Chapter 87 Dead Sea Fire Dragon
At this moment, the entire silver star sea suddenly erupted in a violent tremor, and countless silver stars trembled violently. However, this anomaly only lasted for a moment before disappearing again.
But the next moment, several silver stars at different locations and altitudes suddenly burst into brilliant light, looking like a fiercely burning silver sun!
"This is... another newcomer?" Li Yuan of the Dragon Clan was slightly taken aback.
"Something's not quite the same. The newcomers always appeared with us before, why are they so much slower this time? And that tremor just now—" Godzilla Li Yuan said, as if remembering something, "It couldn't be because of my wish just now—"
Before he finished speaking, four figures quickly materialized from the ethereal into reality amidst the scattered silver starlight!
These four newly appeared Li Yuans not only looked much younger than the original Li Yuans present, but their clothing styles were also very different.
The first Li Yuan was dressed in tattered clothes, looking like a homeless vagrant.
The second Li Yuan's clothes were so outlandish that it was hard to describe them as either "trendy" or "rebellious."
The third Li Yuan was wearing a black bodysuit that covered his entire body, with only his head, hands, and feet exposed.
The fourth one, Li Yuan, wore a yellow Taoist robe underneath a green robe with a huge "crane" character embroidered on the center of his chest and abdomen.
The moment their four figures materialized, all of Li Yuan's thoughts instantly connected, sharing each other's memories, abilities, and so on.
"Simultaneous time travel!" In an instant, the four new Li Yuans, who understood why they were there, shouted almost in unison.
Li Yuan, who had integrated four different new memories, had a strange expression: "Dead Sea Fire Dragon? I was just saying it casually, and a world where you can cultivate your soul actually appeared?"
The Dead Sea Fire Dragon refers to the four newly emerged worlds to which Li Yuan belongs.
"Death" refers to the Grim Reaper, "Fire" refers to the Naruto series, and "Dragon" refers to the Dragon Balls.
Only the "sea" is special; it's not a pirate, but rather the Stone Ocean from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure!
It is common knowledge that one can cultivate their soul in the world of Bleach, so there is no need to go into details.
Stands in the JOJO world are formed from spiritual energy, and they will not disappear even if only the soul remains!
In the Naruto world, spiritual energy is a component of chakra. Even the dead can retain a large amount of chakra in their souls to maintain their fighting power.
As for the Dragon Ball world, even if the physical body turns to ashes and only the soul remains, one can still use "ki" normally.
Looking at the four newly appeared faces of Li Yuan, who were noticeably younger, the black-robed Li Yuan was equally incredulous: "Could it be that their appearance wasn't originally scheduled, but they were summoned ahead of time?"
At this moment, Death God Li Yuan had also absorbed the memories of the other Li Yuans and knew what had happened before.
He looked at Li Yuan of the Dragon Clan, a confident smile on his face: "Don't worry, leave the soul enhancement to me!"
The world of Bleach.
Li Yuan opened his eyes and looked around.
Strictly speaking, he was actually a "newly dead" person, having only been in the Soul Society for a few minutes.
Before he even figured out which area of Rukongai he was in, he was pulled into the Silver Star Sea by his cheat system.
Glug glug————
Hearing the sounds coming from his stomach and feeling the hunger that felt like he hadn't eaten all day, Li Yuan's lips curled into a smile.
-
In Soul Society, being able to feel hunger is actually a good thing.
First, let's clarify a basic fact: everything in Soul Society, whether "people" or "objects," is made up of spirit particles.
Here, "ordinary people" without spiritual power do not experience hunger and do not need to eat; they can survive simply by breathing and drinking water.
And they, naturally, did not have the qualifications to become Grim Reapers, and could only live in Rukongai for their entire lives.
Another type of "person" with spiritual power in their body consumes spiritual power, so the spiritual particles in the air and water cannot meet their needs, and they must eat to replenish it.
The fact that Li Yuan felt hungry not long after arriving in Soul Society precisely indicates that he possesses high levels of earth elemental power and excellent aptitude.
Of course, this was within his expectations.
After all, even without considering other bonuses, he already possessed more than a dozen of his own basic attributes, making his soul strength far surpass that of ordinary Rukongai residents.
Speaking of Rukongai, although it is called "street", it is actually a very large area.
