Chapter 168: Final Assessment
"Deliver the news to the daimyo and ninja leaders first, and then you can announce the results!" After receiving the report from Yamanaka Haiyi, Sarutobi immediately agreed to cancel the final battle and made arrangements for Yamanaka's next task.
The daimyo and ninja leaders who received the cancellation of the final battle felt a little pity, but they all expressed their understanding.
The strength of Uchiha Itachi and Echizen Kazuya has been well displayed in front of everyone in the previous battle, and there is definitely no problem in promoting the middle ninja, and the two ninjas who both belong to Konoha Village will definitely not fight to the death in a meaningless battle, so it doesn't make much sense to watch.
After confirming that the konnobi exam was over, the daimyo and the ninja leader in charge of the final judging left their seats and gathered towards the stand where Sarutobi Hizaki was located, ready to discuss the list of people who would finally pass the knobi exam.
"Congratulations, Ape Fei, there are a lot of young talents in Konoha Village!" The Daimyo of the Land of Fire first came to the ape flying in front of the Sun Slash and said with a pleasant face.
"Rejoice and rejoice, Konoha Village and the Land of Fire are one!" After seeing the performance of Uchiha Itachi and the others, Sarutobi Hizashi was naturally extremely pleased, and immediately said with a smile after hearing the words of the Daimyo.
"Yes, that's what I said!" The Daimyo of the Land of Fire whispered with a fan over his mouth.
After a few brief exchanges with the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, several other judges also arrived, and Sarutobi coughed lightly twice and cleared his throat, and said with a smile: "Everyone, all the battles in the middle ninja exam are over here, so let's make trouble for you to decide the list of the middle ninja promotion this time!" ”
"Lord Ape Fei, you are too polite, it is our honor to participate in the review, we are so happy, why bother?" As soon as Sarutobi slashed his words, a ninja leader who didn't know what force he belonged to immediately spoke.
"Yes, yes, no trouble, no trouble!"
"We are also very honored!" A few people who were a little slower to react immediately followed suit.
Sarutobi nodded and said with a smile: "Then we won't waste time, so as not to make so many people wait for a long time, let's start now, first of all, Uchiha Itachi, what is everyone's opinion?" ”
When Sarutobi slashed a group of people to make a decision, Yamanaka Kaichi returned to the venue and said loudly in one breath: "Everyone, after the confirmation of the candidate Echizen Kazuya, because the chakra was consumed too much and his physical strength was not enough, he decided to withdraw from the final battle, and the final winner was Uchiha Itachi!" This is the end of this middle ninja exam, please wait a while, the list of promoted middle ninja will be announced soon, so stay tuned! ”
"What? I thought the battle between Uchiha Itachi and Echizen Kazuya was about to start, but how did it end like this? ”
"Why? I'm going to watch the next round! I'm going to see Uchiha Itachi! A nymphomaniac girl shouted in dissatisfaction.
"yes, yes, why isn't it when it's the most exciting?"
As soon as Yamanaka announced the results, the stands were filled with discussions, but the dissatisfaction of the audience did not change anything, and the exam was over, and the crowd that had been making a fuss quickly recovered from their disappointment and began to eagerly discuss the list of people who would be promoted to Nakashinobi.
"I think Uchiha Itachi and Echizen Kazuya will definitely have no problem, Koji Takeuchi and Jomaru are also very strong, maybe they can also be promoted to the middle ninja, and Hinata Tetsushi, Nara Shikai and Akido Yoshito also seem to be good, and there is also a chance to be promoted to the middle ninja!" A man with a goatee, who looked like a merchant, touched his mustache and said loudly to his companion.
"It's good that you just say that everyone can be promoted, and it's so troublesome!" The goatee's companion shouted in his ear, but it was so noisy that he couldn't hear it clearly!
"That's not it, that guy who escaped from the battle will definitely not be promoted!" Goatee shouted firmly.
"Mom, did my brother pass?" Ino also said in Keiko Yamanaka's ear, but the little girl's voice was too soft, and Keiko Yamanaka listened to it several times before she heard it clearly.
"The results will come out later, just wait!" Ino almost didn't hear Keiko Yamanaka's gentle voice at all, but he didn't ask any more, nodded helplessly, and craned his neck to look at Kaichi Yamanaka and Kazuya Echizen in the venue, his eyes shining.
"Then Uchiha Itachi and Echizen Kazuya have been unanimously recognized by everyone and have been qualified to be promoted to the middle ninja, followed by Takeuchi Koji and Jomaru, let's evaluate Takeuchi Koji first, do you agree with his promotion to the middle ninja?" Ape Fei Ri slashed the same group of judges, one candidate after another, and confirmed.
First up are Itachi Uchiha and Kazuya Echizen, who have been recognized by everyone, followed by Koji Takeuchi and Jomaru who advanced to the second round.
"I think these two people are fine, their strength is obvious to all, although they lost to their respective opponents, but compared to the people who were promoted to the middle ninja in previous years, they still have a great advantage, I agree that the two of them were promoted to the middle ninja, what do you think?" The judges looked at each other, and it was the highest-ranking Fire Nation Daimyo who spoke first.
"I'm okay with that." A ninja leader thought about it for a moment and was the first to agree.
"I'm okay with that." After having the first person to endorse, the rest were quick to give their opinion.
After waiting for a while, Ape Fei Ri saw that there were still a few people who did not speak, so he smiled and said, "Does anyone have any objections?" If there is, you can talk about it. ”
After inquiring, Sarutobi found that no one raised objections, so he solemnly confirmed, "No? Then Koji Takeuchi and Jomaru are also eligible for promotion! ”
"Next are the four people who were eliminated in the first round, Akimichi Yoshito, Hinata Tetsushi, Nara Kagei and Kamiyasu, so let's talk about your opinions first." After confirming the qualifications of the four, Ape Fei Ri said with a smile.
"Shangriya lost his battle and escaped, and he disregarded the interests of the ninja village to which he belonged, so he would rule it out first, I don't think he has the qualifications to become a middle ninja, I don't feel at ease to entrust the task to such a ninja!" Before the ape Fei Ri's words fell, Kawada Zun, the daimyo of the country of rivers, said disdainfully, he usually entrusts tasks to Yuyin Village, but now when he looks at the performance of Shangya, he is extremely disappointed in the entire Yuyin Village.
"I agree, Kamiya is not suitable for promotion to Zhongnin." A ninja leader replied with a blank expression.
"Then let's get rid of him first, I don't approve of him either!" The rest of the judges agreed.
"Okay, since everyone agrees, let's rule out the loss of Shangria first, and then discuss the other three candidates, what do you think." Sarutobi didn't feel the slightest bit strange because the three of them were ninjas from Konoha Village, and said calmly.
"Then I'll throw bricks and lead the way, let's talk about my opinion first, judging from the strength shown by the three of them, I think they have reached the level of Zhongnin, and I support them to advance!" Seeing that everyone was still hesitating, the Daimyo of River Country was the first to express his support.
The reason why the Daimyo Kawada Zun of the country of the river is so active is actually to sell Konoha a face, because the country of the river is the closest to Konoha and there is no ninja village in the country, so it is often necessary to entrust tasks to Konoha Village, and having a good relationship will definitely be able to have some concessions in price, and it is a great fortune over time.
