Chapter 26: Conditions for Speedrun

Chapter 26: Conditions for Speedrun
boom--

Lu Li's figure flew backwards, knocking over several carts loaded with teaching equipment, and finally he adjusted his body and stood still with difficulty.

He glanced at the bamboo sword in his hand, feeling the magic of the captain's attack just now.

"That's all for today, kid. You should have fully realized your shortcomings."

On the other side, the captain put on his large haori again and glanced at Lu Li, who was covered in scars. "You're still a little short of graduating early."

Lu Li stretched his aching body and said, "I just want to join the Gotei 13 as soon as possible. I believe that only through real combat can one grow faster."

Upon hearing this, the captain paused as he was leaving the classroom, turned around and said, "So that's what you think, but you should also know that if you study for a few more years in the Spiritual Arts Academy before graduating, you can directly get a higher position."

The students present were shocked when they heard the captain's words. They didn't expect the captain to speak so bluntly. It was almost an explicit statement.

With Lu Li's talent, Zhan Quan Zou Gui is already the best in the academy. If he can improve his spiritual pressure for a few more years, he can directly become the chief officer of the Gotei 13 after graduation, or even the vice-captain!

But if Lu Li chooses to skip a grade and graduate in this final exam, due to his current level of spiritual pressure, Lu Li can only become an ordinary team member, and at most he will be taken care of by the captain because of his talent.

Lu Li and the captain looked at each other, "Baby birds always have to leave the nest, and they can fly higher in the sky."

The captain raised his white beard slightly, "In this case, I will give you a chance. If you can satisfy the examiner, I will let you graduate early."

After saying that, the captain left the classroom. Obviously, this was his last time to guide Lu Li.

Lu Li walked towards the noisy crowd and began to use Hui Dao to heal his injuries.

This was already his third time to spar with the captain in kendo. The captain was no exaggeration to say that he was the strongest god of death. He was good at slashing, punching and escaping. The captain had no weaknesses and was very strong in every aspect.

So far, out of a total of seven sparring matches, including the Bai Da, he has won zero games. It is really difficult to defeat an old monster whose original attributes are not in the same dimension as his own.

But the captain was originally here to educate him, so he would naturally show him various advanced fighting skills intentionally during the battle, which allowed Lu Li to gain a lot.

As reflected in the panel, his current core specialized abilities have been significantly improved, each increased by 3 levels.

Master Swordsmanship Specialization:
Level: lv.23/40 (+3)

Expertise Effect: The Explorer has made great achievements in swordsmanship and can be called a master. When using a sword as the main weapon to attack, it will cause an additional 46% damage.

Master Combat Specialization:
Level: lv.21/40 (+3)

Expertise Effect: Explorers have achieved great success in combat and can be called masters. When attacking in unarmed combat, they will cause an additional 42% damage.

Master Level Drain Specialization:
Level: lv.24/40 (+5)

Expertise Effect: Explorers are more sensitive to the flow of power in combat. When subjected to strong forces, they can channel the force and disperse it, greatly reducing the damage they suffer from blunt force shock.

Well, the specialized ability that Lu Li improved the most was not unarmed combat, nor swordsmanship, but force-dissipating specialty.

The main reason is that Captain Yamamoto is too fierce. He is always at a disadvantage in the competition. If he wants to remain undefeated, he must first become "tough"

Otherwise, facing a captain who is probably at the Grandmaster level in terms of combat expertise, he would be crushed head-on in an instant. "Mr. Lu, are you in such a hurry to graduate?"

After class, Aizen went to the cafeteria with Lu Li, and couldn't help but ask on the way.

Lu Li used the Kaido to heal his wounds while smiling and saying, "Why, Sosuke, are you afraid of loneliness?"

"That's not true."

Aizen remained calm, "It's just that I think you can study for two years before graduating. There's no harm in increasing your spiritual pressure. The daily life of a Gotei tai is not that safe. If you carry out missions in the real world, you may encounter anything. If you're unlucky, you'll be doomed if you run into a hollow."

Lu Lixin said, "I would like to stay here for another two years to improve my attributes, but the End Space does not give me that much time."

The final exam will be in two days, and the End Space has obviously calculated the time, so he only has four days left to stay.

"Sosuke, you know me well, don't you? I just want to go out and find some excitement."

Lu Li said with a smile, and patted Aizen's shoulder again, "If you can't bear to leave me, why not graduate with me."

"Mr. Lu, you are kidding me again. My skills in Zanquan Zougui are far inferior to yours. How can I graduate early?"

Aizen's face was calm. "Besides, from what the captain said, I don't know what the situation was in the past, but if you want to graduate early this time, I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult. If the captain is the examiner, you won't be able to 'pass'."

Aizen had roughly deduced the current situation. The captain admired Lu Jun very much and did not want him to graduate early. Instead, he wanted Lu Li to realize that there are always people better than you and to practice honestly for a few more years, and to temper this piece of magic iron before throwing it into the battlefield.

In this case, if an examiner is to be found to test Lu Li, then the intensity must be pulled to the maximum. In view of Lu Li's extremely high level of punching and ghost walking, it would be unsafe to beat Lu Li unless the deputy captain relied on his spiritual pressure to bully others.

Then, the examiner is most likely a captain of the Gotei 13. Even if he controls the spiritual pressure, how can Lu Li win?
After comprehensive analysis, Aizen felt that the captain was just looking for an excuse to put pressure on Lu Li, and it was impossible for Lu Li to really graduate early.

"Thank goodness, Sosuke, you have already mastered the Shikai. There are very few Shinigami who can do that in the Spiritual Arts Academy. You are a well-deserved genius, so it shouldn't be difficult for you to graduate early."

Lu Li said as he placed a large bowl of rice on the dining table, preparing to start recovering his health.

"Mr. Lu, you are too kind. Since you have made up your mind, I can only wish you can pass the test set by the captain and successfully set a new record for the fastest graduation in the Spiritual Arts Academy."

Aizen said helplessly that normally it would not be difficult for him to graduate early. There were also geniuses in the history of the Spiritual Arts Academy who graduated after only two or three years of study.

The Spiritual Arts Academy does not necessarily have to delay the graduation of those geniuses. As long as they perform well in the art of cutting, punching and walking, and have an outstanding level of spiritual pressure, that will be enough.

For example, if a student gets full marks in the "Zhan Quan Zha Gui Zha" and has a spiritual power of level 10, he can graduate directly and join the team as a chief officer, but he may be the last officer.

He currently has fifth-level spiritual pressure. If he really wants to graduate, he will definitely meet the requirement. The problem is that Lu Jun is too jumpy. No matter who wants to graduate early this semester, most of them will experience the same thing as Lu Jun... challenging a captain.

So no matter from the perspective of his future goals or the difficulty of graduating early this time, he would not choose to challenge with Lu Jun, and can only wait to meet in the Gotei 13 in the future.