Surrounding Soul Society, the abode of Death, there are eighty districts on each of the four cardinal directions: east, west, north, and south.
The smaller the number, the closer the area is to the Spirit Court, and the better the living standards and security environment.
Conversely, the higher the number, the farther the Rukongai area is from the Soul Society, and the worse the living standards and security environment.
After glancing around at the bustling crowds of smiling pedestrians and the lively atmosphere, Li Yuan felt that his luck was pretty good; he had probably been "refreshed" into a low-level Soul Street.
Sure enough, after making some inquiries, he was pleasantly surprised to find that this place was actually the West Rukongai District 1, which was called "Runlin'an".
Moreover, it is currently the annual application period for new students at the Shinigami Academy!
The Shinigami Academy is a Shinigami training institution founded by Genryusai Shigekuni Yamamoto, specifically for training new members of the Gotei 13, Kidoshu, and Onmitsukido.
For residents of Rukongai who want to enter the Soul Society and become Shinigami, the only way is usually to study at the Shinigami Academy and graduate successfully!
Or you could say that this is the only way for these vagrants in Rukongai to rise in society!
After making some inquiries, Li Yuan successfully found the registration and reception area not far from the White Gate, which was the only way to enter the Spirit Court.
Next, as long as you pass the test, you can smoothly enter the True Spiritual Arts Academy.
The entrance exam is actually quite simple; it's basically a "spiritual power test." As long as you pass it, you can enroll smoothly.
The so-called "spiritual power" is a quantitative indicator of the intensity of spiritual pressure emitted; the lower the value, the stronger it is.
Generally speaking, the most ordinary Shinigami soldier in the Gotei 13 should have a spiritual power level of at least 20.
If one wishes to become a high-ranking officer in a certain team, one's spiritual power must be between level 18 and level 6.
To become a vice-captain, one's spiritual power must reach level five or four.
As for captains, their spiritual power must be at least level three or even higher.
At this time, there were already quite a few people queuing ahead of Li Yuan, but very few of them could actually pass the test.
"Failed, next one!"
"Failed, next one!"
"Failed, next one!"
"Hmm—you're qualified. Go wait over there."
"Failed, next one!"
The testing was conducted quickly. The dozens of people who were originally ahead of Li Yuan left in no time, and Li Yuan was now first in line.
At first glance, this machine used to detect spiritual power level looks just like a weighing scale.
Simply stand on it, and the pointer on the machine will soon point to a specific number.
When no one stands on it, the pointer on the machine points exactly to "20".
Clearly, this is the standard for becoming a member of the Grim Reaper Corps.
Since it's an entrance exam, it's impossible to expect these people to have a level 20 spiritual power right from the start; otherwise, the True Central Spiritual Arts Academy wouldn't be able to recruit many new students.
In fact, as long as one can reach the level of twenty-five spiritual power, one has passed the test and can enroll.
"Go on up." The Shinigami Academy teacher, dressed in a Shinigami uniform and sitting behind the machine, glanced at Li Yuan but didn't even ask his name.
Obviously, too many people fail the test. Instead of recording them all, it's better to just record the names of those who are admitted, which saves time and effort.
despair!
Li Yuan showed no signs of anxiety and stepped directly onto the testing machine.
He's still hungry and just wants to finish the enrollment process quickly so he can have a good meal.
The pointer on the machine swung rapidly, but unlike the area after entering level 20, it pointed in the opposite direction!
20th grade —
Fifteenth grade —
Tenth grade —
Sixth grade!
The pointer on the machine kept spinning until it reached the number "6" before finally stopping!
The teacher from the True Central Academy of Spiritual Arts, who had been nonchalant just moments before, suddenly stood up from his chair, leaning forward with wide eyes as if in disbelief, his face almost touching the pointer.
He suddenly sat up straight, threw his head back, and laughed loudly, "Sixth class! It really is sixth class! Good! Hahaha!"
After laughing for a while, he remembered his business and quickly looked at Li Yuan, a smile he couldn't hide, and asked, "Excuse me, what's your name?"
After Li Yuan gave his name, the teacher immediately wrote it down on the roster, and then pointed to a shed behind him: "Li Yuan, go and rest there for a while. After the test, I will take you to the True Central Spiritual Arts Academy to report."
