Death… And Me

Chapter 1733 No More Bickering

　　Immediately, the clan head of the Kafun Clan, Franco, started to talk. This was another clan with power in the Jhiod Sect. "What is there to be discussed? Since these four can use weapon intents, they obviously have to contribute to the Jhiod Sect's future. From now on, I will have several of my own clan members spar against them so that we can increase the number of weapon intent users. My clan is famous for using weapons better than anyone else in the Jhiod Sect, so we're the perfect fit for it."

　　"Hmph! Are you taking the other clans for fools, Franco?" asked the clan head of the Illor Clan, Dilartri. "There's no way we will let only your members learn about it. Since you're already that good with weapons, then there's no need for you and your clan to learn weapon intents. Instead, it's better for those who aren't as good so that they can get stronger. How about that? You definitely have no complaint, right?"

　　"You!" Franco obviously wouldn't accept that. "Who's trying to take who for a fool? Do you think I'll let that happen?"

　　"Silence!" Suddenly, the Jhiod Sect Master, Gean, intervened. "Weapon intents are something that all the trustworthy sect members must have a chance to learn. However, you all know this already. Weapon intents aren't something you can teach. It's something you must awaken by yourself. Talent has little to do with it. All these guys can do is spar against other clan members so that they can get a feel for it. In fact, the same goes for us, including me. Everyone would have a lot to gain if they could learn weapon intents."

　　Everyone went silent after that. It was obvious that a lot of clans wanted to have a chance to awaken their weapon intents. However, there were too few people to fight against. Rean, Roan, Galato, and Brimi. It was far from enough.

　　Philip then raised his hand, saying, "I don't care what you decide. These are my clan members, so we'll obviously get priority on the spars. At the moment, I'm having these four fight against my other clan members three times a day while a few others watch. After all, whether you're watching or fighting, it's a valuable experience. If you make them fight more than three times a day, you'll overexert them. One of these fights will always be against other members of my clan. I will leave the two remaining times they can fight each day for all of you to decide on who'll fight them."

　　"Preposterous!" The Galeria Clan's head, Lumina, obviously didn't like it. "This is something involving the entire sect's future. How can you possibly monopolize a third of the times they can be used?"

　　"Hmph!" It was then that Roan snorted in response. "What do you mean by 'can be used?' First of all, have you ever asked us if we want to help the other clans? Philip is already being generous to let all of you spar against us while the rest can watch."

　　"Who gave you permission to talk back to me?" Lumina asked, furious. She wasn't used to low-level cultivators fighting back against her. "Shut your mouth and simply follow the orders given to you."

　　Philip narrowed his eyes, saying, "He can say whatever he wants. It's all thanks to him and his brother that we even have a chance to learn weapon intents. How about you show some gratitude? Oh, right! The Galeria Clan doesn't even know what that word means."

　　"Enough!" Gean immediately stopped the fight. Although he was displeased at how Philip and Roan talked back to his Galeria Clan, he was now in the position of Sect Master. He couldn't take sides, or the other factions would definitely cause trouble. "Philip is correct. Since it was his clan that found the weapon intent users, he has priority. I don't want anyone complaining about it since all of you would have done exactly the same thing. After all, no one here is an idiot."

　　Sure enough, they knew that Gean was right. In Philip's shoes, they would definitely try to guarantee as much advantage to their clan as possible. 

　　"It makes sense that Rean, Roan, Brimi, and Galato can only fight three times per day. One of these times will be reserved for the Yume Clan. The other two shall be decided between the other clans. However! All the fights must be taken in a hidden location where only the trustworthy members of the sect can watch. We can't allow weapon intents to escape the sect, after all. Yet, as long as the spectators receive our permission, they will be allowed to watch as many fights as they want. Does anyone want to add anything else?"

　　It was then that Lumina remembered something. "Right! What about the fact Yume Clan hid these weapon intent users until now? Shouldn't they have brought them out the moment they found these guys? That's the reason we keep the recruitment buildings outside the Jhiod Continent. It's for the good of the sect, not just one clan."

　　Philip snorted in response, replying, "Hmph! You talk like you wouldn't have done exactly the same thing. Do you think no one can tell that? We recruited these two in the Yume Clan Recruitment Building of the Jhiod Sect. Since that's the case, we obviously have taken them in first. Besides, every time any of the clans here find someone with real talent, you never send them to the Outer Sect. All of you bring them straight under your wings. Isn't that exactly the same? Why haven't you let the other clans get a chance at recruiting those members first? In the end, each clan here is only doing what's best for them."

　　The meeting hall went silent for a moment before Gean decided to speak. "This will never be over if we continue like that. What matters now is how we're going to allocate the weapon intent users. Since we have decided how the battles will happen, let's head straight into deciding the orders for the two sparring slots available every day. I don't want to hear any more bickering."
