Becoming Ma Hongjun, I Don't Want to Win by Doing Nothing!

In a nameless little village within the Balak Kingdom on the Douluo Continent.

A round-bodied child with fiery red hair was currently lying in his courtyard, basking in the sun.

Yet, his face held an expression of helplessness.

Sigh, I was just a little too loving, was that really necessary? the little boy lamented.

He was not from this world.

To be precise, he was a transmigrator.

In his previous life, his family was quite well-off. Under his father's arrangements, he went on a blind date. The other party gave him a good impression, and after a year of getting along, both sides were preparing to get married.

But the day before the wedding, his friend discovered his fiancée at a hotel.

It just so happened that one of his female friends was a professional player of the dating game.

After her persuasion.

Thus, the world lost an honest man and gained a player.

Of course, he still had his principles.

He would only look for the next fish after releasing the current one.

However, one day while shopping at a mall.

His current girlfriend ran into one of his many ex-girlfriends, and while they were mocking each other, his confidante appeared. To make matters worse, his childhood sweetheart was the manager of the mall.

Then the situation escalated, and the police officer who was his high school deskmate showed up.

After failed attempts at persuasion and some mutual shoving, he just like that, transmigrated.

This also made him understand a truth: fish are not that easy to keep.

Of course, perhaps he was the one being kept all along.

Sigh! Being sincere is truly hard!

Thinking of this, a melancholic look appeared on the little boy's face.

But it quickly turned into a bitter smile.

Because these were all lessons he had summarized only after transmigrating.

And what surprised him was that he had actually arrived on the Douluo Continent.

This anime had once been a massive hit across the entire internet.

He had, of course, watched it, even if he thought it was just average.

But the young girls in it were still quite nice.

At first, he didn't know it was this world.

But when he heard about Martial Souls, he understood.

And when he learned his own name, he was dumbfounded.

Because his name was Ma Hongjun.

Although his original name was Ma Jun, that one-character difference meant a world of difference.

Sigh, you could have transmigrated me into anyone, why did it have to be Ma Hongjun? the little boy whispered.

At the very beginning, he still held a glimmer of hope that it was just a coincidence of names.

But he learned that the Martial Souls in this village were all ordinary poultry. This confirmed to him that he was likely that very Ma Hongjun.

Although as Ma Hongjun, as long as he followed the original trajectory and worked a little harder, he could become the Fire God, a Main God.

Logically speaking, he could just lie flat, wait for his Martial Soul to awaken, get taken away by Flender, enter Shrek Academy, and wait for Tang San. After that, he could just coast along and eventually end up with a godhood.

But the key point was that this guy's Martial Soul was very dangerous in the early stages.

This was a real world.

Heaven knows if he would meet Flender when he awakened.

If his Evil Fire erupted before that, wouldn't he explode and die?

And even if he did meet him, with Flender's stingy nature, how high-quality could the place he found for him be?

He also had his principles. It wasn't that he looked down on them; he actually respected these people who sacrificed so much, it was just that their tastes were different.

The most important point.

He didn't really like Tang San and Yu Xiaogang.

One looked at people through colored glasses and was selfish, while the other was hypocritical, cowardly, and self-righteous.

It was often said that the Endless Fire Realm had Yao Lao, and the God Realm would no longer have Yu Xiaogang.

Although that wasn't entirely comprehensive, it held a certain truth.

Another point was that if his Martial Soul didn't mutate and was just like everyone else's—an ordinary piece of poultry—then all of this would just be a pipe dream.

Counting on Tang San to bring along an ordinary person? Was that even possible? If you weren't a genius, that guy probably wouldn't even spare you a glance.

Take Old Jack, for instance; he was so good to Tang San in the early stages, yet he never appeared again later on.

However, although he didn't like the master Tang San.

Compared to Spirit Hall, Shrek was still a bit better.

Because the principles that Flender guy taught were ridiculous, but at least he took care of the original Ma Hongjun.

As for going to Spirit Hall, Ma Jun had never considered it.

Because Bibi Dong was simply a lunatic.

Of course, she had been driven to it by scumbags.

First it was Qian Xunji, then it was Yu Xiaogang.

Having been treated that way by two men in succession, coupled with the bewitchment of the Rakshasa God, it was only natural for her to become mentally unstable.

But how should one put it! Bibi Dong was also a bit unscrupulous. As the Saintess of Spirit Hall, she turned against her own teacher for the sake of a man who sought fame and reputation. Most importantly, this man belonged to a hostile faction.

However, Qian Xunji was also useless. Of all the methods he could have used, he just had to resort to force.

What Ma Jun looked down upon most was resorting to force.

He couldn't win over a woman after such a long time, yet if only Qian Xunji could have treated Bibi Dong a little better.

Wait, this didn't seem to be a question of being good or not.

Hadn't he been good to his own fiancée before?

In the end, it still all went up in smoke.

"Sigh! No matter the world, the human heart is always treacherous!" Ma Jun sighed.

However, Ma Jun ultimately decided that if he had the chance, he must save the young girls of this world.

He was just so full of love! But from now on, his name would be Ma Hongjun.

Of course, all the above situations had one condition: he had to awaken a mutated Martial Soul. If he didn't, then it was all just his own wishful thinking.

Yet, there was a major problem currently troubling him.

That was the issue of the Evil Fire during the Martial Soul awakening.

If his Martial Soul really mutated, that wouldn't necessarily be a good thing.

It wasn't that he hadn't thought about looking for the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well.

But the reality was that he was only six years old and completely unfamiliar with this world. Even if he could reach the imperial capital and find Dugu Bo.

Given that guy's viciousness, let alone an Immortal Herb, he wouldn't even be able to save his own life.

Don't even mention being able to treat him like Tang San did.

Not to mention that Ma Hongjun didn't know how, even if he did, he wouldn't dare!

Didn't you see that even with Tang San's powerful background, he almost died?

If he went and said something like that, only death would await him. Even if they didn't kill him, he would become nothing more than a lab rat.

Besides, without Dugu Bo, he couldn't reach the Ice and Fire Yin Yang Well at all.

As for telling others, Ma Hongjun expressed that he hadn't lived enough yet. Which major faction in Douluo Continent wasn't standing on a pile of bones?

Did you really think the titles of the Upper Three Sects and Lower Four Sects were given for free? Those were real, tangible achievements, fought out through bloody battles against sects large and small.

Even when Bone Douluo first saw Tang San, what he thought of wasn't recruitment, but assassination. This was enough to show just how realistic and dark this world was.

In short, this world was definitely not as good as one imagined; only strength was the foundation that guaranteed everything.

"It seems I can only pray for Flender's arrival, or that I don't awaken a Martial Soul at all," Ma Hongjun whispered.

But having finally arrived in this world, without even having seen the young ladies outside, Ma Hongjun was truly unwilling to give up.

Shortly after, he heard footsteps coming from outside the door. The little boy put away the helpless expression on his face and looked toward the door.
