Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, Xia Yan has been in the Maou Spiritual Academy for eleven months.
From the spring in March to the end of January of the next year, a semester just ends.
The weather has warmed up in late January, but it's still a bit chilly outside.
Xia Yan stayed in the bedroom, dragging his chin and looking out the window, looking a little depressed.
A school year test was held not long ago, and Xia Yan ranked first in the grade in cultural subjects, and also excelled in kendo and white fighting.
In the subsequent test of spiritual pressure, Xia Yan was directly tested to have fifth-level spiritual pressure. This was the result of Xia Yan's year of training. With spiritual food supplement consumption, day and night training, and super talent, Xia Yan was naturally promoted. Fifth level spiritual pressure.
This is far beyond the requirements for fourth grade, so this morning the teacher called me to the office and asked if I would like to enter fourth grade.
Junior Kidō and Shunpo will be taught in the fourth grade, and the requirements for Junior Kidō and Shunpo are fourth-level spiritual pressure.
Renji Abarai met the requirements for reiatsu, but his academic performance was too weak and he was not eligible to skip a grade.
Natsuhiko can skip a grade, but he doesn't want to be separated from Renji Abarai, Rukia, Izuru Kira, and Momo Hinamori, so he hesitates.
Just when Natsuhiko was distressed, Renji Abarai returned to the dormitory. Seeing Natsuhiko, he came over and asked, "Natsuyan, what's wrong? Is someone bullying you? I'm going to vent your anger."
Xia Yan said quickly: "Brother Renji, no one bullies me."
Abarai Renji laughed and said, "That's right. Your kendo and white performance are both excellent. After using your spiritual power, you are no match for me. How could anyone bully you?"
But then Renji Abarai sat next to Natsuhiko and asked, "Then why are you unhappy? What happened?"
Xia Yan hesitated for a moment and said, "Actually, the teacher came to me this morning and said something."
Abarai Renji asked curiously, "What's the matter?"
Xia Yan whispered: "The teacher asked me if I would like to skip a grade."
"Skip a grade?"
Abarai Renji raised his eyebrows when he heard this and said, "This is a good thing. Why are you hesitating?"
Xia Yan said with some distress: "But I don't want to be separated from you."
Abarai Renji looked at Natsuhiko and said: "Since you can go directly to the fourth grade, don't stay. Even if you follow us to practice, it won't be of much help to you. It's just a waste of time."
Xia Yan scratched his head and said, "But..."
"Nothing but."
Renji Abarai interrupted him directly and said: "You are just going to the fourth grade class, it's not that you can't see us, you will still live in this dormitory, and after school, we will wait for you to go to the cafeteria to eat together , so don’t worry, just agree to the teacher.”
When Xia Yan heard this, he nodded and said, "Okay, I will promise the teacher."
Abarai Renji immediately showed a smile and said: "This is right, go quickly."
Xia Yan left the room, found the teacher, and chose to study in the fourth grade. The teacher completed the procedures for him.
When they learned that Natsuhiko was going to enter the fourth grade, Rukia Hinamori Momo Kira and Izuru all expressed congratulations and envy. If they could enter the fourth grade, they were basically sure to become a trainee Shinigami.
The fourth grade is completely different from the first two grades. The minimum requirement is fourth-level spiritual pressure. This level of spiritual pressure allows people to master Shunpo and elementary Kidō, and their combat power can be doubled. To deal with third-year students, they can only use one level. Ten enemies is not a problem.
If you get a temporarily borrowed Zanpakutō in the sixth grade, you can still perform soul burial against Xuhe even if you can't unlock it.
This will satisfy the most basic requirements for becoming a god of death and possess a certain level of combat power.
But if your grades are not very good, you can only become an ordinary Shinigami after entering the squad.
Therefore, the fourth grade is the most important grade. The cultural classes also include knowledge about killing the void and soul burial, making the coursework even more arduous.
After confirming the decision to skip a grade, the holidays are coming. The spring break lasts from January 15th to the start of March, a total of forty-five days.
Natsuhiko planned to make good use of this vacation and work part-time. In the previous nine months, Natsuhiko would receive pocket money from Renji Abarai every month to buy some daily necessities.
Lucia also worked part-time during the summer vacation, and the money she earned gave Xia Yan a lot.
Xia Yan felt a little sorry for relying on the two of them all the time, so he decided to go out to work.
When Xia Yan came to the shopping street, families were looking for job opportunities, but few were willing to recruit a young boy like Xia Yan who was not tall and young.
After looking for several stores in a row, but with no chance, Xia Yan sat on the roadside in distress.
At this moment, a voice sounded in Xia Yan's ear, "I remember you, what are you doing here?"
Xia Yan raised his head and looked not far away, only to see a short little girl standing there with her signature pink hair that was very eye-catching.
Seeing the person coming, Xia Yan stood up quickly and said, "Vice Captain of Yaqianliu."
The person who appeared in front of Xia Yan was Kusuka Yachiru, wearing a death tyrant costume and holding a piece of candy in his hand.
Kusaka Yachiru came over and asked, "What happened? Why do you look unhappy?"
Xia Yan scratched his head and said, "I want to find a job, but I'm too young and no one is willing to hire me."
Kusaka Yachiru nodded and said, "So that's it."
Xia Yan looked at the other party and asked curiously: "What is the vice-captain of Yaqianliu doing here?"
When Kusaka Yachiru heard this, he smiled, raised his right hand, and said, "I'm here to buy sweets."
Xia Yan saw the candy in Kusuka Yachiru's pocket and knew that her favorite was Jinping candy, and she always kept the candy in her hands.
Yachiru Kusuka thought for a while, took out a candy and handed it to Xia Yan, saying, "I'll give this to you."
"Thanks."
Xia Yan took the Jinping candy, opened the wrapper and put it in his mouth.
Jinping sugar is made from Yiluo powder and sugar water. This Yiluo powder is made by frying and grinding glutinous rice flour. Mix Yiluo powder with sugar water and stir continuously to make spherical sugar pills with bulges. Jin Ping Tang.
Jinpingtang is somewhat like granulated sugar. After chewing it, it turns into tiny particles and fills the mouth. It is full of sweetness.
As Xia Yan ate the candy, Kusuka Yachiru looked at him and said, "You can go to the candy shop on the corner. They are hiring people there. I will take you there."
"Yeah?"
Natsu Yan stood up immediately, and Kusaka Yachiru took him to the candy shop. After entering, he introduced Natsu Yan to the shop owner.
Although Natsuhiko was relatively young, with the help of Kusuka Yachiru, the shop owner still kept Natsuhiko.
Xia Yan was able to stay here, and at the same time he was very grateful to Kusuka Yachiryu, but before he had time to express his thanks, Kusuka Yachiryu had disappeared.
Xia Yan made up his mind that after receiving the first month's income, he would buy a large bag of Jinping candy for Kusanagi Yaqianliu.
