Here is today’s chapter Enjoy.

Ps; I know many of you are wondering why I choose those names for Nina’s Techniques but I want you to know that I lost a bet and so I had to do it I had no choice I am sorry

~Coral Coast College, Principal's Office~

~Claus PoV~

'That was easy.' I thought.

I looked at her closely 'Now that I look at her closely she looks so familiar?...Am I thinking too much?' I thought as we headed to History.

"You must be Claus? I am Sean, nice to meet you." A young man said to me as he stood in front of me and Nina.

"Nice to meet you," I said as I shook his hand.

"What do you think you are doing Sean? Get lost." A teen with a huge build body said as he glared at Sean who only smiled wryly at him.

"Are you going to tell me that I can't talk to whomever I want Jake?" Sean said as he looked at the teen who made a sinister smile.

"He belongs to our 'Union' so fuck off!" The teen said to Sean with a cold tone while releasing his aura.

This made Sean grumble a bit as he looked at me "I am a second year if you need anything just ask for me." He said as he left.

After Sean left the teen completely retracted his aura and smiled at me "I am sorry about that, I am named Jack and I am in the second year, it's an honor to meet you." He said and I smiled at him.

"It's good to meet you as well," I said.

"Please go, your lesson it's about to start." He said and I nodded as I walked away with Nina at my side.

"What the hell was up with that?" She asked me and I shook my head "I have no idea." I said and she didn't prey anymore.

....

The moment we entered the classroom everyone looked at me with strange eyes.

"Is that him?"

"Is he really the next chairman of the Bruce Empire?"

"He doesn't look all that strong."

"I thought he was supposed to be a monstrous genius, why does he look so plain, the only thing he has is his looks and body." 

"Hmph!"

All the students started to whisper among themselves but I could hear them clearly.

I frowned 'Monstrous genius? When did I get such a title? I haven't really shown anyone my true strength.' I thought as I took a seat in the front.

'Can it be that I was found out by 'that' person? But how? Well, 'that' person was definitely very strong, not only could I not see his/her face but I could not sense any Qi from him/her either, so there was no way for me to know how strong he/she was. Then how was he/she able to fly? Can it be that their level is so high that not even I can match them?' I Thought as I felt deep annoyance in my heart.

Why did such a monster show up?

'Forget it, there is no reason to think about it, I don't believe they wanted to truly fight me or he/she would have already.' I thought as I took out my notebook and pen.

'Looks like that this world holds more mystery than I originally thought.'

The door opened and the teacher came into the room.

"Be quiet, it's time for class to start." He said and put his papers on the desk and looked at us.

"Now yesterday we spoke about the 'True World' but I haven't really said anything that would make it clear to you just how different the two worlds are." The teacher said.

"Let's start by telling you about the two different groups that control the 'True World' and it's affairs." He said and everyone looked at him.

I just gave out a sigh 'I was already told this by those two last night.' I thought.

"The two factions that are called The Union and The Ghost. Let's start by talking about the Union. Now the Union believes that everyone in the 'True World' should be kept in check and not meddle with the normal people so they won't cause chaos around the world. While the Ghost faction believes that everyone should be allowed to do what they want." He said waiting for us to ask him a question.

Nina raised her hand and he pointed at her "Which one of the two is stronger?" She asked him and he looked at us for a while.

"Well, it's like this, both factions are equal in strength but the union got more clan's on their side while The Ghost has more experts on their side not that the Union is lacking in experts since they got the strongest man on their side." He said as he tried to explain as best as he could.

'Strongest man in the world? Can it be the person I saw yesterday?' I thought.

"Is there a way to rank between people?" Nina asked and the teacher smiled.

"I was just about to explain that. First, before I start telling you about how we rank people, I have to tell you about Qi." He said as he went to the board and started to write down stuff.

"Qi or as many may call it Ki is a martial Power which can generally be divided into three categories: Hard Ki, Soft-Hard Ki, and Soft Ki. Among these, Hard Ki uses the most muscular power, followed by Soft-Hard Ki and finally Soft Ki. But no matter which Ki, in order to manifest maximum power you must have both the strength of the physical body (Yang) and a sufficient supply of smoothly circulating Qi (Yin). “Qi”, which is pronounced Ki in the Japanese arts, is the Chinese word for “energy”, and pertains to all forms of energy in the universe. In martial arts and qigong, it specifically refers to human Qi, the bioenergy or lifeforce within every cell of the human body.

Many of you might already know of this since you can find it on the internet but that does not mean you will be able to truly sense the Qi in the air around you. Only does with certain bloodlines are able to sense the Qi in the air. There are two types of Ki, external Ki, and Internal Ki.

The external physical strength manifested in specific external movements is called “External Ki”; it is a Yang manifestation of Ki. The internal Qi’s build up and circulation are called “Internal Ki”; it is the Yin manifestation of Ki. When this internal and external coordinate and support each other harmoniously and efficiently, it is called “the unification of internal and external”.

You should also understand that Ki can be again divided into Yang Ki  (commonly called “Attacking Ki”) which is aggressive and used for an attack, and Yin Ki (commonly called “Defensive Ki”) which is defensive. There is another category of Ki, which is neither for attacking nor defending. No matter which category, when the Qi is manifested into a physical form, it is called “Emitting Ki” (Fa Jin).

Let us define what Ki is and how different Ki's are classified. Theoretically, in order to activate the muscles to generate force or power, the mind must lead the Qi to the area where the muscles should be energized. For example, when you push a car, you must first generate an idea, and from this mind, an electromotive force (EMF) is generated. From this EMF the Qi is led to the muscles for energization. Through the nervous system (a highly electrically conductive system) the muscles are stimulated and contract, thereby generating action..." The teacher started to explain how one was able to use Qi and absorb it as well in more detail, this made everyone in class more focused than before as their eyes hearts beat faster.

Sigh

I looked next to me and looked at Nina 'Why do I feel such familiarity towards her? I have never felt like this before.' I thought as I played with my pen.

....

After 30 min the teacher has finished about Qi and it's basic's and moved on how we ranked people.

"Now, to answer your question about how we rank people. We first look at what kind of technique the person is training in. Techniques are put into different ranks based on their strength from SSS - F which is the weakest, depending on what you train in and how much you Ki you can generate you will be put in the ranks between SSS-F.

When you reach certain rank you will be given a title like when you reach rank S you will be a master of the 'True World' which will allow you to be a clan master of a clan, while SS will give you the title of grand master, now don't think that these ranks are easy to obtain, there are only 120 masters in the world while there are only 65 in the world that's how hard it's to get to this level." The teacher explained.

"What about rank SSS what kind of title will you get?" Nina asked.

"Well, if you ever reach that level you will be at the level of an Elder and instantly become one of the most powerful men in the world, there are only 10 people in the entire world who have reached that level." He said as he smiled.

I frowned 'Hold on? The two I killed last night said they were both Elders, does that mean that I am way above the rank of SSS?' I thought.

'Then what about 'that' person? what rank is he/she?'
