Chapter 134: Three Thousand Phoenix Worlds!

Dugu Bo said, "Principal, the other two are the Thunder Academy and the Elephant Armored Academy. These two academies are quite special. Behind the Thunder Academy stands the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect, and behind the Elephant Armored Academy stands the Elephant Armored Sect. The Elephant Armored Sect has already secretly joined the Spirit Hall. I tried to invite them, but they politely declined."

"Then why didn't you wipe them out?" Ma Hongjun asked.

"."

As soon as these words were spoken, the entire room fell silent.

"They rejected you, which means they didn't give you face," Ma Hongjun continued.

Everyone felt somewhat speechless. Should they wipe someone out just because they refused? The Phoenix Academy had no deep-seated hatred for those two sects; wouldn't doing this just create enemies out of thin air? Dugu Bo's mouth twitched, and he said, "Principal, we represent the Phoenix Academy. You once said we should have grace, so I did not take action. Now that you have come out of seclusion, you have the final say. If you want to wipe them out, then go and wipe them out."

"Forget it. I've been in seclusion for two years; if I don't move around, I'll get rusty. I'll go down there myself and have a chat with them."

"You all continue to guard the academy. I'll be back shortly."

"Meeting adjourned."

Once he finished speaking, Ma Hongjun turned into a rainbow and vanished.

"The Principal is truly willful."

"There is going to be a big stir on the continent next. Behind the Thunder Academy is the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Sect. Should we do something, like go and intercept..."

"And the Spirit Hall behind the Elephant Armored Sect, should we do something about that too?"

Feng Wuhen, Huo Zhenshuang, and Shui Mitao spoke up one after another.

After all, since coming here, they hadn't really done anything major for the academy. Now that this opportunity had arrived, they wanted to achieve some merit to show their worth.

"No need. The Principal's strength is formidable. We just need to guard the Phoenix Academy well; we don't need to worry about things outside," Dugu Bo said, shaking his head after hearing them.

"Dismissed. There will be times later when you can exert great effort."

"Continue to recruit excellent students for the academy; this is also your contribution."

Dugu Bo added.

"Yes!" Everyone dispersed one after another.

"First stop, let's go to the Elephant Armored Sect."

A map appeared in Ma Hongjun's hand, marking the locations of the major forces on the continent, including the Elephant Armored Academy and the Thunder Academy.

Nowadays, ever since the Elephant Armored Sect threw their lot in with the Spirit Hall, life had been getting better and better.

"If I had known life could be this comfortable, I would have joined the Spirit Hall long ago. But it's not too late now," the Young Sect Master of the Elephant Armored Sect said to himself while lying on a chair, eating delicacies.

Originally, their Elephant Armored Sect had meager resources. Although they weren't truly poor, there were many people in the sect and family, so consumption was naturally high, and there were many places where money was needed.

But after they joined the Spirit Hall, the Pope Bibi Dong granted them one million Gold Soul Coins for support. Suddenly, life became much easier, resources became more abundant, and the cultivation resources he, the Young Sect Master, received were naturally more than before!

"Stop complaining. This matter cannot be known by outsiders yet. The timing isn't ripe, so you must absolutely not speak of it to anyone," Huyan Zhen said.

As an eighty-nine level peak Spirit Douluo, the thing he desired most now was to become a Title Douluo.

"Didn't you tell the Great Elder of the Phoenix Academy before? Aren't you afraid they'll leak it?"

"Father, the Phoenix Academy possesses a Supreme Treasure that can make martial souls mutate. If you really joined, you might actually be able to break through to a ninety-level Title Douluo. Why did you refuse?"

"It is rumored that the Phoenix Academy has more than one Title Douluo. Nowadays, it is a place where all major forces want to arrange for their disciples to enter. Phoenix Mountain is even invested in by many dignitaries, wealthy merchants, and people from major forces. It wouldn't be bad to get in and be a founding elder."

The Young Sect Master Huyan Li asked, feeling very puzzled.

"What do you know? I had no choice. At that time, we had already joined the Spirit Hall. If the Spirit Hall found out we were switching sides, that would be treason—a treacherous act. Given Bibi Dong's personality, she would definitely arrange for people to retaliate against us in secret. I just didn't want the sect to be implicated."

"I also covet the Phoenix Academy's Supreme Treasure, but that's all. I'm afraid of having the life to take it but not the life to spend it. Besides, the Phoenix Academy is a target for everyone; in the future, it will likely become an object of siege by everyone. After all, everyone is jealous of a Supreme Treasure."

"This is also the reason why I want to protect the Elephant Armored Sect from being implicated."

Huyan Bo sighed. "But now the Heaven Dou Empire royal family and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect are on very good terms with the Phoenix Academy. Even if someone besieged them, they would help, right? Added together, there are quite a few Title Douluo," Huyan Li said, confused.

"Enough, these problems are not for you to worry about. Take advantage of this time to cultivate well and hurry up and improve your cultivation," Huyan Bo didn't want to answer this question, so he took the initiative to steer the conversation away.

"Alright, then I'll go cultivate."

Huyan Li let out a burp and intended to get up and leave.

Just as he went out, he stumbled back and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Huyan Bo frowned: "What happened?"

Following Huyan Li's gaze, he only saw a red figure standing in front, with a thick aura and full deterrent power, which was very frightening.

"You are... the Principal of the Phoenix Academy, Ma Hongjun!"

Huyan Bo's pupils shrank, and he said in a deep voice.

"A surprise, you can still recognize me." Ma Hongjun walked into the hall, directly ignoring Huyan Li, who was a weakling with only Soul King cultivation.

"Why have you come here? We already refused before; the Elephant Armored Sect will not join the Phoenix Academy!"

"We have already joined under the command of the Spirit Hall's Pope Bibi Dong. This is the token of the Spirit Hall!"

Huyan Bo also exuded a sharp aura, because his intuition told him that Ma Hongjun had come with ill intent! As he spoke, he had already taken out the token and thrown it to Ma Hongjun.

"Spirit Hall, Bibi Dong? So what?"

"My academy sent the Great Elder to invite you, which is giving you face. You actually refused; that is not giving me, the Principal, any face!"

Ma Hongjun took it and looked at it, a look of disdain appearing on his face.

With a light squeeze, he crushed the token into powder.

His eyes turned cold and sharp.

A violent aura rose from his body.

Nine fire-red Spirit Rings, each radiating a hundred thousand year aura, appeared on him, and a pure-blooded Phoenix flew out as well.

"Gulp!"

"Nine Ten Thousand Year Spirit Rings! A Title Douluo!"

"You have actually become a Title Douluo!"

Both Huyan Li and Huyan Bo's eyes revealed looks of terror.

Huyan Bo immediately summoned his eight Spirit Rings: yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black, black.

Ma Hongjun said disdainfully, "A mere Eight-Ring Spirit Douluo, why seek your own destruction?"

A ball of fiery red light appeared in his hand, and within the ball of light, countless cosmic worlds flickered.

"Let you taste this move; to be able to die under this move, you can consider your life worth it."

"Eighth Spirit Ability: Three Thousand Phoenix Realms."

As the calm voice rang out, the ball of light in his hand flew into the sky, radiating terrifying power, instantly shrouding the entire Elephant Armored Sect in a world of flames.

Inside this, there were countless Phoenixes flying, and the flames were violent and surging.

"Huyan Bo, accept your judgment!"

Ma Hongjun stood tall in the sky, looking down from above at Huyan Bo, who was trembling below.
