, the reputation of the Great Soul Fighting Arena is at stake; it shouldn't be fake."

"Just this thing, you say it's small, but it's almost the size of a palm, and it's spherical. Even if you stuff it in your chest, it would be visible as soon as you put it there! Block what!"

"Boring."

"That's it?"

Sighs of disappointment rippled through the crowd. The auctioneer felt extremely bitter, but his face was still full of hope as he shouted, "Bidding begins now! Starting at one thousand gold spirit coins!"
