Ma Hongjun? Evil Fire Teddy!

[Galaxy Baseball Bat Hero: However, before you all begin your tasks, allow this one to reveal something new.]

Everyone was shocked, all asking what it was.

[Galaxy Baseball Bat Hero: This matter concerns your class schedule for tomorrow at Shrek Academy.]

[First Cute Bunny: Tomorrow's classes? Does Group Owner brother know even that?]

[Galaxy Baseball Bat Hero: I know a thing or two.]

Ye Qiong smiled inwardly. He had only just discovered the effect of the triple emotional point bonus after the group chat leveled up.

Could it be that the bonus increases by one fold every time the group chat levels up?

That would be amazing!

[Pagoda Suppresses River Demon: Wow! Then hurry up and reveal it!]

[I Am Not Yanzi: Don't drag your feet, Group Owner, give us the good stuff!]

[Galaxy Baseball Bat Hero: Alright, the video is coming right up. I've split this one into four parts; we'll watch and discuss it segment by segment.]

After saying this, Ye Qiong sent the first video directly into the group.

[Ding! Group Owner "Galaxy Baseball Bat Hero" has uploaded a video file <Shrek's First Lesson: The Troubles of the Evil Fire Phoenix>]

The video screen lit up, showing the area just outside Shrek Academy in the early morning.

Tang San and Xiao Wu were fast in pursuit of a chubby boy; that boy was none other than Ma Hongjun, whom they had seen in previous videos.

[First Cute Bunny: Huh? Is that me and Tang San? Why are we chasing that fatty?]

In the video, Tang San's legs were suddenly entangled by Blue Silver Grass that appeared out of thin air. A sharp stinging sensation and numbness shot through his legs, causing his movements to stall instantly.

Seeing this, Ma Hongjun was startled. His second soul ring flared, and purple flames instantly engulfed his entire body, burning away the Blue Silver Grass.

"My turn."

Xiao Wu let out a sharp cry, her rabbit ears twitching. With her soul power fully unleashed, she charged straight ahead.

Tang San gripped the hidden weapons at his waist, his Purple Demon Eye fixed intently on the battlefield, ready to provide support at any moment.

Seeing Xiao Wu charging toward him, Ma Hongjun opened his mouth and spat out a thick stream of fire, directly blocking her path.

[Pagoda Suppresses River Demon: This fatty really doesn't know how to treat a lady with tenderness!]

[Fire-Breathing Dragon: Hmph, men are all the same.]

However, the inner thoughts of the Ma Hongjun in the video were clearly exposed: This little rabbit is so lively and pretty; I'll just teach her a lesson, I shouldn't actually hurt her.

As soon as these words crossed his mind, the power of the fire stream he spat out quietly diminished by a few degrees.

Xiao Wu also keenly sensed that her opponent was holding back. Her red lips curled slightly, and she decided to give him a little face as well.

Just as Ma Hongjun thought Xiao Wu would surely be hit, her body twisted violently. She nimbly slipped through a gap in the fire stream and instantly closed the distance to appear behind him.

[Heavenly King Covers Earth Fox: Wow! Xiao Wu's movement technique is amazing!]

Xiao Wu circled behind Ma Hongjun, braced her hands on the ground, and precisely clamped her legs around his neck. Her first soul skill, "Waist Bow," was instantly triggered, sending Ma Hongjun flying into the air.

With a dull thud, Ma Hongjun crashed heavily to the ground, dazed and disoriented.

At this moment, a girl dressed in simple clothing ran over; it was Cuihua. She hurriedly helped Ma Hongjun up and asked anxiously, "Are you alright?"

Ma Hongjun snorted and said, "I'm not dead yet. Little rabbit, come again."

Xiao Wu jumped up from where she stood, kicked off her shoes stained with purple flames, and stood barefoot on the ground. The purple flames were incredibly sticky; once they touched something, they were not easily extinguished.

