The genius of Naruto is a bit ordinary.

In the cafeteria of the Shinō Academy of Spiritual Arts, Xia Li looked at the food in front of him that was exactly the same as the food in the real world and fell into deep thought.

First of all, the food that the soul body needs is definitely not the ordinary human food in the world. Xia Li can also feel that these foods are actually made up of spiritual power.

So, the question is, since Xia Li can absorb spirit particles, why does he still feel hungry?

At this time, Xia Li paused for a moment, and soon realized that the spiritual particles he had absorbed were not enough to meet the other needs of his body, so naturally he would not prioritize solving the problem of hunger.

In other words, even if Xia Li eats as much as he wants, he can still accumulate spiritual power.

Thinking of this, Xia Li took a bite of the Dorayaki in his hand, and then his eyes lit up. The taste was the same as he remembered.

So, even if it is made of leptons, can its taste be perfectly restored?

Xia Li was eating while thinking, everything in this Soul Society is made of spirit particles, the walls, the soil, or the food...

So, does it mean that the effect of the soul eating soil and eating rice is actually the same?

Xia Li asked Abarai Renji next to him with doubts whether there were any souls that starved to death in Soul Society.

Then, Xia Li saw Abarai Renji standing there in silence, and the same was true for Rukia beside him.

"Did I ask something that I shouldn't have asked?" Xia Li raised his eyebrows.

"Let me answer." At this time, Kirara Izuru next to him sighed and said, "You must have come to Soul Society recently, right?"

Xia Li nodded.

"It's great that we can enter the Shinō Academy right after arriving in Soul Society." Kirara Izuru was a little envious, and then said, "That's for sure. For those of us who live in the back areas, starvation is a common thing. I also have some companions who died of hunger. I guess the same is true for the two of them."

Although Abarai Renji looked unhappy at this time, he still nodded and agreed with Kirai Tsuru's guess.

"Oh, sorry, I didn't know." Xia Li was a little apologetic. It seemed that his words did evoke their unpleasant memories.

"It doesn't matter, it's all in the past." Rukia also said at this time.

Xia Li nodded, then looked at Abarai Renji's strong body, which didn't look like he was malnourished at all.

Just from these two days of getting along, Xia Li also felt that Abarai Renci should not be the type of person who would watch his companions starve to death while eating alone.

As expected, talent can be revealed from the very beginning. Abarai Renji and Rukia have the talent to become gods of death. They can both absorb spirit particles from the air to solve most of the hunger problems.

Therefore, hunger can only kill those poor people who are completely unable to absorb spiritual energy from the environment.

I think before they starved to death, these people would eat everything in order to survive, including things that were not food.

In this case, Xia Li’s previous assumption does not seem to be valid. In Soul Society, there is still a difference between food and soil.

Xia Li was a little curious. What was the difference between them? They were both based on spiritual power, but the spiritual particles that made up the walls were relatively fixed, while the spiritual particles that made up the food were easier to absorb?

And, most importantly, Xia Li wanted to know, if he could absorb spirit particles from the environment, then could it be the other way around?

Use the absorbed spirit particles to create food, walls, soil and a series of other things?

If one could study it thoroughly, would it be possible for one person to create everything in Soul Society?

Of course, this is just Xia Li's temporary idea. At least for now, Xia Li, who has not done much research on spiritual power, would not waste time on this.

I might try it out when I have some free time during practice.

After Xia Li felt the spiritual power in the food entering his soul and transforming into a feeling of fullness, he also tried to transform the spiritual power he absorbed into this energy.

Soon, Xia Li's hunger disappeared.

As expected, generally speaking, souls that can become the god of death do not really need to eat, and eating is usually just to satisfy one's appetite.

Thinking of this, Xia Li also began to eat quickly. Even though he was not hungry, he could accumulate spiritual power through food. For him, it was universal.

When Xia Li came to his senses, he found that the three people beside him had already finished their meals and were staring at him eating in amazement.

