Chapter 81 Grouping(1/3)

it's over.

This is the true thought of everyone present.

But no one will feel any relief after that, because this is just the qualifying match before the official match.

Through this qualifying match, everyone also has a general understanding of the other contestants who have advanced.

When it comes to the official competition, it won't be as easy and satisfying as the qualifiers.

In the qualifying round, the qualifying candidates who defeated their respective opponents included Hisashi Yamazaki, Kimimaro Kaguya, Aya Chiba, Hibiki Eda, Sasuke Uchiha, Asuka Uchiha, Shino Aburame, Temari, Shiro, and Neji Hinata.

, Gaara, Naruto, Rock Lee, Uzumaki Kaoru and fourteen genin.

The other fourteen people, as losers in the preliminaries, naturally ended up being eliminated and were unable to qualify for the third Chunin Exam.

Among those who were promoted, Oni no Kuni and Konoha each accounted for five, and Kirigakure and Sunagakure also accounted for two each.

Onigashima Ninja nodded slightly when he saw all the promoted genin and their guiding jonin coming down from the observation deck and gathering on the stage.

Although as the examiner of the third exam, he must be fair and impartial and must not engage in any favoritism.

But seeing a total of five genin promoted to the Demon Country, I couldn't help but feel happy.

However, Onigashima Ninja also knew that it was temporarily unknown how many of these fourteen people would become chuunin.

There is no problem here in the Kingdom of Demons. However, the criteria for evaluating chunin in other villages are different in peacetime. The wartime merit system cannot be used. The evaluation of chunin will be much more complicated than in wartime. Factors to be considered

Also more.

Rather, it is precisely because of peacetime that the requirements for ninjas should be stricter rather than relaxed.

On the other side, Shiraishi also walked down from the audience seats and came to the stage, where he joined the Onigashima ninja and faced a group of advanced genin and instructing jounin.

After a brief thought, Shiraishi slowly said: "I would like to congratulate you for passing this preliminary round and getting the tickets to participate in the third exam."

The advanced genin candidates had different thoughts and expressions on their faces, ranging from smiles to indifference, but none of them felt nervous or uneasy.

"Stop talking about unnecessary nonsense, how will you arrange your opponents for the third exam?"

Naruto was the first to ask, and it was also the question that everyone was most concerned about.

"I'm really out of breath, but I'm in good spirits. Since you can't wait to ask, let's make a long story short. The combination for the third exam will be decided by drawing lots later."

Shiraishi smiled slightly and smiled away the impatience of Naruto and others.

"Draw lots?"

"That's right. After all, it is impossible to start drawing lots at the beginning of the third exam. In that case, it will take up a lot of competition time. Therefore, while the preliminaries are over, fourteen qualified candidates will be selected to draw lots.

method to determine the competing combinations for the third exam. If there are no objections, let’s start.”

As he spoke, Shiraishi motioned to a ninja from the Kingdom of Ghosts standing behind him.

The other party, like the Onigashima Ninja, is also a Jōnin from the Kingdom of Oni. He holds a box the size of his head in his arms, which is the lottery box that has been prepared.

Everyone looked at each other, but no one objected.

Naruto was the first to step forward to draw, and casually took out a bamboo stick from the lottery box.

I saw the number '3' written on the bamboo stick.

"I'm number 3."

Naruto scratched his head and said something.

The rest of the people stepped forward to draw lots. During the drawing process, Neji wanted to use his Byakugan to observe, but found that his Byakugan could not penetrate the lottery box. When he saw the numbers on the bamboo sticks inside, he couldn't help but frown.

Thinking of what Ayane said when she came to look for her during lunch break, she couldn't help but hum.

In less than a minute, fourteen people had drawn lots and displayed the numbers they had drawn.

After that, the statistics were collected by specialized personnel. About five minutes later, the battle table for the third test was printed out. It was held by Onigashima Shinobi in his hand and unfolded in front of Naruto and other candidates so that they could see their third test.

Who is the opponent in the exam?

