Chapter 271 - 273: What Is a Top-tier Faction

Chapter 271: Chapter 273: What Is a Top-tier Faction

"Do you know why, in the entire Endless Star Realm, only the Wizards, the All Gods, the Abyss, and Hell are the four top-tier powers?"

Munger looked at Farrete, who shook his head.

"It’s because the members of the four top-tier powers all supplement their own shortcomings after they become Morning Stars."

"And what is a shortcoming? Power! All shortcomings boil down to a lack of Power!"

"Take the path of this world, for example. By refining the Bloodline of Magical Beasts, they can create clones with the same strength as themselves."

"From this perspective, the Power stored in their bodies is far greater than that of a Wizard."

"But do you know why I was able to defeat him so easily?"

As he spoke, Munger pointed at Wulumu.

Farrete looked at Wulumu and shook his head.

"It’s because after the members of the four top-tier powers become Morning Stars, they all possess a world of their own."

"We Wizards use Elemental Crystals and other materials to create a miniature world for ourselves, while the All Gods establish a Divine Kingdom to house their Believers."

"The demons of the Abyss will seize the Abyss Planes born within the Bottomless Abyss to serve as their source of Power."

"Devils are similar to demons; they also increase their Power by seizing parts of Hell."

"But the Hell of the devils and the Abyss of the demons are still a little different."

"A devil’s Hell is just a seed. The devils must fuse this seed with their Soul and body, then travel the Endless Star Realm to plunder and deceive, tricking living beings into signing their contracts."

"And these beings who sign the contracts will die without ever knowing why."

"The devils then use the despair, fear, and other emotions from these beings’ final moments to strengthen their seed of Hell, turning those lives into fuel for Hell after they die."

"This is the true source of the four top-tier powers’ might!"

"Although the Magic Power stored in my body is far less than that of this wolf before us, the Magic Power contained within my world is more than a thousand times greater than his."

"I only need to release a small portion of my world’s Magic Power and shape it into Witchcraft to overwhelm him completely."

"And that is the difference between him and me."

When Munger finished speaking, Farrete’s eyes were wide with shock.

He had an ancestor who was a Moonlight Great Mage, so he knew that after becoming Morning Star Wizards, all Wizards create their own worlds.

But he had never imagined that only the members of the four top-tier powers could possess their own worlds after becoming Morning Stars.

"My lord?" Farrete began to ask, but Munger immediately raised a hand to stop him.

"You want to ask why other powers and races haven’t done the same, since creating a miniature world in the Endless Star Realm isn’t particularly difficult. Am I right?"

Farrete nodded at Munger’s words.

"Although other races and powers have always wanted to."

"But either their Souls are too weak, their bodies are unsuitable, or they simply lack the resources to allow the worlds they create to grow stronger."

"And now you’re probably wondering if the first-rate powers truly can’t cultivate even a few such individuals."

"Unfortunately, they truly can’t. This is because all four of the easiest known paths to creating a world are being guarded."

"And the ones guarding them are the most powerful figures from the four top-tier powers."

"As you know, there are explorers of Soul, time, space, and fate in the Endless Star Realm."

"And within each of the four top-tier powers, there are experts who delve into these four aspects."

"By binding their own races to these four paths and linking their destinies, they have ensured these paths can only be passed down within the four top-tier powers."

"Do you want to create your own world using one of these four paths? You can, but you must be an internal member of one of those four top-tier powers."

"Otherwise, you can just wait to be struck down by the will of the entire race."

"As for why other powers and races haven’t created a fifth, a sixth, or even more paths for creating worlds..."

"Don’t you think four paths to create worlds is already crowded enough for the Endless Star Realm?"

Looking at Farrete, Munger revealed a secret known only among the four top-tier powers and a few of the first-rate ones.

"Resources are finite, so the paths are also finite."

Upon hearing this, a pained expression crossed Farrete’s face, and he recited a famous saying from the Wizard World.

"That’s right. Although we still don’t know how large the Endless Star Realm truly is, or how many resources are generated within it at any given moment."

"In terms of resources, the resources in the Endless Star Realm are finite. They would only be infinite if there were no life to consume them. As long as life exists, resources are finite."

Munger nodded at Farrete, then recited another passage, one inscribed in a book.

That book was titled *On Resources*, and it was required reading for all new Wizards.

Farrete took a deep breath and asked Munger, "Lord Munger, are you still going to reinforce the first and second grand teams now?"

Munger shook his head. "Those two grand teams don’t need my help. Someone else will save them."

"I see. In that case, it won’t be long before the academy conquers this world!"

Farrete’s voice was filled with longing as he spoke.

As the captain of the Third Grand Team of the Second Expeditionary Corps, he was entitled to a portion of the spoils after the academy conquered this world.

Even though the Cosmic Sea World wasn’t conquered by his Third Grand Team alone, they would still be granted a share of the profits proportional to their contribution.

Why else would they have blown up their own Star Realm Battleship?

It was all to rack up a bit more contribution, to get a slightly larger slice of the pie when the profits were divided.

"Mm. Besides coming to rescue you, I have one other matter to attend to: I’m looking for someone."

Munger nodded at Farrete and then proceeded to place Farrete’s Third Grand Team under his direct command.

"Looking for someone? Who could possibly be so important that they need you to rescue them personally?"

Farrete scratched his head, confused by Munger’s words.

With a wave of his hand, Munger conjured an image in front of Farrete. The moment Farrete saw it, his eyes flew wide open.

"Andre? The person you’re here to save is Andre?!"
