Chapter 90 Winning People Over with Virtue
Chapter 90 Winning People Over with Virtue
Both inside and outside the arena, only Minato Namikaze clearly saw Mo Jingxian's actions.
After two "ding-ding" sounds.
Of the three kunai Asuma threw, two were knocked away.
The remaining one was held in Mo Jingxian's hand.
As for Kurenai Yuhi's shuriken, it inexplicably flew past her opponent.
Not only did it fail to launch an effective attack, it also caused Asuma considerable trouble.
Asuma paused slightly while forming hand seals to avoid the hidden weapon.
However, he quickly adjusted.
This also shows that the Hokage had a strict upbringing.
Asma may have his flaws, but his foundation is very solid.
Although the rhythm was affected, it did not interrupt the ninjutsu he wanted to unleash.
By forming hand seals, Mo Jingxian was able to determine that Asuma was about to unleash the "Fire Release: Great Fireball" technique.
To be honest, this is a good initiation procedure.
It features a short activation time, powerful energy, and low chakra consumption.
Almost all fire-style ninjas prefer to use this technique as their first move.
Asuma's chest swelled, and in the next second, flames would erupt.
Of all times.
Asma didn't notice that a water rope had already wrapped around his ankle.
Almost at the same time.
With a tug on the water rope, Asma immediately lost his balance and fell flat on his back.
Coincidentally, this point is exactly when the ninjutsu is activated.
As a result, he delivered one of Konoha's most memorable moments of the year.
A fireball shot straight into the sky.
More dazzling than fireworks.
"Hahaha..." Obito knelt down, sticking his butt out, and pounded the ground with his fist.
Aside from Obito's loud laughter, there was an eerie silence outside the arena.
A second later, Minato Namikaze chuckled helplessly: "This kid..."
"That's really mean," Kakashi chimed in.
Unlike Obito, the others didn't disregard their image, but smiles unconsciously crept onto their faces.
Just as Asuma made a mistake, Kurenai Yuhi rushed in to help him out.
As a result, their path was blocked by a water dragon that suddenly appeared.
The water dragon seemed to come alive, slashing, smashing, stabbing, and coiling, leaving her flustered and overwhelmed.
She had to retreat more than twenty meters away before she could see clearly.
That water dragon grew out of Mo Jingxian's back.
At this moment, the water dragon gradually shrank back into the human body, as if it had never appeared at all.
off the field.
Obito stared in disbelief, instinctively exclaiming, "What kind of ninjutsu is this? I've never heard of it before."
The "Eight Dragons" technique was a ninjutsu used by Mo Jingxian in his early years.
Obito turned his head in astonishment, staring at Kakashi, his tone tinged with disbelief: "Early on?"
No one answers, which means no response.
He then turned his attention back to the field.
Fortunately, Mo Jingxian did not continue the pursuit after knocking down Asuma, clearly giving him another chance.
Asuma stood up and was stunned for a moment.
Realizing what was happening, his eyes were filled with seriousness.
He and Hong retreated to a safe place, looking at Mo Jingxian who stood there without moving an inch.
At that moment, his pride was shattered.
He was called a genius from a young age, and with so many people saying it, he naturally began to believe it.
Today I finally understand the meaning of the saying, "There are always people more capable than you."
But he has an indomitable spirit in his personality.
Knowing the vast difference in skill between them, he still chose to draw his kunai.
"Mo Jingxian's technique activates too quickly," Asma muttered.
"This time, I engaged him in close combat, hand-to-hand, Red..."
Be careful.
"Hmm." Asuma took a deep breath: "Find an opportunity to unleash your illusion."
A simple attack strategy was determined.
"Let's go!" Asma charged forward again.
This time he was smarter and attacked Mo Jingxian in a Z-shaped pattern.
While keeping a close watch on his opponent's unpredictable water-style ninjutsu, he searched for an opening.
Red followed behind, using the figure in front as cover.
The two arrived in the blink of an eye.
It's clear that the two have worked together a lot, and their attack rhythm is quite good.
Mo Jingxian blocked all of Asma's attacks with one hand.
When Kurenai Yuhi made a quick move to assist, she was blocked by the water dragon.
The battle was quite intense, but the funny thing was that only Asuma and Kurenai seemed to be having a lot of fun.
Later, Mo Jingxian even put her hands down.
By controlling the two water dragons extending from his back, he kept the two people five meters away.
next second.
The water dragon struck Asma, but he turned into a wisp of white smoke.
It turns out they used a substitution technique to evade the attack.
Asma was quite resourceful; he used a reverse technique to instantly close the distance to his opponent.
This move was somewhat unexpected, and Mo Jingxian gave him a mental thumbs up.
The kunai, carrying a thin blade of wind, pierced towards Mo Jingxian's throat.
Hong followed suit.
Outside the arena, Haruno Rin's eyes widened, her surprise naturally evident.
The kunai stopped, and Asuma was entangled and immobilized in place by the third water dragon.
Black runes moved within the water dragon.
This is not a simple water-style technique, but a ninjutsu with sealing properties, unique to Mo Jingxian.
He has developed his own fighting style, and most of his ninjutsu come with sealing effects.
Asma's sacrifice was not in vain, buying precious time for his teammates.
