Chapter 96: Final Level Screening

Xiao Li also noticed Naruto. Just when he was about to explain, Neji coughed lightly, making Xiao Li swallow back what he wanted to say.

Sasuke saw the clue, but he didn't say anything. Instead, he nodded to Neji and said, "Let's go, Neji, don't waste time."

Damn, you ruined my good plan, Neji thought with a headache.

He originally planned to appear weak and let others think they were easy to bully. That way, other ninjas would not unite to deal with them first. When the time was right and others had almost been defeated, they would come out to pick the fruits. This way, they would be able to feel a little more relaxed.

This is a very normal tactical arrangement. As a ninja, it doesn't mean you have to fight head-on. You have to master all kinds of strategies such as sneak attacks and assassinations. You can choose not to use them, but you cannot fail to understand them.

Otherwise, when others use these tricks against you, you won't even know how you died.

Seeing Sasuke and the others walking away, Neji, Rock Lee and Tenten followed them. They really couldn't waste any more time. There was still about half an hour left before the first exam. Staying here would not help. They might as well take advantage of this time to enter the examination room and familiarize themselves with the environment.

The crowd was confused. What was the point of wasting time? Wasn't the exam room right here? As long as they beat back the two people blocking the door, couldn't they just go in?

The senior students guarding the door looked at each other, smiled without saying anything, and watched the backs of the people leaving, as if they had discovered something interesting.

In fact, they are not senior students, but ninjas from the village. They are also the invigilators during the Chunin Exams, responsible for maintaining order in the examination room and screening out some unqualified candidates.

Being a ninja is a very dangerous thing. The stronger you are and the higher the level of the mission you perform, the higher the possibility of encountering danger.

Many people think that being a ninja is a high-end profession. Once you become one, you can protect the village and achieve financial freedom.

This is true, but not everyone is suitable to be a ninja. Many people rush into the ninja school and sign up to learn how to become a ninja without thinking too much.

During the years in school, they do not have to perform tasks, but only need to complete various courses and do basic training. When the time is up, they can graduate successfully. After passing some simple tests, they can be led by the teachers assigned to them to perform low-level tasks.

Perhaps during the period of studying in school, some people dropped out due to various reasons. Those who persisted thought that it was just training and there was no real danger to their lives. They gritted their teeth and persevered. After the hardship, there would be sweetness. When they become official ninjas in the future, their good days would come.

I have to say that they in peacetime really cannot be compared with their seniors in wartime. Their ideas are different. The seniors wanted to become ninjas to resist foreign enemies, while they wanted to become ninjas, live a good life, and show off in front of others.

The people above may have noticed this, so they stipulated that ninjas who participate in the Chunin Exam must have performed many missions and have a certain amount of experience.

Not only that, after the candidates are determined, they will also arrange for other people to secretly test the candidates. Only if you pass the test will you be eligible to take part in the Chunin Exam.

Please note that being eligible does not mean that you can actually participate.

The two of them guarding the door are the last hurdle. They use magic to change the house number on the wall at the door, turning 201 into 301. The real examination room is in 301. Every candidate knows this, and they will receive a notice in advance.

Then use words to discourage those who lack confidence, for example, talk to the candidates about the responsibilities they need to bear and the dangers they may encounter after becoming a Chunin, etc.

Perhaps their team leader has talked to them about these things, but the effect of speaking from their own people is different from that from speaking from outsiders.

In addition, they have always been carrying out the lowest-level tasks, just like when Naruto and others first started, they were looking for cats, dogs, lost items, doing farm work and the like. These kinds of tasks are not too complicated or difficult, and there is no life-threatening danger. For them, who have never really come into contact with the ninja world, it is impossible for them to imagine the real life of ninjas based on hearsay and imagination alone.

The purpose of the two invigilators is to persuade those who overestimate their abilities to return. If they cannot take part in this year's Chunin Exam, they can take part in the next one, since the Chunin Exam is held every year anyway.

