“Ha, that’s awesome!”
Seeing this, Renji also jumped up suddenly and shouted, then turned to Rukia-san and said:
“Haha, Rukia-san, did you hear that?
My spiritual power level is six; I’m a genius!”
Rukia looked at Renji’s face, which was practically screaming ‘I’m amazing, hurry up and praise me,’ and couldn’t help but press a hand to her forehead, replying perfunctorily:
“Yes, yes, Renji is a genius.
You really are a genius.”
“Of course, I, Renji, am incredibly powerful!” Renji said loudly, hands on his hips.
“I wonder who was just standing there doubting themselves a moment ago?”
Hearing this, Renji went straight into an ORZ pose, unable to get back up.
“Alright, if you want to celebrate, do it later.
There are many people behind you, so don’t waste everyone’s time,” the examiner said.
At this moment, the examiner was also full of hope for Rukia.
After all, birds of a feather flock together.
Since that boy’s talent was so good, she likely wouldn’t be far behind.
Rukia walked up to the examiner.
He had the kind of background character face that wouldn’t stand out in a crowd, a slightly chubby build, and his Zanpakuto was tucked into his waist.
“By the way, kid, you’re Renji, right?
Take your spiritual power level certificate and register over there.
My name is Amasai Kajin.
Don’t forget about this uncle later!” After saying that, he lowered his head and said:
“Just like before, put your hand on it,” the examiner uncle said.
However, his attitude was clearly much better than before, though the smile on his face quickly turned into shock.
The testing device read: Spiritual Power Level – Nine!
This…
Amasai Kajin rubbed his eyes, looking at Rukia in disbelief.
A spiritual power level of nine—people who could reach this level could be counted on one hand.
It was a once-in-a-century occurrence, something one could only hope for but never seek out.
And now, such an existence was standing right before him in the flesh.
“Whew.”
Amasai Kajin took a deep breath and said to Rukia:
“Head to the Academy immediately.
Additionally, I will report your situation truthfully to the Captain-Commander.
Other matters will be slowly assigned once you reach the Academy!”
After speaking, he spoke to a Shinigami, instructing them to escort Rukia and the other boy all the way to the Academy.
As the three of them walked along the road, Renji said with a look of disbelief:
“For real?
A level nine?
That’s the highest level!
Rukia-san, you’re just too amazing.”
He then thought of his own level six spiritual pressure…
emmm, it was too demoralizing.
He couldn’t compare himself to her; that simply wasn’t humanly possible.
Rukia remained calm internally.
After all, her original body’s talent was already high, and in this life, two souls had merged, making her soul power terrifyingly high.
Moreover, she had been able to speak with her Zanpakuto spirit for a long time, and she had even learned its name just a week ago.
Now, all she needed was an asauchi to perform Shikai.
“What, you achieved the highest level in the spiritual power test and you have no reaction at all?” The system’s voice echoed in her mind.
“Stop talking nonsense and hurry up.
I don’t believe that for something this big, you don’t have any rewards.
This counts as changing the plot to a certain extent.
After all, even the Captain-Commander has been alerted, and those in the Gotei 13 basically all know that a once-in-a-century genius has appeared in the Soul Society,” Rukia responded impatiently.
“Well, don’t be in such a rush.
There will definitely be rewards.
There, they’re out.”
Ding!

“Hmm?
System, what is this ‘World’s Commission’?”
“It’s a mission issued by the consciousness of another world.
You can use it to travel to other worlds.
After leaving the Bleach World, the flow of time here slows down at a ratio of 3:1.”
Time was exactly what she lacked right now.
With this, she could continuously grow stronger in other worlds.
By the time the plot officially began, she would have nothing to fear.
After nearly an hour of trekking, Rukia and the others finally arrived at the Spiritual Arts Academy.
Standing at the main gate was a white-haired old man with a faint smile on his face, looking very kind and amiable.
“Rukia and Renji, right?” the old man said slowly.
“I am the Dean of the Spiritual Arts Academy.
Follow me.”
After thanking the escorting Shinigami, the three of them arrived in the Dean’s office.
“You will be assigned to Class 1, the Elite Class.
Someone will deliver your school uniforms and dormitory room numbers this afternoon.
Oh, right, go get your measurements taken later.”
“Alright, Renji, you may leave now.
I have something to discuss with student Rukia.”
Meanwhile, at the Sixth Division.
“Captain, this is the latest news from within the squad,” the current Sixth Division Vice-Captain said, walking in with a stack of documents.
“Fine, put it there.
I’ll look at it in a moment.” Kuchiki Byakuya still maintained his cold and aloof persona, as if nothing could ever disturb him.
“But Captain, I think it would be better if you looked at it now.
After all, it’s about a once-in-a-century genius in the Soul Society.
Her spiritual power level even reached the maximum level of nine!
Here is her file.”
“Her?” Byakuya asked.
“Yes, it’s a girl.”
At this moment, a ripple appeared in Kuchiki Byakuya’s normally placid eyes.
He hadn’t expected this genius to be a girl.
Kuchiki Byakuya slowly opened the file.
When he saw the photo on the first page, his pupils constricted.
He then stood up abruptly, ignoring the unprocessed division affairs, threw on his haori, and quickly left the room, heading straight for the Spiritual Arts Academy.
“Captain, what’s wrong?
Where are we going?” the Vice-Captain asked in confusion.
“The Spiritual Arts Academy!”
Returning to Rukia’s side.
“Student Rukia, Class 1 is generally composed of nobles.
You also know that the friction between nobles and commoners hasn’t just started yesterday.
I hope you can be understanding and not get too angry.
Of course, if you are threatened, you can come to me.
Though I am old, this old man still has some influence.”
“Grandpa Dean, I have one request,” Rukia said.
“What request?
As long as it is within my power, I will grant it!”
“I want to receive an asauchi now.”
“Haha, actually, I would have given it to you even if you hadn’t asked.
Normally, only students who have been enrolled for a year can receive an asauchi, but geniuses always have privileges.
I had it prepared before you even arrived.”
As he spoke, the Dean stood up and opened a nearby cabinet, taking out a standard-issue asauchi.
“Zanpakuto all look the same before they manifest.
Only after that will they change, and only then will it truly belong to you.”
Rukia happily took the asauchi.
This meant she could finally perform Shikai!
Drawing the blade an inch, the smooth steel reflected Rukia’s image.
“Creak”
Just as Rukia wanted to observe the Zanpakuto further, the door to the Principal’s Office was opened.
