Chapter 71 Chunin Exams!
Several days later, the Ninja Academy was being used as the examination venue for the first written test.
The playground, corridors, and classrooms were all crowded with people.
There are so many people.
Yuhi Hong sighed.
This was the first time she had ever seen so many foreigners.
"Before you go in, let me tell you something: if you can't answer a question, just cheat. Copy the answers from the two ninjas in the middle, or hand in a blank paper."
Kiyoshi revealed the secret knowledge to them.
This exam is actually a test of cheating skills, or in other words, "information gathering skills".
As long as the cheating technique isn't too crude, the proctor won't interfere.
Of course, if you can withstand the psychological pressure, you can also pass the first round of the written test by submitting a blank paper.
It can be said that the main focus here is on information asymmetry.
Those ninjas who repeatedly failed or passed the exam were required to keep it a secret and were forbidden from revealing the questions; violators would be prosecuted.
These points have been explained on the application form; signing indicates agreement.
"No, Kiyoshi, you're saying it was cheating?"
Sarutobi Asuma was completely stunned.
It's hard to imagine that the word "cheating" would come out of Kiyoshi's mouth.
You should know that Kiyoshi has always been seen as a genius.
"-Cheating."
Kurenai knew that Kiyoshi wasn't the kind of person who would just spout nonsense.
But this is just too unbelievable.
"Just remember to finish the exam. We'll go in first."
Seeing that they didn't believe him, Qing Si stopped explaining.
His pupils blurred for a moment, and he quickly scanned the area from all sides, memorizing their basic physical features.
After walking for a while, we arrived at the ninja academy.
One of the entrances was surrounded by a number of ninjas.
"Seriously? You dare to participate in the Chunin Exams like this? Bro, I suggest you just give up."
Ironfire had scars on his body.
Two Uchiha genin followed behind him, their faces filled with anger.
"That was too ruthless."
"Yeah, why are there still people blocking the door?"
People around them were whispering.
"Hey, Kiyoshi, what's going on?"
This scene clearly shocked Sarutobi Asuma's worldview.
How can there be people fighting amongst themselves before even entering the exam room?
Judging from their attire, they are ninjas from Konoha.
"Who knows?"
Kiyoshi shook his head, not intending to explain anything.
He walked straight there.
"The family crest on that guy's back is—Uchiha."
"His name is Uchiha Kiyoshi, right? I've heard people mention him; he's supposedly a genius."
"This is going to be interesting."
The commotion here instantly attracted the attention of many people.
"Seiji."
Kurenai quickly followed.
Before Sarutobi Asuma could figure out what was going on, he saw Kurenai Yuhi walk over and quickly followed.
"Kiyoshi, be careful, those two are not simple."
Just as Uchiha Tetsuka was about to unleash his true skills to spar with the two in front of him, he saw Kiyoshi approaching.
"Dispel the illusion."
Kiyoshi nodded slightly to Tetsuka and looked at the two ninjas blocking the door.
These two ninjas were actually Konoha Jonin in disguise, their purpose being to select a group of Genin for a strength test.
Otherwise, letting in those who are not capable would only harm them.
Naruto, Sakura, and their friends encountered Izumo Kamui and Tetsuo blocking the entrance.
Kiyoshi was unfamiliar with the two ninjas in front of him, and figured they were Jonin he didn't know.
"What illusion?"
Sarutobi Asuma was completely baffled by Kiyoshi's words.
"It's the door number at the back."
After speaking to Kiyoshi, Kurenai looked carefully ahead.
I discovered that the 301 above the threshold is actually 201; this is the second floor!
"He's got some skills."
On the left, in the ninja path, surprisingly, Kiyoshi was able to see through the illusion at a glance.
Even that Uchiha named Uchiha Tekka didn't see through it.
Moreover, Kiyoshi did this without using his Sharingan.
As they spoke, the door number on the threshold behind them returned to normal.
"But simply seeing through illusions isn't enough."
The ninja on the right suddenly kicked Kiyoshi with a whip kick.
Kiyoshi remained expressionless and dodged the kick to the right.
Their purpose is to test the candidates' abilities, so it's impossible for them to fully display the strength of a Jonin.
Kiyoshi didn't believe that those within the genin range could defeat him!
The chakra within his body surged at that moment.
Crack!
With lightning speed, Kiyoshi's middle and index fingers flashed with tiny arcs of electricity as he stabbed forward!
Lightning Release: Lightning Finger!
"!"
The ninja who kicked out immediately pulled his hand away and used the metal plate on the back of his glove to block Kiyoshi's lightning finger.
Bang!
The dull sound spread out, attracting the attention of candidates further away.
"He has some skill."
The ninja blocking Kiyoshi's path stepped back, making way for him, clearly acknowledging Kiyoshi's strength.
"Wow, that's amazing! I couldn't even see the speed just now."
"Did those two gatekeepers let us through?"
The onlookers analyzed the scene they had just witnessed, trying to glean as much useful information as possible.
"Walk."
Kiyoshi turned to Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi, then said to Tetsuka, who was standing to the side:
"You come in too."
After saying that, he went in first.
"Hey, Kiyoshi, what's going on?"
Once inside, Sarutobi Asuma felt that everything was inexplicable.
Unexplained conflicts, unexplained fights.
"They are Jonin disguised as ninjas."
Kiyoshi said.
"A Jonin in disguise?!"
This time, it wasn't just Sarutobi Asuma who was completely confused.
Even Yuhi Akane's small face showed a look of confusion.
"They were just testing our strength."
When they reached the end of the corridor and needed to turn around, Kiyoshi pointed behind him.
Kurenai Yuhi and Asuma Sarutobi looked over.
One of the two ninjas walked behind the door and closed it. Suddenly, his body grew larger, and he took out a cigarette, seemingly taking a rest. He had clearly used the "Transformation Technique".
Sensing the gazes of Kiyoshi and the others, he even made a shushing gesture.
This made Uchiha Tetsuka and his two squad members, who had hesitated for a moment before deciding to follow, turn around and happen to see the ninja's actions.
They were all stunned and speechless.
"Hey, Kiyoshi, how did you know?"
Her cherry-red lips parted repeatedly, her curiosity revealed by Kiyoshi.
"Behind every seemingly illogical phenomenon, there is often a logical rule. Do you think any Konoha examinee would do something that offends people and doesn't even bring any benefit?"
Qing Si said calmly.
Whether you've read the original work or not, you know the plot.
This kind of thing is obviously abnormal and there must be something fishy going on.
Even if some people in Konoha dislike the Uchiha, they would never openly act in a way that undermines unity in public.
Nobody's a fool; this is tantamount to openly provoking the Uchiha.
Sure enough, not long after Kiyoshi finished speaking, the ninja finished his cigarette in a few seconds.
His figure suddenly shrank back to the genin who was blocking the door, and he pushed open the door to test a ninja with a dog along with another ninja.
