Mu Ye's gaze lingered on the two young figures beside Leng Yaozhu for a moment, and he spoke while the smile on his lips had not yet faded.
"Your Heavenly Phoenix, you haven't introduced these two yet."
Leng Yaozhu put down her teacup and turned her head slightly to look at Bai Yuan and Gu Yuena.
"Oh, I almost forgot."
"These two are my disciples, Bai Yuan and Gu Yue, and they are also your teammates this time."
Mu Ye's gaze fell on Bai Yuan.
He had lived most of his life and met countless people.
This child has good blood circulation.
It's not about the strength of Soul Power, but rather the strength of one's body and the vitality of one's flesh.
Its power was so profound that even he, the Body Sect Refinement Sect who had cultivated his body for decades, was slightly startled.
This doesn't seem like something a ten-year-old boy would do.
That sense of power emanating from his very bones was far beyond what even his disciples, who had trained diligently for many years, could match.
His lips twitched slightly, and a glint of shrewdness flashed in his eyes.
Is this the "good karma" that Elder Han mentioned?
Mu Ye shifted his gaze to Gu Yuena, his brows furrowing almost imperceptibly.
This elemental power.
The elemental power, so dense it was almost tangible, flowed through her body.
When did mainland China produce such a young prodigy?
He has been traveling around the world for years and is not entirely ignorant of the rising stars on the mainland.
But where did Leng Yaozhu find these two children?
Mu Ye glanced discreetly behind him.
A Ruheng was grinning at Bai Yuan, his smile as honest and simple as that of a country boy who had just come to the city.
Mu Ye sighed inwardly.
This child is quite talented and has already achieved some success in his cultivation, making him a rare talent among his peers.
But can this temperament, this simple-minded appearance, truly revitalize the Body Sect?
"My two young friends."
Mu Ye withdrew his gaze, nodded slightly to Bai Yuan and Gu Yuena, and his voice became more composed.
Bai Yuan stood up, bowed slightly, his posture respectful yet not servile.
"Senior Mu Ye, I've long admired you."
Gu Yuena stood up and nodded slightly.
"Master Mu Ye."
When Bai Yuan looked at him, A Ruheng grinned, scratched the back of his head, and spoke with a touch of youthful naiveté.
"Hello, my name is A Ruheng, and I am your disciple. Please take care of me in the future!"
Looking at his honest and simple appearance, Bai Yuan smiled slightly and shook hands with A Ruheng.
Their hands briefly clasped in the air.
A Ruheng's hands are rough and thick, with large knuckles and calluses on his palms as thick as a layer of armor.
Bai Yuan felt A Ruheng's palm exerting a slight force, not a test, but excitement.
This future Body Sect has not encountered a rival of his own age for a long time.
The moment their hands clasped, A Ruheng's palms tightened slightly.
It wasn't an attack; it was a probe.
Like two wild animals meeting for the first time, they sniffed each other.
Bai Yuan's expression remained unchanged, and he didn't exert any force in his hand, simply letting him hold it.
A Ruheng's smile deepened, and he increased the pressure on his hands.
He thought to himself, "If I use a little strength, this junior brother should be alright."
But he really excited himself!
Power surged from his palms; it was the accumulation of decades of body refinement, the brute force forged by the secret techniques of the Body Sect.
An ordinary Soul Master would probably have their bones shattered under his grip.
Of course, he also noticed the surge of Bloodline Power in this person's body before he did so.
Bai Yuan remained expressionless, his black eyes calmly watching him, even with a hint of a smile.
A Ruheng's smile froze on his face.
He added more, even adding up to seventy percent of his power, but Bai Yuan remained completely unmoved.
Even after adding 80% of the fill, it still doesn't move.
When he increased it to 90%, he finally felt Bai Yuan's hand tighten slightly.
It tightened only slightly, like a sleeping giant turning over without even opening its eyes.
A Ruheng's pupils dilated slightly.
What kind of power does this kid possess?
Bai Yuan felt the power emanating from the other person's palm gradually increasing.
Seeing A Ruheng's expression shift from relaxed to serious, and then from serious to shocked, I sighed silently in my heart.
This future Body Sect wasn't provoking him; he genuinely wanted to challenge him.
When I see someone my age, my first reaction isn't to make friends, but to learn from them.
