Chapter 19: The Zhao Wuji Version of an unexpected intruder popping up halfway

"Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect?"

"Could it be the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, one of the three most renowned sects on the continent!?"

"That wealthiest sect on the continent!?"

Although everyone had never heard the name Ning Rongrong, they had all heard the great name of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect!

Hearing the flattery from these people, Ning Rongrong couldn't help but puff out her small chest, revealing a look of pride and complacency that she could not hide.

In her view, the young man before her could not possibly refuse her!

She was also very satisfied with the cheering of these people. "There are two Title Douluo within the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect," Xiao Wu muttered, a look of fear appearing in her eyes as she looked left and right, worried that a Title Douluo might be nearby and would drag her away after seeing through her identity; that would be the end of it.

Tang San frowned, a look of jealousy flashing in his eyes.

He was considering whether or not to expose the ugly things the other party had done.

But after just a moment of thought, he gave up.

His own strength was not yet sufficient; if he were to force his way up to show off and offend the other party to death, no one would be able to save him.

"I know the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect. I have heard that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda is the continent's number one support-type martial soul, and your sect also has two Title Douluo presiding over it, right?" Ma Hongjun put away the long spear in his hand and looked at Ning Rongrong with a smile.

This young girl was one of the main reasons he had come here this time.

Otherwise, he would never have come to a godforsaken place like this.

"Yes! How about it, have you considered it?" Ning Rongrong summoned the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda to prove her identity.

"I appreciate your kind intentions, but I will not join."

"However, I have founded a Phoenix Academy, and I am its Principal. I wonder if you would be willing to join us?"

Ma Hongjun spoke up.

"Phoenix Academy?"

Ning Rongrong was stunned, and became a little interested: "Although you are strong, you are only at the Soul King level. Where would you get so much money and resources?"

"You don't need to worry about that. As long as you can join my academy, I will give you an unexpected surprise. For example, I might be able to help you solve the drawback that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect cannot break through to become a Title Douluo," Ma Hongjun said.

Although Ning Rongrong was stubborn, she was not a fool. She looked at Ma Hongjun with suspicious eyes and said: "I don't believe it. Even my father and two Title Douluo grandfathers cannot fix the drawbacks of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda. Although you are strong, you shouldn't boast like that, right?"

"What if it really is possible?"

"If you come and find it doesn't work, at most you've wasted a little time. If you don't come, you might miss a great opportunity and regret it for a lifetime," Ma Hongjun said.

"Your purpose in coming here wouldn't be to join this godforsaken, broken academy, would it?"

Ma Hongjun pointed to the dilapidated grounds of Shrek Academy and said.

"Don't you want to know why I am able to be so strong?" Ma Hongjun threw out another question that brought Ning Rongrong's curiosity to its peak.

Sure enough, as soon as this question came out, it immediately made Ning Rongrong incredibly curious, and her heart began to waver.

To be honest, she was truly tempted.

'That's right, at worst it's just wasting a little time. What if he really can change the drawbacks of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda? Wouldn't I regret it if I didn't go? And he doesn't look much older than me, yet he already has the strength of a Soul King, while I am only a Great Soul Master. He shouldn't be lying to me, right? The world is so big, anything can happen. What if he really does have it in his hands?'

Ning Rongrong muttered to herself.

What she did not know was that once she had this thought, it would be impossible to stop, and there would be no turning back.

At the same time, inside the academy, Dai Mubai helped the defeated Li Yusong up. Zhao Wuji, who had heard the commotion outside, walked out. After seeing the situation in front, his face darkened, and he revealed an angry expression: "What is happening?"

He directly questioned Dai Mubai and Li Yusong.

Although Li Yusong was not dead, he was seriously injured and had fallen into a coma. Dai Mubai explained the whole situation from beginning to end.

"To think there is someone so young who has reached the Soul King level and even defeated the Soul Emperor, Old Li?"

Zhao Wuji revealed a look of shock.

"Take him inside for treatment. I will take charge of the situation from here." Zhao Wuji looked at Ma Hongjun with a meaningful smile, and a trace of anger also flashed in the depths of his eyes.

No matter how monstrous the other party was, if they dared to cause trouble on Shrek Academy's turf, he, as the Vice Principal, had to provide some "loving education"!

"It's a pity the boss isn't here," he muttered to himself.

If he could, he would want to take Ma Hongjun as his disciple.

"Yes." Dai Mubai took Li Yusong and left.

Zhao Wuji walked out, and the aura naturally radiating from his body made the people outside silent as cicadas in winter.

"Those over twelve years of age whose soul power has not reached level twenty, leave automatically! Don't waste time!" As soon as he came out, seven spirit rings—yellow, yellow, purple, purple, black, black, black—appeared, and a giant bear also emerged, instantly causing the expressions of those watching the show to change drastically.

This was actually a seven-ring Spirit Saint-level powerhouse! Everyone who did not meet the criteria took their children and left.

In an instant, the scene fell silent.

"Another Spirit Saint!"

"Although Shrek Academy is simple, it already has two Spirit Saints and one Soul Emperor!"

"Teacher did not recommend the wrong place. For us, coming to Shrek Academy was the right choice!"

When Tang San saw this, his pupils shrank, and then he revealed a look of pleasant surprise.

Zhao Wuji was a Spirit Saint after all, so he naturally heard the conversation between Ma Hongjun and Ning Rongrong, though he only heard the latter part.

Such as the Phoenix Academy, the academy principal, and the stuff about recruiting people.

Suddenly, his anger flared up. So this person had come to poach talent from his Shrek Academy! This matter was absolutely intolerable! "What nerve! A mere Soul King, don't think that just because you beat a Soul Emperor you can run wild on the turf of my Shrek Academy!!!!"

"Old Li is old! But I am not old!"

"I've got Shrek Academy covered! Understand??"

Zhao Wuji pointed at Ma Hongjun and roared.

"Kneel down for me and apologize to our Shrek Academy! Otherwise, I will definitely break your legs!"

"Of course, you have one other choice, and that is to dissolve that Phoenix Academy of yours that I've never even heard of and join our Shrek Academy. The fact that you came to my turf to cause trouble, injured my academy's teacher, and poached our talent—I can let all of that pass, and I will even waive your entrance exam and grant you the qualification to become a disciple of my Shrek Academy directly!" Zhao Wuji's nose puffed out hot air, and his voice was loud and rough, especially terrifying.

Just standing there and letting out a roar like that could scare people who weren't strong enough into losing control of their bowels!!!

Seeing that things were about to succeed, only for an "unexpected intruder" to pop out, Ma Hongjun frowned, also feeling anger; a person who played with fire was never a person with a good temper.

"Although I am only a Soul King, I am enough to deal with a Spirit Saint like you!" Ma Hongjun said coldly.

"First Soul Skill: Wutong Tree Flowers Bloom!"

"Fourth Soul Skill: Phoenix True Sun!"

As he finished speaking, he soared into the sky, instantly releasing his First Soul Skill, and his Fourth Soul Skill also appeared, condensing into a massive fireball that he threw down toward Zhao Wuji.

With the enhancement of the Wutong Tree Domain, the power of all attribute strengths of the Phoenix True Sun was instantly increased by eighty percent!

At the same time, there was the enhancement of the Phoenix Nirvana Sutra, increasing its power once more! "Holy crap!"

Watching a massive sun descend, with such terrifying flames and high temperatures, Zhao Wuji's pupils constricted, and a look of panic was clearly visible on his face: What a terrifying soul skill!

The clothes on his body were burned away, and his iron armor was also incomparably scorching! (End of this chapter)
