The person standing in front of Sora was stunned by these words and kept mumbling and mumbling trying to find their true meaning... Sora who knew who the person was didn't know what else to say to Hisagi for learning to control his Shikai....
He turned to leave trying to find a suitable opponent only to realize that this small stalling he had made all Vice Captain be booked for the matched.... having no alternative he turned back to Hisagi who still had a frown on his face.... He sighed and went closer...
Sora: "Oh great i lost my chance for a date with Matsumoto..."
??? : "A date???"
Sora: "And i don't like fighting guys at all!!!!!!"
??? : "Fight?? Date??? Guys???"
??? : "Oh you mean you wanted to fight her.... how come fights became Dates??"
Sora: "Well i thought i'll try my luck.... too bad she's taken..."
??? : "phhh xaxaxaxa can it be you didn't found someone to be tested....??"
Sora: "And who's fault is that??? By the way, your name....??"
??? : "Mine i guess?? I'm Vice Captain of the 9th Division... Shuhei Hisagi"
Sora looked at the serious Hisagi like he takes pride of his position, Hisagi looked back at him and for some reason, he thought that perhaps he will find an answer if they fought together...
Hisagi: "Then i'll be the one who will test you.... i also want to see your version of great power....."
After declaring that Hisagi will test him, Sora went and register under his name and then waited for others to finish their own selection and registrations....
It took around one hour to finish this and the first phase round one begun..... on the platform was Garo and Abarai Renji who bow to each other and when the bell rang the first opening Test will now begin.....
Garo didn't lose his cool and instant cast a Hado Arts by raising his hand towards Renji....
Garo: "<Hadō Arts 4 : Byakurai>"
A paled blue lighting was shoot out from his finger that he had raised with his hand leaving Renji a bit stunned that he could already instant cast, but that wasn't enough to stop him from dodging it...
At that moment Renji side stepped Garo used his <Shunpo> and vanished from where he was appearing behind Renji throwing another Hado...
Garo: "<Hadō Arts 31 : Shakkahō>"
It instantly engulfed Renji causing a loud explosion in the platform, The spectators were quite amazed by Garo who took the carefree attitude of Renji and launched an attack at Zero points....
Garo on the field felt otherwise.... He was shocked to feel that his fast attack didn't connect at all with his opponent, just as he was trying to figure out what happened... Renji appeared from within smokes...
Renji: "You have incredible battle instinct able to see all the details, so can you tell me what i used to counter your Hado Art before it hit me??"
Garo: "No sir i didn't see it...."
Renji: "It was a <Hado Arts 4> the same one you used to distract me but on a much smaller power making it difficult to sense it.... although Kido is not my forte i'm trying to improve even by the smallest amount as well... Now let's continue..."
They took battle positions again and started to fight again and again with each time Garo using different variations trying to gain the upper hand...
