The Uchiha Training Dojo

(Please recommend and add to your favorites)

During this week, Shunren devoted himself to cultivating these three scrolls. Perhaps because he had been practicing Yin Release for many years, Shunren had a good talent for techniques involving spiritual energy.

I've basically mastered the Bubble Technique and can use it without any problems; the only thing I lack is proficiency.

The Uchiha Style Swordsmanship is a complete system of techniques that cannot be mastered overnight. Starting from the basics, Shunren only mastered the first few C-rank techniques.

The only thing Shunren hadn't figured out was the Mirror Heaven and Earth Change; he hadn't even grasped the basic method. But thinking about it, it made sense. Such a powerful technique as the Reversal of Genjutsu couldn't be learned so easily.

During this time, Shunren's eyes had fully recovered. Perhaps because he originally possessed a certain amount of Uchiha blood, the transplanted Sharingan was surprisingly not rejected by him.

Another thing is that the Uchiha leadership has officially announced that Uchiha Shunren has been granted the status of a core disciple.

The spacious dojo was divided into as many as twenty training platforms, each with a small barrier constructed in the form of incantations for emergency protection. Compared to the cramped dojo of the Yuhi Clan with only four platforms, the two were clearly not on the same level.

One of the rights possessed by core Uchiha disciples is access to their training grounds.

Shunren looked around and found that young Uchiha disciples were practicing enthusiastically on each training platform.

This isn't a friendly competition; it's a real, all-out battle. Ninjutsu techniques and hidden weapons are allowed, except for Explosive Tag, which are strictly prohibited.

"Fire Style: Phoenix Flower Jutsu!"

Faced with the bombardment of multiple fireballs, the man used Body Flicker Technique to dodge, but his movement was seen through by his opponent, who predicted his trajectory, and he was hit by a fireball.

"Sizzle!"

Just as the blazing fireball was about to strike the man, the four pillars at the corners of the training platform suddenly emitted light. An emergency protective spell was activated instantly, and a white light barrier gathered around him to form a Chakra shield, blocking the direct attack of the fireball.

"Alas, I lost..." On this training platform, as long as a certain level of danger is reached, the barrier will be triggered to protect the person from harm. However, since the barrier has been triggered, it means the contest has failed, and the loser leaves the stage dejectedly.

Shunren's eyes flickered. He thought that cultivating in such a barrier meant he could fight as he pleased, because even if he used ruthless methods, it wouldn't matter, since the barrier would protect him from any unexpected events.

Real combat is often the fastest way to improve one's strength. The Uchiha, which already has an absolute advantage in terms of bloodline, coupled with such a good training environment, it's no wonder that the Uchiha has been able to produce elites year after year.

Shunren had spent some time at Hong's dojo practicing Genjutsu. From his daily conversations with Hong, he also learned that such a training place required considerable funds for construction and maintenance, and could not be used for a long time without substantial financial resources.

The fact that the Uchiha alone possesses such a large training ground demonstrates the immense resources and power they have!

This is also what the Shunren needed.

After looking around, Shunren found no empty cultivation platforms; they were all in use. He decided he should go early the next day.

However, just as Shunren turned to leave the temple, his ear twitched, and then his head tilted to the side.

"Ding~" A Kunai grazed his head almost.

Shunren's expression remained unchanged as he turned his gaze to the direction in which the Kunai had been projected.

On the third training platform in the east direction, there stood only one person, a boy who looked to be about twelve or thirteen years old, with a hooked nose and a face that... Shunren felt he had seen somewhere before.

"Yo~ Newbie, how about coming up here and having some fun?" The young man, holding two Kunai between his fingers, stood on the platform, looking down at Shunren with a superior air, and said with a smile, "Judging from your expression, it seems you do recognize me. Well then, I don't need to waste any more words; you should understand why I've brought you here."

Shunren suddenly remembered that the boy in front of him looked very much like Uchiha Mangshan; one glance was enough to tell they were brothers. So things were simple: Shunren had recently given the unruly Mangshan a good talking-to, and the boy was clearly here to cause him trouble.

With everyone watching, he had no way to avoid it, and if he wanted to cultivate in the dojo, he had to get rid of some unnecessary trouble.

Thinking of this, Shunren decisively walked towards the cultivation platform where the other party was.

"You've got guts! For your courage, I'll give you my name: Uchiha Yuta!"

Shunren ascended the cultivation platform, and with his keen senses, he could clearly perceive the barrier surrounding him.

"Shunren." He succinctly announced his name according to etiquette, and then Shunren formed the Seal of Confrontation.

"Good mentality. It seems even if I told you I'm Chunin right now, hearing that wouldn't sway you, would it?" Yuta sneered, then, without further ado, beckoned to him, "Try attacking. I'm afraid that once I make a move, you'll never have another chance!"

Upon hearing this, Shunren strode forward and charged straight at the enemy.

"Konoha Whirlwind!"

A powerful, sweeping kick flew straight at Yuta's head.

Yuta blocked Shunren's leg strike with one arm, and at the same time, he clenched his fist and grabbed Shunren's ankle, then lifted him up and slammed him hard to the ground.

Shunren, however, was very agile. He tightly wrapped his arms and legs around the other person's arms, making it impossible for the other person to break free from his control.

Then Shunren used his remaining hand, clenching his five fingers into a fist, and punched the other person in the chest.

"Smack~"

Yuta grabbed his fist with his other hand, a sinister smile playing on his lips. "Let me borrow your hand."

"Huh?!" Shunren felt as if his five fingers were glued to something, and no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't break free from the other person's restraint. Moreover, he was forced to join the other person's fingers together to Hand Seals, following the other person's movements.

Fingers intertwined, oh!

"This seal..." Shunren immediately realized that the other party wanted to use his hand to complete the Ninjutsu hand seal. He prepared to shake off the other party's hand, but Yuta grabbed him like a leech, forcing him to forcefully form the Hand Seals again.

Thumbs overlapping, left thumb on top, Chen!

Shunren simply clenched his five fingers tightly, giving the other party no chance to grasp them.

Yuta clenched his fist and punched Shunren hard in the stomach, while using his other hand to pry open Shunren's palm and forcefully form Hand Seals again.

In addition to straightening the little finger, the other four fingers of the hand gently make a fist, Mao!

With a bent-over high kick, he sent Shunren flying, his hands completing the final hand seal, Yin!

He puffed out his cheeks, releasing the scorching Chakra that had accumulated in his chest into his throat in one breath.

Fire Style: Dragon Fire Technique!

The linear fire shockwave was incredibly fast and destructive, so much so that Shunren, who was kicked away, was completely engulfed by the flames before he could even react!

Strangely, despite the dangerous attack that Shunren was under, the protective barrier on the cultivation platform did not activate.

Shunren's body was burned without leaving a trace of ashes; it was completely vaporized.

"Crack~"

The image freezes here.

"Shouldn't it be about time to end these tricks used to fool children?"

The flames disappeared, and even the sweltering heat in the air vanished. On the training platform, Shunren and Yuta stood unharmed, having not moved an inch from the beginning.

"The Genjutsu has ended." Shunren, his hands forming a mudra.

"Untie!"
