Uchiha Ying Yue closed his eyes, focused his mind, and silently chanted in his head: "Redeem Wood Release!"

The next moment, the system's voice rang out: "Redeem Wood Release, consumes 1000 Destiny Points."

Following this prompt, a powerful and unfamiliar force surged forth from within Ying Yue's body.

It was a surging, inexhaustible flow of chakra, pouring into his body as if from an endless spring.

Uchiha Ying Yue's entire body trembled slightly, and fine beads of sweat broke out on his forehead, but he gritted his teeth, struggling to endure the impact of this sudden surge of power.

Gradually, Ying Yue discovered that his perception of the surrounding environment had changed; he seemed capable of sensing every subtle breath and flow of energy in the natural world.

Just then, Ying Yue felt the ground beneath his feet begin to tremble slightly.

Looking down, he saw that tender green grass shoots had sprouted from the previously barren soil, and at the same time, he noticed that the surrounding trees had become exceptionally vibrant, their branches and leaves swaying as if cheering with joy.

Uchiha Ying Yue stood in the center of the training ground, feeling the constant surge of power within him.

Ying Yue realized that he had successfully mastered the legendary Wood Release ability.

Watching the vegetation grow on the ground according to his will, a surge of indescribable surprise and excitement welled up in Ying Yue's heart.

This feeling of being one with the natural world made him feel as if he had grasped the entire world.

Finally, I have mastered the bloodline limit of Senju Hashirama, the power of Wood Release. Ying Yue thought to himself, his eyes flashing with a determined light.

However, subsequent thoughts also flooded his mind.

The power of Wood Release was undeniably great, but its exposure could also invite unnecessary trouble.

As a descendant of the Uchiha Clan, mastering the unique ability of the Senju Clan was a major contradiction in itself, one that might attract the intense attention of Konoha Village's top brass or even draw the covetous eyes of those with ill intentions, especially Shimura Danzo of Root.

But Ying Yue soon let go of these concerns.

A power like Wood Release could not be hidden forever; rather than keeping it under wraps, it was better to display it openly and use this strength to secure more resources and support for himself.

Only by being truly valued by others would he gain better opportunities for growth and earn more Destiny Points.

Making a name for myself early, gaining more Destiny Points, and increasing my strength—that is the true path. Ying Yue made his decision.

Uchiha Ying Yue decided to publicly demonstrate his Wood Release ability at an appropriate time.

Doing so would not only shock all of Konoha but also rapidly boost his reputation and earn him more Destiny Points.

Ying Yue, possessing the Destiny System, knew well that fame was far from useless.

Uchiha Ying Yue understood that although exposing Wood Release might attract some malicious gazes, he was not afraid.

With the support of the Destiny System, his strength would continue to rise, and by then, anyone who attempted to harm him would pay the price.

"What is the point of having Wood Release if I don't use it? It would be like wearing fine clothes in the dark," Ying Yue smiled. "I will make the entire Konoha Village know of my existence, and know the name Uchiha Ying Yue."

Uchiha Ying Yue decided to choose a suitable occasion for the first display of his Wood Release ability. By showcasing the power of Wood Release, Ying Yue planned to attract the attention of the village's top brass and the clans, striving for more resources and support.

At the same time, this was a rare opportunity to rapidly accumulate Destiny Points through the Destiny System and further enhance his strength.

Only a genius who is valued can achieve true growth, Ying Yue pondered inwardly. I will use this power to win more Destiny Points for myself and become a top-tier powerhouse in this world.

Uchiha Ying Yue stood on the Ninja Academy training ground, his eyes flashing with a firm light.

Ying Yue had already made his decision: he would take this opportunity to use the Ninja Academy's sparring session to showcase his newly awakened Wood Release ability.

After careful consideration, Ying Yue decided to challenge two geniuses from the upper grades—the brothers Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi.

The Hyuga Clan was famous for their unique Gentle Fist and Byakugan, and these two brothers were recognized geniuses in the Ninja Academy, possessing rich combat experience and extraordinary strength.

If Ying Yue could defeat both of them at once, he would undoubtedly become the strongest in the Ninja Academy.

Ying Yue took a deep breath and walked toward the teacher, Sarutobi Yusuke. His eyes revealed a firm determination.

"Teacher Sarutobi Yusuke, I wish to challenge seniors Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi." Ying Yue's tone was calm but full of confidence.

Upon hearing this, Sarutobi Yusuke frowned slightly. He had long noticed Ying Yue's performance over this period, but this challenge clearly surprised him.

Hiashi and Hizashi were geniuses of the upper grades, and their combined strength was extremely formidable.

"Are you sure? Ying Yue, Hiashi and Hizashi are geniuses of the upper grades; their combined strength is not to be underestimated," Teacher Sarutobi Yusuke asked, a hint of doubt in his eyes.

Ying Yue nodded without hesitation, his gaze firm: "I am sure, and I want to challenge them both at the same time. Ordinary opponents are no longer enough to demonstrate my capacity."

Hearing Ying Yue's words, Sarutobi Yusuke raised an eyebrow, his expression becoming somewhat intrigued.

While he acknowledged Ying Yue's talent, he also felt that Ying Yue was being somewhat arrogant.

It was good for a young person to have confidence, but one also needed to know moderation; excessive confidence often led to setbacks.

However, Sarutobi Yusuke did not object. He believed that geniuses indeed needed to experience some setbacks during their growth to better temper their character.

Since it was just a spar and Ying Yue had taken the initiative to challenge them, he would let him try.

"Ying Yue, I approve of your challenge." Sarutobi Yusuke nodded, then turned to arrange for the Hyuga brothers to arrive.

The combination of Hiashi and Hizashi was incredibly tacit, and the two launched an offensive against Ying Yue simultaneously.

Soon, the news spread throughout the entire Ninja Academy, and everyone heard that Ying Yue was going to challenge the brothers Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi.

This challenge match caused quite a stir in the Ninja Academy; almost all the students rushed over to watch, and the teachers were attracted as well.

Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi stood at the other end of the training ground. Their gazes were calm, and although they were surprised by Ying Yue's challenge, there was no sign of contempt in their expressions.

"Ying Yue, are you truly going to challenge both of us brothers at once?" Hyuga Hiashi asked calmly, his tone laced with a hint of caution.

Ying Yue smiled indifferently and nodded, saying, "Yes, only in this way can I truly test my strength."

A flash of admiration crossed Hyuga Hizashi's eyes, though it was tinged with disdain: "You have courage, but do not underestimate us."

At Sarutobi Yusuke's command, the battle erupted instantly. Without a moment's hesitation, the Hyuga brothers activated their Byakugan, locking Ying Yue within their omnidirectional field of perception.

The two launched a Gentle Fist assault with blinding speed, leaving Ying Yue to face two overwhelming waves of pressure.

Ying Yue swiftly entered a combat state. Relying on the ability of [Ninja World Dance King], his dynamic vision and reaction speed reached their peak, allowing him to dodge the joint offensive of Hiashi and Hizashi in an instant.

Though the two were powerful, Ying Yue's combat
