The spectators in the stands wore strange expressions.
For a moment, the entire Great Soul Arena fell silent.
Poison Douluo Dugu Bo's infamy was known to everyone in Heaven Dou City.
Yet Chen Jin had actually dared to smack Dugu Yan's bottom in public.
Such courage truly inspired admiration, but it also made them break into a nervous sweat for him.
The referee came to his senses, wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, and hurried to the center of the stage.
"Blazing Fire Academy wins this match!"
As the referee loudly announced the result.
After a brief silence, the entire Great Soul Arena erupted with a roar that could topple mountains and overturn seas.
"Blazing Fire Academy actually beat Heaven Dou Royal Academy!"
"Just who is that Chen Jin? He could even burn away Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison!"
"Two yellow Soul Rings and one purple could unleash such terrifying power? Unbelievable!"
Countless cries of amazement and voices of discussion spread through the air.
In Shrek Academy's section of the stands.
Tang San's expression was extremely ugly.
He had thought Dugu Yan's deadly poison would cause Chen Jin considerable trouble.
He had never expected that the poisonous mist she took such pride in would fail to hold out for even a moment against Ultimate Fire.
Beside him, Ma Hongjun's eyes were red with jealousy.
"What gives that brat the right to hog all the glory!"
"When he faces our Shrek Academy, we'll definitely make him pay!"
Ma Hongjun grumbled sourly, the flesh on his face quivering.
Zhu Zhuqing quietly watched the figure in white leaving the arena.
A smile quietly appeared on her exquisite face.
That Chen Jin truly never disappointed.
Meanwhile.
Inside Blazing Fire Academy's preparation area.
Huo Wu was the first to rush out, her steps light.
Her fiery-red short skirt swayed with her movements.
It revealed a pair of long, straight thighs that gleamed with a warm, jade-like fairness beneath the bright sunlight.
Her fitted leather armor perfectly outlined her slender waist, small enough to encircle with one hand.
Her full curves rose and fell with her breathing, brimming with astonishing allure.
A pair of delicate red sandals perfectly displayed her jade-like feet.
Her rounded toes were painted a vivid scarlet, the mingling of fair skin and fiery red adding a few touches of captivating beauty.
"Chen Jin!"
Huo Wu hurried up to Chen Jin and looked him up and down.
Only after confirming that Chen Jin had suffered no injuries did Huo Wu relax.
"You were far too reckless just now. She's Dugu Bo's granddaughter, yet you actually dared to..."
At this point, Huo Wu's voice suddenly grew quieter, and her pretty face flushed.
She had thought of what Chen Jin had just done onstage.
Chen Jin smiled at the bashful woman before him.
"I was just teaching her a little lesson so she'd learn the rules."
Huo Wu gave a soft huff and folded her arms across her chest.
The movement made her already magnificent curves even more eye-catching.
"You could have taught her a lesson without hitting her there. Did you see how pretty she was and deliberately take advantage of her?"
Huo Wu leaned a little closer, and a delicate fragrance drifted into Chen Jin's nose.
Looking at Huo Wu's exquisite, flawless face, Chen Jin teased her.
"What, are you jealous?"
Huo Wu's face grew even redder, and even the fair tips of her ears turned pink.
"Who's jealous over you? You're flattering yourself!"
Huo Wu turned her head away awkwardly, grinding her jade-like feet against the ground as she tried to conceal her inner fluster.
Huo Wushuang came over with the other team members just then.
"Brother Chen, beautifully done!"
Huo Wushuang laughed heartily, his eyes filled with admiration.
"Heaven Dou Royal Academy has always looked down on everyone. This time, they finally kicked an iron plate."
The other Blazing Fire Academy members chimed in, their gazes filled with adoration as they looked at Chen Jin.
"Our captain is incredible!"
"Exactly! He could break through even Jade Phosphorous Serpent Poison with a casual move. Let's see who dares look down on our Blazing Fire Academy now!"
Amid the chorus of praise.
Huo Wu shot everyone a coquettishly reproachful look.
