Chapter 111 Chunin Exams
Inside Konoha Hospital, Hoshino Senju uses his shadow clone to stand in for patients, while Shizune and Rin, the two "little doctors," follow along, observing and learning attentively.
His physical body remained in Tsunade's office, studying medical books, focusing on his training, and incidentally guiding Hanfang and Hyuga Tetsuya.
The four people were divided into two groups and took turns on schedule.
The morning passed in a flash.
After lunch, without taking a break, he led the four men straight to the fourth training ground.
At the entrance to the training ground, two Chunin were on guard, checking to prevent unauthorized personnel from entering.
After the medical team passed through, a well-prepared team battle arena appeared before them, bustling with people.
These Chunin Exams, held every six months within Konoha, have a fixed procedure.
Compared to the Chunin Exams, which involved multiple countries in the original story, this one was much simpler in terms of scale and examination procedures.
The area is about fifty meters long and forty meters wide, with three large trees, some rocks, and a two-meter-wide water channel scattered throughout—clearly prepared for different fighting styles and escape techniques.
On the east side is a stepped viewing platform built with earth-style techniques, about twenty meters long and three meters high, for the genin waiting for the competition, their instructors, and the proctors to watch.
Behind the stands, there were two dark green tents.
At this moment, the open space below the tiered stands was filled with people, namely the genin team that had passed the written test and their instructors.
Xingyuan Qianshuo led the four of them closer to the crowd and immediately spotted Xi Ri Zhen Hong, who was busy at work.
When Yuhi Shinku saw Chisaku, she nodded slightly in greeting.
His expression paused briefly when his gaze swept over the four "little doctors" beside him, but he quickly returned to normal.
Xingyuan Qianshuo looked around and saw that there were about 130 or 140 people on site, which could be converted into about 30 small teams.
Yesterday, I heard from Senior Shinku that during wartime, when manpower is scarce, Chunin are promoted urgently based on their merits in battle; during peacetime, the number of people allowed to pass through is gradually restricted.
Therefore, whether one can become a Chunin is not only a matter of personal strength and experience, but also depends on the actual needs of the village.
In the crowd, he immediately spotted Kakashi with white hair and a mask, as well as the wolfhound girl Inuzuka Tsurugi and her two teammates.
He silently observed the group of examinees, while the genin were also sizing them up.
"Is that a medical ninja?"
"Wow, so young! — Have you graduated yet?"
"Can they heal the wounds?"
"I don't even dare to go on stage anymore. What if I end up with a disability?"
The hushed conversation gradually spread and turned into a cacophony of whispers.
The genin, already tense from the exam, used this opportunity to release their emotions.
Xingyuan Qianshuo naturally heard these discussions.
He didn't want the existence of the medical team to affect the exam organized by Senior Shinku.
After a moment's thought, he formed a mudra with his hands, crossing them in a cross shape—
"Bang!"
Three figures suddenly appeared beside him.
The medical team suddenly expanded in size, changing from "one large and four small" to "four large and four small".
The discussion at the scene abruptly ceased.
After a moment of silence, the genin pretended nothing had happened and turned their attention back to their opponents.
Seeing this, Yuhi Shinku's lips twitched involuntarily. Only at times like this would Chisaku reveal a carefree side befitting his age.
He quickly gathered all the instructors forward, then stepped up the stone steps, looked down, and said in a deep voice, "Quiet."
The genin who were still whispering immediately fell silent and all looked over.
"After the theoretical written test this morning, a total of thirty-four genin teams have passed. Now, we will conduct the lottery ceremony for the team battle competition."
He took a wooden box from his subordinate and said, "The box contains a seal to prevent X-ray vision and perception, and thirty-four numbered tags. The instructor will draw lots: number one will play against number thirty-four, number two against number thirty-three, and so on, with number seventeen playing against number eighteen."
After he finished speaking, his bright red eyes swept across the entire room, exuding an undeniable air of authority.
After a moment, the announcement continued: "Now, please have the supervising teachers come forward to draw lots and register."
The instructors quickly finished drawing lots and returned to their respective teams to discuss the results in hushed tones.
These instructors were not all Jonin; many of them were elite Chunin.
To be mentored by a Jonin, one usually needs to be an elite member of the Ninja Academy or an outstanding member of any clan.
At that moment, Nohara Rin spotted Kakashi in the crowd, and couldn't help but gasp softly, her cheeks flushing slightly as she followed him intently.
Kakashi, the white-haired boy, was noticeably shorter than the older examinees around him, yet he possessed a cool and aloof demeanor that made him impossible to ignore.
Shizune also noticed Kakashi, her gaze pausing slightly, a look of surprise on her face.
"Teacher, isn't Kakashi already a Chunin? Why is he also participating in the exam?" Shizune asked.
"Yes, his teammates are still genin, so they can participate together. The key is how his teammates perform in battle," Hoshino Senju explained.
Kakashi had already spotted the striking white-clad figures of Xingyuan Qianshuo and his group in the crowd.
However, with teammates around, it was inconvenient to go up and say hello.
When he saw Nohara Rin, Shizune, and the others looking at him, he simply nodded slightly in greeting.
Kakashi's mentor was a special Jonin in his thirties who wore black-rimmed glasses.
After returning to his team, he bowed slightly apologetically and said, "Naho, Muramasa, the teacher had bad luck and drew number four. Our opponents are older than you, and there's also a member of the Hyuga clan."
"Stop! Teacher Muxi, you should be analyzing the opponent's information and giving tactical guidance, not apologizing." A female genin named Naoko Hosui interrupted him rudely.
"Naho, don't talk to the teacher like that. He's only thinking of us," the boy named Kamiki Muramasa retorted, shaking his head.
The scene of two ten-year-old children speaking earnestly, while the thirty-year-old special ninja Ise no Mokuki listens respectfully, is rather comical.
Kakashi was already used to the behavior of his teacher and teammates, and his expression behind the mask remained calm and composed.
"Hmph, Mr. Muxi, hurry up and analyze the opponent, the fourth draw is about to start."
Naho interrupted Muramasa, knowing that once she started arguing with this guy, it would only go on forever.
"Yes. I happen to know their instructors. One of them is skilled in Fire Release, another in ninja tool throwing and Earth Release, and the third is a Gentle Fist user from the Hyuga clan."
When the topic of intelligence came up, Ise no Moko's eyes sharpened slightly.
He has always been good at gathering information and never fights a battle unprepared.
Similar instructional scenarios were playing out in other groups, with teachers taking the time to give students instructions.
At this moment, after finishing the lottery registration, Yuhi Shinku instructed her subordinates and then walked towards Chisaku and the others.
"Qian Shuo, the combat test starts in fifteen minutes. How about using these two tents as medical tents?"
Xingyuan Qianshuo turned his head and looked at the two dark green tents on the side of the field. He didn't expect that they were prepared for them.
With his medical expertise, on-site treatment wouldn't take much time.
However, bringing seriously wounded soldiers into the camp for treatment would indeed be a better way to avoid disrupting the competition.
"Yes, we will definitely provide medical support."
"Haha, of course I believe in your abilities, Qian Shuo. The treatment is entirely in your hands."
"Don't worry, senior."
"it is good."
Kurenai Yuhi nodded, then looked at the four bewildered "little doctors" who were staring at him—about the same age as her daughter, Kurenai Yuhi, and some of them were even Kurenai's classmates.
He thought for a moment and said gently, "You four should also work hard and learn well from Teacher Qian Shuo."
"Yes, sir!" the four little ones replied quickly.
Shizune and Rin had already recognized from those bright red eyes that this was none other than Kurenai Yuhi's father.
After their conversation, Yuhi Shinku turned and left.
Xingyuan Qianshuo then led his students into the medical camp.
The interior was flat and spacious. He took out a scroll, unrolled it, formed a hand seal, and released a "Boom! Boom! ————"
The tent was suddenly filled with beds, mattresses, two stretchers, and a large medical kit.
He glanced at the three shadow clones beside him—standing together inside the tent, it was indeed a bit crowded.
He couldn't help but shake his head and chuckle to himself: "I really acted impulsively just now—but it's fine, my main body can stay here and watch the show."
"Jingyin, Lin, Hanfang, Tie, if any of them are unable to move due to lower body injuries, you will carry them in on stretchers."
"Yes, teacher!"
He left two shadow clones inside the tent, while the other followed him to the arena.
Four students carried an empty stretcher and followed along, looking quite professional, towards the competition area.
The venue has been cleared out under the organization of several proctoring ninjas.
The genin waiting to be tested all moved to the side stands.
