Morphology
The meaning 'the greatest degree of enjoyment' is directly and transparently derived from combining 'most' (a superlative marker) with 'fun' (enjoyment). This is a regular compositional superlative construction that follows basic grammar and is cross-linguistically common, so a B1 learner who knows the constituent words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Most fun comes from using most, which means the highest amount, with fun, which means enjoyment; imagine a 'fun meter' showing which activity fills the meter most, so the one that fills it highest is the 'most fun' one. That's why it means 'the greatest enjoyment'.
