The Chunin Ninja Exams End
This is Yemo's moment, basking in the attention and cheers of tens of thousands of people, and the adoration of countless others.
Looking up at the tens of thousands of people who stood up to cheer, scream, and shout his name, Yemo's heart was touched. No wonder so many people want to win the championship and become the victor. Only when you defeat everyone and stand on the stage can you experience this feeling, a feeling that cannot be described in words.
Hearing the earth-shattering cheers, Yemo subconsciously raised his hands, enjoying the cheers for the victor.
"Senior Yemo, you're so handsome! How can you be so handsome?"
"Look over here, Senior Yemo is looking at me, his eyes are so handsome!"
"These are real ninjas; those boys are pathetic."
In one section of the audience, where all the students were from the Ninja Academy, a group of girls stared at Yemo with hearts in their eyes, their hands clasped tightly together and their faces flushed with shyness, wishing they could run down to Yemo's side right now.
Because of the battle, Yemo's clothes were torn, barely covering a few vital parts. He was covered in blood, his face was black, and he looked like a beggar. But among the girls at the Ninja Academy, Yemo was the most handsome at that moment. Compared to the boys at the academy, Yemo was worlds apart. He stepped over all the geniuses and climbed step by step to the champion's throne. He was the knight who could protect them in their hearts.
As for the boys at the Ninja Academy, seeing the girls around them swooning over Yemo, these men were filled with envy, jealousy, and resentment. But they had to admit that Yemo was truly handsome, incomparably so.
Cheers and shouts continued to resound. Standing on this stage, basking in the spotlight, this moment felt like a dream.
He won, defeating the Yugito Nii and achieving success, finally ascending to the champion's throne.
Hearing the resounding shouts, the Third Raikage's face turned even more ashen than that of the Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, and the suppressed anger in his heart surged like a volcano.
The championship was originally a sure thing, but now it's like a cooked duck flying away. The Third Raikage is both angry and unwilling.
Seeing the Third Raikage's ashen face, the Tsuchikage Ōnoki smiled excitedly. As the saying goes, excitement is built on the suffering of others. He thought, "I wasn't so Kumogakure just now, thinking the championship was already yours. Now you've failed. Compared to the Third Hokage, Kumogakure 're still a step behind. The Cloud Village is just the mantis stalking the cicada; the Third Hokage is the true oriole, completely unfazed. He was confident all along."
Glancing sideways at the Third Hokage, the Raikage sneered, "The Hokage really has a good plan. I was wondering why he didn't object to us Kumogakure using the power of the Tailed Beast; it turns out he was prepared all along."
"Raikage, your Kumogakure already got a huge advantage by getting second place. The Chunin Ninja Exams are about talent and strength, not about using external forces. If you really follow the rules, your Kumogakure might not even be able to participate in the third exam. You should know when to quit while you're ahead. Even if your Kumogakure Chunin the Chunin Exams, it won't be recognized by everyone, and it's your Kumogakure's reputation that will be damaged." The Third had a good temper, but that didn't mean he was a pushover. When he spoke, every word hit the nail on the head and struck right at the Raikage's heart.
"You..." Upon hearing this, Raikage was furious and slammed his hand on the armrest, but when it came to actually saying something, he didn't know how to refute it and was speechless for a moment.
The Tsuchikage, Ōnoki, who seemed to thrive on chaos, mocked the Raikage, saying, "Raikage, if you're using external forces, don't complain."
"Tsuchikage, stop spouting nonsense. Your Iwagakure didn't even pass the second exam," the Raikage sneered.
Despite the Raikage's taunts, the Tsuchikage Ōnoki remained unperturbed, even laughing, "That's right. We Iwagakure aren't as shameless as you Kumogakure. If we lose, we lose. There's no need to resort to methods that rely on Tailed Beast. Raikage, Kumogakure isn't the only one with Tailed Beast."
The Mizukage joined in the mockery, saying, "Although none of our Kirigakure Jinchūriki are suitable for the Chunin Ninja Exams, when it comes to utilizing other powers, Kirigakure is no less capable than your Kumogakure."
"We Sunagakure are no less formidable!" the Kazekage said calmly.
Seeing that the four Kage had spoken, the Raikage suppressed his anger and looked down without saying anything. Besides not knowing how to refute them, there was also the fact that their Kumogakure's Jinchūriki to participate in the competition had clearly angered everyone.
The four villages of Iwagakure, Kirigakure, and Sunagakure all performed poorly in this exam, with none of them even participating in the final championship competition. Meanwhile, the Yugito Nii Kumogakure, who had little strength other than borrowing the power of the Tailed Beast, managed to take second place. Naturally, the three Kage were unhappy about this and thus joined forces to mock the Raikage.
Although the Raikage was furious, he understood that even if he remained defiant, how could he face the four Kage? It was better to stop the topic there and, at worst, admit defeat verbally.
Thud... Thud...
A series of fireworks soared from the edge of the arena, rising hundreds of meters into the sky before exploding, filling the air with a dazzling array of multicolored light. Amidst the shimmering light, the four large characters Xuanwo Yemo Uzumaki) slowly appeared in the air, a congratulatory message for Yemo's victory.
"So beautiful!"
Many girls looked up at this beautiful scene, crossed their arms, and murmured their admiration, filled with envy. They wished their own names were displayed there.
The cheers lasted for several minutes before finally subsiding. Afterwards, except for Sasori of the Red Sands, and Hozuki Mangetsu, all the contestants who participated in the third exam went up to the stage. The ten of them stood in a row, and they were all the most outstanding Shinobi World in the world.
Next, the five Kage who were watching the battle came down from the high platform. Under the envious gazes of tens of thousands of people, the five Kage personally helped the ninjas of their respective villages put on brand-new Forehead Protector.
Of course, since none of the Iwagakure teams passed the second exam, the Tsuchikage, with a livid face, stood there awkwardly, feeling like he had completely lost face today.
After the Forehead Protector were put on, Konoha, as the host, distributed prizes to the top six contestants of the third match. The first-place winner, Yemo Uzumaki, received the most valuable prize, followed by the second-place winner, Nii Yugito Nii, and then the third-place winner, Hozuki Mangetsu. Unfortunately, Hozuki Mangetsu was seriously injured and unconscious, so the Mizukage accepted the prize on his behalf.
Sasori of the Red Sands, Hizashi Hyuga, and Toroi were all eliminated in the second round, becoming the last three of the top six. Since the winners were not determined by who was stronger or weaker, all three received the same prize.
The prizes were sealed inside scrolls, and no one except the Third knew what they were, leaving everyone with endless speculation. Everyone was curious about what valuable prizes the top six would receive.
Clutching the scroll tightly in his hand, Yemo smiled excitedly with a slight upturn of his lips. Although he had enjoyed the cheers of victory just now, he thought about it afterward and realized that the title of "Shinobi World's First Genius" was nothing more than an empty name.
Unexpectedly, a prize appeared later, which was a pleasant surprise. Holding the scroll in his hand, Yemo couldn't help but want to open it and see what valuable prize the Third had prepared for the first place.
Having arrived here, after several days and attracting the attention of the entire Shinobi World, the Chunin Ninja Exams, the grandest event in the history of the Shinobi World, have finally come to an end.
Hundreds of geniuses from various villages competed on the same stage in an unprecedentedly grand event in the Shinobi World, which produced a large number of geniuses recognized by the Shinobi World.
