Soon, the date for the start of the new semester came, and Natsuhiko separated from Renji Abarai for the first time and went to the fourth grade classroom.
When he appeared in class, the other students in the class were very surprised. Xia Yan looked only eleven years old. He looked like a kid, but he was actually a fourth-year student who had skipped a grade.
Xia Yan walked in carefully. A sturdy young man looked at Xia Yan and asked, "Hey, kid, did you go to the wrong door?"
Xia Yan looked at the other person and replied: "That's right, the teacher asked me to come to the fourth grade class."
A girl with a black ponytail next to her asked curiously: "Little brother, how old are you?"
Xia Yan answered honestly: "Thirteen years old."
"Thirteen?"
The sturdy young man's eyes widened and he asked, "You have fourth-level spiritual pressure at the age of thirteen?"
Xia Yan shook his head and said: "I am not a fourth-level spiritual pressure."
The sturdy young man smiled and said: "I'm just telling you, how can you have fourth-level spiritual pressure at such a young age?"
But the girl with the ponytail frowned and asked, "But without fourth-level spiritual pressure, you can't study in the fourth grade."
Xia Yan smiled and said: "I am not the fourth level of spiritual pressure, I am the fifth level of spiritual pressure."
"Fifth class?"
The burly young man stood stunned on the spot, and the fourth-year freshmen around him showed expressions of disbelief.
Among the fourth-year students in this class, no one has reached the fifth level of spiritual pressure, and every student is over a hundred years old.
Xia Yan is only thirteen years old, but he already has fifth-level spiritual pressure, which is scary.
Most of the students at Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy, even if they graduate, will not be able to reach the fifth level of spiritual pressure. Only a few can reach the fifth level of spiritual pressure, and after being trained and mastered, they can already take seats after entering the squad. .
A thirteen-year-old with fifth-level spiritual pressure is extremely rare in the history of Zhenyang Spiritual Arts Academy.
Even for advanced students of the sixth level of spiritual pressure, it takes more than a hundred years to achieve it.
The burly young man said without tears: "Thirteen years old, fifth level spiritual pressure, really makes people jealous."
The girl with the ponytail smiled and said, "Perhaps only Hisagi Shuhei-senpai from our class can compare."
When the sturdy young man heard this, he looked into the distance and said, "Hisaki Shuhei-senpai is also a fifth-level reiatsu, how enviable he is."
When Natsuhiko heard this, he followed his gaze and saw Hisagi Shuhei in the corner of the class, with short black hair, a stern face, and the word 69 carved on his cheek.
Shuhei Hisagi, the future deputy captain of the 9th Division, assisted Kashiwa Village in killing Tosen Kaname in the Karakura Town Chapter. Later, after Rokusha Kensai and Kunan Haku returned to the 9th Division, he was still able to defeat Kunan Haku. Become a vice-captain.
His talent is not as good as Shiba Haiyan and Ichimaru Gin, but in the history of Soul Society, he is also a rare genius.
Before he graduated, he was already being competed by various divisions, but he insisted on joining the ninth division.
This is because when Hisagi Shuhei was a child, he was attacked by a Hollow and was saved by Rokusha Kennishi, the captain of the ninth division at the time. Rokusha Kennishi had the two numbers 69 on his abdomen, so Hisagi Xiubing had the two numbers 69 tattooed on his face. 69 means the Sixth Car and the Ninth Division.
I just didn't expect that Hisagi Shuhei was also in this class.
But think about it, Hisagi Shuhei will lead Abarai Renji Hinamori Momo and Kira Izuru as interns in the future. At that time, Abarai Renji and the others have already received their Zanpakutō, and the Zanpakutō will not be available until the fourth grade. You can get it, so Renji Abarai was in fourth grade at the time.
So Hisagi Shuhei is probably two grades older than them.
Natsuhiko glanced at Hisagi Shuhei's face, found an empty seat, and sat down.
Xia Yan's arrival in the fourth grade caused quite a stir, not only in this class, but also in other fourth grade classes, as well as in the fifth and sixth grades.
The fifth-level reiatsu at the age of thirteen means higher achievements in the future. Such qualifications are no worse than Hisagi Shuhei, who has just graduated and entered the ninth division.
Therefore, Natsuhiko's appearance attracted the attention of the academy and even the attention of the Gotei 13th Division.
But no one tried to contact Xia Yan, because the level of qualifications is not limited to spiritual pressure.
The most important thing is the Zanpakutō. If a student can get a temporary Zanpakutō in the fourth grade and start to use it within a year, even if he only has fourth-level spiritual pressure, he will be more attractive to the Gotei Thirteenth Division than fifth-level spiritual pressure. gaze.
In addition, Shunpo and Kidō are also extremely important, and Kendo and Hakuta are also assessment criteria.
