Adding in the reward from Yoruichi's completed sword technique mission, Sora had obtained a total of 106,000 general experience points!
His current Spiritual Pressure was level 75. From level 75 to 80, each level required 30,000 points.
He chose to invest 90,000 points into it, raising his Spiritual Pressure to level 78.
He was now, even among the seated officers of the Gotei 13, a Shinigami with outstanding Spiritual Pressure.
Just like Kurumatani Yūjirō, whom he met in Karakura Town, he is the 3rd seat of Squad 13, and Sora's current Spiritual Pressure is about the same as his. However, Sora's actual combat strength is far superior to Kurumatani's, as his swordsmanship is much stronger and he has the advantage of numerous abilities.
The remaining experience was not enough to level up his Spiritual Pressure again, so Sora decided to invest it in Kidō.
The high-level Kidō he had used in the battle, "Hiryū Gekizoku Shinten Raihō," was quite useful. It had the advantage of extremely fast attack speed and long range.
Even from a distance of two to three thousand meters, it had been able to stagger the Great Hollow.
However, to continue upgrading high-level Kidō, he first had to raise his base Kidō skill level. There were also advanced techniques like "Eishō Haki" (Incantation Abandonment) and "Kōjutsu Eishō" (Post-Release Incantation) that required a higher base skill.
If he could instantly cast Hadō #88, its speed advantage would be maximized.
He invested the remaining experience into Kidō, raising it from level 39 to 53. Once his Kidō level surpassed 50, two new abilities appeared on his panel.
[Eishō Haki (Beginner): When casting Kidō, you can omit the incantation for low-level spells (Hadō and Bakudō #1-30). This will reduce the spell's power. The proficiency of the Kidō must be at least Proficient to use this technique.]
[Kōjutsu Eishō (Beginner): When using Eishō Haki, you can add the incantation after casting the spell to enhance its power. The proficiency of the Kidō must be at least Mastered to use this technique.]
The normal way to cast Kidō is to first recite the incantation and then release the spell; this is how you cast a Kidō at its full power. If you omit the incantation to save time, the spell's power is reduced.
But with the "Post-Release Incantation" technique, you can first cast the spell without an incantation and then add it afterward, and the resulting spell will still be at full power. This gives a Shinigami the ability to both cast instantly and maintain full power.
After allocating his experience, Sora continued to check his other gains. The first-time exam reward had given him another new ability:
[Premonition of Danger: Your sixth sense becomes sharper, making it easier to perceive danger.]
The explanation was brief; he would have to test its specific effects later.
In addition to the ability and experience, five of his skills had been upgraded: the sword techniques Ryūkō, Four-Directional Shungeki, Raikiri, and Sekichō, as well as the Hadō spell Byakurai.
He now had another Grandmaster-level skill; after this boost, "Ryūkō" had reached that level.
It was worth noting that after the battle in Karakura Town, his "Raikiri" had already reached the Proficient level, so this proficiency reward had raised it to Mastered.
At the Mastered level, "Raikiri" would no longer cause self-inflicted damage from the lightning! High-intensity combat was a shortcut to improving one's strength.
Even his Zanjutsu and Shunpo levels had each increased by one.
Sora's basic panel had undergone a significant change:
Basic Abilities:
Spiritual Pressure: LV 78
Zanjutsu: LV 61
Kidō: LV 53
Hakuda: LV 15
Shunpo: LV 51
He felt that his "Born Berserker" ability was also close to being fully activated. One or two more high-intensity battles should be enough.
After taking stock of his gains, he sensed Batsunsai's Spiritual Pressure; she had already gone to her room to rest.
Sora had just managed to calm her down from her desire to kill Shin Kasumiōji. Dealing with him would not be easy; the Kasumiōji were an upper noble family.
To act without evidence would not only make an enemy of their clan, but Central 46 would likely unite to punish them.
For now, he needed to develop steadily and not rashly make so many enemies.
Moreover, given Batsunsai's current physical condition, it would be difficult for her to wipe out the Kasumiōji family without taking damage herself. He didn't want Batsunsai to take that risk.
Sora quietly left the dojo. He needed to gather intelligence on Shin Kasumiōji.
His Zanpakutō's ability was perfect for this. Just as Batsunsai had said, it was well-suited for the Stealth Force.
By using his ability to move through shadows, the Kasumiōji family's guards would have a hard time detecting him.
He just needed to place a few "monitoring points" in the shadows of their mansion.
