In Douluo Continent, the Pope used me as a substitute for my first love.

Chapter 382 Huo Yuhao VS Ma Hongjun (Part 1)

"You filthy scoundrel! You're so young and already behaving badly. In broad daylight, do you intend to abduct a young woman?"

At this moment, Xiao Wu, though thinking to herself, still put on an indignant expression.

Upon hearing Xiao Wu's words, Ma Hongjun's face quickly darkened. He withdrew his lewd gaze from Xiao Wu, then waved his hand rudely and said, "This is our business, so stop meddling! If you don't want to be my woman, then get out of my way."

"You..."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Wu gritted her teeth. She was really angry now, thinking that she should teach this lecherous fat man a lesson first, and then slowly discipline him later.

Beside him, Tang San noticed Xiao Wu's expression and stepped forward without hesitation. Although he remembered this scene from his past life, he couldn't recall the specifics of his conversation with Ma Hongjun at this moment. So, almost instinctively, he adopted a righteous and awe-inspiring tone and said:

"Your name is Ma Hongjun, right? Please stop harassing this young lady."

Upon hearing this, Ma Hongjun looked at Tang San and then gave a disdainful snort.

"Who do you think you are? Daring to meddle in my business, looking for trouble?!"

Immediately, Tang San's face also darkened, and he stared at Ma Hongjun with a gloomy expression, asking:

"Who are you to us?"

"Whoever meddles, I'll take their place!"

Ma Hongjun's whiskers twitched, and then he laughed with a hint of sarcasm.

Tang San: ...You have already chosen your own death!

It seems that before taking this fatso as a real follower, I need to train him a bit first and show him what I'm capable of!

Thinking this, Tang San immediately moved, using the Ghost Shadow Step to kick towards Ma Hongjun.

Undeterred, Ma Hongjun raised his fist and charged at Tang San without hesitation. After a brief exchange, Tang San, a reincarnated God King with vast experience, stood firm, while Ma Hongjun, lacking any special tricks, stumbled back a few steps.

A hint of surprise flashed in Ma Hongjun's eyes, but looking at Tang San, he still refused to back down and said, "So you're a Soul Master too. No wonder you dare to meddle in my business."

Tang San smiled coldly at this, a hint of arrogance hidden deep in his eyes.

After being reborn for so long, is his moment of glory finally about to arrive?

Facing Ma Hongjun, his Blue Silver Grass was certainly no match for him. However, even relying solely on the Tang Clan's unique skills without using any hidden weapons, he was confident that he could hold his own against Ma Hongjun for a while. If he were to use hidden weapons now, Ma Hongjun would definitely be crushed by him.

"Hmph, since that's how it is, I'll show you what real strength is!"

At this moment, Ma Hongjun's voice came again, making Tang San's face darken even more.

"Phoenix, possess me!"

Ma Hongjun naturally didn't care about Tang San's expression at the moment, but quickly summoned his beast spirit, the Evil Fire Phoenix, and began to possess him.

Swish!

The next moment, a purplish-red light surged from Ma Hongjun's body. His short hair suddenly grew longer and converged towards the center, transforming into a mohawk-like hairstyle. Wings didn't appear, but the moment the purplish-red light emanated from his body, it immediately released intense heat. Two yellow spirit rings rose simultaneously from beneath his feet, long feathers extended from his exposed, thick arms, and his hands transformed into claws.

Tsk... You could say he doesn't resemble a "phoenix" at all; he looks more like a mismatched, unkempt pheasant. Hmm, if Ma Hongjun were to wear a middle parting and overalls, his image might be much better.

Faced with Ma Hongjun like this, Xiao Wu couldn't hold back and immediately burst out laughing, mocking him:

"Are there really phoenixes this fat? You look more like a country chicken to me!"

"Who are you calling a 'local chicken'?!"

Ma Hongjun flew into a rage, his first spirit ring suddenly lit up, and he was about to unleash his first spirit skill, Phoenix Fire Line, at Xiao Wu.

"Xiao Wu, be careful..."

At this moment, Tang San wanted to use his Blue Silver Grass to pull Xiao Wu into his arms, but he hadn't even summoned his spirit yet. Even if he had, with the current strength of his Blue Silver Grass spirit, he obviously wouldn't have enough time to entangle Xiao Wu.

Just as Tang San was about to use Ghost Shadow Perception to attack Ma Hongjun again and lure Ma Hongjun to switch his target from Xiao Wu to himself, Huo Yuhao suddenly moved.

Huo Yuhao grabbed Xiao Wu and led her to dodge Ma Hongjun's Phoenix Fire Line. Because he had to keep Tang San in mind, Huo Yuhao didn't use Ghost Shadow Tracking, but he was still quite fast and agile.

After narrowly dodging the straight-line impact of Ma Hongjun's first soul skill, Huo Yuhao's gaze narrowed slightly when he saw that Ma Hongjun was still able to use the turning of his body to fling up the eerie purplish-red fire line that would not go out and continue to attack the two of them.

Swish!

The next moment, his eyes lit up slightly, and he instantly activated his Spirit Eye Martial Soul, with two rings of spirit, one white and one yellow, rising from beneath his feet.

"Another Great Soul Master? But his first soul ring is actually ten years old... Heh."

Upon seeing this, Ma Hongjun, who was not far away, looked surprised for a moment, then quickly laughed disdainfully.

At this point, he could no longer fail to realize that the three people in front of him were probably the freshmen of Shrek Academy this year. However, he still wouldn't stop. Even though he was probably the same age as the three, he wanted to teach them a lesson as an "older student".

While pondering, Ma Hongjun glanced at Tang San and then unhesitatingly aimed all his attacks at Xiao Wu.

Two men and one woman... Ma Hongjun could vaguely sense that Xiao Wu was the center of this trio, and that their feelings for each other were likely quite complicated. In that case, he would simply target Xiao Wu.

Anyway, he's in a bad mood right now and just wants to have a good fight to vent his frustration. Even if he loses, it won't really matter to him.

But I never imagined that I would have the heart to destroy such a beautiful flower.

Ma Hongjun thought to himself with amusement, and soon activated his second soul skill, Phoenix Reborn in Flames, causing the flames on his body to become even more intense.

Seeing this, Huo Yuhao took the initiative to release Xiao Wu, then stepped forward and stood in front of Xiao Wu, his gaze sharp.

Don't misunderstand, he wasn't focused on protecting Xiao Wu at the moment. He also knew very well that with Xiao Wu's agility, she didn't actually need his protection.

He was just thinking that he hadn't performed well in Zhao Wuji's practical assessment yesterday, and now that he had met such a good opponent as Ma Hongjun, he was itching to fight him.
