Chapter 17: Evil Fire Phoenix

Soon, Tang San arrived outside the girls' dormitory.

He really wanted to go straight in; if only Xiao Wu were inside, that would be fine.

After all, the two had lived in the same dormitory for so long and were brother and sister.

But now, with other girls inside, it was not very convenient.

After hesitating for a moment, Tang San still did not go in; instead, he called softly from outside: "Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu..."

Soon, Xiao Wu walked out from inside; she wore the same outfit as yesterday, and except for her slightly pale complexion, there was nothing amiss.

Tang San immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "Xiao Wu, are you feeling better?"

Xiao Wu made a shushing gesture to Tang San: "Zhuqing hasn't woken up yet; don't disturb her. Let's go somewhere else to talk."

Tang San felt that the look in Xiao Wu's eyes seemed somewhat different.

In fact, she had regained consciousness in the middle of the night; Ning Rongrong had told her what happened after she fell into a coma yesterday.

Tang San reached out and rubbed her head: "It was my fault yesterday; I didn't protect you well enough."

Xiao Wu shook her head and stuck out her cute little pink tongue: "That teacher was too powerful; how could this be your fault!"

Tang San suddenly stopped in his tracks; he seemed to have noticed something and thought to himself: "From the moment we came out until now, she hasn't called me 'brother' even once..."

His inner soul was already that of a forty-year-old seasoned veteran; naturally, he knew what this meant.

He took Xiao Wu's soft hand and said: "Let's go find something to eat; I imagine you must be hungry."

The village was not large; as they walked, they unknowingly had already left the bounds of Shrek Academy.

The two were just about to find a farmhouse to buy food when they discovered a man and a woman arguing not far away.

The young girl seemed to be about fourteen or fifteen years old; her appearance was ordinary, but she was full of youthful vitality, wearing simple peasant clothing; she must be a child from the village.

The young boy seemed to be about the same age as Tang San; he was not tall, chubby, and gave people a very sturdy feeling.

"Ma Hongjun, don't look for me again in the future; I won't be with you."

Fearful expression appeared in the young girl's eyes, while the little fat boy asked in a strange tone: "Cuihua, haven't I treated you well? Why do you want to break up with me?"

Tang San and Xiao Wu exchanged a glance and couldn't help but smile.

Children these days really fall in love too early; at such a young age, they are already talking about breaking up and such things.

Cuihua's face instantly turned red: "You treat me quite well, but I really can't stand it; you should find someone else."

Ma Hongjun angrily said: "What do you mean you can't stand me? Breaking up is fine, but have it with me one more time first; otherwise, there's no way."

Having finished speaking, he raised his hand and tried to pull the young girl Cuihua.

Cuihua pleaded: "No... don't, are you even human? Just let me go."

Xiao Wu really couldn't bear to watch anymore and shouted loudly: "Stop!"

Seeing this, Ma Hongjun immediately beamed with joy: "Yo, what a pretty little girl! What, do you want to take her place as my girlfriend? Fine, I agree."

"Nonsense!"

Enraged, Xiao Wu leaped into the air and kicked away the hand he was using to grab Cuihua.

"Ouch, little girl, you've got quite a temper! I am called the Evil Fire Phoenix; let me show you what real fire is."

Having finished speaking, Ma Hongjun rushed forward without hesitation.

Seeing that both sides were already fighting fiercely, Tang San decisively stepped forward, preparing to help Xiao Wu.

Just then, a familiar voice rang out: "Tang San, Pangzi, what are you doing?" Tang San and Ma Hongjun both looked toward the direction of the voice.

There they saw Dai Mubai, dressed in white robes with his hair combed extremely neatly, walking toward them.

Behind him were also Zhou Yu and Ning Rongrong.

Ning Rongrong had originally come to see Zhou Yu off as he left the academy; she happened to be nearby and, hearing the commotion, came over to take a look.

Xiao Wu snorted: "This fat guy is bullying a girl in broad daylight. We couldn't stand it and wanted to teach him a lesson."

Dai Mubai immediately understood and suddenly couldn't help but laugh: "Miss Cuihua, you can't stand him either, can you?"

Cuihua's small face turned red; she nodded and turned to run away.

Dai Mubai laughed heartily, turned around, and explained to Tang San and Xiao Wu: "Didn't I tell you that the academy has only three students in total, including me? Pangzi is that third one."

"So... we are classmates."

Only then did Tang San and Xiao Wu learn the other's true identity.

"Actually, you can't blame Pangzi either; who else's martial soul is a turkey..."

The moment Dai Mubai's words left his mouth, Ma Hongjun immediately retorted: "Your martial soul is the turkey; your whole family is chickens. I am a Phoenix, the Evil Fire Phoenix."

"Phoenix, fine; let's just say it's a Phoenix."

Dai Mubai's smile did not fade on his face as he continued: "Pangzi has a Mutated Martial Soul; he possesses very strong flame abilities, and this flame is very strange, affecting his body. It makes his abilities in matters between men and women extremely strong, and his impulses are ten times those of ordinary people."

Ma Hongjun hurriedly added: "When the Evil Fire rises, it can't be suppressed!"

Dai Mubai nodded: "So, this guy is often consumed by lust; if he doesn't vent it, he would have exploded and died long ago."

"..."

Ning Rongrong was left dumbfounded by what she heard and couldn't help but complain: "These guys... each one is more perverted than the last."

Xiao Wu also became somewhat shy: "But he still shouldn't harm girls like that; that is the behavior of a hooligan."

Hearing these words, Ma Hongjun angrily said: "What do you mean harm? It was consensual between us. Although my lust is a bit strong, I have never forced anyone."

Tang San looked at Dai Mubai for confirmation; he only heard the other party verify: "Indeed, Pangzi never forces anyone; Miss Cuihua is indeed his girlfriend."

Xiao Wu snorted coldly: "Never forces anyone? Then why won't you let her break up when she says she can't stand it?"

These words left Ma Hongjun speechless.

Dai Mubai's expression also became awkward; he pretended to cough once and said: "Because this guy has too many times when he can't suppress the Evil Fire; not just any ordinary girl can endure him demanding three or four times a day."

Tang San put on a surprised expression: "Truly a Monster Academy; even Mutated Martial Souls like this exist."

Xiao Wu also blushed and muttered, "People really are all kinds."

Ma Hongjun glared at Dai Mubai, "If I were like you and Xiao Ao, with a whore's face, I could date multiple girlfriends at the same time..."

Dai Mubai jumped in fright and hurriedly stopped him, "You fatso, you can eat recklessly, but you can't speak recklessly. If you slander my reputation again, don't blame me for being impolite to you."

"..."

Looking at these few clowns before him, Zhou Yu was truly speechless; it was hard to imagine that in the future they would become his objects of revenge.

"Rongrong, take good care of yourself. I'll return to the sect first and come see you again in a while."

After Zhou Yu finished speaking, he gently patted Ning Rongrong's shoulder and said with deep meaning.
