In the flames of the battle for the badge, the enemy apprentices skillfully used the magic circle to form a seemingly indestructible defense line. The apprentices below the third level on our side inevitably felt a panic, but the brave ones still stood up and tried to break this silent situation.

"We can't retreat like this!" Miles, a determined apprentice, patted Tony beside him, his voice was particularly loud in the quiet air. "If we let the enemy complete the magic circle, we will never have another chance."

"But... we can't fight them at all." Tony's voice was trembling, and there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes. "Their magic circle has been set up. If we rush in rashly, we will only die."

Miles shook his head slowly, his eyes firm and persistent: "We must find a breakthrough. Although our strength is weak, we can create a miracle if we unite together."

Another tall apprentice, Jack, came over at this time and said with a frown, "I agree with Miles. We can look for opportunities from the periphery, spread out a little, and act as a lure."

"Lure? You mean distract them?" Tony's eyes gradually lit up, as if he was thinking about the feasibility of this proposal.

"Yes!" Miles' smile showed a hint of encouragement, "Divert their attention, and then we can take the opportunity to break through the magic circle from the other side."

"Okay, so assuming we succeed in getting their attention, what are the next steps?" Tony asked, looking a little worried.

Jack pondered for a moment and added, "After that, it depends on your speed. If you can disrupt their rhythm, even if we can't destroy the magic circle directly, at least we can buy us some time."

"What are you two talking about!" Suddenly, a crisp voice interrupted their discussion. It was Emily, the girl who was always full of confidence. She walked over and looked at Tony with disdain, with a bit of teasing in her tone: "According to your routine, by the time you succeed in attracting attention, the enemy will have already prepared a counterattack."

"Don't be so excited, Emily." Miles tried to ease the atmosphere, "We have to consider all possibilities, otherwise we may not even have a chance."

"You are all too naive." Emily's tone turned serious, "Magic circles are not just simple defenses, they can also fight back. We need a better plan instead of simply rushing in."

"So what's your suggestion?" Jack raised his eyebrows and asked dissatisfiedly.

Emily glanced at them, as if looking for a suitable point to intervene: "We can use some small spells to interfere with their magic circle. For example, we can create some illusions to force them to distract their attention."

"Illusion?" Tony looked puzzled. "Then how do we do it?"

"Simple!" Emily twisted her neck. "We can use a few low-level spells to create light and shadow interference to attract their attention."

Miles clapped his hands, his eyes gradually brightening: "This is a good idea! If we can make them think that an attack is coming, it will definitely distract them."

"Then let's make a plan first." Emily suggested, "Jack, you will be responsible for setting up the interference spell. Miles and I will be responsible for gradually approaching the center of the magic circle. Tony, you will be responsible for observing the enemy's movements. If you find any abnormalities, report to us immediately."

Tony nodded. Although he was still a little nervous, he knew this was a good opportunity. After several discussions, their plan gradually took shape, and the atmosphere became tense and united.

"Everyone, remember this! You must be aware of this! You must not show any fear!" Jack said in a loud voice, and the atmosphere became more and more solemn.

"No problem! We will definitely succeed!" Miles gave him a firm look.

"Let's go, get ready for action!" Emily raised her hand and encouraged everyone.

As the action began, the apprentices dispersed and headed towards the designated location, their heartbeats accompanied by the sound of their footsteps, nervous and excited.

Outside the magic circle, the enemy apprentices were still concentrating, seemingly unaware of the impending threat. Miles, Emily, and Jack each found a hidden position, ready to perform their spells.

"Remember, stay calm and follow the plan." Emily clenched her fists and encouraged herself.

In an instant, a flickering light condensed in her hands, and she released the magical energy, forming a beautiful but illusory light and shadow that floated away.

"Now!" Jack whispered, then raised his staff and began to cast a disruption spell. The light and shadow he controlled began to distort, like a bird taking off into the air, which shocked people.

Not far away, the enemy apprentices turned their heads, their eyes flashing with surprise and alertness. Seeing this, Miles and Emily's hearts suddenly brightened.

"Quick! While they are distracted!" Miles growled, and rushed towards the center of the magic circle with high morale. Emily followed closely behind him, and strong confidence spread in their hearts.

However, an enemy apprentice noticed their movements and shouted: "Enemy attack! We must find them!"

"Hurry up!" The apprentices hurriedly mobilized the power in the magic circle and prepared to counterattack.

"We have to hurry!" Tony became nervous when he saw this. He patrolled the periphery and tried to stay calm.

The power of the magic circle changed instantly, and rays of light shot out, heading straight for Miles and Emily. Although they were well prepared, they were still shocked by the sudden attack.

"Quick! Find cover!" Emily shouted loudly and quickly found a sheltered place.

Miles was anxious and immediately turned his attention to Jack. He knew that Jack had set up a jamming spell on the periphery. If his spell could succeed, it might change the situation.

"Jack!" Miles' voice was full of expectation and determination, "Are you ready for your spell?"

"Get ready! I'll start now!" There was a hint of determination in Jack's eyes, and he quickly waved his staff, releasing more light and shadow interference.

The light instantly passed through the air, interweaving into a huge net, presenting a strange scene in front of the enemy apprentice's eyes. In this interweaving of light and shadow, the enemy was temporarily trapped and lost the rhythm of the battle.
