Refusing to Join the Anbu is Unforgivable!

"At such a young age, he's invented a logically rigorous code that can be transmitted using only sound, without even needing chakra?"

"What a talent! This is a true talent! If this kid doesn't join the Anbu, it would be a crime against heaven!"

Ibiki made up his mind; once the exam was over, he would personally recruit Uchiha Sora!

He had to get him to work for the Anbu, no matter what!

Meanwhile, Uchiha Sora completely ignored the proctor.

After all, he wasn't "cheating."

At that moment, his fingers were tapping away energetically.

"Question 30, the answer should be A!"

Uchiha Sora tapped his fingers, transmitting the code out.

Hinata and Rock Lee hurriedly copied it down.

As expected of Uchiha Sora, to think he'd have such a method; he's just too much of a genius! Who said our Uchiha Sora was a loser!

Hinata's face flushed slightly, and she couldn't help but admire him even more.

At the same time, she unconsciously referred to him as "our" Uchiha Sora.

As for Rock Lee, his eyes darted around in excitement.

As expected of a fellow Konoha Beast burning with youth, his brain is truly one of a kind!

In an instant, without Uchiha Sora even knowing it, he had already shocked a small group of people!

As time passed, the written portion of the Chunin Exams drew to a close.

Ibiki tapped on the blackboard.

"The exam is over! All examinees, take your hands off your desks and stop answering!"

Soon, everyone froze, their expressions ranging from grim to joyful.

Clearly, the results of the exam varied greatly.

A large portion of the examinees hadn't been able to solve the problems.

They looked miserable and at a loss for what to do.

Beside them, Uchiha Sora was bored out of his mind.

He knew that, according to the plot, Ibiki would present them with a choice.

To put it bluntly, it was just a psychological test.

Sure enough, Ibiki glanced at those who hadn't passed, including Naruto.

"Now, you have two choices. Either give up on this exam and wait until next year to participate in the second round!"

"Or choose to continue and answer one final question. If you answer correctly, you pass immediately!"

"If you answer incorrectly, you will never be allowed to take the exam again, and you will be banned from ever becoming a Chunin for life!"

As soon as these words were spoken, an uproar erupted below.

"Damn, you've got to be kidding me, is it really that rigged?"

"A lifetime ban? There must be some dark conspiracy in Konoha Village! I protest!"

"What should I choose... maybe I should play it safe and come back next year?"

The crowd buzzed with discussion.

At this moment, Naruto and the others, just like in the original story, chose to answer the question.

The entire process went smoothly; Ibiki asked them for their reasons for becoming ninjas.

Everyone's answers were different, but the general sentiment was the same. In short, as long as they chose to answer, they passed the test.

Seeing that the assessment was over, Uchiha Sora was about to leave when, suddenly, Ibiki approached him.

In front of everyone, he said with admiration, "You're from the Uchiha clan, right? I've heard rumors that you're a loser, but in my eyes, it's quite the opposite—you're a genius!"

"Once this exam is over, how about joining our Anbu?"

Uchiha Sora was stunned.

Everyone present was stunned.

Among them, Naruto's eyes went wide.

As expected, the Uchiha are extraordinary! This is probably the first time in history that Sasuke's older brother has been praised by an instructor!

Beside him, Sakura Haruno blinked.

I feel like Uchiha Sora is so handsome, and he seems more mature than Sasuke!

In the distance, the Ino-Shika-Cho trio's expressions shifted.

Choji's eyes widened.

"Holy crap! This instructor is the legendary one-eyed Ibiki! He actually praises people? What kind of background does this kid have?"

It wasn't just him; Ino was also shocked.

"A genius? Could it be that Uchiha Sora displayed some incredible strength during the exam just now?"

Even Orochimaru took a few extra looks at Uchiha Sora.

"It's truly a difficult choice. Both brothers are very strong. This Uchiha Sora seems to be an intellectual type; possessing this person might not be a bad idea!"

Orochimaru chuckled.

On the other hand, Uchiha Sora was the most bewildered of all.

What was going on?

How did he suddenly get praised?

Could it be that he was just too handsome, radiating an aura of genius from his very bones?

However, Uchiha Sora maintained an innocent expression on the surface.

"You flatter me, Instructor. I'm just an ordinary ninja; joining the Anbu or anything like that is a matter for the future!"

Ibiki didn't get angry; instead, he seemed even more impressed.

"Very good! Talented yet humble. Someone like you is bound to have a limitless future!"

"The Chunin Exams should be nothing more than a formality for you! I hope that even after you pass, you will maintain this original intention!"

Afterward, Ibiki swept his gaze over everyone present.

"Alright! The first exam is over. You may rest for a day. Tomorrow morning, head to the assembly point to participate in the second exam!"

Having said that, the man turned and walked away with a flourish.

The eyes of the many ninjas present were all fixed on Uchiha Sora.

Without a doubt, Uchiha Sora had made a name for himself in this exam.

"Let's go! Let's head back and rest; tomorrow will be a tough battle!"

Uchiha Sora shook his head and led the others out of the classroom.

They first dropped Rock Lee off at his home.

Afterward, Uchiha Sora and Hinata strolled along the road toward the Hyuga compound.

"Uchiha Sora! You're so amazing to have received praise from Ibiki. It's said that he rarely ever compliments anyone!"

Hinata's face flushed, looking exceptionally moving under the glow of the setting sun.

"Is that so? Perhaps my genius side is finally being accepted by the world!"

Uchiha Sora smiled.

He thought that Hinata was truly worthy of being one of the top three beauties in the Naruto world.

With that face and that figure, she was simply perfect.

However, considering the situation where overpowered characters would be everywhere later on, Hinata would soon find herself struggling to keep up.

Therefore, he had to become strong quickly so he could protect her!

"By the way, regarding tomorrow, remember not to train tonight when you get back. You need to conserve your energy!"

Hinata was taken aback, but seeing Uchiha Sora's serious expression, she knew that tomorrow's battle would surely be difficult.

"Mm! I understand!"

Hinata nodded obediently.

By this time, Uchiha Sora had already arrived at the gate of the Hyuga compound.

Just as he was about to say something, the head of the Hyuga family walked out—it was the clan leader, Hiashi.

"So it's the Uchiha boy. It's late, you should head back. Thank you for bringing my daughter home."

It was clear that Hiashi's attitude toward Uchiha Sora was not very warm.

It might also be because Uchiha Sora didn't have the best reputation.

After all, he was young and had already opened an Electromagnetic Therapy massage parlor that only served women.

It was only natural that he would be looked down upon.

Uchiha Sora didn't mind, though; after all, this might be his future father-in-law.
