Soul Land V: Rebirth of Tang San-Chapter 969 - 967: Four Days Accompaniment
Tang San and the others in VIP Room No.8 didn’t make any further bids, as if having merely stirred up the atmosphere was their mission completed. Similarly, the Dragon Clan in the Tenth VIP Room also remained remarkably silent, not participating in any of the subsequent auctions. There were still many items that warranted the attention of the VIP rooms, with different powerhouses having varied needs. Not a single item went unsold.
By the afternoon, when items suitable for the development of the Human Clan appeared, such as treasures that could improve the purity of Energy, Tang San would place bids and buy them. These purchases were preparations for continuing to create Elemental Seas in the human world in the future. However, the majority of the items at this super auction were weapons, equipment, or treasures that could be directly absorbed to enhance one’s innate talents. There weren’t many of these kinds of items.
Nevertheless, when the daytime auction ended and it was time for a break in the afternoon, the overall amount spent by VIP Room No.8, where Tang San was, ranked first. The wealth of the Blue Golden Tree Clan once again caught the attention of strong figures from various Races.
"Let’s go, let’s collect the items we’ve won over the past two days." Tang San stood up and headed out.
Several Elders hurriedly got up to follow, with the Great Elder whispering by his side, "About the Dragon Clan, could there be…"
"No worries." Tang San waved his hand, signaling that there would be nothing to worry about. With so many Emperors present, and in the Ancestral Court no less, the Dragon Clan wouldn’t dare to harm them here, no matter how displeased they might be. Not to mention that Xu An Yu had not yet become the Crystal City Master; even if he had, both sides should be considered equals within the Ancestral Court.
Stepping out of the VIP room, the corridor outside was already bustling with noise. Compared to the first day, the fatigue of the bidders was evidently greater. Staying in a cramped space for two days was definitely not pleasant, but participating in this super auction was a rare opportunity for every bidder.
Taking advantage of these few hours of activity and rest time, naturally, everyone wanted to get up and move around.
After Tang San left VIP Room No.8, he didn’t rush to leave. The doors of the surrounding VIP rooms were opened one by one, and powerhouses from various Races stepped out.
Jin Miaosen had been stealthily glancing towards the Tenth VIP Room. When the door opened and the Dragon Clan powerhouses walked out with gloomy expressions, it couldn’t help but stick out its tongue and quickly hid on the other side of Tang San.
However, Tang San’s expression remained unchanged, even smiling slightly as he nodded to the group of Dragons led by Xu An Yu.
Xu An Yu returned the nod as if nothing had happened.
At this moment, the air suddenly twisted around Tang San, rippling like water. The powerhouses from several VIP rooms naturally noticed this scene and almost instinctively became alert.
In the next moment, another person appeared beside Tang San, dressed in a white robe and looking no different from an ordinary Human. Nevertheless, nearly all the presence in attendance were of rank 11 and above, yet none could see his face clearly.
Although they couldn’t make out his face, they could feel his terrifyingly immense aura, warm in appearance but akin to an intense sun inside.
Tang San bowed slightly in respect and said, "Your Majesty."
"Let’s go." The newcomer was none other than the first powerhouse of the Rihchen Empire, the true leader of the Spirit Monster Race, the naturally nurtured Tianyang Spirit King.
Upon sensing the aura of this Four-Heaven King, all the powerhouses present bowed in homage.
Tang San walked alongside the Tianyang Spirit King, heading outside.
The appearance of this figure immediately caused the powerhouses from the Dragon Clan to look at each other in consternation.
Tang Mohuang couldn’t help but whisper softly, "No wonder he’s so arrogant, he actually has His Majesty Tianyang backing him up. When did the Blue Golden Tree Clan and..."
"Shut up." Xu Anyu snapped in a low voice.
Given the astonishing power of an Emperor, even though Tang Mohuang had lowered his voice, could that Four-Heaven King really not hear him?
Tang Mohuang also realized this and quickly fell silent, once again bowing respectfully in the direction of the Tianyang Spirit King.
