The Drawback of the Evil Fire Phoenix: The Power of the Azure Dragon Suppresses Evil Fire!

After completing all their Soul Ring hunts, everyone quickly left the Star Dou Forest and returned to the human world.

Li Fei had not visited Shrek Academy for quite some time. It was still located in the same place as before, except the surrounding villages had been acquired. Once Flender and the others had money, they immediately began expanding the academy and ordering all kinds of equipment.

Though it still lagged far behind the truly top-tier Soul Master Academies, it had already surpassed a great many Soul Master Academies across the continent.

The academy was still under construction. The grounds and surrounding buildings had been made exceptionally beautiful, a world apart from their former shabby appearance.

"Now that we have money and the academy has grown, aren't we planning to hire a few teachers?"

"And recruit more students?"

Li Fei asked.

"We're still trying to find them. A few came by before, but once they saw we were an unlicensed academy, they left."

"The most urgent matter now is getting the academy's official paperwork in order and making it a qualified Soul Master Academy. Otherwise, we won't even be eligible to participate in the Continental Advanced Soul Master Academy Elite Tournament."

Flender said.

"Just spend money. Most things in this world can be solved with money."

"Either go to Spirit Hall or the Balak Kingdom."

Li Fei said.

Flender said, "I went to the Balak Kingdom before, but those bastards were greedy beyond measure. They kept stalling me and never got it done. They've gone too far!"

As he spoke, he could not help recalling the humiliation he had suffered before. Their academy was not officially recognized, so they did not even qualify for the Elite Tournament. That had always been a thorn in his heart, stabbing him painfully.

Li Fei said, "Then go to Spirit Hall. In the name of a Soul Saint, invite the person in charge of the Suotuo City Spirit Hall Branch out for a meal, then use money to win him over. With his status, helping us handle this should be easy."

"I really wouldn't have dared to consider it before, when we had no money. But since we have money now, we can give it a try." Flender frowned, then finally nodded.

Although he was miserly, whenever money truly needed to be spent, he never hesitated.

Besides, his current fortune was far greater than before.

The reason Li Fei proposed this was that he wanted to find them a backer before they had fully matured.

But that backer had to be tied to the same boat as them.

That was where mutual interests came in.

"Uncle Flender, do this."

Li Fei leaned close to Flender's ear and whispered quietly.

Flender kept nodding as he listened, his eyes lighting up. "Just as expected of you, Xiao Fei. Alright, I'll handle it right away."

"Alright." Li Fei nodded.

Flender quickly left.

"Brother Fei, why did you have time to come by today?"

At that moment, Ma Hongjun and Oscar ran out from inside. Their faces lit up with delight when they saw Li Fei.

Li Fei was a genius with his own cultivation methods. He did not cultivate alongside them, and he rarely came here, so the three of them had fewer chances to meet.

Influenced by Li Fei, Ma Hongjun and Oscar had become even more eager to grow stronger, and their motivation to cultivate was exceptionally strong.

Although they were still far behind Li Fei, compared to everyone else, they were practically monsters.

"I just finished hunting for Soul Rings, so I stopped by to see you." Li Fei smiled.

"Brother Fei, what level are you now?" Ma Hongjun asked, his eyes widening.

"Level thirty-seven," Li Fei said.

"Brother Fei, you're joking with us, right?"

"I remember you're six years old, just like us?"

"A six-year-old level thirty-seven Soul Elder is a little too ridiculous."

Ma Hongjun and Oscar did not believe him. No normal person would think it was true.

It was simply too absurd.

No one like that had ever appeared on the continent.

If such a person truly existed, then he would definitely be an outrageously monstrous genius!

They did not even dare imagine it.

"Believe it or not."

Li Fei said.

"Brother Fei, let's have a fight." Ma Hongjun was eager to try. After cultivating bitterly for so many days, he felt he had grown stronger. He could do this!

As for Oscar, he would serve as support.

He himself wanted to become an offensive Soul Master, but reality was cruel. In the end, it was only a fantasy.

"You'll only get beaten by me."

Li Fei laughed.

"We haven't fought yet, so it's too early to say. I'm really strong!" Ma Hongjun said, planting his hands on his hips and sticking out his belly.

"Come on, make the first move."

Li Fei crooked a finger at him.

Seeing this, Ma Hongjun summoned a flaming chicken. This was his mutated Evil Fire Phoenix.

He immediately launched his first soul skill at Li Fei.

Faced with the attack, Li Fei stood where he was with a calm expression and took it head-on with nothing but his body.

Bang!

Ma Hongjun's attack did not even break through Li Fei's outermost defense. Only a faint wisp of white smoke rose from him.

"What?!"

"You blocked it directly with your body? And you're completely fine?!"

"What kind of body is that? How can it be so terrifying?!"

Ma Hongjun and Oscar sucked in cold breaths and cried out.

Li Fei patted his shoulder. "Now it's my turn."

The moment he finished speaking, his body had already appeared before Ma Hongjun. The latter had no time to react before a slap sent him flying.

"Ah!"

Thud! Thud!

Ma Hongjun's body rolled repeatedly across the ground, leaving him sprawled out miserably.

"So strong... it hurts so much..."

Ma Hongjun's voice trembled.

"Fatty, go back and keep training. You're nowhere near being my opponent right now."

Li Fei intended to leave. He had no interest in an opponent like Ma Hongjun, because he was simply too weak.

They were both six years old, yet the gap between them was that enormous.

"Ah!"

Suddenly, Evil Fire erupted from Ma Hongjun's body, and he looked to be in terrible pain.

"What's wrong?!" Oscar, Zhao Wuji, Li Yusong, and the others' expressions changed.

Li Fei turned around and frowned. "Could this be Evil Fire?"

The drawback of the Evil Fire Phoenix was that it was incomplete. It was a Martial Soul with serious flaws. Once the Evil Fire within its owner's body could no longer be controlled, it demanded an outlet.

This was Ma Hongjun's first flare-up. He was in immense pain and wanted to find a woman to vent the Evil Fire on.

Li Fei rushed over and slapped Ma Hongjun's chest. In the next instant, a dragon's roar sounded as Life Force carrying dragon might poured directly into Ma Hongjun's body.

He forcibly suppressed Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire.

Only then did Ma Hongjun begin to feel better.

"What just happened to me? What was that flame?" Ma Hongjun asked in confusion.

Li Fei said, "That is the drawback of your Martial Soul. The Evil Fire needs to be released, but I've suppressed it for now. It won't happen again in the future."

The power of the Eastern Azure Dragon was indeed useful. There were many applications he had yet to develop. Once he returned, he needed to study it properly.

"I never expected this Martial Soul to have such a drawback."

Zhao Wuji and the others frowned.

"But this is a flaw in the Martial Soul itself. Can it really be solved so easily?" Everyone was curious.

What exactly had Li Fei done just now? They had only seen him inject energy into Ma Hongjun's body, and then it was over.

Only Li Fei and Ma Hongjun knew what had truly happened.

"Using even greater dragon might to suppress a flawed phoenix is still possible," Li Fei said.
