On the day of the third round of the Chunin Exam, it was no exaggeration to say that the streets were completely empty. Anyone in Konoha Village who had some free time would basically go to the venue to see this rare grand spectacle in the ninja world. Even the somewhat unconvinced Kumogakure and Iwagakure had to admit the influence of Konoha Village in the ninja world.

Even though the Raikage and Tsuchikage did not come, it did not prevent them from paying attention to this Chunin Exam. As their eyes and ears, Dodai and Bunga arrived at the venue early. The candidates from the Hidden Rock Village were completely wiped out, and there were still two Genin from the Hidden Cloud Village who were going to take the exam.

There is no need to worry about the relatively normal female ninja Karui. Her outstanding speed and excellent swordsmanship make her a very capable fighter.

But Omoi was very worrying. With his superior speed and flexible swordsmanship, he should be stronger than Karui, but in reality he was at a disadvantage. The fundamental reason was that Omoi was too pessimistic, which often made him feel entangled in his thoughts and he was defeated before he could exert his full strength.

"You guys should watch other people's battles carefully later. If you are lucky enough to get a bye, you should make good use of it. The candidates from other villages are very strong, but you are not weak either. Don't embarrass the village. Do you understand?"

"knew."

Karui's performance was lackluster, and Omoi seemed a little absent-minded.

More and more people came in. As the person in charge of maintaining order, Shuimu stood at the back of the stands, watching carefully to see if any suspicious people came in.

Under Shuimu's perception, unknown chakra is basically difficult to evade detection, but there are too many people, and all kinds of small troubles are endless. Shuimu doesn't want to deal with these trivial matters, so he just tells Togakushi Hinode and Kosugi Bosui to deal with them. Big shots should take charge of the overall situation, and arguing with some nameless extras is really a waste of time.

As the waiting time became longer, Shuimu began to yawn unconsciously. Of course, Shuimu hoped that this kind of tiring and troublesome thing would happen as little as possible.

After a while, Hatake Kakashi came in, came up to Mizuki and greeted him.

"The big shots are coming?"

Kakashi replied, "Yeah, it's about time."

Unlike last time, this time, Hatake Kakashi was responsible for the security of the VIP stands. The ordinary field below was where Mizuki was responsible for.

"There are only a few of them, and a bunch of jonin are watching. Is it necessary? Look at this place, there are so many people, my eyes are sore."

"I just saw you dozing off!"

"Combining work and rest!"

Mizuki said indifferently.

"Why haven't Tenzou and his ANBU subordinates arrived yet? There are more and more people, and it's almost impossible to manage them..."

"It will be soon. Lady Tsunade and the Mizukage will show up later and the Anbu will take over the protection of the Dark Area."

Just as the two were chatting, Yamashiro Aoba led twelve candidates out to the venue. Standing opposite the candidates lined up, Yamashiro Aoba was giving instructions, probably introducing the rules of the exam or something.

"The time is up. I have to go up and take a look too. You are short of manpower here. If anything happens, ask for help in time."

"Got it, don't worry!"

In fact, at this time, Mizuki believed that no one would dare to make trouble, unless the Six Paths of Pain came in person. Otherwise, it was hard to imagine who would cause trouble in such an occasion where so many masters gathered.

The trouble is caused by some civilians who don't understand the situation. If they want, any ninja can suppress them. If there are too many people who want to cause trouble, a large-scale illusion can knock them all down.

As the nobles headed by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire entered the venue and took their seats, the Fifth Hokage Tsunade and the Fifth Mizukage Mei Terumi arrived late and sat down on the podium directly opposite the main stand, looking down at everything below.

When everything was ready and the atmosphere was about right, the ninja's efficiency began to show. Without any delay, after Yamashiro Aoba asked Tsunade for instructions, the Chunin Exam began immediately.

The first match between Konoha Genin Haruno Sakura and Sand Genin Aeno is about to begin.

…

The duel between the two female ninjas was not very attractive. They were not famous, nor were they from a family, nor did they have any remarkable heritage. The only thing that caught people's attention was that Haruno Sakura's mentor was the famous Hatake Kakashi, and there was nothing else to watch.

After the game started, it was just as people expected, there was no overly fancy ninjutsu showdown.

The mediocre physical skills and rigid fighting are really boring.

Off the field, Haruno Sakura looked at the female ninja opposite her who was about the same age as her. After a few rounds of probing, she had an idea in her mind. The opponent was very weak. Apart from her specialty of medical ninjutsu, she was no match for her at all. In this case, there was no need to waste too much energy.

Having made up her mind, Haruno Sakura raised her hands slightly, light blue chakra condensed, and the light of the chakra scalpel began to emerge.

Seeing that Haruno Sakura was getting serious, Yu Noi did not dare to be careless and stepped back slightly to form a seal.

"Medical Water Style - Water Mantis!"

The crystal water splashes gathered at the arms, forming curved sharp blades like the forelimbs of the insect mantis, a translucent weapon, somewhat similar to a chakra scalpel.

"Finally, there's something to look at."

Seeing that Yuno began to show her strength, Sakura was not afraid. She rushed forward, waving her arms, and killed the female Sand Ninja step by step. Even the ferocious alien weapons could not completely resist Sakura's attack. After practicing hard during this period of time, plus some swordsmanship basics taught by Hatake Kakashi, Sakura's strength is no longer something that a pure medical ninja like Yuno can resist.

Even an outsider could see that it was only a matter of time before Yu Noi was defeated.

In a corner of the VIP stand, Sunagakure Village jonin Fushigi shook his head in disappointment. Although he had long understood that a medical ninja who left the team to fight against others alone would have little chance of winning, it was still a pity to be eliminated so easily.

Although Yuno, who was struggling to hold on, knew that she was in a very unfavorable situation, she had no intention of giving up. Although it was very strenuous, her medical water escape technique - Water Mantis was not defeated by the chakra scalpel. If it became a protracted battle, she might be able to win by physical strength like the play-offs a month ago. Judging from Haruno Sakura's appearance, she should be one or two years older than her opponent, so her endurance would undoubtedly be an advantage.

It’s a pity that although Yuno’s idea is good, the gap in strength cannot be made up by a little trick.
