First Class

"How much longer…?" Brian mumbled

Even though he had nothing to measure time while sitting in the bubble but he could still guess that it had been more than one month since he was alone. He had tried nearly everything in this bubble.

He exercised every now and then, he even tried to meditate and direct the surrounding energy into his body but strangely he couldn't use the cultivation manual that he once had. It seemed like the composition of energy was very different making the cultivation manual seem like trash.

It was more like trying to suck up a large rock using a straw.

While he had nothing to do, he even tried to touch the boobs of the sleeping women to check if he could wake them up.

But all was for nothing. There was a certain force blocking Brian from touching those people.

***

A few more days later,

Brian continued to search in the book while testing his knowledge in the never-ending universe.

Suddenly,

Shiva who was stable as rock opened his eyes. His face was still calm without any changes.

Brian didn't notice any change and continued to mumble by himself as he looked at another star.

"Yellowish red colour, whitish fluctuations, 5 mineral stars in vicinity, Seemingly large, asteroid belt, not entirely round, giving mysterious feeling to the viewer…

It should be a non-life-giving planet with 20% energy-giving materials. Should take another 10000 revolutions to start giving birth to life" Brian noted down his observations.

Just when he was proceeding to open the book and recheck his analysis. He noticed Lord Shiva looking at him.

"Greeting… Lord Shiva" Brian stumbled

After all, he still remembered the aura of Nandi. He still didn't know how to address a god.

"We are about to reach, embrace yourself" Shiva spoke in his ethereal tone again. He didn't mind the way Brian addressed him. After all who would care how an ant addresses him.

A bright smile finally bloomed on Brian's face. He had been too bored being alone in this past month or two.

Moreover, the excitement to see Genesis Plane was over the top. He was over-energetic. He stopped all his analysis and just lay down on the bubble. He wanted to enjoy this moment of life before he stepped into a world of total competition. He wanted a little moment of peace and satisfaction.

Earlier he had asked Lord Shiva about his parents and got to know that they are also with a God responsible for their area and will enter the Genesis Plane to give the entrance test as well so he wasn't really worried about them.

***

After an hour or so

A large Black Hole finally came in Brian's vision

It was a large, extremely large black ball. It was supposedly absorbing another star to its core making a blue tornado-type light appear on its surface.

It was an existence that didn't even leave light or sound and directly absorbed it.

Brian's eyes were bulging. They appeared as if they could burst if widened even a millimeter larger.

This wasn't due to the majestic black hole in front of him, But it was due to the similar scene he experienced before.

Before his last fight on [Selection Area,] Brian had suddenly appeared in a dark space that had sealed all his senses. The scene was totally similar to the black hole rotating in front of him.

Before he could exclaim, the speed of Nandi burst and they entered the black hole. Brian directly passed out with an expression of astonishment on his face.

"tring tring"

"Wake Up Creatures"

"tring tring"

"Wake Up Creatures"

A cute voice that resembled a bird's chirp fell into Brian's ears.

It was only after this, that he was finally awakened from his nightmare.

Earlier when he entered the black hole on the outside he fell unconscious but actually, his consciousness was dragged into a similar scene.

A black hole in front of him threatening to suck everything in existence. Brian was naturally scared and didn't have any clue about what to do.

An unknown amount of time later, a point-sized light having the power to illuminate everything appeared in the same scene.

"Singularity!!"

Brian finally breathed a sigh of relief. He knew exactly what that point-sized light was.

It had been clearly written that this was termed as 'Singularity'. As the name suggests there is only one such thing present in every sentient Creature. It can be termed as the foundation of strength. If it is broken in any case then there is nobody in this entire world that can treat it. It is also the core of the star that is about to be built later.

When singularity made its appearance, a bright light illuminated the entire space making Brian regain his 5 senses.

"WHAT!!"

"How can this be?" Brian was horrified

The thing which felt like a black hole to him was single point sized object having the power to absorb everything.

That wasn't the issue

The issue was that it exactly resembled the 'Singularity' but was pitch black.

*Suck*

The newly formed singularity had started to move towards the pitch-black one as if submitting to that thing.

