At four o'clock the next morning, Hayama got up and washed up. Today was the first day of the Chunin Exam. Although he was not the examiner for the first exam, he still had to arrive early to prepare some logistical work.

A large-scale examination with nearly two thousand people requires a huge amount of energy from the organizers. Those ninjas are all arrogant people. They will fight if they disagree with each other. They never know what it means to convince others with virtue. In addition,

The village provides food and resting places for these people, which is really a tedious task.

Today is Wednesday, and the Konoha Ninja School has not opened normally, because the Chunin Examination will be held here. Yes, the first test of the Chunin Examination is a written test, and it is a serious question, involving physics knowledge, mathematics knowledge, and wilderness survival knowledge.

, intelligence gathering knowledge, of course, the most important thing is the examination of leadership ability. Chuunin is the basic force of a ninja village. Experienced chunin often serve as team leaders in missions, so the aspects that need to be examined naturally need to be comprehensive.

Hayama can pat his chest and say that this set of test papers is absolutely very humane and can fully test the comprehensive quality of ninjas. Because the test papers are written by several of the best teachers in the Fire Country, they can 100% understand the thoughts of those people.

of death.

The time soon came to eight o'clock in the morning, and the genin of each ninja village stood on the playground under the leadership of their rival ninjas, waiting for Sarutobi Hiruzen to announce the start of the exam.

The huge playground was full of people. Hayama and Jiraiya stood on the high platform and looked down at the dark crowd. It felt like they had seen a gathering of school students in their previous life.

So many people gathered together, and they were all hot-tempered ninjas. They didn't like each other, and some friction was normal. But the maintenance of order in Konoha was not a vegetarian, and soon there were several members of the Uchiha clan.

The ninja stared with scarlet eyes and took away several troublemaking ninjas. What awaited them was naturally the punishment of the village rules.

With those few examples in front of them, many genin did not dare to cause trouble anymore, and they all shut their mouths and waited for the exam to begin.

Sarutobi Hiruzen slowly came to the playground under the protection of several Anbu. He first greeted the leader of the Ninja Village with a smile, and then began a long speech.

There is no doubt that Hiruzen Sarutobi's theoretical level is very high. He talks about various topics such as peace in the ninja world and the quality of ninjas without even reading a draft.

It was only at 8:40 that Sarutobi Hiruzen's passionate speech came to an end, and Nara Shikaku officially announced that the first exam had officially begun.

Many candidates came to the classroom in an orderly manner and sat down under the leadership of the Konoha proctor. Hayama and Jiraiya came to the control room with a smile and a cigarette, ready to appreciate the cheating techniques of the rookies.

Since it is an open and transparent written examination, cheating is of course prohibited. Unless you can avoid the ninja standing in the classroom to supervise the exam, you will be immediately deprived of the qualification to take the exam once discovered.

But that set of test papers is so tricky that 99% of the candidates are absolutely incapable of completing it independently. In this case, cheating seems to be the only option.

As soon as the exam started, Hayama saw through surveillance that several cheating ninjas were kicked out of the classroom. They used their personal experiences to tell those ninjas who were ready to cheat what would happen if they cheated. The atmosphere in the classroom became weird for a while.

Kakashi was in the seventh examination room. When he got the paper and wrote down his name and examination number, he was completely confused. This was all nonsense.

A shuriken is shot at you at an angle of twenty degrees. The wind speed in the air is ten kilometers per hour and the air humidity is 40. This shuriken will pierce your body within two seconds. Please prove:

Where are you located?

You caught a pheasant in the forest, but it only had a little salt on it. You asked: How to make a pot of chicken soup with good color and aroma?

Assume that you are a ninja who has sneaked into the Kingdom of Water. How would you sneak into the Mizukage's office and steal a confidential document?

Suppose you are a team leader and your team members are dying but there is no medical ninja and they are trapped in a tight siege. Question: How can you save the team members and complete the mission at the same time?

Kakashi finished reading all the test questions with a dark face, put down the test paper in his hand and sighed deeply, with ten thousand grass and mud horses galloping past in his heart. Not to mention whether there are really standard answers to these test questions, a genin asked him to sneak into the water shadow.

Are you serious about stealing documents from the office? There is also the question of making chicken soup. How can you make a pot of chicken soup with just a pinch of salt?

Isn't this nonsense?

Kakashi was speechless. He had worked hard for the Chunin Exam during this period. He practiced during the day and endured the exhaustion of his body at night to memorize a complete book of knowledge for the Ninja Exam. Now you show me this???

He wanted to slam the table and shout: I won't take the exam. But remembering Ye Shan's skinny face and not smiling, he held it back.

"Kakashi, please calm down and don't be impulsive. You are the strongest."

Kakashi silently recited these words of comfort to himself several times in his mind. After his mood calmed down, he picked up the test paper again, and then he became incompetent and furious again.

What the hell is this? Can anyone really solve these problems?

Kakashi lay on the table with his head in his hands, falling into self-doubt, when he suddenly heard the sound of writing. The sound was not loud but was quite harsh in the silent examination room.

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on the candidate sitting in the middle, with all kinds of thoughts in their minds.

Not long after, the ninja wearing a Konoha forehead protector filled out the test paper like a super academic, and then coolly greeted the invigilator and left the examination room, but the test paper was so blank.

Lying on the table without any cover, it looks very tempting.

Kakashi frowned in thought, and suddenly his eyes widened, with an expression like this. He was 100% sure that the ninja who handed in the paper was a trap, a trap that induced everyone to cheat, and this time

The purpose of the exam is only one, and that is to test everyone's intelligence gathering ability.

