After the Soul Master preliminaries, the promotion round would begin a month later. Although it would not be held in the Heaven Dou Great Soul Arena, it would still be held in Heaven Dou City.
During this period of rest, the participants of the various academies could adjust their condition and cultivate diligently to improve their strength before the promotion round.
Today's sun was especially bright and beautiful. The blue sky was clear and cloudless. The clear sky was like a slightly curved ocean-blue mirror. Occasionally, a few
birds would fly by. Heaven Dou City's Central Street was bustling with activity.
Pedestrians walked shoulder to shoulder, and shops on both sides of the street sold a dazzling array of goods. What a flourishing City.
A fifteen or sixteen-year-old youth walked calmly on the street, leisurely strolling around.
His black hair fluttered in the wind, and his body was slender and strong. He was dressed in black with a long black saber at his waist. His excessively handsome face attracted the coquettish glances of countless girls, but the youth kept a cold face and ignored the flirtatious looks around him.
This person was Fang Xuan.
During this period, he had accumulated a lot of wealth. With five to six million gold soul coins, he was now a millionaire. Therefore, he planned to spend some money and buy things that could increase his strength.
Whether it was herbs or weapons, as long as it could increase his strength, he would buy it!
Right now, what he needed the most was strength!
Fang Xuan first strolled along the streets of Heaven Dou City's famous blacksmiths. He wanted to buy some good swords, but he didn't find anything until the afternoon.
"A pile of scrap iron …"
Fang Xuan walked out of a famous blacksmith shop. He looked up at the blue sky and sighed. At this time, he missed Crazy 'Ole. The latter's swords could be called high-quality, but these so-called famous weapons were just a pile of scrap iron. He had no interest in them at all.
"I wonder how Crazy 'Ole is doing."
Fang Xuan hadn't seen Crazy 'Ole for more than a year since he parted ways with him. He wondered how he was doing.
Fang Xuan didn't know much about Crazy 'Ole. He didn't know how Crazy' Ole had offended the Spirit Hall. He had asked many times, but Crazy 'Ole kept silent and didn't reveal his secret.
Currently, the Spirit Hall was extremely powerful and had countless powerful soul masters under their command. Even the two Empires had to avoid them.
Crazy 'Ole had once killed a Titled Douluo of the Martial Spirit Hall, so he would be hunted down by the Spirit Hall in the future.
However, a Titled Douluo would be able to do whatever he wanted wherever he went. He didn't need a rookie like him to worry.
After sighing with emotion for a while, Fang Xuan left the smithy and prepared to visit some auctions to see if there were some good items.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
At this time, a vigorous figure suddenly dashed through the crowded street. Many passersby were knocked down by that tyrannical force. This was not a human, it was a bull.
"Out of the way! Step aside! Step aside! I'm in a hurry. I won't be responsible if I hurt anyone"
Before Fang Xuan could react, he smelled a fragrant wind. Then, a fiery red figure crashed into his chest.
"Huh?"
Soul power boiled like magma. A tyrannical aura erupted from Fang Xuan's body. It swept through the surroundings like a tornado and forcefully flipped this person over.
This was a red-haired girl. She was directly sent flying five or six meters by Fang Xuan's aura. Her butt hit the ground and she grimaced in pain. She looked at Fang Xuan angrily and scolded, "Damn it … It hurts. That bastard didn't have eyes"
"You didn't look where you were going and bumped into someone. How dare you scold him for not having eyes?"
Fang Xuan frowned. He really should have punched this girl. She didn't even have the strength to scold him.
"You …"
The red-haired girl pointed at Fang Xuan. Just as she was about to scold him, she suddenly stopped. She stared blankly at Fang Xuan as if she had seen a ghost.
Fang Xuan was also slightly stunned. He looked at this fiery girl speechlessly.
"Fang Xuan?"
"Huo Wu?"
The two looked at each other. Their faces were blank as they spoke at the same time.
Eh … What a coincidence. Why is it you again?
Fang Xuan was very depressed. Enemies didn't meet. He even bumped into Huo Wu when he was just casually shopping.
When enemies met, their eyes would turn red.
When Huo Wu saw that it was Fang Xuan, her beautiful eyes immediately lit fire. Perhaps it was an instinctive reaction, but she didn't say anything. She raised her fist and ruthlessly punched Fang Xuan.
Then, Fang Xuan punched her little head. She crouched down holding her head, tears welling up in her eyes.
"Ouch! It hurts. Fang Xuan, just you wait. I won't let you go"
Huo Wu was in so much pain that she crouched on the ground. A layer of mist appeared in her eyes. She rubbed her head in pain while pointing at Fang Xuan to threaten him.
"Don't provoke me. Otherwise, I'll beat you up!"
Fang Xuan glanced at Huo Wu indifferently. He waved his sandbag-like fist in front of the girl's face, causing the latter to turn green with anger.
Just as the two of them were about to draw their swords, another uninvited guest hurried over.
