Bleach: Getting Stronger Starting from Teaching at the Spiritual Arts Academy

"Teacher, we can now complete the sword-shaped wooden sword training!"

Chapter 55 Advanced Ghost Path

[Guiding Kana Mochi to complete advanced training in spiritual pressure control (completed)]

[Guiding Kotsubaki Jin'emon through basic swordsmanship training (completed)]

[Guiding Kotetsu Isane through basic swordsmanship training (completed)]

The rewards for the three training missions are waiting to be claimed!

All rewards will be claimed in July.

[Disciple Kotsubaki Jin'emon has completed his basic swordsmanship training; rewards have been distributed.]

[Reward: 1000 Universal Experience Points]

[Reward Obtained: Binding Spell Eight - Rebuke (Beginner Level)]

-

[Disciple Kotetsu Isane has completed basic swordsmanship training; rewards have been distributed.]

[Reward: 1000 Universal Experience Points]

[Reward Obtained: Binding Technique No. 21 - Crimson Smoke Release (Beginner Level)]

-

[Disciple Mochishiro Kana has completed her advanced training in spiritual pressure control; rewards have been distributed.]

[Reward: 10000 Universal Experience Points]

[Reward Obtained: Hado #88 - Flying Dragon Strike Thief Thunder Cannon (Beginner Level)]

This time, the reward includes the 88th Hado!

This is an advanced Kido technique that only Shinigami skilled in Kido can learn, but July has now learned it directly.

The "Flying Dragon Strike Thief Thunder Cannon" is a powerful offensive technique that unleashes a massive beam of light from the palm of the hand to attack enemies.

The function of "Repel" is to restrain the enemy's attack and release a spiritual energy shield to block the attack.

The purpose of "Red Smoke Release" is to release smoke to conceal one's figure or obscure one's vision.

The total general experience points gained this time amounted to 12000.

July intended to continue improving his Instant Step, but he noticed a notification on "Flying Dragon Strike Thunder Cannon".

If you want to continue upgrading the advanced Ghost Path skill "Flying Dragon Strike Thunder Cannon", you must first increase the Ghost Path level.

In order to improve his intermediate and advanced Ghost Path skills, he plans to raise his Ghost Path level.

I invested 12000 general experience points into Ghost Path, raising it from level 20 to level 39.

After taking stock of the gains, July continued to assign cultivation tasks to the disciples.

“Yongyin, after you finish practicing the basics of swordsmanship, you should start learning the Kido. The Kido and Huidao are quite related in the introductory stage, so learning them together will be twice as effective. However, you can’t neglect your swordsmanship either. You need to set aside one or two hours every day to practice swordsmanship and solidify your foundation,” July said.

The path of returning to the Dao involves a lot of medical knowledge, and it takes at least 1 to 3 years to master it. Therefore, Yongyin's basic training task for returning to the Dao has not yet been completed.

However, some of the basic knowledge of the Returning Path is related to the Ghost Path, so the two can be learned at the same time.

"is teacher!"

[Current training task added: Guiding Kotetsu Isane through basic Kido training (in progress)]

"Xiao Chun, you should continue practicing swordsmanship. Next, you will also begin training in the 'Instant Strike' sword technique," July said.

"is teacher!"

[The current training task has been added: Guide Kotsubaki Jin'emon through a sword technique training (in progress)]

After giving them some guidance on their upcoming training in July, he went to check on the training progress of Kensei Rokusha and Shinji Heiko.

After they completed their training in the "Instant Strike" sword technique, July also arranged for them to undergo advanced training in spiritual pressure control.

The two were carefully wielding their sailfish-shaped wooden swords, the bells on their bodies ringing intermittently.

Kensei Muguruma can now control the three bells so they don't ring, and he'll likely complete his training soon.

Hirako Shinji started practicing later, and so far he can only control one bell to not ring.

"Swing your sword with force! Don't let your sword swings become weak just to avoid making the bell ring. Are you planning to just tickle the enemy?"

"Yes!"

The sound of the bells suddenly became more frequent.

...

A week later, the sixth batch of students will undergo practical assessment.

Twenty-six students stood before July, and almost every one of them wore expressions of anticipation, excitement, trepidation, and nervousness.

This practical assessment will take place in the human world, and many of the students born in Soul Society have never been to the human world before.

In July, she carefully explained the precautions to the students:

"The practical assessment is to test the results of your learning over the past six years."

"For this assessment, I will serve as your mentor and take you to the real world for the assessment."

"At that time, we will work together with the official Shinigami of the Thirteenth Division stationed in the human world to complete the mission."

"During the assessment period, I will provide you with necessary guidance, but after the guidance ends, I will not interfere with your actions. You will need to rely on your own abilities to complete the assessment."

"After the practical assessment is completed, everyone's assessment results will be sent to their respective squads."

"Therefore, this practical assessment will largely determine where you go after graduation."

"I hope you will take this practical assessment seriously."

"set off!"

July, along with two official Shinigami from the 13th Division, led the students into the Transcendental Gate.

Boundary Break

"Is this the Dangai? This is my first time here too!" Yoruichi Shihouin looked around curiously.

July nodded and took the opportunity to explain the concept of the Dangai to the students: "Yes, this is the Dangai between the Soul Society and the human world. You must be careful and not fall behind."

