"Brothers, who will go first?" As Song Tao's words fell, Li Xuan, Mo Chen, and Dou Tu also took their positions, facing each other. Li Xuan glanced at Mo Chen and Dou Tu before smiling and asking, "I'll go first." Dou Tu spoke up. After all, Dou Tu was the third brother; he couldn't let the second brother, Mo Chen, make the first move. Furthermore, Dou Tu's strength was slightly weaker than Mo Chen's, which would put less pressure on Li Xuan.
Upon hearing this, Li Xuan nodded. Then, with a thought, a profound light illuminated his body. This was the unique mark of the Divine Power Realm, a profound light that the world also called divine radiance. Seeing this, Mo Chen retreated, leaving only Li Xuan and Dou Tu on the field.
*Buzz!*
Dou Tu's expression turned serious. The next moment, a profound light also emanated from his body, clearly indicating that Dou Tu's physical strength had also reached the Divine Power Realm. Li Xuan's face showed a grave expression, as he was facing a core disciple of the Body Sect. In terms of both strength and physical toughness, Dou Tu was significantly superior to Li Xuan.
"Fight!"
Li Xuan stomped his foot fiercely, and in the next instant, he shot forward. Seeing this, Dou Tu nodded slightly and then also charged towards Li Xuan.
*Bang!*
Li Xuan and Dou Tu exchanged a punch, and then their figures became locked in combat. In less than ten breaths, they had each exchanged dozens of palm strikes. Terrifying shockwaves surged, kicking up clouds of dust. Seeing this, Song Tao waved his hand, and a barrier descended, enveloping the area. The residual shockwaves from Li Xuan and Dou Tu's clash then dissipated.
"Little Junior Brother's physical toughness doesn't seem weak," Mo Chen said as he walked up to Song Tao.
Song Tao nodded slightly and replied, "I heard that Little Junior Brother broke through to the Divine Power Realm in the Heavenly Abyss Pool. I didn't expect him to master the integration and application of this Divine Power Realm physical strength so proficiently in just one month on Juhe Peak."
"Eldest Brother, how long do you think Little Junior Brother can last?" Mo Chen asked with a smile after nodding.
Song Tao chuckled at this and said, "Third Brother's physical toughness is similar to Little Junior Brother's. Unless they fight to the death, it will be difficult to determine a winner in a short time. This match, I fear, will end in a draw."
A flicker of surprise crossed Mo Chen's eyes. His own physical toughness was only a notch stronger than Dou Tu's. If Li Xuan could fight Dou Tu to a standstill, then Mo Chen himself would not be able to suppress Li Xuan quickly.
At this moment, Mo Chen nodded slightly. It seemed that Li Xuan being accepted as a disciple by all six peak masters was not without reason; he indeed had some substance.
*Bang!*
With a fierce bang, both Li Xuan and Dou Tu were sent reeling back hundreds of meters.
"Alright, you two were both testing your physical strength. It seems difficult to decide a winner in this battle," Song Tao said as he waved his hand, dispelling the barrier, and announced loudly.
Li Xuan and Dou Tu both dissipated the profound light from their bodies upon hearing this, clearly realizing that continuing the fight was unnecessary. Just as Song Tao had said, they themselves were more aware of the outcome of this match.
"Little Junior Brother, your physical toughness is no weaker than mine. In time, I'm afraid even I won't be your match," Dou Tu said with a smile.
Li Xuan smiled and replied, "It's all thanks to Senior Brother holding back."
Dou Tu also smiled, naturally understanding that Li Xuan was giving him an out. Dou Tu was well aware of his own strength. His previous statement was heartfelt. After all, Li Xuan was now being taught by six peak masters, so his rate of improvement was naturally much faster than Dou Tu's.
"Alright, Second Brother, Third Brother, I still need to take Little Junior Brother to see other places. You'll have plenty of time to spar later," Song Tao said with a smile.
Mo Chen nodded and then looked at Li Xuan, saying, "In that case, I'll always be waiting for Little Junior Brother to spar."
Li Xuan nodded in response, "As long as Senior Brother doesn't find it troublesome, then I won't be polite."
"Of course, of course," Mo Chen replied with a smile, seeming particularly pleased with Li Xuan's straightforward nature.
"Let's go," Song Tao said with a smile, looking at Li Xuan.
"Second Brother, Third Brother, farewell," Li Xuan nodded and then cupped his fists in a salute to Mo Chen and Dou Tu.
Soon, Li Xuan turned and left with Song Tao.
"Second Brother, do you think Little Junior Brother used his full strength?" Dou Tu suddenly asked Mo Chen after Li Xuan had left with Song Tao.
Mo Chen blinked and replied, "As far as I know, Little Junior Brother is a sword cultivator."
"A sword cultivator?" Dou Tu's expression turned serious. After a moment of silence, he said with a hint of helplessness, "Our Little Junior Brother's future achievements will likely be extraordinary."
Mo Chen nodded and looked into the distance, "With six peak masters guiding him, Little Junior Brother will likely be participating in the disciple written examination."