Although Xia Yan has relatively high spiritual pressure and excellent grades, his other talents have not been revealed, and many people are waiting to see what happens.
And three days later, it will be the date to receive the temporary borrowed Zanpakutō.
. . .
In the auditorium, Xia Yan stood in the queue with an excited expression, waiting for the temporary loan of the Zanpakutō.
After finishing his studies in the fourth grade, Natsuhiko entered the sixth grade directly and was temporarily borrowed a Zanpakutō.
Although the temporarily borrowed Zanpakutō will not be officially awarded until joining the team, if the rules are not violated, the Zanpakutō will belong to the individual.
Natsuhiko is looking forward to his Zanpakutō, but it will take some time before he gets it.
Xia Yan stood at the front of the crowd, but because he was skipping a grade, his student status was at the last one. After everyone in front was called, the teacher's voice sounded, "Xia Yan."
"arrive."
Xia Yan stood up suddenly and ran towards the stands. Seeing his figure, the other teachers and students had complicated expressions.
Fourteen-year-old Xia Yan is the youngest winner of the Shallow Fight in Soul Society. Being in the same grade as him, all the light will be blocked.
Of course, in three years, a younger and more powerful genius will appear and shock the entire Soul Society.
Xia Yan walked up to the podium, and a teacher handed a Zanpakutō to Xia Yan and said, "I will lend you this Zanpakutō temporarily. After I bring you into the team, I will officially grant it to you."
Natsuhiko took the Zanpakutō, suppressed his excitement, and returned to the team.
The Zanpakutō is wrapped in a scabbard. This scabbard is not part of the sword, but is configured by the academy to prevent accidents.
Most people will discard the scabbard after mastering the true name of the Zanpakutō. Most of the captain-level and deputy-captain-level Shinigami's Zanpakutō will not be placed in the scabbard.
And Ermeiya Wang Yue once made a sword that was so sharp that no scabbard in the world could hold it, and it shined in the Thousand-Year Blood War Chapter.
Xia Yan held the handle of the knife and slowly pulled the long knife out of the scabbard. The black and white blade and the sharp blade were pulled out of the scabbard inch by inch.
When Xia Yan completely pulled out the long knife, what appeared in front of him was a knife with a blade length of two feet and two inches.
In Soul Society, almost all shallow strikes are sword strikes.
The tachi is similar to the tachi, but there are some differences. The tachi is relatively long and has a large arc, while the tachi is relatively short and has a smaller arc.
In addition, the way of wearing it is different. Most of the tachi's blades are facing the ground. The handle has two rings and is hung around the waist.
When using a knife, the blade is pointed upward and inserted into the waist.
In Bleach, almost all shallow attacks are knife attacks, and Xia Yan's one is no exception.
Xia Yan looked at the sword in front of him, feeling endless joy in his heart. This was his Zanpakutō, the Zanpakutō that would accompany him in the next time.
After receiving the Zanpakutō, Natsuhiko listened to the teachers' lectures and then returned to his dormitory.
As soon as he stepped into the dormitory, Renji Abarai saw the Zanpakutō, his eyes lit up, and he rushed towards him and said, "Let me see your sword quickly."
Natsuhiko handed the Zanpakutō to Renji Abarai. After the latter caught it, he pulled out the knife, looked at the sharp blade, and said, "Is this the Zanpakutō?"
As he spoke, Abarai Renji held the handle of the knife, raised the knife high and then slashed it down, causing a strong wind to rise.
Renji Abarai was very envious and said, "I envy you for being able to get the Zanpakutō so quickly."
Natsuhiko smiled and said, "Brother Renji, you will definitely be able to get a Zanpakutō when you reach fourth grade."
Renji Abarai sighed and said, "It will take another two years."
Renji Abarai is still only a second-year student, and there are still two years before he can enter the fourth grade.
Renji Abarai wanted to skip a grade in advance. His grades were average. Although his spiritual pressure met the requirements and his swordsmanship was good, his scores in each exam were relatively poor.
But he will graduate sooner or later, and his future is not bleak.
Kira Izuru and Kondo Yuu passed around Natsuhiko's Zanpakuto, with envious looks in their eyes.
Renji Abarai looked at Natsuhiko and asked, "After getting the Zanpakuto, it is said that I will go to Rukongai for internship. How long will it take?"
Xia Yan replied: "There are still half a year left. In this half year, you have to learn the knowledge of killing Xu and soul burial. In the second half of the year, you will practice. But initially, you will follow the seniors who were reborn in the sixth generation, and you will only understand the steps of killing Xu."
Abarai Renji said with a smile: "Then you have to work hard and try to solve it as soon as possible."
Xia Yan nodded heavily and said, "I will."
