After this they all were commoved, Sabrina even let a few tears flow. But this continued only for a short of time. Then Noah imparted them the Duplication technique and they began to practice with it.
At first it was very difficult to create a clone of yours and that looked exactly the same as you, then for this you needed a lot of concentration and imagination. The soul power could not be missed.
The first duplication was all deformed and looked shabby and not real, but with practice it got only better.
The first one to achieve to make a duplication successfully was Noah, because he had the best concentration and imagination power from all of them. He trained in the forest for a year to make possible to cast spells without any spell text and he was very successful. The others had a good imagination, but it was not as trained as Noahs.
"Hello, who are you?" Said Noah to his clone, he wanted to try it at first.
"I am Noah, and you?" replied the clone.
"I am Noah too; can you tell me how old you are?" Asked Noah again.
"I am 17 years old." Replied the clone.
"Are you the true Noah?" Asked Noah this time to test the intelligence of the clone.
"Of course, do you think I am a clone or what?" replied the clone naturally and laughing.
Noah nodded and then tested the clone a few time more, a time later, circa 10 minutes, the clone vanished.
"It looks like without a mana stone; the clone can only endure for 10 minutes." He told himself and then he went to the storage of the high mana stones and took five stones out. Every stone was to fuse it with a clone. With this stones, the clones could endure for more than a month, even a few months. Then the energy contained was incredible high and for a clone that did nothing, was sufficient to survive for a few months.
After he returned, he found out that everyone succeeds creating a duplicate of themselves, so he went straight to the duplication and with a high mana stone in his hand, he crushed the stone inside their chests.
Suddenly the duplication that did not look as lively, became more real. Their bodies could be touched, and they behave like living humans.
"Wow, he feels like me and the link between us is stronger and I feel like he behaves exactly like me." Said Max excited, then he was a big fan of the clone and duplication methods and he was very interested on how they worked. "I can feel that the duplication knows what to say and what not, like me. Can someone ask a question that I would never reply with the truth?"
"How big is your ding?" Asked David as he found a good opportunity.
The clone hardly smiled, like if he did not like the question and replied: "I am sure bigger than yours. For a man to be interested about the size of the ding of another man is a shame."
Max was fascinated with the answer and David felt really ashamed. He did not expect that the clone would answer so hard.
"I think everything is ready, do you want to start now with the closed cultivation or not?" Asked Noah seriously, this matter was not an easy one. Then he knew that reclused cultivation could go for days, weeks, months, or years. Everything was possible.
"But letting the duplications alone is a little too risky, what if the people became suspicious?" Asked Principal Black.
"Do not worry, only you are the one who would stay here, I will go back to the academy. As you know normal cultivation is useless for me. I also need to learn new things from the library. My clone will stay here if you need anything you can tell my duplication and I will know it directly." Said Noah.
"Are you sure? Do you really not need to stay here?" Asked Sabrina.
"Yes, I am sure."
After this Noah left the hall with the duplication. Of course, he said good bye to his friends, because he knew that they would stay there for a long time. A very long time longer than they ever were separated till now. Because they knew that they had only circa 50 years before the invasion from the outsiders. So, they had to cultivate all they could to become stronger as fast as possible.
When Noah left the hall, it was already night, and nobody was to see in the near. Noah then went to the principal's office, where he had now full access and slept there in the desk of principal Black. The duplication did not need any sleep and they stayed there the whole night without doing anything.
-------
The next morning Noah woke up and he looked around and said to himself: "it is time to level up. I waited a long time and now it is time to level up my strength.

"System, put all the EXP in both cultivation ways."
Directly after he said that, the world in front of him began to move and he felt dizzy and he lost any concentration. He felt like something was happening to his body and mana core, but he could not tell what, then he could not think clear to see what was happening.
The mana in the office of the and the academy began to move like crazy and was very chaotic. Even as Principal Black had her breakthrough to the 7th Star, it was not as chaotic.
Noah did not know what was happening, and after that he passed out.
