The shuriken and Three Body Techniques tests had been conducted many times as well.
But this was indeed the first actual combat test.
There had been sparring before, but that had only been practice.
Tests were scored.
The results of every test would affect whether they could successfully graduate from the Ninja Academy and become true genin.
"Alright, everyone, gather on the training field. Um..."
Tanaka Shuichi clapped his hands and called out loudly.
At the end, however, he suddenly became cautious.
"Kurenai, Rin, please take Yuu-kun to the training field."
Tanaka Shuichi looked at Yuu, who had not been listening to the lesson at all, and cautiously spoke to Kurenai and Rin.
He was helpless too; he did not dare discipline Yuu.
But the test still had to be held. After all, in the previous tests—whether shuriken, the Three Body Techniques, or written exams—
Yuu had scored zero on every single one.
Could you imagine a little drunk tossing shuriken around? Taking an exam?
During Yuu's shuriken test back then, the entire class had hidden over a hundred meters away.
They were terrified that the swaying Yuu might accidentally kill them with a shuriken.
But Tanaka Shuichi, as the Teacher, had no way to hide.
After all, as the Teacher, he had to stand near the targets to observe the students' shuriken-throwing technique and speed, then offer guidance.
The shuriken thrown with the strength of ordinary students posed no threat to him as a chunin.
But Yuu was different.
The shuriken he threw were faster and more powerful than Tanaka Shuichi himself.
If judged by lethality alone, Tanaka Shuichi would absolutely have given Yuu an excellent score!
But damn it, those shuriken had been coming straight at him!
He had not even had time to react before a shuriken sheared off a layer of his hair!
And the written test was even worse.
Yuu could not even hold a pen steady. He spent the entire class wrestling with the pen.
Yet when Yuu held a sword, his grip was rock-solid!
So Tanaka Shuichi could only ask Kurenai and Rin, who were relatively close to Yuu.
"Okay, no problem!"
"Mm! Teacher!"
Kurenai and Rin nodded their little heads, shooting each other competitive looks.
They took hold of one of Yuu's arms each, one on either side.
"Mmph, what is it? You two... here to drink with me?"
Yuu looked at Kurenai and Rin and mumbled.
"Fine, fine. You two are the only ones. I'm not letting anyone else drink."
As Yuu spoke, he picked up his bottle and brought it toward Kurenai's mouth.
"Y-Yuu-kun, you should drink it yourself."
Kurenai dodged away in a panic.
Though she loved the smell of alcohol, she still had to abide by the ninja's three prohibitions.
Besides, if she drank and her parents smelled it when she got home, she would be dead.
Getting scolded would be the least of it.
Her father would definitely figure out that she had stolen the alcohol. If he hid it even more carefully afterward, how was she supposed to steal alcohol for Yuu-kun anymore?
"What about you? Do you want some?"
Yuu did not force her. Though his mind was a little muddled, he still knew that Kurenai and Rin were the ones who often brought him alcohol.
If anyone else dared spoil his fun like that, the Shusui in his hand would definitely have already made zero-distance contact with them.
