Now it seemed that the process of "Golden Paper Limit Breaking" was more akin to constantly researching with existing knowledge, then a flash of "Spiritual Light," leading to the successful creation of new witchcraft.
It was just that Golden Paper compressed this process into an instant and, like an enforced rule, ensured its inevitable success, guaranteeing that the witchcraft after Limit Breaking was bound to be superior to the previous one.
Colin was not yet able to control or interfere with such a process but could barely perceive it.
However, no matter what, the witchcraft that emerged from Limit Breaking in Colin's mind was indistinguishable from witchcraft he had personally researched.
This also meant that as long as he used Golden Paper to "research" witchcraft, he would not be affected by "Tainted babbling" like other people doing witchcraft research.
As Colin's words fell, a look of pleasant surprise appeared on Ocasie's face.
Perhaps due to guilt over her initial prejudice, or maybe for some other reason, she hoped from her heart that Colin could become a member of the True Knowledge Society, just like her.
"Let's conduct the assessment, Shelley," urged Ocasie, impatiently adjusting her glasses, then paused and added, "Oh, I almost forgot to mention, Mr. Colin is also our School's 'Golden Feather' talent!"
"Right." Shelley showed little reaction, just giving a slight nod before extending her hand to Colin, "Please give me your created witchcraft for the membership assessment."
"Of course." Colin handed over the neatly bound booklet.
The following procedure was much like it had been at the General Affairs Castle; Shelley also signed a confidentiality contract and then began to read through the "Steel Temperature Resistance Field" detailing a single Limit Breaking carefully.
Colin waited patiently.
Before long, Shelley put down the Crystal Ball and the witchcraft booklet, "It's indeed a brand-new witchcraft that has not been recorded by the True Knowledge Society."
Just when Colin thought it was all over, Shelley picked up the booklet again and asked:
"May I ask what was the original research direction you took and why did you choose the form of a composite Force Field?"
Colin was startled, but quickly recovered and calmly responded:
"The 'Steel Temperature Resistance Field' was actually inspired by 'Steel Armor,' the 'Hope Defense Field,' and sub-level 'High Temperature Tolerance.' I wanted to create a witchcraft that combines the advantages of each. A single Force Field obviously couldn't meet my requirements, so I chose to use the form of a composite Force Field in the end."
"Hmm." Shelley nodded slightly, her satin-like white hair slightly shaking, the tips brushing her smooth, youthful cheek. After thinking for a moment, she asked, "The temperature resistance structure is not a Force Field; how did it integrate with the protective Force Field?"
Ocasie looked at Shelley with an admiring expression.
Not just anyone could be on duty in this library... At least, she couldn't.
If Colin was a genius in Wizard cultivation, Shelley was a genius in witchcraft research.
In fact, if compared, her Talent in witchcraft research was even more exaggerated than Colin's Talent in cultivation!
"In fact, the temperature resistance structure is not integrated, but more like an overlay, like wrapping a wooden shield with a layer of iron. Of course, it can also be said to wrap an iron shield with a wooden overlay."
Colin continued to answer, but he was somewhat astonished in his mind.
Unlike the previous witch at the General Affairs Castle who had not understood his witchcraft at all, this very young Witch before him understood his witchcraft in such a short time.
And quite profoundly!
"Can you be more specific? How were they combined so tightly?" Shelley continued to ask, her expression serious and her pale blue eyes intently fixed on him, filled with curiosity and inquiry.
Touching his nose, Colin pressed down the slight discomfort of being scrutinized and answered:
"The Force Field is not dense and smooth..."
By this time, Ocasie had started to lose track of their conversation.
Shelley and Colin were back and forth, getting closer as they talked; eventually, she even took out two pens and a stack of manuscript paper and begun sketching and writing with Colin on the spot.
"The 'Steel Force Field' shows properties similar to steel because of its unique structure..."
"The 'Hope Defense Field' has some resistance to spirit attacks because..."
Watching this scene, Ocasie felt out of place, becoming an outsider in the library.
A feeling of defeat crept into her heart while she looked at Colin and Shelley sitting together, and a subtle wave of irritation crossed her mind.
Thankfully, this irritation did not last long.
After half an hour, the assessment was over.
Shelley handed back the booklet to Colin, pausing to say earnestly, "This 'Steel Temperature Resistance Field' is of a quality that can be considered excellent among the Lower First Rank witchcraft."
'A Lower First Rank?' Ocasie was somewhat surprised; she had thought the witchcraft Colin mentioned he created was just some Zero Level spells.
After all, she knew Colin had only Advanced to First Rank Wizard a few months ago...
But then again, it had already been a few months, and creating a single Lower First Rank witchcraft did not seem so extraordinary, maybe he had been researching it since his Apprentice days.
Just like Shelley beside her, she too had created First Rank Witchcraft during her Apprentice period.
"So, have I passed the assessment?" Colin said with a smile, not in a hurry to take back the witchcraft booklet.
"You have," Shelley nodded vigorously, her chin-length white hair swinging, and she continued pushing the booklet forward with her delicate hand, signaling Colin to take it back.
