Let $C_i \equiv x^2 + y^2 = i^2$ for $i = 1, 2, 3$ be three circles. There are $4i$ points on the circumference of each circle $C_i$. If no three of all the points on the three circles are collinear,then the number of triangles that can be formed using these points whose circumcentre does not lie on the origin is:
