Three of them came to an open field. There was a small canon there on top of a table and a seed.
"Kid you are a sapling right? Then let me tell you why you passed the requirements of taking the second phase. One, you need to break at least three level-50 magic elements crystal pearls. Two, you need to break a level-150 crystal pearl on your dominant magic element. Three, you must have all the crystal pearls when you reach level 25. And lastly, you are stuck on level 2. You just need to have one of those four and you got three".
"Now there are four stages on the second phase and there are no levels meaning you only need to do it once. Stand over there and let's start the first stage."
Julian headed towards the center of the field while he waited for further instructions.
"The first stage will test if you have the spatial magic. You must create two things that will let you enter and let you exit on a different place. You can make it big or small but you need to maintain for a certain amount of time. Please place the exit on top of you and let it go farther upwards as far as you can.You pass when I tell you to stop."
"Like two doors or two holes connected to each other?"
"Yeah exactly like that."
_Okay I can do this. So what should I imagine? A door should be the easiest one to imagine but I think for practicality I will create two huge holes._ Julian finally planned what he needs to and started creating two huge holes on top of the other. He then manipulated the second one to go upwards as far as he can feel it. The huge hole can easily fit to four or five persons depending on the situation.
Prima quietly observed what Julian had done and was impressed. The second hole Julian created went upwards with a pace so fast, it vanished from Prima's sight in seconds. He finally threw a huge rock on the first hole and after it exited on the second hole, the rock appeared in front of him without even a scratch to it.
"Stop. You pass the first test." Prima shouted at the youth and Julian finally stopped maintaining the two holes.
"Okay, now the second and third stage focuses on transformation and amplification magic. We will do both at the same time using this canon over here. You need to make this thing bigger while amplifying the power of the canon. If you are ready then just release the power towards me. You can use all elements or just your dominant one to power this one. You can start now".
Prima tossed the small canon to Julian. The kid tried to imagine it getting bigger but this time nothing happened. He kept pouring all his mana into it but it never grew even an inch. After a few seconds he finally can't control the power inside the canon and shot it to Prima. Prima now held some kind of silver shield to counter the power of the canon. Julian was surprised because the shield didn't deflect the power but absorbed it instead.
"You failed the transformation stage while you barely passed the amplification stage."
" Now to the last stage, time magic. Try planting this seed and try to forcefully let it grow. You can start now."
Prima threw the seed to Julian who planted the seed without asking anymore question. Julian placed his hands above where he planted the seed. After an hour, the seed turned into a tall tree and Prima finally ended the second phase.
"Julian before you take the third and last phase, I now bestow to you your rewards. I should give you these after the ceremony but Phantasma actually gave me the rewards so I guess it wants you get it now before you proceed."
Prima presented to him a treasure chest with majestic purple color. He opened it and saw a little box, a bunch of clothes, two pairs of boots and a gold liquid on a triangular container.
"This is Fool's Gold. Brother Prima I think you got the wrong chest. See, there is a set of dragon clothing. Wait even Porter's Maximus and Glaudius boots are in here." Pascal who quietly observing just a moment ago exclaimed frantically as he identified the things inside the chest.
"No, Phantasma definitely gave it to him. I have little supply of Fool's Gold but seeing the clothes here, I think It wants Julian to create a Permanent Fool."
Julian opened the little box and saw a normal looking ring with a gold gem in it. He was so fascinated by the markings on the ring and momentarily stared at it while the two genies where chattering between themselves. He put it in his left middle ring finger. The ring was freakishly fit for him. Prima finally noticed the ring on Julian's finger and astonished expression finally broke the genie's pokerface.