If they still can't succeed in the next session, then they can try the next session. It won't be too late to participate until they have accumulated enough experience and realized what a ninja is.

After all, it is not easy to train a ninja. It takes several years. Talented ones may not need that long, but those with average qualifications account for the majority. The latter are the cornerstone of the ninja village and the key to measuring the strength of a ninja village.

The levels and screenings are not meant to deny them, but to give them the opportunity to choose again. Perhaps some people are hit too hard and completely give up the profession of ninja. This is also a good thing, at least it is better than dying in a battle in the future.

What's more, the levels they set are not difficult. Anyone who can get here has some strength.

The illusion is just a very low-level illusion, so low that it cannot be any lower. The two invigilators just changed the house number and did not change anything else. When you go upstairs, pay a little attention to the steps under your feet, and you will find that this is the second floor, not the third floor.

If you can't even see through this, then go back. There's no need to continue. Go back and train for another two and a half years, and then come back to participate.

In other words, candidates who are still lingering at the door have been eliminated before they even take the exam.

"Why do you want to ruin my plan?" Neji asked in a deep voice after taking a few quick steps to catch up with Sasuke and the other two in front of him.

Naturally, he was asking about Sasuke. Just as he was the smartest person in Team Gai, Sasuke was also the smartest person in Team 7. Sakura was usually fine, but once she met Sasuke, she was at a loss and followed Sasuke's lead. She nodded in agreement with everything Sasuke said.

Naruto? It doesn't matter if Naruto doesn't mention it. If you ask him for advice, be careful that he will lead you into trouble.

Sasuke still had that expressionless face. He was always like this when he wasn't showing any emotion. "No need. When we unite, we are the strongest combination."

He knew what Neci was talking about. It was okay to show weakness, but there were certain risks. If you had the strength, you could do so. If you didn't have the strength, others would really treat you as a soft persimmon. It was not impossible that they would get rid of you first and then deal with others.

"Uncle has also told you about the situation of the Chunin Exam. If we unite, we can sweep away any other opponents."

If other candidates heard what Sasuke said, they might think that Sasuke was arrogant, but Sasuke was not arrogant at all, he was telling the truth.

Once they unite, they will definitely be a nightmare for other candidates.

For physical skills, we have Rock Lee, who can do close combat and attack, and for defense and reconnaissance, we have Neji, and with him, others can forget about sneak attacks. Tiantian is a paying player, and has a large number of weapons that can carry out large-scale attacks. Sasuke's Sharingan can see through other people's movements and give advance warnings. Naruto can take the damage and just go up and beat them up. Sakura has been reading medical books for a while, and although she doesn't know medical ninjutsu yet, she has no problem with simple bandaging, so she is considered half a medic.

That’s it, how do other candidates fight?

Except for the person Ye Feng said needs attention, no one else can help.

Neji pondered for a while and nodded: "Okay, we can join forces for the second exam, and the rest depends on our individual abilities."

The corners of Sasuke's mouth moved, which could be considered a smile in return: "I am looking forward to fighting with you."

Sasuke was a little excited, he urgently needed an opponent to test the results of his efforts in the past period of time. Since his Sharingan was upgraded, he had not fought with anyone else. He was busy with the cashier during the day, and at night he took advantage of the limited time before going to bed to familiarize himself with his three-magatama Sharingan.

The Three-magatama Sharingan brought him a huge boost in strength. Not only did his chakra increase dramatically, but the ninjutsu he cast, even if it was just a big fireball, was hotter and more powerful than before.

The sudden surge of chakra was beyond his expectation, but it was reasonable when he thought about it carefully. Chakra was originally composed of physical energy and mental energy. The upgrade of Sharingan led to the improvement of mental energy, and the improvement of mental energy led to the improvement of chakra. If his physical fitness was not strong enough, this wave of surge would be even greater.

