Once everyone was teleported to the entrance to the temple Sam said as he started handing out the
"Everyone line up after you have been handed your Hollow Draconic Cores then I shall pour a jar of draconian blood on them to awaken your core"
Everyone did as Sam asked before everyone was holding their cores in their hands with Sam holding some jars of Draconian Blood and just as Sam was about to pour one of the jars onto Cindy's orb he heard James ask hesitantly
"Will this hurt?"
Sam shook his head and said to everyone to ease their minds
"No it will not hurt but you must imagine where you want your core to be in your body and each and everyone of you will gain an element that will help you just as I have all five elements"
Everyone seemed confused but Sam started to pour the jars of blood on each and everyone's cores before Sam had a barrage of system messages appeared while everyone began to look at the elements they had received

Once Sam had a moment to see every panel he turned to every one and said loudly
"Everyone calm down! Close your eyes and absorb your Draconian core"
everyone followed Sam's instructions before Sam saw everyone's cores disappear just like he had done before and said once everyone had absorbed their cores
"I officially name you all followers of the dragon clan! First you all must bathe in the healing pool to cleanse your bodies of impurities and then I will begin the tour of the temple now follow me"
However before Sam could guide them to the temple Mary stood forward and asked
"Sir what do you mean by impurities?"
Sam for some reason felt his pride as the Dragon Master being stabbed before he turned and said as he showed Mary and the others his draconian form
"I am the Dragon Master of the Dragon clan and as such you will address me as Master but for your question it would be better to show you"
Mary and the others felt their legs tremble a little from the aura Sam was unconsciously emitting before they all followed Sam to the baths and heard Sam say before they entered their respective baths
"Bathe in the pool for an hour and come back out not a second longer now go"
Once everyone had entered the baths Sam had begun to look at the recipes he had acquired from the quest rewards while the others bathed for the next hour and came out refreshed and energized before they all saw Sam in a mediative position before he said as he got on his feet
"Now that your body's have been cleansed of their impurities let's begin the tour starting with where you all will stay"
Sam then led them to the dorms and said as some of them took a room for themselves while the Clin and Olson brothers shared their rooms
"These are your dorms feel free to pick a room but remember that I will have new people come in so you may not have the room to yourself forever"
Mary took a look inside the room and asked Sam
"We aren't forced to sleep here right? And how do we go back home?"
Sam then replied as everyone got accustomed to their rooms
"After the tour I will transport anyone who wishes to return home and pick up anything they wish to keep with them as we will spend weeks at a time here training as you grow and get accustomed to your powers"
After every one saw their rooms that they had picked Sam lead them all to the dojo training area and said as everyone went in different directions around the room
"This is the training dojo, here we will train hand to hand combat so let's begin the first test"
Everyone looked at Sam in confusion before James asked Sam who was taking his shirt off
"Master Stone, what do you mean by test?"
Sam pointed to the wooden swords and said as he stretched his arms and legs
"You all will fight me for your first lesson but don't worry about hurting me as you'll soon learn I can take the pain"
Everyone had now began to worry before everyone walked over and picked up a wooden sword before Sam activated his draconian powers and said as he got in a fighting stance
"If you all collectively land 10 hits on me then it is your victory and if I hit you then you are out, Begin!"
Mary took the lead and shouted as she jumped up and slashed downward at Sam with her sword
"Don't leave an opening for him! Surround him!"
Sam easily dodged the attack before he noticed the Olson twins behind him going for a stabbing attack to his back before he too dodged this and leg swept them both before tapping them both of the head and saying
"Your both out"
Sam saw mary charging in once again and did a spin while using his wings to block Mary's vision before she realized Sam had his claws up against her neck before she dropped her sword and yelled as she wrapped both of her arms around Sam and held as tightly as possible
"GET HIM NOW HURRY!!"
