I Have Seven Dragon Souls In a cultivation world

Many clans and families live inside the whole of the capital of Vaenam Kingdom but the one you would have to be most careful about is of course going to be the Royal family that currently rules over the Kingdom.

The royal family has ties and connections all over the kingdom, even the legendary Hidden Dragon Academy inside the capital was actually founded by the Royal family as a way for them to recruit talents to help them run the kingdom!

Of course, much has changed since the original founding of the Hidden Dragon Academy but the original founding purpose still remains, and that is to find and recruit top talents to serve the royal family."

hearing this Dante was a little surprised, who would have thought that just one family would basically own one of the strongest organisations on the continent? But before this fact could even settle with Dante, Rebecca started speaking again

"The hidden dragon Academy is designed to create talents that could help run the kingdom and it's because of this that it has been split up into four different departments that could best serve the kingdom's interests

These are:

The Department of War and Combat.

This department is focused on training excellent generals and soldiers to fight for the Vaenam kingdom. With the founding of this department, the Veanam kingdom would never lack excellent soldiers on the battlefield

The next department is the Department of Medicine and Alchemy.

As the name implies, this department is focused on training new alchemists to create medicines and important pills that can help in cultivation.

Another department is the department of Weapons and Arrays

This department focuses on training future weapon refiners and formation artists, both professions that require an extensive knowledge about runes and inscriptions to be the most effective.

 And last but not least is the most influential department in the Hidden Dragon Academy, The department of Governance and Internal Affairs!

his department focuses on training the individuals that would go on to manage the people and the goings-on inside of the kingdom.

Senior officials, Military police, elected Ministers and even City lords. Almost all of these influential figures came from the Hidden Dragon Academy's Department of Governance and Internal Affairs.

Hell, even the sword saint, a legendary dual awakener and the strongest cultivator in the kingdom comes from the famous Department of Governance and Internal Affairs!

"The power of the Royal family really is overwhelming but don't let the big name behind them blind you from another truly important fact

The Capital city is a whole different level to the small region of brightsteel city! In the Capital, It's common for the elders of clans to have at least martial adept level strength.

it is because of this fact that you have to act with a sense of caution in the capital, you never know who you could offend! just pissing off the wrong person could get your clan exterminated!"

After speaking Rebecca moved in closer towards Dante and spoke again 

"You hear me Dante! You can't just go around acting as arrogant as you did back at the clan, if you do you could very well end up getting yourself killed!"

before Dante could even respond to Rebecca, Grand patriarch Jarred opened his eyes from meditation.

"Now calm down Rebecca, that may have been the case before when you first came to the capital but things have changed since then, I have arrived!"

But Despite all of Jarred's boasting, Rebecca just wasn't fully convinced by Jarred's claims and slowly spoke 

"Grandpa, I don't mean to embarrass you but you do know you've only just broken into the martial adept realm?

With a cultivation as weak as yours, you would even struggle to get a position as an Elder in most clans much less a place in somewhere as prestigious as the Hidden Dragon Academy, I just struggle to see how you could allow us to act as fearlessly as your saying"

 Hearing Rebecca's words Jarred's face went red with embarrassment as he spoke in his defence 

"Who said I'm going to rely on my own strength You should know that there is more to life than just your own physical strength, just having the right friends and connections can get you a long way "

 hearing Jarred's Rebecca couldn't help but retort

"Oh really? If your friends are so powerful grandpa, I'd be interested in knowing who exactly these 'right friends' you have that can give us such confidence ."

hearing Rebbeca words, Jarred smiled as he replied 

"Don't worry Rebbeca, it's a secret.

Just wait until we get into the capital, then when you find out you won't even believe your own eyes!"

Rebecca rolled her eyes as she sat down, giving up on this discussion.

As much as she wanted to believe in her grandfather and his bold claims, Rebecca already had three years of experience living in the capital by herself. she just struggled to see how her grandfather who is so weak could even have friends string enough to make a difference.

In the end she just put it done to Jarred's willful ignorance, after all, hed been in seclusion for longer than she had even been alive! Maybe times were just different back then?

...

After the discussion between Jarred and his grandchildren, the convoy continued its journey for almost another hour before the foliage and trees around them quickly began to thin down.

Soon, the giant structure of the city walls quickly became visible as the road they were travelling on became wider and wider.

Shortly after the convoy had gotten close enough to see the city gates at the centre of the giant wall. At the City gates was an extremely long queue of people and carriages waiting to enter the city.

Seeing this Dante could only sigh.

"It seems like even after that long journey, we're still going to have to wait a few hours just to enter the city!"

Hearing Dantes complaint a confident smirk appeared on Rebecca's face

"That may have been the case before but you seem to be forgetting who you're sitting next to. Me, a fully-fledged member of the Hidden Dragon Academy! I got this Dante, Just sit back and watch."

Soon under Rebecca's orders, the Kinsman Clan convoy started to move once again.

Under Rebecca's lead the convoy completely ignored the long line coming right in front of the gate leading towards the capital

"Halt!"

Suddenly a heavily armoured guard appeared in front of the carriage blocking its way forward 

"Where do you think you're going? This is Vaenam kingdom checkpoint, you can't just walk in as you like-"
