Chakra Detection

In the classroom

Iruka held the detector and addressed the students. "Students, what I'm holding is a Chakra Detector. It can detect your Chakra attributes and purity."

"Not only can the Chakra Detector identify your Chakra attributes, it can also measure Chakra purity. The higher your Chakra purity, the more times the detector will sound, with a maximum of nine sounds!"

"Students who make the detector sound one to three times can receive guidance from a Chunin."

"Those who make it sound four to five times can receive guidance from a Jonin."

"Those who make it sound six to eight times can receive guidance from an Elite Jonin."

While the students absorbed Chakra, Iruka explained the rules.

Just then, a black-haired boy stood up and looked coldly at Iruka. "Then what if the detector sounds nine times?"

"Uh... well, Sasuke, so far, Konoha has never produced a genius capable of making the Chakra Detector sound nine times. But if such a one-in-ten-thousand genius appeared, then according to the rules, he would be named Konoha's Number One Genius and personally guided in his training by the Hokage!"

Iruka smiled at Sasuke.

Xiao Yun was startled. He hadn't expected Konoha to have something like this. He didn't remember this scene from the Naruto manga!

He wondered how many times he could make this detector sound. After all, he was a man who had awakened the Chakra Evolution System.

"Obviously, I'm the one-in-ten-thousand genius!"

At that moment, an extremely arrogant voice rang out beside Xiao Yun. A blond, blue-eyed boy stood up.

Naruto Uzumaki!

Everyone turned around and looked speechlessly at the incomparably confident boy before erupting into thunderous laughter.

"Where does the perennial dead last get that confidence?"

"Hmph! What an idiot. He just likes attracting attention this way."

"If I were him, I'd be thinking about what to do if it didn't make a single sound."

"I heard he likes Ichiraku Ramen. Opening a ramen shop would suit him better!"

"Quiet!"

Iruka frowned slightly, a trace of anger appearing on his face. These students really didn't know the meaning of caring for one another.

At his words, all the students immediately shut their mouths in fright. Seeing this, Xiao Yun couldn't help sighing. It seemed that in any world, a homeroom teacher's authority was unquestionable.

"Now we'll begin the Chakra detection. When your name is called, come up to the podium. First, Gangban Dingchuan. Please come up."

"Yes!"

A chubby boy hobbled over in short steps and placed his hand on the detector.

After a long while, the detector finally reacted. A flash of fiery red light appeared on its screen, followed by a sharp crack.

"Gangban Dingchuan, Fire Chakra. One sound, Level 1 Chakra purity."

Gangban Dingchuan returned to his seat looking disappointed. With talent like that, he would be lucky to become a Genin in this lifetime.

"Next, Meichuan Neiku."

Crack.

Crack.

"Meichuan Neiku, Water Chakra. Two sounds, Level 2 Chakra purity."

Meichuan Neiku beamed with joy. With Level 2 Chakra purity, as long as she trained properly, becoming a Genin would be practically guaranteed.

"Next, Zuogaowan Teng."

Crack.

"Zuogaowan Teng, Mixed Chakra. One sound. You do not possess the aptitude for ninja training. Please close the classroom door behind you on your way out."

"Waaah!"

The boy burst into tears on the spot, covering his face as he screamed, "Mom!" and ran out of the classroom as though flying.

Time passed second by second.

The eager expression on Iruka's face gradually turned into deep disappointment. There wasn't even anyone who had made it sound three times. Was this another class of trash?

"Iruka-sensei, it's my turn!"

Sakura softly reminded Iruka.

"Come on!"

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Crack!

Five sounds! It had actually sounded five times!

The classroom instantly erupted into an uproar. No one had expected this plain-looking girl to possess such high talent, and everyone looked at her with envy.

Iruka stared at Sakura Haruno in disbelief. She even had dual Water and Wind attributes!

She might not be a top-tier genius, but she was still a promising seedling!

