Douluo Dalu: I Can Become Stronger by Pitfalling Yu Xiaogang

"Shut up! Stop talking!" Cuihua flushed bright red and hurriedly stopped him.

At the same time, Xiao Wu finally couldn't stand it anymore. She stepped forward and said, "Hey, she already rejected you. Why are you still being such a shameless pest?"

Cuihua and Ma Hongjun were both stunned and turned to look at her.

The moment he saw the adorable Xiao Wu and the beautiful Ning Rongrong, Ma Hongjun's eyes went wide.

"Yo, what pretty girls! What, speaking up for her? Do you want to replace her and become my new girlfriends? Sure! No problem, I'll take both of you! Come on, follow your big brother. I'll send you flying right now!"

"Notice: Mission received [What the Fuck Do You Want? Fly to Fucking Heaven]. Mission objective: Defeat Ma Hongjun. Mission reward: Absorb part of Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Spiritual Essence, enhancing all fire-element abilities. Abilities of other elements will also receive Phoenix Flame attack bonuses. Reward Points +5. Failure penalty: Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong's Favorability toward you will decrease, and Ning Rongrong's subsequent missions will be closed."

Hearing Ma Hongjun's words, Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong's brows shot up in anger. Just as they were about to speak, Zhang Tianyu stepped in front of them and stared directly at Ma Hongjun.

"What the fuck do you want? Fly to fucking heaven."

Ma Hongjun froze. Ning Rongrong beside him froze too!

She had never expected that Zhang Tianyu, such a handsome, powerful, talented, gentle, and refined gentleman—

Would actually curse?

And he was throwing around motherfucking curses the instant he opened his mouth?

Wow! She was seeing him in a whole new light!

Rather than disliking Zhang Tianyu because of it, Ning Rongrong became even more interested in him after having her perception overturned!

That was how spirited young people should be!

When they were happy, they laughed happily. When they were angry, they cursed furiously. That was the personality young people ought to have!

In truth, it was a rebellious mentality. Ning Rongrong's father, Ning Fengzhi, was a textbook refined gentleman.

Having spent every day around that sort of textbook refined gentleman, Ning Rongrong had long since grown a little tired of it.

It was much like why Rose, an aristocrat aboard the Titanic, had fallen for the little hoodlum Jack.

Previously, Ning Rongrong had only admired Zhang Tianyu's looks and strength. Now, his cursing had practically made her heart bloom with joy.

Xiao Wu was unsurprised. Zhang Tianyu had cursed far more viciously before.

After freezing for a moment, Ma Hongjun flew into a rage. "Brat, you dare curse at me? You're courting death!"

"Curse at you?" Zhang Tianyu chuckled.

Whoosh!

Huangquan appeared, carrying a sinister chill. Three Soul Rings emerged from Zhang Tianyu's body as he stared at Ma Hongjun.

"I'm gonna beat the shit out of you too."

Ma Hongjun was completely dumbfounded!

Fuck!

Fuck!!

Where had this Soul Elder come from?!

And such a young Soul Elder at that?

Wasn't Boss Dai the only Soul Elder in the academy? Where the fuck had this guy popped out from?!

"So what if you have three Soul Rings? Don't think I'm afraid of you!"

Everyone had their strengths and weaknesses. Ma Hongjun might have been lecherous, but he truly wasn't a coward when it came to dealing with people or situations.

Whether he could win wasn't the point. The point was whether he dared to fight!

So what if you were a Soul Elder? If you dared curse at him, then even if he couldn't beat you, he would still fight you!

Two Soul Rings emerged from his body. A clear cry rang throughout the area, and in an instant, everyone felt the temperature around them shoot up!

Ma Hongjun instantly completed Martial Soul Possession. His hair changed into a mohawk, long feathers extended from his thick exposed arms, and his hands transformed into claws.

Seeing what he looked like, Xiao Wu burst out laughing. "Is there really a Phoenix that fat? No matter how I look at him, he seems more like a country chicken."

Zhang Tianyu waved his hand, and the Yellow Springs Sword shot forward with a howl, colliding head-on with the Phoenix Fireline Ma Hongjun unleashed.

"Tch, you think a wooden sword can withstand my Phoenix Flame?" Ma Hongjun sneered.

"You clearly don't understand Martial Soul countering at all! So what if you're a Soul Elder? My Martial Soul happens to restrain yours. Watch me burn your Martial Soul to ashes!"

Zhang Tianyu did not answer. He merely returned Ma Hongjun's sneer with one of his own.

Your Phoenix Flame might be powerful, but did you think Huangquan was just for show?

Whoosh!

Huangquan streaked through the air like black lightning, unstoppable and invincible!

Boom!

The Phoenix Fireline was smashed apart!

It exploded into sparks that scattered through the air!

"What?!" Ma Hongjun was shocked!

Huangquan continued forward without losing momentum, shooting straight at him!

Ma Hongjun's face went pale as he hurriedly dodged!

At this point, he only had his first two Soul Skills and could not fly, so he could only run to evade it.

But how could his running speed compare to Huangquan's flying speed?

"Use glycerin to fuck my friend!"

The battle anthem began!

The little fatty unleashed wind-like speed and ran with huge strides!

After running several dozen meters, Ma Hongjun felt that sword should have stopped chasing him.

After all, every Soul Skill had a range. You were only a Soul Elder, and this Flying Sword was merely your Second Soul Skill. The range of a Second Soul Skill couldn't possibly be several hundred meters, could it?

Yet when he turned around, Huangquan was right beside his face.

