"Oh?!" Xu Tianyang's mental force, backed by the Tianmeng Ice Silkworm's origin, covered an area of a thousand li around Star Luo City. At this moment, he seemed to see an interesting scene, and a curve of amusement tugged at the corner of his mouth.
"Something interesting seems to have happened."
"Was there an accident?" Yang Wudi looked at Xu Tianyang cautiously. After their brief time together, he would not underestimate this young man who was only a Level 39 Spirit Master.
"Nothing, just a good show of 'brotherly love and respect' playing out." Xu Tianyang chuckled lightly, piloting his flying spirit tool towards a certain direction in Star Luo City.
Seeing this, Yang Wudi followed closely, not leaving his side.
In a hidden corner outside Star Luo City, two similar golden-haired figures stood facing each other.
The two were Dai Mubai and Dai Weisi. The former was twelve years old this year, a Level 27 Spirit Grandmaster. The latter was eighteen years old this year, a Level 41 Spirit Ancestor. The difference in their strength could be described as heaven and earth.
The six-year age gap made Dai Mubai see no hope of defeating Dai Weisi. He didn't want to die, so he planned to escape this suffocating Star Luo Empire. Tonight's chaos happened to give him an opportunity.
Dai Weisi, on the other hand, had discovered Dai Mubai's intentions. Dai Mubai planned to escape amidst the chaos, so why shouldn't he take advantage of the chaos to eliminate future troubles forever?!
Therefore, this scene unfolded before them.
"My good brother, where are you going?" Dai Weisi smiled as he looked at Dai Mubai opposite him, his face filled with arrogance, and his eyes revealing disdain.
"Dai Weisi, where I go is none of your business." Dai Mubai looked at Dai Weisi, who was blocking his way, and a hint of anxiety involuntarily appeared in his eyes.
"Oh, my foolish brother, do you think Big Brother doesn't know your little schemes?" Dai Weisi looked at Dai Mubai with disdain and said, "You want to escape the Star Luo Empire. You wouldn't think your plan is perfect, would you?"
Dai Mubai's pupils suddenly contracted, and unwillingness surged in his heart, but remembering the disparity in their strength, he gave a bitter smile: "Are you here to stop me?"
"Hahaha..." Dai Weisi laughed loudly upon hearing this and said, "Why would I stop you?"
"I have a better way to help you find liberation, my good brother!"
"Roar!"
As his words fell, with a fierce tiger's roar echoing through the sky, gusts of wind and energy waves swept up in circles. Dai Weisi had already completed his Spirit possession, with two yellow and two purple spirit rings circling around him. His cold eyes, filled with killing intent, stared at Dai Mubai, as if looking at prey.
"You want to kill me!!!"
Only at this moment did Dai Mubai finally react. He looked at Dai Weisi in horror, shouting in a daze, "Aren't you afraid of Father Emperor's wrath?"
"Star Luo City is in great chaos tonight. Who would notice this matter? Besides, you will die in the aftermath of tonight's battle, and it has nothing to do with me." Dai Weisi looked at Dai Mubai smugly, moving his feet. His right fist suddenly rose, and with a forward rush, it struck directly at Dai Mubai's heart.
"I won't let you succeed, White Tiger Possession." Dai Mubai finally felt the threat of death. With a roar, he also completed his Spirit possession, but compared to Dai Weisi's four spirit rings, he only had a mere two. The difference was undeniably vast.
"White Tiger Barrier!"
Instantly lighting up his first spirit ring, the White Tiger Barrier, his strength, attack power, and defense all increased by fifty percent.
Dai Mubai, unwilling to show weakness, punched towards Dai Weisi.
"Bang!"
Two fists collided. With a crisp 'crack' sound, Dai Mubai's tiger claws made a clear noise, likely dislocated. Dai Weisi's punch, without losing speed, directly slammed into Dai Mubai's body.
Even with the White Tiger Barrier, Dai Mubai was still sent flying more than ten meters by a single punch, a large mouthful of fresh blood spurting from his mouth.
The gap between a Spirit Ancestor and a Spirit Grandmaster was still too great, with the addition of two thousand-year spirit rings, a difference of at least five thousand years. More importantly, Dai Weisi was six years older than Dai Mubai.
In Douluo Continent, a Spirit Master's physical development is linked to their spirit power level, becoming almost negligible after adulthood.
In the early stages, the boost from Spirit quality surpasses the boost from age. For example, a Level 20 Yu Xiaogang at eighteen years old couldn't defeat a Level 20 Dai Mubai at twelve years old.
This is the difference in Spirit quality.
However, this rule did not apply to Dai Weisi and Dai Mubai. Their Spirit qualities were similar, and their cultivation resources were similar. The six-year age difference was a huge chasm.
Even if Dai Mubai activated his first spirit ring and Dai Weisi did not use his spirit rings, the gap between them was insurmountable.
"Brothers killing each other, the rules of the Star Luo Imperial Family are truly disgusting," Yang Wudi said with a tone of disgust from a distance, as Xu Tianyang and he arrived nearby and happened to witness this scene.
"Everything has a reason for its existence. Since this rule has existed for so long, it naturally has its merits." Xu Tianyang looked at Dai Weisi and Dai Mubai with interest, then looked up at a dense forest further away, where two shadowy female figures were faintly visible.
How interesting, two pairs of mortal enemies, yet the situations they encountered were completely different.
Thoughts flashed through his mind. Xu Tianyang looked at Dai Mubai thoughtfully, his eyes slowly turning golden-red as his mimicry skill quietly activated.
With his formless mental force, Dai Weisi and Dai Mubai had no idea that they had already fallen victim to Xu Tianyang's skill.
"Hahaha, my foolish brother, you are still so weak." Dai Weisi, having succeeded with one blow, immediately laughed triumphantly.
Dai Mubai struggled to stand up. Beast Spirits, especially attack system Beast Spirits, generally have very good physical constitutions and are not easily severely injured.
Dai Weisi's punch had only broken one of his ribs. Although he spat out a large mouthful of blood, it wasn't considered a major injury.
"Dai Weisi!" Dai Mubai knew that today was a battle to the death, so he frantically squeezed his spirit power, constantly launching furious attacks at Dai Weisi.
"Bang, bang, bang!"
"Weak, weak, weak... you are truly too weak. What do you have to contend with me? And why do you contend with me? Just because your innate spirit power is one level higher than mine?"
In just three minutes, Dai Mubai was beaten to a bloody pulp and was losing consciousness. No matter what methods he used, Dai Weisi easily countered them. After all, they were taught by the same master, and Dai Weisi knew Dai Mubai's methods too well.
"Boom—"
Without suspense, Dai Weisi's heavy claw tore open Dai Mubai's shoulder blade. The intense pain had already made his consciousness blur, and he couldn't even scream.
"Mubai, don't blame me. Who told us to be born into the Dai family? Big Brother is also helpless," Dai Weisi, as the victor, said with pity to Dai Mubai, who lay on the ground, breathing weakly.
