"Beep... Achievement unlocked: Become a student at the Ninja Academy! Reward: Basic Three Body Technique--Transformation Technique, Substitution Technique, Clone Technique."

After Liuxia chose to claim the reward, a mysterious power suddenly surged into his mind.

The hand seals and techniques for the Three Body Technique flooded his consciousness like a tide, merging seamlessly with his thoughts. This knowledge became so familiar that it felt as if he had mastered it long ago and was merely reawakening a dormant memory.

If it weren't for the fact that he was currently in class, Liuxia would have been itching to test out these magical skills immediately.

He could feel an endless potential contained within his body, just waiting to be unleashed. However, his reason told him to be patient; he could not simply start practicing in the middle of a lesson.

Just then, after the self-introduction session concluded, Sato Ichiro stepped onto the podium and began to explain the first lesson of the day: Chakra extraction.

For a ninja, chakra is undoubtedly the most critical source of energy. It is not only the foundation for performing various ninjutsu, taijutsu, and genjutsu, but also an important indicator of a ninja's strength.

After all, the very purpose of the Ninja Academy is to cultivate excellent ninjas for the village.

Whether it is flashy ninjutsu, powerful taijutsu, or even mysterious genjutsu, everything ultimately relies on a strong supply of chakra for support. Only by possessing a sufficient amount of chakra that one can freely control can one truly become an outstanding ninja.

Therefore, learning how to efficiently extract and utilize chakra has become a mandatory course for every ninja student.

After listening intently for a while, Liuxia realized that compared to the knowledge Tsunade had taught him, the content taught here appeared much simpler and more fundamental.

Perhaps this was an adjustment made out of consideration for students from ordinary families.

After all, children from prestigious clans often have their own family ninjas responsible for guiding them in advance to sense and utilize chakra, ensuring that these children do not fall behind other clan members after entering the academy.

As the end-of-class bell rang abruptly, Sato Ichiro, startled like a bird, packed up the items on his desk with lightning speed and bolted out of the classroom like a gust of wind.

The previously quiet classroom instantly became noisy, but the girls in the room seemed unaffected; their gazes converged simultaneously on Liuxia, who was sitting in the corner.

Outside the window, the sun was bright, casting dappled light and shadows onto the windowsill through the gaps in the leaves.

A gentle breeze blew, bringing with it the scent of flowers, making one feel refreshed and relaxed. Liuxia had sharp brows and bright eyes, a face as handsome as jade, and a faint, elusive smile always played on his lips. As the sunlight spilled over him through the window, it seemed to drape his entire person in a layer of golden radiance.

Such a scene made the girls' hearts flutter, their eyes revealing an irrepressible sense of anticipation and curiosity.

However, at that moment, a figure appeared beside Nawaki and Liuxia like a ghost.

The newcomer was none other than Uchiha Yan. He looked at the two in front of him with an arrogant expression and said, "You must be the ones from the Senju clan! Today, I am challenging you to let you know that our Uchiha clan is the strongest ninja clan in Konoha!"

Uchiha Yan's challenge shattered the classroom's clamor. His voice echoed through the room, causing everyone to stop what they were doing and turn their attention to the confrontation about to unfold.

The air in the classroom seemed to freeze, leaving only the tense atmosphere between Uchiha Yan and the two boys from the Senju clan.

Sunlight shone through the window onto Uchiha Yan, stretching his shadow long across the classroom floor.

Liuxia sat by the window, the sun casting a glow on his handsome face, adding a touch of mysterious charm. His gaze was firm, and the corners of his mouth were slightly upturned, as if he were full of confidence for the coming challenge.

Nawaki stood to the side, his brows furrowed, his eyes flashing with an unyielding light.

This challenge was not just a personal contest, but a battle for the honor of their two clans.

Uchiha Yan stood in the center of the classroom, his figure appearing exceptionally tall under the sunlight.

His eyes revealed intense confidence and determination, as if he had already seen the dawn of victory.

Nawaki and Liuxia exchanged a glance, both seeing a hint of helplessness in the other's eyes.

"Uchiha Yan, don't go too far," Nawaki said, his face darkening. "This is a classroom, not a place for you to cause trouble."

"Hmph, are you afraid?" Uchiha Yan said dismissively. "If you don't dare to accept the challenge, then admit that your Senju clan is inferior to our Uchiha clan."

"Fine, we accept your challenge," Liuxia said calmly. "However, since it's a challenge, there must be a wager."

"If you lose, you will apologize to me in front of everyone and admit that our Uchiha clan is the strongest," Uchiha Yan said triumphantly.

"And what if you lose?" Nawaki asked.

"I won't lose," Uchiha Yan said confidently.

"Arrogant," Nawaki sneered. "If you lose, you have to bark like a dog three times."

"Fine, it's a deal," Uchiha Yan said through gritted teeth, convinced he could not possibly lose.

"Let's go, we'll head to the training ground. Let me properly experience the power of you Uchihas!"

The surrounding students began to whisper, some excited, some worried, and some curious.

They knew that this duel would become a major topic at the Ninja Academy and might even affect the relationship between the two clans.

In the tense atmosphere, Liuxia and Nawaki slowly stood up and walked out of the classroom with Uchiha Yan, heading toward the training ground.

Under the sun, the three boys walked side by side, as if signaling that a fierce contest was about to begin.

On the training ground, the sun was bright and a gentle breeze blew. The trees were lush, and the grass was dotted with colorful flowers. Yet, in this beautiful setting, a contest concerning honor and strength was about to unfold.

The three boys stood in the center of the training ground, preparing to start their duel.

The surrounding students gathered around, some watching from a distance, others leaning in closer, wanting to get a good look.

They knew this duel would be spectacular and might even become an unforgettable scene in their ninja careers.

Under the sunlight, the shadows of the three boys stretched long across the grass.

They prepared to meet the coming challenge. The surrounding students held their breath, waiting for the duel to begin.