"When you're on missions in the future, you must stick close to the Hell Butterfly. Once you get lost here, it will be very difficult to get out."

"Also, the 'Guts' scavengers will appear here every now and then. If you encounter one alone, run away as fast as you can."

"If you are caught by the 'Ku Tu' in the severance zone, you will be thrown into the time torrent, causing your body to be unable to withstand the load and die."

The two official Grim Reapers who accompanied July were not only going to the human world to carry out a mission, but also to prevent July and her group of students from being wiped out by the "Kutoku".

According to calculations, the scavenger "Kutu" will appear here soon.

However, they were quite lucky, arriving in the real world before the scavenger "Kutu" appeared.

After leaving the Dankai, we arrived at Karakura Town.

Karakura Town is a place of heavy spirits, where Hollows are more likely to appear, so Shinigami (death gods) reside here year-round.

Their practical assessment this time was also held here.

"The real world doesn't seem any different," Yoruichi Shihouin remarked, surveying her surroundings.

At this time, Karakura Town was just an ancient town.

"Because this is a place of high spiritual energy, the density of spiritual particles is high, which is why you feel it's similar to the Soul Society. But most places in the mortal world don't have such a high density of spiritual particles," July said.

Two Shinigami from the Thirteenth Division brought them to their base in the human world.

The Shinigami's base is located outside Karakura Town. As there is currently no invention that would allow Shinigami to have human bodies, Shinigami do not live in human society.

"Mr. Yamashita, Ms. Kawada, thank you for your help."

"It's alright, this is our mission too."

Chapter 56 Practical Assessment

The Shinigami's stronghold is shrouded in a protective Kido that can shield spiritual pressure.

This point in time is different from later times; in the present world, the Grim Reaper's enemies are not only Hollows.

This protective demonic path is actually used to defend against Quincy.

In this era, many Quincy still exist.

The pain inflicted on the Grim Reapers by the war launched by the Quincy King hundreds of years ago has not disappeared and continues.

Both sides suffered heavy losses in that war and had long since developed an irreconcilable hatred.

The two Grim Reapers led July and the students through the protective Ghost Path.

As Shinigami, they can pass directly through the protective Kido that guards their strongholds, while Quincy or Hollows would be blocked by the Kido.

In July, he met the third seat of the 13th Division, Yujiro Kansutani, at the base.

Yujiro Kurumatani has naturally curly, thick, and long hair that looks like an afro.

"Oh, so you're the instructor for this practical assessment?" Yujiro Kurumatani smiled broadly. "Let me explain your class's task."

“A couple of days ago, we detected an unusual spiritual pressure fluctuation in Karakura Town’s West Street, but it disappeared quickly. I checked it out and didn’t find anything unusual.”

“This…” Kurumaya Yujiro suddenly paused, realizing he hadn’t asked the other person’s name yet.

“I am Lu Qu Qiyue,” said Qiyue.

"Ah, I'm so sorry, Shikatori-sensei, I'm Kurumatani Yujiro."

Yujiro Kurumatani continued, "Then, Professor Shikatori, along with the students, followed Mr. Yamashita and Ms. Kawada to monitor the unusual activity in Karakura Town's West Street."

"Please notify me if you discover any unsolvable anomalies."

July asked, "So how long will this mission last?"

“If no abnormalities are found within a week, then we’ll report it as a malfunction of the spiritual pressure monitoring equipment.” Kurumiya Yujiro paused, then continued, “However, you will need to patrol West Street every day for the next week.”

"Understood. I'll take my leave now; I still need to explain the mission to my students." July nodded.

In July, after leaving the wooden house where Yujiro Kurumatani lived, he went directly to find the students.

The students are following two Grim Reapers on a tour of the base and being assigned dormitories.

Even Death gets tired, let alone students who aren't official Death agents; they can't be on duty 24/7.

However, living outside could lead to attacks by Hollows or Quincy, so they would return to their base to rest every day.

After arriving at the dormitory area in July, I was assigned a dormitory room.

The dormitory was small and simple, with nothing but a bed, a table and chairs.

July didn't mind the simple conditions, after all, he wasn't there for a vacation.

After assigning dormitories, July gathered the students in front of their dormitories and explained the tasks to them.

July said loudly, "I will lead you on the patrol missions for the first two days, but you will be responsible for the patrol missions for the next five days on your own."

"For this patrol mission, you will be divided into six patrol groups, and the patrol groups will rotate every four hours."

"And each group will be equipped with a Hell Butterfly for communication, and any intelligence discovered must be reported immediately."

"Let me remind you again, even if you encounter something that you can handle on your own, you still have to report it, otherwise the whole group will lose points."

"During the mission, it is strictly forbidden to harm ordinary humans without cause. If discovered, the individual will be immediately disqualified from the assessment."

"Also, during the mission, please be sure to follow the instructions of Yamashita-kun and Kawada-san, as they are also the examiners for this assessment."

These Hell Butterflies assigned to them are special; they can automatically collect intelligence on their actions. If they forget to report or do something wrong and intentionally conceal information, July will know.

July turned to the female Shinigami beside her and said, "Ms. Kawada, I'm sorry to have kept you waiting. Let's go and patrol the west side of Karakura Town first."

The two official Grim Reapers who accompanied them to the mortal world are actually in charge of this patrol mission. These two Grim Reapers will also take turns patrolling.
