The only player in the world of Bleach.

Soi Fon rolled her eyes slightly but didn't reply.

She simply turned her back and remained silent for a while before suddenly speaking.

Have you decided where you'll go after graduation?

"...?"

Do leaders interrogate applicants about their choices?

Not yet.

"Then come to the Second Division... no, join the Execution Army, the Covert Mobile Force."

This has been mentioned before. In nature, it is similar to the Gotei 13, and they are basically "equivalent" employment units.

The only problem was that the work he did was somewhat shady – mostly handling things in secret, and he often had dealings with nobles.

Of course, these are just official statements.

The term "practical" is entirely different from the internal rhetoric.

The Second Division's private army...

The Shihouin family oversees a considerable number of people, and this organizational structure, which has been passed down for a long time and is now fixed, is also part of this great noble family.

Although it may sound a bit impolite, for most people, joining Xingjun is essentially the same as becoming part of the Shihōin family's private army.

Although I no longer eat with the members of the Gotei 13, being able to eat Old Qian's food is still a great thing.

Therefore, such organizations are actually quite popular within the spiritual arts academy.

Yusuke Matsushita did not answer immediately; he simply looked at Soi Fon's retreating figure and pondered for a moment.

Are there any special rewards for joining?

"Huh?! What could you possibly be unhappy about working under Yoruichi?"

"If I join the Fifth Division, Aizen-sensei promised me a Seat Officer position."

That's true.

During their previous casual conversation, Aizen Sousuke had mentioned that someone like Matsushita Yusuke, who could use a Zanpakuto and perform a basic release, was already close to meeting the threshold of becoming a seated officer.

You can't get a spot too high up in the rankings because you need reputation and recommendations within the team.

Those slightly further back are basically not a problem.

It was only after hearing this that Yusuke Matsushita gained a general understanding of the overall assessment.

This system isn't stupid...

The evaluations given are basically on par with Aizen's, which is enough to demonstrate its high value.

If their strength improves in the future, then comparing and measuring them according to this evaluation should not be a problem.

Now, let's get back to the main topic.

Upon hearing this, Soi Fon's expression clearly showed her disgust.

tsk...

"Why is your argument so mercenary?! Isn't serving Lord Yoruichi enough?"

To be honest, I'm not really interested in this dark-skinned woman, Yusuke Matsushita.

"It's alright... I just wanted to see what the other squads were like, to get more information... I don't have any specific ambitions right now."

"Hmph, what an unambitious fellow!"

"So, do you want me to join Xingjun?"

Soi Fon rolled her eyes and didn't say anything.

"You should be going to class soon... Hurry up, I'll clean up the rest."

After glancing at the rustling bamboo in the courtyard, Matsushita Yusuke quickly calculated the time.

"Then I'll go first, see you later."

Watching Yusuke Matsushita's departing figure, Soi Fon lowered her left hand and gently rubbed the comb bag hanging from her waist.

"Stupid thing..."

With the opening ceremony over, Yusuke Matsushita officially became a second-year student.

Because he had previously communicated with Tosen, Matsushita Yusuke naturally paid attention to some important points, so he acted quite efficiently.

Register for courses, collect textbooks and various equipment... find the corresponding classroom, prepare to sign in, etc.

After finishing all these tasks, it was almost noon.

After a quick nutritional boost, Matsushita Yusuke hurriedly arrived at the lecture hall and took his place, eagerly awaiting the first class of the afternoon.

Class time.

As the bell rang, a gentle-looking man dressed in a Shinigami uniform pushed open the door and entered.

He strode to the podium and expertly adjusted the microphone in front of him. After confirming everything was working correctly, a gentle smile appeared on his face, and he spoke softly.

"Good afternoon, everyone. Although there are many familiar faces... considering this is the first class of the year, there should also be some new students present."

and so.

"Although it might be a hassle, please allow me to introduce myself. I am... Aizen Sousuke, the lieutenant of the Fifth Division."

The Shinigami Academy offers a wide range of courses.

However, compared to some more important content, simpler elective courses are usually squeezed out by main courses and then moved to other class hours.

That's why Aizen Sousuke's calligraphy lessons were previously scheduled for the evening, but this year is different.

It's probably because they're so popular.

To be able to schedule it for the first class period in the afternoon, Aizen... is terrifying!

"Well then, let me briefly outline the content of this course. Students who are not interested or whose expectations are not met should register with the Academic Affairs Office to make changes before the course starts next week."

During Aizen's statement, that familiar notification bar came into view again.

[Mission: Learn calligraphy techniques from Aizen Sousuke]

Come on~

After several months, the hardworking gold miners have returned to their posts.

We need to keep busy this year too... for the sake of data growth!

[Introduction: ...]

The content was largely the same as before, so Matsushita Yusuke didn't pay much attention. However, this time the reward was slightly unexpected…

[Spiritual Pressure Level +1, Kido +2, Kido-type Zanpakuto +1]

Wow, this is amazing, guys! The rewards are really high this time.

Given the element of randomness involved, this is essentially equivalent to finding a big red flower in a travel bag or a diamond in a bird's nest.

Yusuke Matsushita chuckled and made a rubbing motion like a fly.

Gaining experience is one aspect.

Most importantly... thanks to this reward, Matsushita Yusuke's Kido will also be able to break through the 30 mark, becoming the first project in the entire data to reach this level.

I don't know what special effects it will have, but it's definitely something to look forward to.

As for the course content...

Although there are no major differences in direction compared to last year, the content of Aizen's course actually changes every year.

This academic year, he seems to want to teach other writing techniques, but Matsushita Yusuke already has all the life skills he needs in these areas, so there's not much point in learning them.

Where's the reward? Hurry up and bring it out!
