"Ooooh!!"
This Exhibition Match had certainly gotten the spectators' blood pumping.
Some had expected nothing at all, assuming these students had only been thrown in by Konoha's higher-ups to fill out the roster and show their faces. They had never imagined such an intense fight.
The nobles around the Daimyo followed his lead, applauding and cheering.
Neji Hyuga and Choji Akimichi had delivered one reversal after another.
Even at critical moments, they had seized chances to dodge.
Whether it was the finesse of Neji Hyuga, who wielded the Byakugan, or Choji Akimichi's brute force after taking special Soldier Pills, both had thrilled the audience.
The final outcome was no surprise: Neji Hyuga won. After unleashing several powerful moves, Choji Akimichi could no longer suppress the backlash and slowed down, allowing Neji to seize the opening and turn the tables.
Watching the fight, the Daimyo's hands practically itched to join in himself.
Moreover, Choji Akimichi had actually slimmed down after taking the Soldier Pills, leaving quite a few girls from other villages swooning.
Voices rose from every direction, and the arena instantly erupted!
Now that the official matches were beginning, they looked forward to more surprises.
In the spectator stands.
Choza Akimichi only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing that his son had suffered no serious injuries.
"I never imagined he would take the Red Pill."
It had only been a sparring match. He had thought Choji would take the first two pills and put on a simple demonstration. Who could have imagined he would take the Red Pill and transform?
The toll was enormous. It was only an Exhibition Match, so no one had expected the fight to reach that point. It had certainly exceeded expectations, but it had also fired up the entire arena.
