"Sigh, I wonder if I'll get to witness such a spectacle before I break through to the sixth circle." Lor shook his head with a wry smile.
He had accumulated nearly sixty such experimental conjectures in his hands.
But due to time constraints, he simply couldn't formally conduct experiments.
At this moment, he once again understood the saying often spoken by seventh-circle mages in his past life.
'The path to the pinnacle for a wizard cannot be walked alone, unless you are born with innate knowledge.'
Sufficient territory, enough wizard geniuses, and the birth of enough kindred spirits, can truly perfect a faction.
Of course, the Time Faction might be an exception, as it is intrinsically a whole.
"Forget it, let's take it step by step." Lor shook his head, dismissing these vexing thoughts, and instructed in his mind, "Open the panel."
An illusory panel appeared before his eyes. Ignoring everything else, Lor fixed his gaze directly on the newly fused Space Jumping Witchcraft.
[Space Jumping Witchcraft (4.9+0.3 rings) (Limit Break 0.4) (Can break limit, no fifth-circle witchcraft position, cannot advance)]
1: Space Jump, jump distance is based on the positioning distance, currently can withstand space fluctuations of 5.6 rings.
2: Spatial Mark, leaving a spatial mark allows for ultra-long-distance space jumps, currently with a jump precision of 5.6.
3: Space Penetration, can penetrate space barriers below the 5.6-ring level.]
The newly added traits are, as always, concise and clear.
It is worth mentioning that a 5.6-ring barrier represents the barrier level of an ordinary medium-sized plane.
Lor was unsure whether the Wizard Plane was above this level now.
However, it wasn't a major issue, since he was certain that the current Wizard Plane wasn't a top-tier medium-sized plane, otherwise those Sea Lords in the sea region wouldn't just be Tier Five but Tier Six.
As long as some limits are broken, penetrating the Wizard Plane's barrier is just a matter of time.
When he becomes fifth-circle, top-tier medium-sized plane barriers will seem like paper to him.
"Break the limit, max it out for me!" Lor commanded the panel.
[Space Jumping Witchcraft (4.9+0.3 rings) (Limit Break 0.4) → Space Jumping Witchcraft (4.9+0.3 rings) (Limit Break 0.6) (No fifth-circle witchcraft position, cannot advance)]
Breaking the limit consecutively twice, the Space Jumping Witchcraft was elevated to 5.8 rings, with the words 'can break limit' disappearing once again.
Having done the last thing, he took out the Continent Communication Device and dialed Kateya's contact number.
The small banquet he arranged seven years ago, it was time to hold it.
...
The next day at noon, the top floor of the Lor Wizard Tower's grand lounge.
Lor, Levan, Kateya, Villan, Colin, and Beck gathered together, leisurely enjoying the delicacies on the long table while chatting about various interesting topics.
When they had nearly finished eating, Lor looked at Levan and asked, "Levan, do you have any ideas on the seventh Fire Elemental Analysis Problem?"
The Fire Elemental Analysis Problem was specially crafted for Levan by Yasen in the Wizard Calendar year 170, consisting of eight problems in total, finishing all would guarantee becoming fourth-circle.
By the year 200 in the Wizard Calendar, Levan had completed the fifth problem and had a thirty percent chance of breaking through to the fourth circle.
Not until around the Wizard Calendar year 700 did he complete the sixth problem, raising his chance of breaking through to the fourth circle to fifty percent.
After that, his problem-solving progress seemed to be stuck, as nearly seven hundred years passed without figuring out a solution for the seventh problem.
He could naturally ask Yasen for the answer, but that would be meaningless.
Unless he figures it out by himself, it means he hasn't reached that level of understanding of runes.
The eight problems represent more than just eight problems, but a test of Levan's overall comprehension of runes.
"Uh..." Levan's previously relaxed and content smile stiffened, he sighed and replied a bit helplessly, "Mentor, I've tried my best, but no matter how hard I try, I can't delve further. Why not just approve my breakthrough to the fourth circle? A fifty percent chance is not small."
"If I fail to break through, let's just say it's destiny's arrangement."
