"R2..."

"R3..."

"R4...that's it. This is our classroom. Now, I am warning you six beforehand, do not stand out in any way. We are here in this academy only to find a way to get out of this world. Sai, you are the most likely one out of all of us to deviate from our actual goal."

"Roger that Leo." Sai saluted in a childish manner with a smirk on his face before entering the classroom.

"Let's go in." Leo led the other five into the classroom following Sai and found some free seats here and there while the other students occupied most of the classroom. The classroom was like any other classroom back on earth with a blackboard, chairs and tables with huge windows on the other side of the wall.

"I was planning to switch schools on earth anyway, but not this kind of switch." Leo sighed as he sat down on an empty chair somewhere in the middle.

It didn't take much time for the classroom to be filled. The seven split into different directions except for Erina and Aiko who sat next to each other under Leo's words. It was pretty obvious to the other six that Leo wanted Aiko to keep an eye out on Erina so that she doesn't do anything stupid.

"Good Morning class." A vibrant male voice resounded in the classroom as a man with a very built body entered the room.

"My name is Miller. And I am going to be your homeroom teacher."

"First of all, we are going to arrange the seating, before jumping into anything."

"Starting with this row, approach 'this' and send your Qi into it." Miller held out something similar to a crystal ball which was perfectly transparent in nature.

The students approached one after another sending their Qi into it. That was when Leo noticed something different. Initially, Leo thought that everyone had different colour Qi's after seeing Riana having white Qi and he was right in his assumption. He thought their group had the same colour Qi only because of their origin, the Earth and it had something to do with their Qi. but out of the 60 or so students, he did not see anyone else having a golden Qi. The students Qi were blue, red, green, purple and so on, but none had a golden coloured Qi.

Soon came Ian's turn but just before he was going to explain the situation to Miller from his seat, he was signalled to approach him. Ian approached Miller slowly looking confused and stood before him.

"Just put your hand on the crystal, you don't need to transfer any Qi." Miller whispered in a slow voice which was inaudible to the rest of the students.

"And next." Ian returned to his seat and glanced at Leo with a blank face, but that was enough for Leo to understand that Miller knew the seven's special status.

"Okay, now that everyone is done with it, look at this crystal. It is a mixture of different Qi's. Yes?" Miller lifted the crystal to a height so that all the students could see it.

Leo's eye's shone as his brain ran, trying to conclude from the facts he just observed. The crystal had a near golden colour which was similar to the colour of the seven's Qi.

"Holy cow, I hope Sai doesn't get what that means. God, please, make sure Sai is dumb enough not to get it." Leo held his breath as he turned towards Sai to see if his face had any drastic differences.

"I guess God isn't very merciful towards me. Now I got to listen to his passionate speech." Leo exhaled a long breath as he closed his eyes after seeing Sai's eyes shine like a kid who was opening his birthday gift.

"Now, this is the original Qi. It is called the 'Origin Qi', the actual form of the Qi that flows within all of us."

"This is lesson 101 in your journey towards becoming an elementor. The origin Qi can generate any Qi, fire Qi, water Qi, etc. Usually, a person can only extract one to three different Qi's from the origin Qi from his powerhouse. In very rare cases do we see a person drawing more than three Qi's out of the powerhouse." The entire class, even the happy go girl Erina was deeply concentrating on the lecture and it only goes to show how interested the students were in learning the ways of Qi.

"It has one more name to it. Just like any extracted Qi from the Origin Qi has different properties and behaviours, even the Origin Qi has a unique behaviour. Yes, I agree that I myself said that no one ever has used more than four extracts of the Origin Qi, but I never said that none ever used the Origin Qi as a single Qi."

"The ancient ones." A student in the first bench answered in a low voice as he deeply immersed himself into the lecture.
