After sleeping he woke up at full magic power. He checked his status and realized that after using all his power and recovering it increased his magic stat by 1 point. With that he reached the standard of a High Stage Apprentice Caster. After checking his panel for changes ,he went back to training. Instead of just circulating the magic power this time ,I'm going to try and condense it. So the first theory he tried was to condense the power in his heart. He guided the magic power to his heart and allowed it to slowly flow into the heart. As soon as 2% of my power entered ,it beat so strong that he spit blood out of his mouth. However his health did not decrease. Usually it would decrease if he was injured ,but it seems that he had only spit out excess blood. Which was brought about by the magic power condensing. It looks like he succeeded on the first attempt. It brought no visible change to his panel ,but he could clearly feel that as soon as he merged this condensed strand with other condensed strands he should be able to form something out of it. But what? Maybe he could take inspiration from the novels he read. If he wants to form something out of magic power it would probably be best to make a sphere. I've heard that it's the most stable solid form for power. It has no flat point and with the fact that it's a physical manifestation of magic power ,it should be sturdy. I think it will have no problem circulating energy ,the problem is what king of magic element should I use to create it.

After condensing enough power to finally form my magic core ,I decide to go for earth. It seems to be the safest option to test my theory. Fire is definitely out of the picture. Water would be alright ,but it's very malleable and I don't know if it'd be able to take solid form by itself. Wind is also similar to water. But instead of being malleable ,it's unfettered and always flowing. I would need something strong and stable to contain such an element. I believe the only reason I can create such complicated magic theories is because of my Elemental Affinity stat being above 100. It would probably take me forever to understand any of these concepts. After thanking my talent ,I proceeded to try and sense earth element magic power. I used my spiritual sense outside of my body and found that I could only find the four basic elements here. That's so weird. Usually you can't find water and fire elements in the same place. As natural enemies ,they usually like to avoid the other element as much as possible. I search around and find that the elements are gathered in a particular order. With my spiritual sense ,I'm now able to know detail of my surroundings. I realized that I was in a box like area. The walls of the box were covered with a sturdy element. I'm assuming it to be earth elements. Flowing against this huge wall of earth elements is a large current of wind elements. Flowing along the walls of earth elements ,unable to escape. Due to this phenomenon the wind elements became an ever-flowing barrier that kept the water and fire elements in check. It cycled them in a way that almost reminded me of the Taichi symbol. Signifying complete balance between the elements. Enlightened by this scene ,he understand already that his theory was correct. Earth was the right way to go. However the cube shape of the earth seemed to be extremely sturdy on the inside. He felt that it might be better to not restrict his theories within the boundaries of novels. So he used the training space as an example and created a magic cube instead. Making the walls of the cube by imbuing earth elements into his condensed magic power and creating a hollow cube of earth elements. He controlled one of the walls to act like a one-way door. He made it so that as long as he willed it ,he could stop any elements from leaving the magic cube.