These are not difficult to understand. Kakashi does not believe that anyone can actually complete this devilishly difficult paper by his own ability. Unless he gets the standard answer in advance, even if the Sage of Six Paths comes, he will have to kneel down on the spot. And cheating is

Of course it is not allowed, but as long as you are not discovered by the invigilator, it is not cheating.

Kakashi understood, but he was also paralyzed because he was not a ninja who was good at gathering information. At least he could not guarantee that he would get the answer to the test paper under the noses of the two jounin.

Time passed by, and many ninjas who tried to cheat were found to have lost their qualifications for the exam. Kakashi became more and more anxious. Just when he was about to take the risk, a small note bounced on his desk.

Kakashi was startled and hurriedly covered the small piece of paper with his hand. He glanced at the two examiners from the corner of his eye and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he had not been discovered.

The ninja sitting on his left threw the small note and raised his hand to hand in the paper, and then left the examination room in a swagger. Kakashi then realized that he knew this person, but he didn't know the name. It was Uchiha.

A clan of people.

Dense cold sweat broke out on Kakashi's forehead. It was really exciting to pass a small note in front of two jounin. I really had to thank this person later.

When the two Jonin glanced away from him, Kakashi opened the small note with lightning speed like Tinker Bell. Suddenly his vision went black, and a stream of blood rushed to his head from the soles of his feet, making him

He looked a little frustrated.

There were not answers on the note, but just a few small words. There were not many words but they were full of irony: "You still want to get the first place?"

Well, this kind of operation is very Uchiha, worthy of those eyes that look down on the world.

Kakashi froze on the spot as if he had been struck by lightning. He suddenly became so angry that he almost gritted his teeth. He never expected that the other person sent the small note to mock him. Fortunately, he was just grateful to him.

"Hahaha"

Jiraiya saw all this clearly in the monitoring room and almost died laughing, even spilling the drink in his hand.

"Did you arrange this?"

Hayama also laughed, waved his hand and said: "It's not me, this kid is the second eldest son of the Keiji family. He is usually spoiled, but he acted like this in the examination room."

Jiraiya laughed again and said casually: "Kakashi, this kid has a knot in his heart. If he really cheated today, it would be a good thing."

Ye Shan nodded and said: "Sakumo's incident left a big shadow on him and even formed an extreme idea. You know this."

"He is your chosen Water Disciple, so I naturally have to pay more attention to him on weekdays." Jiraiya openly admitted his peeping behavior.

"Ninjas who don't follow the rules are not worthy of being called ninjas. Kakashi is really extreme."

There was no sound of conversation in the monitoring room. Obviously, Hatake Sakumo's incident not only left a shadow in Kakashi's heart, but also Hayama.

No matter how kind and generous Jiraiya is, he can't hide the fact that he is Sarutobi Hiruzen's apprentice. Naturally, Hayama will not talk to him in depth, so as not to offend others.

Kakashi gave up the struggle and no longer looked at the perfect score paper not far away from him. Instead, he lay on the table and closed his eyes to rest. For him, the note handed over by the Uchiha clan was not cheating.

, but an unexpected gain during the intelligence gathering process. If you open it and see, it is within the ninja rules, but if you really think about cheating, you will undoubtedly break the ninja rules.

Ye Shan sighed deeply in his heart, but his face still looked at the surveillance camera calmly, but a trace of disappointment flashed unnoticeably in his eyes.

It is true that ninja rules must be strictly followed, but that depends on the actual situation. Sometimes the rules must be strictly followed, and sometimes they are worthless. I don't know when Kakashi will realize this.

When the signal for the end of the exam was sent, Kakashi trembled and opened his eyes, preparing to accept the worst result. The two jounin who invigilated the exam stood on the podium, looked at the few people in the classroom, and said loudly

A warning was given to stop answering questions.

Then, those candidates who had handed in their papers returned to their seats and sat down. The examiner turned on the TV in the classroom, and Nara Shikaku's face appeared inside.

"First of all, I would like to congratulate everyone who is still sitting in the examination room. Congratulations on successfully passing the first exam and entering the next round."

Kakashi stiffened, suspecting that he had heard wrongly, and the others were also in an uproar.

"I know some people will be dissatisfied, and some people will be ecstatic. The purpose of this exam is two-fold. The first is to test your intelligence search ability, which I think you all know. The second is to test whether you can follow the rules

Ninja rules, strict requirements on yourself, after all, a person who does not follow the rules is not a qualified ninja."

"Finally, please go to the cafeteria and eat in an orderly manner. The second round of exams will begin immediately after the meal. I wish everyone excellent results."

There was no way out, but there was no way out. Kakashi experienced what ups and downs were in a short period of time. Tai Chi was so exciting that his clothes got wet.

Those who cheated and got perfect scores by relying on their own abilities must be dissatisfied and think that this exam is unfair. Why can those who handed in blank papers pass the exam?!

Seemingly sensing the dissatisfaction in everyone's hearts, a jounin who was invigilating the examination said in a cold voice: "You are not convinced?"

As he spoke, he took a heavy step forward, exuding an aura that made everyone in the classroom breathless.

"You guys remember, the rules are made by strong people. Since you don't have the strength to challenge, just obey me!"

"Don't think that your cheating methods can be hidden from the public. You are just a little smarter than those eliminated, but you can't hide it from my eyes. If it were really strict, you would have been eliminated a long time ago, do you understand?"

Everyone immediately became submissive and didn't dare to let out a single fart.
Chapter completed!
