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

Nnoitra was just an Adjuchas Hollow who hadn't yet broken through, and was already worlds apart from Nel; even her steel skin couldn't be broken!

"Wha...what!"

Neutra was terrified.

"Your skills are far from sufficient..."

When Nel realized that her opponent couldn't even break through her steel armor, she understood that the power of the Arrancar Vasto Lorde couldn't be judged by the standards of the past.

“If I met my past self now, I could probably take on ten of them without any problem.” Nel was quite satisfied with her transformation, but the battle with Nnoitra seemed rather dull. Sheathed her sword and said, “I’m done testing you. You can go now.”

Don't underestimate me!!!

When Nnoitra saw Nel turn and leave in front of him, he immediately lost his guard, his spiritual pressure suddenly erupted, and six scythes simultaneously attacked Nel's head.

He was aiming at the mask on Nel's head. If all six attacks landed on the same spot, even Vastod's mask might not be unscathed.

However, as if she had eyes in the back of her head, Nel drew her sword instantly.

puff-

A streak of light flashed past, and Nnoitra's six arms were severed from his body.

"My teacher often taught me that I must not let my guard down against enemies behind my back..."

Nilu recalled a difficult memory: a few years ago, her teacher gave her special training, finding various unexpected opportunities to ambush her and train her to react to such ambushes.

Backstabbing was a key part of their special training, and Nil noticed it immediately.

"Go to hell!"

Nnoitra had lost his mind, his eyes filled with madness, and a holographic flash began to form in his mouth.

"We've already let you go, why are you still so stubborn?"

Nilu looked helpless. She had no grudge against Nnoitra and, if she could, she didn't want to kill him.

However, Las Noches will be their palace from now on, so they can't let Nnoitra's Cero destroy it.

call out--

Nel passed by Nnoitra at incredible speed, and Nnoitra's head flew off in the process.

The holographic flash that was forming in Nnoitra's mouth came to an abrupt halt, and the madness in his eyes quickly faded when he saw his headless body.

"So strong..."

A thought flashed through Neutra's mind, his head hit the ground and rolled a few times. Before he could think any further, he lost consciousness.

"I thought you wouldn't be able to do it."

Harribel loosened her grip on the hilt of the sword. She knew that Nel was kind-hearted and rarely killed other intelligent Hollows, so she had just been preparing to make her move.

“I can still bring myself to kill the enemy!” Nilu chuckled.

Meanwhile, July had already removed the Killing Stone spikes from Grimmjow's body and healed the wounds they had left behind.

"The leopard's head without fur doesn't feel very good to the touch..." July reached out and rubbed the leopard's head before it could retract its head.

Grimmjow grinned, and a low growl like an engine rumbled from his throat.

However, knowing that his head was in their hands, he dared not move.

"Why did you save me? Are you the Grim Reaper?"

Grimmjow couldn't help but ask.

His doubts grew stronger.

He couldn't understand why a Shinigami would help him, especially since this Shinigami was the teacher of the Arrancar Vasto Lorde Hollow.

“Because you have good potential,” July said bluntly, smiling slightly. “Do you crave power, leopard?”

At that moment, Grimmjow noticed that Nnoitra's spiritual pressure had disappeared, and his pupils immediately contracted.

“Power?” Grimmjow glanced at Nnoitra. “Of course I crave it; that’s what happens to the weak.”

“Then follow me.” July chuckled. “Those two Arrancar Vasto Lorde Hollows are my disciples. Follow me, and I can grant you power and teach you the art of combat.”

"I am willing... to become your disciple..."

Grimmjow lowered his head. He craved power and longed to evolve into a Vasto Lorde Hollow. Even if the other party was a Shinigami, he was willing to follow him.

"Very good." July nodded gently. "From now on, you are my disciple."

July glanced at the other Hollows in the hall. Seeing that Nnoitra was about to escape, they naturally did not want to stay here any longer. They wanted to escape while the two Arrancar Vasto Lorde Hollows went to intercept Nnoitra. However, just as they were about to escape, they found themselves bound to the spot by the shadow.

Chapter 351 The Power of Emptiness

Nilu and Halibel returned to July's side.

"Teacher, I won! That..." Nel suddenly remembered that she didn't even know the name of that Hollow, "That so-called 'King of Hueco Mundo' was so weak!"

"You're already an Arrancar Vasto Lorde Hollow. If you still can't beat an Adjuchas Hollow, then I'll really have to punish you properly," July chuckled.

“I never imagined that Las Noches would be without even a single Vasto Lorde Hollow, while a single Adjuchas Hollow dares to call himself the King of Hueco Mundo,” Harribel said.

"Perhaps the other Vastod Hollows don't like fighting."

In July, she realized that the First Blade, Stark, was a Vasto Lorde Hollow who disliked fighting.

After taking Nel and Halibel in as his companions, he also searched for Stark in Hueco Mundo.

However, during this period, Stark was wandering in Hueco Mundo and did not stay in a fixed place, so July could not find him.

"Nel, you shall take charge of Las Noches."

In July, Nel was chosen as the new queen of Las Noches.

The Hollows value strength above all else, and there aren't many rules governing Las Noches. Currently, Nel is stronger than Harribel, so July chose to make Nel the new queen.

"Me? I don't have much experience..." Nel was a little nervous, but to her this was a recognition from her teacher, so she immediately said with great enthusiasm, "But I'll do my best!"

“From now on, I will be your king. Does anyone have any objections?” Nel approached the Hollows and asked for their opinions.

“The king should be more dignified,” Heribel whispered.

"Ahem—" Nel coughed lightly, her small face tensing up as she released her spiritual pressure. "I, Nelel du Odschavank, will become your king. Pledge your allegiance to me!"