Seeing this, Cuihua hurriedly stepped forward to plead, "Please, stop fighting! Actually, Hongjun is a good person, it's just that we aren't a good fit, so I have no choice but to break up with him. You should go; I'll explain things to him."

Ma Hongjun, however, shouted angrily, "Stay out of my business, get lost!"

As he spoke, he shoved Cuihua aside and prepared to charge at Xiao Wu again, though he refrained from using his second soul skill out of concern for Cuihua's presence.

Just then, Dai Mubai's voice rang out: "Tang San, Fatty, what are you two doing?"

He walked over quickly in his white robes. Seeing the scene before him, he couldn't help but chuckle, "Xiao Wu, I think you've misunderstood. Cuihua, can you not stand him anymore either?"

Cuihua blushed, nodded, and turned to run away.

Ma Hongjun instantly lost his fire, looking dejected, and didn't bother to chase after her.

Tang San walked to Dai Mubai's side and asked in confusion, "What exactly is going on here?"

Dai Mubai looked at Ma Hongjun: "Are you going to tell them yourself, or should I do it for you?"

Ma Hongjun glanced at him, lowered his head, and said, "You tell them."

Dai Mubai laughed: "Fatty is the third student of our academy. His martial soul is a mutated Evil Fire Phoenix. While powerful, it has a fatal flaw."

Ma Hongjun immediately retorted, "Bullshit! Your martial soul is the grass chicken; mine is a phoenix!"

Dai Mubai ignored him and continued to explain: "While the mutation brought him powerful soul power, it also had a certain impact on his body. It made his abilities in that regard extremely potent, and his impulses are ten times that of an ordinary person. If he only suppresses it without finding an outlet, he could potentially explode and die from the pressure of this evil fire at any moment."

Ma Hongjun hurriedly added, "When the evil fire rises, I just can't suppress it!"

Xiao Wu frowned: "But you can't just ruin other girls' lives, can you? That's hooligan behavior."

Ma Hongjun shouted angrily, "What do you mean 'ruin'? That was all consensual! I've never forced anyone; I'm no hooligan!"

Dai Mubai nodded from the side to confirm, "This is indeed true. Fatty never forces anyone, and that girl Cuihua was indeed his girlfriend just now."

[I Am Not Yanzi: Pfft! What the hell? There's such a thing as a mutated martial soul?]

[Begonia Blossoms: That aspect of his ability... has become extremely strong? And his impulses are ten times that of a normal person? I'm dying of laughter, isn't he just a walking teddy?]

[I Am Not Swallow: That excuse is way too pathetic! "Evil Fire Phoenix," my foot—I think "Evil Fire Scrub-Chicken" is more like it!]

[Pagoda Suppresses River Demon: So, he changes girlfriends every day and goes at it three or four times a day... Good heavens, what girl could possibly stand that!]

[No Petting Cats: Disgusting.]

Zhu Zhuqing expressed her opinion with concise brevity.

[Most Beautiful Pope: Martial soul mutations certainly hold various possibilities, but attributing one's own desires and indulgence entirely to a flaw in the martial soul is merely an excuse for those with weak willpower.]

Bibi Dong's assessment was sharp and hit the nail on the head.

[Galaxy Baseball Bat Hero: Your Holiness is right. Now, it's time for a sharp critique!]

[Galaxy Baseball Bat Hero: This Ma Hongjun is purely an ultimate loser held back by his "Evil Fire." The "Evil Fire" is his best fig leaf; he blames every lecherous act and every moment he can't control his lower half on his martial soul's defect.]

[Galaxy Baseball Bat Hero: He's clearly just lacking in character and willpower, yet he makes it sound as tragic as a terminal illness, forcing the entire academy to clean up his mess. "Evil Fire Phoenix," my eye—I think "Evil Fire Teddy" is more accurate!]

Ye Qiong's sharp critique instantly ignited the atmosphere in the group chat.
