The person who appeared before Saine at this moment was the Formal Magician, Irene. →

Even three days ago, it was the other party who told Saine that a batch of good goods would arrive today.

Since the end of the Regional Holy Tower Academy War, Saine's status and image in the hearts of Mage Irene and Director Johnny have completely changed.

At that moment, Director Johnny pointed at Saine, who had flown out of the Trial Space, and stood there for a long time, unable to utter a single word.

The Mage Irene exchanged contact information with Saine through the Crystal Ball, and in many of her words and actions, she regarded Saine as an equal, not just an apprentice.

"It's only been a few days, but I sense that your aura has changed slightly?"

"Come, come, let me use the Crystal Ball to test your Mental Strength and Magic Power power," said the Mage Irene, pulling Saine along.

At this moment, Saine was using Crystal Ball in this separate, secret room to see what good items were available in the Exchange Hall that day.

Faced with the Mage Irene's pull, Saine speechlessly twisted to the side, dodging her clutches.

Saine was certainly more aware of his specific situation Mage Irene.

He had just tested his Mental Strength this morning.

The Mage Irene was right; Saine's Mental Strength had increased again.

This increase in Mental Strength did not come from Saine's diligent meditation, nor from other potions or rare items he absorbed or took.

Rather, it originated from the golden light that the Summer Guardian had shot into his body before leaving.

According to her mentor Luluman, this beam of light is called the Light of the Planes.

Its far-reaching impact and benefits are enough for Saine to fully appreciate over hundreds or even thousands of years.

However, for the time being, the real benefit of this Light of the Planes is that it will help Saine quickly break through to the first level of life in the near future.

This is a gift from the Guardians, a power originating from the Plane Origin.

This beam of Light of the Planes is enough to make any Third-Level Great Magician envious.

Therefore, Luluman instructed Saine not to casually reveal that she possessed a Light of the Planes.

Although once the Light of the Planes is integrated into Saine's body, it is very difficult to separate it.

But it's not good to flaunt it in public.

With the protection of the Holy Tower and the Guardian's Rules, it is generally estimated that no one in the Wizard World would maliciously target Saine.

But you can't judge a book by its cover, and there will always be some first- or Second-Level Magician who will inevitably feel envious and jealous of what Saine has gone through.

If someone were to trip him up or do something underhanded in the future, it would be quite troublesome.

It's best not to reveal too much about yourself before you have absolute strength.

Saine took his mentor's advice to heart.

Therefore, even with familiar, Formal Magician Mage Irene, Saine revealed not a single detail about the Light of the Planes. →

Although Saine did not give a direct answer as to the reason for the change in his Mental Strength, it did not prevent the Mage Irene from making her own guesses.

The Formal Magician approached Saine and asked, "Did the Tower Master give you something good again?"

"Waaaaah, having a level four tower master as a mentor is just too wonderful!" Mage Irene covered her mouth and said to Saine with an exaggerated expression.

A few dark lines appeared on Saine's forehead.

After a period of playful banter, the two finally got down to business.

In the Crystal Ball exchange list that Saine reviewed, he did find quite a few items that interested him or that he urgently needed.

Two kilograms of Water of El

Three Blackthorn Wood

Two hundred Fire Poria Pearl

The comb of Alien Iron Feather Eagle Chicken weighing half a ton

There are also rare magical metals such as Red Ant Gold and Blue Sandal Silver.

These are all precious materials that Saine used for his own cultivation or experiments.

As for the half-ton otherworldly creature's flesh crown, it was a supplement that Saine bought for Little Seven.

Given Little Seven's appetite, this should be enough to feed it for a while.

When exchanging goods, he would often use hundreds, kilograms, and tons as units, which was enough to show his extravagance.

Even at this moment, the Mage Irene's gaze towards Saine held an undisguised hint of envy.

At least, the Mage Irene's fortune wasn't as substantial as Saine's was now.

The Mage why Saine had the Mage Irene act as his sales assistant was because Irene would receive a cut when Saine exchanged these rare items with huge amounts of points.

This can be considered keeping the benefits within the family; at least, Saine was very satisfied with Irene's work Mage.

"Huh? What's this?" Saine asked, pointing to a resource called "World Boundary Stone" on the Crystal Ball screen.

In addition to listing items, the Crystal Ball also displays the contents of the list.

The product has a brief video introduction.

Saine had never heard of what World Boundary Stone was, but this unassuming little black stone actually required 8,000 points to exchange for.

It is one of the most premium materials on the Crystal Ball list that Saine has been looking at.

"Hmm, World Boundary Stone? I feel like I've heard of it somewhere before."

"Yes, this is an extremely rare space stone that can be used for interstellar communication and interdimensional communication."

"Some Formal Magician like to use the World Boundary Stone to communicate and conduct interdimensional transactions with alien Time-Space Being from distant star systems."

"However, as the rules of the Wizard Alliance spread to many star systems in the vicinity, many creatures from distant Alien Plane have also joined our Wizard Alliance or have communication and trade relations with our Wizard Civilization."

"Therefore, fewer and fewer people are using items like the World Boundary Stone."

"Besides, this ore might also be used for interdimensional portals, but it's rarely used now because there are better alternatives than the World Boundary Stone," the Mage Irene replied.

As a formal-level Mage was decades older than Saine, Irene's total knowledge and the scope of her knowledge Dodo that of Saine, a magic Mage.

Nodding with interest, Saine included the World Boundary Stone in this exchange list.

Due to Saine's extravagant spending, he has already used up a significant portion of his 220,000 points.

Saine was not a miser; to Saine, points and Magic Coin were just a string of cold numbers.

Only by spending them all and transforming them into part of one's own strength and knowledge can their true value be demonstrated.

Therefore, when it comes to spending money, Saine never hesitates.

After leaving the Exchange Hall, Saine headed towards the academy library.

He had learned from his mentor Luluman, that there was a library inside the Holy Tower specifically for Formal Magician to borrow and use.

However, Saine did not aim too high. With his current level, this library used by the apprentices alone was enough for him to absorb and acquire knowledge for a long time.

The resources he had previously exchanged in the Exchange Hall had already been stored in his Space Bracelet by Saine.

Saine's main purpose in visiting the library was to research information related to mysticism and Curse Art.
