Chibao Auction House.
Dugu Bo looked at Ning Liu's back with a bit of admiration.
"Lord, your hand today is really... wonderful!"
Ning Liu heard this, turned around, waved his hand with a relaxed smile on his face.
"Poison Douluo deserves the prize, it's just a little trick."
He looked around and saw that both Xu Jiushi and Dugu Bo looked a little tired.
"Okay, today's business is over, let's go back and rest early."
After saying that, Ning Liu walked straight towards his room, and his figure quickly disappeared into the night.
Xu Jiushi looked at the direction Ning Liu was leaving, his thick eyebrows slightly furrowed, with a bit of confusion on his face. He scratched his head and turned to Dugu Bo.
"I said, old poisoner, what do you mean, Lord?"
h "Why is this move so wonderful?"
Dugu Bo glanced at him and raised the corner of his mouth.
"The master's move has at least three levels of meaning."
"The first level is also the most direct."
Dugu Bo stretched out a finger.
"The soul battle energy-gathering array that the Lord gave us earlier, doesn't it require soul masters to fight on it in order to produce soul power crystals and martial soul essence?"
Xu Jiushi said "Oh" as if he suddenly realized something.
"The Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Competition, what is that scene?"
Dugu Bo's eyes were shining with light.
"Think about it, from the preliminaries, promotion rounds to the finals, there are at least hundreds of high-intensity duels."
h "Which of the students participating in the competition is not the proud one of heaven? Most of their martial arts are at a higher level, but they are also very strange. Weird. "
"With so many battles, all taking place on our soul battle energy gathering array, do you think the Lord can make a lot of money?"
Xu Jiushi's eyes widened and he nodded vigorously.
"Indeed! This business is a guaranteed profit!"
"He then asked again.
"What about the second floor?"
Dugu Bo snorted and asked.
"How did you feel when you met the Pope of Wuhun Palace, Bibi Dong, for the first time today?"
Xu Jiushi recalled the situation in the hall and said thoughtfully.
"He has a strong aura, and he is by no means easy to deal with."
"He is even more meticulous in his thoughts, and his joy and anger cannot be expressed in color."
Dugu Bo nodded.
"Yes, this woman is worthy of the word "hero"."
"Do you think the Lord's "treasonous and unethical" words in Wuhun Palace were just pure arrogance?"
Xu Jiushi was startled.
"Of course not!"
Dugu Bo continued.
"The Wuhun Palace is now very powerful and ambitious."
"Other sects, including the Qibao Glazed Sect, which one is not under the shadow of the Wuhun Palace?"
"The Lord's words may seem crazy, but they are actually a temptation and an attitude."
"What he said is probably what Bibi Dong has planned in his heart, but cannot express it with his mouth."
"So, the Lord will meet with her today. Rather than a negotiation, it is more like a precise psychological game, and more like... a petition. "It's just that this petition is a two-way street."
"Then... what about the third level?"
A hint of real admiration flashed in Dugu Bo's eyes.
"This third level is to draw out the firepower from the bottom of the cauldron, and it is also a conspiracy."
"The Lord deliberately emphasizes the difference between Liuli Tian and the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect, and even does not hesitate to claim "independence"."
"This is clearly telling Bibi Dong that Liuli Tian is a brand new force and has nothing to do with the old sect structure."
"On the one hand, this can dispel Bibi Dong's doubts about whether there is support from the Seven Treasures Glazed Sect behind Liuli Tian, making it easier for her to accept cooperation."
"On the other hand, and more importantly, the Lord made the proposal to host the competition and agreed so readily, even accepting all the seemingly harsh conditions proposed by Wuhun Palace, which is sending a signal to Bibi Dong."
"That is, I, Liu Litian, have money, strength, and am willing to play under your rules."
"But at the same time, he left the words "think carefully" and let her guess whether Liu Litian is really willing to surrender or has other motives."
"This feeling that allows you to see clearly but not understand is what makes it difficult for a suspicious person like Bibi Dong to make a decision."
“It’s really high!”
Dugu Bo patted him on the shoulder.
"You, now you are also the master of the right and wrong hall under the master's command. You must learn from the master in the future, don't just fight and kill all day long."
Xu Jiushi smiled and waved his hand.
"I don't have the brains. It's more satisfying to obey the Lord's orders and act."
"Old Poison, I think your soul power has recovered to some extent, right?"
"How about we go to tighten the soul battle energy gathering array again?"
Dugu Bo nodded when he heard this.
"Okay."
hh After the two of them said that, they walked side by side towards the training ground behind the auction house.
…
Ningliu returned to his room and let out a breath.
"Strength..."
He whispered to himself, a hint of helplessness flashing across his brows.
"After all, he is still not strong enough, otherwise, why would he bother with so much trouble and step by step?"
If he was already a Titled Douluo at this moment, or even higher, why would there be so much calculation and preparation for today's events.
He took out dozens of soul power crystals from the Lingyun Star Luo Ring.
"After all, it is Dugu Bo and Xu Jiushi, two titled Douluo, who have produced a lot of soul power crystals from their competition."
"I don't know if, with these, my soul power can go a step further?"
His current level 69 soul power is only one step away from the Soul Saint.
Ning Liu sat cross-legged on the bed, held a soul power crystal in his palm, closed his eyes, began to circulate his soul power, and entered a state of meditation.
…
At the same time, in a dark and dense forest.
A shrill and unwilling cry of a soul beast suddenly sounded in the silent night, startling a few night birds.
I saw a large century-old spirit beast, which was paralyzed on the ground at this moment, its body tightly wrapped by countless vines as black as ink.
On those vines, there was a strange black light flashing, which was continuously extracting life energy and soul power from the body of the soul beast.
The other end of the vine is connected to a young man sitting cross-legged.
With a soft sound.
The soul beast's body trembled violently, and the last trace of life was completely cut off.
And within the young man's body, a wave of soul power suddenly strengthened and climbed steadily.
The young man opened his eyes suddenly, and there was a contentment in his eyes that was inconsistent with his slightly immature face.
"It really works!"
He murmured in a low voice.
"In just a few days, my soul power has actually improved again!"
"Now, it's already level thirty-five!"
This person is none other than Tang San.
Then, he frowned.
h "However, using this method to plunder the soul beast's energy for cultivation does put a heavy load on the body."
h "Especially the meridians and Dantian, there is a faint tingling sensation."
"The reason should be that...his own meridians have not been completely widened!"
"It seems that we can only rely on spiritual medicine to make up for it."
Tang San slowly stood up and patted the dust on his body.
"I wonder what's going on with the collection of elixirs on the teacher's side."
Before he finished speaking, his figure merged into the night like a ghost, quickly moving in a certain direction.
