Soul Society, Seireitei.
The blue sky was cloudless for thousands of miles, like a perfect jade clear and transparent. The warm wind sent wisps of warmth, blowing away the thin wisps of clouds, and the whole world was immersed in a dream-like beautiful scenery.
After several modifications, the present Soul Society was no longer the same as before.
Under the efforts of Technological Development Department's two chief and vice directors, Kisuke Urahara and Kurotsuchi Nemu, they successfully created a murderous stone, and also built a real wall along the way, as well as the four major Seireitei in the east, west, south, north and south, and sent four giants of high size to guard it.
In addition, there are many buildings in Seireitei, including the Division 13th Division.
After a period of brewing, the Division has created nearly a thousand death god. They are divided according to the duties of their respective teams, and they are sent to various places in the world through stable breaks, making the originally empty and quiet Seireitei suddenly become lively.
As the wandering souls in Human World are constantly introduced, Soul Society became more and more prosperous.
Countless souls waiting to be reborn, scattered in various areas of Rukongai with Seireitei as the center and radiation in all directions, the heavier the crime, the further away from Seireitei.
But today, it is a very special day.
Those souls that were scattered in various areas, almost most of them gathered in front of Seireitei.
There is no distinction of races here, no distinction of nobility, all souls are treated equally, no longer the barrier of life, gathered together and whispered to each other, just like a scene of paradise on earth.
A middle-aged, bald man squeezed into the crowd and curiously pricked up his ears to listen carefully to what they were talking about.
"It's almost noon. Why hasn't he come out yet?" A well-built white man looked anxious. He stared at the door nervously, rubbing his hands uneasily as if he was waiting for something.
"Soon, soon. Don't be so anxious. Be patient." The black companion next to him advised, "No matter how anxious you are, it is useless. When you come out, don't you want to see his face?"
The middle-aged bald man curiously approached and interrupted the conversation between the two. "Hello, my name is Phil Coulson. I have just come to Soul Society. May I ask why you are here?"
The bald man was Coulson.
He was personally led to Soul Society by Lod, so he was assigned to the area closest to Seireitei because of the 'back door'.
At first, Coulson was still not used to it and could not accept the fact that he was dead.
But after he saw the magnificent and huge white wall, and with the advice and help of the kind-hearted souls around him, he lived for a few days and gradually accepted and got used to it. He planned to wait for rebirth peacefully.
At this time, seeing so many people gathered outside Seireitei, with Coulson agent's character, he naturally could not sit still, so he ran out to inquire about the information.
"I am Powell, and he is Gerard." The black man's character was very straightforward, and he did not exclude Coulson. After introducing himself and his friends, he said, "Today is the recruitment birthday of the Spiritual Arts Academy. We are waiting for the people of the Academy to come."
"Spiritual Arts Academy?" Coulson was confused.
"As long as you can pass the test and join the Spiritual Arts Academy, you will have a chance to become death god in the future. Then you won't have to stay in this crappy place where birds don't shit. You can live in the white wall!" Powell explained patiently.
Coulson heard this and stared at the boss: "Training death god's college"
"Yes, if you want to leave Rukongai and enter the Seireitei inside the white wall, this is the only way." Powell licked his lips, his eyes showing excitement, and said: "The neighbor of my uncle's nephew passed the test last year. He became a student of the Spiritual Arts Academy and lived in Seireitei."
"Powell, don't chat. Look over there, Seireitei is open!" Gerard shouted excitedly and waved to his companions to look at it.
For a moment, the noisy crowd quieted down at the same time.
Everyone tried to stretch their necks, and their eager eyes were focused on the slowly opening Seireitei.
Coulson was naturally no exception. He suppressed the surprise in his heart and tried to see a bit of the scene behind Seireitei through the gap between the crowd. It was a completely different environment from Rukongai.
The continuous ups and downs of the mountain, as well as the road paved with grass, the buildings on the street were neat and orderly, the light colored walls and roof tiles were spread, and several huge palaces could be seen in the distance. Compared with Rukongai on the outside, it was like a refugee pit.
This time, Coulson finally knew why these people wanted to go to Seireitei.
Seireitei is like New York, and Rukongai is like Mexico.
The two are the same, there is a high wall, but the difference is that the current status is the Americans.
I don't know if there are Mexicans here. If there are, maybe they will laugh loudly at the Americans. They, who have always been high above, will now fall to the wall.
Coulson's lips curved with a bitter smile. He shook his head with a little self-mockery and sighed. "I didn't expect that one day, the people stopped by the high wall will become us. Even in hell, there is still a distinction between high and low."
"Come, they are coming!"
"I saw it. It is the students of the Spiritual Arts Academy. This time, it is them who lead the team!"
Three men and a woman in white clothes walked out of Seireitei together, causing a disturbance in the crowd.
Experienced people had already lined up in a line. After suffering the previous loss, no one dared to underestimate these people, even if they were not death god now, they were just preparing to become death god's students.
Coulson's eyesight was particularly sharp, and he noticed the difference in a moment.
Although the three people were wearing the same clothes, they were all students of the Spiritual Arts Academy, but the two men deliberately lagged behind the girl by half a step. Moreover, their behavior and demeanor seemed to be very respectful to the young girl.
Moreover, there was a real warrior sword on the waist of the girl.
Coulson, who had been in close contact with Lod several times, recognized almost at a glance that the weapon on the girl's waist was zanpakuto.
Zanpakuto was equivalent to every death god, and this sword undoubtedly explained why the girl's status was so high.
She was a death god!
Some people had participated in the last enrollment, so they recognized this girl.
"Senior Chen, should we start now?"
A white male student took half a step closer and lowered his head as he asked cautiously.
"Mm, let's begin."
Senior Chen nodded slightly. She gently pressed her hand on his waist and said softly, "Thank you, two juniors. If there is a riot, I will be responsible for suppressing it."
The eyes of the two male students never left sword. A trace of envy flashed in their eyes from time to time. In the end, they reluctantly retracted their eyes and turned to the dark crowd. They said loudly, "The second enrollment of the Spiritual Arts Academy officially begins now!"
The speed of the enrollment test was very fast, and the speed at which people were eliminated was even faster.
As long as everyone approached and pressed their hands on the crystal ball, then the two student union members could judge whether the person Spiritual Power passed through the degree of light.
Soon, it was Coulson's turn. Out of the more than a hundred people before this, only three or four people passed.
Coulson was filled with apprehension. He walked to the front of the crystal ball and pressed his hand on it, waiting for his judgment.
The light emitted by the crystal ball was small, but it was enough to illuminate the faces of the surrounding people.
"Rank eight Spiritual Power, qualified."
The male student raised his head and smiled. "Welcome, you can join the Spiritual Arts Academy."
