Jiangli Dojo

After dinner, Luo Yu returned to bed early, took out his phone, and started playing with it.

In his previous life, he would never have dreamed of owning a phone worth over ten thousand. Now, one was easily within his reach.

Awesome!

Savoring the thought, Luo Yu opened some perfectly respectable anime on his phone and watched late into the night. Only after his sister urged him did he finally settle down to sleep.

The next day.

After breakfast, Luo Yu headed out early for the outskirts of the Dark Forest.

When he grew hungry at noon, he took out the lunch his sister had lovingly packed for him. He did not retrace his steps home until evening.

This time, however, never mind attribute points-Luo Yu had not even caught a glimpse of a rabbit.

He almost wondered whether he had overused his eyes and broken his Sharingan.

With a head full of questions, Luo Yu passed through the checkpoint again.

Spotting him, the officer stationed there greeted him warmly. "Comrade Luo Yu, how was your haul today?"

Luo Yu had spent the past few days outside the city, and through their repeated encounters, the two had become quite familiar.

Moreover, now that the officer knew Luo Yu had killed Wan Xiong and the other rogue ninja, he no longer doubted Luo Yu's strength as he once had.

"Ugh, don't even ask. I didn't see so much as a rabbit hair."

Helplessness was written all over Luo Yu's face.

The officer chuckled at that. "That's because you've been too ruthless these past two days."

"Weak exotic beasts like Stonefang Rabbits are sensitive by nature. They've probably gone deeper into the Dark Forest to hide for a few days."

"This sort of thing used to happen all the time."

After hearing the officer's explanation, Luo Yu understood. "Thanks. Once I get my apprentice certification, I'll go deeper into the forest and play with them."

Then Luo Yu waved goodbye.

On his way home, he kept thinking.

With Kamui's intangibility, his proficient Great Fireball, and Wood Release, passing the assessment should be a sure thing.

Taking first place, though, was still uncertain.

But without the Stonefang Rabbits' support, how could he improve his strength in the one day he had left?

After pondering for a moment, Luo Yu suddenly asked, "System, can I get attribute points by sparring with other people?"

The system promptly replied, "As long as you defeat your opponent, you have a chance to obtain attribute points."

Hearing that, Luo Yu immediately had an idea.

Sparring?

Wasn't that what ninja dojos were for?

Ninja dojos were facilities that provided places for ninja to fight one another.

In cities with thriving ninja communities, the Ninja Association even established official dojos.

Naturally, these official dojos attracted countless ninja who rented space to spar.

After all, practical combat experience was essential to becoming a ninja capable of holding their own.

As a result, ninja dojos always did brisk business.

Although Luo Yu had not yet passed the Trainee Exam, the Jiangli Dojo still offered services to ninja students.

"Looks like I'll have to head to the dojo tomorrow for some real-life PvP!"

On the morning of the final day, Luo Yu got up early as usual.

This time, he did not even have time for breakfast. He grabbed a steamed bun between his teeth and hurried out.

Watching him, Luo Qingyu frowned deeply. "That boy isn't even eating proper meals now. Why doesn't he know how to take care of himself?"

"When he gets back, I'm definitely having a good talk with him!"

Ever since he had gotten his phone, Luo Yu had been going to sleep later and later, and she had noticed it all.

If she, his older sister, did not worry about her little brother's health, who would?

Meanwhile.

Following his plan, Luo Yu entered the Ninja Association's official Jiangli Dojo.

The moment he walked through the door, he encountered a group of medical staff carrying a stretcher, taking a severely injured patient into the dojo's medical room.

Having read up on the dojo on his phone the night before, Luo Yu was not surprised by the scene.

Although sparring took place under the supervision of official dojo staff, greatly reducing the risk of either fighter getting hurt, that did not eliminate it.

Some injuries and deaths were still unavoidable.

Medical personnel therefore remained on standby to treat injuries sustained during sparring.

"Isn't that Wu Quan? He's been a Novice Rank Three for ages. Almost no one below Genin can beat him. Who hurt him so badly that he needs emergency treatment?"

"That was Chen Qi, the young master of the Chen Family. He did it during their match."

"Chen Qi? I remember him being a student at Tengyang No. 3 Middle School. His grades have always been mediocre. How could he beat Wu Quan that badly?"

"I heard he recently absorbed the legacy of Genma Shiranui, a powerful figure from another world. His strength shot straight up to Novice Rank Three."

"Combined with the abilities passed down through that legacy, he has no match at his own tier."

"Genma Shiranui is a gem among White Legacies. The Chen Family really splashed out!"

"If I had a Genma Shiranui legacy fragment, I'd be over the moon."

"The Chen Family has a powerful Chunin backing them. Of course they have access to more resources."

"The Chen Family must be aiming for the first-place reward in the Trainee Exam."

Listening to their discussion, Luo Yu's interest stirred.

Although the Association had only classified Genma Shiranui's legacy as white-grade, its advantage was that even an apprentice could unleash almost all its power.

As for the Flying Thunder God Formation, which could only be mastered after advancing to Jonin, it was more of a utility technique and did little to improve combat strength.

Thus, Genma Shiranui's legacy was hailed in the Shinobi World as the god of war for novice ninja.

Anyone who absorbed Genma Shiranui's legacy could dominate the apprentice ranks, and even the Genin and Chunin ranks.

That made Genma Shiranui's legacy one of the most expensive White Legacies, costing no less than some of the less useful Green Legacies.

Still, the Chen Family wielded considerable influence in Jiangli City. A Genma Shiranui legacy was nothing to them.

Sure enough, no matter the world, paying to win was always king.

In fact, it was not just the Chen Family. Every ninja clan in Jiangli City had invested considerable effort and resources into helping their own secure good rankings in the apprentice assessment.

Luo Yu was certain that these second-generation ninja with high-quality legacies would be his strongest rivals in the Trainee Exam.

At that thought, Luo Yu smiled faintly. "Perfect. I can test my opponent's strength before the big battle."

Then he took out his phone and opened the Jiangli Dojo's official app.

It displayed every combat arena in the Jiangli Dojo, along with the fighters using them.

The arenas were divided into Apprentice Level, Genin, Chunin, and Jonin levels.

The higher the level, the sturdier the arena-and the higher the cost.

As long as fighters paid, they could use arenas above their own level.

But they could not use arenas below their level. Otherwise, the repair bills alone would be enough to make them suffer.

Scanning the information on his phone, Luo Yu found Chen Qi's name in an Apprentice Level arena.

Chen Qi was currently defending the arena, and the app showed that he had already won five matches in a row.

Since it was an Apprentice Level arena, everyone who challenged Chen Qi was an apprentice.

That was why he had easily secured five consecutive victories.

Those five matches had also made it clear that Chen Qi was a formidable opponent, so no one else had stepped up to challenge him.

Arriving at arena seven, where Chen Qi was stationed, Luo Yu studied him as he stood in the center, waiting for a fight.

Suddenly, a data panel appeared before his eyes.

Name: Chen Qi

Attribute point drop rate: 50%
