Lin Xiao was already born handsome, and after experiencing several Evil Fire Body Temperings, each Evil Fire Body Tempering would optimize his appearance and figure.
And after the Evil Fire evolved into Ultimate Fire.
It ushered in a qualitative change in temperament.
Pure and flawless, like a Celestial Being.
No scenery is needed, just him standing there, and the place where he is is the most beautiful scenery.
The first reaction in Ma Hongjun's heart when he saw Lin Xiao.
Was fear and panic, but then a feeling of extreme suffocation and resentment rose up, and the burning jealousy was even more intense than the Evil Fire that burned his body!
Lin Xiao!
His skin, his appearance, his figure, his uprightness and temperament, the confidence and gentleness in his words, the firmness and composure in his eyes...
Even the five beautiful girls with their own merits standing behind him!
All of this was like a sharp dagger, tearing apart Ma Hongjun's disguise; like a pair of hard boots, trampling his self-esteem under his feet; like firewood that had dried to the extreme, intensifying the burning of his fire of jealousy!
But because of the cowardice in his heart.
He hid the devil in his heart, with a stiff smile on his face.
"Xiao... Brother."
Ma Hongjun's voice was extremely dry, like the sound of rough gravel rubbing.
Upon seeing this, the Shrek people were surprised that Ma Hongjun actually knew Lin Xiao? After all, one was as noble as a Phoenix, and the other was as wretched as a grass chicken;
The gap between the two was like the difference between clouds and mud.
——No matter how you look at it, they don't match.
Flender explained from the side, also helping Ma Hongjun to smooth things over.
"Hongjun and Lin Xiao grew up together since they were young. The two are childhood sweethearts. Both of them awakened the Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul back then. Hongjun chose to follow me, while Lin Xiao went out to travel on his own."
"I didn't expect that after many years, we would meet in such a way."
Flender's voice was a bit melancholy.
At the same time, he did not forget to inquire about information.
"By the way, Lin Xiao, how have you been these years?"
"Your strength is not bad, right?"
Lin Xiao smiled brightly.
"I'm standing here in good shape, so naturally I'm doing very well."
"As for strength... you will naturally know later."
Among the Shrek Seven Devils, Dai Mubai and Oscar looked at Lin Xiao with jealous eyes. It was purely the jealousy of a male who saw someone more attractive to the opposite sex than himself, which was quite primitive.
Ma Hongjun couldn't help but look at Lin Xiao's handsome face again, and was lost in thought.
Yu Tianheng looked at Dugu Yan, and seeing that she didn't even glance at him, an inexplicable anger rose in his heart.
Tang San, on the other hand, frowned slightly, feeling displeased because Xiao Wu had been staring blankly at Lin Xiao for quite a while.
Zhu Zhuqing had long expected to meet Lin Xiao at Heaven Dou Royal Academy, but she also had a sense of uncertainty, afraid that Lin Xiao had deceived her before. Now that she met him, she was full of surprise, yet she didn't dare to acknowledge him.
Dai Mubai's face turned green. His situation was similar to Tang San's, but Zhu Zhuqing was usually aloof and cold, and her behavior towards Lin Xiao was completely different from usual.
He clenched his fists secretly, his bones making cracking sounds. The tension in his fists caused his veins to bulge, and he thought to himself, 'I'll aim for this pretty boy's face later and see if he can still smile.'
"Tsk, he's so handsome, but it's a pity he's also the type who can't control his lower body."
Xiao Wu stared at Lin Xiao for a long time, and without thinking, she actually let out this sigh.
In her opinion, since his Martial Soul was the Evil Fire Phoenix.
Lin Xiao was already equivalent to Ma Hongjun.
Bah, they're all womanizers! It's just that Ma Hongjun is rotten inside and out, while Lin Xiao is "gold and jade on the outside, but rotten on the inside."
As soon as Xiao Wu said this, Yu Tianheng felt secretly pleased.
Lin Xiao smiled slightly, not caring.
On the contrary, the atmosphere among the group behind Lin Xiao changed instantly.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling looked at Xiao Wu coldly, Shui Binger glared at the Shrek Team with a pout, and Shui Yue'er clenched her fists righteously.
Even Yan Song and Yan Yu were indignant! As soon as Xiao Wu finished speaking, Ning Rongrong's sharp tongue was unleashed.
"What a country bumpkin, a wild thing created without parents, is it because you don't have parents that no one taught you? If no one taught you, then you have no manners?"
No parents...
These were originally insulting words, but they struck the hearts of Tang San and Xiao Wu.
It hit them right in the heart! The expressions on their faces changed abruptly! The Burning Maple Team and the Shrek Team were instantly at each other's throats! Meng Shenji quickly reprimanded, "Nonsense! Can't you speak properly? Why are you being so rude?"
He said this to Xiao Wu.
As for Ning Rongrong... he was a little afraid.
Xiao Wu's face flushed red, and in her anger, she couldn't control her mouth, and she blurted out:
"Am I wrong?!"
"The Evil Fire Phoenix Martial Soul has flaws. Every time the Evil Fire erupts, you need to find a woman to release the fire. Isn't your captain a womanizer? What's the use of being good-looking! In the end, he's still dirty!"
Xiao Wu launched a personal attack.
Lin Xiao was calm and composed, but Ma Hongjun's face turned liver-colored! He looked at Xiao Wu in disbelief.
So, that's what they've always thought of him? Ye Lingling couldn't help it and was about to join the battle.
Lin Xiao waved his hand, and the Burning Maple Team immediately quieted down.
"The Evil Fire Phoenix does have Martial Soul flaws."
"But Dean Flender, you should know why I left Soto City back then."
Flender sighed.
"Back then, Lin Xiao chose to endure the pain of the Evil Fire burning his body rather than go to a brothel to release the Evil Fire, which is why he chose to leave Soto City."
"However, it seems you've found a solution?"
Lin Xiao nodded, not evasive.
"I was fortunate enough to become a disciple of the Ye Family Head and Poison Douluo. Thanks to the guidance and help of both teachers, I managed to remedy the flaw in my Martial Soul after going through life and death."
Ma Hongjun's eyes lit up: "Xiao-ge!"
His voice suddenly became much more enthusiastic, as if his relationship with Lin Xiao had instantly returned to the past, when neither of them had awakened their Martial Souls and were just playmates.
Back then, he always admired Lin Xiao's intelligence.
He liked to follow Lin Xiao around, calling him "Xiao-ge" with every breath, eager to help Lin Xiao with chores, and each time he would receive small toys as rewards from Lin Xiao that other children envied.
Lin Xiao shook his head.
"My two teachers have exhausted themselves to remedy my flaw, using up all their resources."
His relationship with Ma Hongjun wasn't that good.
Lin Xiao was just magnanimous, not dwelling on the past, but that didn't mean he was stupid! The hope that had ignited in Ma Hongjun's eyes instantly turned to ashes.
Deep in his eyes, a hidden trace of hatred was concealed.
Lin Xiao pondered for a moment, then gave Ma Hongjun some advice.
"The Evil Fire cannot be allowed to run rampant. In my opinion, only by controlling the Evil Fire can one become its master. Hongjun, if you are determined, endure one instance of the Evil Fire burning your body, then come find me."
Ma Hongjun's emotions suddenly erupted, indignantly saying, "Xiao-ge, you refuse to help me, yet you pretend to be a good person?"
"No need to trouble you!"
Yu Xiaogang stepped forward, frowning, "The Evil Fire is tyrannical. Are you trying to kill Hongjun by telling him not to release it?"
"Alright, the reminiscing is over!"
"When do we start fighting?"