Because, unknowingly, Xia Li had stood up several times, and each time he took a lot of food from the window.

"Well, even though there's no limit on the amount here and it's free, it's best not to eat too much at once..." At this time, Abarai Renji reminded.

"Uh, I know, I digest food better, but it's almost there." Even Xia Li couldn't help but blush at this moment, and then he quickly swallowed the plate of Dorayaki.

Afterwards, after finishing their breakfast, the few people came to the place where the class was to be held.

As the first class for newbies, this class is used to introduce their future life in the Maou Spiritual Academy and... In this class, they will be given their most important weapon - the precursor to their Zanpakuto - Shōdachi!

Xia Li and the other three naturally sat in a row, but as Xia Li expected, when Abarai Renci was listening to the theoretical knowledge... he looked a little drowsy.

The other two were much more serious.

But the teacher's words were not really important to Xia Li, because most of what he introduced could be found in the previous book, but it was specially put in this class, probably to prevent some people from not reading the book?

As time passed, the unimportant information finally ended, and the teacher finally talked about the Zanpakuto chapter that Xia Li was concerned about.

The teacher took an ordinary samurai sword and said, "This is Asauchi. It is also the weapon you will use every day. During this period, all you need to do is... know the real name of your Asauchi and call your Asauchi by his real name."

"When you are able to call out Asaoka's real name, you will have achieved the Shikai of your Zanpakutō."

As he said this, the teacher took his Zanpakutō and demonstrated his Shikai in front of all the students.

All the students' eyes widened as they watched the ordinary samurai sword suddenly turn into a whip. Those who didn't know much about Zanpakuto were wondering why a samurai sword would turn into a whip after the Shikai.

What they understand is naturally the ability to release the first release. If they can release the first release, then they will surely become the god of death.

The teacher held the whip and said, "Everyone's Zanpakutō has different abilities. It is said that it will build abilities and appearances based on your abilities and mind. For example, my Zanpakutō becomes a whip after Shikai, and I won't tell you its abilities. Some people's Zanpakutō becomes a sword, a spear, or something like that after Shikai, and their abilities are different."

At this moment, Abarai Renji, who was next to Xia Li, had swept away his previous drowsiness and stared at the scene with shining eyes. He also wanted a Zanpakutō of his own.

Xia Li's expression looked a little strange at this time, because he heard a familiar setting again.

Is Zanpakuto determined by each person's ability and mind?

It just so happens that the Mangekyō Sharingan in Naruto is called the eye that reflects the soul, so what about Zanpakuto?

The knife that reflects the soul?

As for based on ability, that’s nonsense. If the ability that appears is something you can’t use, then there’s no point in using it.

Xia Li was also thinking, what kind of knife would appear based on his mind and abilities?

Subconsciously, Xia Li thought of the Moying Sword. Its blade was different from the samurai sword. Although it was also single-edged, it did not have the curvature of the samurai sword, and was much longer than an ordinary samurai sword.

That was Xia Li's favorite appearance, and it was also the one he had already gotten used to. I thought that the appearance after the first release should be similar.

As for his abilities, Xia Li thought about his past. In fact, what he was best at was very simple, that was the perception derived from his powerful soul. Xia Li's advantage in the early days of Naruto was basically perception.

Because of his perception, he was able to pass the Flying Thunder God talent test so quickly. Of course, he didn't learn Flying Thunder God so quickly, but he passed the talent test quickly.

The same was true after he became the God of Death. He could easily sense the flow of spiritual energy in his soul and control it.

So, the ability of my Zanpakuto is probably related to perception?

Xia Li also made some speculations about the appearance and abilities of his Zanpakuto, and then continued to listen to the lecture because the teacher above was still going on.

"Don't underestimate the Shikai. Among the many Shinigami, not many can perform the Shikai. Even if you can perform the Shikai, even if you join the Gotei 13, you can probably become a chief officer instead of an ordinary soldier." said the teacher.