It's just that he has been training alone during this period of time, and he doesn't know how much his strength has improved. Neci is a good opponent, and he is looking forward to meeting Neci in a battle.

Although Ye Feng had warned him before not to reveal the existence of his Three-magatama Sharingan, and to avoid using it if possible, and to root it out completely if used, Sasuke agreed, because he knew that his strength was not enough, and exposing it would attract many people's covetousness. He did not forget that someone in the village had been collecting their Sharingan.

However, the surge in chakra alone is enough to deal with most of the candidates in this classroom.

Hmm? It doesn't seem right. Aren't they all people of the same age, or people of similar age? Why do I see so many people in their twenties or thirties in this classroom? Sasuke frowned and thought.

If Ye Feng knew what he was thinking, he would definitely complain that ninjas mature early and look mature. If you don't believe me, just look at your brother, a guy who is only sixteen or seventeen years old and not even an adult. People would believe that he is twenty-six or twenty-seven.

Just as Sasuke was observing the situation in the classroom, a figure hugged him from behind, put his arms around his neck, and said excitedly: "Sasuke-kun, you are so slow. I have been waiting with great anticipation when I thought about meeting Sasuke-kun whom I haven't seen for a long time."

Sasuke finally broke down, and the calm expression on his face could no longer be maintained. His face was full of helplessness. If the person behind him wasn't an acquaintance, he would have done a roundhouse kick and kicked him.

Still want to get close to him? Impossible!

When he was still studying at the Ninja School, he couldn't do anything about the person behind him. When other girls saw him, they would just watch from afar, and even if they approached him to talk to him, they would not touch him.

Sakura was better. When she touched him, it was either when he was unable to resist or when she was too excited and couldn't control herself.

But the people behind him were different, they would take advantage of him whenever they got the chance, especially in front of Sakura.

He had resisted, but it was no use. The people behind him simply wouldn't listen. They were all classmates, and he couldn't take action except during training. He could only hide when possible.

He can’t hide today. Everyone is in the same classroom. Where can he hide?

As soon as Sakura saw who was hugging Sasuke, she got furious. This guy was her biggest rival in love. Veins popped out on her forehead. Pointing at the person, Sakura shouted, "Stay away from Sasuke, you fat pig Ino!"

Yamanaka Ino and Sakura have been fighting for Sasuke for so long, they are old rivals, so how could she be afraid of Sakura's scolding? She immediately fought back: "Hey, isn't this Sakura? Your forehead is still the same size, Sakura is ugly."

"What did you say? You wild boar, who are you calling ugly?" Sakura was furious. If Naruto hadn't stopped her, she would have taken action.

"Whoever answers is the one who gets to answer, you ugly bastard with a wide forehead! Lol~" Ino said provocatively, with one hand around Sasuke's shoulders and the other hand pulling down her eyelids and sticking out her tongue, hiding behind Sasuke with half of her body exposed.

This provocative action made Sakura go crazy.

"What? Do you want to take part in this troublesome exam too?" Nara Shikamaru, who had a pineapple haircut, asked lazily.

Generally speaking, wherever Ino is, Shikamaru is there, and also accompanying him is Akimichi Chouji, who is always eating snacks, is fat, and has a forehead protector that looks like underwear.

The three of them are in the same class and also form a group, the 'Pig, Deer, and Butterfly' group.

The Ino-Shika-Cho combination has been famous for a long time. Not only them, but also their previous generation and the generation before that. As early as the Warring States Period when Konoha Village had not yet been established, the three clans had already reached an alliance, and the Ino-Shika-Cho combination has been passed down to them from generation to generation.

The members of the Ino-Shika-Cho group have a very good relationship in each generation, and they are almost inseparable. In such an important occasion as the Chunin Exam, since Yamanaka Ino shows up, Nara Shikagai and Akimichi Chouji will naturally appear as well.

So Naruto was not surprised at all, leaving Sakura behind and greeting Shikamaru: "Hello, stupid Shikamaru, and Choji."