The final decided battle list is as follows——

Gaara (Sunagakure) VS Shiro (Kirigakure)

Uzumaki Naruto (Konoha) VS Aburame Shino (Konoha)

Sasuke Uchiha (Konoha) VS Kaoru Uzumaki (Ghost)

Rock Lee (Konoha) VS Hibikishi (Ghost)

Uchiha Asuka (Ghost) VS Temari (Sunagakure)

Hisashi Yamazaki (Ghost) VS Kaguya Kimimaro (Kirigakure)

Aya Chiba (Ghost) VS Hyuga Neji (Konoha)

Seeing this battle table, Neji thought to himself that it was true.

Although the battle arrangements for the rest of the group were done behind closed doors, his arrangements were clearly handed down by Hyuga Ayane.

Otherwise, it would not be such a coincidence that his opponent would be Chiba Aya, a ninja who also has Byakugan.

But this way, it was just what he wanted. He would make that arrogant woman pay the price of despising him and completely tear his so-called 'despair' into pieces!

Cai on the other side also frowned, feeling vaguely that something was wrong.

Since the lunch break, Konoha's Hyuga Neji has been showing strong hostility towards him, and the third exam happened to be against Hyuga Neji, who had strong hostility towards him... If there is no one operating behind the scenes, it will be better.

Don't believe it either.

has a problem.

But Cai couldn't tell what was wrong.

Compared to Cai's doubts and confusion, Asuka had a headache.

Fighting against the Wind Release Ninja was something he felt quite depressed about.

To be honest, although he can use fire escape, he is far less good at thunder escape.

Because his fire escape technique is mostly used for feint attacks in battles, his thunder escape technique combined with the electromagnetic acceleration attack of his shuriken is his main attack method.

Unfortunately, because it is a magnetic field created by Lei Dun, as long as it is based on the thunder attribute chakra, it will be restrained by Wind Dun. Even if some properties are changed, it cannot escape this law.

What's more, Temari's wind escape is very powerful.

Ordinary fire escape, I'm afraid there is no way to counter it.

Do you need to practice your fire escape to counter wind escape in the past few days? Asuka began to think about this question.

If the standard is to pursue the maximum winning rate, then before the official competition, training Fire Release to restrain Wind Release is the best way.

However, is this little time before the official competition enough to take my fire escape to the next level?

Asuka is a little doubtful of his ninja talent.

His ninja talent is not actually good, it can only be said to be average. Although he serves as the main force in the team, it is based on Xiang Rin's sensory ninjutsu and Aya's Byakugan assistance that he can be a long-range attacker.

Location.

Once he loses these 'eyes', his offensive ability will be greatly reduced. In that case, the main force will become Cai.

Especially when encountering a wind escape ninja who is relatively restrained in his thunder escape, his thunder escape ability cannot be fully used.

This is not a good thing for him who is proficient in Thunder Release Ninjutsu.

Compared to Asuka's headache and depression, Temari's mood was much more relaxed.

What she was most worried about was meeting the mysterious miko Hibikieda from the Kingdom of Ghosts. Although Asuka was also troublesome, she would definitely be much easier to deal with than that miko. And from the previous battles, she could tell that Asuka focused on

The training in Lei Dun is exactly controlled by her Wind Dun.

However, Temari was not so arrogant that she thought she could win easily.

Although Asuka has never been seen using Fire Release, as a member of the Uchiha clan, it is common knowledge that he can use Fire Release. Considering this, Temari felt that he needed to be careful about Asuka's hidden Fire Release.

Invisible attacks are the most dangerous.

"Naruto..."

Shino looked at the name of the person he was about to fight and fell into a brief silence.

To be honest, based on Naruto's previous performance, apart from knowing that Naruto can use the Shadow Clone Technique, I don't know any other information.

He would not think that Naruto would still be the same Naruto who had a bad brain during the ninja school, and his strength was not the same as in the past.

He was originally a guy who was at the tail end of a crane, but in just a few months he caught up and his strength improved by leaps and bounds, which made Shino inevitably feel a little uncomfortable.

The battle then may be more difficult than imagined. Shino said in his heart.

The others also had different thoughts when they saw the opponent they were going to fight in the third test. They began to think about tactics and strategies based on the previous battles to increase their winning rate in the official match.

"I have a question."

At this time, Sasuke raised his palm.

"Please say."

Shiraishi put his hands in the pockets of his white coat and glanced at Sasuke.
To be continued...
