Drawing An Array... Surprising The Instructor...

Failure.

Although he had successfully sealed the array, Kranos realized that some of the mana circuits were transmitting insufficient mana. As a result, the array couldn't fully activate.

"It seems I'll have to perfect my mana circuits first."

He immediately came up with a solution. With that thought, Kranos began refining the circuits he had drawn. At first, it was extremely difficult—the flaws were nearly invisible. However, using the foundational principles of arrays and formations, he gradually began to understand where the problems lay.

Once he felt confident in his mastery, he took a deep breath to calm his mind, picked up the array pen, and began redrawing the formation on fresh array paper. His fingers moved with precision, tracing elegant arcs on the surface. Having already succeeded once in crafting a defensive array, the process now flowed smoothly.
