We show that exotic spontaneous symmetry breaking appears in thermal topological phases by perturbing the exact solutions of quantum rotor models coupled to the three-dimensional toric code. The exotic Ising and XY transitions are shown to be in the same universality class, in drastic contrast to the conventional Wilson-Fisher classes without topological orders. Our results indicate that topological orders must be included to pin down the universality classes of thermal transitions in addition to order parameter symmetry and spatial dimension. We evaluate all the critical exponents and find that the exotic universality class is more stable under the couplings to acoustic phonons and disorder. Applying our results to experiments, we provide a plausible scenario in puzzlings of strongly correlated systems, including the absence of a specific heat anomaly in doped RbFe2As2.