It was another beautiful girl. She was about sixteen or seventeen years old. She wore a long white dress, and her soft blue hair draped over her shoulders. She had a delicate face and an exquisite figure. Her temperament was elegant and otherworldly.
It was Shui Binger
"Huo Wu, Didn't I tell you to slow down? Why are you in such a hurry? There's still an hour before the auction starts. Why are you in such a hurry?"
Shui Bing'er's blue hair danced in the wind as she walked over leisurely. A hint of blame appeared on her pretty face as she glared at Huo Wu. Then, she extended her little hand to Huo Wu, who was still crouching on the ground.
"I just wanted to get a good seat in advance …" Huo Wu stuck out her tongue and gently grabbed Shui Bing'er's little hand. With the latter's help, she stood up.
After the competition, Shui Bing'er and Huo Wu became good friends. The two equally
outstanding genius girls talked about everything. They had become a pair of best friends.
"Eh? Fang Xuan, why are you here?"
At this time, Shui Bing'er noticed Fang Xuan beside her. A hint of surprise appeared on her face. She didn't expect to run into Fang Xuan on the street.
"Uh …"
Fang Xuan was depressed. He opened his mouth but didn't know what to say.
"Ice, you came at the right time. This guy hit me just now. Let's work together and teach this arrogant Fang Xuan a lesson"
Huo Wu had finally found a helper. She held tightly onto Shui Bing'er's hand, her body brimming with battle intent. She glared at Fang Xuan with hostility, ready to start a martial soul battle.
"What a coincidence. I was also hit by him just now. You will get used to it …" Shui Bing'er said calmly.
"Huh?"
Huo Wu's battle intent was immediately extinguished when she heard this. She stared at Aqua Ice with a strange expression. Was this girl's brain damaged? How could she be so calm after being hit?
"By the way, Fang Xuan, did you go out this time because you heard about that 'divine weapon' as well?"
Shui Bing'er looked curiously at Fang Xuan.
"Divine weapon? What divine weapon?!" Fang Xuan was stunned. He was puzzled.
"Two days ago, the Heaven Dou Auction House released a rumor that they've obtained a divine-grade treasure and will be auctioning it off today" Shui Bing'er explained.
"Divine weapon … divine weapon?"
Fang Xuan was dumbstruck.

Heaven Dou Auction House.
This was Heaven Dou City's number-one auction house. Located in the city center, the building was majestic and extravagant. It was said that the royal family owned a large portion of the auction house.
Thus, it was also known as the Heaven Dou Imperial Auction House.
"Let's go! Let's go! The auction is about to start … "
"I heard that there's a lot of good stuff in today's auction. Soul tools, immortal herbs, treasures … you name it."
"Haha, I'm looking forward to it."
A group of nobles dressed in luxurious robes hurried into the Heaven Dou Auction House amidst their chatter.
With the Heaven Dou Auction House's vigorous promotion, many people rushed over after hearing the news. Today's auction hadn't even started yet, but the place was already bustling with noise and excitement.
"So this is the Heaven Dou Auction House. It's as impressive as expected"
Fang Xuan stood at the entrance of the auction house, examining the luxurious and magnificent building. After a moment of hesitation, he stepped into the auction house.
Behind him, two beautiful girls, one red and one blue, were holding hands. They looked very intimate as they followed Fang Xuan into the Heaven Dou Auction House.
"Welcome"
As soon as they entered, an elegant female attendant came forward with a smile on her face. She warmly welcomed Fang Xuan, Huo Wu, and Shui Bing 'er.
"Esteemed guests, please follow me …"
Under the attendant's lead, they walked along the outer corridor and into the auction house.
The auction house was very spacious, enough to accommodate several thousand people. At this moment, the auction was in full swing. Looking around, one could see a sea of black and countless guests. There were no empty seats.
"Wow, why are there so many people?"
Huo Wu looked at the sea of people in the auction house with surprise. Although she knew that today's auction would be very lively, she didn't expect it to be this popular.
"Are there any seats left?"
A trace of worry appeared on Shui Bing'er's rosy cheeks. Her limpid eyes swept across the entire auction house, but there wasn't a single empty seat left.
"I'm sorry, but the ordinary seats are all taken …"
The female attendant brought Fang Xuan and the other two along the circular corridor of the venue. However, she realized that the seats were already fully occupied.
Even the corridor was filled with guests. There were no empty seats at all. She couldn't help but show an apologetic expression to the three of them.
"Are there no other spots?"
Fang Xuan asked with a frown. He'd heard from Shui Bing 'er that the Heaven Dou Auction House would be auctioning off a supreme treasure today. That was why he'd come all the way here, hoping to catch a glimpse of the treasure's true appearance. He hadn't expected that there wouldn't even be a seat available.
What should he do? Could it be that he had to return home just like that?
Fang Xuan was a little depressed.
