System, give me the treatment plan for Ma Hongjun's Martial Soul defect.
Nine Yang Divine Skill: 5,000,000 Emotion Points! Immortal Herb: Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower: 2,000,000 Emotion Points! External Spirit Bone: Phoenix Wings: 1,000,000 Emotion Points!
Oh ho!
Over thirty options.
Zhuge Lan glanced at them, but didn't intend to exchange for any.
To the expectant Flender, he said, "Since you know the Blazing Flame Sect's Sect Master, you should know the Three Earth Sects, right?"
Flender nodded affirmatively.
"The Three Earth Sects consist of the Blazing Flame Sect, the War Soul Sect, and the Undying Sect."
"As far as I know, the War Soul Sect's inherited Martial Soul is the Seven Kill Sword, which is the same Martial Soul as the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect's Title Douluo."
"As for the Undying Sect, I've only heard a little about them, but I don't know much."
"Could it be that Zhuge, you're from the Undying Sect?"
Zhuge Lan replied.
"The Undying Sect's Martial Soul is the Nine Hearts Begonia, a pure healing-type auxiliary Martial Soul."
"As for me and the Three Earth Sects, we have absolutely no connection whatsoever."

[Emotion Points +666]
[Emotion Points +233]
The four people present were speechless.
What's the point of you saying that?
"Don't worry about where I'm from," Zhuge Lan chuckled, "I have at least thirty ways to dispel the evil fire of Ma Hongjun's Martial Soul."
[Emotion Points +7777]
[Emotion Points +1999]
Ma Hongjun, holding the "historical record," slid on his knees and lunged for Zhuge Lan's thigh.
His movements were so exaggerated that his cape flew off.
Zhuge Lan was scared stiff!
He immediately used Spiral Nine Shadows to its limit, creating three afterimages and retreating over ten meters.
He was terrified of actually having close contact!
[Emotion Points +6666]
Flender watched the three afterimages disappear, his eyes filled with shock!
With his experience…
It was obvious that this wasn't a spirit skill or a spirit bone skill.
Instead, it was a self-created spirit skill, like the Great Sumeru Hammer or Dragonification!
How could an ordinary family possibly master such a powerful self-created movement spirit skill?
Hidden family!
The kind that didn't seek fame or fortune, quietly cultivated in their own territory, and produced a constant stream of geniuses.
No lower limit, unknown upper limit.
The only certainty was – this Zhuge Lan truly had some skills.
"Ma Hongjun!" Flender scolded, "Although your Evil Fire erupted earlier, you still took action. Aren't you going to apologize?"
Ma Hongjun nodded repeatedly.
"Brother Zhuge, I was wrong just now!"
"From now on, you're my brother!"
"If you say go east, I definitely won't go west!"
"Please, please save me, Brother!"
"I've had it so hard these past few years!"
His attitude was incredibly sincere.
But, most importantly, the emotion points on his head were still jumping out in the thousands.
Zhuge Lan pretended to ponder, trying to extract as much value as possible.
After the emotional benefits from his words diminished, he spoke slowly.
"The Nine Heavens Neon Phoenix is a top-tier beast Martial Soul, even stronger than the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon."
"It's not much weaker than a god-level Martial Soul."
"Ma Hongjun's situation is that he suffered from congenital developmental issues, so when he awakened his Martial Soul, he couldn't fully handle such a powerful Martial Soul, resulting in a benign, incomplete mutation."
"It's similar to the situation of Yu Xiaogang from the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon clan. He possesses the Martial Soul fusion skill, Golden Holy Dragon, which was the Martial Soul he was originally meant to awaken."
[Emotion Points +4999]
Flender's eyes lit up, his emotions running high.
But he didn't interrupt.
Zhuge Lan continued, "That's how the Evil Fire Phoenix is formed, a powerful but flawed Martial Soul."
"I see Ma Hongjun relying on releasing his desires to vent the evil fire, like lust and gluttony. That's the lowest level."
He paused.
Looking at Flender and Ma Hongjun, he just wouldn't speak.
[Emotion Points +7777]
Ma Hongjun was about to jump out of his skin!
Hey!
Just say it already!
You're killing me!
Still, Flender understands "the ways of the world" better.
"Zhuge, just state your conditions."
"I will do my best to fulfill them."
See!
That's the attitude when asking for a favor.
Zhuge Lan said directly, "I snuck out this time, and I didn't bring much money with me."
He gave Flender a "you know" look.
[Emotion Points +4444]
As a miser, he was heartbroken.
But... He looked at the disciple he had raised and sighed helplessly.
"Your tuition for admission is 100 Gold Soul Coins. I'll waive it for you."
[Emotion Points +1111]
"Only 100 Gold Soul Coins?"
Zhuge Lan pouted and said—
"Then I'll tell you an equivalent piece of information."
"A supremely yang and fiery cultivation method can help him manage his evil fire."
"Not only will it stop affecting his emotions, but it will also speed up his cultivation."
"The Blazing Flame Sect used to have similar cultivation methods, but I suppose they were lost."
"You can try looking for families that specialize in fire-attribute Martial Souls and ask them if they have any."
[Mood Points +2999]
[Mood Points +1999]
Flender and Ma Hongjun glared at him resentfully.
What's the difference between saying that and saying nothing at all? Without a cultivation method, it's all useless! Wait a minute!
"Technique?" Ma Hongjun asked, puzzled. "What's that? Something to eat?"
Flender looked thoughtful, but didn't say anything.
"Ignorant!"
Zhuge Lan sighed—
"When魂力 is circulating, based on different routes and attributes, it can achieve special effects like accelerated cultivation, self-recovery, compensating for flaws, and generating energy."
"So Tang San cultivated a certain technique, and his aura is relatively moderate and peaceful, giving him an advantage in cultivating his mind."
"But compared to the technique I cultivate, it's…"
Zhuge Lan trailed off.
As if he'd said too much, he clammed up.
This piqued everyone's curiosity.

[Emotion Points +1999]
Watching Zhu Zhuqing's runaway Emotion Points, Zhuge Lan chuckled inwardly.
—Another point to hold over you.
"I will look into this, but it will be difficult to achieve anything in the short term," Flender said, looking troubled. "Zhuge, isn't there anything that can produce immediate results?"
"Yes."
Zhuge Lan rubbed his index finger and thumb together, alternating.
You've certainly got the money! [Emotional Points +1111]
Flender gritted his teeth!
He took out a money pouch from his bosom and reluctantly tossed it to Zhuge Lan.
"There are 500 Gold Soul Coins in here, which is the registration fee I just collected. I'm giving it all to you!"
[Emotional Points +1111]
[Emotional Points +2222]
[Emotion Points +3333]
Zhuge Lan weighed the money pouch, watching Flender's soaring Emotion Points.
Very happy.
Sure enough, attacking the enemy's weakness was the way to make a fortune.
What's wrong with being stingy? If used in the right way, it's a good habit.
He spent 10,000 Emotion Points to exchange his own belt for a real Storage Belt.
He put away the money pouch.
Zhuge Lan then pouted, "Forget it, I see you don't have much money anyway."
"I'll do a good deed and tell you this news for free."
"Immortal Herb: Cockscomb Phoenix Sunflower."
"External Spirit Bone: Phoenix Wings."
"Primal Chaos Exotic Beast Inner Core."
Zhuge Lan spoke in one breath.
He listed over thirty methods.
Flender and Ma Hongjun, however, were…
