"Hmm. This is interesting," Kent said, pacing back and forth after hearing what Elder Lance had to say.
He had just told him the plan the elders came up with to kill Kent and every new potential disciple coming to the sect from Sonox.
He told him about the corruption ring the elders had been running all this time. He even went into great detail, explaining how the recruitment process was supposed to unfold.
As the world housing the sect, they are allowed 200 slots every three years, some of which will be allocated to the Flame Tower.
However, the elders deemed it best to allocate only 100 to Sonox and sell the rest to other worlds that have only 100 slots, and some even 50.
This placed things in perspective for Kent to realize that corruption is everywhere. He had expected this foul behavior to be limited to Earth, where power was determined by money.
