Your Dachen’s Emperor holds at least one-tenth or even three-tenths of the Authority of Da Chen Star Tower.
Moreover, the Marshal of Dachen’s Galaxy Battlefield should also have authority.
The Three Kings and Seven Marquis of Dachen in the Galaxy Battlefield should have authority as well.
Including this sub-tower of Star-picking Tower in my hands, the authority is not solely mine.
As the former Tower Master of this sub-tower, I only had forty percent of the authority, with at least fifty percent resting with the high-level executives of Lingji Star Hall.
In theory, in the current world, no one can have exclusive control over any Star-picking Tower’s authority, not even the Star Lords of Star Hall, much less a sub-tower.
Authority is not only about power but also represents tremendous interests, do you understand?"
At this point, Qi Shanye was somewhat anxious, having explained so much, fearing that Xu Jin hadn’t understood.
But Xu Jin had understood.
This was just like shareholding in Xu Jin’s previous life.
It came with power and income.
But listening to Qi Shanye, the authority of a Star-picking Tower in this world seemed to be stronger than shareholding in the past; minor shareholders back then barely had any influence.
However, the authority of a Star-picking Tower seemed to imply that even a small share would grant not insignificant power.
Seeing that Xu Jin understood, Qi Shanye let out a sigh of relief, fearing his complicated explanation wouldn’t be clear.
"But now, you are about to take sole control of a Star-picking Tower sub-tower, do you understand?" Qi Shanye said excitedly.
Xu Jin shook his head, not understanding.
"It’s something that should be impossible! But due to a combination of various circumstances, it happened!" As he spoke about this, Qi Shanye became excited, and after talking for fifteen minutes, Xu Jin finally understood.
Firstly, a Star-picking Tower sub-tower falling into an individual’s hands was originally impossible, but it happened because Lingji Star Hall faced the sealing of the halls and towers.
The main tower of Lingji’s Star-picking Tower, because of sealing, was cut off from connection and control to the sub-towers, leaving this one effectively under Qi Shanye’s control.
However, Qi Shanye only had actual control; the authority he enjoyed remained the same.
This distribution of authority was imprinted into the sub-tower itself, as part of the bottom-level operational rules. Unless the main tower ordered changes or the Authority Holder made changes, the sub-tower could not be switched.
Secondly, fifty percent of the authority of the sub-tower originally belonged to the high-level executives of Lingji Star Hall and was not without an owner, but as Lingji Star Hall was attacked to the point of sealing its halls, many high-level members died in battle.
After their deaths, the authority naturally reverted to the Star-picking Tower.
Thus, fifty percent of this Star-picking Tower sub-tower’s authority became ownerless.
Lastly, and most critically, Demon Arrow Mo Ji held one-tenth of the authority of this Star-picking Tower sub-tower.
Combined with Qi Shanye’s share, they had fifty percent of the authority.
Under the Star Tower’s rules, holding fifty percent of a Star-picking Tower’s authority allows for proposing changes to many external affairs of the sub-tower, such as which main tower to connect with, which to communicate with, and which main tower’s transmission to open. Similarly, it also allows for choosing which main tower to disconnect, shut down communication with, and close transmission etc.
As long as the other authority holders do not object, it can be approved.
Of course, there are more specific rules involved, but Qi Shanye did not need them.
Because the other fifty percent of the authority in this sub-tower he controlled was without an owner.
So, any decision he made would go unopposed and be executed.
Nevertheless, Qi Shanye held only forty percent authority of this Star-picking Tower sub-tower, as decided by the main tower.
Below, the tricky operation came into play.
Qi Shanye planned to use Demon Arrow Mo Ji and their combined fifty percent authority to completely sever all ties with the Lingji Star Hall’s main tower of the Star-picking Strands, then, Qi Shanye and Demon Arrow Mo Ji would voluntarily destroy the authority imprints they held within the sub-tower.
As a result, this Star-picking Tower sub-tower would become an object without an owner, and since the main tower of Lingji’s Star-picking Tower was sealed, it also lost connection and could not revert to the main tower, becoming truly ownerless.
Then it would be up to Xu Jin to refine and take control.
In theory, Xu Jin could then obtain a hundred percent of the authority of this Star-picking Tower sub-tower!
Qi Shanye told Xu Jin all this with indescribable pride!
Taking sole control of a Star-picking Tower sub-tower, something not even the Star Lords of the Four Great Star Halls and countless other powerhouses could achieve, he did it, and he was justifiably proud!
Then, he could achieve another important goal—to obtain the ultimate versions of many Star Patterns of Lingji Star Hall!
Back then, as just a Sub-hall Master of Lingji Star Hall, Qi Shanye held a status similar to the previous Hu Xuechuan. Naturally, he could not learn the ultimate versions of many Star Patterns of Lingji Star Hall.
To learn them, one had to earn merits and rewards, fulfilling many of Lingji Star Hall’s conditions before learning.
Even after the sealing of Lingji Star Hall’s halls, Qi Shanye could not learn them, and neither could he with Demon Arrow Mo Ji combining their fifty percent authority.
Changing the learning requirements for the various Star Pattern data stored within the sub-tower needed more than eighty percent of the authority’s agreement to be changed!
The internal operating rules of the Star Tower still followed the regulations previously set by Lingji Star Hall.
Fifty percent authority couldn’t make the change!
But what if Xu Jin gained a hundred percent control authority? He could then change the bottom-level operating rules of this Star Tower.
Thereby, Xu Jin could naturally learn the latest versions of many Star Patterns of Lingji Star Hall.
