Chapter 262: Chapter 22: Super Magic Spell Slots and Another Satellite Launch

As always, the Witch Spirit’s will swiftly descended upon the Meditation Room.

But this time, the message delivered by the mechanical voice sounded a little unusual:

"Apprentice examination request received. Confirmation in progress."

"Please be advised: Once the examination begins, it cannot be canceled. The Witchcraft performed for the examination must not be a Soul Witchcraft. It must be a Witchcraft learned from the Mysteries Hall."

Mo Ning couldn’t help but smile.

’The Witch Spirit’s words contained a great deal of information.’

’First, the Witch Spirit almost never said things like "confirmation in progress."’

’This wasn’t because it needed to "confirm" anything, but rather a reminder for the applicant to "confirm" their own decision.’

’Second, the phrase "it cannot be canceled" was another well-intentioned reminder—if he wasn’t prepared, he shouldn’t apply rashly.’

’Third, "must not be a Soul Witchcraft" indicated that the Witch Spirit possessed a great deal of unknown information.’

’It had even keenly sensed that Mo Ning had already mastered a Level Zero Soul Witchcraft.’

’This was also a reminder—taking shortcuts would not be permitted.’

Evidently, applying for his first Apprentice examination on the second day after being promoted to First Level Apprentice had managed to surprise even the Witch Spirit, a rare occurrence.

That was why it tirelessly offered reminder after reminder.

Mo Ning smiled faintly and replied in a firm tone, "I confirm my request for the Apprentice examination!"

The Witch Spirit fell silent for a rare moment before making a further inquiry:

"Please declare the name of the Level Zero Witchcraft you will perform for this Apprentice examination."

Mo Ning’s voice was clear and bright. "The Magic Pen Technique!"

The Witch Spirit displayed an extremely rare patience, its voice faintly wavering:

"The Magic Pen Technique requires a Spiritual Strength of 1.5. Your current Spiritual Strength is 1.1. During the examination, you may not use any Secret Technique or Magic Potion to temporarily increase your Spiritual Strength, and you must maintain writing for one minute. Please confirm."

’This was yet another well-intentioned reminder—my Spiritual Strength is insufficient. Can I really cast a Level Zero Witchcraft?’

’Moreover, for a beginner, writing for a "full" minute could be considered a significant challenge.’

Mo Ning nodded. "Confirmed!"

The Witch Spirit’s mechanical voice returned to its usual calm:

"The Apprentice examination has begun. Please cast the Level Zero Witchcraft ’Magic Pen Technique’ within five minutes. Failure to cast within the specified time will result in a failed examination."

At this point, there was no turning back.

’Mo Ning had a feeling—the Witch Spirit seemed to have guessed how he was able to cast Witchcraft that surpassed his Spiritual Strength.’

He stared at the scale pattern paper in his hand and used his Spiritual Power to activate the temporary model in his mind.

In his Spiritual World, the model flickered.

It leaped over to the side of the slowly rotating first Spirit Ring and slid smoothly into a special "berth," just like a ship docking in a harbor.

For this type of "berth," Wizards had a specialized term—Super Magic Spell Slots.

Simply put, by connecting a Witchcraft Model to a Super Magic Spell Slot, the Spirit Ring could provide a greater output of Magic Power, directly enhancing the Witchcraft’s might.

However, this method of "super magic output" would inevitably cause a powerful impact on the Witchcraft Model.

Under normal circumstances, the Witchcraft Model would most likely collapse completely, leading to a Casting failure and causing a severe shock to the Spiritual World.

But the Super Magic Spell Slots could transfer this impact to the Spirit Ring, allowing the Spirit Ring to bear the full pressure and thus avoid catastrophic consequences.

All in all, the creation of Super Magic Spell Slots was an absolute stroke of genius.

Mo Ning had spent a whole month deducing the structure of his first Spirit Ring, and a significant amount of that effort was spent on calculating the Super Magic Spell Slots.

The first Spirit Ring he created possessed three Super Magic Spell Slots, reaching the absolute limit of his soul.

Each Super Magic Spell Slot could provide an 8% to 10% power boost to a Witchcraft.

This was his trump card, the reason he could surpass his limits and cast the Magic Pen Technique.

The "overload" generated by forcibly driving a Witchcraft Model that required 1.5 Spiritual Strength with only 1.1 could also be transferred to the Spirit Ring via the Super Magic Spell Slots.

His Spirit Ring’s structure was exceptionally outstanding. Its stability far exceeded that of an ordinary Apprentice, making it more than capable of withstanding the impact of the overload.

The next moment, an invisible energy channel was instantly established between the Spirit Ring and the model.

A torrent of Magic Power burst forth from the Magic Power Ring, surging violently into the temporary model.

Then, the Magic Power projected outward, coalescing into an illusory Ink Tube Pen.

Mo Ning stared at the pen, his thoughts racing.

The Ink Tube Pen seemed to be directly connected to his thoughts, its tip pouring out one beautiful Divination symbol after another.

They landed rapidly on the blank scale pattern paper, indistinguishable from characters written by a real Ink Tube Pen. Sixty Secret Spirit Texts flowed from the tip every second.

This speed was indeed much faster than Pen Control. Without a physical pen acting as a "middleman," it was also much more effortless.

The content appearing on the paper was precisely the Divination structure of the Super Magic Spell Slots.

Through this simple and direct method, Mo Ning was openly explaining the reason he could surpass his limits. ’My Divination skills are just a little bit better, that’s all.’

’I really didn’t cheat!’

Soon, the one-minute countdown was nearing its end.

The writing on the scale pattern paper maintained an ultra-high level of stability, completely lacking the flaws like "stuttering" or "shaking" that many beginners experienced.

This demonstrated a superior level of control.

What’s more, this was done while Casting beyond his limits, which raised the difficulty of control by a whole level, making his performance all the more remarkable.

It was so impressive that the Witch Spirit made a rare subjective comment:

"This is an impressive demonstration!"

Mo Ning immediately noticed the difference in wording—it was "demonstration," not "examination"!