Kurenai seized the opportunity and immediately activated her illusion.
"Enchanted Tree Binding Slaughter!"
Sudden.
The setting sun cast a reddish light before my eyes, and the colors of the world changed.
Looking at myself, I felt firmly fixed in place by the branches of a large tree, making it difficult to move even slightly.
By this point, she could easily guess that she had been poisoned by the illusion.
In his panic, he finally remembered the method his father had explained to him for breaking illusions.
A surge of chakra rushed into his head, disrupting his energy balance.
The world shifted, and when she opened her eyes again, she was back in reality.
The five senses are reconnected, and the bound signals are transmitted into the brain.
He tried to struggle, but couldn't muster the strength; the chakra within his body was listless and unresponsive.
The water dragon tightly coiled around the evening red and lifted it up.
Two fresh graduates from the ninja academy were left hanging in mid-air.
"This must be the fourth giant snake," Obito muttered to himself.
"Could he be Orochimaru's disciple?"
Minato shook his head in denial.
"He's not Orochimaru's disciple." Ayako Hyuga closed her Byakugan.
"And... that's not a snake, it's a dragon."
Asma was prepared to be humiliated, but he didn't expect Mo Jingxian to release the two of them so easily.
Without saying a word, he walked slowly toward the edge of the field.
"jingle……"
The bell finally rang, but unfortunately it had nothing to do with them.
"Oh, right." Mo Jingxian, having taken a few steps, tossed the bell over without turning back.
"Give this back to Jonin Minato."
The bell traced an arc in the air, and Asuma caught it.
He looked at the bell in his palm, hesitated for a moment, and then followed.
"Clap clap clap..." Minato clapped softly:
"It was truly a vivid and unique hands-on teaching session."
Mo Jingxian sat down next to Minato: "What can we do? It's an order personally signed by the Hokage. We have to stick to it even if we have objections."
"I think you have a talent for being a teacher." Minato happily accepted the bell Asuma handed him.
"I think so too."
Mo Jingxian turned to look at the two of them: "You both pass the test."
Asma pursed his lips, dissatisfied with his performance just now.
Hong, on the other hand, smiled particularly brightly.
Then, he changed the subject and began to comment on the two of them.
"Asma."
Asma immediately straightened up, completely subconsciously.
"Your foundation is very good; you have reached the peak of Genin in both 'body' and 'ninjutsu'."
But you're rather impatient, and you made almost every mistake you shouldn't have made during the battle.
My suggestion is…
Even the lively and energetic Obito listened quietly to his comments.
Mo Jingxian continued, "My suggestion is to temporarily abandon the training of complex high-level ninjutsu and focus on taijutsu first, while choosing ninjutsu that suits your combat logic as a supplement."
Asma, unusually, did not refute, but lowered his head and pondered Mo Jingxian's suggestion repeatedly.
He then turned to Kurenai Yuhi.
"Your question is...how to live!" Mo Jingxian organized her thoughts:
"As the genjutsu ninja of the team, he can play a decisive role at crucial moments."
But this statement has a prerequisite: you have to keep living.
Judging from your current strength, apart from genjutsu, everything else is too ordinary, no different from an average genin.
Once you enter the battlefield, you will become the enemy's first target for elimination.
So, you know what I mean, right?
Kurenai nodded, the captain's words echoing her father's frequent reminders.
"The battle is not over yet."
Mo Jingxian's words startled the group. Was he going to continue bullying the newcomers?
"I don't think it's necessary," Kakashi said, trying to dissuade him.
"It wasn't me." He pointed at Zhishui:
"From now on, the three of you will form a team, and you should get to know each other as soon as possible."
Now everyone understands.
I realize I was a bit petty and wrongly accused Mo Jingxian.
But what he said next still greatly surprised everyone.
"Uchiha Shisui vs. Asuma and Yuhi Kurenai."
"No, are you kidding me?" Asuma couldn't describe his feelings at that moment; he wanted to die.
This is incredibly insulting, pitting two teenagers against one child.
What was he thinking?
"That's right," Mo Jingxian answered confidently, "It's the two of you against him alone."
Shisui stood up and walked towards the center of the field.
He then added, "Your promise still stands. Go ahead."
Asuma and Red exchanged a glance, both seeing the dawn of better days ahead.
What's the difference between this and giving it away for free?
Thinking about it this way, Mo Jingxian is stubborn but soft-hearted, and a good person.
He was unaware that the two of them had already silently given him a "friend zone" card.
Right now, I'm chatting with Minato Namikaze.
"Brother Minato, look at Shisui. I think his talent is no less than yours."
Mo Jingxian didn't seem to be joking.
This piqued Minato's interest, and he began to observe Uchiha Shisui in the arena.
The two were not speaking loudly, but loud enough for those around them to hear clearly.
Obito had barely accepted Mo Jingxian's increase in strength, but judging from this tone, could it be that Shisui did as well?
He didn't believe it, thinking that Mo Jingxian's words contained elements of boasting.
His emotions, which had just subsided, were stirred up again, and he refocused his attention on the training field.
The result was as expected.
Ten minutes later, Asma returned dejectedly.
Today is his darkest day; he suddenly feels like there's no point in living.
He admitted to losing to Mo Jingxian, but he was no match for a six-year-old child...
