I spent the whole night arranging different basic, Intermediate and advanced array formations mentioned in Lorenzo's notes. Going through all of them, I realized they all had one weakness in common, nature's soul pathways that constituted them.

Nature's soul pathways are open-source and accessible to all. This meant that anyone with little knowledge of array formation could tamper with Nature's soul pathways to mess with the array formation you have arranged. The only way to avoid that is by having a more substantial influence over nature's soul pathways used in your array formation than your opponent. Therefore usually, array masters use high-grade cores in their array formation to get an edge over their opponent. But in front of an expert Array master, that is not enough

This process of tampering with nature's soul pathway to mess with your opponent's arranged array formation, I decided to call Array Formation Hacking.

There are two important things needed for the Hacking of Array Formation,

1. Strong influence on the surrounding nature's soul pathways.

2. Average knowledge in array formation and minimum knowledge about the arranged array formation.

Strong influence over nature's soul pathway surrounding the array formation is required to bypass the enemy's influence over nature's soul pathway, allowing us to tamper with the array formation.

Once you have a strong influence over the surrounding nature's soul pathways, you require to know which soul pathways of nature are being used in the arranged array formation. By tempering with these soul pathways, you cause the enter array formation to break down.

Now that I had come up with this theory, I was willing to go one step further and create a card that would precisely help with the hacking of array formations through nature's soul pathways. For that, I needed a lot of specific card ingredients. I could have Ann's aid get them for me, but I felt that Ann had been hospitable enough, so I decided to head back to the warehouse.

"Good morning, Wyatt."

I planned to leave the base quietly without the hassle of saying goodbye, but I guessed wrong. As soon as I walked out of the cabin, I was greeted by Ann and Lorenzo. Getting greeted by two card emperors earlier in the morning was something. Ignoring that feeling, I returned the greetings, "Good morning, you two."

"Where are you ahead?" Asked Ann.

"To the warehouse to freshen up," I replied.

"You can freshen up here. Use the base's shower room, or if you don't mind, I can use dirt purge on you. It is a lot faster and cleaner." Ann suggested.

"About that, Old man, your notes didn't have any array formation recipe for arranging a cleansing array. Why?" I wanted a cleaning card for a while now, so when I learned how to arrange array formation up to advanced array formation, I wanted to create a cleaning card for my personal use, using permanent array formation. But to my surprise, Lorenzo's notes didn't have any recipes on cleansing array formation.

"Even the most basic recipes on cleansing array formation have copyright," Lorenzo answered nonchalantly.

"What? How can that be? There have to be old recipes that don't have any owners now. Right?" I asked in astonishment.

"No, the chore cards have been recently discovered. In olden times card apprentices were too busy surviving to care about such luxury cards. These cards flooded the market recently. Therefore, free recipes for cleansing array formation are not available." Lorenzo narrated the history of chore cards, aka cards that make a card apprentice's life easier.

"I see. But you are a renowned array master. You should have one or two cleansing array formation recipes of your own. Right?" I asked to see if Lorenzo could lend me one of his cleansing array formation recipes.

"Boy, nobody got time for that. Instead of researching a cleansing array formation, I could do something of more significance at that time." For some reason, I felt like Lorenzo was dodging my question.

"Fine, I guess I have no choice but to create a cleaning array formation." I declared.

"Boy, it hasn't been a day since you started learning the array formation, but you dare to declare about creating cleaning array formation. You are a dreamer, aren't you." Lorenzo scoffed.

...

According to Lorenzo, Wyatt discovered the nature of the temperature soul pathway thanks to his aura sight and the detailed explanation about the heater and cooler array formation provided in his notes.

Understanding the nature of the soul pathway and creating a new recipe for array formation were two different things. To understand the nature of the soul pathway, one needs keen observation and a deeper connection with nature. At the same time, creating an array formation recipe requires adequate knowledge of every soul pathway involved and how they will react and respond to each other. The challenges faced by the two were entirely different. Therefore, Lorenzo felt Wyatt was being wishful when he said he would create his recipe for a cleansing array formation.

...

"Old man, I guess you haven't learned your lesson. How about this? If I create a recipe for cleansing array formation right here, right now. What are you willing to bet?" I proposed a wager to Lorenzo.

"You know what you want from me. You tell me that, and I will ask you what I want as a bet." Lorenzo could see that the boy was up to something, but he didn't care because he knew creating a recipe for array formation was easier said than done.

"I want all your notes on the array formation till to date." Lorenzo had only given me notes on Basic, intermediate, and advanced array formation. He did not provide me with his notes on higher-tier array formation. Now that I have mastered advanced array formation, I hungered for a higher tier.

"Is that it? Fine. But if you fail to create an array formation by today evening, I want you to stop being stubborn and accept Southern watch's protection and start staying with us until you leave for college." Lorenzo didn't ask anything for himself, but he asked me to stop being careless and accept the southern watch's protection by hiding in their base until I left for University.
