I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

"You awake now? I've been calling out to you and you've just been here, staring out into the distance" asked klent

"Sorry Klent, I was just focusing on a new understanding I felt after progressing in my movement technique," said Dante

"Klent is it alright if we end practice here. I've just felt a new understanding of my movement technique. I feel like if I can go back and think on it, then my movement technique will advance greatly!" Explained Dante.

"It's alright, the purpose of this practice was to see if you could advance your movement technique any further and it was obviously a success" replied Klent

"Thanks Klent, I couldn't have done it without you." Thanked Dante as he ran back to his room.

Klent watched Dante leave the training ground before sighing

"He really is a generational talent" sighed Klent as he left the training ground

But just as he entered his courtyard a deep voice rang out inside his head

"Generational is a bit of stretch, but the kid does indeed have talent"

Hearing this voice Klent looked around in surprise

"Who?!"

Klent looked around in shock, only to see his rusty old sword flashing a blinding white light as an old man wearing a clean white robe emerged from the sword

"Do you really want to surpass him, if so then I can help you" stated the old man

"Who…who are you?" Questioned Klent cautiously

"You can just call me Swordmaster Rho. But that's not important. My question is do you want to surpass him"

"Surpass him?" questioned Klent

"Of course I can make you surpass that boy . all though he's talented, he only has two martial Spirits and with my help, you'll easily be able to surpass him in a few years." Stated the swordmaster Rho plainly

"How can I surpass Dante if I only have one martial spirit and it's weaker than either one of Dante's Martial spirits" questioned Klent

"It's quite simple really, the way of the sword!"

"You already have a superb understanding of the sword seeing as you were able to comprehend sword intent by yourself. But with my help, I can take your sword technique to a whole new level giving you the potential to easily become one of the strongest on the continent."

"Now the question is, do you accept?" Asked swordsman Rho

Klent hesitated for a few seconds but son his desire for strength overtook his fear

"I agree, as long as you can make me stronger"

"That's great! then as a symbol of our meeting let me teach you a technique."

"The technique is called Divine sword body forging. When cultivated to the peak they can even grant you something known as a Divine physique!"

"Divine physique?" Questioned klent

"You don't need to know about these things yet, just learn the technique I'm about to teach you"

"Anyway, the technique goes like this…"

And like that Swordmaster Rho explained and taught a new technique to Klent for the rest of the night.

….

Since the spar between Klent and Dante several days had passed with Dante spent in seclusion cultivating and practising his movement technique.

But most importantly the day of the start of the inter-clan competition had finally come and there was a buzz and an aura of excitement around the kinsman clan.

Dante felt a rush of excitement as he woke up in the morning.

Over the past few days Dante had been cultivating like crazy, and with the abundance of resources given to him by Winton and Patriarch Gavin, it allowed him to Progress his cultivation and breakthrough into the 7th layer of the Martial Novice realm.

With his advanced cultivation level and his developed movement technique, Dante felt that he could easily win his division in the inter-clan competition.

The inter-clan competition was an event that only happened every three years and was a competition between the younger generation of the three clans in Brightsteel city.

As it is a competition between the younger generation the competition has an age limit of 20 years old to make sure that only the young talents can be involved in the competition.

In addition to this, the competition is split Into different levels depending on the cultivation meaning there will be three different ranks of tournaments going on.

One tournament will be for the cultivators in the body refining layer of the competition.

Another layer of the tournament will be for those that are in the Martial Novice realm.

And the final layer  was the highest realm of the tournament, the tournament for those in the Martial Journeyman realm.

There was no tournament for any realms above that as to reach the Martial Journeyman by 20 years old already demanded extreme levels of talent. There have been no known records of anyone breaking into the Martial adept realm before 20 years old. Talent that crazy is just unheard of. Even in the whole of the rippling wave continent, it would be difficult to find such a talent.
