With nothing more they wanted to buy, Wang Yan naturally organized everyone to return to the hotel to rest.
After all, there was still a big competition tomorrow!
However, once everyone left the hotel, Huo Yuhao's figure disappeared.
Because everyone was still in shock over the auction, Huo Yuhao's disappearance went completely unnoticed.
…
The Auction House.
At this moment, in the auctioneer's private lounge, Qingya had just finished freshening up, when a knock sounded at the door.
Qingya's lips curved into a slight smile. Wrapping her delicate body in a towel, she approached the door.
She seemed to know who it was outside, yet still asked playfully,
"Who's there~?"
"The night is long and sleep eludes me. Qingya Jie, it's me—your brother Yuhao~"
As Huo Yuhao's voice sounded, the door slowly opened.
Huo Yuhao quickly stepped inside and immediately locked the door behind him.
Then, his hands wrapped around Qingya's waist.
"Qingya Jie~"
He whispered in her ear before attempting to move closer.
However, a jade hand stopped him.
"Yuhao, don't… you'll make a mistake like this…"
Seeing Qingya's shy expression, Huo Yuhao's blue hair faded and a brilliant golden aura enveloped him!
"Qingya Jie, we're human—everyone makes mistakes~"
"And it's you, Jie, who seduced me first!"
"Tell me! You like me just like this, don't you—this shota!"
With a push, Huo Yuhao sent Qingya onto the bed, her towel vanishing in the process.
…
Soon, the room echoed with Qingya's pleas.
"I really know I was wrong, Yuhao, please forgive me~"
"Making you slip up! Making you slip up! Making you slip up!"
…
Meanwhile, elsewhere.
Thirty minutes was enough time for many things to unfold.
The starting bid for the ten-thousand-year Soul Beast embryo was an astronomical one hundred million Gold Soul Coins.
The ensuing bidding war could only be described as brutal.
At first, three parties participated simultaneously.
The price climbed rapidly, soon reaching 130 million Gold Soul Coins, then the pace began to slow.
After all, anything above 100 million wasn't something ordinary powers could easily pay.
At that moment, the numbers suddenly jumped!
"150 million!"
One party had increased by a staggering 20 million at once.
In the second VIP lounge, a young man stood before the Spirit Conduction Screen, fists clenched.
"This time, let's see who dares to challenge me!"
Behind him, a dozen people sat on the sofa, their expressions ranging from envy, indifference, jealousy, to dissatisfaction.
Anyone from Shrek Academy would immediately recognize them as the students and teachers of the Sun Moon Royal Spirit Conductor Academy, here for the competition.
The young man at the front was none other than the captain of their reserve team, Xiao Hongchen.
At this moment, Xiao Hongchen was completely obsessed with the embryo.
Huo Yuhao had already become a mountain pressing down on his heart. Now, to surpass Huo Yuhao, this embryo was his tangible opportunity!
"I must win this Soul Beast embryo!"
"I will prove that I, Xiao Hongchen, am the greatest genius of the Douluo Continent in ten thousand years—not some Huo Yuhao!"
"Just wait, Huo Yuhao. I will personally defeat you!"
Seeing Xiao Hongchen's manic determination, Master Ma furrowed his brows.
"Xiao Hongchen, isn't bidding two million at a time excessive? This…"
He wanted to say, "Even if your family has money, don't flaunt it like this!"
This was outrageous—money was practically falling like cabbage!
Ignoring Master Ma's doubts, Xiao Hongchen shook his head and sneered.
"This is to scare them off. If they dare to challenge me, I'll see if they truly have the ability!"
Ma Rulong spoke in a deep voice: "Spending this much money at once… is it really worth it?"
Xiao Hongchen, intoxicated by the lure of the ten-thousand-year Soul Beast embryo, replied without hesitation:
"Of course it's worth it!"
"Besides, I'm not spending the academy's funds. With this treasure, I could obtain Twin Martial Spirits—or a ten-thousand-year soul ring, or a soul bone."
"This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. How could I let it slip?"
Xiao Hongchen's words left Ma Rulong speechless, though Master Ma shot him a glare, and he dared not continue.
As time passed, the number 150 million Gold Soul Coins finally stopped climbing.
This astronomical figure was terrifying for any faction.
"Just as I expected, I've scared them all off."
In VIP Lounge 2, Xiao Hongchen snorted and turned to Master Ma.
"Master Ma, this treasure is a hot potato. Security during the transfer isn't guaranteed."
"Once the transaction is complete, take it back to our academy immediately and hand it to my great-grandfather. Once it's in Mingde Hall, let's see who dares touch it."
Listening to Xiao Hongchen's orders, Master Ma nodded.
"Don't worry, I'll return it via secret channels in Mingde Hall, Xingluo City."
"It will absolutely not be lost!"
…
VIP Lounge 1.
The Emperor of Xingluo listened as reports came in, his smile growing wider.
"150 million. Head of Mingde Hall, I hope you enjoy this gift from me."
He rose slowly, and the Spirit Conduction Screen in front of him split open, revealing a secret passage through which the emperor disappeared.
Secret passages in every VIP lounge opened simultaneously, allowing the guests involved in bidding to leave discreetly.
…
Morning. Sunny. Xingluo Square.
Huo Yuhao finished breakfast and stood at the window of the corridor, gazing into the distance at the sea of people in Xingluo Square.
A dense crowd, their noise audible even through the hotel window.
On the bed behind him, Qingya stirred slightly, still groggy. Huo Yuhao's first parting kiss was delivered.
"Qingya Jie, the competition is starting. I have to go."
"You stay here and rest well!"
Dressed in the Shrek Academy uniform, Huo Yuhao prepared to leap from the window when Qingya's reluctant voice rang out.
"Yuhao, will we… have the chance to meet again?"
Huo Yuhao didn't turn back. The sunlight shone on his face, and his figure looked majestic against the glow.
"Next spring, we shall meet again!"
With that, Huo Yuhao vanished.
Qingya sat on the bed, staring at the breeze fluttering the windowsill and curtains, her thoughts racing.
"Ding! Qingya's affection level increased to 100%!"
"Ding! Qingya's affection locked at 100%!"
"Ding! Congratulations host, Qingya is pregnant. Reward: one million-year Soul Ring!"
As the system's voice echoed, Huo Yuhao's face broke into a joyful smile.
"Qingya, this is a gift from me. I hope you like it!"
