Chapter 224Ma Hongjun, Death
"Ma Hongjun, you dare to threaten my Xiao Wu? You are seeking death!"
Not long after, under Tang San's murderous gaze, ready to strike down Ma Hongjun, that beastly pervert, Grandmaster's half-year-long hellish special training officially began.
After all, Yu Xiaogang had been preparing for a long time for the All-Continent Advanced Elite Spirit Master Academy Tournament half a year later.
As long as Shrek could become the victor, his, Yu Xiaogang's, name would be enough to completely shake the entire continent.
Time flew by, and in the blink of an eye, a month had passed.
On the outskirts of Heaven Dou City, Sunset Forest.
An old and a young, one thin and one fat figure, were leisurely walking through the woods of Sunset Forest, searching for Spirit Beasts.
And these two were, of course, Ma Hongjun, who had come out to hunt for a spirit ring, and his teacher, Flender.
After this period of special training, Ma Hongjun had finally broken through the thirtieth level.
He officially entered the ranks of Spirit Elder.
And in order to help Ma Hongjun better adapt to Grandmaster's training rhythm, Flender immediately took his beloved disciple to Sunset Forest to acquire a spirit ring without a second thought.
"Hehe, teacher, once I absorb a spirit ring, I'll be a thirteen-year-old Spirit Elder genius!" Ma Hongjun said to Flender with a chuckle.
"Yes, a genius, a genius! If you can control your evil fire, then you can truly be considered a genius!"
Flender spoke with a helpless expression regarding his disciple's inexplicable confidence.
"Teacher, haven't I been trying my best to control it? Haven't you seen that I haven't gone out to vent for a month? I haven't tasted original recipe chicken in a whole month!!" Ma Hongjun said with a wronged expression.
"Hmph, if you can endure, then keep enduring. As long as you don't die from it, endure to death..."
Just as Flender looked at Ma Hongjun's lewd smile with a helpless expression, Flender suddenly felt a powerful energy assailing him.
Without much hesitation, Flender immediately released his strongest seventh Spirit Ability, Owl True Body.
However, with just one exchange, Flender was sent flying by the sudden heavy blow.
And it was at this moment that Flender saw that it was not a Spirit Beast that attacked them, but a person...
A person with an incredibly strong physique, with eight spirit rings, two yellow, two purple, and four black, shimmering beneath his feet...
"No!!!!"
And just as Flender was confused about this Spirit Douluo-level powerhouse who suddenly attacked them, Flender's eyes instantly widened as he saw that the Spirit Douluo's true target was not himself, but his disciple....
Then, under Flender's heart-wrenching roar, his beloved disciple, who had just been chatting and boasting with him, had now been directly crushed into a puddle of mud by that Spirit Douluo's spirit power.
Seeing his beloved disciple go from a circle to a line like that, Flender instantly felt his heart shatter.
"Hongjun!"
"Hongjun!!!"
Then Flender rushed towards Ma Hongjun's direction like a madman.
And that Spirit Douluo, after killing Ma Hongjun, did not hesitate at all.
He turned and left directly, not caring about Flender, who was now looking at the puddle of mud that was Ma Hongjun with a heart-wrenching expression.
"No!!"
"No!!!!"
"..."
On the other side, after this Spirit Douluo, who had attacked and killed Ma Hongjun, had done so, he did not stay for long and quickly returned to a very large blacksmith shop.
As soon as he arrived, he was warmly welcomed and respected by the blacksmiths who were working.
However, he paid no attention to them and walked directly into the innermost and most luxuriously decorated room within the blacksmith shop.
Upon entering, he knelt down on one knee with a plop before a young man who was currently blacksmithing inside, and spoke with an extremely respectful expression.
"Young Master, Ma Hongjun is dead. You can rest assured..."
Upon hearing this, the young man who was hammering away also paused for a moment, then continued to hammer rhythmically.
"Hmm, you've worked hard. To have you, a Spirit Douluo, hunt down a quasi-Spirit Elder..."
"It's no hardship. This old servant, Tai Tan, is willing to go through fire and water for generations of the Tang Clan!"
The two people in the room at this moment were none other than Tai Tan, the clan leader of the Strength Clan, and Tang San, who was personally forging Hidden Weapons.
Half a month ago, Tang San was invited to the Strength Clan to give some pointers on the method of making Hidden Weapons.
It was then that Tai Tan recognized the Disorder Splitting Wind Hammer Method, and further recognized Tang San's identity.
Then, to the shocked and stunned gazes of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, Tai Tan, along with hundreds of young and strong men from the Strength Clan, knelt down together on the spot to greet Young Master Tang San!
And this assassination of Ma Hongjun was a decision Tang San had thought about for a long time.
For the next half a year, he and the others needed to undergo Grandmaster's special training, so there was no opportunity for him to poison anyone.
If he were to use poison, the target would be too obvious and easily discovered.
And if he didn't use poison and relied on Hidden Weapons, unless it was a one-hit kill, Ma Hongjun would eventually drag him into a prolonged battle.
At that point, it would be even more difficult to kill Ma Hongjun.
Therefore, to kill Ma Hongjun, the only way was to have Tai Tan, a Spirit Douluo, make a move. Not only would it be fast, but no one would be able to connect it to him!
Furthermore, not many people knew about his relationship with Tai Tan.
He had also asked the people of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School not to reveal his relationship with Tai Tan for the time being.
Therefore, having Tai Tan go was undoubtedly the best choice!
"Sigh, Ma Hongjun, Ma Hongjun, it's a pity I couldn't kill you with my own hands..."
If he could, Tang San actually still wanted to kill Ma Hongjun himself.
But there was no other way. His strength was insufficient, and he didn't want to wait any longer.
Therefore, he could only trouble Tai Tan to make a move.
On the other side, Flender, whose black hair had instantly turned gray due to Ma Hongjun's death, returned to Blue Tyrant Academy with Ma Hongjun's flesh paste.
When the others in the academy learned that Ma Hongjun had been forcibly killed by a Spirit Douluo, everyone was instantly stunned.
Especially Zhao Wuji and Li Yusong and the group of people who had watched Ma Hongjun grow up since he was young.
When they saw their boss's hair turn white because of Ma Hongjun's death, they too felt a deep sadness.
Liu Erlong, the youngest of the three but with the most explosive temper, originally wanted to immediately send people to Sunset Forest to investigate what had happened.
However, she was stopped by a single sentence from Yu Xiaogang.
"Erlong, Ma Hongjun is dead. Let's leave this matter to be investigated slowly after the tournament. Our primary goal now is the competition, not investigating Ma Hongjun's death!"
Hearing this, Flender immediately couldn't hold back and directly rebuked Yu Xiaogang angrily, "Xiaogang, what do you mean?! Hongjun was attacked and killed, do you not have even a shred of worry or pity?"
Looking at his old friend's red, despondent eyes, a trace of unbearable emotion flashed in Yu Xiaogang's eyes.
However, in the end, all his emotions were suppressed by the words "the tournament."
