After reading through all the questions on the entire exam paper, Shinki was stunned.

This... this...

Such a simple question!

So he began to write furiously.

Sakura's seat was not far from Shinki's.

Seeing the red-haired Shinki's confident expression upon receiving the exam paper, she figured the exam was unlikely to be difficult and began browsing the questions with great confidence...

First question, Code Decryption: "By following the principles of military strategy and pursuing the path of various skills and talents, one will be unparalleled in all things..."

What is this all about?!

Question 2, Physics: Parabola B in the diagram represents the maximum range of Ninja A's Shuriken at Seven Meters High on a tree. Predict and answer the following questions regarding the characteristics of the enemy Ninja appearing within the ellipse drawn by this Shuriken, its planned maximum range in a two-dimensional battle, and explain the reasoning behind it...

The second question also included a schematic diagram of a Horizontal Projectile Motion Model.

"..."

Sakura was already sweating profusely.

This is definitely not an easy question!

Upon seeing the Nine Questions on the exam paper, the other Ninjas in the room all showed expressions of difficulty.

Why are the Chunin Ninja Exams questions so difficult this time?!

Even the top students at the Ninja Academy struggled with calculations before finally managing to solve the first problem.

As a result, Shinki, who had been writing non-stop, naturally became the center of attention.

Everyone wanted to see the Red-Haired Kid's exam paper!

Meanwhile, after a difficult internal struggle, Sasuke decided to start cheating.

Although his grades in humanities were decent when he was at the Ninja Academy, that doesn't mean he could solve such difficult Chunin Ninja Exams questions!

Then.

Sasuke activated his Sharingan and used it to perfectly mimic Sharingan 'Shinki writing posture in his answer.

Halfway through the imitation, Sasuke himself was surprised.

How could Shinki write so fast!

Doesn't his math problem have a cooling-off period?!

Doesn't he even need to read the question aloud?!

And the handwriting is so neat and beautiful!!

This is definitely the type of student teachers like best!

Little did Sasuke know that in its previous life, the Shinki had been subjected to years of rigorous testing, transforming it into the shape that teachers particularly favored.

The examiner on the podium Ibiki Morino, also noticed Shinki, who was writing furiously.

This kid... how come he writes so fast?

It's even faster than the Test-Takers he specifically placed!

In fact, the questions in this Chunin Ninja Exams were extremely difficult.

It not only tested the knowledge reserves of all the Ninjas present, but also their detection and information gathering abilities.

Therefore, cheating is allowed, but it must be done in a way that is discreet and fits the identity of Ninja, making it an efficient form of cheating!

Therefore, Ibiki Morino placed two Test-Takers at two central locations in the examination room to write down the Correct Answers, so that Examinee could copy the Correct Answers.

But that Red-Haired Kid was even more efficient at solving problems than the Test-Taker knew the Correct Answers!

"Who is he?"

Ibiki Morino asked one of the Chunin beside him with great interest.

He noticed that the child was wearing a Konoha Forehead Protector and was pleased that Konoha had such a good student.

An examiner who knew Shinki introduced him, saying, "He is Shinki, War Orphan rescued from the battlefield. He is now a member of Kakashi Hatake's class and had excellent grades in the Ninja Academy."

"By the way, I heard this kid is a Ninjutsu genius; he's already learned and can use the Flying Thunder God Technique skillfully."

"What?"

Ibiki Morino's pupils contracted sharply, and his gaze turned to the Shinki with horror!

"He mastered an extremely difficult S-Rank Ninjutsu at just twelve years old!"

A huge wave of emotion surged within Ibiki Morino!

"It seems that Konoha has produced another genius."

The Chunin next to him chimed in, "Yeah."

Only fifteen minutes into the exam, Shinki had already finished answering all the questions.

His biggest worry right now is Naruto.

Looking up, Naruto sat in his seat, completely at a loss, scratching his head in frustration.

Go ahead and copy it!

Go ahead and copy it!

Shinki screamed inwardly.

Just then, the examiner on the podium spoke, "Numbers 12, 25, and 36 are eliminated. You three can leave."

Examinee number 25 stood up, dissatisfied, and said, "I didn't finish the exam, and I didn't cheat!"

"Yeah, I haven't even written a single question yet, how can you accuse me of plagiarism?"

Examinee number 12 continued.

"I didn't say you plagiarized; I said you're eliminated."

Ibiki Morino said sternly, "In this exam, if any one person in your group is eliminated, the entire group is eliminated. Your teammate, Examinee number 36, was caught cheating five times, and all 10 points have been deducted!"

"Therefore, I remind you again: do not insult the eyes of us examiners with such clumsy and inefficient plagiarism methods!"

After Ibiki Morino finished speaking, the entire examination hall fell silent.

Before Ibiki Morino spoke, Naruto had just been about to sneak a peek at Hinata's answer.

Now that he knows his elimination will also implicate Shinki and Sasuke, he's too afraid to move.

Shinki felt a sinking feeling in his heart after hearing those words.

It's over.

Ibiki Morino intentionally increased the psychological pressure on Examinee and raised the difficulty of the exam.

This makes Naruto's path of plagiarism even more difficult.

Is there any way to help Naruto finish this problem?

Shinki began to think.

Ideally, I could take the exam for Naruto myself...

As Shinki was pondering, a patch of sand appeared before his eyes, blinding him.

Before Shinki could even begin to rub the sand from his eyes, the remaining sand actually condensed into an eyeball in front of him!

Shinki: "???"

What kind of amazing cheating method is this?!

Should I just let my eyeballs fly out and steal them?

Shinki is a righteous person, and he dislikes two types of people the most during exams.

One type is the person who copies others.

The other type is the person who prevents him from copying.

So, Shinki decisively raised his hand and slapped the eyeball formed from sand until it burst.

"Bang!"

"Ah!"

Just as Shinki's palm struck, Gaara, who was in the corner of the classroom, let out a cry of pain.

Ibiki Morino asked, displeased, "What's wrong?"

"It's nothing, just some sand in my eye."

Gaara covered his eyes, blood seeping from the corners, and gritted his teeth as he spoke.

Ibiki Morino's mouth twitched.

How big of a grain of sand could irritate your eye like this, causing it to bleed!

However, since the Examinee didn't say anything, he would pretend nothing had happened.

After asking Gaara, Ibiki Morino turned his gaze to Shinki: "What's your question? Why did you suddenly slam your hand on the table?"

"I'm sorry, teacher." Shinki stood up and honestly replied, "I just saw a mosquito on the table and couldn't help but swat it..."

"Okay, don't do that again next time. Don't make noise during the exam, it will disturb others."

Ibiki Morino warned.

Shinki nodded obediently again. "Teacher, I understand. I won't do it again next time."

Gaara, hiding in the corner, heard Shinki's words and gritted his teeth in hatred.

Damn it, this guy actually called his eyeball a mosquito!
