Chapter 8 Wounded
Chapter 8 Wounded
"Teacher, I agree." Shenyue Xingyun did not refuse.
The sparring session before graduation is a crucial moment for students to graduate and for the team leaders to select graduating members. The students' performance will directly affect their class assignments, something his late father, a special jonin, had told him.
He can avoid Obito Uchiha's challenge for now, but if he backs down, it will directly affect his graduation class placement. This time, he must graduate smoothly. If he ends up in the cannon fodder class, it will be a loss.
"Okay." The male teacher took out his notebook: "Uchiha Obito, versus Shingetsu Seiun."
"The seal of opposition."
The onlookers immediately cheered.
"Go for it, Obito!"
"Swing your fists and kicks hard!"
"Don't let it slip in front of the bottom runner this time!"
"I'll stake your Uchiha honor on it!" The male students shouted in unison, their voices rising and falling, unable to be suppressed even by the teacher's glances.
Hearing the cheers from all around, Obito Uchiha raised his chin high and formed the hand seal of opposition.
"This time, I won't be as careless as I was last time!"
With that, dirt flew up from his feet, and he moved instantly, rushing over like a gust of wind.
Shingetsu Seiun focused intently on Obito Uchiha's movements, his nimble hands poised to strike. The instant Obito's fist suddenly swung out in front of him, Shingetsu Seiun unleashed a powerful strike with his right hand, aiming for Obito's cheek!
"Bang!" A muffled sound.
However, Obito Uchiha was prepared and anticipated Shingetsu Seiun's movements, using his other hand to block his opponent's slap.
"Hahaha~" Feeling his almost numb arm, Obito Uchiha laughed nonchalantly, "So it wasn't anything special after all."
"Take this!"
"Bang bang bang!!!"
A barrage of punches and kicks, fueled by rage, rained down upon him.
The situation suddenly became difficult for Shenyue Xingyun.
Although Obito Uchiha was nicknamed "the worst student," his close-combat skills were not weak in his class. If Shingetsu Seiun hadn't recovered to a "healthy" state, he probably wouldn't have been able to withstand more than a few blows.
Fortunately, the system was patched.
With 0.31 chakra points, his physical attributes had already been elevated to a level above genin. Both his reaction speed and resilience had seen a qualitative improvement. Shingetsu Seiun even deduced that if his body hadn't been so weak before, the system's 100x taijutsu upgrade card would have significantly boosted his taijutsu techniques to more than just Lv1.
"Bang bang bang!"
"God Moon Nebula, is this all the tricks you have?"
"In that case, you can't beat me." Obito shouted, surprised by Shingetsu Seiun's increased strength.
Shenyue Xingyun remained silent, focusing solely on defense.
Now that Obito Uchiha is serious, it will be somewhat difficult for him to win, but not too difficult.
However, rather than going to great lengths to win, he hoped to achieve other goals by gaining his teacher's approval during the battle.
While desperately defending against Obito Uchiha's punches and kicks, he also observed the situation outside the arena, as well as Rin Nohara's reaction.
"Attack! Shingetsu Nebula!"
"Are you just going to passively take a beating?!"
"Bang!" Shen Yue Xingyun seized the opportunity and struck Uchiha Obito in the chest with a palm. The latter immediately felt a tightness in his chest and staggered back several steps.
Taking the opportunity, Shenyue Xingyun provoked the other party: "That's it?"
"Obito, it seems your mouth is more powerful than your fists and feet."
"Don't you have any other means?"
Obito Uchiha gritted his teeth.
"hateful!"
Immediately afterwards, he took out a kunai from his ninja tool bag and, under the teacher's intense gaze, threw it out!
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh!" The kunai used in the combat class were all unsharpened special kunai. As long as they hit a vital point, the teacher would declare victory. Uchiha Obito even controlled himself a bit, avoiding Shingetsu Seiun's head, and all the kunai were shot towards the latter's lower body.
However, in his anger, he misjudged his own ninja tool throwing skills.
Shenyue Xingyun also took out an unsharpened kunai and deflected the kunai that was shot at his chest. As for the others, they didn't even get close.
Shingetsu Nebula: "Your throwing ability is about the same as your brain development level."
Obito Uchiha shouted, "Ah!"
He gripped a kunai and charged forward! Shen Yue Xingyun mustered all his strength and met him head-on.
"Ding ding ding ding!!!!"
Sparks flew.
The intense clash of kunai left the teachers and students watching in astonishment.
When did the strength of the Divine Moon Nebula increase so much?
The male students were indignant and suspicious, while the female students crossed their arms and stared at each other.
"handsome!"
"Nebula is so cool!"
"Yes, the way he brandished his kunai was like having his name etched into my heart."
"Why has Obito gone mad?"
"Yeah, that's really rude."
Amidst the sounds of clashing swords, Obito Uchiha couldn't hear the female classmates' voices, otherwise he would have become even angrier.
"Clang!!" With a resounding clang, the two kunai clashed together, and Shingetsu Seiun and Uchiha Obito stared at each other across the intersecting kunai.
Obito Uchiha: "Prepare to die! Shingetsu Seiun!"
Shenyue Xingyun: "That's right, I like Lin."
Obito Uchiha was furious.
Driven by his burning desire to win, he launched an increasingly fierce attack, employing wide and sweeping moves that even led him to abandon his own defense.
But the Divine Moon Nebula did not launch a sneak attack.
Instead, he became even more cautious. Finally, when he noticed that Obito Uchiha was swinging his kunai with all his might, and at the same time delivering a flying kick, Shingetsu Seiun's eyes narrowed.
"Now!"
He activated "Great Kabuto," significantly increasing the speed of his right hand. He wasn't aiming at Obito Uchiha's face, but rather at the opponent's kunai.
"Swoosh!" The unsharpened kunai slashed a wound on his arm with great force. Blood droplets splattered.
The next moment, Shenyue Xingyun crossed her arms in front of her chest to defend herself, taking the kick head-on.
"Bang!~"
Amidst the female students' gasps, Shingetsu Seiun's body arched backward, and then... fell towards Nohara Rin.
Nohara Rin, who had been closely watching the battle, exclaimed in alarm.
Without hesitation, she stepped forward and reached out to catch the Divine Moon Nebula.
The boy's weight caused her to stumble backward, but she didn't pay attention and quickly focused her gaze on Shenyue Xingyun's right hand.
On his forearm, on his fair skin, was an irregular wound, stained with blood.
Shinzuki Seiun ignored her wound and looked up at Nohara Rin's anxious face. "Thank you."
Nohara Rin did not respond, but quickly took out gauze and medicine from her ninja tool bag and skillfully disinfected and bandaged the wound on Shinzuki Seiun's hand.
A thought involuntarily surfaced in my mind.
"Such beautiful hands, what a pity."
Then, a hint of anger rose within him.
Obito, why does he go so recklessly? Does a fight between classmates have to be treated like an enemy?
