"Can you control them, Alena?" Tom showed an excited expression as he showed a smile while looking at those inert statues.

"Affirmative, Sovereign Immovable. But I would require points to do that," Alena answered.

"How much?" Tom asked in dread assuming the worst.

"500,000 points, Sovereign Immovable," Alena answered robotically.

"Eternal oblivion! I knew it!" Tom cursed as he was right in his supposition as always. He only has 55,951 points on him.

"Do you also want to become like them?" a voice sounded behind Tom.

"Like what?" Tom said as he turned to face this newcomer. It was a fat boy. He was a jolly looking kid as he smiled towards Tom nodding in understanding.

"It seems like you don't know yet. These statues are the experts our Swynton Academy produced. Their cultivation is at least Ninja Saints. Who knows, maybe, they have long reached the peak by now," the fat boy informed Tom.

"I'm Cody Blaze," the fat boy introduced himself.

"Tom Foible," Tom replied to his new colleague.

"You must adapt, Jessica. My father said the ninja world is not peaceful. Only those who have power can protect what they care about. Do it for your family." Angel said in length to her friend.

"Thank you, Angel. Help me okay?" Jessica was grateful to Angel. They just met here in the academy but have already became fast friends as they talked for hours in the two days they spent together.

"Of course. Here, take this." Angel handed her a booklet about the rules and regulations of the academy and the two friends continued chatting.

"Five days. I wait in anticipation," Tom thought as he evaluated what he heard. He also underwent rigorous training by the start of his 5th year in this world like all ninja aspirants from the clans. Their bodies and senses were definitely not comparable to those untrained and ordinary ones.

Tom finished his food and said goodbye to his newly acquired friend, Cody. He did not find it hard to reach his room as the key magically directed him towards the area for new students. He has his own personal room that indicates the care of the academy towards its pupils.

Five days quickly passed to mark the beginning of the first day in school. All the new learners were gathered inside the academy hall for the opening ceremony for the newly arrived recruits. A tall thin old man could be seen addressing them warmly at first.

"Welcome to Swynton Academy! I am Elijah Smoke, the Master of this academy. Every one of you present today might come for different reasons. Maybe you were forced by your family or perhaps the allure to become something more calls you here.

For whatever your reasons are, I care not. What I do deem important is the result of your stay with us. Your parents and guardians paid a heavy sum for your education and I totally expect each of you to do your best to learn what your mentors are going to teach you or else," the Master of the Academy said those words and after paused to unveil a bit of his killing intent towards the children.
