"Teacher, it's time for my match against Great Strength King. My youth is burning, I can't wait!" Muscle Tyrant jumped up in excitement, as if every cell in his body were boiling.
He clenched his fists, a resolute light flickering in his eyes, as if he had already witnessed the moment he defeated Great Strength King.
Liuli watched from the side, unable to help but mutter to herself, This guy is truly a hot-blooded youth! It seems he has been looking forward to this duel for a long time.
"Right, Great Strength King?" Muscle Tyrant turned his head, looking at Great Strength King not far away with an excited expression.
His muscles seemed even more swollen than usual, as if they were ready to erupt with astonishing power at any moment.
"That's right, Li! Muscle! We are burning!" Great Strength King also nodded, his voice thunderous and soul-shaking, echoing throughout the entire training ground.
Every word he spoke, every movement he made, was filled with power and confidence, making it impossible to ignore his presence.
A hint of challenge flickered in his eyes, a craving and expectation born from the depths of his soul.
He wasn't provoking Muscle Tyrant, but rather telling his opponent in his own way that he wouldn't be so easy to deal with.
He craved a true contest, a battle that would allow him to give his all.
Rock Lee had also wandered over at some point, his hands clasped together, looking eager to jump into the fray.
A light shone in his eyes, as if he had already envisioned the scene of his intense duel with Great Strength King.
His voice echoed across the training ground, filled with fighting spirit and passion, as if he were about to set the entire field ablaze.
"Power! Muscle! Our youth is burning!" Rock Lee shouted, his voice brimming with enthusiasm and strength.
Every word of his was like a Coreflame, igniting the hearts of everyone present. They seemed to feel that burning power, that passion that made one's blood boil.
Liuli watched from the side, her own heart unable to resist being infected by this passion.
She knew this was the power of youth!
That fearless, indomitable spirit.
Liuli looked at the three guys before her, feeling somewhat speechless—three hot-blooded youths.
She knew they were all looking forward to this duel, but she also understood that a match was not child's play and required a serious attitude.
Thus, she stepped forward, patted Muscle Tyrant on the shoulder, and said in a calm yet firm tone, "Muscle Tyrant, I know you're excited, but you must stay calm during the match. Don't be impulsive."
Liuli's words carried both concern and trust. She believed Muscle Tyrant had the strength and wisdom to handle this challenge, but she also reminded him not to let his emotions cloud his judgment.
Hearing this, Muscle Tyrant nodded, a look of determination appearing on his face.
He took a deep breath, as if to suppress all his tension and excitement. He looked up at Liuli, his eyes flashing with a resolute light: "Don't worry, Teacher, I'll be careful. But my youth is meant to burn, meant to fight! This is what Emperor Guy taught us! I won't give up a single opportunity!"
Liuli was slightly shocked by Muscle Tyrant's words, as if she had heard something absurd.
Nani? Emperor Guy has two more subordinates? She muttered to herself, Emperor Guy, that hot-blooded teacher, truly has students everywhere!
Back in the day, Might Guy was quite the prominent figure on campus. That cool green bodysuit of his, paired with his signature silver-white short hair, was like a breath of fresh air in the school.
His teaching style was also unique, always filled with passion and hot-bloodedness.
Whether it was morning exercises at six or night runs at ten, he would always appear on the track on time, leading his disciples to sweat together.
As Emperor Guy's prized student, Rock Lee naturally received a lot of attention. His unique taijutsu and indomitable spirit made most people marvel.
However, now that she heard Emperor Guy had two more disciples, Liuli couldn't help but imagine what these two newcomers looked like.
Come to think of it, where did Emperor Guy find these two weirdos? Their names are already bizarre enough. Liuli muttered inwardly.
She imagined Emperor Guy in some remote corner, excitedly telling two confused-looking newcomers: "You are the talents I've been looking for! Learn taijutsu from me, and I guarantee you'll become the focus of the campus!"
Thinking of this, Liuli couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She imagined the two newcomers looking at Emperor Guy in a daze, then asking each other: "Who is this middle-aged man? How does he know our names?"
Such a scene was truly too funny.
But then again, Emperor Guy's eye for talent had always been unique. He could always discover the hidden potential in the crowd and then carefully carve and polish it.
Perhaps these two newcomers would be the next batch of disciples to amaze everyone.
Liuli shook her head, casting these wild thoughts to the back of her mind, and returned to the present.
She saw that Muscle Tyrant was ready; he was going to meet this challenge in his own way.
