Douluo Continent Episode 12 Recap
> Douluo Continent Recap
Ma Hongjun was completely out of control, his whole body was like a large fireball, and everywhere he went, raging flames ignited. School head Lan De arrived in time to subdue him, but Ma Hongjun's body was still on fire, and the fire would continue to burn. The entire village would be burned down soon. Lan De could defeat Ma Hongjun and suppress him, but he couldn't put out the great fire, unless Ma Hongjun was awakened or killed.
Even if Ma Hongjun was awakened, he would quickly exhaust his Martial Soul and life, and the final outcome would still be death. Disregarding Lan De's dissuasion, Tang San decided to try and wake up Ma Hongjun. He endured the pain of being scorched by the fire to pull Ma Hongjun up and persuade him to put away his Martial Soul. Ma Hongjun hated the village and the village chief.
Tang San earnestly persuaded him, promising to continue being his brother and asking the school head to be his teacher. Tang San encouraged Ma Hongjun to bravely face the present and create his own world. Ma Hongjun was moved by his sincere words and immediately put away his Martial Soul. The great fire instantly extinguished. Ou Si Ke brought a basin of cold water and splashed it on Ma Hongjun.
Seeing the fire extinguished, he thought it was his own doing and felt smug. Dai Mubai, Tang San, Ou Si Ke, and others came together to confront the village chief and demand that he hand over the medicine for mutated Martial Souls. The village chief was forced to take out the only bottle of medicine left, repeatedly claiming it was given to him by someone named Bule.
The village chief had given this medicine to everyone in the village, and Bule had also instructed him to send the Soul Masters who successfully mutated to Suotuo City Soul Fighting Field to participate in matches. If the Soul Master won, Bule would actively contact the village chief. Tang San gave the bottle of medicine to Ma Hongjun to handle. Mutated Martial Souls had always been a problem that Martial Soul Hall had not overcome.
Hu Liena wanted to buy the medicine from Ma Hongjun and send it to Martial Soul Hall for research, so that more Soul Masters like the villagers of Yehuo Village could rise up. She promised Ma Hongjun an unimaginably high price. Ma Hongjun resolutely refused. This medicine had killed his father, and he didn't want more people to suffer this kind of pain. Dai Mubai, Tang San, and others took Ma Hongjun away from Yehuo Village.
Tang San asked Lan De to keep Ma Hongjun. Lan De knew he didn't have money for tuition but still agreed to accept him. Ou Si Ke told Ma Hongjun that after graduating, he should serve Shi Lan Ke School. Lan De took the students back to the school, prepared bedding for Ma Hongjun, and asked Dai Mubai, Ou Si Ke, and others to look after Ma Hongjun.
The school head called Tang San and Xiao Wu away to see Yu Xiaogang. To thank Tang San for saving his life, Ma Hongjun voluntarily helped him wash his sheets. Ou Si Ke insisted that he was the one who saved Ma Hongjun, and vividly described how he woke Ma Hongjun up by splashing him with cold water, intending to get Ma Hongjun to wash his sheets too.
Dai Mubai couldn't stand it and couldn't help but tease Ou Si Ke a few times. Yu Xiaogang reminded Tang San and Xiao Wu to stay away from Hu Liena. Lan De felt that Yu Xiaogang was too sensitive, saying that Hu Liena came for Dai Mubai and wouldn't harm Tang San. Ou Si Ke thought Ma Hongjun's experience was very dramatic and wanted to write it down to make a fortune. He tried his best to please Ma Hongjun.
Just then, Ningrongrong, the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, arrived at Shi Lan Ke School in a dusty state to register with the school head. Ou Si Ke was deeply attracted by her clear and refined appearance and didn't recover for a long time until Ningrongrong woke him up. He enthusiastically helped Ningrongrong carry her luggage. Ningrongrong proactively greeted Ma Hongjun, but Ma Hongjun remained expressionless and said nothing.
Ningrongrong became angry and embarrassed, speaking rudely to Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun suddenly lost control and attacked Ningrongrong. Dai Mubai rushed over upon hearing this and quickly subdued Ma Hongjun. Ma Hongjun suddenly became clear-headed and repeatedly apologized to Dai Mubai, then fainted. Everyone quickly carried Ma Hongjun into the dormitory. Yu Xiaogang diagnosed that Ma Hongjun's condition was temporary loss of control caused by his Martial Soul mutation. Ou Si Ke was so scared he avoided him.
Xiao Wu took Ningrongrong to see Lan De and briefly introduced the situation at Shi Lan Ke School. Ningrongrong was very disappointed with the school's facilities and accommodation conditions. Lan De came to see Ningrongrong upon hearing the news. Ningrongrong took out a letter of recommendation from her father, Ning Fengzhi. Lan De was completely unconvinced and used the excuse that this year's enrollment was full.
Ningrongrong promised to waive the money Lan De had borrowed from the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect. Lan De immediately changed his mind and accepted Ningrongrong as a student. By now, Shi Lan Ke School had a total of seven students. Early in the morning, the school head told Ningrongrong to run twenty laps to train her stamina. Ou Si Ke voluntarily accompanied her. Ningrongrong suspected Lan De was deliberately targeting her.
She didn't even finish one lap before going shopping in Suotuo City. Ou Si Ke had to finish the run alone. Ma Hongjun was worried about going berserk again, so he surrounded his bed with iron plates. Tang San felt this wasn't necessary and firmly believed Ma Hongjun could control his Martial Soul. Dai Mubai made sarcastic remarks from the side, claiming only true strong individuals could do that. Ma Hongjun was greatly angered.
Tang San didn't believe it and swore to change this situation. Zhu Zhuqing's purpose in coming to the school was to become stronger, and the first step was to defeat Dai Mubai. Xiao Wu's goal was to defeat Lan De, because defeating Lan De would allow her to change the school's rules, and then she could enter the boys' dormitory. Zhu Zhuqing advised Xiao Wu not to trust men easily.
Xiao Wu thought Tang San was very good and also revealed that Hu Liena had come for Dai Mubai. Ningrongrong didn't return to the school until it was dark. Lan De severely reprimanded her in person, knowing she hadn't finished her run, and listed everything she had done in Suotuo City. Ou Si Ke tried his best to defend Ningrongrong. Lan De advised Ningrongrong to leave the school as early as possible.
Ningrongrong was unconvinced, thinking the other students in the school were not as powerful as her. Lan De then had everyone demonstrate their Martial Souls and skills. Only then did Ningrongrong realize that everyone except Xiao Wu was stronger than her.
