Chapter 18 Temporary Rules
The Yinfeng team, which had only been formed for a short time, had not completed a few tasks. If the three cobbled together members were not newbies, and the team leader Yinfeng recommended them, it would be hard to say whether they could become one of the six alternate teams.
The same fate as the Sound Wind Team was the Saya Team.
Unlike the Nekaze team, which was really looked down upon, Saya's team had the possibility to obtain formal qualifications. It was just that Saya wanted to try out Zi Luo's strength, and she didn't want to consume too many connections, so she fell into the alternate team.
It was already three days later when all the qualified genin teams completed their mission and returned to the village.
After another two days of rest, the preliminary test officially began.
Using the past few days, the Yinfeng team was ready.
Daimaru originally wanted to ask Saya for a list of all genin who participated in the chunin exams, but unfortunately he was ruthlessly rejected.
The moody eldest lady is troublesome. The previous transaction was obviously very smooth. Daimaru thought that the two of them had a good relationship, but they didn't expect to recognize each other in the blink of an eye.
Kankuro is still very generous, doing business is very straightforward, and he pays promptly and never defaults on payment.
The preliminary test rules were not announced until noon that day, and they would begin after the lunch break. The final quota would be decided in just a few hours.
Holding the announcement and personnel list in his hand, Daimaru breathed a sigh of relief.
"It's interesting to have a wheel battle that takes into account both the individual competition and the overall strength of the team!"
The rules of the battle are very simple. After selecting the challenge team, a one-on-one battle will be used to determine the winner. The winner will continue, and the loser will replace others and continue fighting until all three players on one side are defeated and disqualified.
The team that succeeds in the challenge is directly determined to pass the Konoha Village Joint Chunin Examination, and the team that fails will be directly removed from the exam.
The team that loses the qualification for the main selection will be equivalent to the alternate team and can get a chance to challenge. If it succeeds, the qualification will be locked.
"Qian, you are the first to fight, Yemu will take over, and I will be last."
"Can!"
Qian nodded in agreement,
"But which team are we going to challenge?"
"As long as it's not Temari's team, everything else is the same."
Yemu asked worriedly:
"It's so casual, does it really matter? We don't know much about other people!"
The members of the weak genin team who have always been hanging around, and the elites who are aspiring to take the chuunin exams are completely different circles.
Daimaru could name some of them, but he wasn't very familiar with them.
"this is nothing!"
Daimaru replied matter-of-factly,
"Just try your best. With me as the general manager, there will be no problem."
Judging from the rules of the battle, a team of three genin will win if the total strength is superior. However, as long as one genin is far stronger than the others, he can defeat all three of the opponent by himself.
Taking into account both the team and individual prowess, Suna Ninja's pragmatism is unmistakable.
As for the other several rules, they are to prevent one team from being maliciously targeted and challenged in turn, and to prevent individual teams from using off-board moves to enjoy the benefits.
Theoretically, all ten teams that qualify for the main draft may be challenged, or even challenged repeatedly.
It is not necessarily a good thing if you have no strength and are awarded the qualification for the main selection. The situation may be more difficult than that of the alternate team.
…
The sun was setting, and the hottest part of the day was over. Forty-eight genin candidates gathered together, and a dozen senior ninjas who presided over the test were present.
"I won't say any more. The challenger and challenger will follow the examiner into the corresponding training ground. The time limit is one hour. If the challenger fails to defeat the challenger within the specified time, he will be judged defeated."
The rules that were temporarily added by the person in charge, Ma Ji, made the candidates below tremble, and some couldn't help but whisper.
"Shut up! Being judged as a strong one but unable to defeat a weak one cleanly will make me question whether you are worthy of my respect. I have the final say in everything here, now...start!"
Gaara, Kankuro and Temari were at the front, and Daimaru, who was sitting on the challenger's side opposite, winked at Temari, but unfortunately he only received a cold stare.
No one challenges the three Kazekage children. On the one hand, they are outstanding in strength. The key is that no one dares to fight Gaara.
He was just taking the chuunin exam, and it would be an injustice if he was killed by Gaara.
The grouping has been decided, and the six alternate teams challenge different teams. It is not that the weak teams recognized by everyone are different. The real reason is that everyone is not very familiar with each other, and they are all picking teams they are confident about, and are not willing to fight with no information. A team of strangers try their luck.
What Team Nekaze encountered were three genin who looked unremarkable. They were dressed exactly the same as the other Suna ninjas, and it didn't feel out of place to change their faces.
"Do you know each other?"
Daimaru nuzzled at the three guys.
"Looking full of arrogance, it seems that he doesn't take us seriously."
"Who knows? Maybe they do look down on our strength!"
It was clear when I saw two little girls who seemed to be easy to bully, especially Nighteye, who didn't seem to be very strong. They judged themselves and others, and the strength of Daimaru, who regarded them as teammates, was also underestimated.
The team principle of Sunagakure Village does not consider the balance of strength. When the total number of ninjas is restricted, the elite training strategy is implemented very thoroughly. The strong will only associate with the strong, and the companions of the weak will certainly not Too strong.
The person who presided over the Sound Wind Team Challenge was a skinny ninja wrapped in a white tights. His face was covered with black cloth and his eyes were covered with goggles, making his face completely invisible.
Qian's first opponent had messy hair, a slightly stooped back, an inexplicable breathing valve, and a pair of iron claws tied to his wrists. The tips glowed with a blue light, which was obviously poisoned.
"Are you, a little girl as skinny as a chicken, the first one to die? If you are afraid, surrender as soon as possible. I, Uncle Fuchen, will show mercy!"
Qian's face was serious, and he solemnly covered half of his face with a fan, looking at his opponent warily.
"Fuchen? What a ridiculous name!"
Daimaru scoffed.
The people in Sunagakure Village choose names so casually. Most of them are similar to sand, wind, desert, various common beasts, or even children's toys, monsters and monsters. Among the people Daimaru knows so far, there are only a few exceptions.
Not only are their names rustic, but there aren't many people with surnames. There aren't many decent families anyway, and there aren't that many inheritances to inherit. It doesn't make much difference whether they have surnames to show off their lineage. Most of them form some interest groups to support each other like Saya's family. .
Of course, Sunagakure Village also has surnames.
Not long ago, Daimaru saw a little boy named Sorada with the surname Aoi on the list of ninja schools about to graduate.
The one in front of me called "Fuchen" is arrogant enough, but what about his strength...
"It's really terrible!"
