Ninja School, Zone C.

The noise was whispered incessantly, and it was not quiet for a long time.

Countless astonished and shocked gazes fell on Xili's body, and they still didn't seem to believe what they had seen.

They are all thinking about a question.

If you face that minotaur by yourself, how many chances will you have?

There is no doubt that if you are not careful, you may be killed by a single punch.

They still haven't figured out what the black flame is, it's obviously a flame form, but it doesn't have the characteristics of a flame burning.

Mystery and the unknown can make people more fearful.

This guy is strong and dangerous.

The indifferent eyes seem to care about nothing, and the indifferent momentum that emanates faintly from the body makes people feel jealous.

Xili and Izumi stepped out of the ring, and the onlookers consciously moved out of the way.

This is a respect for the strong.

What if they still think Sili is a monster?

Only this time the monster is not an ugly monster with horns, but a monster that is so powerful that they can only look up to it!

"Little Sissy, when did you become so strong?"

Izumi stared at Xili with resentment and asked wrigglingly.

She also wanted to take Xiao Xixi to fly a wave, but the whole audience played soy sauce, and she won without doing anything!

"Uh..."

Xili was choked very lightly, how to answer this? He seems to have left the impression of a weak chicken in the young lady's heart?

Just then, there was a scream in the A zone ring.

Most of them are girls' voices.

The Zone A ring ended after a 22-minute battle came to an end after the Uchiha Itachi knocked the trio off the field with a beautiful over-the-shoulder throw.

In addition to Uchiha Itachi, there are three lucky guys who make the cut.

As for Sectors B and D, the fighting was longer.

Fortunately for Zone D, the battle has come to an end, and the winner will be decided in less than half an hour.

And Zone B played all morning!

It wasn't until nearly two o'clock in the afternoon that the battle ended, and the remaining four imps with blue noses and swollen faces and missing front teeth won!

In the end, there were only 14 finalists.

Because only Xili and Izumi advance in Zone C.

And these fourteen people are already members of the elite class, and the next step is the ranking competition, where scholarships will be awarded in order of ranking.

There are scholarships every year, with the difference being that there are two in the first year.

One is the placement exercise in March, and the second is the end of the final exam.

Ranking matches and team battles are very different competitions.

Team battles simulate ninja wars, testing comprehensive abilities, including but not limited to reconnaissance, diplomacy, strength, and calculation.

It can be summed up in one sentence - survive without compromising means!

The ranking match is a one-on-one single-win system, which tests the strength of the individual.

No teammates, no companions, only one enemy.

Fourteen into seven, seven into four, four into two, two into one.

There is a lack of one person when seven into four, so there is a lucky guy who will have a bye.

Luck is also part of strength.

There are four matches to be played in total, and although they are all single-best, it is also an endurance match, who can't hold on first?

Learn to think and win in the least simple way.

Save enough stamina for the next battle until the final victory!

Ninja battles don't give people much time to rest, and a new round of enemies will appear before they can be resolved.

The ranking match is also a simulation of the ninja war, but it is another war mode.

Since the B-zone ring didn't end until nearly two o'clock in the afternoon, the ranking tournament was postponed until early tomorrow morning.

One night's rest was enough for fourteen qualifiers to regain their strength.

……

On the night of the thunderstorm, Sili was resting under the eaves after eating enough for twenty people.

Suddenly, he heard a thunderous explosion, and a thought flashed through his heart.

"Izumi I'll go back first, see you tomorrow!"

The words fell, and I didn't give Izumi a chance to speak, and Xili disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Izumi Mi, who was helping her mother clean up in the kitchen, quickly ran out when she heard the sound, only to see one of Xili's backs disappearing into the darkness.

"Little Sissy, don't be late tomorrow!"

"Got it!"

Konoha back mountain, in the highest forest clearing. From time to time, thunder pierced the sky, illuminating the dark night sky.

After the last cultivation was over, Xili clearly felt the strengthening of his internal organs.

It's not a delusion, it's something that really happened.

If there was any accident that day, it was only awakened by lightning in his sleep.

Two doubts.

One is why was it struck by lightning and left unscathed except for paralysis? The other is that it is really because of the relationship that was struck by lightning that the internal organs were strengthened?

If these two questions can be clarified, Xili feels that his road to becoming stronger is not so confused!

"Let's try it with a shadow clone first!"

Sili sealed his hands, wasting a lot of chakra to create two shadow clones.

Then he pointed to an open area and said to one of the shadow clones, "Go there and lie down and sleep." ”

"Where to sleep on a thunderstorm? Thunder Split! ”

The shadow clone complained, but walked over as he said.

Xili was worried that the thunder would be crooked if it was not hit accurately, so he specially prepared a long metal lightning rod and inserted it in the open space.

After doing all this, he glanced at the lightning flashing above his head, and then quickly dodged and ducked into the woods a hundred paces away.

Now it's up to you to see when this thunder falls.

"What if I can't sleep?"

The shadow clone lying next to the lightning rod suddenly opened his eyes and asked.

Hearing this, the corners of Xili's eyes twitched, this is indeed a problem.

After a moment's thought, he hurriedly spoke.

"Close your eyes and don't think about anything, relax your body and stay empty."

Thundered!

The thunder flickered, like white snakes swimming in the dark curtain, and the deafening thunder heralded the impending downpour.

Didn't keep Sili waiting too long.

Rumble!

Above the Nine Heavens, a heavenly thunder split the night in two, and then fell straight down to the Nine Heavens and slashed towards the mountain behind Konoha.

The lightning rod played a key role in this moment.

Click!

The lightning flashed, and the shadow clone lying in the clearing instantly turned into a cloud of smoke.

The information was also fed back into Xili's mind in an instant.

"I see..."

……

Under the same thunderstorm night, in a dark forest outside Konoha Village.

"Lord Tuanzang, someone brought it."

Two root members wearing grimace masks flash and appear in the gloomy forest with a little imp around six years old.

On closer inspection, it is not difficult to find that this little ghost is one of the people who have been promoted in the D region during the day!

Bang!

The thunder flashed, illuminating the night and a figure in the forest.

"Shimura stab, I need your strength."

"Yes, Danzo-sama!"

The little ghost named Shimura Ichito knelt on the ground respectfully, his expression surprisingly calm, not like a six-year-old ghost at all.

"Kill that bull-headed kid in tomorrow's game, this can help you."

"Yes!"

No reason asked, no hesitation.

Shimura stretched out his hands and respectfully took a pitch-black pill.

Bang!

Another flash of thunder!

There was nothing in the gloomy forest, and there was still a trace of a human figure.
