When he was five years old, Lu Yi broke through to the Foundation Establishment Stage. That year, Lu Yi had two choices.
The first was to choose to be a commoner and inherit his parents 'business in the future. His parents were in the medicinal herbs business, and their business was not small. However, Lu Yi was not interested in it.
The second option was to enter a ninja school and become a Koba ninja after graduation. To be honest, Lu Yi had no interest in being a ninja either. Moreover, he did not think that the things taught in the ninja school would be of any help to his current cultivation.
However, he still chose to go to the Ninja School. The reason was simple. It was to hide the source of his strength.
Although Lu Yi was not afraid of anything, there were not many people in the entire Naruto World that he was afraid of. However, he did not want to cause trouble, especially since his parents were ordinary people. He could not implicate his parents because of his own relationship.
They were still weak and could only survive according to the rules set by others.
Lu Yi did not add any surnames when he registered his name. Instead, he only registered his first name.
This surname was too shameful for Lu Yi!
When his adoptive father found out, he did not blame him. Instead, he expressed his understanding. Because they also felt that their surnames were too weak. However, because his parents had obtained it, and he had been using it for so many years, he had gotten used to it. Because it did not sound good, he did not even ask his wife, who was Lu Yi's adoptive mother, to change her surname to his.
They only said one sentence to Lu Yi,""As long as you're our child, it doesn't matter what you're called!”
Lu Yi was extremely touched!
Anyway, Japanese surnames were very casual. Perhaps there really was someone with the surname Lu! Even if he didn't, Lu Yi could be considered an ancestor with the surname Lu.
After entering the school, Lu Yi did not deliberately show off. No one knew that Lu Yi's strength had already surpassed his form teacher.
Originally, Lu Yi had planned to continue like this until he graduated naturally. However, in less than half a year, bad news came. His parents were on their way back from purchasing medicinal herbs when they encountered mountain bandits and both died.
When Lu Yi received this news, he felt as if he had been struck by lightning. Although they were not his biological parents, they treated him as if he was their own, allowing Lu Yi to truly feel the love of his parents. He still wanted to study alchemy in the future so that they could live a long life. He did not expect that before he could fulfill his filial piety, they would leave first.
This news was told to him by a Koba Jounin. This Jounin had met Lu Yi's parents on his way back to the village after completing his mission. However, his parents had already been killed at that time. If he hadn't bought herbs from the store several times and knew Lu Yi's parents, Lu Yi wouldn't have known that his parents had been killed.
Not only did this Jounin bring this news to Lu Yi, but he also brought back his parents 'bodies. Lu Yi was very grateful to him, so he took out a sum of money to thank him. Even though the Jounin had repeatedly declined, Lu Yi still forced it on him.
This was because to a ninja, especially a Jounin, the lives of a few civilians had nothing to do with them. However, not only did this Jounin bring the news to Lu Yi, but he also brought the bodies of his parents back to prevent them from being exposed to the wilderness. Lu Yi had to thank her for everything.
Because of this sudden incident, Lu Yi applied for a few days off from school. Lu Yi's parents had no siblings, and their parents had passed away long ago. Therefore, Lu Yi could only do all this himself.
After his parents 'bodies were cremated, his ashes were buried in the cemetery, and then his parents' business was sold to the Nara family. The Nara Clan was quite kind. They did not cheat Lu Yi just because he was a child. Instead, they paid him more out of sympathy.
During this period of time, Lu Yi's performance was completely unlike a five-year-old child. Many adults might not be able to do as well as him. People who knew him said that it was because of his parents 'sudden death that the sensible Lu Yi suddenly matured.
Lu Yi could not be bothered with these words. After dealing with his parents 'funeral, Lu Yi applied to the form teacher for early graduation.
His homeroom teacher was called Yukiko Inoue. She was a 23-year-old ninja. She was usually very gentle to her students, but her looks and figure were ordinary. She was not very attractive.
When Inoue Sachiko heard that Lu Yi was here to apply for early graduation, she thought that she had heard wrongly and asked uncertainly,""Lu Yi, did Teacher mishear or did you say something wrong? You're actually here to apply for suspension, right?”
"Teacher Yukiko, you didn't hear wrongly, and I didn't say anything wrong. I'm here to apply for early graduation!”
The homeroom teacher finally came back to her senses and asked,"Lu Yi, I remember that no one in your family is a ninja, right?”
"Yes, sir!"
"You don't have any relatives or friends who are ninjas, right?”
"No, I haven't."
"And your grades are average in class.”
"Yes!"
"Do you know that the test for early graduation is usually actual combat?”
"I can roughly guess."
"Then why did you apply for early graduation?"
Inoue Yukiko's meaning was very obvious. For a student like Lu Yi who had no family background and was not a genius, it was unrealistic to apply for early graduation.
It was true that since the Ninja School was opened, there were many students who graduated early. However, most of them were from ninja families. It was rare for civilians to graduate early. This was especially true for Lu Yi, who had only been in school for less than a year.
"I can't wait to become a real ninja! And I'm confident that I'll pass the exam!”
