Now it's not that she would be abandoned, but it would be debatable whether she ever gets a chance to participate in special events like this competition again.
If it were an ordinary descendant then it might not be a big issue to lose one competition, however for Dantes sister Leia it is a major hurdle.
Due to her special Physique she rarely had contact with her brother, let alone others. So she lacks the ability to cultivate her own subordinates.
Before, Dante wouldn't have realised why this was a big issue. But now Dante realised that her strength will be stuck at the bottom of the Antique Realm for her entire life.
For an ordinary family, even the lowest Antique realm would be something to celebrate. However the Armstrong family has an unknown number already, for a mere Antique it isn't worth devoting everything towards it.
Dante decided to visit his sister in the training room, it is common knowledge that it is taboo to disturb someone while practicing.
Dante for sure knows that if anyone walked in on him they wouldn't live to see another day.
But this wasn't much of Dantes business. The only reason he showed up to the competition was because he was interested in the Double Physique.
After all, Dante wasn't selected by the family to participate, so naturally he didn't want to intrude.
So after settling in, all that was left to do is wait. Now all of Dantes Puppet making has been delegated to his Manufacturers so he didn't have anything to do.
All that was left is two days until the competition.
Over this time various people have flooded into the county in order to watch the competition.
It's not everyday that you get to see a competition between two Antique Families Descendants.
Finally the day of the competition came.
Dante decided not to go with the convoy of his family. Over this period of time he had been trying to draw the public's attention away from him as an Heir. He even considered being replaced as an Heir but when he considered the loss in resources he decided against it.
Especially after he read the life notes of the Antique. He learnt that most antique Planes would have a population of hundreds of billions at the lowest!
Even if the lifespan of the creatures inside are lower, there is easily a chance for millions of Fairy State and even hundreds of Ancients to be inside their World!
And right now the creature with the largest population in Dantes Plane is a ghost. So he needed access to more resources, especially unique items like the Ghost Temple!
He doesn't believe that his family is without items like that.
Dante walked through the bustling streets enjoying the quaint view of small stalls that were set up.
Finally he reached the competition location. A large stone platform erected in the centre of the giant city. Surrounding it were hundreds of Fairy State and Spirit State cultivators sent by both families.
One were wearing an insignia bearing a Golden Human, while the others had a Golden Ram built on top of them.
Naturally the Humans were the Armstrong Family while the Golden Rams were the HighMan Family.
Even if they had an equal number of Fairy State and Spirit State cultivators here, you could clearly see the distinction between the backgrounds of the two families.
The equipment that the Armstrong Family were wearing is much higher than that of the Highman Clan. Even the robes they wear could defend against attacks of those at the same level.
If a fight were to break out it is undoubtedly the Armstrong Family that would win.
Standing on the two sides of the platform was a man and a woman. Naturally the woman was Dantes sister and the man was the Highman Heir.
Dantes breath couldn't help but quicken as he looked at the Highman heir, unsurprisingly a bright golden aura radiated off of him.
While not as strong as Hamilton's Aura, it also means that Dante would be able to make him into a puppet.
But it will not be easy. Dante still had to face the fact that the boy in front of him is the HighMan Heir.
He would definitely have a powerful guardian around him, not to mention any treasures that could've been obtained as someone blessed with the Aura of Heaven.
Luckily Dante knew the Highman heir, James, hadn't long been treasured by his family. It was only recently that his Physique seemed to have awakened.
If it was before Dante might've just thought it was a coincidence, but now Dante knew it was the extra effect of Heavenly Luck.
It is unknown how many adventures James has had and how many cards are hidden up his sleeves.
Without even considering all of this, James is still in the Spirit State. So Dante needed adequate preparations for this.
Recently he had been investing all of his energy from the Puppet Technique into cultivating higher strength puppets.
And it has been working. He already has close to a hundred thousand Fairy State puppets and a thousand Spirit State Puppets.
But he lacked true high level combat power. He only had two ancients. The Purple Phoenix and the PurpleThorn Vine.
The PurpleThorn has been connected to the World Tree, and Dante doesn't want to easily move it until it reaches the Saint Realm.
So that left the Purple Phoenix. However the Phoenix is already synonymous with the Armstrong Family. Anyone who sees it fighting would naturally know who was attacking James.
So before Dante could even think of taking action against James he needed another Ancient.
But the amount of energy needed for an Ancient is the equivalent of close to two hundred thousand Fairy States!
