"Thump~"

"Impossible! Your eyes are clearly blindfolded, how could you see us?"

"Ah! No, even if you saw us, you shouldn't be like this. You took on two of us and still managed to kill us..."

Shunren slapped the two of them to the ground, looking bored, and said, "It's like the elementary school students are on holiday."

Even without using Yin Release, Shunren, having experienced two life-or-death ninja battles, could easily Genin with his Taijutsu alone. How much more so would he be able to defeat these two lackeys who haven't even left the academy?

Danzo's wartime mobilization plan aimed to eliminate those incompetent students who couldn't become Genin within three years. These two were likely to become Genin within two years, so they weren't included in the elimination list. However, even if they did become Genin, they would only be cannon fodder sent to the battlefield.

Shunren knew that such people had a low chance of survival if they were put on the battlefield, so he didn't punish them much.

"Is it almost over over there too?"

With his keen perception through his Mind's Eye, Shunren was able to judge the situation of the Genjutsu battle between Hong and Mangshan by Chakra fluctuations on their bodies.

The answer is that red has a slight advantage and holds the upper hand.

This was expected.

Mangshan became Genin a year earlier and had some combat experience, but comparing Genjutsu with Kurenai was simply asking for trouble. Although the Uchiha was also Genjutsu family, most of their powerful Genjutsu were visual Dōjutsu, which were not very effective for those without the Sharingan. The Yuhi Clan, on the other hand, specialized in Genjutsu.

Sure enough, after a while, Mangshan suddenly knelt down on one knee, panting heavily, his eyes filled with incredulous rage, "You actually..."

Kurenai was also breathing heavily; the Genjutsu battle had taken a toll on her. After all, she was still young and a woman, Chakra was her biggest weakness. However, regardless of the circumstances, Kurenai had emerged victorious in this Genjutsu battle.

"Hmph! You defeated bastard, watch your mouth!" Hong said, turning around. Seeing Shunren still sitting there with two lackeys lying at his feet, she immediately understood what had happened. She gave him a thumbs up. "Well done, Shunren! These arrogant young masters deserve to be taught a lesson!"

Shunren shrugged, indicating indifference, and sighed, "Let's go. Let's not play these childish games anymore."

Shunren habitually spoke with the mindset of an adult, but to outsiders, the words spoken by this child, who was not even ten years old, were full of sarcasm.

Hong wholeheartedly agreed with Shunren's "sophisticated satire," smiling as she said, "You're right! A bunch of boring guys, let's go."

"Damn it!" Upon hearing this, Mangshan's face turned a deep shade of liver with rage. He raised his head, his eyes glaring fiercely at Shunren and Hong's retreating figures. "Don't underestimate the Uchiha!"

Mischievous kids are prone to impulsiveness and acting on impulse.

After suffering a crushing defeat in the Genjutsu against Hong, and then being subjected to a "high-level sarcastic remark" from the Shunren, Mangshan, in a fit of rage, disregarded the fact that he was in a hospital, stood up, and skillfully formed hand seals: Si-Wei-Shen-Hai-Wu-Yin.

A surge of intense Chakra rushed from his chest to his throat, and then he opened his mouth and exhaled!

"Fire Style: Great Fireball Technique!"

A scorching fireball came from behind. Hong Wanwan never expected that her opponent would launch a sneak attack from behind after her defeat. Caught off guard, she instinctively reached out to push Shunren away, shouting, "Watch out!"

However, Hong's push passed right through Shunren's body—an illusion!

At the same time, the scorching fireball that was rushing towards them was instantly split in two and then slowly disappeared.

"What... what's going on?" Mangshan's eyes widened in disbelief.

Then he suddenly felt a chill coming from his neck. "Clang~" There it was, a sharp blade, cutting a shallow bloodstain on his neck. One more step and it would have severed his neck!

This caused Mangshan to freeze instantly.

"That's right, just like that, don't move." Shunren's indifferent voice came from behind him. "Didn't I tell you? Don't play these kinds of childish games anymore. Do you know you were wrong now?"

"Gurgle~"

Swallowing hard, Mangshan's eyes flickered. Young and proud, he was unwilling to bow down to the Shunren, but faced with the chilling sensation on his neck, he ultimately had no choice but to lower his head.

"I... I know I was wrong, please... please let me go." Mangshan was pale and sweating profusely.

Shunren smiled slightly, then sheathed his sword.

"Phew~" Mangshan subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief, but the humiliation he suffered made a venomous glint flash in his eyes.

However, at that moment, after Shunren sheathed his sword, he suddenly raised it without warning and swung it down towards Mangshan's head!

"Aaaaaah!" Mangshan screamed in terror!

Mangshan's eyes widened in disbelief as he stared intently at the sword blade that cleaved down from above his head and into his stomach, momentarily forgetting to breathe.

"I can't feel any pain. Am I already dead?" He held his breath, and the lack of oxygen made his vision blurry.

However, at that moment, the Shunren before them vanished into nothingness without a trace, leaving only a single sentence behind.

Just kidding.

Mangshan froze instantly, and it took him a while to react. His legs went weak and he collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath.

Then, instinctively, he reached up and touched his forehead and then his chest, a feeling of relief washing over him washing over him washed over him. His voice trembled as he said, "I... I'm still alive?!"

Turning around to look behind him, he found that Shunren and Hong had already disappeared.

Mangshan's face twitched. "Damn it... was that all Genjutsu?"

"Beep~" Something was on her neck, and she instinctively touched it.

Seeing the blood all over his palms, Mangshan's heart clenched again.

This rollercoaster of experiences, with its highs and lows, completely shattered his arrogance and pride!

What happens to a spoiled child who's been mistreated?

Looking at his warm, damp pocket, Mangshan could no longer hold back and burst into tears.

He will remember this day forever.

After leaving and returning to the hospital, Shunren could still faintly hear the child crying and screaming in the distance. He couldn't help but shake his head, "Did we go a bit too far? He's just a child after all... Hmm, so please don't let him off the hook!"
