They entered the exam venue. The first round was still a written test.
Kakashi entered the classroom first, found a secluded corner, and huddled up without a word, like a frightened rabbit.
Then Bieshu Feifan and Might Duy walked into the classroom.
The big one wore green, the little one yellow, completely out of place among everyone else.
"Boo-hoo! I've finally stepped into a Chunin Ninja Exams classroom again! Boo-hoo! My youth has returned!"
Might Duy's cry instantly drew the gaze of everyone in the classroom.
Wearing a yellow tracksuit just like Bruce Lee's, Bieshu Feifan patted Might Duy on the shoulder.
"Brother Duy, don't worry. The Hokage is my brother."
Whispers immediately spread through the classroom.
"Aren't those two embarrassed? Especially the adult."
"Keep your voice down. Didn't you hear they're relatives of Lord Hokage?"
"Lord Hokage has it rough too, huh?"
Ignoring the cannon fodder's chatter, Bieshu Feifan and Might Duy walked straight toward the hiding Kakashi.
"Yo, Kakashi, you sure walked fast. Such youth!"
Might Duy gave him a thumbs-up.
Bieshu Feifan reached out to pat Kakashi's shoulder, but Kakashi actually ducked straight under the desk.
"Kazi Di, you shouldn't waste your youth worrying about other people's stares.
"We Jiahaos never care what other people think.
"Kakashi, you're a complete failure as a Jiahao."
As Bieshu Feifan and Might Duy approached, the people sitting beside Kakashi all gave up their seats.
Those who knew the three of them turned away too, pretending not to have seen them.
Kakashi sat in gloomy silence and let Bieshu Feifan and Might Duy sit beside him.
Nobody was willing to sit at the desks around the three of them.
Only the last few latecomers reluctantly sat down, their faces dark under everyone else's gloating gazes.
The written test soon began. Since
