Douluo Continent: Become stronger by stealing Tang San's luck!

Chapter 1010 Overpowering the Entire Audience

It's unclear whether Qiao Na's words were meant to comfort Tang Lan and Qiao Na, or to comfort herself.

"340,000 for the first time! 340,000 for the second time! 300,000!"

"Five hundred thousand!"

Just as the host, Sang Sang, was about to announce the third sale price of 330,000 to 340,000, Tang Lan's voice suddenly echoed in the silent auction hall.

At the same time, Tang Lan had already raised her bidding paddle.

Everyone turned to look at Tang Lan and the other two.

Upon seeing this, Sang Sang on the stage revealed a look of ecstatic joy, and immediately said, "Now please confirm whether your bid is 500,000 gold soul coins."

"If confirmed, we will continue the bidding process and, based on your bid, wait for other bidders."

Sangsang looked at Tang Lan with some uncertainty.

This has happened more than once at auctions in the past.

The auctioneer impulsively bid a price far exceeding the bidding threshold, then later regretted it, claiming he had no money, causing considerable trouble for the auctioneer.

Auction houses these days have really gotten smarter.

Bidders must nod to confirm that their bids are valid before the next step of the process can proceed.

Sang Sang's voice quickly sparked another wave of cheers from the crowd.

Sangsang smiled and announced:

"So, is there anyone else bidding on the Soul Tool 'Hand of Mixed Gold'?"

"Five hundred thousand for the first time, five hundred thousand for the second time, five hundred thousand for the third time."

However, at that moment, a very discordant sound suddenly came from not far away.

"Wait a minute, I'll offer 530,000!"

It was a woman's voice, and the voice came from seat number 35 in the yellow section.

Tang Lan turned her head and looked towards the corner behind her, where she saw a mysterious woman dressed in black with a hoodie holding up a bidding paddle.

"Huh? Who is this person?! She's willing to pay such a high price!"

Lin Ni turned to look at the person behind her and exclaimed in surprise.

Auction houses do not allow bidders to talk in such settings; otherwise, they will be met with malicious competition and provocation from other bidders.

"Maybe we should just forget about it; this is already beyond our budget."

Jona, who was standing nearby, also spoke up to comfort her.

"It's okay!"

Tang Lan shook her head, then raised her bidding paddle again and announced, "Six hundred thousand!"

hiss~~~

Upon hearing this, a series of gasps of astonishment rippled through the audience.

Everyone was speculating whether the two would engage in a bidding war, with one side ultimately emerging victorious after a fierce competition.

Unexpectedly, Tang Lan had no intention of continuing the game with the other side and directly raised the price by 70,000 gold soul coins.

"Six hundred thousand is valid! Sir/Madam, would you like to increase your offer?"

Sangsang was clearly startled by Tang Lan's price, and then turned to look at the masked woman in black at the back.

Silence. The entire auction hall was completely silent.

Many people were secretly clamoring, feeling that Tang and Lan should continue their rivalry, which would make for a good show for everyone.

But after a long silence, the masked woman behind her spoke up: "I withdraw from the auction!"

These words immediately caused an uproar in the audience; no one expected that this person would give up so easily.

It was completely different from the defiant and competitive spirit they had shown just moments before.

At the same time, the host, Sang Sang, announced with a smile: "Then let's congratulate our esteemed guest number sixteen for winning this gold-plated hand."

"Now, please welcome the next item to the auction!"

"This item is called the Golden Lion Seal. Sending this soul tool will unleash a powerful attack equivalent to a full-force strike from a seventh-tier Soul Saint."

The subsequent auction items no longer aroused any interest in Tang Lan.

Fortunately, after about 15 minutes, the three of them got up and left, and led by the pretty staff member, went to the back-end registration desk of Wanbaoge.

After paying 600,000 gold soul coins, the other party handed Tang Lan a palm-sized brocade box.

After opening the box and glancing at it, Tang Lan handed the brocade box to Qiao Na after confirming that the contents were genuine.

"You, what are you doing?"

Jona looked at the gold-plated hand inside the brocade box, feeling both surprised and excited.

But when she came to her senses, she realized something: Tang Lan didn't seem to be very interested in this thing.

Could it be that Tang Lan bought this expensive auxiliary soul tool just to give it to himself?

The latest novel is first published here!

For a moment, Jona was in a state of confusion, and her mind began to make wild guesses.

As the saying goes, no one gets up early without a reason, and she didn't believe that Tang Lan would give her such an expensive gift for no reason.

Could it be that Tang Lan likes her? That's even more impossible, not to mention that the two have only known each other for a few days and have only met a handful of times.

The age difference between the two alone is enough to inspire awe.

That's absolutely impossible.

Just as Qiao Na was in a state of confusion and making wild guesses, Tang Lan spoke up:

"The Tang Sect is currently lacking a high-level Soul Master to oversee things. If Qiao Na is willing, the Tang Sect can unconditionally support all your expenses in Soul Tool research and development."

"This is the Tang Clan's rules and regulations manual. I think you'll find it interesting after reading it."

As Tang Lan spoke, she tossed a small booklet to Qiao Na.

Lin Ni, who was standing nearby, also leaned over to take a closer look.

After a long pause, Jona finally spoke, "The Tang Sect is truly a magical sect, and also a place that's impossible to refuse!"

"Alright, since that's the case, I'll agree to your offer and become an elder in the Tang Sect's Soul Tool Research and Development Department."

"I will discuss this matter with Dingdel. I believe he will be very interested in the Tang Clan."

Qiao Na looked at Tang Lan and said with a smile.

Her cheeks were still slightly flushed. Thinking about the scenes of her wild thoughts just now, Jona really wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

However, Jona quickly recovered thanks to her strong mental fortitude.

"Sir, you have spent 500,000 Gold Soul Coins at the auction today, qualifying you to attend our premium auction in the VIP auction hall!"

Soon, a beautiful woman in a white cheongsam came forward and respectfully introduced herself to Tang Lan and the other two.

Tang Lan glanced at the woman and asked, "Can my two friends come along?"

"Yes, each of our Level 2 VIPs has the right to bring three attendants or friends."

The woman explained with a smile.

This smile was like a gentle breeze, very approachable, completely different from the guides I had seen at the auction.

Upon closer inspection, one would find that this woman's appearance was in no way inferior to that of Tang Ya and the others.

Lin Ni, standing next to Tang Lan, could only manage a draw with this woman.

"You're probably not just a regular staff member here!"

Tang Lan looked the woman up and down before asking her a question.

"Sir, your insight is excellent. You guessed correctly; I am not an ordinary staff member here!" (End of Chapter)
