A Three-Way Choice at the Start in Konoha

Of fire, lightning, and earth, two choices had brought lightning and earth to Intermediate. Now Liuyun only needed to train fire to Intermediate as well.

Time flowed like water. Three years passed in the blink of an eye, and Konoha reached its fifty-first year.

On the Wooden Platform in Shikkotsu Forest, Liuyun sat cross-legged with his eyes closed, floating in midair.

The faint aura radiating from him was like a vast ocean swell, surging with power yet unfathomably deep.

No Katsuyu within a thousand meters could withstand it. The area had become a forbidden zone for life.

In the distance, Mikoto watched with worry written all over her face.

Beside her stood a huge Katsuyu, whose sweet voice held a note of reassurance.

"You don't need to worry. You know how strong Lord Liuyun is. He's only trying to break through his limits!"

"I know. I just can't help worrying!" Mikoto clasped her hands and prayed silently.

Katsuyu said nothing. Over the years Mikoto had trained here, she had often heard her talk about Liuyun in their spare time.

Katsuyu knew how close the two of them were.

To put it bluntly, if anything happened to Liuyun, the foolish girl before her would not go on living alone.

Just then, the mountainlike pressure receded like the tide.

On the distant Wooden Platform, Liuyun slowly opened his eyes.

Mikoto saw it and appeared before him in a flash.

"Are you all right?" she asked, her lovely face tense.

Liuyun smiled gently. "I'm fine! This was only a trial run. I'll definitely succeed next time!"

(Banned... I'm still not careful enough. Got caught again... Sigh! Life! EMMMMMM, it's so hard! It's already been deleted, and I still need to meet the word count... Today has been miserable... I'll probably have to revise