"It’s troubling Your Majesty. I was just deeply concerned when I saw City Lord Mei being sneak attacked today," Tang San said to the Tianyang Spirit King with a smile.
"Hand it over." The Tianyang Spirit King said gruffly, extending his hand.
Tang San hurriedly gave a Blue Gold Fruit of the Great Demon King Level to him. As soon as the Blue Gold Fruit touched the palm of the Tianyang Spirit King, it disappeared instantly. And in Tang San’s hand appeared a jade bottle, evidently a Substitute Lotus Seed. That was what they had previously agreed upon.
Just when the auction ended in the daylight, Tang San had contacted the Tianyang Spirit King with his divine consciousness, telling him that he wanted to go get the auction items for delivery but was worried about strong opponents attacking in the shadows and whether he could request his protection.
Tang San didn’t expect that the King would personally come, following him to the place of delivery to collect the auctioned items.
The appearance of the Tianyang Spirit King undoubtedly acted as a deterrent to all, quieting down those strong individuals who had some ideas about the Blue Golden Tree Clan.
"You’re quite generous with your bids! Did you buy the Light Dragon Spear today to target the Dragon Clan?" The Tianyang Spirit King asked.
Tang San smiled and said, "Since I’ve entered the competition, I always have to try for a win. Otherwise, wouldn’t it be a disgrace to our Rihchen Empire if we didn’t? If the Light Dragon Spear were to end up in Xu Anyu’s hands, it would definitely greatly enhance his strength, and it’s better to avoid such a situation."

The Tianyang Spirit King glanced at him, "You’re very bold, and even more so than I imagined. That’s good."
If Tang San hadn’t secured the Light Dragon Spear today, the Tianyang Spirit King wouldn’t have appeared here. When the price soared to 12,000 Purple Crystal Coins and the item was won, the Tianyang Spirit King involuntarily took another look at Tang San. The price paid was far beyond the actual value of the Light Dragon Spear. But as Tang San said, while having the Light Dragon Spear might not help him much, the absence of the divine tool in Xu Anyu’s hands would definitely have a considerable impact. From the perspective of the Spirit Monster Race’s participation in this competition, it was clearly very beneficial. Xu Anyu was a powerful contender in the struggle for the throne, and his weakening meant a greater opportunity for the Rihchen Empire.
Of course, the Tianyang Spirit King didn’t think that Tang San could perform well in the battle for the throne or support him to become Emperor starting from this battle. However, Tang San had successively secured two important auction items: the blood essence of the Great Demon Emperor Heavenly Fox and the Light Dragon Spear, which were significant blows to the Tianyu Empire and naturally great news for the Rihchen Empire.
"It’s all thanks to Your Majesty’s good teaching," said Tang San.
"I never taught you to be a wastrel," the Tianyang Spirit King couldn’t help but laugh.
Following the Tianyang Spirit King towards the delivery area of the large auction house, the treatment really was different. Everywhere they went, almost all races had to bow and salute them. As for the delivery, it was even simpler. There was no need to worry that anyone would dare to play any tricks in the presence of the Four-Heaven King, who could very well be the strongest person in the world today.
In fact, Tang San didn’t pay any money but only gave the Blue Gold Fruit, not only reclaiming the items he had won but also taking some extra Purple Crystal Coins as a surplus. His total expenditure over these past two days hadn’t yet reached 25,000. Plus the 5,000 Purple Crystal Coins from Ning Chenen, his gains this time were enormous.
As soon as Tang San got his hands on the Light Dragon Spear, he immediately felt a surge of extremely pure and powerful light element flowing up the spear shaft. Within this supremely pure light element, there was also a hint of unruliness. The intense burst of light element nearly vibrated Tang San’s palm open. Even the dragon patterns on the shaft seemed to sharpen, threatening to cut his palm.
The Tianyang Spirit King watched Tang San with a smile that was not quite a smile, as if he wanted to see him become the butt of a joke.
