One, two, three notches, then three and a half notches!
The crowd gasped in astonishment when they saw that and burst into applause. Wilbur chose to stop at that moment, as the
current notches surpassed Herbert's three notches. He knew that if he could later control the dimensional tto reverse by two
notches, victory would be his.
Wilbur had only used half a minute at that point. He reached the three-and-a-half notch in only half the tit took Herbert, clearly

Everyone had high hopes for Wilbur. However, while he was able to control the clock hand to move forward, he had never
previously done anything to make the tflow in reverse. Consequently, he was not very familiar with this aspect.
However, since there were still four and a half minutes left, Wilbur believed he should have no problem and could easily pass the
test and secure first place.
Herbert glanced at Sade with an apologetic look in his eyes at that moment. Sade did not speak, he only turned to look at Wilbur.
Then, Wilbur began the second phase of the test, focusing on controlling the reversal of dimensional time.
Tbegan to reverse with Wilbur's will. An invisible force of dimensional energy moved the clock hand in the counterclockwise
direction. A quarter of a notch, then half a notch. Wilbur felt quite pleased to see that. Reversing twas considerably more
challenging than advancing it, but it remained relatively easy for Wilbur.
However, a peculiar force emerged just as Wilbur believed he was certain to win thepetition. Suddenly, the enhancement of
energy within the cubic space disappeared, and the dimensional tgradually slowed down. The clock hand that had been
moving counterclockwise almost ceased to move as it reached three-quarters of a notch.
"Um... Could it be that he reached his limit?" a contestant asked.
"| think it's highly possible," someone replied.
"So, if he can only reach three-quarters of a notch, who will win between him and Herbert?" he asked again.
"Herbert will win because Mister Sade said so. If the forward movement is the sor differs by only half a notch. then the
