Shadow Secret Technique: Clone allows for the summoning of 11 shadow clones in total. The first 10 function just like standard shadow clones, which, for Uchiha Sasuke, can only be considered a cheat code. However, this last shadow clone is truly formidable.

Not only does it possess half of the original's chakra, but it is also quite durable, meaning it won't dissipate the moment it takes a hit. Of course, what Sasuke feels is most useful is that this clone can swap positions with the original at any time!

This is somewhat unreasonable. As long as this skill is used well, doesn't that mean he can toy with his opponents? Furthermore, as long as this clone isn't destroyed, he can keep swapping positions indefinitely. If that isn't invincible, what is?

If he were to encounter an opponent who knows forbidden techniques in the future—for instance, if someone used Eight Inner Gates to kick a shadow clone, or if someone used the Dead Demon Consuming Seal to seal a shadow clone—wouldn't that be a disaster!

Just like that, the first class of the day passed amidst Sasuke's excitement. When Sasuke looked up and realized everyone had already started their free time, he felt a bit stunned. Had time really passed that quickly?

"Sasuke, you must have been sleeping in class again!"

Just as Sasuke was contemplating whether to let that special shadow clone stay behind to continue attending class while he went back to train, a somewhat smug voice reached him!

Hearing this voice, Sasuke turned his head in surprise. Sure enough, it was the fated rival of the original body, that idiot Uzumaki Naruto. But then again, Sasuke no longer considered Uzumaki Naruto his rival; after all, with the system, surpassing Uzumaki Naruto was simply too easy!

"It's different."

Looking at Uzumaki Naruto, who seemed smug as if he had found a weakness, Sasuke waved his hand dismissively. With the system, Sasuke really didn't want to have too much interaction with this master of Talk no Jutsu!

"Bastard... what's different!"

Faced with Sasuke's indifferent attitude, Naruto, feeling insulted, asked with a flushed face!

Uzumaki Naruto's tone drew the attention of the others, as everyone had witnessed Sasuke sleeping in class today!

Shikamaru looked at the furious Naruto and shook his head helplessly; the gap between them was already evident from this alone.

"I slept in class because I already know everything Iruka-sensei is teaching, while you sleep because you don't understand a word of it. That is where the difference lies!"

Seeing the crowd of onlookers growing, Sasuke looked coldly at Naruto, who had been struck by his words, and slowly walked out of the classroom!

"Baka!"

After Sasuke left, Naruto, recovering from his state of shame, looked at Sasuke, who had already disappeared at the end of the corridor, and flew into a rage!

"So cool!"

Ino and Sakura, recalling Sasuke's words just now and that disdainful tone, couldn't help but let their eyes shine!

"Naruto, don't be discouraged. Although that guy's words were a bit harsh, it's the truth!" Shikamaru, who had originally expected Sasuke to beat Naruto up like in the combat class, walked over to Naruto, patted his shoulder, and comforted him!

"Naruto-kun... do your best!" Hinata, who had witnessed everything from her seat, silently cheered for Naruto in her heart!

Sasuke, having left the classroom, wandered around the school. After realizing it was impossible to return to the Uchiha compound without being discovered, he curled his lip in frustration!

"Tomorrow, I'll let the shadow clone come to class instead!"

Muttering this to himself, Sasuke returned to the classroom.

As soon as Sasuke entered, he saw Naruto glaring at him. Sasuke didn't care in the slightest; of course, if Naruto were to rush over and start a fight, that would be even better, as he needed Naruto's cells—or more accurately, the Asura Chakra contained within Naruto's chakra!

Returning to his seat, Sasuke slumped over his desk and waited. After all, if nothing went wrong, the theory class would be followed by a practical class, which meant an outdoor lesson.

Outdoor lessons consisted of either kunai and shuriken training or combat training. Either way, these were things Sasuke quite enjoyed, as they could all increase his proficiency.

Generally, once a common skill reached its maximum value, it would no longer be displayed, such as his Shape Transformation and his Control Level over chakra.

Although he didn't know what the situation was with his Kunai Throwing, the fact that it hadn't disappeared meant there was still room for improvement!

"Next class, we will be practicing shuriken and kunai!"

Just as Sasuke was still pondering the status of his Kunai Throwing, Iruka walked in and announced to the class!

Hearing this, the whole class began to cheer; after all, compared to Iruka's long-winded lectures, everyone preferred the fresh air of the training ground.

"Don't get excited just yet. This time, I will be conducting a test!" Seeing the class in an uproar, Iruka took out a test sheet and waved it casually!

"Ah..."

Seeing the test sheet in Iruka's hand, most of the students lowered their heads, even Shikamaru, as he hated trouble the most!

Soon, under Iruka's guidance, the class arrived at the training ground.

Sasuke was no exception; after all, this was his chance to show off, so how could he not come!

"I will call names now, and you will come up to take the test!"

Seeing that everyone had arrived, Iruka picked up the roster and began calling names!

"Uzumaki Naruto!"

Just as everyone assumed the first one would be the top student, Sasuke, the very first name Iruka called out took everyone by surprise!

"Oh yeah!"

Discovering he was first, Naruto shouted happily. After all, in the past, Sasuke was always first! It seems Iruka-sensei thinks I have surpassed Sasuke!

Full of high spirits, Naruto quickly went to Iruka's side, took out ten kunai, aimed at the bullseye, and began throwing!

"Thwack, thwack, thwack..."

A series of sounds followed as the kunai Naruto threw accurately avoided the target entirely, all flying into a large tree behind the target!

"Uzumaki Naruto, 0 points!"

Watching Naruto, whose performance was fierce like a tiger but whose results were 0-5, Iruka drew a circle on Naruto's scorecard with a grim expression.

"Uchiha Sasuke!"

After recording Naruto's score, Iruka abandoned the idea of starting the test from the bottom-ranked student; he figured he would be angered to death if he did that!

Upon hearing Iruka's voice, Uchiha Sasuke slowly walked over to Iruka's side, nonchalantly took out ten kunai, and tossed them out casually.

After flying through the air for a moment, the kunai thrown by Uchiha Sasuke landed steadily right in the center of the bullseye!

"Uchiha Sasuke, 100 points!" Watching him hit the bullseye so effortlessly, Iruka shook his head helplessly; a genius was a genius, after all!

A dull and tedious class, a listless throwing exercise!
