Ruyue Ming stood there stunned, then carefully examined the unfamiliar yet somewhat familiar Ghost Path teacher before her.

In his memory, Ayatsuda Hachigen was clearly a big, fat man with a kind and generous personality.

But its current state is completely unrelated to its future.

What exactly happened in between? Is time truly a cruel mistress?!

Although he didn't understand what Akira Kisaragi was surprised about, Hachigen Arisaka still dutifully said:

"Master Ghost Dao asked me to tell you that the gates of the Ghost Dao Sect are always open for you."

"If you encounter problems that you cannot solve, you can also seek help from the Ghost Path Sect."

After relaying the message, the other person smiled slightly, turned around, and left the classroom.

Obvious.

As a great demon master, Tetsuzai must have learned some inside information, which is why he entrusted Ushōda Hachigen to convey it to him.

Ru Yueming keenly noticed this.

Aizen was no exception. He pondered for a moment, then said seriously:

"I don't know much about nobles either."

"Given our current position, it's difficult for us to know what the higher-ups in Soul Society are thinking."

"Right now, you might want to ask Yoruichi Shihouin and Captain-Commander Yamamoto; they might know something..."

…………

The First Squad's barracks, tea room.

Amidst the wafting aroma of tea, the teapot continuously emitted a gurgling sound.

Just like an NPC respawning, Yamamoto always appears in a few fixed locations.

Tea room, office, temple.

Every time I saw him, his posture was exactly the same as the last time.

"You made the right decision to come and ask me."

Yamamoto stroked his beard and said in a deep voice, "The investigation into the identity of the previous assassin has indeed yielded results."

"However, this matter is not as simple as it seems on the surface."

Under Akira's curious gaze, Yamamoto gave him a brief analysis of the truth hidden beneath the surface.

Power in Soul Society was divided among nobles, resulting in several different factions.

And the struggle for interests among them is often ruthless.

Besides ongoing wars, framing, slander, and assassination are also common methods.

Yamamoto had witnessed similar events more than once over the course of thousands of years.

He might even get involved for some reason.

The case of the Mole City family is merely a transitional means in the power struggles among the great nobles.

In short, one faction of the nobility is preparing to attack another faction, and they are starting with the betrayal of the Mole City family to launch a new round of conflict.

As for Ru Yueming, he was just an unlucky guy who got caught up in it.

After listening to Yamamoto's analysis, Ruyue Ming frowned:

So I was just an extra?!

Yamamoto remained unfazed, filled his teacup with tea, took a small sip, and replied casually:

"if not?"

Do you think geniuses are respected by those high and mighty people?

"Don't take yourself too seriously."

He put down his teacup and, like a true mentor, spoke earnestly:

"To those people, even the Gotei 13, the backbone of the Soul Society, are nothing more than dispensable tools."

"The only beings they truly fear are those who possess the power to destroy everything..."

As Ru Yueming looked at the serious-looking old man in front of her, she felt that he was implying something.

Chapter 82 This person from Zhicheng is someone I can get along with.

"Don't think about those unimportant things."

Yamamoto then changed the subject, saying, "Regarding the investigation of the Mochishiro family, we have nothing to fear; just cooperate."

"Your top priority right now is to train hard and become a pillar of the Soul Society as soon as possible."

"I was originally planning to let you train once or twice a week, but since you're here today, why not continue the training you didn't finish yesterday?"

Ru Yueming was taken aback for a moment, then grinned and said:

"I can't ask for it."

"I thought of many ways to deal with this yesterday. Captain, you'd better be careful and not let this go wrong."

After saying that, he stood up from his seat and ran out of the tea room.

Yamamoto extinguished the fire in the tea stove, took off his captain's haori, and slowly followed.

In the dojo, two figures stood facing each other.

Ru Yueming couldn't wait any longer and took the lead in getting into position, exuding an imposing aura that gave people a strong sense of pressure.

Yamamoto examined it for a moment, a hint of surprise flashing across his aged face, and nodded slightly:

"A standard Death Sword style opening move, did you learn it from Captain Unohana?"

Ru Yueming nodded, not hiding anything.

"Not bad talent. I never thought there would be a second person in the vast Soul Society who has mastered the Death Sword Style."

"Wouldn't that be incredibly strong?"

"It's alright, but she hasn't fought anyone in a long time. Her Death Sword Style, which combines elements from multiple schools, is probably a bit outdated."

Yamamoto seemed to recall something from the past, sighed heavily, then took off his upper body shihaka and casually tied it around his waist.

As its body stretched out, the joints rubbed against each other, producing a terrifying sound like a snapping string. Its already exaggerated muscles bulged again, highlighting the hideous scars on them, and a terrifying pressure, like a collapsing mountain, followed.

"Ruyueming, now I will teach you the first principle of dealing with people."

"Whether it's a genre or the world..."

"But they are all making progress!"

boom!

A deafening roar followed, and the force of the punch arrived!

…………

On the street outside the First Squad's barracks, the boy walked with a limp, humming an unknown tune as he went.

Although he looked rather miserable, he was clearly in a good mood.

Besides being slightly better than last time, I also got a reward of +2 to my free-to-play level from today's sign-in.

The level of the white-handed skill has been increased from lv38 to lv40.

It must be said that learning from a true master like Yamamoto can lead to a rapid improvement in one's skills.

He had only been beaten a few times and had mastered some of the taught hand-to-hand combat techniques, yet he had already jumped several levels in succession. At present, hand-to-hand combat had become the highest level besides spiritual pressure and swordsmanship.

Ru Yueming opened his personal panel.

Name: Ruyueming

[Identities: Head priest of the Shrine of Rebellious Bones, commoner of Rukongai, first-time graduate of the True Central Academy of Spiritual Arts, disciple of Genryu]

[Spiritual Pressure: lv60]

[Kendo: lv70]

[White-hat: lv40]

[Instant Step: lv30]

[Kido: lv35]

[Exclusive Keywords: Spiritual Affinity, Dangerous Instinct, Divine Heart, Miraculous Healing, Light as a Feather, Mercy of the Death Sword, Demonic Path Specialization, Unique Craftsmanship, Absolute Justice]

Compared to the initial shabby interface, the current interface can definitely be described as luxurious.

Putting aside her inherent advantages, just looking at her stats, Ru Yueming could hold her own against a typical vice-captain, and with the added skill, she could even suppress her opponent.

Furthermore, if one adds the enhancements of their own spirit body, demonic patterns, and unique attributes, it's not impossible to go head-to-head with certain captains.

Despite having a spiritual pressure level of only nine.

However, some of the rules of Soul Society no longer apply to him.

Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little smug.

Just then, the spiritual particles in the air flowed in irregular trajectories, rapidly coalescing, and a faint white glow appeared ahead of the inevitable path.

The white light, hazy yet gradually clear, illuminated a pure white, simple figure.

Captain of the Eleventh Division, Souya Azashiro.

"It's been a long time, Kisaragi-kun."

Compared to his indifference towards others, Souya Mochishiro's attitude towards Ruyue Ming was much gentler, and even his pale face showed a hint of a smile.

"Captain Mole City, it's been a long time."

Ru Yueming waved his hand, which was his way of saying hello.

We're all acquaintances, there's no need to be overly polite.
