Starting from the young master of Haotian Sect.

Chapter 253 Choice is more important than talent

The moment Tai Long displayed his martial soul and soul power, there was a heated discussion in the venue. In addition to being surprised at Tai Long's strength, there was also discussion that Meng Yiran was indeed the weakest one in the Wuhun Academy.

Hearing the discussions around her, Meng Yiran just played with her hair calmly. If it were in the past, she would definitely get angry and argue with others, but now, there were only two words in her mind: What's wrong?
She had originally considered leaving Spirit Academy to join the Academy of Exotic Beasts, where she would have been, if not captain, at least vice-captain. But now Meng Yiran had come to her senses: winning by chance is still winning, and being able to follow the right people is a skill!
Meng Yiran raised the corner of her mouth and looked at the group of sour soul masters who said they were weak with contempt. No matter how weak I am, I can win without doing anything and can defeat seven people at once.

Meng Yiran murmured softly, "Being a dog for the captain is better than being beaten like a dog by him."

Although Meng Yiran spoke softly, the Spirit Academy students were sitting relatively close, so with their strength, they could certainly hear him. Tang San and the others didn't react much, as Meng Yiran was telling the truth. However, Yan and Xie Yue's expressions were a little off, darkening.

Because the two of them were really beaten like dogs, and Meng Yiran won without doing anything.

So logically speaking, Meng Yiran originally belonged to Tang San's team, and their team defeated the Golden Generation, so Meng Yiran should be ranked fourth in the Wuhun Academy team, and the Golden Generation should be the last three.

Choice is more important than talent.

At this point, the focus returned to the field. After Tai Long summoned his martial spirit, Ma Hongjun, not to be outdone, summoned the Evil Fire Phoenix. From a distance, Ma Hongjun's martial spirit looked very similar to the Fire Phoenix, both red and engulfed in flames. However, a closer look revealed that the Fire Phoenix's eyes shone with an evil light, and it was not a true Fire Phoenix.

Ma Hongjun is only level 41, so he is much weaker than Tailong in terms of momentum.

"Possessed by a martial spirit!"

"Possessed by a martial spirit!"

Tai Long and Ma Hongjun shouted at the same time, and both of them were possessed by martial spirits at the same time. Ma Hongjun was wrapped in flames, and a pair of fire feathers appeared behind him. However, considering Ma Hongjun's body shape, he looked more like a turkey than a phoenix.

With a loud bang, the three-meter-tall Tyrone jumped high into the air, like a golden-haired King Kong, and punched down heavily, instantly shaking the entire fighting arena. Although the bird and beast spirits could fly, their disadvantage was that their defense was very weak, so they naturally did not dare to take Tyrone's attack head-on.

Ma Hongjun quickly retreated to avoid the punch, then activated his first soul ring, and a flame spurted out of his mouth, which was a one-way long-range attack skill.

"Hmph, you dare to show off your tricks in front of an expert!" Facing Ma Hongjun's flame laser, Tyrone also opened his mouth, and then a golden laser shot out from the depths of his throat.

Tailong's mouth laser is not even a soul ring skill, but an ability that comes with his martial soul after evolving through the Earth Dragon Golden Gourd. Just like Ma Hongjun can fly, Tailong's golden giant ape also has special abilities.

"what!"

Rumble! The two men clashed with each other, but it was obvious that Tailong, with his stronger soul power and martial spirit, was superior. The golden light wave instantly broke through Ma Hongjun's flame laser.

Ma Hongjun also knew that his soul power was eight levels behind and he couldn't fight head-on. He hurriedly flew into the sky and then used his second and third soul skills: "Second soul skill, Phoenix Rising in Flame. Third soul skill, Phoenix Wings Soaring in the Sky!"

Ma Hongjun's two soul skills were not offensive but rather status-enhancing. The second skill increased the temperature and power of his phoenix flames, while the third skill increased his flight speed and blast radius. With both skills activated, Ma Hongjun's eyes blazed with fire, and his fiery feathers flapped behind him, unleashing a barrage of fire that indiscriminately rained down on the arena below like meteors. His first skill, a hundred-year-old soul skill, was a minor ability with a very short cooldown; as long as his soul power was sufficient, he could use it every few seconds.

Boom boom, bursts of artillery bombardment were heard. Ma Hongjun's position in Shrek Academy was an explosive soul master. Like a turret, he could control his opponent and deal a fatal blow to him.

A continuous stream of flames bombarded the air, and the entire fighting arena was engulfed in scorching flames.

"Phoenix Roaring Sky Strike! The reason for your failure is that you can't fly, end it, big fool!!" Ma Hongjun shouted, and a shadow of a fire phoenix wrapped around his body, and magma erupted from the ground in an instant.

Ma Hongjun in the air was like a fire phoenix reborn from the magma, turning into a sharp phoenix sword and swooping down from the air.

Boom! This attack was Ma Hongjun's fourth soul skill, coming from a 4,500-year-old scorpion soul beast, the King of the Earth. It was incredibly powerful, and a terrifying heat wave swept across the entire arena.

"Sister, this fat guy from Shrek Academy is really not what you see. He has such terrifying destructive power." Shui Yue'er, who was sitting next to Shui Bing'er at Tianshui Academy, joked, "Sister, his martial spirit is very effective against your Ice Phoenix."

Shui Bing'er ignored her sister's teasing, narrowed her eyes slightly, and then shook her head and said, "He's going to lose."

Sure enough, the next second, when the flames in the field slowly fell, everyone present saw that Tyrone, whose golden hair was burnt black, opened the five fingers of his right hand, just like a football goalkeeper catching a violently shot football with one hand, and grabbed Ma Hongjun's head with one hand.

"Fatty, so what if you can fly? Your flames are not even as hot as the water in my bath." Although Tyrone's whole body was burned black, even his right hand that caught the soul skill with one hand was burned black by the phoenix flame, with his skin and flesh torn, but Tyrone was really tough.

Not only was he tough in words, his body was even tougher. He seemed not to be afraid of pain, and even when his skin was burned to pieces, he did not show a trace of pain. He did not even use any defensive soul skills, and just relied on his strong body to endure it.

"You! How is that possible!" Ma Hongjun was dumbfounded. He was a 41st level Soul Master, and he had actually withstood the attack with his mortal body after bursting out with all his strength! Even Boss Dai, the strongest physique in Shrek Academy, couldn't be so arrogant!
With a snap, Tailong grabbed Ma Hongjun, who was trying to escape, in his hand, just like holding a little bird.

"Roar!" Tyrone grabbed Ma Hongjun and slammed him into the ground, then his fists hit him like a storm.

Boom boom boom! It was like returning all of Ma Hongjun's attacks. "You just hit me, I'll hit you as many times as you hit me." Boom boom boom, punch after punch, each one leaving a huge hole in the fighting arena.

The master had already shouted surrender, but Tyrone seemed not to hear it and did not stop at all.

"Tyrone."

Whoosh! The fist blew up a cloud of dust. Tai Long's fist stopped at Ma Hongjun's face, which was bruised and swollen, and the spirit possession had been removed. Hearing Tang San's voice, Tai Long withdrew his fist and grinned: "Tui, you still dare to challenge the young master? You must get past me, Tai Long first! Ha, monster."