When Inoue Sachiko heard this, her eyes widened. She was about to educate Lu Yi, but when she thought of the recent changes in Lu Yi's family, she softened and said gently,""Lu Yi, having confidence is a good thing, but you have to act according to your ability, understand? I know that you can't wait to become a real ninja, but you have to know that your opponent in the exam is an official Genin who has graduated for more than two years. Your strength is not something that your classmates in school can compare to.”
At this moment, Lu Yi actually had a trace of regret. He regretted hiding himself before. Wasn't it good to be a genius who was in the limelight? At the very least, this wouldn't happen now.
Although he knew that Inoue Sachiko was doing this for his own good, Lu Yi could only accept it and say,""Teacher Yuuko, you're also a chuunin, right?”
"Of course!"
"Then you can test me personally and see if I have the strength to graduate early!”
Inoue Sachiko was very surprised, but when she saw that there was no arrogance or arrogance in Lu Yi's eyes other than confidence, she muttered to herself,""Is he really a low-profile genius?”
Thinking of this, Yuko Inoue said,""Alright then! But let me make it clear first. If I think you're not strong enough to graduate early, I won't agree to your application.”
"Of course!"
"Follow me."
Inoue Sachiko brought Lu Yi to an empty space and said,""Let's do it here. Go ahead and attack. Teacher will only use physical techniques to defend.”
"Teacher, you have to be careful!"
A minute later, Lu Yi left the place, but Inoue Yukiko stood there in a daze, unable to regain her senses for a long time.
In Lu Yi's eyes, he had won without any suspense. However, in the eyes of Inoue Yukiko, she had lost in an inconceivable manner.
Less than thirty seconds had passed since the start of the fight, and this Chuunin teacher who had been on the battlefield had a knife placed on his neck by a commoner student who had only been in school for less than half a year. However, if it was really a life and death duel, she would have been beheaded.
"Genius?" Inoue Yukiko recalled Lu Yi's clean and neat attack just now and could not think of any other adjectives.
Although she was a little disappointed that she had lost to her own student, the thought that she had single-handedly raised such a genius swept away her disappointment and filled her with pride.
According to the agreement, Inoue Sachiko submitted Lu Yi's graduation application to Naruto. Flying Ape Sun Slash was very surprised that there was actually someone who applied to graduate in less than a year after entering the school. Furthermore, this person was even a commoner.
However, Flying Ape Sun Slash still approved Lu Yi's graduation application. He set the time for the exam to be three days later at 10 AM. Moreover, he already had plans in his heart to personally see where this student's confidence came from that day.
Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Before heading to the designated examination location, Lu Yi specially made a trip to the blacksmith shop.
"Master, is my sword done?”
"Alright, alright! Are you satisfied?" The blacksmith took down a sword from the wall and said.
This was a typical Han sword, about 60 centimeters long. To an adult, this could only be considered a short sword. However, for Lu Yi, who was only five years old and only 1.1 meters tall, this sword was just the right length.
Lu Yi tested it out. The hardness, toughness, and sharpness of this sword were all good. Moreover, its ability to withstand his true energy was also good. It was a good sword.
However, no matter how good the sword was, it was still an ordinary item. It could only be used for this period of time. When he reached the Golden Core stage, he would be able to summon true fire and refine his own weapons.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the examination hall, Lu Yi found that Inoue Sachiko was already waiting for him at the door. She looked very anxious. As soon as she saw Lu Yi, she quickly ran over and complained,""Lu Yi, what took you so long?"
"Teacher, there are still ten minutes before the exam starts," Lu Yi said casually. If I'm not in a hurry, why are you in a hurry?”
"Lord Naruto is here personally!" Yuuko Inoue said solemnly.”
"Eh?" Lu Yi was surprised. Lord Naruto was busy every day, yet he still had the time to watch an ordinary student's graduation exam?”
"What are you talking about?" Yuuko Inoue said unhappily. The students of the Ninja Academy represented Koba's future, and Naruto placed a lot of importance on them! And you're not an ordinary student. You're a genius who applied to graduate less than half a year after entering school!”
"That's right!" Lu Yi smiled. I'm a genius! So why are you so nervous, teacher? You have to be calm! As a teacher, your performance is not even as good as mine, a five-year-old student!”
"You know you're only five years old?" Yuuko Inoue said speechlessly. Why didn't I know you were so mature before?”
"Humans…will grow up quickly when they encounter some things.”
As soon as Lu Yi said this, Inoue Sachiko immediately thought of the death of Lu Yi's parents and quickly apologized,""Lu Yi, I'm sorry! Sensei…Sensei was worried that you would not perform well because of Lord Naruto's presence. After all, you are the first student under Sensei to graduate early!”
Lu Yi smiled and said," Teacher Yukiko, you should know my strength. Even if I don't perform well, can I still lose?"”
"If you're not serious, you might really lose!" Yuuko Inoue said seriously.”
"Huh?" Lu Yi stopped in his tracks and asked curiously. What's wrong?"
"As far as I know, your original opponent was attacked on the way back to the village. Although he is fine, he is no longer suitable to participate in your exam. And the village can't find a suitable Genin for the time being, so your opponent this time is a Chuunin!”