"Sakura Haruno, Level 5 Water and Wind attribute Chakra purity. You're very good. Return to your seat."

Iruka gave her an approving look.

"Thank you, Iruka-sensei! I'll do my best!"

Sakura Haruno smiled like a flower, shooting Ino a provocative glance from the corner of her eye.

Ino smiled disdainfully, pointed at her own chest, then at Sakura Haruno's, and whispered, "Flat as an airfield!"

Sakura was furious. "Just you wait! I'll definitely find Lady Tsunade, one of the legendary Sannin, and ask her how to make them bigger!"

"Next, Sasuke Uchiha."

A long-lost smile appeared on Iruka's face. No matter what, there was finally one student who was decent enough.

The boy slowly walked up to the podium.

Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!

Seven sounds!

A full seven sounds, and it was Lightning Chakra.

"Wow!"

Everyone gasped in amazement. Iruka rubbed his eyes, hardly daring to believe the detector's display. Wasn't this attribute a little too outrageous?

Back then, even the Third Raikage of the Land of Lightning had only possessed Level 7 Lightning Chakra purity.

Heaven was blessing Konoha!

Excitement shone in Iruka's eyes. Ever since Konoha's Legendary Sannin had left and the Fourth Hokage had died in battle, Konoha had rarely produced any outstanding geniuses.

Sasuke's appearance was simply incredible news for Konoha.

"Wow, Sasuke-kun really is a genius!"

"He's handsome, powerful, and even has the Sharingan Kekkei Genkai! God, why do you give all the good things to one person? Can't you give me a little?"

"Sigh! Meipiyanzi, you should be content. You're gifted too, after all. You're only so young, yet you're already eighteen centimeters. I'm the truly miserable one!"

"Sasuke-kun, I want to have a baby with you."

"You little brat? You're already thinking about having children at your age? You'd better call your mother for that!"

Under everyone's envious gazes, Sasuke returned to his seat expressionlessly. His childish face carried a world-weariness that didn't match his age.

"Finally, it's my turn! Konoha's Holy Son, Naruto Uzumaki, has arrived!"

Before Iruka could call his name, Naruto rushed forward in a single stride and hurriedly placed his hand on the Chakra Detector.

After a long while.

"Huh?"

Naruto's eyes widened as he stared expectantly at the detector.

Five minutes later,

the detector still hadn't made any sound.

"You've got to be kidding! How is that possible? Report, Iruka-sensei, this thing is broken!"

Naruto held the Chakra Detector and looked at Iruka with complete confidence.

"Naruto Uzumaki, Chakra... sigh, Naruto, return to your seat!"

Iruka sighed. According to the rules, Naruto should leave the Ninja Training Class immediately, but he was, after all, the Fourth Hokage's son.

Forget it!

"Hahahaha!"

The students burst into laughter. A few of them had just been about to mock Naruto, but when they saw Iruka's stern gaze, they instantly shut their mouths.

Xiao Yun looked at Naruto in confusion. That wasn't right. The Nine-Tails was sealed inside Naruto's body, so how could this happen?

"Alright, today's Chakra detection ends here. Class dismissed!"

At that moment, Iruka announced the end of class.

"Um... Iruka-sensei, I haven't been tested yet?"

Xiao Yun stood up.

"Oh, Xiao-sang, I almost forgot about you!"

Iruka scratched his head awkwardly.

Actually, Iruka couldn't be blamed for this. Xiao Yun had entered the Ninja Training Class entirely through Tsunade's Back Gate.

After many ninjas died for the village, the village higher-ups would usually arrange a Genin position for their families and provide them with a government stipend.

Xiao Yun before him was probably in that situation. Having people like him participate in Chakra detection was merely going through the motions, to avoid giving others something to criticize.

"Alright, come over!"

Iruka secretly adjusted the Chakra Detector by two settings. No matter how terrible Xiao Yun's talent was, he would receive an evaluation of Level 2 Chakra purity.
