All along, the rules of the Soul Cleansing Court have centered around Room Forty-six, which consists of forty Sages and six Judges, positions that have always been held by Nobles.
Though nominally, these Sages should sever family ties, it is purely in name only.
From the inception of the Guardian Court Thirteen Divisions to the present, no Captain has ever been promoted to the ranks of Room Forty-six, which, in Tao Yu's eyes, appears to be a rather ludicrous structure.
It even has a feeling reminiscent of the Ming Dynasty, where civil officials controlled military generals.
Although the Kuchiki Family, the head of the Nobles, controls the Sixth Division, and the Shihouin Family has control over the Execution Army of the Second Division, possessing considerable power,
in comparison to the overall strength of the Guardian Court Thirteen Divisions within the Soul Society, the Nobles' side is still lacking.