He truly didn't want to wait any longer. He had a clear understanding of his talent, and managing to solve six problems was already close to his limit.
However, his mentor and grandfather seemed way too stubborn, joining forces to prevent him from attempting a breakthrough without solving the seventh problem, which was quite annoying...
"Destiny's arrangement..." Lor's lips twitched, "Have you told this to your grandfather?"
"No, I wouldn't dare." Levan smiled awkwardly.
"Would you like me to convey it for you?" Lor asked, wearing an amused expression.
"No, mentor, please." Levan replied urgently, "I'm already over 1300 years old, I really don't want to get another beating from the elders."
"Hahahahaha~"
"Hahaha~"
Levan's words made everyone present burst into laughter, filling the hall with a cheerful atmosphere.
After a moment, Lor stopped laughing, thought for a moment, and then seriously said, "I'll give you a clear time limit, if by the Wizard Calendar year 1700, you haven't figured out the seventh problem, just go ahead and break through. If you have some insight before then, then wait a bit longer."
"However, you can wait no later than the year 1850. If by then you still haven't organized your thoughts to solve the seventh problem, I'll give you two options."
"Either be sealed like my mentor, or attempt a breakthrough directly, and if you fail, be sealed like my mentor."
Setting a time of 150 years, extended by 20 times, amounts to 3000 years, even if the Pure Dew of the Yinhua Race was used up once by Agular, it would be enough for them to accumulate again.
If it's not enough, then slaughter a few to kill the chicken and take the eggs, it's bound to be enough.
"Mentor, could you tell me why you would want to seal us?" Levan asked curiously.
"I can't." Lor shook his head.
If this little guy asked him privately in private, he would say, but now it wasn't just him and Levan here.
Kateya, Villan, Colin, and Beck were all watching.
He couldn't guarantee that all four of them would have access to Pure Dew, so why say it and create unnecessary unhappiness?
"Okay." Levan nodded regretfully.
"Villan, why don't you three also talk about your problem-solving progress?" Lor turned to the other three students and said.
He took time to tailor a set of Space Elemental Analysis Problems for the other three students, according to Yasen's method, as a responsibility of being a mentor.
He would give whatever he could, and for what he couldn't satisfy everyone, there would naturally be a sequence in his mind.
"I've reached the fourth problem but have no idea about the fifth," Villan replied.
"I've done up to the third problem and have some ideas about the fourth," Colin quickly answered.
"I... I've only done up to the second problem." Beck seemed very embarrassed, compared to the progress of the senior brother and sister, his progress was really not presentable, but there was no choice, the Space Rune was too difficult to understand, he already tried his best.
"Hmm." Lor nodded and instructed, "Villan, Colin, try to break through after you solve the fifth problem, and as for Beck, I hope you can solve the fourth problem before the Wizard Calendar year 1900, and then attempt to break through as a fourth-circle Spatial Mage."
The Space Wizard System indeed was more difficult compared to other systems, and although Villan and the others had the best resources, and were geniuses themselves, the probability of success given the current progress was only two to three percent.
Two percent for Beck, three percent for Villan and Colin.
After understanding the students' progress, Lor turned his gaze to Kateya, asking, "Kateya, what about you? Do you have the confidence to break through to the fourth circle?"
Kateya was a pioneer, creating everything on her own. Whether she could break through all depended on how her fused witchcraft turned out, so it was difficult to measure the specific success rate.
"If nothing unexpected happens, I only have at most a ten percent chance of becoming a fourth-circle mage." Kateya said with some bitterness, "Witchcraft fusion is really too difficult, I simply can't create a third core fused witchcraft that can complement each other."
She wasn't lacking in experimental resources, but creating complementary witchcraft was beyond her capability, unrelated to resources, but all about wisdom.
"You still have 600 years, try again." Lor sighed.
He really didn't want Kateya to die of old age. Regardless of whether she initially harbored other motives, everything was judged by actions rather than intentions, and over the years she proved with her actions that she was trustworthy.
He had already made up his mind to seal her in the year 1700 of the Wizard Calendar, as the third person to receive the baptism of Pure Dew.
If Levan successfully breaks through, she would be the second.
As for the other three students...
We'll see.
