Aotian looked at He Wu in shock, clearly not expecting him to propose such a condition.
It should be noted that although He Wu was extremely skilled in the art of refining, his strength ranked only ninth in the Inner Academy.
After defeating Luxiong, Aotian had risen to sixth place. If they were to fight, wouldn't He Wu be seeking punishment?
He Wu seemed to see the doubt in Aotian's heart and smiled, saying:
"Aotian brother, I know I can't compare to you, but as a refiner, my strongest asset is not Mystical Energy, but Soul Power. Today, let's spar using only Soul Power. If you can defeat me, then you can command us brothers as you wish!"
Aotian's eyes sparkled with understanding as he grasped He Wu's intention.
Although he had used ancient alchemy and refining techniques as leverage to entice the He Brothers into agreeing to join the Starry Radiance Society, deep down they were still somewhat reluctant since he did not possess those skills himself.
However, asking them to give up was a difficult request. Therefore, they needed a reason that would justify their decision.
If he could defeat He Wu using only Soul Power, it would undoubtedly imply that if he were also skilled in alchemy and refining, his level would certainly be higher than theirs.
This would help alleviate the He Brothers' lingering reluctance.
With this realization, a faint smile appeared on Aotian's lips as he said:
"Why don't you brothers come at me together? I will only use Soul Power to contend with you. If I lose, then consider it as if I never came today. As for the ancient alchemy and refining techniques, I will gladly offer them up."
The He Brothers' eyes lit up as they responded:
"Is this true?"
"True!"
Since he wanted to dispel the reluctance in the hearts of the He Brothers and make them willingly follow him, Aotian planned to defeat both brothers at the same time. Only in this way could he earn their respect.
After exchanging glances, the He Brothers stepped forward together and said in unison:
"Aotian brother, we won't take advantage of you. If you unfortunately lose, as long as your Starry Radiance Society encounters an unsolvable crisis, we will do our utmost to help. If we lose, we will join the Starry Radiance Society and share its glory and shame from then on!"
Upon hearing the He Brothers' words, Aotian couldn't help but nod in his heart.
The character of these two brothers was definitely not in question. If they hadn't expressed their intentions afterward, Aotian would have been hesitant to fully trust them. Fortunately, they did not disappoint him.
This further solidified Aotian's determination to recruit these two brothers into the Starry Radiance Society.
"Alright, let me see how accomplished the renowned He Brothers of Xuantian Academy are in the path of the soul!" Aotian declared loudly.
"Aotian brother, please teach us!"
As soon as the He Brothers finished speaking, an invisible force suddenly surged from their bodies. The dry branches and leaves on the ground were instantly blown away.
Feeling this intangible power, Aotian's expression became serious.
Late-stage Level One.
The soul cultivation of the He Brothers was at the late stage of Level One.
Thinking of this, Aotian couldn't help but regret being a bit overconfident. After all, those who made it into the top ten of the Inner Academy were all quite capable.
However, now that the arrow was nocked, he had no choice but to hope he could defeat the He Brothers.
"Aotian brother, be careful!"
He Dan shouted sternly, and immediately, an invisible Soul Power surged towards Aotian, carrying a faint soul pressure.
He Wu was not idle either; his Soul Power transformed into a wall, tightly surrounding Aotian, forcing him to take He Dan's attack head-on without any chance to escape.
A breath of white mist slowly escaped from Aotian's mouth, and then his eyes deepened, resembling a vast starry sky that drew people in.
"Boom!"
A torrent of immense Soul Power erupted from Aotian's eyes, crashing against He Dan's Soul Power like a towering wave.
"Bang!"
An invisible force spread out from the point of collision between the two Soul Powers, causing the surrounding flowers and trees to sway as if caught in a fierce wind.
Snow Qincheng nearby also showed a hint of apprehension in her eyes. The residual waves generated by the clash of Aotian's Soul Power and He Dan's Soul Power made her soul tremble slightly.
Then, a surge of intensely cold Mystical Energy erupted from Snow Qincheng's body. Layer upon layer of defenses formed around her body, ensuring that the soul pressure could not affect her.
At this moment, Snow Qincheng finally understood, after witnessing the battle among the Soul Practitioners, that the He Brothers had been holding back during their fight with him. Otherwise, even if he could win, his soul would undoubtedly suffer some damage.
"Cough, cough."
Just then, He Dan couldn't help but cough, a faint trace of blood appearing at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were dim and lifeless.
Seeing this, He Wu exclaimed in shock, "Big Brother, are you okay?"
He Dan shook his head, wiped away the blood at the corner of his mouth, and looked seriously at the opponent in front of him.
At that moment, Aotian's face appeared quite pale, with a hint of fatigue in his eyes. Clearly, Aotian had gained some advantage in his fight against He Dan.
"Aotian's Soul Power is indeed incredibly strong; I, He Dan, am ashamed!" He Dan's tone carried an undercurrent of exhaustion.
Aotian forced a smile and said, "He Dan, you are being modest. I'm not feeling great either."
He Dan and He Wu exchanged glances, seemingly communicating silently about something. Then He Wu spoke up:
"Aotian, my brother and I have discussed it. If you can break our move, we will acknowledge you as our leader and join the Starry Radiance Society!"
Upon hearing this, Aotian did not show any surprise; instead, he felt a heavy weight in his heart. He knew that the He Brothers' next attack would surely be even more terrifying.
However, Aotian was not a soft persimmon to be easily squeezed. Although he felt a bit heavy-hearted, there was no trace of fear on his face. Instead, he eagerly said:
"Make your move!"
The He Brothers exchanged glances and together formed a series of mysterious hand seals. Their Soul Power surged violently as they completed the seals.
Then, the two brothers' Soul Power bizarrely fused together and rapidly spread around Aotian.
Immediately after, a roar erupted from the mouths of the brothers:
"Death Cage!"
As soon as the words left their lips, the Soul Power enveloping Aotian transformed into an invisible cage, trapping him within its confines.
A suffocating aura of death permeated the entire cage...
