Chapter 67: Give Him Two Big Slaps to Help Him Remember

Ma Hongjun's figure flew out from the smoke, yet the Phoenix Armor on his body was completely unscathed.

"Damn it, what kind of armor is this, to be so incredibly hard!"

Gui Mei, meanwhile, was coughing incessantly; seeing the energy scorched by the terrifying flames, he immediately shook it off, his expression unsightly and ferocious.

As a dignified Level 95 peak Title Douluo, he was actually unable to take down a Soul Emperor brat in one go! Even if this brat was a bit of a monster, he possessed an absolute crushing advantage in level!

"Gui Mei, how dare you come here to run wild! This is the decision you will regret the most!!"

"Spirit Hall, I have also noted down this debt!"

Ma Hongjun said coldly, flames condensing into a long spear before him; as he brandished it, he had already charged to before Gui Mei, his killing intent exposed.

Gui Mei's expression was cold and grim as he said: "For a Soul Emperor to possess the strength to battle a Title Douluo, I absolutely cannot leave you alive today!"

"Hmph, the Spirit Hall is only capable of these amateur, low-class tricks; if you can't obtain a genius, you can only destroy them in the shadows! Bah! Trash Spirit Hall!" Ma Hongjun mocked with disdain.

"Audacious! To dare insult the Spirit Hall, die!"

"Seventh Spirit Skill: Avatar of the Spirit!"

Gui Mei was furious.

Holding a bone staff, he transformed into his true form.

His overall attribute strength directly skyrocketed by two hundred percent!

He collided head-on with Ma Hongjun's long spear! Bang bang bang bang bang bang!!!!!!!!!!!! Boom boom boom!!!!!!!!!!! In an instant, a great battle was on the verge of breaking out! This was a battle belonging to the two of them! Both sides were very fast, trading blows back and forth.

Both were unleashing their full power!

Two beams of light flew to the sky one moment and fell to the ground the next.

It seemed that neither side had gained any advantage.

"Fourth Soul Skill: Ghost Shadow!"

After landing, Gui Mei unleashed his soul skill.

One after another, black ghost shadows appeared from the ground, rapidly locking onto Ma Hongjun ahead and charging at him.

"A petty trick, how dare you show off your axe before a master?"

Ma Hongjun said with disdain, the Phoenix mark appearing within his pupils; he directly activated the Phoenix Poyang Tong, seeing through all illusions and reaching the origin—the past, present, and future were all within his grasp.

He condensed Phoenix Flame onto his long spear, sweeping out waves of flame spear-qi toward the front, left, right, and rear to counter them.

Rumble!! Bang bang bang!!! —

"This guy is too bizarre; I must finish this quickly. If I drag this out, people from the Heaven Dou Empire and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect will arrive, which will be disadvantageous for me." Seeing that he still hadn't succeeded, Gui Mei frowned, thinking with a grave expression.

"Hehehe, brat, you can look after yourself, but can you look after everyone else?"

"I will give you one more chance: join the Spirit Hall and serve! Otherwise, my other partner, a Level 95 peak Title Douluo, will find your remaining students and slaughter them all!"

Gui Mei's figure slipped into the ground, his sinister voice appearing all around Ma Hongjun, and clusters of black shadows gradually emerged from the ground as well.

One by one, ghost hands reached out from within the shadows, like soul-snatching hands from hell, wanting to drag Ma Hongjun into hell to receive punishment.

"This guy is like a loach." Ma Hongjun felt displeased inside; you are a dignified Level 95 peak Title Douluo, and you're playing these games with me?

But he knew that the moment the Spirit Hall had set their sights on his other students, the last bit of goodwill he had for the Spirit Hall vanished.

These damned guys, are they really this base? Compared to Tang San and Tang Hao, he now detested this style of the Spirit Hall even more.

It was no wonder they would eventually be wiped out; it wasn't without reason.

They destroy any genius they see.

Of course, this didn't mean he liked Tang San and Tang Hao either; after all, those two jerks already held a grudge against him, and there was no room for reconciliation.

