Seeing the ineffectiveness of the sorcery, the expressions of the three became somewhat grim. Although this wave of magical attack was not their strongest means, it was still formidable.
Yet, such a powerful technique failed to even create a ripple, and this scene made Reirfu's expression serious.
Having experienced countless battles, he had seen all kinds of opponents. He had encountered powerful enemies before, but with his strong fighting will, he had always managed to emerge victorious.
However, facing a defense that seemed nearly unbreakable left him at a loss. If they couldn't even break through the defense, how could they talk about fighting or defeating the opponent?
With this thought in mind, a shadow loomed over the hearts of the three; they were unsure of what to do. However, surrendering was not an option. Franklin aimed to cut off their hopes of becoming wizards, and it was impossible for them not to fight back desperately.
They quickly gathered their courage and unleashed countless spells toward their opponent, hoping to find a weakness in the Spatial Barrier through sheer numbers.
Franklin made no move at all, remaining calm and seemingly confident as he allowed their attacks to come.
Although Spatial Sorcery was immensely powerful and unpredictable—so much so that ordinary people couldn't even detect its traces—the cost in magical energy was significant, which is why he rarely used it.
More often than not, he relied on the Spatial Barrier to drain his enemies' magical energy while letting them attack freely.
Due to the nature of the Spatial Barrier, very few attacks could actually land on it, meaning that the magical energy he expended was less than a fraction of what his opponents used. No matter how abundant their magical energy was, they couldn't win against such overwhelming consumption.
He particularly enjoyed watching others transition from excitement to caution to seriousness, ultimately descending into despair and fleeing. Yet no one considered that the Spatial Wizard was not only the most powerful wizard but also incredibly swift in pursuit—something even Thunder Element wizards could not compare to.
So even if they managed to escape, Franklin was confident he could catch up with them, watching as they fled only to pursue them again. It was like a cat playing with a mouse; after repeated teasing, he would ultimately leave them in despair, believing that even escape was impossible.
Unfortunately, he did not anticipate that he would face setbacks this time. As a scholar renowned for his vast knowledge, Daniel, the Wizard Seed, had already input the entire library into a chip, allowing him to access information at any moment.
The Flame Throne Wizard Academy has a history spanning thousands of years and has indeed seen wizards of the Spatial System, which is quite peculiar, as almost no one could defeat them. However, it was not without its solutions.
At least one record in a miscellaneous book documented an event from 1500 years ago, where a Wizard Seed with the Immortal Fire Phoenix Gift had achieved a Mental Power of 98 points, nearly reaching the limit of a Wizard Apprentice.
Yet, under such circumstances, a Spatial Mage Apprentice suddenly emerged within the academy. No one could defeat him, and he ultimately became the Wizard Seed.
With such remarkable achievements, the Wizard Seed with the Immortal Fire Phoenix Gift eventually faced him due to interests at stake and suffered three defeats in three battles, losing face completely.
It is important to note that at that time, the Mental Power of the Spatial Mage Apprentice was only 60 points; he was merely an ordinary Third-Level Apprentice and could not compare to the Wizard Seed with the Immortal Fire Phoenix Gift. Yet he still managed to defeat his powerful opponent three times in a row, demonstrating the strength of the Spatial Wizard.
For the sake of reputation and interests, the Wizard Seed with the Immortal Fire Phoenix Gift searched for all available information and even sought out sages despite potential embarrassment. Ultimately, he learned about the weaknesses of the Spatial Barrier.
The principle of the Spatial Barrier is to divide the inside and outside into two spaces, preventing a wizard's magic from entering other spaces and causing it to dissipate in empty areas. This is what makes the Spatial Barrier so formidable.
The weakness of the Spatial Barrier is related to this point; its strongest aspect is also its weakest. No matter how powerful the Spatial Barrier is, it cannot ignore the situation of apprentices.
As a wizard on the Wizarding Continent, it is impossible to leave this continent and enter other spaces.
Thus, the space within the Spatial Barrier must have some close connection to the Wizarding Continent; otherwise, the only outcome for a Spatial Mage Apprentice would be being exiled to another space by his own Spatial Barrier and never being able to return.