"Well, there are a few VIP rooms on the second floor, but the price is a little …"
The waitress had an official smile on her face as she looked inquisitively at Fang Xuan and the others.
The Heaven Dou Auction House was the number one auction house in Heaven Dou City. Just the entrance fee alone was a hundred gold soul coins. Ordinary seats cost five hundred gold soul coins, and VIP rooms cost more than a thousand gold soul coins.
There was nothing he could do about it. This auction was targeted at the upper echelons of society. It was extremely high-end, similar to a five-star hotel. Even an ordinary glass of red wine cost ten gold soul coins.
However, Fang Xuan was now sitting on a net worth of millions. He did not care about this small amount of money. He calmly stared at the waitress and said confidently, "Lead the way"
"Oh. Fang Xuan, what's wrong with you today? Why are you so generous? Don't tell me you stole money from somewhere?"
Shui Bing 'er was astonished. She looked at Fang Xuan in disbelief. Based on her understanding of Fang Xuan, Fang Xuan should have turned around and left the moment he heard the exorbitant price.
But now, he was facing it head-on.
Unbelievable.
Shui Bing'er seriously suspected that Fang Xuan had gone to steal money.
"Tch"
Fang Xuan couldn't be bothered with the girl's disdainful gaze. He puffed out his chest and strode toward the VIP room on the second floor.
In a luxurious VIP room on the second floor's corridor.
"Guests, please"
The waitress stood respectfully at the door and gestured for Fang Xuan and the others to enter.
The three of them looked at each other and raised their feet, preparing to enter the VIP room.
"Wait"
A cold shout suddenly sounded. A golden-haired youth dressed in luxurious clothes walked over slowly with a paper fan in his hand. He glanced indifferently at Fang Xuan and said coldly, "This room was chosen by this young master first. Where did this country bumpkin come from? Why aren't you getting lost?"
Fang Xuan frowned and glanced at the golden-haired youth without saying anything. He could see through the youth's cultivation at a glance. He was only a Soul Grandmaster.
Just a piece of trash.
Maybe he was some rich playboy from some family.
"Hey, bastard, what did you say? We were the ones who came to this room first. Don't you know the rules of first come, first served?" Huo Wu had a fiery temper. She put her hands on her hips and glared at the golden-haired youth.
Shui Bing 'er also frowned slightly. She looked at the golden-haired youth with some dissatisfaction and remained silent.
"Aiyo! What cute little beauties, and they're even a pair. One cold and the other hot. It makes me heartburn. Haha, this young man didn't come here in vain. I'll catch you two back to warm my bed"
The golden-haired youth noticed Shui Bing 'er and Huo Wu behind Fang Xuan. His eyes immediately lit up.
His pockmarked face revealed a perverted smile as he reached out to touch Shui Bing'er's cheek.
"Boom"
At this moment, Fang Xuan's eyes turned cold. His right fist suddenly blasted out. Wrapped in a fierce force, it shook the void and fiercely smashed into the golden-haired youth's face. The bridge of his nose caved in.
"Ah …"
The golden-haired youth's entire face caved in. His nose was broken and blood spurted out. He let out a mournful scream as he was sent flying by the terrifying force. Like a kite with its string cut, he was sent flying and heavily crashed into the wall at the end of the corridor.
"What's going on? What happened?"
A violent collision sound came from the second floor, quickly attracting the attention of the auction guests.
Puzzled gazes followed the source of the sound and finally locked onto the battered and exhausted golden-haired youth.
"Eh, isn't this the son of Earl Oakland, Olly …"
"Haha, looks like he's been beaten up quite badly."
"I don't know which daring fellow dared to beat up the son of an earl. There's going to be a good show to watch now."
Everyone was very interested and discussed animatedly. They felt that a good show was about to begin.
"Guests, you've caused a great disaster. This noble young master's identity is not ordinary. He's the son of an earl. You'd better leave quickly."
The waitress looked somewhat anxious. Seeing Fang Xuan send the golden-haired youth flying with one punch, her small face revealed a worried expression.
She kindly advised Fang Xuan and the others to leave.
"The Earl's … son?"
Fang Xuan was slightly startled, and a strange look appeared on his face. He turned around to look at Shui Bing 'er and Huo Wu and found that the two women's expressions were also strange. They were looking at him with a faint smile as if they were waiting to watch a good show.
At this time, the golden-haired youth, who had just been sent flying, struggled to get up from the ground. His blood-stained face revealed a trace of malevolence. He stared fiercely at Fang Xuan and coldly threatened.
"Damn bastard, you dare hit me? My father is the honorable Count of the Empire. You arrogant bastard dared to hit me. You're finished. Just wait for your death. I'll have my father report this to the Emperor. He'll execute your entire family and nine generations of your family"
Fang Xuan walked forward expressionlessly. His left hand lifted Olly like a chicken, and his right hand aimed at Olly's face and slapped him fiercely.
"Yours is just an earl. My father is the Emperor!!"