Although he didn't say too much, Xia Li understood that not all those who became Death Gods had Shikai, and the chief officer? The captain? In addition to the vice-captain and the captain in Xia Li's memory...

The position should be about the same, right?

But if we look at combat power, probably only the captain level ones are worth considering, right?

"Teacher!" At this time, Abarai Renji next to him raised his hand.

"Student, do you have any questions?" the teacher called Abarai Renji.

"Teacher, I would like to ask if there is any more powerful power above the Shikai!" asked Abarai Renji with shining eyes.

"Well, regarding this question, the teacher would like to remind you not to aim too high. During your time at the academy, you only need to master the Shikai. You can even skip a grade and join the Gotei 13 as an exception." said the teacher.

"I see." Abarai Renji scratched his head.

"However, it is not impossible to talk about it. The ability above Shikai is called Bankai. I heard that it is the second stage of liberation of Zanpakuto, which can release and use the ability of Zanpakuto more thoroughly and comprehensively." The teacher said according to the formula. After all, he himself did not have Bankai. It should be said that if he had Bankai, he would not come here to teach.

"Then how can one achieve Bankai?" Abarai Renji's eyes lit up. Just hearing the name made him sound so powerful.

"Well, teacher, I don't know. I have only opened the Shikai. If you open the Bankai, you will be qualified to become the captain of the Gotei 13." The teacher said with a little envy at this time.

"Teacher, neither?" Abarai Renji's eyes widened.

The teacher laughed, and then said, "Of course not. There are only a few who can successfully perform Bankai. Among the thousands of Shinigami in each era, only a few can successfully perform Bankai. And once you achieve Bankai, your name will be recorded forever in the history of Soul Society."

"Is it so difficult?" Abarai Renji also felt the pressure at this time.

"So don't aim too high. While you are a student, just think about how to get your first enlightenment." The teacher said, "Okay, sit down. I have some things to explain. After that, I can rent you the shallow fight you have been dreaming of."

"Remember, we are only renting it to you now. If you cannot join the Gotei 13 or the Kidōshu, then you still need to return this Asado to us."

After the teacher finished speaking, everyone present immediately looked serious, and no one wanted their Zanpakutō to be taken away.

Xia Li was not worried that his shallow attack would be taken back, but was just curious about how long it would take him to activate the Shikai.

Soon, the class came to an end, and it was time for the students to distribute their lessons, which they had been looking forward to.

Xia Li was not in a hurry to get it, there was no need. As a student of the Maou Spiritual Arts Academy, Asada would definitely not be without it.

After most people had taken their own daggers, Xia Li slowly walked up to the teacher and took out a standard dagger. All daggers were made from the same mold and there was no difference between them.

The moment Xia Li grasped the handle of Qianda's knife, Xia Li paused.

"Classmate?" The teacher looked at Xia Li, and at the other party's paused figure, and couldn't help but ask.

"Sorry, teacher, I'm a little excited." Xia Li explained.

"Well, I understand." The teacher nodded with a smile.

After Xia Li put away the shallow handle, he left. His expression was a little solemn when he left. The moment he held the shallow handle, he felt as if he was being spied on...

So, who is it?

Is there something wrong with the Zanpakutō?

Soon, Xia Li shook his head. No matter what, Zanpakuto must be used. How can one not learn the special system of this world?

As for the feeling of being spied on just now, I'll investigate what it was about later.

Moreover, Xia Li looked at his own shallow fight, feeling the power in it and the "will" to hide, and smiled. It seemed that it would not take him many days to complete his initial release.

After all, under his perception, the special will in the shallow strike had nowhere to hide.

However, because there are still some courses coming up, such as the Ghost Way and Flash Step courses, Xia Li is not in a hurry to infuse his spiritual power into the shallow strike to cleanse the shallow strike.

Xia Li put the rifle on his waist and followed the other three people.
