Kapitel 16: Chapter 8 Lesson 1 (Part 1)_1
"Who allowed you to sit like this? All of you, stand up now." Xia Tian roared in anger. All the students hurriedly stood up. Originally, the students from the two departments were seated alternately without any distinct order. Their uniforms were of different colors, as seen from the podium, naturally alternating between red and blue.
"Bing Fire students, move to the right side. Ding Fire students, go to the left. Already know about pairings at such a young age, huh? Right now, immediately, I will count to five. Anyone who hasn't taken their seat by then can roll out of here."
No one dared to slow down amidst Xia Tian's angry shouts. The sixty-one students immediately scrambled, quickly changing seats. Ji Dong paid special attention to the female teacher who was obviously from the Ding Fire department. Although Xia Tian's teaching method was rather crude, she appeared unphased, evidently accustomed to it.
"We will start roll call now. When your name is called, stand up, and shout 'here.' Bing Fire department, Carl."
"Present------" Carl suddenly stood up from the back row, yelling out loudly, drawing the attention of all the students.
Xia Tian nodded in satisfaction, "That's how it should be, everyone concentrate."
Soon, Xia Tian finished calling out the names of the thirty Bing Fire students from the front, "Finally, Ji Dong."
"Present." Ji Dong stood up from the front row. Even though his voice wasn't as loud as Carl's, he displayed a determination missing in his peers.
As soon as Ji Dong stood up, both Xia Tian and the female teacher's gaze fell on him. "You're Ji Dong?" Xia Tian asked with a hint of surprise.
"Yes." Ji Dong's answer was straightforward and firm.
Xia Tian nodded, "Sit down." Ji Dong could tell, Xia Tian's expression was a bit strange after knowing his name. He didn't need to guess to understand that it certainly had something to do with his Yin-Yang balanced attribute.
"My name is Xia Tian, I will be in charge of the first-year students from the Bing Fire department. If you don't work hard, don't blame me for being ruthless and kicking you out, saving your parents' hard-earned money from being wasted here. Next, Teacher Qiu Tian of the Ding Fire department will call roll."
Ji Dong nearly laughed to himself. They certainly had unique names, Xia Tian (Summer), and Qiu Tian (Autumn). The combination did seem quite in sync. He wondered if there were teachers named Chun Tian (Spring) and Dong Tian (Winter) in the academy.
"Ji Dong." The first name Qiu Tian called out was his.
"Present." Ji Dong, who had just sat down, had to stand up again. Except for Carl and Bi Su, all the other students thought they had heard it wrong and stared at him with their mouths agape.
Qiu Tian smiled softly, her smile was as beautiful as her voice, "There's no need to be surprised, everyone. Ji Dong is a special case. His cultivation method will also be different from all of you. It's a new attempt by the academy. Okay, you can sit down. Next one, Bi Su."
"Present." Bi Su sprang up quickly, his eyes lit up as he looked at Qiu Tian, "Hello, Sister Qiu Tian."
"Teacher Qiu Tian," she corrected him with a giggle.
Just as Bi Su was about to say something, he caught Xia Tian's murderous glare and quickly sat back down. Carl, who was sitting on the right side, smacked his lips and said in a low voice, "I'm kinda envious of you guys in the Ding Fire department now."
The roll call process was soon over. Ji Dong ignored the unusual looks from the surrounding students. Although Teacher Qiu Tian didn't specify, anyone with a little knowledge about Yin Yang Magicians would understand that his dual cultivation was a special case, having a Yin-Yang balanced physique. Undoubtedly, he was seen as top tier trash. Of course, most people were just curious, after all, having a Yin-Yang balanced physique was even rarer than a genius with a 9:1 ratio.
After the roll call, the official class began. Xia Tian turned around and wrote five phrases on the blackboard, namely:
East Jia Yi Wood.
South Bing Ding Fire.
Center Wu Ji Earth.
West Geng Xin Metal.
North Ren Gui Water.
After writing these, he turned back around. Teacher Qiu Tian naturally stepped aside. Xia Tian's eyes swept over the students, "Today is your first class in Li Fire Academy, a joint class for the two departments. Can anyone tell me the meaning of the five phrases I've written on the board?"
Whether it was due to Xia Tian's intimidating demeanor or some other reason, most students chose to adopt a wait-and-see attitude.
Ji Dong, sitting at the front raised his hand without hesitation. Since he had decided to put in effort, he needed to acquire enough knowledge. The thirty-two times effort also required a direction.
Xia Tian nodded at Ji Dong, "Okay, you may speak."
Ji Dong stood up and said, "The phrases you wrote represent the five positions of East, South, West, North, and Center, and the Five Elements of Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, Water. As well as the Ten Heavenly Stems Jia, Yi, Bing, Ding, Wu, Ji, Geng, Xin, Ren Gui. By the literal meaning, taking our Fire attribute for example, South belongs to Fire, Bing and Ding in the Heavenly Stems also belong to Fire. Although they are both Fire, they are divided into Bing Fire and Ding Fire according to Yin and Yang. So, South Bing Ding Fire can also be called South Yang Yin Fire. Bing and Ding are just two different names. By extension, the rest of the three elements should have a similar meaning. Among the Ten Heavenly Stems, odd numbers represent Yang attributes, and even numbers represent Yin attributes. For example, in Jia Yi Wood, Jia Wood should be Yang Wood and Yi Wood should be Yin Wood."
Xia Tian nodded approvingly, "Very good. Sit down."
Ji Dong's explanation was a result of his knowledge about Yin and Yang from his past life, some information about Yin Yang Magicians he heard from Yang Bingtian, and the five phrases Xia Tian wrote on the board.
Xia Tian said, "What Ji Dong said is correct. Our Five Elements Continent is named for the Five Elements: Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal, and Water as well as their Yin and Yang properties. After dividing each into Yin and Yang, they become ten elements: Yang Wood, Yin Wood, Yang Fire, Yin Fire, Yang Earth, Yin Earth, Yang Metal, Yin Metal, Yang Water, and Yin Water. These correspond to the ten departments of our Yin Yang Magicians."
Pausing for a bit, he then wrote another twenty characters on the blackboard.
"The attributes of all ten departments of Yin Yang Magicians are these. The Ten Heavenly Stems correspond to the Five Elements and Yin Yang. As Ji Dong has already explained it very clearly. Jia Yi belongs to Wood, which corresponds to Yang Wood and Yin Wood. Bing Ding belongs to Fire, representing Yang Fire and Yin Fire. By bringing the Ten Heavenly Stems into the classification of our Yin Yang Magicians, we get the real names: The Jia Wood series, Yi Wood series, Bing Fire series, Ding Fire series, Wu Earth series, Ji Earth series, Geng Gold series, Xin Gold series, Ren Water series, and Gui Water series."
