Outside Shrek Academy, Zhao Ming found a quiet spot and got to work.
As Zhao Ming released his martial soul, Ma Hongjun felt an overwhelming suppression coming from it.
Under this pressure, even his soul power's circulation slowed down. His martial soul was the Evil Fire Phoenix, considered a powerful martial soul.
Although the Evil Fire Phoenix wasn't the sa as the Fire Phoenix, its combat prowess wasn't much weaker.
Yet, despite having such a martial soul, Ma Hongjun could feel the imnse suppression.
Could there really be a bird more powerful than a phoenix in this world? Ma Hongjun found it hard to believe, but it made him even more confident that Zhao Ming could cure him.
The difference between Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire Phoenix and a regular Fire Phoenix was the impurities in his martial soul. Zhao Ming's task was to expel these impurities.
At Zhao Ming's request, Ma Hongjun also released his martial soul.
Zhao Ming maintained his Undying Fire, letting it roast Ma Hongjun.
Only when the fire acted on Ma Hongjun did he realize the terror of Zhao Ming's martial soul. Without considering anything else, this fire alone could rank among the world's top martial souls.
"If you want a complete cure, you'll have to endure so pain," Zhao Ming said calmly, seeing Ma Hongjun's contorted expression.
Ma Hongjun's body had turned red, with sweat steaming off him. But the sweat evaporated instantly upon leaving his body, disappearing into the air.
Before long, black impurities began appearing on Ma Hongjun's body.
Once they appeared, they were quickly burned away. However, their essence was absorbed into Zhao Ming's body.
As the essence entered his body, Zhao Ming felt a surge of unprecedented vitality, making him slightly exhilarated.
Moreover, these impurities extracted from Ma Hongjun showed no adverse effects upon entering Zhao Ming's body.
Ti passed slowly, and under Zhao Ming's Undying Fire, Ma Hongjun's Evil Fire Phoenix fla visibly beca more pure.
Zhao Ming, too, was glowing with vitality, a sign of excessive yang energy.
After a while, a shrewd middle-aged man with black-frad crystal glasses approached them.
Zhao Ming recognized him as Flender.
Flender was staring at him in awe.
A twin martial soul?! Flender couldn't help but be astonished.
He had heard from Zhao Wuji about this new student's formidable abilities. His puppet martial soul enabled him to wield power comparable to a Soul Emperor, if not stronger.
Yesterday, Flender had been eager to see this prodigious student, but he held back, knowing that geniuses often had pride. Letting him know he was already under such scrutiny might make future managent difficult.
Despite this, Flender had broken his routine and co to the field early that morning. He was eager to see this exceptionally talented student.
However, he learned from Xiao Wu that Zhao Ming was helping Ma Hongjun remove the impurities from his evil fire.
Initially skeptical, Flender rushed over, worried that his precious student might get hurt.
Even though this was a student with near-demonic talent, Ma Hongjun had been under his care since he was six.
Rushing over, the scene before him left Flender even more shocked. He hadn't expected Zhao Ming to genuinely help Ma Hongjun purify his evil fire, nor did he expect this prodigious student to possess another martial soul. Although he didn't know what it was, he recognized it as a top-tier fire attribute martial soul.
Moreover, he felt a faint suppression from the martial soul, even as a Soul Saint!
Given the vast difference in their soul power, feeling such suppression ant Zhao Ming's beast martial soul was extraordinarily powerful.
With the last impurity refined, Ma Hongjun's martial soul had fully evolved into a Fire Phoenix.
A gleam flashed in Zhao Ming's eyes, unnoticed by anyone. Within Ma Hongjun's martial soul, a subtle black fla flickered in the eyes of the Fire Phoenix, then quickly vanished, becoming a trace of black in its gaze.
This change was extrely subtle, unseen by anyone.
There's no free lunch in the world.
Everything you gain cos at a cost. Having resolved Ma Hongjun's evil fire issue perfectly, making him a true Fire Phoenix, Zhao Ming couldn't risk raising a potential adversary.
By planting a seed of Undying Fire within Ma Hongjun's martial soul, Zhao Ming had a deeper motive.
If Ma Hongjun ever opposed him in the future, especially if he tried to compete for Bai Chenxiang, Zhao Ming could effortlessly deal with him. The Undying Fire was far more dangerous than any impurities.
Of course, Zhao Ming was a benevolent person. As long as Ma Hongjun behaved, he wouldn't target him without reason.
After all, both shared the attribute of fire in avian martial souls. The Phoenix's rebirth and the Undying Bird's immortality had a certain kinship.
Now that the evil fire issue was resolved, Ma Hongjun could live a normal life.
Cuihua, what a graceful and lively na!
It suggested an honest, good girl. While purifying Ma Hongjun's Phoenix fla, Cuihua watched from the side, her face full of genuine concern. Zhao Ming could tell she was a good girl!
Having resolved the evil fire and salvaged a relationship, Zhao Ming felt he had done enough.
So, when he pursued Bai Chenxiang, he could do so with a clear conscience.
"Thank you," Ma Hongjun said sincerely, feeling the pure fla energy in his hands.
"No need, you should thank Miss Cuihua. It was because of this kind, honest girl that I decided to help you. Even in the face of our intense fla, she stayed by your side. Even I was moved."
Hearing Zhao Ming, Ma Hongjun glanced at Cuihua. Her clothes were soaked with sweat, her face pale yet filled with a smile of joy and relief.
Seeing Cuihua like this, Ma Hongjun was moved! Previously, his relationship with Cuihua was largely due to the evil fire within him.
But now, seeing her like this, he was genuinely touched!
Even if Cuihua wasn't the most beautiful, she was honest. Her waist wasn't the slimst, but she was hardworking.
"Cuihua," Ma Hongjun called softly.
"Hongjun," Cuihua stepped forward, gazing at him intently.
Their eyes t, peace and harmony enveloping them.
Watching this scene, Zhao Ming smiled contentedly.