In other words, his future enemies were the Spirit Hall, Tang San, and perhaps even more! But he was not afraid! Come!

Your slaughter against me will not only fail, but will instead accelerate my growth!

Fortunately, Ma Hongjun had anticipated this and had Dugu Bo secretly protect Ning Rongrong and the others.

And if they wanted to run, no one could catch them!

"Is that so? Then I'll give you one chance too: leave the Spirit Hall and pledge loyalty to my Phoenix Academy." Ma Hongjun's voice was calm; facing the many incoming attacks, he flapped his wings and used Phoenix Transformation to reach the horizon.

All of Gui Mei's attacks missed! "I'm done playing with you; since you like burrowing so much, I'll just flip this whole earth over!" Ma Hongjun said lightly. They were already quite far from the academy.

At worst, he could just douse it with Resurrection Dew.

"Fifth Soul Skill: Phoenix Sun Flare!"

Ma Hongjun violently shot the long spear in his hand toward the ground; under the Phoenix Poyang Tong, Gui Mei's figure had nowhere to hide.

But being underground all the time was very annoying.

A giant pure-blooded Phoenix stood tall in the firmament, shooting out a Phoenix Flame; nine large fireballs rapidly condensed in front, and for every one the flame penetrated, its power doubled! Once all nine were penetrated, it was a nine-fold increase! The power was terrifying! It struck straight into the earth!

Beneath the ground, Gui Mei was greatly alarmed.

"Ninth Spirit Skill: Infinite Ghost Shadow Devour!"

He unleashed his strongest finishing move underground.

Countless ghost shadows gathered in front, forming a black hole-like object with powerful devouring force, wanting to use this move to swallow the ray.

Bang! However, the moment it made contact, he realized his thinking had been a bit naive.

The power of this thing exceeded his imagination! Boom!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A blast even greater than all the previous ones combined appeared.

A massive mushroom cloud shot into the sky!

The entire Phoenix Mountain shook violently! Those far away in the Heaven Dou Imperial Palace also discovered something was wrong.

"This commotion is from Phoenix Mountain, quickly send people to check!" Emperor Xue Ye issued the order directly.

"Uncle Snake, go quickly and see what the situation is?" At the Taizi Fu, Qian Renxue was also startled and hurriedly ordered the Snake Lance Douluo to investigate.

Inside the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect, they also felt this terrifying high-temperature heatwave.

"This familiar high-temperature flame, it's Ma Hongjun!"

"That direction is Phoenix Mountain, go quickly and see what is happening!"

"Could it be that you've clashed with a Title Douluo again?"

"Tang Hao?"

Chen Xin, Ning Fengzhi, and Gu Rong's expressions changed, and they all stood up and rushed toward Phoenix Mountain.

Boom! "Pfft! Cough, cough."

Ma Hongjun pierced through the smoke and stepped on Gui Mei's chest.

At this moment, Gui Mei was coughing, his Armor was damaged, his whole body was charred, and his injuries were severe.

He could not believe that he would be reduced to such a pathetic state by a Soul Emperor.

It was simply too stifling! "Keep shouting, why have you stopped?"

"Weren't you very arrogant? You wanted to kill me? Kill my students?"

Ma Hongjun looked down from above and mocked.

He slapped Gui Mei across the face.

Slap! "You actually dare to humiliate me like this!" Gui Mei was furious, but the injuries on his body caused him great pain, and in his anger, he aggravated his wounds and spat out blood.

Slap! "Keep shouting?"

Ma Hongjun did not indulge him and let another slap fall, directly beating Gui Mei until he had no temper left.

"The vitality of a Title Douluo is indeed tenacious; you haven't even died from this."

Ma Hongjun mocked.

"Alright, I'll send you on your way. After you die, I'll also find a chance to send your Old Chrysanthemum down to meet you."

A long spear appeared in Ma Hongjun's hand, its cold, murderous light filling Gui Mei with fear.

"Don't kill me... I was only acting under orders... I am willing to join Phoenix Academy."

In the end, Gui Mei caved.
