I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

Feeling uncomfortable with all the passionate looks cast his way by his Clan members, Dante quickly left the scene speeding towards the major clan hall.

As he entered he saw that there was already a meeting going on in the hall between several Elders of the Clan his father included.

Looking back to see who so brazenly entered a major Clan meeting Patriarch Gavin looked back with a furious look on his face, but as he saw who it was his face softened into a warm smile.

"Speak of the devil! We were just having a meeting about you Dante. Seeing as you are already here, you can feel free to join us" said patriotic Gavin

"Meeting about me? What were you guys talking about ? "

"Of course we were talking about your second martial spirit! As a genius never before seen in the history of the Kinsman Clan, it's only right we give you the proper nurturing and resources you deserve. "

Hearing this Dante couldn't resist the urge to sneak in his request

"Speaking of resources, I'd like to have access to the clans magic material storage especially any elemental treasures we have "

As soon as Dante said this murmurs started sounding out as the elders started talking with some aggregating and some adamantly opposed to this request.

"Silence" "let's hear what he has to say said "

Now the attention was back on Dante he started speaking again

" I just feel like with my second martial spirit and some new resources I can guarantee to rapidly increase my strength to ridiculous levels and now with the inter-clan competition coming up, I feel like I should be prioritised with the distribution of resources inside of the clan" after he finished speaking Dante looked around to inspect the faces of the elders, but to his disappointment, the faces of most of the elders seemed to be hesitant.

Just as Dante was about to further elaborate on his point a figure jumped up

"I oppose the decision to focus our resources on Dante! "

Of course, the first person to oppose the idea of spending resources on Dante was Elder Harrison.

After saying opposing he went on to continue

" I just feel like it's too risky to focus most resources on one individual what, if he doesn't have the talent and ability, we've seen before in history where individuals can awaken 2 martial spirits become nothing special or sometimes even worse off. It's better to spend more on other members of the younger generation and not put all our eggs in one basket."

But before Elder Harrison could continue Dante interrupted.

"What if I could guarantee That it was more efficient to pile resources into me than other clan members !"

"Huh what do you mean ? " asked Elder Harrison

"You heard what I said, I can guarantee that I'm a better option to invest into than the rest of the clan."

"And how on earth would you do that ?" Questioned Elder Harrison

"Simple, since you said the only reason you're hesitant to invest in me is that you're not sure about my strength and potential. Well, why don't I prove that I have potential then, you can go and pick any member of the younger generation except for Rebecca and I could guarantee that they wouldn't be my match."

Instantly the group elders burst into an uproar

"What a bold claim"

"Arrogant, this boy is just too arrogant!"

"To say this with such a low cultivation level as well!"

It was clear what Dante had said was controversial but Dante wasn't an idiot, he hadn't said something so arrogant just to flex, he knew he had to do something eye-catching to convince all the elders to side with him and nothing was as eye-catching as a making such a bold statement.

Now that he had gathered the attention of the elders Dante decided to show some logic in his thinking.

"I'm not just doing this out of greed, With the extra resources from the clan I can guarantee to win the inter-clan competition for my division and with that allow us to earn more resources for the clan!"

Hearing his statement caused many elders to stop and think for a second.

Maybe investing in Dante didn't seem like a bad idea. With such s strength and confidence surely he couldn't be weak?

But somebody wouldn't let them just agree with Dante so readily and that person was of course Elder Harrison.

"Well since your so confident Dante then how bout a competition amongst the younger generation, we'll have a competition to see who amongst the younger generation deserves the most resources !"

Not wanting to seem intimidated and cause the support he just gained to slip away Dante quickly replied.

"Sure I'm ready to fight whenever, you just pick a time and a place and I'll be there".
