Not only were Obito and the others working hard to improve themselves, but Asuma, the only one on the team to advance to the third round of the exams, also wanted to pull ahead within a month.
However, Asuma did not know where Mu Yue lived, so after school on Monday afternoon, he waited for Mu Yue at the entrance of the Ninja Academy.
The moment he saw Mu Yue walk out, he immediately greeted him.
Mu Yue responded with a smile, having roughly guessed why Asuma had come looking for him.
After all, there should not have been anything else he would specifically seek him out for at this time.
"Mu Yue-sensei, do you have time to help me come up with a special training plan? I feel like I only have a chance of beating Obito if I train with you." Asuma asked somewhat awkwardly.
Though saying so was a little hurtful, his jonin instructor was indeed far behind Mu Yue. If he spent this month training with his jonin teacher, then he would definitely have no chance but to lose.
"I do have some ideas for improving your strength in a short time, but defeating Obito will still be very difficult," Mu Yue answered tactfully.
It was not that Asuma was weak, but Obito had already surpassed the level of an ordinary chunin. He had the Sharingan and could activate the Marked State, even if it was not the complete version.
Even if Asuma's strength improved greatly over the month, he still would not be Obito's opponent, because Asuma specialized in Wind Release and Fire Release.
For someone their age to defeat Obito, they either needed elemental advantage like Mei Terumi, or they had to be another disciple who received Mu Yue's daily guidance just like Obito.
