Capítulo 1358: Chapter 772: Preparation and Application (Part 2) Lister intentionally singled out these individuals, discovering that they were mostly those council members who concealed their forms and identities in voting meetings. Are they already recruited by one of the three top schools? Perhaps due to the difficulty of fighting against the three top schools alone, this choice was inevitable. Indeed, although Lister’s idea of forming an alliance among different schools might be feasible, it’s ultimately not a simple task. The Pan-Continent Mage Association has existed for so long that the entangled interests between different schools are too complicated. Take the three top schools for example, the resources accumulated over countless years are unmatched by other schools. The benefits they can offer are likely to divide those potential opponents. Lister rubbed his chin, feeling somewhat speechless. Honestly, if it weren’t for the three councilmen overseeing, Lister felt the Pan-Continent Mage Association might fracture in the next moment. After all, over countless years, whether it’s Legendary Members or ordinary mages, they’ve grown accustomed to distinguishing camps and identities based on school affiliation. This is what Lister has found out through his investigations over this period. It’s no wonder Third Speaker Tarinda, who usually doesn’t manage affairs, suddenly became interested and specifically sought him out for handling this situation. In consideration of the remaining Star Realm Magic, Lister prepares to maneuver thoughtfully. Having this behemoth, the Pan-Continent Mage Association, make a move would surely provide more assistance in the fight against Evil God believers. Lister stood up, walked to the window, and gazed down at Jonas City. [Source of All Magic], Magic Crystal Tower, In these days after the voting meeting concluded, Lister hadn’t been idle. Since the base point has been decided, naturally, the Space Transmission Array must be quickly set up between here and Kane Floating City. Having arranged it multiple times, Lister was already adept, even starting to coach Risa to undertake these tasks. However, compared to her talent in Four Elements Shaping Magic, Risa’s talent in space magic was relatively average. In the end, she stumbled, but succeeded nonetheless. With this experience, arranging the Space Transmission Array independently in the future would be much easier. After successfully setting up the Transmission Array, Lister directly maintained the continuous opening of the space channel, and endless materials were sent from Kane Floating City. Compared to when he first acquired Kane Floating City, Lister has now gathered considerable wealth through developing a small world with the Phillips Crystal. Although he still can’t completely repair Kane Floating City, he no longer needs to spend his days figuring out how to con various extraordinary materials support from the Church of All Gods and the Elf Kingdom. Supporting the establishment of a new school is well within Lister’s capabilities. In fact, Lister directly elevated all aspects of the new school to a very high starting point. Just as he declared in the Legendary Council, He didn’t act impulsively at that time; he contemplated for a long time before doing so. Third Speaker Tarinda’s final requirement was to make the entire Pan-Continent Mage Association actively move. In Tarinda’s view, what affects the Pan-Continent Mage Association the most are those three top schools and the other elite schools. Tarinda’s intention is that as the Kane Floating City Controller, Lister has a significant advantage if he wants to establish a new school. Under such circumstances, so long as Lister shows a desire for the top school status and takes some initiative, coupled with some assistance from her, those conservative council members would soon alert, then take proactive actions. After all, the reason why the three top schools and other elite schools could occupy so many resources and power in the association isn’t just because of their own strength but also due to past accumulation and management. To break this status quo, the best option is to create a new competitor. Tarinda doesn’t need Lister to truly elevate a new school to the position of a top school; she just needs to propel all schools into action. Taking the first step proactively, the subsequent actions become much easier. Follow current novᴇls on 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩·𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖·𝘯𝘦𝘵 Regarding Third Speaker Tarinda’s thoughts, Lister naturally understands them quite well. However, he doesn’t plan to stop with just this. After all, in every aspect, the Pan-Continent Mage Association is one of Lister’s best allies. Just as the Third Speaker said, the fundamental principle of the Pan-Continent Mage Association is adhering to order and exploring a higher level of magical mysteries. Therefore, Lister naturally wants to have a greater influence on the Pan-Continent Mage Association and secure more support in the future chaos period as much as possible. And this time is a good opportunity for Lister to increase his influence over the Pan-Continent Mage Association. Of course, this doesn’t conflict with his establishing the [Source of All Magic]. After all, the Evil God believers and Abyss Lords are also enemies of the Pan-Continent Mage Association. Just as Lister was preparing the construction of the [Source of All Magic] base point and getting ready to recruit association mages, Minos’s voice reappeared in Lister’s mind. “Mr. Lister, your application has been approved.” Lister was a bit surprised and asked, “Which application did I submit get approved?” It’s no wonder Lister was confused, he indeed submitted quite a number of applications to the association during this period. Even though many didn’t require passing through the Legendary Council review, they still needed a certain amount of waiting time. “It’s your [Application for Access to Legendary Rank Magic Knowledge], and [Application for Repeating Teaching Magic Knowledge Transaction Permission].” Minos’s voice appeared in Lister’s mind, this time without any emotion. Lister nodded; these applications were submitted after he officially became a Legendary Member. The [Application for Access to Legendary Rank Magic Knowledge] was Lister’s attempt to know what high-level magic knowledge the Pan-Continent Mage Association currently possesses that could be beneficial to him. After all, the Pan-Continent Mage Association still has plenty of good things. For example, the extraordinary knowledge the association obtained from those two Floating Cities inherited from the Neserel Magic Empire greatly interests Lister. Lister controls a Floating City that operates normally, and naturally knows the magic knowledge related to Floating City stored inside one. This knowledge is also extremely useful to Lister. After all, each Floating City is unique and has distinctive magical facilities. Like Kane Floating City specializes in controlling the Four Basic Elements and manufacturing Elemental Magic Statues. If Lister could acquire the knowledge of constructing those two Floating Cities within the association, he could not only repair Kane Floating City better but potentially enhance it as well. This is crucial for Lister. And the [Application for Repeating Teaching Magic Knowledge Transaction Permission] is for securing the right for [Source of All Magic] members to learn relevant magic knowledge. Compared to solo learning, allowing school members to repeatedly learn magic knowledge comes at a higher price. Moreover, what Lister could trade from the association excludes those exclusive magic knowledge from individual schools. However, for most mages, this is absolutely sufficient. This doesn’t cost too dearly for Lister either. No matter if from Mr. Stephens at Judgement Flame, or from Kane Floating City or Elf Land, Lister already commands a substantial amount of various spell knowledge. The reason why he sought this permission was to fill in any gaps and enrich [Source of All Magic]’s repository of spell knowledge as fully as possible. Thus, the cost would not be high. This is also in preparation for recruiting other mages and fulfilling his promise for free public access to spell knowledge. Since Lister is prepared to establish [Source of All Magic] properly, he won’t do it half-heartedly. “Alright, can it be given to me now?” “Sorry, Council Member Lister.” “Due to confidentiality requirements, you need to go to Minos Floating City to review the relevant information.”
