Uchiha Sasuke was startled by these words and instinctively clenched his fist.
His older brother, Itachi Uchiha, was once the top student in the entire school, and was invincible against all students in every grade.
And now, he has that opportunity too.
But... it's difficult.
Sasuke Uchiha felt the pressure.
He's not even first in his class, how can he compete for first in the whole school?
However, he is not without hope.
As long as he can activate the two-tomoe Sharingan before the student council selection competition.
"You can think of it that way."
Kitazawa couldn't help but smile and said.
"In the name of youth, I must win first place in the whole school this time!"
Naruto Uzumaki said excitedly.
"Although you are very good, there are fifth and sixth graders participating in this selection."
Kiba Inuzuka couldn't stand his arrogance and poured cold water on him, saying, "They've studied for four or five years longer than you, and their strength is unfathomable."
"What does that matter?"
Naruto Uzumaki said nonchalantly, "No matter who the opponent is, just defeat them!"
"Hmph, you just wait and see, don't let yourself be defeated by me!"
Kiba Inuzuka thought of the new secret technique Kitazawa had told him and couldn't help but say something.
"I won't hold back!"
Naruto Uzumaki said with a big smile.
When did your teeth become so confident?
Nara Shikamaru asked, puzzled.
He couldn't understand how Kiba Inuzuka, ranked seventh, dared to speak so harshly to Naruto Uzumaki, ranked first.
"Perhaps it's related to Kitazawa-sensei's new special training."
Yamanaka Ino pondered and said, "Ki has been undergoing solo training at the artificial lake recently."
"No matter how powerful Kitazawa-sensei is, he can't let Kiba defeat Naruto, right?"
Choji Akimichi asked uncertainly.
"Although Naruto is very strong, Kitazawa-sensei is not bad either."
Shino Aburame adjusted her glasses and said.
"When did you become so trusting of Kitazawa-sensei?"
Sakura Haruno asked, puzzled.
“I have always trusted Kitazawa-sensei.”
"Shino Aburame said seriously."
Nara Shikamaru glanced at him subconsciously.
He did learn some of the truth.
Yesterday, he saw a young ninja from the Nara clan at home, one he hadn't seen in a long time.
He had previously joined the Root and then disappeared without a trace, but unexpectedly returned to the Nara clan.
Out of curiosity, Nara Shikamaru asked his father, Nara Shikaku, and learned about Tsunade's forced entry into the Root base.
Although Tsunade's goal was to take down Root for Aburame, her standardization of Root's recruitment process benefited all the major ninja clans.
From then on, the Roots never dared to rob their clan's geniuses again.
At least that's how it appears on the surface.
Besides Tsunade, Kitazawa was also involved in yesterday's events.
The storyteller Kabuto, who tells stories in the morning, also confirms this.
This is undoubtedly the reason for Shino Aburame's change of attitude today.
In fact, his father, Nara Shikaku, specifically told him yesterday that he must listen to Kitazawa at school.
"Quiet."
Kitazawa stopped their discussion once again, saying, "The student council selection practice will replace this semester's practical exam."
"what?"
The students in both classes were surprised once again.
However, there weren't as many surprises this time.
Since both are real-world scenarios and time is limited, combining them into one event is quite reasonable.
"This is to help you get used to the actual selection process in advance, and also to increase your strength and combat experience."
Kitazawa said with a smile, "I plan to conduct three practical tests per week between your two classes."
"This is good!"
Naruto Uzumaki immediately expressed his support.
Influenced by Matt Kay, he was obsessed with youth and fighting, and the real-world testing suited him perfectly.
"Trouble has finally come."
Nara Shikamaru sighed and said.
He wanted to escape, but he couldn't.
"pity."
Kiba Inuzuka wore a regretful expression.
He hasn't fully mastered the Shadow Clone Technique yet, and with no new secret technique in sight, he can't make a name for himself this week.
Even when facing Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki, he could only stand at attention and take the beating.
But he already had hope.
If you hold onto hope and wait patiently, he will eventually have a chance to turn things around.
"Real-world testing?"
A flicker of emotion appeared in Sasuke Uchiha's eyes.
Without the two-tomoe Sharingan, he probably still wouldn't be able to defeat Kurama Yakumo.
But against Naruto Uzumaki, you could try using genjutsu.
He was still puzzled by how Naruto had instantly dispelled his genjutsu last time.
Hyuga Neji looked at Uchiha Sasuke.
Kitazawa was referring to a practical test between the two classes.
In other words, there is a chance that he will become Sasuke Uchiha's rival.
He has now mastered the first ten of the Soft Fist: Eight Trigrams Sixty-Four Palms, and it's time to test its power.
As for Yakumo Kurama and Hinata Hyuga, they were relatively indifferent to desires and didn't react much.
"The practical tests are scheduled for Monday, Wednesday, and Friday."
Kitazawa announced loudly, "We'll begin our first practical test of the week today, using a random draw."
After he finished speaking, he took out a lottery box.
The reason for using this method was to facilitate his underhanded operations.
Chapter 168 Tsunade's Superhuman Strength Lesson
Drawing lots was a familiar process for students in both classes.
They would draw lots for each monthly practical exam.
Without Kitazawa saying anything more, they lined up and took turns drawing lots.
"I drew number 27."
After drawing his lot, Naruto couldn't wait to ask, "Who else got the same lot as me?"
The two classes together have more than seventy students, so the number of numbers that can be drawn is almost twice as many as during the monthly exam.
"I am number twenty-seven."
Sasuke Uchiha said expressionlessly, "Your opponent is me."
"It's Sasuke?"
Naruto Uzumaki immediately smiled and said, "Sasuke, let's have another youthful showdown!"
"Last time is last time."
With his hands in his pockets, Sasuke Uchiha said calmly, "I won't lose this time."
"Me too!"
Naruto's smile grew even brighter.
"Thank goodness I didn't draw you guys."
Kiba Inuzuka breathed a sigh of relief and said.
He had just looked at it once, and he realized that the numbers he, Nara Shikamaru, and Hyuga Hinata had drawn were all different.
"Looks like you got lucky this time."
Nara Shikamaru couldn't help but smile and said.
Don't get too excited yet.
Shino Aburame reminded her, "This is only the first round."
Kiba Inuzuka's expression immediately froze.
"Please come up, the two students who drew number one."
Kitazawa put away the lottery box and called out.
He only tampered with Naruto Uzumaki and Sasuke Uchiha; the others were drawn normally.
The two little boys slowly walked out of the line.
They came from different classes.
After a few minutes of competition, the boy from Class A of Grade 2 won the match thanks to his advantage of having studied for an extra year.
time flies.
Hyuga Neji, Aburame Shino, Haruno Sakura, and others took turns appearing on stage.
Since neither of them had encountered each other, they easily defeated their opponents.
The first round of practical exercises is coming to an end.
"The two students number 27, please get ready."
Kitazawa said with a smile.
The main event is finally here!
He made the dumplings specifically for this dish of vinegar.
Upon hearing this, Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki walked together into the arena.
"Go Sasuke-kun!"
The girls, led by Sakura Haruno, immediately became cheerleaders.
