Bleach: I'm picking up attributes in Seireitei

"Don't move! What do you think you're doing?!"

The Grim Reaper saw Wang Xun take a few steps and instinctively gripped the hilt of his knife.

Wang Xun raised his hands to indicate that he had no other thoughts.

He was just picking up his own spoils.

After the fierce battle, Hasegawa had a lot of pieces on him.

Wang Xun picked up most of the fragments and stopped in his tracks, noticing the tense expression on the Grim Reaper teacher's face.

[Gained 22 Spirit Power Fragment, +220 Spirit Might Experience]

[Gain 6 Kendo Insights, +60 Kendo Experience]

[Gained 4 Flash Step Tips, Flash Step Experience Points +40]

[Gain 1 Ghost Path Insights, Ghost Path Experience Points +10]

Upon seeing the system subtitles, Wang Xun understood.

Apart from having higher spiritual pressure, Hasegawa wasn't much stronger than him in other aspects.

After this real-world test, Wang Xun also gained a clear understanding of his current strength.

Aside from the Shikai of his Zanpakuto, his overall strength is already comparable to that of a regular high-ranking official.

They might be very strong for students of the Spirit Arts Academy, but they wouldn't even rank among the top in this vast Seireitei.

"By the way, teacher, my classmates left first. Are they safe now? Have you seen a small girl named Ise Nanao?"

"Hmm? I didn't notice that, but don't worry, the students have all gathered at the assembly point, except for one named Wang Xun... What's your name?"

"My name is Wang Xun."

"oh."

Wang Xun and the Grim Reaper guarding him stood there, staring at each other.

Before long, a commotion arose in the distance.

Soon after, several well-prepared Death Gods arrived at the scene.

The leader had long blond hair and a cold gaze as he surveyed his surroundings.

"Where's Hasegawa?"

The Grim Reaper beside Wang Xun instantly stood up straight and excitedly reported to him.

"Report to Captain Hirako! Hasegawa Rokusuke has headed in the 1 o'clock direction, and the other supervising Shinigami who accompanied him have already given chase."

"Alright, you can take this student back now. Leave a few of you to patrol the area."

After assigning several Shinigami to stay behind and handle the scene, Shinji Hirako disappeared from the spot.

Led by the others, Wang Xun finally returned to Soul Society through the interdimensional gate.

When the group emerged from the interdimensional gate, the scene was quite empty.

Aside from a few Grim Reapers stationed there, there was only Ise Nanao, Harada Heita, and the few third-generation recruits they were mentoring.

The first thing Qi Xu noticed when she saw Wang Xun come out was the tattered uniform of the Spirit Arts Academy on Wang Xun's body.

Qi Xu stepped forward and grabbed Wang Xun's arm.

"You're injured? What happened?"

Seeing Qixu's worried and somewhat agitated expression, Wang Xun smiled and waved his hand.

"They're just superficial injuries. If I had come back a little later, they would have almost healed."

At that moment, a Shinigami from the Fifth Division reached out and separated Wang Xun and Nanao.

"A major accident occurred during this soul burial internship, but fortunately there were no casualties."

"As witnesses at the scene, you need to cooperate with us in conducting some investigations."

"This student is injured, although it's not serious, but we still need to take him to the Fourth Division for a check-up."

"You few, you should head to the Fifth Division first."

Qi Xu pursed her lips upon hearing this.

"Could I go with him to the Fourth Division first...?"

"Alright, Nanao. Just listen to what this Grim Reaper has to say. Let's not cause him any trouble."

Before the Grim Reaper could speak, Wang Xun offered his advice.

The leader of the Grim Reapers looked at Wang Xun with approval upon hearing his words.

A sensible young man.

"Let's go."

At his signal, Wang Xun and the others separated and, led by two members of the Fifth Division, headed towards the Fourth Division.

This incident involves the defection of a senior officer of the Fifth Division, which is nothing short of a scandal for the Fifth Division.

This is also why the captain of the Fifth Division personally took action and acted so swiftly.

Before the facts are clear, Wang Xun, the only eyewitness to the incident, will obviously be under strict surveillance until the matter is concluded.

Wang Xun couldn't help but ponder this as he walked.

I just don't know what Aizen is doing right now.

If he orchestrated all of this, why would he need a high-ranking official like himself to take charge?

Could it be... a scapegoat?

"By the way, I saw Captain Hirako earlier, but I didn't see Vice-Captain Aizen. Is he here today too?"

Upon hearing Wang Xun's voice, the two Grim Reapers beside him exchanged glances.

Why are you asking this?

"Just out of curiosity."

One of them thought for a moment and realized that it wasn't something worth hiding.

"Lieutenant Aizen received another rescue mission from the human world and had already been dispatched."

Wang Xun nodded upon hearing this. There was no need to think about it; Aizen was definitely watching from the side just now.

It's still watertight.

A moment later, the group arrived at the Fourth Division.

After receiving basic treatment at the Fourth Division, Wang Xun was placed in a separate room within the Fourth Division.

Outside the door, the two Shinigami from the Fifth Division remained standing.

A day passed quietly.

The sudden Hollow attack during the Soul Burial training in the present world, and the defection of Hasegawa, the sixth seat, were like a stone thrown into a calm lake, stirring up ripples in the Gotei 13.

However, these two matters did not spread within the Shinigami Academy, and very few people knew about them.

The Fifth Division issued a gag order to Ise Nanao, Harada Heita, and others who knew the inside story.

This matter should not be publicized indiscriminately before an official announcement.

Therefore, the students from the Spiritual Arts Academy who rushed back from their in-depth practice of soul burial in the present world were unaware of what had actually happened.

Only the fact that the Great Hollow attacked the students was known to a small number of people within a limited circle.

However, none of this had anything to do with Wang Xun.

He was lying comfortably on the Fourth Division's medical bed, with Ise Nanao peeling an apple with a knife beside him.

After more than half a day of questioning, Qi Xu and the others were able to return to the Spirit Arts Academy and move around freely.

Nanao immediately went to the Fourth Division and found the room where Wang Xun was.

The two guards at the gate, upon seeing that it was Ise Nanao who had arrived, discussed the matter privately.

After instructing Wang Xun not to reveal Hasegawa's situation, Nanao was allowed to visit.

However, their attention remained firmly focused on the room.

As Qi Xu stared at Wang Xun, who looked relaxed, her slightly uneasy heart gradually calmed down.

"You're not hurt, so why do you need me to peel an apple for you?"

"Your peel is sweeter."

Seeing Wang Xun's incredibly serious expression, Qi Xu was speechless, but she still carefully carved one for him.

"Consider it... a reward for you."

After peeling it, she gently brought it to Wang Xun's lips.

"Ah~"

"Aww."

Wang Xun grabbed it and, because he opened his mouth too wide, his lips accidentally touched Qi Xu's fingers.

Qi Xu felt as if she had been electrocuted, and she quickly pulled her fingertips back, her face turning bright red.

A moment later, she rubbed against Wang Xun.

"Nausea..."

Wang Xun: ?