"All right, stop crowding around here. Let's head back to the lounge first."
As she spoke, Huo Wu reached out with her fair, jade-like hand and tugged at Chen Jin's sleeve.
Chen Jin followed Huo Wu toward the lounge.
Huo Wu fell half a step behind, her beautiful eyes quietly settling on Chen Jin's profile.
Sunlight spilled over Chen Jin's white shirt, reflecting a golden halo.
Huo Wu felt her heartbeat quicken.
This fellow, so powerful yet so ill-tempered, really made it impossible to look away.
"What was that move you used just now called?"
Walking beside Chen Jin, Huo Wu asked curiously.
"My third Soul Skill, Heaven-Burning Purgatory."
Chen Jin answered casually.
"Heaven-Burning Purgatory... That certainly sounds imposing."
Huo Wu pursed her lips.
"But how did it feel when you hit that woman just now?"
Huo Wu suddenly lowered her voice and leaned toward Chen Jin's ear, her breath fragrant as orchids.
Chen Jin turned his head to look at the pretty face so close to his own. He could even make out the fine down on Huo Wu's face.
"What, want to try it?"
Chen Jin raised an eyebrow and looked at Huo Wu teasingly.
Huo Wu froze, then realized what Chen Jin meant, and her pretty face turned completely red.
"Pervert!"
Huo Wu spat softly and hurried a few steps ahead.
But her flustered steps and trembling shoulders betrayed her inner turmoil.
Watching the graceful figure ahead of him, Chen Jin could not help laughing aloud.
Hearing his laughter, Huo Wu turned around and stamped her foot in embarrassed annoyance.
"No laughing!"
Huo Wu planted both hands on her hips and opened her beautiful eyes wide, trying to look fierce.
But to Chen Jin, she looked utterly adorable instead.
"All right, I won't laugh."
Chen Jin quickened his pace and walked beside Huo Wu again.
Huo Wu gave a soft huff. Though she kept a stern face, she could not hide the joy at the corners of her eyes and brows.
"At least you know what's good for you."
Huo Wu muttered quietly, edging a little closer to Chen Jin.
Their arms occasionally brushed as they walked.
Each touch stirred a subtle warmth.
Huo Wu felt half her body tingle, yet she could not bear to move away.
Watching from behind, Huo Wushuang shook his head helplessly.
His younger sister usually acted like a proud little peacock at the academy, thinking no one worthy of her attention.
Yet before Chen Jin, she was as docile as a kitten.
Still, recalling Chen Jin's terrifying strength, Huo Wushuang felt only admiration.
Perhaps only an extraordinary genius like Chen Jin could be worthy of Huo Wu.
They returned to the lounge.
The lounge was luxuriously furnished, with soft sofas and exquisite refreshments, everything they could need.
As soon as Huo Wu entered, she sank lazily into a spacious sofa.
She crossed her long, lovely legs, and her skirt slipped down, revealing a broad expanse of dazzlingly fair skin.
Her delicate, jade-like feet slipped free of her sandals as well and moved about, looking especially enticing.
Chen Jin sat down beside Huo Wu.
Huo Wu casually picked up a glass of chilled fruit juice and offered it to Chen Jin.
"Here, your reward."
Huo Wu blinked her beautiful eyes, looking a little playful.
Chen Jin took the juice and sipped it.
"Tastes good."
"Of course. I squeezed it myself."
Huo Wu lifted her chin proudly.
Her fair neck shone alluringly beneath the light.
Looking at Huo Wu, Chen Jin suddenly spoke.
"How are your preparations for the upcoming matches?"
At the mention of the competition, Huo Wu's expression grew much more serious.
"With you here, what do we have to fear?"
Huo Wu looked at Chen Jin, a light sparkling in her eyes. "Still, we can't get careless. Our opponents will only get stronger from here."
Chen Jin nodded. "Don't worry. With me here, Blazing Fire Academy will definitely make it to the very end."
Looking at Chen Jin's handsome profile, Huo Wu was entranced for a moment.
"You're always so confident."
Huo Wu murmured softly.
Before you continue
