The next day, all the Genins who had come to take the Chuunin exam gathered in the Forest of Death in Muye. The exam was divided into two parts. The first was a survival battle, which trained the ninjas to survive in the cruel conditions and to snatch the resources of the place to replenish themselves. The second was a battle. No matter how strong one's survival was, one could not become a Chuunin without strength. Although the Unkillable Cockroach sounded very powerful, in reality, humans could kill a whole group of them with a single stomp.
The Forest of Death, which had always been deserted, was now filled with people. Genins from all the villages had arrived, and they gathered in groups of three to five to discuss the matter. Riwawa Fengshui Sect and Kushina chose an empty space in a corner to stand together, waiting for the examiner to arrive.
Not long after, the examiner came over. It was Orochimaru. He was the examiner for this survival battle. After passing through all the examinees, Orochimaru came to the front gate of the Forest of Death, which was opposite all the examinees. When they saw Orochimaru standing still, all the examinees shut their mouths and looked at Orochimaru.
Orochimaru had a smile on his face, but because of his snake-like face, this smile did not make people feel comfortable. Instead, it made people feel a chill. Inadvertently, Orochimaru saw the three people standing in the corner, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes. However, he quickly averted his eyes and looked at the examinees below. He said indifferently," I don't need to say anything more. Everyone should know that I am the invigilator of this exam. My name is Orochimaru!”
Upon hearing Orochimaru's self-introduction, the crowd quickly broke into a discussion. During World War II, three ninjas fought against Yamashino Hanzo, who was known as a demigod in the Ninja Realm. Not only did they not lose, but they were also given the title of Sanin by Yamashino Hanzo. Now, the name of Sanin had long spread throughout the Ninja Realm. Some examinees even looked at Orochimaru with admiration. Although they were ninjas from other villages, it did not stop them from worshiping the strong.
Orochimaru didn't pay too much attention to these strange gazes. He nodded slightly and said," This exam is a survival battle. It tests your survival skills in the wild. There are all kinds of poisonous insects and snakes in the Forest of Death, and there are even some man-eating beasts. Your mission is to enter without any preparation and stay in there for three days. Then, you will snatch the Heaven and Earth Scroll from the other teams!”At this point, Orochimaru took out two scrolls from his bosom. On them were written the words Heaven and Earth.
"Each of your groups will obtain one of the scrolls, either Heaven or Earth. The content of your test is to seize a scroll from other small groups within these three days.”Orochimaru smiled and pointed to a temporary exchange office in an empty space not far away. He said again," If there's no problem, you can go there to register. The person in charge will be responsible for giving you scrolls!”
Everyone started to move towards the Exchange Office.
"Li, let's go over too!" Seeing that everyone had already taken action, Wave Wind Water Sect said to Li beside him.
"Yes!" Li nodded, but very quickly, he felt a few gazes sweeping over him. He looked up and saw three sand-like ninjas looking at him with ill intentions. These three sand-like ninjas were the three he met on the street yesterday. One was a burly fatty, one looked a little thin, and the last was a little scary. His entire head was wrapped in a white cloth, leaving only his right eye exposed. His back was slightly hunched.
"Li, what's wrong?" Jiu Xinna did not understand and looked at Li in confusion.
"No, it's nothing!" Li came back to his senses and shook his head slightly. Then, he looked at the exchange counter and said indifferently,"Let's go and get the scroll first!"”
It was probably three years ago that Sanin Village had set their eyes on him. The three Fujiwara and Chiyoko Granny had not forgotten about it, so they wanted to use this opportunity to get rid of him. However, both Fujiwara and Chiyoko Granny knew his strength, so it was likely that these three Genins were not that simple.
"This is your scroll. Remember, don't let anyone know what kind of scroll you're holding, understand?”
When it was Li's group's turn, the ninja with curly sleeves reminded Li, perhaps because they were all Kioba Ninjas, so as to avoid being at a disadvantage. After all, Li and the others were too young. They were taking the Chuunin exam at the age of nine. Although this was not the first time in Kioba, it was not more than five. As they were all Kioba Ninjas, the examiner hoped that his village would have a few more geniuses.
"Yes, I know!" Hearing this, Li nodded his head indifferently. He then took the scroll and glanced at the words on it. It was the Heaven Scroll. It seemed that the next task was to snatch the Earth Scroll.
After everyone took their scrolls, all the examinees gathered in front of the Forest of Death once again, waiting for Orochimaru to open the door. The Forest of Death was extremely dangerous. Even an ordinary chuunin might not be able to come back alive if they ran in. Therefore, the surroundings were blocked by iron nets to prevent some ignorant children from running in. Of course, it was more to prevent poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts from running out.
"I believe that all of you have memorized the rules. Now, the first round of the Chuunin exam, the survival battle, officially begins!”
As Orochimaru's voice fell, the Koba Ninja who was accompanying him slowly opened the door of the Forest of Death. In an instant, all the examinees rushed in, and each group chose a different direction to hide.
"Let's go too!" After seeing everyone enter, Li narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the place where the three sand ninjas had disappeared. Then, he said to the Water Wave Gate and Kushina.
"Oh, I've been waiting for a long time!" Kyocinna clenched her fists in excitement, her little face flushed red. She was very interested in the upcoming battle. She could finally fight alongside Li.
Wave Wind Water Gate only smiled and followed Li and Jiu Xinna into the Forest of Death. In the blink of an eye, the three of them disappeared into the forest. The Forest of Death was called a forest. The trees were so dense that they almost covered the sky and the sun. As long as one didn't come out by themselves, it would be difficult to find them.
"Little brat, I hope you can come out alive!”Looking at the spot where Li and the other two had disappeared, Orochimaru smiled and muttered to himself. He could also sense that the examinees from Sanin Village had already set their sights on Li. This matter was probably not that simple.
Teng!
On the trunk of a big tree, three Shinobu stopped. The burly fatty grinned at the Shinobu who was tied with a white cloth and said," Boss, should we wait here for that kid to come, or should we take the initiative to attack?”
