This is Absolutely the Most Awesome Class I've Ever Taught!

"The Uchiha really is a clan that produces geniuses."

"There was Itachi before, and now this kid has suddenly emerged. It's just a pity..."

Iruka leaned one hand against the doorframe, staring at Sasuke in the distance, lost in a daze.

Just then, a student in the classroom finally noticed him at the door and, as if reporting news, exclaimed:

"Iruka-sensei is here!~..."

As soon as that shout rang out, the classroom instantly scattered like birds and beasts. In the blink of an eye, the entire room returned to its original, orderly state.

Seeing this, Iruka couldn't help but smile. Coming back to his senses, he strolled slowly to the center of the podium, cleared his throat, and said:

"I presume everyone knows what day it is today."

"Years of companionship must eventually come to an end, so I won't say much more here."

"I simply wish for everyone in this classroom to graduate smoothly and achieve results you are satisfied with."

"Alright, the graduation exam begins now!..."

"The subject for this graduation exam is the Clone Technique. When I call your name, please come up to the podium one by one to perform it."

"As for the final results, in three days, we will send them to the temporary dormitories assigned to each of you."

"Don't be nervous, just perform your best. If it doesn't work out, you can always try again next year..."

Iruka said a lot to the bewildered students below.

It was fine at first, but by the end, the expressions of more than half the people in the classroom were not looking very good.

Before the exam had even started, he was already talking about considering trying again next year.

It was clear that the graduation exam was not simple.

"Sanchuan Zhihe..."

"Here..."

"Aburame Shogen..."

"Here..."

"Inuzuka Goga..."

"Here..."

One after another, minor characters Sasuke hadn't even heard of went up to the stage.

But the results were very realistic.

Following a series of poof sounds, one misshapen Shadow Clone after another would dissipate into white smoke and vanish into thin air before they could even fully form.

Immediately after, one dejected face after another would walk back to their seats, looking as if life had lost all meaning, though there was no telling what they were thinking.

Sasuke had already quietly returned to his seat in the back row.

At this moment, Naruto was sitting right next to him, head bowed and silent, lost in his own thoughts.

Sakura was sitting behind Naruto, her cheeks slightly flushed. From time to time, she would sneak a glance at Sasuke, who sat with his eyes closed in quiet contemplation, her eyes filled with affection.

Ino had somehow circled around to directly behind Sasuke, her pink lips pursed and her throat bobbing. She would occasionally let out a mischievous smirk, though there was no telling what lewd thoughts were running through her mind...

Sasuke was well aware of all this, but he didn't care in the slightest.

With no woman in his heart, his sword-drawing would naturally be divine.

He focused his mind, summoning his system panel to contemplate the Dance of the Crescent Moon while keeping a sliver of his attention on waiting for Iruka to call his name.

"Haruno Sakura, one clone."

"Ino, one clone."

"Nara Shikamaru, one clone."

"Naruto, I asked you to perform the Clone Technique, not the Transformation Technique!"

"Besides, what kind of monstrosity have you transformed into?..."

As Sakura, Ino, and Shikamaru successfully performed a Shadow Clone one after another, Iruka expressed his satisfaction.

Even the brow he had been furrowing tightly began to relax.

But the moment it reached Naruto, the tone of the situation shifted abruptly, leaving Iruka dumbfounded.

If you were to say he didn't have enough chakra to perform the Clone Technique?

He actually had enough chakra to perform the Transformation Technique!

If you were to say he hadn't been listening in class and had confused the Clone Technique with the Transformation Technique?

But the Clone Technique was supposed to be even more fundamental than the Transformation Technique!

There was no reason he could perform the Transformation Technique but not the Clone Technique...

"Naruto, are you..."

Seeing Naruto standing there, dazed and lost in thought, Iruka asked with some concern.

Hearing this, Naruto snapped back to reality. Like a walking corpse, he gave a perfunctory reply before silently returning to his seat.

This kid Naruto... could there be something wrong with his mental state?

It seems I need to report this to the Third Hokage. If that doesn't work, I'll find that guy Ibiki; perhaps some psychological counseling might help Naruto improve...

Although he didn't say it aloud, Iruka pondered in his heart, having already mapped out a plan.

Just like that, after who knows how much more time had passed, Iruka's voice finally echoed slowly through the classroom:

"Uchiha Sasuke?"

"Here..."

Though his voice was incredibly calm, the look of excitement on his face betrayed the turbulence in his heart.

Sasuke, this rising star!

He was the first genius he had personally taught.

He wanted nothing more than to witness the limits of this prodigy!

Sasuke responded, and without delay, he strolled slowly toward the podium.

Before Iruka could say a word, he began weaving hand seals, his fingers moving so fast they left trails of afterimages!

Then, his eyes sharpened, and he shouted:

"Done!..."

The echo of his voice still lingered in the air.

Suddenly, a series of loud bangs erupted on the podium!

White smoke billowed out like mushroom clouds, settling in rows.

Seeing this, the crowd of onlookers in the classroom were so shocked their jaws nearly hit the floor.

But before they could even cry out in surprise, dozens of incredibly solid Shadow Clones appeared out of thin air, crowding the entire podium.

Two of the Shadow Clones, having no room left, even comically piled on top of each other, sitting on the shoulders of Sasuke and Iruka respectively with cheeky grins...

"Ah, this!..."

Seeing this, Iruka was stunned into speechlessness!

At this moment, even as a Chunin, he was just as shocked as the students below, unable to utter a single word, his face frozen in horror!

What kind of cultivation level was this!

Could it be that Sasuke had secretly advanced to the rank of Chunin?

But that shouldn't be possible, right?

I remember that the greatest genius of my generation, Kakashi, was only barely considered a Genin at this age.

But this Sasuke before me...

Iruka's expression stiffened, his thoughts swirling in a chaotic dance.

After a long while, he finally regained his composure, ultimately arriving at a very simple and unadorned conclusion in his mind:

"This is definitely the most incredible class I have ever taught; there has never been one like it before, and there will never be one like it again..."

Seeing everyone's expressions, Su Jian said nothing.

Instead, he secretly curled his lips into a cunning smile.

At the same time, the system's notification sounds began to chime frantically in his mind:

[Ding! Congratulations to the host, Charm +2, now increased to: 39...]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host, Charm +5, now increased to: 44...]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host, you have leveled up!~ Current level: 6.]
[Please check the system panel and address any gaps in a timely manner...]