He truly lives up to his reputation as a madman of the body-refining lineage.
Bai Yuan's hand also gradually increased its pressure.
The two men were silently locked in a struggle of strength between their tightly clenched hands.
A Ruheng gritted his teeth, the veins on his forehead bulging, and the muscles in his arms bulging like iron.
He had already exerted his full strength, but Bai Yuan only slightly increased his strength, no more and no less, just enough to match him.
A Ruheng's heart was in turmoil.
He was known for his strength from a young age and never met his match among his peers.
But now this boy, who looks much thinner than him, is actually on par with him.
What kind of monster is this?
Mu Ye's pupils also contracted slightly.
He knew A Ruheng's strength all too well; he was strong enough to lift a cauldron, and almost no one in the same realm could rival him.
But this boy named Bai Yuan not only caught A Ruheng's full strength, but also handled it with ease.
The child's physical strength was even more terrifying than he had anticipated.
Leng Yaozhu's disciple is indeed no ordinary person.
Gu Yuena sat quietly to the side, her purple eyes watching the two hands that were still secretly vying for power, her face expressionless.
What's so interesting about two human cubs wrestling?
One is a brute who cultivates his body, the other is a cheat code; neither can win.
Let them go!
I just didn't make a move; otherwise, who could possibly surpass the strength of a dragon?
Bai Yuan sensed that A Ruheng's strength had reached its limit.
He didn't apply any more pressure, released his grip, and smiled at A Ruheng.
"Senior Brother A Ruheng, you're strong!"
A Ruheng stared blankly at his hand, which was slightly red from being gripped so tightly, for a moment, then grinned.
"You're not bad either!"
A Ruheng rubbed his still numb hand.
His gaze swept over Bai Yuan several times, his eyes no longer showing the casualness of their first meeting, but rather a more serious expression.
Looking at Mu Ye disciple's state, Mu Ye sighed inwardly. This foolish disciple has finally met his match.
He withdrew his gaze, his eyes darkening as he looked at Bai Yuan.
Leng Yaozhu picked up her teacup, a slight smile curving her lips.
She knew this would happen.
A Ruheng is a genius in the body-refining lineage. It would be strange if he didn't suffer a defeat when he encountered a Little Monster like Bai Yuan.
A Ruheng rubbed his still numb hand and looked at Bai Yuan.
The casualness of their first meeting was gone, replaced by a more serious look in his eyes.
He scratched the back of his head, grinned, and his voice carried a hint of youthful frankness.
"Junior Brother Bai Yuan, how about we have a spar?"
"Perfect timing, let's also decide who will take the lead in this competition."
Bai Yuan raised an eyebrow slightly and looked at Mu Ye.
Mu Ye didn't answer immediately, but turned to look at Leng Yaozhu.
Leng Yaozhu picked up her teacup and took a sip.
"The younger generation should make the decisions."
Mu Ye nodded, his gaze falling on Bai Yuan.
"What about Bai Yuan?"
Bai Yuan stood up from the chair.
I have no objection.
"Perfect timing, I'd also like to spar with my Senior Brother."
"Good!"
A Ruheng's eyes lit up.
He turned to look at Mu Ye, Mu Ye waved to the staff at the door.
"Find a training ground."
The staff member responded and left.
Before long, the group walked through a long corridor and arrived at a spacious cultivation room deep inside the building.
This area is not open to the public; it is a private space where VIPs usually exercise to improve their physical fitness.
The surrounding walls are made of thick alloy, and the floor is covered with a special cushioning material.
The soul-guiding array on the wall flickered faintly, powerful enough to withstand a full-force collision from anyone below the Soul Saint level.
A Ruheng stood in the center of the field, stretched his shoulders, and his bones cracked and popped.
He took a deep breath, and his already muscular physique seemed to expand even further, his loose training clothes stretched taut by his muscles.
"Junior brother, be careful."
A Ruheng's voice rolled out from his chest, becoming a few degrees lower.
"I pushed harder."
Bai Yuan stood opposite him, looking at A Ruheng, a smile spreading from the corners of his mouth to the depths of his eyes.
"Bring it on."
He paused, his tone carrying a hint of lazy anticipation.
"Let's see if you'll let me have my fill."
