I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

"Haha! I did nothing special. As a member of the Kinsman Clan, I naturally would do what's in their best interest. besides, now that we're all here it's the best time to say something,  I will be leaving the Kinsman Clan soon."

"leaving!?"

hearing this both Gavin and Jarred asked back in shock

"yes I'll be leaving.

With the recent boost I've  gotten from dealing with the slater Clan members, my strength has now somewhat recovered "

Despite hearing Winton's words, Jarred was still concerned and asked

"Do you really have to return back there?  You know it's still possible to put that life behind"

hearing Jarred's words Winton calmly replied

"Even if I wanted to put that life behind me, it doesn't mean that my enemies would stop searching for me.

besides, deep inside I know that there will always be a part of me that would always long for that strength and power! knowing that, how could I ever truly put that life behind me!"

As Winton spoke his shadow began to stir as a mad smile started to appear on his face

Gavin knew that at this point nothing he could say could change Winton's mind, but that didn't mean he wouldn't try to help

"Winton, you know that even though we may be weak, the Kinsman Clan will always be there to help you."

Hearing this Winton replied

"I know that but it's just too dangerous to take you guys along.

I've left my sect alone for almost 15 years!  Who knows what those bastards have done to it in my absence!

But don't worry, when I get everything back in order it will be time for the Kinsman Clan to step on a bigger stage.

It may take 1 year, 3 years or even 15 years! But there's one thing I can guarantee and that is that I will bring the kinsman Clan onto the bigger stage of the main continent!"

Hearing Winton's bold claims, Jarred couldn't resist the urge to laugh out in joy!

"Hahaha! I really have been blessed with a pair of good sons!"

Looking at both Winton and Gavin, Jarred couldn't help smile.

he was sure his greatest achievement in this life was raising these two great sons in front of him.

"come, today we shall drink until Dawn!"

Jarred didn't hesitate and downed his glass of wine in pure joy.

seeing this Both Gavin and Winton looked at each other before smiling and joining in.

And like that, the trio of father and his sons drank the rest of the night away talking and laughing about life and catching up with each other

....

Many days had passed since the meeting between Jarred and his sons and the Kinsman somewhat calmed down since destroying the Slater Clan.

currently, Dante was standing in a crowd of almost 15 kinsman Clan disciples.

amongst the crowd were some familiar faces like klent and even members of the top four like Savannah and Gawain, even slightly weaker individuals like Anne were inside of the mix.

all of these people were here for one thing,

The Hidden Dragon Academy!

The Hidden Dragon Academy was located inside of the kingdom's capital city which was almost a months journey from the current kinsman Clan.

This meant that the clan would only be able to take a small fraction of their disciples into the capital city.

you see, the entrance tests for the Hidden Dragon Academy only occurred every three years meaning that if you failed to go this year you would have to wait three more years for your next chance.

And as if to make matters worse, the Hidden Dragon Academy had very strict entry requirements and insisted that all new entries must be under the age of 20 years old.

This meant that if you were 17 or over and missed this year's exam you would be effectively eliminated as by the next time the entrance exams rolled around you would already be over the age requirement!

It was because of this competition for the places to go to the capital had been fierce over the past few days.

But all this  wasn't of much concern to Dante

As the strongest of the younger generation, Dante didn't even have to fight once to get his place.

The elders came to the unanimous decision that there was no need for Dante to fight for anything, so Dante had a very relaxing past few days as he waited for the people going with him to the capital to be determined.

While Dante was thinking all this,  a small group of Clan elders began to approach him and leading them was non-other than Grand patriarch Jarred.

suddenly, Jarred came to a stop and spoke out with a smile on his face

"Well, it's good to see the talents of my kinsman Clan have gathered here today. Just the fact that you were chosen to even make it here show that you are the best of the talents my kinsman Clan has to offer!

To get this point you have fought against tens of people to get this point, you really should be proud of your achievement.

the only problem is that at the Hidden Dragon Academy, these achievements don't mean anything!"

as Jarred spoke the smile on his face vanished whilst an intimidating aura radiated to the crowd of disciples.

"in the capital of the Vaenam kingdom, talents like you are as common as grass. People like you will need to put in 110% of their effort to even have a chance of entering the academy!"

After hearing Grand patriarch Jarred's brutal words,  the crowd of watching disciples grimaced at the difficulty of their described task.

well, all but Dante.

Dante stood quietly and listened to Jarred's speech with a smile on his face.

for this Dante's carefree attitude was quite simple,

Jarred's words just didn't apply to him!

While for other people their talents may be common in the capital city, for people like Dante, talents like him were rare.

a dual spirit awakener was a top tier talent no matter where he went.