She nodded and said with a smile, "That's right, youth is meant to burn, meant to fight. But remember, the battle is not to defeat the opponent, but to surpass yourself."
Liuli's words were like a warm current, flowing slowly into Muscle Tyrant's heart.
He felt a power, a power originating from within, as if it could make him forge ahead, fearless.
Muscle Tyrant nodded thoughtfully at Liuli's words. He understood that she was reminding him not to take the match too seriously, but to treat it as an opportunity to train and improve himself.
He took a deep breath and then exhaled slowly, as if expelling all the distractions from his heart.
He felt the peace and firmness within him, as if he were ready to meet the challenge.
At this moment, Rock Lee and Great Strength King also walked over. Rock Lee patted Muscle Tyrant and Great Strength King on the shoulders, smiling as he said, "Muscle Tyrant, Great Strength King, don't be nervous, let's do our best together!"
His voice was full of enthusiasm and encouragement, making Muscle Tyrant feel a warm current surge in his heart.
Great Strength King also nodded; although he didn't speak much, his eyes revealed determination and confidence.
Liuli smiled helplessly, knowing that the personalities of these three little guys were just like that—hot-blooded and impulsive.
She could only hope that he would be able to display his true strength in the match while also remaining safe.
"Ninja battle! Begin!"
The match started. Muscle Tyrant and Great Strength King stood in opposing positions, both assuming combat stances.
A trace of disdain flickered in Great Strength King's eyes, as if he were saying, "Kid, your reach isn't enough to be worth looking at."
He stood there like a towering mountain, giving off an unshakable aura.
However, Muscle Tyrant was not overwhelmed by his presence. He took a deep breath, his eyes flashing with a determined light.
He lunged toward Great Strength King.
Seeing this, Great Strength King did not show weakness. He quickly adjusted his stance, preparing to meet Muscle Tyrant's attack.
Their figures intertwined in the air, fists colliding with a dull thud.
The match proceeded with extreme intensity; the two traded blows, neither willing to give an inch.
Although Muscle Tyrant possessed great strength, Great Strength King relied on his rich experience and excellent technique to neutralize his attacks time and again.
However, as time passed, Great Strength King began to feel out of his depth.
His stamina was gradually depleting, while Muscle Tyrant fought with increasing vigor. He constantly adjusted his tactics, utilizing his speed and agility to gradually gain the upper hand.
Finally, at a critical moment, Muscle Tyrant seized an opening in Great Strength King's defense and landed a heavy punch to his abdomen.
Great Strength King felt a wave of sharp pain strike him; he clutched his stomach and doubled over.
Seeing this, Muscle Tyrant immediately seized the opportunity and launched another heavy blow. This time, he successfully knocked Great Strength King down.
He stood on the arena floor, panting heavily, but a victorious smile appeared on his face.
"Why is it the abdomen again? What is it with you two and the abdomen? I'm honestly speechless." Liuli watched the two on the arena floor and couldn't help but shake her head helplessly.
She walked up quickly to check on the condition of Great Strength King and Muscle Tyrant with concern.
"Are you alright?" Liuli asked softly, her eyes filled with care for the two.
Great Strength King rubbed his abdomen, feeling a dull ache, but he endured it and put on an indifferent expression. He laughed and said, "Teacher, I'm fine, fully recovered!" After saying this, he deliberately puffed out his chest to show off his abs.
Seeing this, Liuli couldn't help but laugh.
She knew Great Strength King was just trying to amuse her, so she stopped worrying about his injuries.
She turned to look at Muscle Tyrant and, seeing that he was in good shape as well, nodded with relief.
"You look fine, I'm glad you're okay," Liuli said. "You two step down; it's time for the others to compete." She waved her hand, signaling for the two to leave the arena.
Great Strength King and Muscle Tyrant followed Liuli's instructions and left the arena together.
They knew that although this match was over, their path of training was still very long.
They needed to continue working hard and constantly improving their strength to achieve better results in future matches.
"The next group is..." Liuli stood in the center of the arena and clearly and forcefully read out the names of the next pair of contestants.
As her words fell, the two contestants walked to the center of the arena, their eyes filled with fighting spirit and anticipation.
After each student finished their training, Liuli's class finally came to an end.
She stood at the edge of the arena, looking at the students who were drenched in sweat and panting for breath.
From the initial self-introductions to the later sparring matches.
The bell rang, and Liuli announced, "Class dismissed. The next class is taught by Iruka."