Brian was dumbstruck. He hoped to have a goldenfinger like anyone else but that 'thing' resembled more of a threat than a cheat.

"Calm down Brian. This is not the time to be shocked" He mumbled and this time a voice came out of his mouth

According to the instructions, Singularity should have started spinning by itself. But it was rather that the pitch-black point-sized object had already started spinning and also threatened to suck up and merge singularity with its own.

Brian didn't have time to think so he closed his eyes and imagined using the newly formed force and spinning the singularity manually.

He knew that things were out of his control and could only try to make things right.

Just when he tried to use the 'force', Singularity started trembling. It started opposing the pitch-black point while trying hard to spin.

*swish*

Two invisible forces started acting on the Singularity in opposite directions.

One was the attracting force of the pitch-black singularity-type object and the other one was the mysterious force controlled by Brian.

Controlling a weird force is a new feeling for Brian, so he was losing the tug of war at first.

Only after getting the hang of controlling that force, Brian was able to offset the attraction force of the seemingly small black hole.

***

That stalemate lasted for only a few moments before the actual singularity finally was free and started spinning on its own.

Brian quickly used his force to separate the two of them. Now that they were in opposition to each other, he didn't have to use his force to offset the pitch-black singularity type thing and could easily support singularity and give it an upper hand.

Back to reality.

Before Brian could stabilize the situation on his side, he was called out.

"Ouu hou" A roar came in Brian's ears making him raise his guard

Brian turned his head to look around and find Creatures.

A lot of them. Every kind of creatures that Brian felt were impossible to exist.

Elf, Darkled, Orcs, Centaurs, Griffins, Birdman, Kobolds, Dwarfs, Trolls, Goblins, Mermaids, Mermen, Angels, Nymphs, Barbarians, Giants, and unidentifiable ones as well.

But this wasn't the reason for everyone's heartfelt appreciation.

A lady was standing on a platform floating above them.

That lady had wings on her back and an ornament on her forehead resembling a bird. There was also a small blue bird on her shoulder giving a strangely dangerous feeling.

"I welcome every creature to Genesis Plane. We unfortunately had to cancel your [Selections] due to an invasion by another plane. So, we have decided to let you experience some teaching before a formal entrance exam for all academies on Genesis Plane takes place.

I will tell you about the academies and the weird scene you just experienced later. But firstly,

My name is Lyla and I am the teacher responsible to prepare you for your entrance exams" Lyla said with an indifferent face.

Brian knew the reason for her indifference and started clapping as if to appreciate her amazing speech.

*clap* *clap*

He knew his identity very well and directly used this opportunity to grab a little bit of attention.

Lyla looked at his behavior with a strange look in her eyes

"WHAT BULSHIT!! We were promised immortality when we entered the [Selection Area] and now you are telling me to participate in some shitty academy exam. Who are we? Kids" A short-tempered orc directly burst out and let out every cuss word he knew.

"I agree with you brother Orc, I Umom is against this shitty exam. I demand to be sent back to my earlier planet." A giant thumped his chest loudly as if showing his strength even without 'help's'

The indifferent look returned to Lyla's eyes as if this was the expected reaction that everyone should have.

"Who all wants to go back to their homes?" Lyla spoke in a soft yet questioning voice.

"Me"

"I"

"Who wants to live in this so-called Genesis Plane. Me too"

"We as well"

"I"

"I and my family request to be sent back"

…

A loud chorus shouted at Lyla to be sent back home

The numerous voices made Brian realize that the number of people present in this batch is more than what he expected

"Ok, then you shall be sent back." Lyla spoke with a slightly curled-up smile on her face

*flash*

Every Creature who shouted directly disappeared with a wave of her hand

"Ohh, 1.3 million are still remaining. I thought I will have to teach 1 million students in the worst case but seems like you guys are much more resilient than the last batch." Lyla spoke with herself as if showing off the forgetful traits of birds.

"Let us start with the first lesson-

The white-colored spot you just saw before waking up is called 'Singularity'. It will be the core of the first star that you form as well as the center of the star system and galaxy which will be formed by you…"
