Picture this, you got isekai-ed into a poor family of cultivators as the head of the family with everything intact, memories and personality-wise. Your family just managed to become the top family because the previous top family got destroyed due to random disaster unrelated to you.
Would you now be benevolent and try share the very limited resources with other families and not be a dictator, knowing that there's a high risk that once some other family gets to have a higher level cultivator than you, the resource allocation will no longer be in your hands.
Or
Become the new dictator and enforce draconian rulings onto other families such as 30% taxes, jus primae noctis and even abducting their women and children for own personal gains (breeding and disposible weapons). You will also send routine culling teams to ensure that the other families' high level cultivators and geniuses are as few as possible because you know that you and your family will have an insanely low chance of surpassing the current level of cultivation and inversely, a ridiculous high chance of getting wiped out.
So what would be your pick?
