Chapter 126: One vs. Six! A Crushing Defeat, Ma Hongjun, Dai Mubai
"Is this it? Your strength is pathetic." Ye Wen mocked.
"Damn it!" Tai Long struggled to stay on his feet, his heart filled with terror.
"Hold on! Tai Long has held on through one strike!!" Huang Yuan and Jing Ling exclaimed with excitement.
Yu Xiaogang and Tang San looked grim, yelling, "What's there to be happy about?! When did surviving one strike become something to celebrate?!"
"First soul skill, Stone Armor!" Tai Long activated his defensive soul skill in time, but when Ye Wen struck, his defense shattered immediately.
Boom!!
"Ahhhh!"
Tai Long slammed to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. The blow had severely injured him, and he wouldn't be able to get out of bed for several days.
"Tai Long!!"
"Another loss! Ye Wen is taking on four by himself!"
"Dammit, is Shrek Academy really about to get wiped out by one person?!!"
"Heh! Let me show you how it's done!" Ma Hongjun roared in anger, leaping down from above. "Shrek Academy, Ma Hongjun! Level 37 Agility-based Battle Soul Master, Martial Soul, Evil Fire Phoenix!"
"Phoenix? Isn't your martial soul just a chicken?" Ye Wen remarked.
Ma Hongjun's face darkened instantly. The thing he hated most in life was being called a chicken, and it struck a nerve, "Shut up! This is a Phoenix, not a chicken!!"
In a fit of rage, Ma Hongjun summoned his martial soul, revealing a chicken that appeared behind him—just an ordinary farm chicken, the kind you'd see at home.
"Hey! You guys tell me, is this a chicken or a phoenix?" Ye Wen called out to the nearby students.
"Yeah, that's definitely a chicken!"
"Yeah! It doesn't look like a phoenix at all! It's clearly a chicken, just admit it!"
"Exactly! It's a chicken! I feel like I'll explode if I keep looking at this chicken martial soul."
The audience also gave Ye Wen credit, speaking their honest opinions.
"You guys! Shut up!!!" Ma Hongjun could not bear the honest opinions. His martial soul, while containing some Phoenix bloodline and fire power, was indeed just a chicken. Without any special opportunity, it would remain a chicken forever.
"I hate being called a chicken the most!!! Ye Wen, I'm going to kill you!!!" Ma Hongjun was completely enraged, losing all calmness, and jumped into the air, unleashing his second soul skill: "Phoenix Rebirth!!"
This skill increased the power of his Phoenix flames by thirty percent, also boosting the power of his soul skills by thirty percent.
"First soul skill, Phoenix Fire Line!!"
A powerful burst of flames shot out of Ma Hongjun's mouth, heading toward Ye Wen.
"A soul master in his thirties, you stupid fat man, you really don't understand your own power, do you?" Ye Wen said, holding his Deep Sea Demon Hammer, quickly dodging the fire attacks.
He jumped into the air and reached Ma Hongjun's height, striking him with the hammer.
Boom!
Ma Hongjun barely managed to use his soul power to block, but was still slammed to the ground. He quickly rose, "Third soul skill, Phoenix Wings Flying Sky!"
Ma Hongjun gained the ability to fly briefly, activating his second soul skill to boost his Phoenix flames to 100%, with a 50% increase in attack range.
With the boosts from the second and third soul skills, the power of Ma Hongjun's first soul skill, Phoenix Fire, became extremely formidable.
This was a typical combination of Ma Hongjun's soul skills.
He flew higher, continuously shooting fire at Ye Wen.
"Hahahaha! How strong can you be! I can fly, and if you have the guts, come up here and fight me! Let's see if I burn you to death!" Ma Hongjun laughed with confidence, not realizing that Ye Wen could also fly.
"Fool, did you forget something?"
Suddenly, golden light flashed behind Ye Wen.
"Not good! He seems to..."
Ma Hongjun's face turned black. He had forgotten! Two years ago, when Ye Wen came to Shrek Academy and pummeled Tang San, he had used an external soul bone—golden eagle wings!
In the next moment, Ye Wen's Golden Eagle Wings appeared behind him, flapping hard and shooting up into the air.
"Not good!"
"Phoenix Fire Line!"
"Phoenix Fire Line!"
"Fire Line my ass! Get down there!!" Ye Wen roared arrogantly, dodging the incoming fire line.
Ma Hongjun's face turned pale with fear as he quickly tried to escape, but his flying speed couldn't match Ye Wen's Golden Eagle Wings, which were an external soul bone at the 50,000-year level!
Ye Wen quickly caught up with Ma Hongjun and slammed the hammer down on his face.
"Get down!!"
Boom!
"Ahhhh!!" Ma Hongjun spat out a mouthful of blood as his body was smashed from the sky into the ground with force.
He crashed heavily to the ground.
"With your pathetic strength, how dare you call yourself my equal? What are you even doing here!!"
Ye Wen retracted the Deep Sea Demon Hammer, rolled up his sleeves, and flew toward the fallen Ma Hongjun, landing a powerful punch to his face.
Boom!
"Ahhhh!!" Ma Hongjun screamed in pain as Ye Wen's punch broke his nose, causing blood to pour out.
Ye Wen didn't stop. He pinned Ma Hongjun to the ground and started pummeling him like he did to Tang San, kicking and punching relentlessly.
"Ahhh~!"
Ma Hongjun screamed, unable to even say "I surrender."
"Fatty!"
"Stop! Stop! If you keep this up, you'll kill him!!!" The referee hurried over to intervene. Ye Wen finally stopped beating him and looked down at Ma Hongjun, who was lying on the ground, covered in blood, his face swollen and bruised, like a dead pig.
Then, with dominance, Ye Wen said, "Hey! People from Shrek Academy, listen up! If anyone dares to call me 'old man' again, your fate will be the same as this fat pig. Got it?"
"God, this Ye Wen is too violent!"
"He's terrifying! This poor chicken..."
"Hey, remember this! Never mess with Ye Wen!"
The next person up, Dai Mubai, was deeply shaken. Although he hated Ye Wen, he now dared not say a single harsh word.
Dai Mubai cared about his image. He didn't want to end up like Ma Hongjun, beaten to a pulp!
How would he, Dai the noble, maintain any face after that?
"Shrek Academy, Dai Mubai! Level 41 Agility-based Battle Soul Master, Martial Soul, Evil Eyed White Tiger."
He didn't dare say anything else. Instead, he immediately activated his enhancement skill and made his move.
But did Dai Mubai think that staying silent would save him?
Ye Wen wasn't going to show any mercy to Dai Mubai.