Sam smiled before he broke free and lifted mary up using his wings and let her fall a couple feet from the ground before Sam said as he held himself in the air
"Noble sacrifice of you mary but you mistake me as a normal person and not like a dragon as you all should as the beasts you will face here are anything but normal"
Just then a wooden sword hit Sam on the arm causing everyone to look at who threw it to see Cindy being the one who threw her weapon at Sam before she ran over and threw the one Mary had drop at Sam but missed
Sam smiled a little before he dived down and and sucker punch Cindy causing her to feint as Sam looked at the rest of them and said as he retracted his wings and picked up a wooden sword up off the ground
"Let's wrap this up shall we?"
After another 8 minutes James was the last to fall with everyone else laying down on the floor before they heard Mike say
"That will conclude the lesson for today now get up as we have two more stops before I cook dinner"
Everyone immediately sat up straight and started following Sam around like he was their mommy duck before Sam led them to the forging area and said as he pulled a Drake fang and horn from the trunk chest next to the furnace
"This is the forging area where we will use the materials from the beast we kill here to create weapons and armour however you are not required to learn how to use the forge unless you want to"
Unexpectedly the Olson brothers kneeled on one knee and said in unison
"Master Stone! please show us how to forge!"
After some thought Sam lit the forge and said as he too out a
"Very well, I shall make a dragon spear using a
After nearly a half an hour of waiting the spear was completed and with its completion Sam had some surprising results with the spear and a few system messages
[Fire Drake Spear]
[Follower Harry Olson has watched you create a dragon weapon and has awakened the skill
[Follower Phill Olson has watched you create a dragon weapon and has awakened the skill
Sam was curious about the dragon smithing skill before the Olson brothers ran up saying in unison
"Master Stone! May we try forging a spear like you did with a skill we've learned from watching you work?"
Sam shook his head as he heard someone's stomach rumble and said as he put out the fire in the forge
"You will have your chance tomorrow but let's make our way to the cafeteria and get some food in our stomach"
Everyone perked up again and followed to the cafeteria where Sam said as he put on an apron
"Take a seat if you will and I'll handle the food"
Once every was seated and Sam was out of sight Cindy asked the others
"What are your thoughts about the Master? I think he is nice since he's letting us stay here and can give us free food"
Charles leaned in and said
"I don't think so since our little training session, seems like he wants to raise an army"
Mary let out a sigh and said
"I doubt that but if he can help me with my goals then I'll serve the clan however I can"
John looked at Mary and asked out of curiosity
"And what are your goals?"
Mary gave a cold look to John and said as her eyes changed colours from blue to a bright red
"Are you sure you want to know? Then we better look for a new member after your passing"
Everyone saw Mary's eyes before they leaned in and stared at her eyes before Mary asked them as she didn't realize her eyes had changed
"What are you all staring at?"
Cindy said as she continued to stare at Mary's eyes in awe
"Your eyes… they're different"
Just then sam came back with a cart full of cooked meat and said as he started handing some of them out and noticed Mary's eyes had changed and said
"Everybody will have different effects from the Draconian blood and will awaken different things but let's eat"
Everyone started eating while Sam watched them and said
"After you all eat I will transport anyone who wishes to return home to collect their belongings and tell their families that you have joined the clan"
Taylor had just swallowed a bite of her food and asked Sam
"How long are we going to stay here before we can go home to visit our families again?"
Sam looked at everyone and said before he got up and left for the main hall
"Training here will be hard and long but for 3 days a month we will return home to see our loved ones or to recruit new followers for the clan now eat up and meet me in the main hall"
Once everyone had finished they made their way back to the main hall where Sam was waiting for them and said once everyone was present
"Those who wish to return join hands while those that don't rest in your dorms or train with each other in the dojo area but do not go down the mountain without me present or you will die"
Everyone had now begun to wonder what they had joined for Sam to say this but everyone started grabbing each other's hands like before they teleported to the temple before Sam joined the circle of hands and said before they teleported back to earth
"
