(Today's update is delivered in advance again!) The mistakes in the chapter have basically been corrected. If there are still any, it's because I didn't notice them.。。~ O(Empyrean_Empyrean)O Everyone, please give me some flowers ~)
This was not a simple examination. What these Genin needed to do now was to use camouflage and concealment techniques or use their own unique abilities to collect information. The process and methods could not be too clumsy. Otherwise, failure in the examination was a small matter, but failure on the battlefield was a matter of life and death and the interests of the group! This wasn't child's play! It would not work if they relied on simple peeking or plagiarism. More than forty invigilators would be in charge of different areas. In this way, each invigilator would be in charge of more than ten Genins. Such a degree of strictness was almost unprecedented!
What will you do? Feng Hua Temple thought maliciously in his heart, playing with a thousand books in his hand. The Genins had seen her actions earlier. They did not know what she was going to do with the Chikubo, so they were all frightened.
Looking at the backup test paper in his hand, Fuuhana Temple thought for a while. Haruno Sakura and Shikamaru should be able to answer such questions. Harashima's Demon and Underwater Ripple should be no problem, and Hatata should be about the same. Among the students with better results, only Sasuke could not do it. As for Naruto, this simple guy could not master such a comprehensive question that gathered many uncertain factors and unknown variables. There were several ways and changes in each step of such a question. Moreover, he had to consider everything. Just writing it was troublesome enough.
Looking up, Haruno Sakura seemed to have realized her purpose this time. Sasuke's reaction was not bad. This time, there were more sounds of answering questions. The surroundings were filled with rustling sounds. This kind of movement was undoubtedly a kind of torture to the ears of those who had yet to realize the true purpose of the exam. They would constantly struggle in their hearts. Their cerebral cortexes kept telling them that many people had started to write, but they still did not know how! However, there were also some people who planned to cheat but did not use the ninja method. They were obviously stealing glances at the people around them.
Were they idiots? Even an ordinary teacher would notice such an obvious behavior, not to mention that the invigilators were elite ninjas!？Feng Hua Temple showed no mercy to this kind of idiot. There was no need to record his name or give him five chances. This kind of person would definitely be killed in an instant on the battlefield! Not only did they have slow reactions, they did not even have the most basic awareness. How could they waste so many opportunities in a ninja battle? Take Naruto for example. Although he had yet to realize the purpose of this exam, he did not engage in low-level plagiarism because he knew that he would definitely be eliminated!
He raised his hand and shot a Chihon straight at the ninja. In the blink of an eye, the Chihon pierced the top half of the table with a ding. The Genin, who was already feeling guilty, was shocked and even threw his pen to the ground. Such a person was actually a ninja? Shaking his head helplessly, Feng Hua Temple said,""The one with a thousand books on the table, please leave. There are also two other teammates!”After saying that, the ninja stood up dejectedly. The other two also stood up and left unwillingly.
Even though they did not pass the preliminary exam, the ninjas who were eliminated would be given a make-up exam led by the secretary Hideaki. The make-up exam was to test if the Genin who did not pass the preliminary exam possessed any other special abilities. If they did, they would be given another special test to advance to the Chuunin level. If they did not, they would be required to come back after a year. The Chuunin exam was held twice a year, so those who did not even pass the make-up exam were actually banned from taking the exam twice. After all, such a weak strength did not have the qualifications to enter the examination hall. He could only continue to train.
There were a total of 153 groups for reference this time. The first round of the exam would have to reduce at least 50 groups, which was more than 150 people!
It was really an exam with an extremely high elimination rate.
"The twenty-third is disqualified.”
"Number forty-three and twenty-seven are disqualified.”
A ninja who couldn't accept such reality slammed the table and stood up. He said angrily,""What right do you have to say that I cheated five times? There are so many people present for the examination, and you think you can make such a comment with just a few dozen invigilators?？You must be joking!"
Under his influence, a few people stood up one after another to complain, and a thick smell of gunpowder spread in the field.