""
Li Yuan nodded indifferently, seemingly unconcerned, and instead asked, "Teacher, is there any food here? My stomach has been rumbling for a long time."
"Food?" The teacher paused for a moment, then quickly took out a box of snacks from under the table and handed it over. "Have something to eat first, and I'll treat you to a big meal when we get to school."
"Thank you, teacher. May I ask who you are?" Li Yuan asked politely as he accepted the snacks.
The young teacher, dressed in a Shinigami uniform, smiled and said, "My name is Sato Yuujin, you can just call me Sato-sensei."
After a day of registration and testing, Teacher Sato led five new students, including Li Yuan, through the White Gate into the Spirit Court and to the Shinigami Academy to complete their enrollment procedures.
As promised, he treated Li Yuan to a sumptuous meal in the Spirit Arts Academy's cafeteria.
If Li Yuan were eating alone, being penniless upon arriving in Soul Society, he would naturally only be able to eat the free meals that were provided, barely enough to fill his stomach.
Although students at the Shinigami Academy are provided with room and board, they will naturally have to pay extra if they want to eat well.
After the meal, Li Yuan chatted with Professor Sato for a while and learned about some of the rules of the Shinigami Academy. Then, carrying a bunch of things, he went to the dormitory assigned to him.
-
This dormitory was obviously recently vacated by graduates, and currently only Li Yuan lives there.
After arranging the bedding and other items provided by the school and changing into the white and blue boys' school uniform, Li Yuan sat cross-legged on the bed, placing the "Shallow Strike" across his lap.
This type of Zanpakuto is issued to each student at the Shinigami Academy.
However, it wasn't a gift, but rather a "temporary loan".
Only after successfully graduating from the Shinigami Academy can this Zanpakuto officially belong to an individual.
Of course, if a student can communicate with their Zanpakuto during their time at the school and inscribe the essence of their soul into the "Asauchi," thus transforming it into their own unique Zanpakuto, then the school will naturally not forcibly take it away.
"My very own Zanpakuto—"
He whispered a name in his heart, and then slowly closed his eyes.
For the next period of time, Li Yuan lived a regular life.
Among all the new students at the True Central Spiritual Arts Academy, Li Yuan's spiritual power is the strongest.
Correspondingly, he naturally received better teaching resources and more rigorous instruction from many teachers.
-
The courses offered by the Shinigami Academy can be broadly divided into two categories: academic and martial arts.
The humanities classes taught the history of the Soul Society, the various rules and etiquette of the Soul Court, and other knowledge that could be considered as cultivating one's character.
The martial arts class, on the other hand, taught "slaying fists and walking ghosts".
"Zan" refers to the way of the sword, which teaches the techniques of attacking enemies with a sword.
Boxing, or bare-handed fighting, is the technique of teaching how to attack an enemy without weapons.
Walking, or swift step, is a skill that allows for rapid, instantaneous movement of the body.
Oni, or Oni-do, is the ability to transform one's spiritual energy into various "spells," which are further divided into Hado (for attacking targets), Bakudo (for binding and imprisoning targets), and Huido (for healing targets).
Li Yuan learned all four martial arts courses at a remarkably fast pace.
The reason for this is, of course, because he already had a foundation.
First, there's Kendo. Although he hadn't specifically trained in it before, he was by no means completely ignorant of it. In addition, his strength, speed, and reaction were far superior to his classmates, so he was naturally the undisputed number one.
As for the "white-handed" style, it's even more so. Having absorbed so much martial arts experience, his advantage in this area even surpasses that of swordsmanship.
The same applies to Shunpo (Instant Step).
As a master who was proficient in skills such as light footwork, flight, and teleportation, his speed in learning the Instant Step could be described as progressing by leaps and bounds.
As for the Ghost Path, he had indeed never been exposed to it before.
However, it is clear that with his ability to draw inferences from other worlds and his "great strength that makes bricks fly," there is no reason why he would be unqualified.
It can be said that in a short period of time, he became "unbeatable among the first-year students"!
Shunpo and Kido are relatively easy to learn; you can practice them on your own.
However, improving swordsmanship and hand-to-hand combat skills inevitably requires a lot of sparring.
Therefore, in addition to the teacher's guidance, Li Yuan quickly gained the "privilege" of sparring with older students!
