Chapter 31: Official Competition

Next.

It's still the same venue as yesterday, but the scene inside the stadium is completely different from yesterday.

The gate on the other side of the arena has been opened, and residents and ninjas who have come to watch the actual combat drill are pouring in from outside the gate.

The surrounding stands were already crowded, and the noise of discussion surrounded the stadium, which was in stark contrast to yesterday's scene without a single spectator.

Xuan Yu and the other eight people have also arrived at this moment, and the top eight of the qualifiers are standing in the middle of the field, enjoying the gaze from all directions, which can be described as the attention of everyone, and the mood of the eight people at the moment is also a little excited.

The eight outstanding students who stood out out of the two hundred, this alone is enough to attract people to watch.

In addition, there was also a counterattack to break through and break the so-called 'crane tail' rumors Xuanyu, who ranked among the top eight in one fell swoop, such a reversal is even more eye-catching and curious.

And there is also the civilian genius Bo Feng Shuimen, who has been rated as the best and most comprehensive in recent years, which makes people look forward to his dazzling battle.

In addition, the Uchiha Fire Core and Hinata Guangyao, two geniuses who have fierce competition with Bo Feng Shuimen, as well as the children of other major families, gathered together, making this official competition scene full.

Directly in front of the eight people in the stadium was the even taller stand.

Xuan Yu watched from a distance and found that there were already a few people sitting on it at this time, and there were still many ninjas standing on the side, all with sharp eyes, and sitting in the middle was the three generations of Hokage apes who had already come to the scene.

And sitting next to him is Shimura Danzo, who has not yet wrapped his right hand because of the transplantation of intercolumnar cells, at this time his bright identity is still the Hokage's assistant, and secretly he is the leader of the dark training department 'root' that has just been established for a while.

Shimura group meal has always been a selfish person in Hyun Yu's impression, and he is also one of the important reasons why Hyun Yu has always wanted to expose himself too early and chose to hide his strength.

These two high-ranking people are looking at the top eight students at the moment, while talking sideways for a few words from time to time, exchanging their opinions with each other.

But the two of them are basically at odds with each other, and Shimura Danzo, who has always wanted to be the Hokage, will not really assist Sarutobi at all, and is bent on pulling Sarutobi off the horse.

And although Ape Fei Ri Chop chose to turn a blind eye to Tuan Zang's struggle for power and profit because of his old feelings, if it really touched his principles or bottom line, he would not let Tuan Zang mess up, otherwise he would not be able to steadily press Tuan Zang for so many years in the future.

In addition, the future Konoha Sannin, whom Xuan Yu had already seen, were also in the stands, all standing by the fence next to the ape flying sun.

Tsunade was looking at the arena with a smile on his face, and when he saw Xuan Yu looking at him with a slightly mocking expression, Xuan Yu saw that he was a little funny in his heart, and he also replied with a smile.

"Hey, Tsunade, don't you see that kid named Hyun Woo that day?"

Jiraiya hasn't had any contact with Xuan Yu since that meeting, and he didn't expect that the other party would have reached the quarterfinals of the actual combat training match when he met again, which couldn't help but surprise him.

"Well, it's him, didn't you know that he defeated Zhongnin that day, and it's normal to be in the top eight." Tsunade nodded, although she didn't think that the other party could get the first place, but she didn't deny the other party's strength.

"Well... I didn't believe it that day, so I didn't think about it again, so if I look at it this way, this kid really did what happened that day. Jiraiya scratched his head and said with an embarrassed expression.

"Heh, you are the only one who refuses to believe it, insisting that he is not as good as your inner apprentice Bo Feng Shuimen." Orochimaru suddenly sneered at the right time.

"I'm not wrong, although he is in the quarterfinals now, it is impossible to beat Watergate." Jiraiya has always been unhappy with Orochimaru, but when he saw that the other party came to mock him again, he immediately pushed back.

"Well, let's make a bet." Orochimaru's snake-like pupils stared at Xuan Yu in the field, and he was silent for a few seconds, and then suddenly said.

"Huh?" Jiraiya looked confused.

"Huh? Orochimaru, you actually took the initiative to make a bet with someone? Tsunade was also surprised, saying that she wasn't the one who liked to gamble.

Orochimaru stared at Xuan Yu, then a sneer appeared on the corner of his mouth, and said: "Often the people who hide the deepest will be more terrible than those who are exposed to the sun, I bet that he can win the wave of Feng Shuimen, because I always feel as if there is something hidden in his body." ”

I have to say that Orochimaru does have a unique vision, but his eyes were staring at Xuan Yu in the field, and he shuddered violently, feeling as if he was being watched by some dangerous person, and he couldn't help but look left and right.

"Good! Anyway, I've never gambled with you in private, I bet with you! But what's the stake? Zilai also proudly agreed to the bet, and then asked.

"Simple, the one who loses, takes three punches." Orochimaru said with an indifferent expression, as if this bet was nothing.

Orochimaru also doesn't gamble, and gambling is a direct gamble, and the two people on the side of this bet are confused.

"Three punches to the tsunade? Are you afraid that you are not living in a dream? Jiraiya exclaimed.

"Hmph, coward." Orochimaru replied simply and directly.

"You!! Damn it... Bet on it! Jiraiya was still too young at this time, and when he heard this, he immediately jumped to his feet in anger, and then said loudly.

Tsunade held his forehead slightly, and was speechless for his two strange expressions.

In addition, the ninjas who were in charge of guarding and organizing the crowd at this time also gradually quieted the scene, and then a ninja walked up to the eight people and began to explain the rules and competition methods of the official competition to everyone.

"In the quarterfinals of the official competition, the way of the game is to fight against the strong, and finally determine the first place, the rules are also very simple, any way to win can be used, just let the opponent admit defeat or lose the ability to fight, it is considered a win."

Xuan Yu listened and analyzed, to put it simply, if you want to win the championship and win the first place in the quarterfinals, you have to win three battles in a row, all battles are immediately chosen, two by two, and the game will not stop until one side admits defeat or loses the ability to fight.

Although the number of people has been greatly reduced compared to the qualifiers, the most important thing is that the opponent's strength is much stronger than before, and because of the reason that he has to fight three games in a row, even if he has a break in the middle, he must control his physical strength and chakra consumption.

And you can't expose all your hole cards too early, in case the next opponent comes up with targeted tactics and makes yourself into a hard battle, which requires students to have a certain tactical plan to strengthen the strength.

After the ninja finished speaking, he also introduced himself, and then the eight people knew that the person in charge of explaining that this person was the referee who won the game, and it was also a ninja named Fei Yu Imori.