A few invigilators controlled these violent examinees. The Wind Flower Temple said," That's not right. Not all of them are Chuunins. There are at least three Jounins here. The first one is your main examiner, Ibiki Mori. The second one is Miyazawa Tsuru of the Wind Flower Temple. The third one is Kimoto Flowering Tower, who is behind you. As we have been Jounins for many years, your cheating will be easily discovered. " In addition, we didn't deliberately favor or go easy on you. Every exam is strictly carried out according to the rules. If you're not satisfied, you can file a complaint in the name of Ninja Village! "Also, there are many examinees in the field, but there are also many invigilators. We are basically responsible for more than ten people each! This is the most basic arithmetic problem. Don't tell me you haven't even mastered this yet!？”
Those people were rendered speechless by such words and could only leave the examination hall unwillingly. Just like that, Kunai or Qianshu kept appearing on the examinees 'tables, and they were eliminated one after another.
Feng Hua Temple was feeling extremely good now. Bullying these ninjas from different countries, and they couldn't complain! Although it was very bad, she was not here to cause trouble. Soon, a few more people were announced to be eliminated. The atmosphere in the examination hall became more and more tense as the number of Genin who left increased.
Had they already started? Fuka Temple glanced at Ibiki Mori, who nodded slightly. It seemed that she was quite satisfied with those people who were more skilled in concealment. Sandstorm Ikaro controlled the Chakra sand to form a third eye, Kankuro used puppets, and the Ninja got the answer based on the sound of writing due to their special sensitivity to sound. Inuga used Ninja Akamaru, and Aomiru Shino used bugs to reflect the answer through the mirror controlled by Tian Tian. Tian Tian then reflected the answer to Rock Lee, Sasuke copied the actions of others through Shura Eye, and Ino got the answer through the secret technique of turning the heart. All in all, everyone had their own methods of obtaining information. For a moment, the Genins in the examination hall were like eight immortals crossing the sea, displaying their divine powers. It was extremely exciting!
Although the invigilators could detect their actions, this was due to environmental factors. If such a method was applied to missions or battlefields, it would definitely work because this was the ninja's detection method!
However, there were still some ninjas who were too obvious and received a message from Senhon from Fuka Temple, and were kicked out of the game.
Time passed bit by bit, and nearly twenty groups of ninjas had been chased out of the arena. There were not many thousand books left in the hands of Fenghua Temple. Naruto still looked like he was in pain. It seemed that he didn't have to expect him to discover the purpose of the first step of the test. Such a person would not discover it at all and would not dare to cheat in any way. He really didn't know if he was stupid or honest!？However, in order not to implicate the people around him and his companions, he rejected Hatata's good intentions. From a certain perspective, this guy was a very kind-hearted person who would think of others. When Haruno Sakura was serious, she was not bad. She did not have her usual infatuation and looked like a girl that people admired. This was the standard of Fenghua Temple. How one looked at a person was not only based on their strength and ability, but also their usual behavior, character, attitude, and conduct. These were all very important. No matter how good they looked or how capable they were, they were just a vase for display. As a ninja, such people were often the first to die!
As expected of the fourth generation Naruto's son. In terms of character, he did not disgrace his father's name at all! How can a tiger father have a dog son? Naruto's arrogance and impatience were just inherited from his mother, Kushina Uzumaki.
It was said that the eldest son of the branch family, Ningji Hinata, was a very talented and powerful seedling. It was a pity that such a genius was bound to a caged bird by the so-called seal specially added to the branch family for no reason! It seemed that he should find some time to think of a way to thoroughly nurture this potential talent. Such a person's future achievements would definitely not be inferior to Uchiha Sasuke. Both of them were similarly talented descendants of the Blood Successor Family, and they would also be the future pillars of Koba! Feng Hua Temple was thinking about this, but they didn't know if there was a way to break the seal. In addition, the research on the Yin Yang Doctrine's sealing technique had almost produced results. After nearly ten years of research, he had finally perfected and mastered the most powerful twelve types of the Yin Yang Doctrine's sealing technique. According to the records, this unaltered sealing technique could seal great demons such as the Black Heavenly Dog, Hundred-Eyed Demon, Two-tailed Cat, and Civet Cat Guardian Crane. Although he didn't know if Nekomata and Guardian Crane were the current Tail Beasts, this sealing technique must be very powerful! Perhaps he could use this sealing spell on Naruto's Corpse Ghost Seal, which could be considered as double insurance!