The students stood up one after another to leave, but Sasuke remained seated, his face expressionless, as if waiting for his sister to arrive.
However, among these busy figures, Sasuke seemed particularly distinct.
He stood quietly in his original spot, his eyes revealing a hint of boredom and disdain.
He glanced at the group of departing students, a disdainful smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
Just a bunch of brats fighting, he thought. This kind of combat is far too boring for me.
Liuli noticed Sasuke's unusual behavior. She set down the list of names in her hand, walked over to his side, and asked softly, "Sasuke, what's wrong? Are you bored?"
Sasuke looked up, gave Liuli a faint glance, and said, "Yeah, bored to death. These lessons are too simple for me; there's no challenge."
Hearing this, Liuli couldn't help but laugh out loud.
She gently flicked Sasuke's head and said tenderly, "You little one, you really are a handful. But you're not wrong; with your talent and strength, these basic courses are indeed too simple for you."
A trace of pride flashed in Sasuke's eyes upon hearing Liuli's praise.
He lifted his chin slightly, like a proud little rooster, displaying his extraordinary nature.
But this expression only lingered on his face for a moment before he quickly masked it, returning to his cool demeanor.
He looked up, staring intently at Liuli, and asked, "Then, Sister, do you have any more advanced lessons you can teach me? I want to learn something truly useful, not these things that couldn't be more basic."
Seeing Sasuke's eager look, Liuli couldn't help but chuckle.
She reached out and gently flicked Sasuke's forehead, laughing, "You little one, you're really too impatient. But you're right; with your talent and strength, these basic courses are indeed too simple for you."
Sasuke didn't get angry after being flicked by Liuli; instead, he gave a cheeky grin and said, "Then how do you plan to teach me, Sister? I'm really looking forward to it!"
Liuli smiled and said, "Don't be in such a rush; haste makes waste. How about this: after school this afternoon, come home with me, and I will teach you the Chidori ninjutsu. This technique requires immense chakra control, so it should be quite a challenge for you."
Upon hearing that she would teach him Chidori, Sasuke's eyes immediately lit up with a brilliant shine. He asked excitedly, "Really? You'll teach me Chidori? That's a very high-level ninjutsu!"
Watching Sasuke's excited expression, Liuli felt a sense of deep gratification. She thought to herself, Although this little guy usually acts all cool, his inner thirst for power and his persistence in becoming stronger are truly remarkable. It seems he really cherishes every opportunity to grow stronger.
Liuli nodded with a smile and said to Sasuke, "Of course it's true. However, Sasuke, you must understand that learning Chidori is not that simple. This ninjutsu requires extremely high chakra control and refined technique. If you want to learn it, you will have to put in more effort and sweat than anyone else."
"But for now, go to class. I will come to pick you up after school, and then I will teach you some even more advanced ninjutsu," Liuli said softly to Sasuke, her voice filled with gentleness and encouragement.
As soon as Sasuke heard this, a determined light flashed in his eyes. He clenched his fists tightly, as if he could feel the power from the depths of his heart surging forth.
"Sister, I am not afraid of hardship, nor am I afraid of fatigue." Sasuke looked up, his gaze fixed firmly on Liuli. "As long as it allows me to become stronger, I am willing to do anything!"
Although his voice still held a hint of childishness, it revealed an unquestionable resolve.
Looking at Sasuke's determined eyes, Liuli felt even more certain of her decision.
She knew that Sasuke was a child with a strong will; he longed to become stronger and yearned to protect himself and those around him. This determination and courage made Liuli feel immensely gratified and proud.
"Sasuke, becoming stronger is not something that happens overnight; it requires a great deal of effort and sweat," Liuli said softly, her voice filled with care and expectation for him. "However, as long as you are willing to work hard and persist, you will certainly become the person you want to be."
Sasuke nodded and took a deep breath, as if he were inhaling Liuli's words into the very depths of his soul.
He knew that his sister's words were the driving force behind his progress and the conviction that fueled his growth.
"I will, Sister," Sasuke said softly, his voice filled with firmness and confidence. "I will study hard and train hard, so that I do not let myself down, nor will I let you down."
Liuli smiled and patted Sasuke on the shoulder, her eyes shimmering with a gratified light.
She knew that Sasuke was ready and that he had already taken the first step toward becoming stronger.
Sasuke nodded, his deep black eyes flashing with a resolute light. He knew he had to work hard to become stronger so that he could protect those around him and take revenge on that heinous villain.
