Arcane Points
Arcane Light is located at the deepest part of the Holy Tower Library, in a large, specially designated secret chamber. →
The interior of the secret room was dark in color, except for the Arcane Light, which emitted a captivating, faint blue glow.
This blue light represents knowledge and Truth.
When Saine arrived at the secret chamber where the Arcane Light was stored, it was empty inside and out.
It's clear that the Formal-Ranked Magician of the Azure Source Holy Tower rarely use Arcane Light.
However, the secret room was very clean and tidy, which means that someone cleans it regularly.
Taking a few steps forward, standing before the Arcane Light, Saine reached his hand into the ball of light before him, sensing the information within.
After a long silence, Saine sighed.
"No wonder the assessment of Arcanist level is so difficult. Arcanist level is directly linked to Arcane Points. Only by reaching 100 Arcane Points can one reach the threshold of level one Arcanist."
"When using Arcane Points to exchange for the knowledge one needs, the consumption of points will cause the Arcanist's level to decrease."
"I believe no Mage is selfless, giving without taking. In fact, the vast majority of Mage use Arcane Light not to transmit Truth into it, but to obtain certain knowledge that they desperately need," Saine sighed.
At this moment, Saine's Arcane Points were 0. If he wanted to obtain the high-level Soul Enslavement Method he desperately needed from the Arcane Light, he first had to make a sacrifice. →
That's why it's said that Arcane Light and the Arcanist system are groundbreaking products for Mage in the Wizard World.
This call for the teaching of Truth and knowledge greatly promoted the dissemination and upgrading of knowledge in the Wizard World.
Furthermore, the use of Arcane Points as a measure of knowledge in this exchange can be considered as adhering to the Principle of Equivalent Exchange.
Even if someone else gains control of one of your most prized spells in the future, that person will certainly have paid a heavy price.
Many Mage who have devoted their time and knowledge to this end will probably feel better, because the huge price others have paid actually proves the value of the knowledge they have acquired.
After briefly browsing through the Arcane Light, Saine began transferring knowledge into it.
To be honest, although Saine hasn't been promoted to the next level for long, he still has a certain arrogance in his bones.
His young age, his outstanding individual performance during the Regional Holy Tower Academy War, and his acceptance as a disciple by the Azure Source Holy Tower Master all demonstrate Saine's ability and strength.
With his current skill level, I don't know if he's qualified for the next level of Arcanist title.
The first knowledge that Saine transmitted into the Arcane Light was the initial Sun's Eye Spell Model that he had mastered.
As Saine had predicted, the Sun's Eye Spell Model had probably already been uploaded to Arcane Light by other Mage. This apprentice-level Spell Model was probably rare among magic apprentices, but it wasn't particularly outstanding among the billions of Spell Model in the Wizard World.
Ultimately, Arcane Light only returned 1 Arcane Points to Saine.
This made Saine realize once again how rare Arcane Points were and how valuable the Arcanist rank was.
With a slight frown, Saine transmitted his improved version of the Sun's Eye Spell Model, along with the related knowledge of light and Fire Element.
Indeed, compared to the knowledge and Truth that their predecessors had already researched and figured out, Arcane Light valued more the new knowledge created by Mage, new methods that belonged to them and had not been developed and used by others.
Innovation is the source of the Mage ' constant exploration of Truth and their pursuit of greater achievements in the Wizard World.
The advanced Spell Model and related knowledge of Sun's Eye, which Saine spent several years refining during his apprenticeship, were ultimately rewarded with 15 Saine Arcane Points by Arcane Light.
This score is already quite high. Many Level-1 Magician spend years researching and still don't necessarily get more than 10 points; they might only get a few.
Arcane Light has its own set of methods for judging and evaluating the quality of the knowledge passed down by Mage.
Many Mage in the Wizard World are quite averse to Arcane Light and the Arcanist profession, largely because the hard work and magical Truth they have painstakingly researched have received extremely low values in the Arcane Light evaluation process, falling far short of expectations.
This situation is undoubtedly a denial of a Mage's hard work and a lack of recognition of the value he has created.
Many Mage were so enraged that they stopped using Arcane Light altogether.
However, this situation is ultimately a minority. The vast majority of Mage in the Wizard World still agree with the method of evaluating Arcane Light, because it has indeed achieved as much fairness as possible.
Saine's improved version of the Sun's Eye spell is arguably his signature spell. Some Level-1 Magician ' trump cards are not necessarily stronger than Saine's, so a reward of 15 Arcane Points points is reasonable.
When he transferred his signature spell Sun's Eye, to Arcane Light, Saine didn't feel the same pangs of regret that most other Mage would have.
It's possible that Saine believed the improved version of the Sun's Eye spell was merely the result of his apprenticeship research. As Saine advanced to Level-1 Magician, he would inevitably research and create even stronger spells, which is why he didn't care much about the magical knowledge he had used in the past.
This reflects his confidence in his own abilities. Of course, more importantly, Saine needs these Arcane Points.
He's not a miser; when it comes to the necessary costs and the expenses he can afford, Saine is never hesitant.
A dozen or Arcane Points are still not enough for Saine to find a Soul Enslavement spell he likes.
Since we're going to look for one, we should definitely look for a better one.
Generally speaking, the more expensive ones are better.
After a moment of contemplation, Saine also uploaded the Spell Model the Azure Fire Eye, which he had improved and innovated in recent years, to Arcane Light.
The Azure Fire Eye Spell Model utilizes a far greater range of knowledge and is far more complex than the improved version of the Sun's Eye Saine developed during his apprenticeship.
The main problem is that the Azure Fire Magic is too complex; it's a knowledge system created by a Level-6 Magician in the Wizard World.
As a learner, Saine may not have felt anything obvious during the initial learning process, but the mental effort, time and cost that Cuilisi spent in creating and researching the basic principles of Azure Fire Magic must have far exceeded the imagination of Level-1 Magician like Saine.
Sure enough, after Saine submitted a more complex Azure Fire Eye Spell Model, Arcane Light quickly rewarded Saine with 32 Arcane Points.
At this point, Saine's Arcane Points had reached 47, which was enough for him to choose a decent Soul Enslavement Method.
So Saine once again perused the Arcane Light, hoping to find a Soul Magic he liked.
