Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 2264

Severin's talents defied logic, and the abundant resources supplied by the Grandiuno Sect would allow him to ascend to supreme paragon in less than a decade. Such a prospect was a hard pill to swallow for Jason. The Grandiuno Sect had always been dominant among Southsky's four major sects, especially as Oskar—an eighth-grade royal paragon—had always kept the Deifirm Sect in check. Should Severin become a supreme paragon, then the Deifirm Sect would soon witness an irreversible decline.

The sects' rankings in Southsky were directly correlated with their share of the region's resources. The higher a sect's standing, the greater its resource allocation—which in turn enabled them to nurture stronger disciples. The competitiveness maintained a certain harmony among the four major sects for centuries, but Severin's sudden emergence threatened to disrupt that delicate balance. Jason was deeply unsettled, as he had already grown accustomed to the established order.

After much contemplation, Jason gazed up at Clarkin and said in a solemn voice. "How do you propose we cooperate?"

Clarkin's grin widened upon hearing that. He knew that Jason would never embark on an unfavorable venture, so he had had come prepared. Clarkin articulated, "By overthrowing the Grandiuno Sect!"

Jason rose abruptly from his chair, with his expression turning grim. "You're overestimating the capabilities of the Deifirm Sect!" If overthrowing Grandiuno Sect were at all feasible, he would have done so long before.

The Grandiuno Sect was founded upon clashes between the four major sects in Southsky, all of which had competed fiercely for resources. The Grandiuno Sacred Land in Midland and the strong leaders who waged battles for millennia were what led the Grandiuno Sect to secure its current position of dominance. Toppling them would not be easy.