Fortunately, Huangquan was a sword. If Huangquan had been a person, it definitely would have slapped Ma Hongjun with, "Are you fucking Shrek Academy's little engine?" right then.

Ma Hongjun screamed in terror. His footing slipped, and he immediately lost his balance and fell forward!

After his chubby little face made intimate contact with Mother Earth for seven or eight meters, Ma Hongjun finally stopped.

Zhang Tianyu leaned back theatrically. "Now that's what you call a face-braking expert!"

"Notice: Ma Hongjun defeated. Mission complete! Beginning to ste— ahem, beginning to absorb Phoenix Spiritual Essence!"

PS: Thanks to reader [Fanren Xiuxian] for the reward!

Zhu Zhuqing's Favorability Toward You Has Increased!

A ray of light invisible to everyone else appeared between Zhang Tianyu and Ma Hongjun.

It connected their bodies together.

Ah, not that kind of connection.

Streams of fiery red light floated out from Ma Hongjun's body, traveling along the ray connecting them and entering Zhang Tianyu's body.

Zhang Tianyu only felt waves of scorching energy surge through him, warming every limb and bone as though it were summer.

The process was very short, ending after only five or six seconds.

Ma Hongjun did not feel anything at all.

Zhang Tianyu leisurely walked to within several meters of Ma Hongjun with Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong. "Little fatty, still want to fight?"

Cuihua ran over, panting heavily. "Stop fighting! Don't fight anymore!"

Ma Hongjun stood up. Fury surged through his heart as he wiped his face hard and pointed angrily at Zhang Tianyu. "Just you wait! Don't think you're so amazing just because your Soul Power Level is higher than mine. My Soul Power Level will definitely surpass yours someday!"

Zhang Tianyu laughed unkindly.

Someday?

Sorry, everyone had the right to say, "Never bully a poor youth," except you, Ma Hongjun.

Because from beginning to end, among the Shrek Academy group, you were always at the bottom.

Others might only be dead last temporarily, but you were dead last for life.

How could you even have the nerve to say, "My level will definitely be higher than yours someday"?

Not to mention that he had now absorbed part of Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Spiritual Essence. It would not harm Ma Hongjun or damage the source of his Martial Soul, but with part of his spiritual essence missing, his cultivation speed would decrease in the future.

Those were the system's exact words.

"What are you laughing at?!" Ma Hongjun clenched his fists angrily.

"I'll wait for you," Zhang Tianyu said.

Just as Ma Hongjun was about to speak, Dai Mubai's familiar voice came from behind them. "So you're all here?"

Everyone turned around and saw the handsome, spirited Dai Mubai walking toward them beneath the morning sun.

Zhu Zhuqing's arrival had put him in an excellent mood. At that moment, he felt better than if he had gotten five sets of twins.

Then he saw Ma Hongjun covered in dirt and looking utterly miserable, and immediately found it strange. "Yo, fatty, what happened to you?"

Ma Hongjun immediately said, "Boss Dai, perfect timing! Help me out and teach this brat a lesson!"

As he spoke, Ma Hongjun pointed at Zhang Tianyu through gritted teeth.

"Huh?" Dai Mubai was instantly dumbfounded.

Xiao Wu and Ning Rongrong both burst out laughing.

He wanted Dai Mubai to teach Zhang Tianyu a lesson?

Fight Tianyu? Did he have the strength for that?

Xiao Wu laughed aloud. Had he forgotten how he lost one hundred thousand gold coins?

"You... you two just had a fight?" Dai Mubai asked, somewhat bewildered.

"Yeah," Ma Hongjun said.

"How can you call that a fight?" Ning Rongrong said with a smile. "You clearly just got beaten up."

Ma Hongjun instantly reddened and muttered, "It was only because his Soul Power Level is higher than mine. If we were at the same level, who would beat whom wouldn't be certain!"

"That's not right," Xiao Wu said. "Tianyu might be a higher level than you, but he didn't even use his Third Soul Skill. He only used his Second Soul Skill to knock you flat!"

"That's right," Ning Rongrong said.

"You... you..." Ma Hongjun was left embarrassed and furious by their words!

"Alright, alright!" Dai Mubai quickly smoothed things over. He pulled Ma Hongjun aside and whispered, "You, honestly. Didn't I tell you last night not to provoke these new students? Why won't you listen?"

Ma Hongjun froze. "I... I didn't know they were new students..."

"Your brain is useless!" Dai Mubai knocked him on the head. "They're young unfamiliar faces, and their clothes and bearing are obviously different from the villagers'. If they aren't new students, are they newborn babies?"

"Uh..."

Dai Mubai knocked him again irritably. "I bet you saw that the two girls were pretty, threw everything I told you out of your mind, and started flirting with them, right?"

Ma Hongjun did not dare look at him and awkwardly scratched his foot.

"Tianyu is strong, but he's a good person. He never picks fights or bullies people with his strength. If you hadn't flirted with them, he definitely wouldn't have attacked."

Ma Hongjun scratched his head. "Fine, fine, Boss Dai. You're right about everything."

"What exactly happened?" Dai Mubai asked.

Ma Hongjun roughly explained what had happened.

Dai Mubai laughed unkindly and turned to Cuihua. "So that's what happened. Miss Cuihua, have you finally had enough of this fatty too?"

Cuihua covered her face with both hands in embarrassment, then turned and ran away.

"Hey..." Ma Hongjun stretched out his hand. Watching Cuihua run away, he let out a dejected sigh.

"Alright, stop sighing. A real man need not worry about having no wife. Just find another one. Come on, let's go eat together." Dai Mubai patted Ma Hongjun on the shoulder, then said to Zhang Tianyu and the other two:
