The noisy voices kept whispering and did not quiet down for a long time.
Countless looks of surprise and shock fell on Xi Li, and they seemed to still not be able to believe what they saw.
They are all thinking about a question.
If you face that Minotaur yourself, what are your chances of winning?
There is no doubt that if you are not careful, you may be killed instantly with one punch.
They still haven't figured out what the black flame is. It's clearly in the form of a flame but doesn't have the burning characteristics of a flame.
Mystery and the unknown make people more fearful.
This guy is very powerful and dangerous.
His indifferent eyes seemed to not care about anything, and the aloof indifference emanating from his whole body made people feel fearful.
Xili and Quanmei walked off the stage, and the onlookers consciously moved out of the way.
This is respect for the strong.
So what if they still think Xili is a monster?
But this time the monster is not an ugly monster with horns, but a monster so powerful that they can only look up to it!
"Xiao Xixi, when did you become so strong?"
Quanmei stared at Xili resentfully and asked squirmingly.
She was still thinking of taking Xiao Xixi for a ride, but in the end, the whole audience was spoiled and she won without doing anything!
"Well"
Xili was choked so hard, how should he respond to these words? He seemed to have left the impression of a weakling in the young lady's mind?
At this moment, a scream came from the arena in Area A.
Most of them are girls' voices.
In area A, the twenty-two-minute battle ended after Uchiha Itachi knocked the three of them off the field with a beautiful shoulder fall.
In addition to Uchiha Itachi, there are three lucky guys who advance.
As for the battles in areas b and d, the battles are relatively long.
Fortunately, in area d, the battle has come to an end and the winner will be decided in less than half an hour.
As for area B, we spent the entire morning fighting!
The battle didn't end until nearly two o'clock in the afternoon. The remaining four bruised and swollen guys with missing front teeth won!
In the end, only fourteen people qualified.
Because only Xili and Quanmei advance in area C.
These fourteen people are already members of the elite class, and the next step is the ranking competition, where scholarships will be awarded in order of ranking.
There are scholarships every year, but the difference is that there are two scholarships for the first grade.
The first time was the actual class placement exercise in March of admission, and the second time was after the final exam.
Ranked matches and team battles are completely different games.
The team battle simulates a ninja war and tests comprehensive abilities, including but not limited to reconnaissance, diplomacy, strength, planning, etc.
It can be summed up in one sentence: Survive by all means!
The ranking competition is a one-on-one single-win system, which tests personal strength.
There are no teammates, no companions, and only one enemy.
Fourteen goes into seven, seven goes into four, four goes into two, two goes into one.
When going from seventh to fourth, there is one player missing, so one lucky guy will get a bye.
Luck is also part of strength.
A total of four games are required. Although they are all single-win games, it is also an endurance competition. Who can't hold on first?
Learn to think and achieve victory in the least simple way.
Save enough energy for the next battle until the final victory!
Fights between ninjas don't give people much time to rest. Often a new round of enemies will appear before one round of enemies is dealt with.
The ranking match is also a simulated ninja war, but it is another war mode.
Since the area B arena ends at close to two o'clock in the afternoon, the ranking match has been postponed until early tomorrow morning.
One night's rest is enough for fourteen promotion candidates to recover their physical strength.
…
On a thunderstorm night, Xili was lying under the eaves to rest after eating enough for twenty people.
Suddenly he heard a thunderous explosion, and a thought flashed through his mind.
"Izumi I'm going back first, see you tomorrow!"
After the words fell, without giving Quanmei a chance to speak, Xili disappeared in a flash.
Quanmei, who was helping her mother clean up in the kitchen, heard the sound and ran out quickly, but only saw the back of Xili disappearing into the darkness.
"Xiao Xixi, don't be late tomorrow!"
"knew!"
In the forest clearing at the highest point of the mountain behind Konoha, thunder pierced the sky from time to time, illuminating the dark night sky brightly.
After the last practice session, Xili clearly felt that his internal organs were strengthened.
This is not an illusion, this is what really happened.
If there was any accident that day, it was that I was struck awake by lightning in my sleep.
Two questions.
One is why he was struck by lightning and suffered no damage except paralysis. The other is is it really because of being struck by lightning that his internal organs were strengthened?
If these two issues can be clarified, Xili feels that his path to becoming stronger will not be so confusing!
"Let's try it with the shadow clone first!"
Xili formed a seal with his hands and wasted a lot of chakra to create two shadow clones.
Then he pointed to an open place and said to one of the shadow clones, "Go there and lie down and sleep."
"Where are you sleeping during a thunderstorm? You're going to be struck by lightning!"
The shadow clone complained and walked over anyway.
Seeli was worried that the lightning might hit it crookedly, so he specially prepared a long metal lightning rod and inserted it into the open space.
After doing all this, he glanced at the flashing lightning above his head, and then quickly escaped into the woods a hundred steps away.
Now it depends on when this thunder will fall.
"Sleep how to do?"
The shadow clone lying next to the lightning rod suddenly opened his eyes and asked.
Hearing this, Xili's eyes twitched, this was indeed a problem.
After thinking for a moment, he hurriedly spoke.
"Close your eyes and don't think about anything. Relax your body and stay in a state of emptiness."
Boom!
The lightning flashed like white snakes swimming on the black screen, and the deafening thunder heralded the coming downpour.
Seelie was not made to wait too long.
boom!
Above the Nine Heavens, a sky thunder split the night into two, and then fell straight into the Nine Heavens and struck the mountains behind Konoha.
The lightning rod played a key role at this moment.
Click!
With a flash of lightning, the shadow clone lying on the open ground instantly turned into a cloud of smoke.
The information was also fed back to Xili's mind instantly.
“So that’s how it is”
…
Under the same thunderstorm night, in a dark forest outside Konoha Village.
"Danzo-sama, people have brought it."
Two root members wearing ghost-face masks flashed and appeared in the dark forest with a kid about six years old.
Upon closer inspection, it is not difficult to find that this kid is one of the people who were promoted in Area D during the day!
Boom!
A flash of lightning illuminated the dark night and a figure in the forest.
"Ichimura Shimura, I need your power."
"Yes, Lord Danzo!"
The kid named Shimura Itto was kneeling respectfully on the ground, his expression surprisingly calm, and he didn't look like a six-year-old kid at all.
"Kill that bull-headed brat in tomorrow's game. This can help you."
"yes!"
No questions asked, no hesitation.
Shimura reached out his hands and respectfully took a dark pill.
Boom!
Another thunder flashed!
There was nothing in the dark forest, and there was no trace of human beings anywhere.
