Detonating the kunai to clear the way and break out of the barrier was not a wrong idea, but Tiantian still underestimated the power of the sudden calamity. Even if it was an ordinary barrier, it would not be broken by such a crude method.

Tiantian had to control the detonating kunai in her hand while observing the changes around her while she was escaping in a certain direction. She could not stop her steps, and as a result of multitasking, she neglected many things.

After running a long distance, Tiantian finally realized that something was wrong.

"How is that possible? After such a long time, he should have run out of the barrier long ago. Maybe he has even run far beyond the entire venue."

Tiantian realized that something was wrong and that this would not work, so he had to stop and carefully observe the details around him.

"Illusion? It turns out I've been tricked a long time ago..."

At this moment, Aburame Shino's calm and somewhat annoying voice came over: "I told you long ago that you have no chance of winning. If you fail to stop the barrier from opening, you will have no chance."

This has become Aburame Shino's home turf, and he is confident that he has enough power to defeat an opponent who has fallen into his trap.

"untie!"

Tiantian formed seals with his hands, intending to disrupt the circulation of chakra in his body to dispel the illusion. Unfortunately, it had no effect at all.

The cruel reality made Tiantian feel a little desperate.

As a female ninja, Tenten is actually a rare type who is extremely bad at chakra manipulation, unlike most of the other female ninjas who are meticulous and patient.

This also means that although Tiantian has the talent for time and space, apart from using the time and space warehouse, he is unable to use other techniques such as illusion, sealing, and barrier techniques. Even ninjutsu is not his specialty. Apart from the necessary basic ninjutsu, he is simply unable to perform other techniques.

This rare weakness of a female ninja makes it difficult for her to detect the illusion she is in, and her means of removing it are also limited. Now she has no way to reverse the defeat.

In the last competition, Tenten restrained Hyuga Hinata. This time, Aburame Shino also beat Tenten so hard that she had no temper at all. There was not even a chance for both of them to suffer losses. The cautious Aburame Shino would not be careless at all.

But even if he is on the verge of despair, Tiantian will not surrender.

"Double Rising Dragon."

At this point, the only option was to use indiscriminate large-scale attack ninjutsu, which could be used multiple times. This was Tenten's last resort. Following her instincts, she attacked, retracted, and attacked again aimlessly, hoping to hit Aburame Shino's body with luck and turn the tables.

"Is that all? If you don't have any other means, I won't be polite..."

As he spoke, the chakra fluctuations around him changed, and several ferocious giant khaki insects crawled out of the soil. The chakra light covering their bodies was extremely conspicuous.

Each giant insect was about half a person's height, and in front of the little girl Tiantian, it was taller than her waist. It looked like a real monster, and it looked a bit like a parasite, but the difference was that it had antennae similar to a triangular beetle on the top of its head, and it had a metallic luster, and it was obvious at a glance that it was not a simple creature.

"This is a beetle guard formed by a barrier that provides chakra to strengthen the parasitic bugs. In fact, there are more powerful methods, but I think it is enough to deal with you."

The beetles surrounding them from all sides rushed over at a very fast speed. Tiantian, who had nowhere to hide, jumped up, trying to escape from the encirclement. At the same time, the double rising dragon attacked again, smashing the giant insect below.

A few crisp "clang" sounds were heard. In front of the earth-attribute chakra beetle, the hidden weapons did not penetrate its defense at all. Some of the hidden weapons directly penetrated the giant insect and stuck into the ground.

"Are there any fakes among them?" Tiantian exclaimed in surprise.

"It's not that I can't use more, it's just that I have to save as much chakra as possible to defeat you and prepare for the next match!"

The truth spoken by Aburame Shino was so harsh to Tenten's ears, but before she could show her grief and anger, a huge force came from her back, causing the female ninja in mid-air to lose her balance and fall heavily to the ground.

"Can it fly with such a big body?"

"There are so many flying insects, what's so strange about that!"

There was a back-and-forth fight just a moment ago, and the winner was decided a moment ago. Tiantian fell to the ground and had no time to feel the pain all over his body. The soil on the ground suddenly became soft and slowly wrapped Tiantian up.

Tian Tian was shocked and took a closer look. He realized that it was not mud at all, but tiny parasitic insects that were constantly gnawing at his chakra.

When she was about to struggle, a huge beetle guard fell on her, completely eliminating Tenten's resistance. Only after the chakra in the female ninja's body was almost eaten up by the parasitic bugs did Aburame Shino release the restraints. She then waved her hand to remove the barrier, and a large number of parasitic bugs drilled into Shino's sleeves and disappeared in an instant.

"The winner is Shino Aburame!"

Tenten, whose chakra had completely disappeared, had fainted. The weirdness and power of the insect manipulator were fully demonstrated in the competition.

"Mysticism, summoning, barrier, illusion, chakra property change, the combination of these is so powerful, aren't you afraid that Shino won't be able to learn it?"

"What's so difficult about this!" Mizuki replied, "In fact, each part is not a difficult task for Shino. The difficult part is to use the various possibilities of matching and combining them to simulate the most suitable scene for yourself."

"The current change is just a fighting stance. Is there a possibility of different options for dealing with other people?"

Mizuki nodded and confirmed, "The Aburame clan is not a ninja that likes to show off, but the characteristics of the parasites, if they want to be fully developed, often rely on the talents of the family members to freely play, or some well-applicable skills to be passed down. Aburame Shino also has this intention, all I did was to give him a push, as for what it will become, that's none of my business."

"Where I stand is the enemy's disaster area. Suddenly, it turns out to be a scene-based barrier ninjutsu. A mobile barrier that combines offense and defense is really a troublesome secret technique."

Kakashi said with a sigh.

"Gai, the next person to compete with Shino should be Neji, right?"

"Yeah! But I have confidence in Neji. He is a true genius and won't lose so easily."

Mizuki's clone, who had been silent before, interrupted and said, "You may not know since you were not here before, but Neji and Takinin had a hard fight and are not in good physical condition now. Shino won easily and is in much better condition than Neji."

These words immediately made Might Guy, who was full of confidence, look down.
