Chapter 811 Gathering
This "Demon Desert" exam will end before 1 p.m. on the last day.
Originally very vast, the Circle of Divine Punishment will shrink smaller and smaller, and will eventually become an approximate circle with a diameter of one kilometer. The area covered by it is a hilly area with only one rock pillar for candidates to stand on, and below it is a bottomless In the Quicksand Sea, except for a few insects living in it, they can come and go freely. Other large creatures will be swallowed up if they fall into it.
Not to mention genin, most chuunin and even a few jounin would not be able to escape on their own if they were accidentally trapped.
Candidates for the Chuunin Exam fell into the sea of quicksand. If they were not rescued by their teammates, they would have to withdraw from the exam with regret.
Of course, today's candidates don't know the harsh terrain that awaits them.
Hyuga Neji and Rock Lee, who were harassed by Saya, Shana and Team Murasaki during the day, finally found a relatively safe place to stay with Tenten, who was unconscious most of the time.
I originally planned to find the Konoha female ninja team for help, but unfortunately I never came across them.
Not only that, even Class 10, who were regarded as "alternatives", ran far away and showed no intention of getting involved.
"Neji, your injury is okay!"
"It doesn't matter, the wound medicine is very effective. Once bandaged, it won't affect the battle!"
Hyuga Neji's answer made Rock Lee feel a little more at ease, but the most troublesome problem was still unresolved.
Tiantian woke up halfway and gave his teammates hope for a time. It seemed that nothing was serious, but when the two teammates were unprepared, they suddenly took action and injured Hinata Neji's arm again.
Fortunately, I caught the opportunity early and the injury was not serious.
The hope that as time goes by and the distance between Miss Saya and Miss Saya will weaken or even disappear, the effect of the puppet imitation technique will be weakened. The opponent can even control Tiantian, pretending to be depressed and unhealed, and launch a sneak attack.
In such a situation, let alone facing the enemy with peace of mind, judging whether teammates have recovered and guarding against companions are already nerve-wracking enough.
Within half a day, once Tenten woke up, Hyuga Neji and Rock Lee knocked him out to prevent him from acting without permission and causing distraction.
After going back and forth, the two teammates were a little reluctant to take action, fearing that if they continued to toss, Tiantian would be beaten silly.
"Continuing like this is not an option!"
After replenishing food and drinking water and regaining strength, Locke Lee suggested,
"How about we split up and you protect Tiantian while I go find Sakura or Ino and convince them to help..."
"It's a bit difficult!"
Hyuga Neji was a little hesitant. With Rock Lee's eloquence and popularity, there was really little hope of getting his competitors to agree to rescue Tenten.
"This Chuunin Exam also exposed a not-so-serious weakness of our team, that is, under the attack of top genjutsu ninjas and Yin Escape masters who are proficient in spiritual arts, there is no countermeasures..."
Not to mention being insulated from Ninjutsu and Genjutsu and Rock Lee, Hyuga Neji and Tenten also have no good way to defend against attacks targeting the spirit and soul.
"This...not to mention the genin, many jounin are also helpless!"
"You will have to face it sooner or later!"
Hinata Neji said calmly.
With the strength and talents of himself and his two teammates, it was only a matter of time before he was promoted to Jonin. In the future, he would encounter all kinds of opponents, and it was never a good thing if he had too obvious weaknesses.
This is actually not the fault of the three of them. Metkai himself is not very good at these things, so naturally he can't teach them much.
Only relying on talent and instinct to passively deal with it has its limits, and you still need to have corresponding knowledge reserves and experience.
Of course, it is useless to say this now, but it is not too late for young genin who have countless possibilities in the future to realize it.
After communicating for a while, Hyuga Neji rejected Rock Lee's proposal:
"The second test has reached the final critical moment. Candidates with insufficient strength have been eliminated, and the remaining ones are not ordinary people. It is too dangerous for the team members to act separately..."
"Then...what do you think we should do?"
"Counterattack..."
Hyuga Neji said decisively,
"We lost the opportunity because we were led by the Sand Ninja during the day! After the two of us recover, after dawn, you will protect Tiantian, and I will attack directly, one against three, and break the situation with absolute strength..."
Break through all methods with one force, and use individual combat strength to forcibly reverse the defeat.
"We have to use our strengths and avoid our weaknesses to give full play to our advantages. We cannot get entangled with our opponents in areas that we are not good at!"
"Isn't it a bit risky? The opponent is not a weakling who can be defeated casually..."
"I see!"
The genius of the Hyuga family nodded in understanding,
"Xiao Li, we are participating in the Chunin Examination. Promotion is one of our goals, but it is more important to improve ourselves by fighting against strong men. Isn't the predicament at this moment exactly what we want? If there are no setbacks, promotion will be smooth sailing. Chuunin, that’s disappointing..."
"A passionate challenge?"
The words of his companion made Rock Lee's blood boil.
"Indeed, there is no time more suitable to prove the value of 'youth' than now! Although I also want to defeat my opponent on my own and turn the tide, but I also understand that you are stronger and more hopeful than me now. Help Tiantian get rid of control..."
"Leave it to me. The glory of the most powerful family in the ninja world is not in vain!"
Hyuga Neji said,
"First of all, we have to take a good rest and get back to the best condition. As you said, those sand ninjas are difficult to deal with! Of course, the prerequisite for the action is that the female ninja team can't be found to help, and we can't reach a consensus with Team 10. !”
…
In the central tower monitoring room, Morino Ihiki, who had been observing for a long time, couldn't help but yawned and moved his stiff neck a little.
Long Sha, the examiner on the side, had already drank several cups of strong tea tonight. He was nervously monitoring the happenings in the examination room, and he was undoubtedly under greater pressure.
Especially when Fuyi and his subordinates started to take action and Gaara and the Shadow Guards counterattacked, they didn't dare to be careless.
Fortunately, the most dangerous day has passed, and I feel relieved a little.
"The first and second trials of this Chunin Exam are so difficult, the elimination rate should be much higher than before!"
Morino Ihiki said,
"It would be great to have ten candidates left in the end! I didn't expect there to be so many people on the last night..."
"The candidates are of high quality. After all, they are the most talented young ninjas in the entire ninja world. What's more, the last chuunin exam was abandoned halfway. Many genin who were supposed to be promoted are gathered for this chunin exam, especially..."
Ryusha Jounin said with a smile,
"The session two years ago was already a rare 'big year'. There were endless talented genin emerging, and many talents have emerged this year. If Iwagakure and Kirigakure villages hadn't fallen into a serious shortage of talent, there wouldn't have been many talented genin. , Yunyin Village is perfunctory, and may be more exaggerated..."