" Number fifty-three is disqualified."
"Number Sixty-One is disqualified. Number 33 was disqualified. Number 9 is disqualified."
The people on the field were constantly being chased out. At this time, Kanjiulang reported that he wanted to leave. The puppet that was being watched by Feng Hua Temple disguised as an invigilator and led him out. So it was his puppet! His disguise was really good, but did he not think that the examiners had met each other before the invigilation and were familiar with each other? How could a person who had snuck in so obviously not be discovered!？
It was already 4:15 in the afternoon. It had been 45 minutes since the start of the exam. The time for the first step of the test was up. The time for answering the questions was over. Now, it was time to announce the tenth question! The number of people on the field had decreased by nearly 50 people.
Yoshiki Mori took a look at the ninjas who were left behind. It seemed that there were quite a number of powerful Genin this time! After some consideration, he said,"" Alright, let's announce the tenth question now!" He paused for a moment before continuing,"Before that, I want to add a rule to the last question…"
The door was pushed open, and Kankuro walked in with the disguised puppet invigilator. He did not expect to be met with Mori Ibiki's sharp gaze when he entered, and he was slightly stunned. When he was exposed, he revealed a surprised expression. It seemed that he really did not expect his puppet to be discovered!
"Forget it, sit back down. " Then let me explain, this is…" After pausing maliciously to keep people in suspense, Ibi Xi was actually very happy in his heart. He was best at and passionate about torturing people to test their endurance. He rolled his eyes and continued," A rule that makes people despair!”
As the leader of the professional level of interrogation and interrogation, it was easy for this guy to toy with these Genin! The Fenghua Temple shook its head helplessly. The real show was about to begin. The most crucial moment of this exam had arrived! Perhaps…Senior Ibi Xi had a tendency to abuse, and lived for the sake of abuse!？He cursed maliciously in his heart and could not help but reveal a wicked smile on his face.
"First of all, you have to choose whether to accept the tenth question.”
"If you choose not to accept it, then the candidate will immediately get a zero, which means that you have failed. Moreover, the two people in the same group will also be disqualified.”
As soon as these words were said, the examinees present began to clamor. Such a rule was completely confusing! From the looks of it, he could only accept the tenth question. Wasn't it obvious? Then why was there such a rule? This was completely unnecessary, because choosing not to accept would implicate the two people in the same group.
"Moreover, there is another rule. Those who chose to accept but did not answer correctly would forever lose the right to participate in the Chuunin exam!”
The effect of this sentence was like water entering a pot of boiling oil. The examinees in the venue immediately exploded and began to complain. "How can there be such a bastard rule? Some of the people present had participated in the Chuunin exam more than once!”The one who stood up was Inujiya, and even Akamaru shouted indignantly.
Yoshihibi Sen laughed proudly and said,""It's your bad luck. I was the one who set the rules this year. But didn't I also give you a chance to turn back? Those who were not confident could choose not to accept it and wait for the next year or the year after.”
His evil laughter echoed in the unusually quiet classroom. The invigilators who understood the truth tried their best to hold back their laughter, but it was also unusually difficult...
This rule was really powerful. As long as one person in a group of three gave up on the tenth question, the entire group would fail. However, the person who chose to accept but did not answer correctly could only be a kounin for the rest of his life. No matter which choice they chose, it was hard for them to accept. Under such pressure, these Genin must not be feeling good, right? Choosing the former to drag his companions down while choosing the latter to kill his own path, only this perverted fellow could think of such a choice!
"Then from now on, those who choose not to accept the tenth question can raise their hands and leave after recording the number!”
