Besides building connections, another benefit of serving as the dean of a Holy Tower Academy was gaining knowledge and improving one's own abilities.
Level-3 and Demigod-level Magicians of the Wizard World would not work for those Holy Tower Masters above Level 4 for nothing.
If these Holy Tower Masters wanted that group of powerful Level-3 Magicians to wholeheartedly maintain the development of their Holy Towers, they first had to offer equivalent benefits.
The most common benefit was paying those Level-3 or Demigod-level Magicians with items of law.
The power of law was an important medium for Level-3 lifeforms of the Wizard World to advance toward Level 4.
Due to their special nature, items of law had always been exceedingly scarce resources within Wizard Civilization.
Even though the Wizard Alliance market was enormous, with items of law of varying grades displayed for sale all year round.
Given the wealth and reserves of ordinary Level-3 or Demigod-level Magicians, however, relying entirely on purchases to sustain their daily research was probably unrealistic.
Even the lowest-grade items of law, once accumulated in sufficient quantity, could easily drain a Demigod-level Magician dry.
Not to mention that aside from researching the fundamental powers of law, which of the Wizard World magicians' other experimental studies was not a money-burning pit?
Therefore, beyond those naturally occurring items of law, the most popular method of researching the power of law in Wizard Civilization was for a Holy Tower Master to materialize a rule and offer up a thread of their own power of law for others to study.
That was why the Azure Flame Holy Tower of Saine's grandmaster, Cuilisi, had attracted mostly Fire Elementalists, and why all three Demigod-level Magicians serving as deans of its Holy Tower Academy were Fire Elementalists as well.
