The Battle in Half a Minute

"Fight back? Do you think we'll give you that chance?" But as soon as Kurokawa finished speaking, the voices of Natsume Yuki and the others came from behind.

But then, Natsume Yuki's hands moved like phantoms, and amidst the shocked gazes of everyone present, she clasped her hands together and shouted, "Water Release: Water Wave!"

Natsume Yuki's mouth instantly swelled up, spewing out a huge wave that surged towards Kurokawa and the other two, directly interrupting Fuyun's actions.

"Retreat!"

Upon seeing this, Kurokawa and his two companions quickly retreated again, but they didn't see Nakamura Shota smile.

A terrifying aura suddenly erupted from him. His hands completed a hand seal in less than two seconds, and a burst of violent lightning shot out from his body, covering the ground beneath Kurokawa and the others.

"Lightning Release: Gratitude Wave!" Nakamura Shota whispered.

"Not good!"

Upon seeing this, Kurokawa and his two companions' pupils shrank, but they were already unable to take any action.

"Ah!!!"

The three of them fell into the lightning and let out painful screams.

The lightning only lasted for two seconds before stopping.

Natsume Yuki immediately leaped forward, drew her sword, and held it to Kurokawa's forehead. Looking down at the three of them, she calmly said, "Sorry, we won!"

"You won?"

"You won just like that?"

"No way, Team 1 lost like that?"

When this result was announced, everyone present was stunned.

How could this be? This is too fast!

When did Team 1 become so weak? They lost in less than half a minute at the start.

"They completely controlled the rhythm. Kurokawa and the others deserved to lose. Ye Liangnai, how did you teach them? How did these three get so much stronger in just one month?"

Yagura looked at Natsume Yuki and the other two with admiration, and asked Ye Liangnai beside him.

"It's very simple. I just helped them solidify their foundation, and the rest will naturally fall into place!"

Ye Liangnai shrugged and said calmly, "Over the past month, I first improved their precise control over Chakra, then improved their hand seal speed, then trained their rhythm control, and finally, through non-stop battles, I made them integrate all of what they had learned into their lives, turning it into an instinct!"

"Now, they can use their precise control over Chakra to amplify their strength, speed, and even agility! Based on their Chakra control and faster hand seals, they can unleash Ninjutsu that is both fast and powerful, and their strength has already undergone a dramatic transformation!"

"Winning is just the natural thing to do!"

After hearing Ye Liangnai's explanation, Yagura could only say: I believed your nonsense, you old geezer.

He was certain that the real answer was definitely more than what Ye Liangnai had said.

The improvement of Natsume Yuki and the other two goes far beyond that. Their ability to control rhythm and coordinate Ninjutsu is far superior to that of their peers.

These factors combined are what led to their swift victory.

"Now no one should say that Xiao Ye's teaching methods are problematic! Facts have proven that Xiao Ye's methods are very effective. He is not practicing blindly and will not mislead his students!"

Seeing this, Mei Terumi couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"How was our performance? We did a decent job, didn't we? We didn't embarrass you, did we, Ye Liangnai- sensei!"

Amidst the shocked gazes of everyone Natsume Yuki and the other two returned to Ye Liangnai's side, asking with expectant expressions.

"Of course it's passable. All your hard work over the past month has paid off. Don't you feel a great sense of accomplishment?" Ye Liangnai replied without reservation.

"Not bad, not bad, I'm starting to get the hang of it. If the Team 1 were a bit stronger, we could have had even more fun!"

Natsume Yuki shrugged helplessly, looking quite disappointed. Saki Mirako and Nakamura Shota both nodded in agreement.

But after hearing their words, everyone in the surrounding classes felt extremely depressed.

How much stronger can it get?

The Team 1 is already so strong, already at the top level, but they are still no match for you!

How strong do you have to be for me to have my fill? Don't go too far!

I know you guys are strong, but there's no need to belittle them like that. Wasn't Natsume Yuki's meaning quite clear? No one here could possibly fight!

"Looking forward to the individual competition against you. Next time, we will never lose like this again!"

At this moment, Kurokawa and his two companions approached Natsume Yuki and her two companions, and said with firm expressions.

"Okay, we'll wait. You'd better have a great time with us later!"

Natsume Yuki was completely unafraid and confidently accepted Kurokawa's challenge.

Kurokawa's gaze sharpened upon hearing this, and he said, "Then it's settled, Natsume Yuki!"

Naturally, their conversation attracted the attention of those around them, who all showed excited expressions after listening.

"Kurokawa vs. Natsume Yuki, hehe, interesting!"

"This is going to be a good show! I really hope that moment comes soon!"

"I can't wait!"

Inside the stadium!

"Round 2 individual battles, opponents will be assigned!"

The referee's voice rang out, and then a bunch of names started flipping across the big screen.

When the first pairing was announced, everyone stared in shock, their eyes widening with anticipation.

There's no other reason than that the first group to take the stage was the battle they had been looking forward to.

Natsume Yuki vs. Kurokawa!

Kurokawa had just challenged Natsume Yuki to a duel, and his wish came true immediately.

"It seems even the heavens want to see our battle. Well then, let's grant the will of heaven!"

Seeing this, Natsume Yuki sighed helplessly and said, "I'll give you half an hour to recover. I don't take advantage of people!"

Upon hearing this, Kurokawa's expression immediately turned sour. Natsume Yuki's words clearly implied that she looked down on him, which was something a proud son of heaven like him could not tolerate.

But he was indeed not in good condition right now, so he could only swallow his anger. He said with a cold look in his eyes, "Group strength does not represent individual strength. I advise you not to underestimate me!"

Upon hearing Natsume Yuki shrugged and spread his hands, saying, "How could I dare to underestimate an enemy like you? You're overthinking it!"

But her nonchalant attitude clearly showed that she looked down on people.

Kurokawa's face darkened even more, but in order not to delay the match, he could only swallow his anger, accept the medical-nin's treatment, and prepare for the battle in his best condition.

"Who do you think has a better chance of winning this battle? Natsume Yuki or Kurokawa? They both seem pretty strong, it's really hard to say!"

Someone raised a question, and immediately received responses from those around them.
