Chapter 90

Second update, please follow and give recommendations.

-----------------------------------------

Eating, studying, and class promotion matches.

The day passed quickly. However, Tang Wulin and his two companions were pointed at and talked about many times during the day, naturally because of yesterday's door-blocking incident.

What puzzled many people was that Tang Wulin and his two companions did not receive any punishment from the school, everything was as usual, as if nothing had happened.

More students gathered around Wu Changkong, and even many teachers joined in. Yesterday's battle elevated the reputation of the cold and proud man in the school to a higher level; he was no longer just the idol of the girls but the idol of the entire school.

But Wu Changkong himself had no reaction to all of this, remaining the same as always.

In the match against the second class of the first year after school, Tang Wulin, Gu Yue, and Xie Xie did not exert much effort. The opponent only had one soul master with a yellow hundred-year soul ring. Facing the coordination of Tang Wulin and his two companions, they had no way to counter. Xie Xie, with the support of Gu Yue's firepower, easily defeated the opponent.

Three wins in three battles, plus yesterday's door-blocking incident, the fifth class of the first year finally became the focus of attention.

Tomorrow is a rest day, and after the rest day, they will face the challenge of the first class of the first year. Each grade's first class is completely different from other classes, as it gathers the most outstanding geniuses of the year. At least in the past twenty years, there has been no record of a first-year first class being defeated by a subsequent class in the promotion matches at Donghai Academy.

After dinner, Tang Wulin and Xie Xie were about to return to the dormitory when they were stopped by Gu Yue.

"What are you two going to do tomorrow? Come clean, or else don't blame me for being unfriendly to you." Gu Yue put her hands on her hips, looking very fierce. Although she was not particularly beautiful, she was quite handsome, and this appearance made people unable to help but laugh.

"Why should we tell you what we're going to do?" Xie Xie snorted.

Gu Yue pouted and said, "I heard your conversation while you were eating. You're going out tomorrow, and it's fine if you don't tell me. I'll go find Teacher Wu and ask him for extra practice. Neither of you will be able to run away tomorrow. We're going to face the first class anyway, so it's the best time for extra practice."

"Why are you so annoying?" Xie Xie glared at Gu Yue with wide eyes.

Gu Yue coldly snorted, "So what if I'm annoying? Are you going to tell me or not?"

Tang Wulin quickly tried to smooth things over, "Gu Yue, I just want Xie Xie to take me to the auction tomorrow. I've never been there before."

Gu Yue smiled, "Okay, then let's go together."

Xie Xie looked at her with disgust, "Who wants to go with you? This is a man's business."

Gu Yue said, "I didn't say I wanted to go with you. Looking at your face, I'll just go with Wu Lin."

Xie Xie looked at her in confusion, then at Tang Wulin, who, though only nine years old, was already very handsome, and said, "You're not falling for Wu Lin, are you? How old are you? You're developing too early."

"Do you want to die?" Gu Yue raised her hand, and an ice ball flew toward him. Xie Xie hurriedly dodged, "Ha ha, I hit the nail on the head, didn't I? I'll tell Teacher Wu that you're not behaving well at such a young age."

"If you want to die, I'll help you." Gu Yue pounced, her hands glowing, chasing after Xie Xie.

Tang Wulin watched the two with a helpless look, having long been accustomed to their playful fighting, he could only raise his hands and step out of the fight.

In the end, the next morning, the three of them set out together. Xie Xie had planned to get up early to shake off Gu Yue, but he didn't succeed. Gu Yue was waiting for him at the dormitory door.

"Xie Xie, where is the auction?" As they walked, Tang Wulin asked curiously.

Xie Xie glanced at Gu Yue, who was smiling beside him, "It's at the Donghai Museum! Our city's auction house is jointly operated with the museum. The museum has a dedicated auction item display area, which holds regular auctions. We can just go to the display area to see, and there will be a notice about when the auction starts."

Gu Yue asked Tang Wulin curiously, "Wu Lin, why did you suddenly want to go to the auction house? I've never seen you interested in this before!"

Tang Wulin said, "I just had a sudden urge. Let's just go and take a look."

The Donghai Museum is located in the southern part of the city center, a cluster of ancient buildings. It consists of a main building and two annex buildings.

The main building displays various rare soul beast specimens, historical artifacts of Donghai City, and items from different eras.

The left annex building is the auction display area that Xie Xie mentioned, and the auction hall is on the upper floors of the main building.

The annex building where the auction display area is located does not require a ticket and can be entered directly. There are many people coming to view the items.

The annex building has four floors, and although it is an annex, it is quite large, with a width of about 200 meters from the outside.

As the second largest city in the eastern coastal region, Donghai City has only one auction house, and its scale is considerable. From the first to the fourth floor, all are auction item display areas, divided by different categories and levels. Of course, some particularly rare and expensive items are displayed in special areas, not accessible to everyone.

As soon as they entered, the three of them saw a large sign indicating that the first floor of the auction display area is divided into two major zones: the soul conductor zone and the non-soul conductor zone. The soul conductor zone is further divided into areas such as the rare metal zone and the soul conductor finished product zone.

"Which side should we go to first?" Xie Xie vaguely guessed that Tang Wulin had a purpose for coming to the auction house, so he asked him directly.

Tang Wulin said, "Let's go to the non-soul conductor zone. I want to see if there are any auctions for the two spirit fruits I told you about that day."

"Spirit fruits? What kind of spirit fruits do you want?" Gu Yue asked curiously.

Tang Wulin said, "I don't want them, I'm just curious and want to take a look." Although Xie Xie and Gu Yue were his friends, the matter of the Golden Dragon King was too shocking, and he knew that such a secret could not be revealed.

"Then let's go and take a look." Xie Xie, who had clearly been here before, led the two of them into the auction display area with ease.

Around them were large glass cases, displaying many things that Tang Wulin had never heard of. The cheapest items started at 100,000 federal coins. These glass cases were made of special transparent alloys, not ordinary glass.

"This is the spirit fruit area, you can look around yourself." After arriving at a spacious rectangular room, Xie Xie stopped.

This room was about 300 square meters, displaying various spirit fruits and rare plants. Each type of spirit fruit had a label outside.
