Bang!
Yu Tiankuang's attack was repelled by the White Tiger Barrier.
Dai Mubai countered with a White Tiger Light Wave, and Yu Tiankuang surged with lightning. The golden orb of light collided with the lightning, creating a shower of sparks.
"Mubai is still amazing. He's about to win," Flender said with satisfaction.
"Just wait, winning will be quite troublesome," Yu Xiaogang said. After learning the rules of the selection competition, he thought they were good, but they heavily tested their use of spirit power.
It would be best to use the least amount of spirit power to defeat the enemy; otherwise, fighting five people in a row, the spirit power might not be enough.
"Mhm."
Soon, Dai Mubai won the match.
"Little San, I'm going too. Ning Youyou and Boss Dai are already on stage, so I'm going too," Ma Hongjun said with a smile.
"I think you've taken a liking to that fiery little pepper, haven't you?" Oscar said, laughing.
"Get lost."
Ma Hongjun went straight to Stage Three and stepped up.
"Oh... another big Fatty has arrived. I heard you, Fatty, are very lewd," Yu Liuli said disdainfully.
Yellow, yellow, and purple spirit rings glowed, suddenly rising from beneath Ma Hongjun's feet.
A scorching heat wave instantly filled the air.
Ma Hongjun licked his lips, looked at the blue figure opposite him, and chuckled, "Little pepper, if my Phoenix Fire Wire singes your hair, will it be even prettier?"
"Phoenix? Just a big fat chicken," Yu Liuli sneered.
As her voice fell, her First Soul Skill, Lightning Thrust, was already activated. Her figure turned into a blue lightning bolt, carrying crackling electricity, and lunged directly at Ma Hongjun's face.
"Oh, getting serious?" Ma Hongjun's body swayed, and his Second Soul Skill, Phoenix of the Fiery Bath, instantly activated, narrowly avoiding the electric light.
"Little pepper, you're not good enough," Ma Hongjun teased while flexibly controlling the flames to parry Yu Liuli.
However, Ma Hongjun's cheap appearance instantly ignited the students of Thunder Academy below the stage. The burly men in the front row glared, their fists clenching and cracking: "This Fatty is seeking death! How dare he flirt with our Senior Sister Yu!"
The girls in the back row were even more furious, their faces flushed, waving their fists and shouting, "Senior Sister Yu, roast him to a crisp!"
Oscar swallowed. He could already feel terrifying gazes from different directions.
"Little San, do you think we'll be beaten to death?"
"This... I'm not sure." Tang San was also speechless. This Ma Hongjun really had no brains. He didn't even know whose school he was in.
To flirt like that, even if you win, you'll probably be ambushed and beaten tonight.
"Third Brother, I'll go too. It's too dangerous here," Xiao Wu said.
"Go, go," Tang San nodded. He still planned to watch.
Knowing oneself and one's enemy ensures victory in every battle.
On stage.
Yu Liuli was fuming with anger. Her Third Soul Skill suddenly activated, her right hand instantly covered in blue-purple lightning armor, and five sharp lightning claw shadows, accompanied by a tearing roar, grabbed at Ma Hongjun's chest.
"Let that foul mouth of yours die!"
Ma Hongjun's eyes narrowed. His Third Soul Skill, Phoenix Wing Sky Soar, suddenly unfolded. The huge fiery wings flapped violently, and a scorching wave of fire formed a fan-shaped fire wall, blocking Yu Liuli's attack.
"Don't be so impatient," he poked half his head out from behind the fire wall, grinning mischievously.
"Go to hell!"
Boom!!!
Lightning and flames collided violently in the center of the arena, creating a deafening roar.
"Are you going to fight or not! What's wrong with you, hiding!" Yu Liuli trembled with rage, veins on her forehead throbbing slightly from anger.
"I'm fighting!" Ma Hongjun suddenly dropped his playful expression. He was also struggling a bit now, having wasted too much spirit power earlier.
Yu Liuli's strength was indeed very strong, no wonder she was their senior sister.
His fiery wings suddenly accelerated, and he swooped down like a meteor.
"First Soul Skill: Phoenix Fire Wire!"
A scorching line of fire shot out, spraying towards Yu Liuli.
Yu Liuli looked at the approaching line of fire, took a deep breath, and her second spirit ring suddenly lit up.
"Second Soul Skill: Thunder Dragon's Roar!"
A deafening dragon's roar, mixed with violent electricity, swept out, colliding with the Phoenix Fire Wire in the center of the arena.
The scorching flames and violent lightning intertwined into a huge energy storm, pushing both of them back several steps.
However, Ma Hongjun was in a worse state, as a First Soul Skill and a Second Soul Skill couldn't compare.
Although Ma Hongjun later won the match, it ignited the fury of all the Thunder Academy students. Most of the Spirit Elders all gathered in front of Ma Hongjun's arena.
Ma Hongjun suffered terribly afterward. These Thunder Academy students conspired to make Ma Hongjun fight all five matches. In the middle three matches, they all let Ma Hongjun win, but they inflicted wounds all over Ma Hongjun's body, even making him vomit blood.
However, in a ring match, the ring master has no surrender button; they can only be defeated.
The last person then went up to deliver the final blow to Ma Hongjun.
At this moment, Ma Hongjun was thrown onto the bluestone slab like a broken rag doll, his chest heaving violently, each breath bringing a tearing pain.
He struggled to prop himself up, but as soon as he lifted his arm, he spat out a large mouthful of blood.
He wanted to cry but had no tears. He should have known not to flirt.
Tang San and the other Shrek people couldn't get through at all, surrounded by a crowd.
Yu Luomian and the other teachers saw this scene but did not step forward to stop it. They had eyes to see whose fault it was.
Besides, didn't they know that their Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan was protective of its own?!
If you come to their academy to study, behave yourselves. You want to rebel!
Isn't that courting death!
Anyway, this dead Fatty was sentenced to death by Yu Luomian. Afterward, he specifically found people to torment him, beating him half to death every time and not allowing him to participate in competitions.
Ma Hongjun's hair was messy, covered in dust and bloodstains. His usually playful face was swollen, his left cheekbone was bruised purple, and a cut at the corner of his mouth bled, the blood dripping down his chin onto his already blood-soaked clothes.
He curled up, coughing incessantly. Each cough pulled at all his wounds, making him grimace in pain.
Bloody foam hung on his lips, looking particularly miserable.
The Thunder Academy students were still glaring, and if no one had held them back, they probably would have rushed up to kick him a few more times.
Dai Mubai, Xiao Wu, and Ning Youyou, watching this scene from the stage, couldn't help but tremble.
They also cautiously watched the other Thunder Academy students, hoping they wouldn't treat them the same way, or they would be finished.
Ning Youyou was a bit better since she didn't have to fight.
But Dai Mubai and Xiao Wu were panicked, wishing they could go down and beat that dead Fatty to death.
He was truly cheap, nothing to do, yet he had to flirt with someone else's students in a place like this.
If you don't die, who will?
Flender, Yu Xiaogang, and the others had already covered their eyes, completely abandoning Ma Hongjun.
There was nothing they could do; this was the reality of living under someone else's roof.