Upon discovering its weakness, armed with powerful Mental Power, the Wizard Seed with the Immortal Fire Phoenix Gift ultimately defeated his opponent and preserved his reputation.
When he left, in order to prevent other apprentices in the academy from encountering a Spatial Mage Apprentice as well, he wrote down this experience as a travelogue and concealed it within the library. This allowed him to evade pursuit by the Spatial Mage Apprentice and keep this secret safe.
However, he never considered that in the vast sea of books in the library, with so many texts available, who would have the time to read such a miscellaneous record. Therefore, it had been left untouched, and no one took it seriously.
Only Daniel managed to clear out the entire library to discover this secret.
According to that record, at that time he relied on the all-pervasive flames to recklessly burn through the Spatial Barrier, ultimately causing it to falter and reveal a flaw.
Of course, the situation now was different from his. Franklin was powerful, and his Mental Power was likely on par with or even surpassed that of Reirfu. Even with the combined strength of the three of them, they might not be able to defeat other apprentices from different systems, let alone a Spatial System apprentice.
Fortunately, their opponent was overconfident and did not attack, which gave them a glimmer of opportunity.
Daniel whispered, "Switch to Raging Waves of the Angry Sea."
Reirfu paused for a moment. He was currently using his most proficient earth and metal magic in the Magic Array, yet he could not inflict any damage on the opponent. If he switched to the Water Element magic he was less skilled in, what good would it do?
However, after spending so much time together with Daniel, he had developed some understanding of him. Daniel would not give random commands at such a critical moment; there must be a reason behind it. Gritting his teeth, he switched to Water Element magic, Raging Waves of the Angry Sea.
Suddenly, the earth spikes, earth balls, stone balls, stone giants, and rock monsters that had been dominating the battlefield vanished in an instant, replaced by a vast ocean where countless giant waves crashed against the Spatial Barrier.
Daniel remained still beside him, utilizing his chip's keen observational ability to monitor how the Spatial Barrier reacted to the giant waves.
Accompanied by a blue glow, Daniel saw Franklin reflected in his eyes. In his view, Franklin was magnified to the extreme—standing firmly on the ground like a towering giant, silently enduring the assault of the waves.
In such a massive scenario, every detail about him was magnified countless times and observed repeatedly by Daniel. Even the slightest reaction from the Spatial Barrier, or if Franklin breathed heavily or showed a hint of seriousness in his eyes, was clearly visible.
Suddenly, Daniel whispered, "Found it. Attack his forehead."
Reirfu did not hesitate upon hearing this. He slammed his two shields onto the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust. The steel spikes above him fell down with his movement, shooting towards Franklin's forehead.
Franklin, who had remained motionless and calm, slightly retracted his right index finger and then pretended as if nothing had happened, tilting his head to avoid the incoming attack.
This seemingly unconscious action caught Daniel's attention as he was already searching for the weakness of the Spatial Barrier. Especially when he saw Franklin's finger retract slightly, he immediately understood that this was indeed a weakness of the Spatial Barrier, prompting him to command the two to launch a fierce attack on Franklin's forehead.
Franklin's expression suddenly turned grim. If it could be considered a coincidence once or twice, three or four times targeting his forehead clearly indicated that the opponent had discovered the weakness of the Spatial Barrier.
This shook him to his core, and he could no longer maintain his calm demeanor. He had long known about the weakness of the Spatial Barrier, which was an inevitable flaw of the Spatial System magic, but no one had ever been able to uncover this weakness before.
After all, this was merely his weakness, not a fatal flaw; it could not withstand any attacks. The area itself had strong defenses, although it could not compare to other parts of the Spatial Barrier, it was still quite formidable and not something an ordinary apprentice could breach.
Moreover, he had meticulously chosen the forehead as the location for this confrontation; this spot was inherently vital for any person and could not be ignored.
Even if others were unwilling and sought to find weaknesses in the Spatial Barrier, they would never dare to target that area.
In their subconscious minds, that spot was perceived as the strongest point of the Spatial Barrier. Even if it wasn't, any attacking magic would allow the opponent to see clearly and easily block it without any effect.
