Disciple Shisui Uchiha trained diligently, achieved perfect results in the Chunin Exams, and was promoted to chunin. Reward obtained: Chakra +1800, Random Kekkei Genkai Extraction Scroll.
Although Shisui had taken first place much more easily than Kakashi, the system rewards were no different. Mu Yue concluded that, just like the Ninja Academy exam rewards, the Chunin Exams rewards were fixed and distributed according to rank.