The Hollows immediately felt an immense pressure, and they all lowered their heads.

"I am willing to serve you!"

After Nel took control of Las Noches, she became the nominal Queen of Hueco Mundo.

At this point, a new notification appeared on the July panel:

【The Birth of a New King (Only): Guiding disciple Nelielu du Odeschvank to become the King of Hueco Mundo (Completed)】

[Reward: 500000 Universal Experience Points]

[Reward Obtained: Void Power]

The special mission of training a new king has been completed.

The reward for this task far exceeded expectations for July.

He had never gained so much general experience at once!

"If I could support a Death Slayer Captain-Commander... wouldn't I also receive a generous reward?"

July couldn't help but think of the Shinigami. Just as there are leaders in the Hollows, there are also leaders in the Shinigami. The leader of the Shinigami is none other than the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13.

[Special Mission: The Birth of the Captain-Commander (Unique). Mentoring his disciple, Kana Azashiro, to become the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13.]

[Special Mission: The Birth of a Captain-Commander (Unique). Mentoring his disciple Kensei Muguruma to become the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13]

...

[Special Mission: The Birth of the Captain-Commander (Unique). Mentoring his disciple, Madarame Ikkaku, to become the Captain-Commander of the Gotei 13]

A series of new messages suddenly popped up on the system panel, leaving July dizzy.

"Old Man Shan is still alive! He really doesn't shy away from trouble..." July couldn't help but click her tongue as she went through all the missions of the Grim Reaper's disciples.

However, just like the "Birth of the Captain" mission, if one disciple completes the "Birth of the New King" mission, the other missions will become invalid.

"What about the Quincy..." July couldn't help but think of the Wandenreich again; the Quincy also had leaders.

[Special Mission: The Birth of the Quincy King (Unique). Mentor your disciple, Minina McCarron, to become the Quincy King.]

[Special Mission: The Birth of the Quincy King (Unique). Mentoring his disciple, Littor Lampard, to become the Quincy King.]

...

Four new messages popped up on the system panel again.

"Then the Spirit King..." July thought of Ichigo Kurosaki. If all three powers were gathered, it wouldn't be impossible to cultivate a new Spirit King.

However, no new information continued to pop up on the system panel.

"Good heavens... these missions are not easy to complete..." July felt that completing these missions was even more difficult than becoming the Captain-Commander and the King of the Quincy.

"Those are a bit far off, let's look at the rewards from earlier."

In July, attention was focused on another reward from the 'Birth of a New King' quest.

The other reward is 'Virtual Power'!

If I'm not mistaken, this reward should grant him the power of the void.

However, when July focused her attention on the reward notification and tried to claim the reward, a new notification popped up on the panel: it needs to be claimed in an area with extremely high concentration of ethereal particles.

"Can't you even get this?" July frowned. "This is Hueco Mundo, the place with the highest concentration of Hollow particles on the surface of Hueco Mundo..."

The concentration of ethereal particles in the Hueco Mundo Palace is not low, but it still does not meet the requirements.

This reward involves incorporating external ethereal particles into the body, allowing a portion of July's soul to gain ethereal power.

Its principle is similar to that of a Zanpakuto, both originating from the power of one's own soul.

"The only place with a higher concentration of spiritual particles than Hueco Mundo... is the Great Void Forest." July thought for a moment and realized that she actually knew of a place with a much higher concentration of spiritual particles than Hueco Mundo, and that place was the Great Void Forest.

Many years ago, in July, I found a white thorn forest in the Great Void Forest and obtained a fragment of the Spirit King there. The concentration of Void Spirit Particles in that place was much higher than that in the Void Palace, so it should meet the requirements.

......

"The concentration of ethereal particles is very high; this must be the place."

After turning Grimmjow into an Arrancar in July, he went to the Forest of Menreiki alone.

Based on his memory, he found the location where he had discovered the white thorn bushes.

The white thorn forest here is gone. It was originally the skeleton of an ancient Hollow. Influenced by the fragment of the Spirit King, the bone forest showed signs of giving birth to new Hollows. However, after July took away the fragment of the Spirit King, it completely lost the opportunity to give birth to new Hollows.

In July, a thought crossed his mind, and he decided to claim the reward of 'Power of Emptiness'.

The next instant, an unusual suction force emanated from July's body, and the surrounding ethereal particles all converged towards July.

Soon, a huge red and black vortex formed in the air. This red and black vortex was formed by the convergence of extremely high concentrations of ethereal particles.

A red and black vortex, centered on July, formed a funnel shape and rapidly flowed into July's body.

July understood why such a high concentration of ethereal particles was needed.

The power of the Hollow is corresponding to the power of the Shinigami. The stronger his spiritual pressure, the more Hollow particles he needs to absorb!

The terrifying vortex of ethereal particles rapidly surged into the spirit body. If a death god below the captain level were here, he would probably be instantly crushed into pieces by the vortex of ethereal particles.

However, July's spiritual strength was already extremely terrifying. With the blessing of the Bloodlust Armor, it far surpassed that of ordinary captain-level Grim Reapers, and the Void Spirit Vortex could not harm his spiritual body.

At the same time, the space of consciousness is also vibrating.

Chapter 352 The Secret of the Consciousness Space

July noticed the changes in the consciousness space, and with a thought, she arrived in the consciousness space.

In the realm of consciousness, the full moon in the sky remained pristine and white, while at the base of the white tower standing amidst the black desert, numerous new buildings had sprung up.

These buildings are not as tall as the White Pagoda, but they are still much more magnificent than ordinary buildings.

"It looks no smaller than Seireitei..."

The number of extra buildings is considerable, occupying a large area in the Black Desert.
