"Bet? And what would you have to offer me? I already have plenty of stuff, and I doubt anyone at your level has anything capable of impressing me." Minos said, acting as if he was the higher level one there.
Upon hearing that, those three people opened their mouths in surprise, shocked at how high Minos thought of himself.
"Minos Stuart, you are talking nonsense! Do you even know who we are?" The level 69 woman was the first to say something, showing irritation by stepping forward.
Her two companions gradually formed strange expressions and watched Minos answer their companion.
"You are right. I don't know who you are." He said to her while Talia felt like laughing.
"Bastard!" The other level 70 individual clenched his fists as he muttered this, knowing that Minos was teasing them.
"Tsk!" Young Lance then was less courteous this time and said. "Minos, don't mistake my good manners for subservience. I have competed with your mother for decades. So, I think, as your elder, I deserve more respect, no?"
"No, you don't," Minos said, looking into the eyes of this arrogant person who thought he could get in the way of such a group and tell them what they would have to do. "I don't care who you are or the relationship you may have had with that person. That has nothing to do with me."
"And if you want to fight, you're going to have to find a way to get something awe-inspiring. Otherwise, forget it."

This time even Lance felt himself getting irritated, wanting to attack Minos right there. But, unfortunately, the sect did not allow unauthorized battles outside the fighting sites, and he would not risk casually attacking the sect master's grandson either.
So he could only provoke this person. "Then, let me tell this to you. Without the support of sect families, you will not achieve the position of sect master. And if you hide from battles against disciples, you won't get support even from your family elders!"
"Oh? Is that what this is all about?" Minos laughed. "Don't worry. I'm not interested in this sect... But even if I were, something like that wouldn't stop me. I'll take what I want, regardless of whether others like it."
"This elder support thing is only for the weak anyway..." He looked down at that person in front of him, indicating to the people there that Lance was a weakling in his eyes.
"What are you saying?" Lance turned red with anger and took a step forward. "Are you calling me weak? Even Maisie doesn't dare to say something so absurd!"
"If you can't take that position for yourself with your power, then you are weak." Talia opened her mouth upon hearing this, watching Minos' teasing those people with great interest and admiration.
It took courage to call a Spiritual Saint weak in front of such a person!
Lance's two companions began feeling awkward about this situation and put their hands on this man's shoulders, afraid he would attack Minos.
At the same time, they could not help but realize that they had lost in this first encounter with Minos.
'The bastard is bold!' The woman thought.
The man then muttered to Lance. "Let's not lose our calm. This guy is full of shit. Can't you see that his only chance here is his grandfather?"
'That's right. Without Oswald, this little bastard probably would have died in the northern region by now!' Lance thought to himself as he saw Minos' annoying smile and the way the King Stuart women were looking at him.
They looked at him as if he was some trash standing in their way!
"Humph!"<sub> </sub>

"You do talk big! Your small victories in the northern region have given you a lot of courage! But let's see what you'll accomplish here. Hiding like a coward, you won't get any support..."
Minos then stopped him from continuing to speak. "If the day I want to lead this sect comes, I'll take this place. There is no need for the elders to be on my side. They will have to obey me."
"But until then, you can play your little games with others like you. I'm not interested." Minos started walking with his arms around Abby and Gloria's waists. "I have more important things to deal with..."
Ruth and Talia followed Minos' movements while this level 65 woman looked at those people with a satisfied expression.
But the three individuals were not happy at the moment. The level 69 woman and the man trying to calm Lance were staring open-mouthed at Minos while their leader tightly clenched his fists, trembling with rage.
His neck veins were exposed, and he looked at the ground with a lost look, still not understanding the random 'slap' that Minos had just given him.
Lance had come to Minos thinking he would scare this young bumpkin and show the sect elders that such a person was unfit to lead this organization. But who knew? He had been provoked and annoyed while the Black Plain brat left majestically after pointing out his 'weaknesses.'
'Damn him! No wonder his family abandoned him at the end of the world! He's an uncivilized barbarian, a brute who doesn't understand his insignificance!' Lance began to think all sorts of negative things about Minos as he stomped hard on the ground nervously.
Unfortunately for him, someone other than the people in Minos' group and his had seen this situation.
'This young man spoke some absurdities, but he managed to get into Lance's mind without even using his techniques...' An elder monitoring Minos thought about this, considering it a great shame for a level 70 cultivator to be irritated by someone of level 62 so easily.
'On the other hand, the sect master's grandson truly has the personality of a conqueror. With him in charge, his organization would never bow to other powers...' He realized this characteristic of Minos.
...
"Minos, I thought it was pretty cool what you did back there, hehe." Talia commented after they had distanced themselves from Lance's group.
"That was nothing." He winked at her. "Even that old man can't push me, so a mere level 70 Spiritual Saint isn't going to get anything out of me."
"Hehe, you are really confident." Talia smiled, having fun with her brother-in-law.
"But don't you think that will hinder an eventual change in your thoughts about leading this place?" Gloria asked.
"The opposite. It will help us look like we are not interested and that Maisie remains the heiress." Minos answered his wife. "In any case, no one will take my words seriously. They don't know anything about me, so for now, it won't have any problem other than them finding me arrogant."
"Anyway, at least we will keep others from approaching us and trying to challenge me just to show they are stronger."
Minos understood Lance's goal very well. And since he was not yet strong enough to have a friendly match with such a person, he had used the previous words to create a better justification for not having to fight.
Thus, instead of showing his 'weaknesses,' he had broken the mental stability of someone stronger and came out on top in the previous situation.
For a proud person like him, this had been worth it, even considering that he did not even care about this sect!
