The entire class fell completely silent in an instant. Not a sound could be heard-even everyone's heartbeats were audible.
How could they not fall silent?
Even Wang Qiang, the top student in the class, had only mastered one D-rank ninjutsu, yet Ning Feng had mastered an A-rank ninjutsu?
H-how was that possible!? Not to mention, Ning Feng had actually reached level 16, a full three levels above Wang Qiang!
Wang Qiang had participated in the closed beta and started at level 10. Even so, he had only gained three levels.
Liu Yue, who was holding Ning Feng's hand, now looked at him very differently too, a trace of admiration and respect flickering in her eyes.
"Oh, Ning Feng. Even if you came dead last again this time, there's no need to lie, is there?"
Wang Qiang chuckled. He did not believe a word Ning Feng said.
As far as he was concerned, Ning Feng was merely boasting.
"Exactly, Ning Feng. Even if you really are the worst in the class, we won't laugh at you."
"Ning Feng, it's wrong of you to brag!"
Quite a few of Wang Qiang's lackeys hurried to chime in.
Although Ning Feng's words had indeed been rather alarming, on second thought, how could an A-rank ninjutsu be so easy to obtain!?
As these students spoke up, the other students, who had initially been rather shocked, began looking at Ning Feng a little differently too. They all thought he was bragging...
Even Teacher Wang thought so. She hurriedly rebuked Wang Qiang, "Wang Qiang, that's enough! Ning Feng may have a few minor faults, but they're harmless..."
Seeing everyone doubt Ning Feng, Liu Yue, the only one who still believed him, immediately said, "Ning Feng must be telling the truth. He's never bragged before, and there's no need for him to brag about this!"
Faced with everyone's remarks, Ning Feng shrugged, not bothering to explain further.
After all, arguing with these children was simply a waste of time.
Just as Ning Feng was about to leave the classroom, Wang Qiang sneered and flicked his hand, sending a kunai flying at him in an instant at tremendous speed.
Wang Qiang struck so quickly that almost no one could react. Even if Teacher Wang wanted to intervene, she could hardly react in time.
Seeing the kunai about to hit Ning Feng, Liu Yue was just about to block it when Ning Feng lightly extended two fingers and effortlessly caught it between them.
At the same time, in the slightly dim classroom, Ning Feng's scarlet Sharingan shone especially brightly, inspiring a lingering sense of dread.
"Ah, the Sharingan!? I've seen those eyes at the Valley of the End! In Kirigakure, lots of ninja told me that if I ever encountered those eyes, I had to run away immediately..."
"No, that's not just the Sharingan. To be precise, it's the Two-Tomoe Sharingan! They say only geniuses of the Uchiha Clan can awaken it!"
"Huh? Didn't you say the Uchiha Clan was the most worthless clan? The Sharingan they awaken... shouldn't be powerful!"
"No, no, no. There's another claim going around: although the Uchiha Clan is the most worthless clan, those who activate their Sharingan are extremely powerful! Many hidden villages have found records of battles against Uchiha Clan members with the Sharingan! Their win rates were very low..."
Quite a few students could not help crying out in surprise. This was their first time seeing such eerie eyes.
"Hmph, so what if you have the Sharingan!?"
Wang Qiang snorted and lunged at Ning Feng. Although those Sharingan made his heart tremble a little, he did not think they were particularly powerful.
However, the moment Wang Qiang reached Ning Feng, Ning Feng delivered a vicious kick, sending him flying.
Wang Qiang struggled to his feet and was about to say something when a shrill alarm rang out from beyond Qinglong High School's sports field.
At the sound of the alarm, Teacher Wang's expression changed dramatically. She hurriedly said, "Close the windows immediately to keep the Demonic Beasts from getting in! If they get inside, we're finished!"
The moment she finished speaking, the students rushed to close the school windows as though the mere mention of demon beasts terrified them. Even the teachers in the other classes moved swiftly, ordering their students to shut the windows.
In moments, the entire high school sports field was deserted. All that remained were students trembling behind the windows.
"Have the Demonic Beasts come this quickly!?"
Ning Feng's eyes flickered.
When he transmigrated, he had learned that this was a world where people logged into the "Hokage World" to practice ninjutsu and fight the invading demons.
He simply had not expected the demons to arrive so quickly. Judging by the students' practiced movements, Demonic Beasts had clearly come more than once.
While Ning Feng was thinking, a series of loud clangs rang out. Several extremely fast Demonic Beasts resembling giant mountain cats were using their sharp claws to damage the glass windows in front of them.
Under the repeated jabs, the glass windows were clearly showing signs of breaking.
Ning Feng took a closer look. These mountain cats were actually as large as people, and their eyes were blood-red and bloodthirsty. Clearly, the moment the students went outside, these cats would tear them into strips of flesh.
"They're actually Primordial Mountain Cats, Class C Demonic Beasts..."
"They say only high-tier Genin Ninja can take on mountain cats like these. We're in trouble!"
The classroom was so quiet that every student's breathing could be heard.
One of the more knowledgeable students spoke in some fear.
"Class C Demonic Beasts!? Are the Demonic Beasts moving this quickly!? Just a few days ago, they were only Class D Demonic Beasts..."
"These Demonic Beasts really do evolve quickly. So quickly it's hard to imagine..."
Countless students felt their scalps prickle, utterly terrified.
Just moments ago, they had been quibbling over players' levels. Now, they suddenly felt as though all their efforts were in vain.
Even Teacher Wang did not know what to say at this moment.
Amid this sudden turn of events, Wang Qiang looked terrified of dying. Suddenly, as though something had occurred to him, he said, "Judging by the number of mountain cats outside, we should be able to get rid of them with a diversion."
"We could also take the opportunity to run back to our city's shelter. After all, that's where the most elite ninja are."
"And the weakest student in our class has the lowest chance of surviving, so I think we should all state our results. Whoever ranks last goes out to draw these Demonic Beasts away..."
As soon as he finished, countless students shot Wang Qiang vicious looks, but they soon felt that this was the wisest choice available.
Even if the method was a little shameless!
While countless students entertained their own thoughts, Teacher Wang looked at the students before her and was about to volunteer to lure the Demonic Beasts away...
"Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique!"
Unexpectedly, a powerful voice rang out, followed by a series of bangs. Several charred corpses of giant mountain cats smashed through the glass, appearing before everyone without warning.
The one who had acted was Ning Feng!
