Chapter 160: Everyone's Shock
"We have found a soul spirit that meets your requirements. It's the 90,000-year-level Crimson Flame Divine Tiger soul spirit, but the price is a bit high. The price is 500 million gold soul coins."
Ling Yun's voice echoed in the hall, causing a small stir among the crowd.
"This price is still worth it, as this Crimson Flame Divine Tiger will bring you three 90,000-year-level soul rings, assuming everything goes well."
At this moment, Ling Yun released the Crimson Flame Divine Tiger.
"Boom!"
In an instant, a massive wave of fiery power spread, as if a volcano had erupted. The intense heat swept through the entire auction hall.
Everyone's eyes were fixed on the soul spirit. The Crimson Flame Divine Tiger stood proudly, its eyes filled with an innate aura of authority.
The Crimson Flame Divine Tiger had a powerful bloodline! If its strength reached 100,000 years, the flames within it could potentially evolve into the Extreme Fire.
It could be said that this spirit beast was one of the strongest among fire attribute beasts, almost a king among fire element spirit beasts.
"Good, we'll take this Crimson Flame Divine Tiger soul spirit,"
Yan Shaozhe said without hesitation, his voice firm and powerful.
Upon hearing this price, Shrek Academy also made no hesitation. They immediately paid the 500 million gold soul coins and purchased the Crimson Flame Divine Tiger soul spirit.
After all, what Ling Yun had said was true—paying 500 million gold soul coins would grant them three extremely powerful 90,000-year soul rings.
For Shrek Academy, which was eager to improve its strength, this was an opportunity not to be missed.
"Since you may not be familiar with the process of absorbing a soul spirit, you'll need to absorb it on-site, and we, the Star Auction Hall, will help you absorb the complete soul spirit without any damage."
After receiving the 500 million gold soul coins, Ling Yun handed the Crimson Flame Divine Tiger soul spirit to Shrek Academy and continued.
"Go ahead."
Elder Xuan handed the soul spirit to Ma Xiaotao, speaking slowly, his eyes filled with encouragement and trust.
After receiving the soul spirit, Ma Xiaotao took a deep breath. A hint of nervousness flashed in her eyes, but more than that, there was a desire for powerful strength.
She stepped forward with firm steps, directly heading toward the auction stage.
"Don't worry, there won't be any danger during the absorption of the soul spirit. Are you ready? The absorption process will begin now."
Ling Yun looked at the nervous Ma Xiaotao, then spoke gently, her voice calming Ma Xiaotao's previously tense emotions.
"Alright, I'm ready,"
Ma Xiaotao said after taking a deep breath.
She knew this would be an important step in improving her strength and a key opportunity to move toward greater power.
Ling Yun's expression grew solemn. Once she saw Ma Xiaotao's soul power circulating and her preparation complete, she waved her right hand gracefully, full of strength.
The Crimson Flame Divine Tiger's soul spirit, like a ball of dancing flames, slowly entered Ma Xiaotao's body, bringing with it intense heat.
"Boom!"
At the same time, Ling Yun swiftly formed hand seals, her fingers tracing mysterious paths in the air.
Following the secret contract technique passed down by the Auction Hall's master, as soul power surged like a tidal wave, a mysterious and powerful force gathered around them.
In an instant, the light beneath Ma Xiaotao's feet intensified, and an extremely complex formation slowly appeared.
The symbols on the formation shimmered like the stars, emitting a terrifying pressure that made the heart race.
The moment the formation was completed, Ma Xiaotao's soul power resonated with the Crimson Flame Divine Tiger's soul spirit.
As time passed, the soul spirit transformed into a beam of light, dazzling with brilliance, slowly merging into Ma Xiaotao's body.
"Boom!"
Next, a powerful and domineering aura burst from Ma Xiaotao's body.
Her second martial soul—the Yan Huang Tianlong, appeared unconsciously.
The roar of the dragon echoed throughout the sky, the sound both regal and loud, as if it could shatter the heavens.
The dragon's roar contained boundless majesty and power, making everyone in the hall shudder involuntarily.
"This is the final auction item from the first Star Auction Hall auction, the Extreme Fire martial soul? I didn't expect Shrek Academy to be so generous and let their student absorb it."
A soul master in the crowd widened his eyes, his face filled with shock.
"It seems that this woman's future achievements are limitless, after all, she has dual martial souls and one of them is the Extreme Fire martial soul."
Another soul master, with admiration and awe in his eyes, shook his head and sighed.
The crowd looked at Ma Xiaotao's second martial soul, feeling the powerful fire element emanating from it, and everyone's face showed shock.
The Yan Huang Tianlong was surrounded by blazing fire, the flames glowing a strange purple hue, radiating a suffocating heat.
Wherever it passed, the air seemed to distort.
Unfortunately, at this moment, aside from a few people from Shrek Academy, most of the other forces on Douluo Continent didn't know that Ma Xiaotao's first martial soul had also benefited from the Yan Huang Tianlong and had evolved into the true Extreme Fire martial soul.
In other words, Ma Xiaotao was now not only a dual martial soul possessor, but both of her martial souls were top-tier Extreme Fire martial souls.
"Whoosh!"
A burst of red light shot out from Ma Xiaotao's body, and it was the Crimson Flame Divine Tiger soul spirit that had just merged into her.
At this moment, the Crimson Flame Divine Tiger soul spirit had become even more lively, its fiery patterns shimmering with strange light.
Soon after, Ma Xiaotao's second martial soul manifested three soul rings, each of them pitch black, as deep as the endless night.
Moreover, the patterns on the soul rings now had noticeable red markings, indicating that each of these rings was close to the 100,000-year level.
"Unbelievable!"
A roar of shock erupted from the crowd, filled with disbelief and fervor.
"Does this mean that the last 100,000-year soul spirit from this auction really can generate four 100,000-year soul rings?"
Another voice, trembling with excitement, echoed throughout the auction hall.
Everyone was deeply shaken as they witnessed Ma Xiaotao absorbing the soul spirit and obtaining three 90,000-year soul rings.
They became even more eager to see the final auction item.
"Huh?"
At this moment, Ma Xiaotao's eyes widened in surprise as she looked at the Crimson Flame Divine Tiger soul spirit on her shoulder, feeling the affection it transmitted to her.
Especially when she saw the three 90,000-year soul rings on her second martial soul, she couldn't help but break into a brilliant smile, feeling immense joy.
She marveled in her heart, never expecting the soul spirit to be so powerful. Not only had she obtained three 90,000-year soul abilities, but she could also command the soul spirit to fight alongside her!
This was truly amazing, as if a whole new door to power had opened before her.