Everyone had a pained expression on their faces. They didn't know what to do when faced with such a choice. Therefore, they could only choose to give up and accept the lesser consequences. Therefore, one after another, they stood up to give up. Even so, they still did not have a relaxed expression on their faces, because they had implicated the other two partners. The partners who could have passed the exam this time had lost the qualification to take the exam this year because of them. This kind of thing was also extremely painful in their hearts.
With such a ruckus, nearly 60 candidates from more than 20 groups left. In this first round of the exam, 195 people were eliminated from the 459 reference ninjas, which was 65 groups. The elimination rate reached more than 42%! If it wasn't for the fact that the level of Genin participating in the exam this time was much higher than in previous years, the number of people taking the first exam alone would probably be less than half!
Under the shocked gazes of the people around him, Naruto raised his trembling hand. After a few seconds of silence, he slammed his hand on the table and said something that surprised everyone! It was indeed Naruto's style. He always talked about his goal of becoming Naruto. He usually looked carefree, but his heart was sensitive and fragile. Growing up in a difficult environment, he cultivated his own strength and optimism. The cheerful Naruto had his own way of thinking. Even if he was a Genin, he could still become Naruto. If it was foolish to place too much importance on his companions, he would rather be a fool for the rest of his life. If he could save his friends with his own life, he would rather destroy himself! Naruto was such a person. He had his own unique thoughts and his own understanding. He followed his own thoughts and moved forward. He would not think too much or waver. He just wanted to keep moving forward and accompany his hard-earned companions! These guys were all hot-blooded youths with an excessive sense of justice. They only valued bonds and beliefs. There was no political color in their eyes. There were no ugly interests. They simply lived and moved forward towards their goals. To put it bluntly, even if they wanted to participate in politics and gain any benefits, it was impossible. As ninjas, this identity limited them to being tools used by politicians. However, although the ninjas were the military power of the country, their status was equal to the country. Even if the politicians had the power to control them, they did not have the ability to truly subdue them! Ninjas weren't just a type of power. Every single one of them was alive and had their own thoughts, lives, beliefs, and pursuits! Then perhaps these guys could one day reach the level where even politicians could not control them!
Inspired by Naruto's heroic words, the candidates who had been shaken in their hearts calmed down. The atmosphere and effect created by Ibiki also disappeared. Ibiki Mori and all the other examiners exchanged glances and nodded in agreement. Thus, he announced the final results of the examination. This result made all the examinees who stayed behind feel as if they were still in a dream. This excited news came too suddenly! Nibi Sen smiled happily, revealing her bright white teeth. Her expression was one of pride. After explaining everything clearly, the Genin who finally understood everything felt like they had been reborn. This was the feeling of seeing the light of day again!？
Under Mori Ibiki's shocking attack, everyone understood the importance of the contents of the examination and the scope of the examination. Finally, the first round of the examination came to a successful end. The only shortcoming was that there were too many people who passed the examination.
" If you have already become a Chuunin and your mission is to obtain a secret document, the enemy's numbers, abilities, and other military strength are unknown, and the enemy is likely to have set up traps, will you accept the mission? Was he afraid of losing his life, or was he afraid that he might get his companions into trouble, so he didn't accept dangerous missions? The answer was no! Some missions had to be accepted no matter how dangerous they were. Being able to give courage to his companions and the ability to escape from a difficult situation was the ability that a captain should have. I believe that people who don't dare to gamble their lives at a time like this and place their hopes on the uncertain future of next year, whose hearts are wavering and can't grasp the opportunity, such trash without willpower, have no right to become Chuunin! Those of you who chose to take the exam can be said to have passed the difficulty of the tenth question. You should also be able to overcome the various difficulties that will appear in the future. The entrance has been broken through, and the first round of the Chuunin selection exam is over. I hope you can continue to work hard!”Yoshihiko Mori's words were truly inspiring, and it really made their blood boil. These Genins were so happy that they couldn't wait to accept those dangerous missions.
How many people would be eliminated in the next screening examination?
