Evil Fire Eunuch?

Ma Hongjun let out a furious roar, and the streak of fire shot up from the ground like a venomous snake.

Skimming along the arena floor, it pierced straight at Ye Feng's lower body from an extremely tricky angle.

He had poured all his Soul Power into this attack, even overdrawing part of his life force.

It was so fast that even the referee had no time to react.

The audience instantly erupted in alarm.

"Damn! A sneak attack!"

"That fatty has no shame at all!"

"Watch out!"

Ye Feng's pupils narrowed slightly.

He could sense the killing intent contained within that streak of fire. It was clearly aimed at crippling him.

The angle was vicious, aimed directly at his vital spot.

"Heh."

Ye Feng chuckled, a trace of coldness flashing through his eyes.

The next second, crimson-gold flames erupted from within his body.

Screech!

A resonant phoenix cry rang through the entire Soul Fighting Arena.

Crimson-gold flames soared into the sky, gathering behind Ye Feng into the phantom image of a massive fire phoenix.

Its golden phoenix eyes looked down upon the arena, its pressure pouring down like a mountain.

The streak of Evil Fire Ma Hongjun had condensed vanished soundlessly the instant it touched the Karma Fire, like ice and snow meeting blazing flames.

Not even a wisp of smoke remained.

"H-How is that possible...?"

Ma Hongjun's eyes widened, and his entire body froze in place.

The phantom of the Nether Karma Fire Phoenix behind Ye Feng slowly lowered its head and looked at the tiny figure below.

With a gentle flap of its wings, a wisp of crimson-gold flame fell from between its feathers and drifted lightly outward.

It was as fast as lightning.

Ma Hongjun only saw a flash of golden light before the flame slipped into his crotch at an unbelievable angle, precisely before he could react.

Sizzle!

A faint sound of scorching.

Ma Hongjun's entire body stiffened.

He lowered his head and looked at his crotch, where wisps of green smoke were rising.

Then, a burnt stench spread through the air.

"Ahhh!!!"

A shrill scream echoed throughout the arena.

Ma Hongjun clutched his crotch and rolled frantically on the ground. His fat face twisted into a knot, tears and snot smeared all over it.

"My... my... it's gone... it's all gone...!"

"No, it can't be real! It can't be real!"

Dai Mubai's face turned deathly pale. With a single stride, he rushed onto the arena, shoved aside the still-dazed referee, and crouched down to inspect Ma Hongjun's condition.

"Fatty! Fatty, how are you?!"

Ma Hongjun curled into a ball, both hands clamped tightly over his crotch. Tears and mucus streamed down his face as he let out incoherent cries:

"Boss Dai... it's gone... it's all gone... sob sob sob..."

Dai Mubai pulled his hands away and took a look. His pupils contracted sharply.

The area around his crotch was charred black. The fabric had been burned through with a fist-sized hole, and the skin inside had already been completely carbonized, giving off a nauseating burnt smell.

"Karma Fire Phoenix!"

Dai Mubai abruptly raised his head. His eyes were bloodshot as his Soul Power surged, and three Soul Rings rose instantly around him. "You went way too far! Were you trying to cripple him?!"

Ye Feng stood in the center of the arena. The fire phoenix phantom behind him slowly faded away, and the crimson-gold flames withdrew into his body.

He glanced down at Ma Hongjun, who was still rolling around, then looked up at Dai Mubai. A teasing curve lifted at the corner of his mouth.

"You call this going too far?"

"When he sneak-attacked me, why didn't you say that was going too far?"

"When he used his essence blood to fuel Evil Fire and aimed to destroy my manhood, why didn't you say that was going too far?"

"Now that he's suffering the consequences of his own actions, you jump out and say I went too far?"

Ye Feng chuckled and shook his head. "I've seen plenty of hypocrites, but this is the first time I've seen anyone as hypocritical as you people from Shrek."

Dai Mubai was left speechless. His face shifted between green and white as his fists clenched with cracking sounds.

At that moment, the audience exploded.

"Damn! That fatty deserves it!"

"Hahaha, I'm dying! Evil Fire Phoenix? More like Evil Fire Eunuch!"

"Karma Fire Phoenix, well done! That's exactly how you deal with shameless trash like him!"

"Can you Shrek people have even a little shame? You sneak-attack someone and still think you're in the right?"

"Exactly! He sneak-attacked from the start, then tried another sneak attack after losing. What a beast!"

"If Karma Fire Phoenix hadn't reacted fast enough, he'd be the one lying on the ground now, right?"

Listening to the curses around him, Dai Mubai's expression grew even uglier.

He gritted his teeth and stared at Ye Feng. "Even if Fatty was in the wrong first, you still shouldn't have... used such a vicious move!"

Ye Feng raised a brow and spread his hands. "I used a vicious move?"

"Which eye saw me use a vicious move?"

"I only used a tiny wisp of flame. I didn't even use a Soul Skill."

"He ran into it himself. Who can he blame?"

"If you don't believe me, ask the referee. Didn't I just flick my finger?"

The referee stood nearby, awkwardly cleared his throat, and nodded with difficulty.

"Uh... that's true... Karma Fire Phoenix really did only... flick a finger just now..."

Dai Mubai: "..."

Ma Hongjun: "...sob sob sob..."

The audience burst into roaring laughter.

"Hahaha! He castrated someone with a flick of his finger! What kind of divine move is that?!"

"Karma Fire Phoenix is insane!!"

"Fatty, you can't even beat one of his fingers, yet you still brag about being the Evil Fire Phoenix?"

"I suggest changing your name to Evil Fire Eunuch!"

Hearing that last remark, Ma Hongjun trembled with rage, his fat jiggling all over. His eyes rolled back, and he fainted on the spot.

Dai Mubai looked at the unconscious Ma Hongjun, then at the cheering audience all around them. His face turned livid as he picked up Fatty and turned to leave.

Ye Feng called lazily from behind him, "Hey, you're leaving just like that?"

"Not going to avenge him?"

"I'm still waiting for you to come up here."

Dai Mubai halted. His shoulders trembled slightly, but he did not turn around.

He gritted his teeth, carried Ma Hongjun off the arena at a brisk pace, and disappeared into the contestant passage.

Watching his back vanish, Ye Feng curled his lips into a cold smile.

Just wait. This was only the beginning.

He would not let either Ma Hongjun or Flender off!

Inside the passage, Dai Mubai carried Ma Hongjun, his face so grim it seemed water could drip from it.

Ma Hongjun slowly woke up and spoke weakly. "Boss Dai... am I... am I crippled...?"

Dai Mubai fell silent for two seconds, then gritted his teeth. "Don't worry. The academy teachers should have a way..."

Ma Hongjun's eyes lit up. "Really?"

"Really."

Dai Mubai took a deep breath, his gaze sinister. "Once we get you healed, we'll figure out how to get even."

Ma Hongjun nodded, gritting his teeth. "That Karma Fire Phoenix... I'm not done with him!"

Dai Mubai said nothing and merely quickened his pace.

He suddenly felt that coming to Heaven Dou City this time might have been a mistake.

Elsewhere.

As soon as Ye Feng jumped down from the arena, Shui Bing'er and Dugu Yan came up to meet him.

Dugu Yan gave him a thumbs-up, her eyes curving with her smile.

"Well done! That fatty will probably have to change his name to Evil Fire Eunuch from now on."

Shui Bing'er covered her mouth and smiled as well.

Ye Feng removed his crimson-gold phoenix mask, casually brushed through his tousled red hair, and wore an innocent expression.

"I only flicked my finger. He ran into it himself."

"Is that my fault?"
