Bleach: Getting Stronger Starting from Teaching at the Spiritual Arts Academy

The next moment, the light burst out of the water dragon's body.

Herribel's expression changed, and she quickly dodged with a spinning attack.

thump—

The light streamed through several stone mountains as if it were not obstructed in the slightest.

Heribel glanced at the rocky mountains with lingering fear. Fortunately, Nilu was sent flying a great distance, and the water dragon slowed down the speed of the light, otherwise she would have had a hard time dodging it.

If this blow hits a vital spot, it would be enough to seriously injure her.

thump—

The faint drumming sound coming from behind her was almost synchronized with the sound of her heartbeat.

Nilu's blade pierced through the water shield and thrust towards Harribel.

Resounding Strike, Instant Strike!

Instant strike is not a move that requires instant stepping, but rather a concentrated burst of power.

After mastering the use of Spirit Pressure Blade, the penetrating power of Instant Strike will increase several times over.

The blade, imbued with spiritual pressure, pierced Harribel's left shoulder, instantly tearing the shoulder armor off.

puff-

Before the pain could catch up with her, Halibel swung her hand back.

Looking up, Nilu's figure had already disappeared.

Bright red blood dripped down the giant shark-tooth sword.

Halibel seized the fleeting opportunity to counterattack.

The sleeves of Nel's academy uniform were torn open by the giant shark sword, and a bloody gash was left on her right abdomen.

Heribel remained silent, raising the Shark Tooth Greatsword, the ethereal light gathering at the tip of the blade.

“It’s finally here…” Nilu murmured softly.

The teacher said that she might be able to learn that move by slashing powerful Cero and feeling the collision between Cero and slash.

Nel sheathed her sword, intending to sever Harribel's Cero!

Two breaths later, the Void Flash attacked Nel.

At the same time, a stream of light rose again from the sheath.

sizzle--

The flowing light collided with the powerful, ethereal flash.

This time, she was unable to cut through the Hollow Flash directly.

The Mermaid Queen's Hollow Flash was several times stronger than the Leopard King's Hollow Flash!

Perhaps due to her talent for water control, Halibel's Void Flash also carries a sense of the weight and weight of ocean waves.

Nilu gritted her teeth, trying her best to maintain the Flowing Light Spirit Blade, but the Flowing Light still could not break through the thick Void Flash.

"What kind of technique is that?! It actually blocked Lady Halibel's Cero!"

In the air, the three members of the animal group were quite surprised.

Judging from the spiritual pressure fluctuations alone, that stream of light was quite different from the Flash of the Void.

However, Nel managed to block the Hollow Flash with just that little spiritual pressure, which consumed even more energy.

"Isn't it true that the stronger the spiritual pressure, the more powerful the technique?"

Snake Great felt that his worldview had been reshaped.

They have not undergone systematic learning, and their application of spiritual pressure is still at a rather rudimentary level.

Hribel felt it even more deeply on the battlefield.

"The Cero was blocked... It's that move again. How can it have such power with so little spiritual pressure?"

Heribel reflected on her personal experience.

She had just felt the spiritual pressure blade with her body; it was an instantaneous spiritual pressure blade, and also highly compressed spiritual pressure.

"Different levels of spiritual pressure concentration?"

Herribel's inspiration was fleeting; she felt as if she had glimpsed the secret, yet remained separated by a veil.

Meanwhile, Nel was also carefully sensing the sensation of the spiritual pressure blade colliding with the Cero.

"That's it..."

Nel's spiritual pressure surged within her body, converging towards her hand. Through her Hollow instincts, she transformed the spiritual pressure into another form.

The hand holding the knife handle glowed with a faint pink light.

Nel is unleashing a Hollow Flash!

The flashes of light intertwined, and a pink glow spread rapidly, quickly turning the spiritual pressure blade of the streamer pink.

Flowing Light - Crimson Flash!

Herribel's expression changed drastically. She immediately sensed the terrifying threat. After the light turned pink, the situation changed in an instant.

sizzle--

The pink spiritual pressure blade sliced ​​through Harribel's Cero and swiftly arrived in front of Harribel.

"will die!"

A thought flashed through Halibel's mind, followed by a sudden recollection of the first time she made friends in Hueco Mundo.

The next moment, the pink spiritual pressure blade stopped in front of Harribel.

Heribel felt the power directly; her back was quickly soaked with cold sweat.

"I lost."

Harribel took a breath and sheathed her greatsword.

"I did it!" Nel suddenly appeared beside her teacher, leaped up, and clung to her. "I successfully combined Cero with 'Flowing Light'!"

Chapter 293 Taking on Apprentices and Special Missions

After Nel and Harribel's battle ended, July's panel also received a notification.

