Chapter 137: 154. Xue Xing's Little Fetish
With Yu Yuanzhen's defeat, Bibi Dong immediately stood up and announced the results of the reselection. The new Upper Three Sects were: Body Sect, Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, and Dragon Elephant Sect.
Yu Yuanzhen returned to his seat with a bitter expression.
Bibi Dong quickly continued, "Next, we will proceed with the reselection of the Lower Four Sects. The Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect will temporarily defend the position of the lead among the Lower Four."
Yu Yuanzhen stood and said to Bibi Dong, "Your Holiness, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect can only be among the Upper Three. If not, then I would rather not take the lead among the Lower Four."
Having spoken, he then said to the Dragon Elephant Sect, "Dragon Elephant Sect, in the future, my Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect will reclaim the glory that belongs to us."
With that, he left with his followers.
With the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's withdrawal, Spirit Hall continued the reselection of the Lower Four, which ultimately were: Wind Sword Sect, Fire Leopard Sect, Rock Antelope Sect, and Black Tiger Sect.
After completing the sect rankings on Douluo Continent, Bibi Dong ordered her subordinates to reforged the Papal Orders and presented them to the three Upper Three Sect masters.
The new Papal Orders removed elements of the Clear Sky Hammer and Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon martial souls, replacing them with the image of a Body Sect member—a white dragon.
With the establishment of the new order, the sect masters bid farewell and departed.
Ning Fengzhi felt deeply emotional about the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's elimination.
"I didn't expect the Old Dragon King Yu Yuanzhen to be unable to defeat those two from the Dragon Elephant Sect," Ning Fengzhi said.
Gu Rong sneered, "As far as I know, Yu Yuanzhen wasted decades teaching that useless Xiaogang, which stalled his cultivation at level 95. If he had spent those years training himself to advance a rank, things would be different now."
"Ning Fengzhi shook his head, "Yu Yuanzhen's actions really weren't wise."
"In the end, the Upper Three is just a title; true strength lies in foundation. Now, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect's position is temporarily taken by the Dragon Elephant Sect, but don't forget Yu Yuanzhen still has a son," Chen Xin said. "That boy has the Golden Holy Dragon martial soul and will become a Titled Douluo in a few years. Then, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect will have two Titled Douluo."
"That's true," Ning Fengzhi nodded.
Seeing the Body Sect's group preparing to leave, Ning Fengzhi hurriedly approached, "Sect Master Huo, I would like to invite you to visit the Heavenly Dou Empire for a talk. Might I have the honor?"
Huo Qiqiang first allowed the Body Sect members to return to their sect, then said, "Sect Master Ning extends a warm invitation—how can I refuse? I will follow you."
Heavenly Dou Royal Auction
This auction was partially funded by the royal family, hence bearing the royal title.
Only nobility could participate.
The auctioneer presented item after item—rare soul bones, finely crafted armor, soul beast pets, and more.
After an earl's purchase of the previous item, next came a red silk-wrapped iron cage.
The auctioneer announced, "Next lot: a rare slave."
The red silk slowly fell away, revealing the iron cage inside. A girl with her neck, hands, and feet shackled by iron chains sat inside. Her delicate skin was covered in whip scars, each a vivid red wound.
Yet those scars, like burns on tender skin, possessed a broken kind of beauty.
More captivatingly, the girl had a pair of cat ears and a cat tail. She sat cross-legged; her eyes had lost their light.
"Due to an accident during her martial soul awakening, this slave accidentally gained the ability of permanent martial soul possession. As you see, she has a pair of cat ears and a cat tail."
"At first, she was wild and untamed, but our slave hunting team soon tamed her completely. Look at those obedient cat ears, and that tail," the auctioneer said, fondly touching her features. "Normal women may satisfy your desires, but she can fulfill what they cannot. Now, I declare the auction for the cat-eared slave girl officially open, starting at 200,000 gold soul coins."
The nobles present had experienced countless women; they always sought something novel. Who could resist a temptress with beast ears?
They began bidding rapidly, soon pushing the price beyond one million gold soul coins.
"Two million." Prince Xue Xing stood, raising his bidding paddle.
His threatening gaze swept the other bidders, conveying a clear message: this beast-eared girl was claimed by the prince.
Seeing the prince enter the bid, many nobles lost their courage and ceased bidding.
"Two million once, two million twice."
Prince Xue Xing felt giddy inside, already considering the girl in the cage his possession.
But just before the auctioneer brought down his hammer, a gentle voice came from the corner: "Three million."
"Who dares to steal my prey? I'll make you pay!" the prince fumed, nostrils flaring as he glared at the voice's source.
When his gaze met Ning Fengzhi's, the prince instantly receded.
It couldn't be helped—though the prince occupied a lofty position in the Heavenly Dou Empire, when facing these super sects with their Titled Douluos, he was nothing.
Reluctantly, the prince gave up the bid. But his gaze remained fixed on the cat-eared girl in the cage.
Knowing Ning Fengzhi's nature, the prince suspected the slave would likely be freed after purchase and told the slave hunting team to keep an eye on her.
"Three million once, three million twice, three million thrice, sold!" The auctioneer's hammer fell. The young cat-eared girl was now Ning Fengzhi's.
