Getting to the key point, Hizashi immediately shook his head. "That naturally won't be allowed."
"Any training tasks not completed this week will carry over past Saturday and Sunday and be postponed until the following week."
Neji naturally understood what that meant.
As long as they failed to complete that week's tasks even once, they could basically forget about getting to rest early afterward.
And if they wanted to finish the week's tasks early—or even complete them on time—they would have to work especially hard.
It could be called an open scheme, but Neji did not care about that.
Finishing early was not difficult for him. He had always been a child who could endure hardship.
And even if he failed, there were still two guaranteed rest days each week.
"I understand, Father. Thank you and Uncle. I'm already very happy as long as I get time to rest."
"As for resting early, I'll work hard to achieve it."
Seeing his son so determined, Hizashi did not know what to say.
As the second-in-command of the clan, he truly did not want his son to be so outstanding. Yet Neji was currently the most talented child in the entire Hyuga Clan.
Many Elders intended to nominate Neji as the heir to the next clan head.
Even Big Brother would sometimes say how outstanding Neji was and that he would definitely be the clan's future heir.
But Hizashi did not dare take those words seriously. One careless move might harm his child.
Fortunately, Neji had not developed any particular thoughts because of what some Elders had said.
Hizashi had always warned Neji not to think of himself as the future clan head's heir.
He only needed to train properly and strive to assist the next clan head in the future. Being