[Disciple Nel has completed her advanced training in spiritual pressure control, successfully comprehending the key to combining Cero with spiritual pressure blades. Rewards calculated.]

[Reward: 10000 Universal Experience Points]

[Reward Obtained: Radiant Flash (Beginner Level)]

"Swordsmanship that incorporates Cero abilities?"

July's heart stirred, and she focused her attention on 'Flowing Light - Cero'.

The next moment, some memories of cultivation surfaced in my mind.

"I see... I haven't mastered Cero yet, so there are some things I don't understand."

July was immersed in the memories of the skills and experience of 'Radiant Flash'.

The training experience gained this time is not just limited to the single move 'Flowing Light: Cero'.

It also contains techniques and experience on fusing Cero into spiritual pressure blades.

In other words, this experience is also effective for other techniques that use 'spiritual pressure blades', only with slight differences. Given July's mastery of other sword techniques, these subtle differences are negligible to him.

With a little deduction, these techniques can be applied to other moves that utilize 'spiritual pressure blade'.

"So here's the problem: I don't know how to use Cryo yet."

July never expected that she would learn the technique of Cero before she even mastered the power of Hollows.

He has now mastered the relevant techniques, but because he lacks the power of Hollows, he cannot unleash Cero, so he cannot use this sword technique even though he has learned it.

This is also why July brought Nel to Hueco Mundo for practical combat.

Although incorporating Cero into his spiritual pressure blade was a sword technique he conceived for Nel that was suitable for Hollows.

However, since he is not a Hollow, he cannot demonstrate it to Nel, so Nel can only experience the clash between Cero and Spirit Pressure Blade through actual combat.

A moment later, July finished organizing her cultivation experience.

Looking up, I saw Nillu talking to Heribel.

“Your techniques are impressive,” Harribel voiced her doubts. “You must have expended far less spiritual pressure than I did in this battle, yet you achieved far better results.”

In the battle just now, apart from the final sword attack that incorporated Cero, Nel's other attacks did not consume much spiritual pressure.

These moves were incredibly powerful, easily shattering her turbulent shield and water dragon.

However, she consumed far more spiritual pressure with Torrent Shield and Water Dragon than with Nel's attacks!

She clearly expended more energy, yet achieved worse results.

"This is the result of long-term training!" Nel said with a smile. "Hollows' use of spiritual pressure is still too rudimentary. You should be able to see that the move I just used was a technique that incorporated Cero. If you can integrate innate abilities like Cero into other techniques, you can also make those techniques very powerful!"

"That's very difficult to do..."

Herribel frowned slightly.

Nilu makes it sound easy, but it's actually just stating the obvious. Without the right techniques, it's impossible to do.

While Cero is an innate ability of Hollows, she only releases it instinctively.

Just like living things eat to fill their stomachs, they don't know how food will be digested or converted into energy after it enters their bodies.

"She has a good teacher."

Harribel glanced at the Grim Reaper beside Nel and a feeling she had never experienced before welled up inside her—envy.

Harribel is considered a uniquely privileged Hollow in Hueco Mundo.

Everything went smoothly.

Since the Gillian evolved into Adjuchas and shed its wild nature, it has never devoured a Hollow.

She felt she was no longer a beast and would not devour other intelligent beings for the sake of power.

Herribel's recipes only contain unawakened small animals and sand containing spiritual particles from Hueco Mundo.

Even so, her spiritual pressure continued to increase rapidly.

It has now evolved to the pinnacle of the Adjuchas Hollow form and is not far from breaking through to the Vasto Lorde form.

Therefore, Halibel never felt envious.

This was the first time she had ever felt this unfamiliar emotion.

"I wish I could have a teacher like that..."

Heribel thought to herself.

"Little He, do you want to learn? But this is what my teacher taught me. You have to become his apprentice before you can learn!"

Nilu saw the lingering envy in Halibel's eyes.

His eyes flickered slightly, and he began to ponder.

Harribel, like her, is a Hollow who can suppress her Hollow instincts with reason.

This is also very rare in the Great Void.

Most Hollows follow their evolutionary instincts and evolve by consuming other Hollows.

Halibel can control this instinct, and she also has the determination and courage to protect her companions.

Even seeing her, this shattered Hollow, did not back down.

Nilu has a good impression of Halibel and thinks she would be a good companion.

"Teacher~ why don't you take He as your apprentice!" Nel grabbed her teacher's hand and said affectionately, "She has great talent~ she certainly won't bury the reputation of Shikatori-ryu!"

“Herribel has good talent and could be taken on as an apprentice, but you haven’t even asked her if she wants to become your apprentice.”

July looked helpless; before Harribel could even speak, Nel was already impatient.
