Chapter 38: Inhuman Experience Wang Teng and Lang Ya walked side by side, the two followed Su Mu in tacit understanding, shuttled through the bustling streets, and headed towards Tianhun City’s most famous landmark - Tianhun Auction House. The sunlight shone through the gauze-like clouds, casting patches of light on them. As he followed Su Mu, Wang Teng couldn't help but have some subtle thoughts in his mind. He glanced sideways at Su Mu beside him, and saw that Su Mu had a slender figure, and every step he took was steady and graceful, with an indescribable dignity and composure revealed in his every move. It’s just that his demeanor is not like that of an ordinary person. Even among the Tianhun royal family, their every move is not as elegant as Su Mu’s. What is even more unexpected is that this strong man treats every pedestrian on the road, even the street vendors, with an almost excessive politeness and humility. "It's really funny. It turns out she was serious about leaving late because she was afraid of the crowds on the road. What’s the difference between this and queuing up to buy groceries in a Maybach in the previous life?” Wang Teng muttered to himself, whether in the original novel or on the mainland, he had seen too many examples of strong people who were arrogant because of their high self-esteem. On the contrary, the Titled Douluo are relatively humble. Except for those who are a little arrogant or have conflicts in private, they are more respectful than each other when they meet. Sure enough, those who are too pretentious are all clowns, and the big guys are all keeping a low profile. This contrast of Su Mu undoubtedly left a deep impression on him.
Even when a child looked at this beautiful sister curiously, Su Mu always responded with a sweet smile. Oh my god, Wang Teng has diabetes. "Perhaps, this is the true style of a strong man." Wang Teng thought to himself, and he had a little more respect for Su Mu. The moment he stepped into the Tianhun City Auction Hall, Wang Teng suddenly had the illusion of entering another world. Here, even the air is filled with the faint scent of high-quality spices driven by soul power. The elevator slowly climbed to the top floor of the auction hall in an almost floating posture. This level of soul guide technology was actually only used by the Tianhun Empire to improve its status. Wang Teng secretly complained that it was a waste of resources. As the heavy wooden door with gold edges gently opened, a dazzling golden light and a luxurious atmosphere instantly hit Wang Teng in the face, causing him to hold his breath involuntarily. Inside, every detail exudes the taste of money. The walls were inlaid with patterns made up of rare gems, which sparkled under the light, making Wang Teng want to just take them off. The central chandelier was built by a top soul master himself. It not only emits a soft and bright light, but also faintly reveals a fluctuation of soul power, adding a bit of mystery and elegance to the entire space. Lang Ya seemed to have seen this many times. He didn't even look at it and went straight to the lounge. "I'm so hungry, let's eat first. Sumu only drank your tea just now, when can he eat the meal you cooked?" Lang Ya shouted as he walked to the buffet area. Can you eat at the auction house? In his previous life, Wang Teng only knew that he could eat in the VIP lounge at the airport. He also followed Lang Ya to the dining area. On the dining table, all kinds of delicacies are displayed like works of art, which are dazzling. Meat dishes, just by feeling the huge fluctuations of soul power, you can roughly guess what the ingredients are. The meat of high-level soul beasts is carefully cut into thin slices, each of which contains soul power. And those vegetables made from plant soul beasts as the main ingredients are even more colorful and crystal clear. Su Mu just chatted with the staff for a few words, and when he turned around, he saw Wang Teng and Lang Ya already eating heartily. "I'm not saying, you two brothers, you can eat slowly when the auction starts.
Why are you in such a hurry? There will be some special fruits and dairy products later, which I highly recommend. I'm full now, so don't look uncomfortable later." Su Mu didn't think they were embarrassing, he just watched with a smile from the side. Wang Teng raised his head from the plate and looked at Lang Ya, "Fuck, Senior Brother, what she said makes sense." Su Mu gently took the auction list handed over by the staff and flipped through it casually. "Oh, this is so troublesome. There are too many words. You can ask someone to go to the private room and introduce it to me. I won't read this for now." Su Mu looked at the thick introduction of the auction items and felt like crying but had no tears. Wang Teng next to him was already somewhat used to it. He just wanted to know all the information about the auction items in advance. Did the krypton gold tycoon want information? He wanted the pleasure of spending a lot of money! According to the staff, Su Mu is not only a frequent visitor to the Tianhun City Auction House, but also a VIP among its distinguished VIPs. She enjoys the highest level of treatment, and all the services on this entire floor are prepared for her. What shocked Wang Teng even more was that the prerequisite for Su Mu to obtain this super supreme membership was that, based on his personal identity alone, his cumulative consumption at the Tianhun City Auction House reached an astonishing figure of 10 million gold soul coins. This number is undoubtedly astronomical for ordinary people. If done properly, the money Su Mu spent at this auction alone would be enough to buy several level nine fixed-type soul guide shells. In the world of Douluo II, even an Extreme Douluo would have to stay away from this thing. Wait, Su Mu doesn't already have it, right? Wang Teng stood aside, his heart filled with shock and emotion. The world of the rich is so wonderful. After a short rest in the lounge, the three of them went directly from the lounge and walked into the private room on the top floor. The private room is located behind the auction hall. It is built in the air at the top and is covered with single-sided glass on all sides. This kind of glass that provides a one-way view is also the effect of the core magic array of the soul guide. In the center of the auction table, a regular auctioneer in an ordinary suit stood there, introducing the various small items in the warm-up session one by one. Although these items are not rare treasures, they are also unique. From exquisite handicrafts to rare exotic collections, each one carries a unique story and charm. Their starting prices are generally low, and some even use Gintama coins as the unit of measurement. Wang Teng originally thought that such an opening was just an insignificant prelude to a strong man like Su Mu. After all, their world is often closely connected with natural treasures and top-level soul bones. However, Su Mu showed unexpected interest. She listened very carefully and even commented on each one with Lang Ya beside her. When the auctioneer announced the start of the auction for a jade pendant with a simple shape and a faint spiritual aura, Su Mu's eyes lit up. She raised her hand slightly, signaling the exclusive waiter beside her, who was wearing a crimson suit and had an extraordinary temperament, to bid on her behalf. Wang Teng’s admiration is beyond words. Look, this is what true low-key means. She could obviously buy it directly, but she raised the price by five gold soul coins at a time and happily played with you. Newcomer, new book, please support~ (End of this chapter)
