章節 81: Chapter 81: The Final Showdown
A moment later, Seimei withdrew his gaze, suppressed his inner agitation, and began to quietly wait for the end of the first round of matches.
A few minutes later, the fourteenth match of the first round ended.
The fourteen winners were randomly assigned again and began the second round of matches.
Whether it was luck or Hiruzen Sarutobi intentionally saving the most exciting battles for last,
In short, in this second round of matches, Seimei and Uchiha Shisui still didn't face each other.
And without any surprises, they easily defeated their opponents.
At this point, anyone with a discerning eye could see that Seimei and Uchiha Shisui's strength was a cut above the others.
The final winner would only be decided between the two of them.
It was also fortunate that the promotion to Chunin was based on the overall performance of the three exams, not just the ranking in this match.
Otherwise, the other examinees would probably be competing passively now.
...
Time passed by.
An hour and a half later.
The second round of the third match ended.
The seven winners were grouped again, but because it was an odd number, one person would get a bye.
Seimei didn't have any hope for his luck, but unexpectedly, he got the bye this time.
However, after learning this news, he was only stunned for a moment before returning to normal.
The reason why he appeared so calm was naturally because he had enough confidence in his own strength.
Seimei believed that whether he got a bye or not this time, it wouldn't affect his promotion.
Therefore, he didn't care much about this result.
However, the other few people looked at Seimei with a hint of envy in their eyes.
Unfortunately, no matter what they thought, the exam had to continue.
By the third round, the remaining examinees were all quite capable, so the duration of each battle was slightly longer.
It took nearly an hour for all three battles to end.
Without giving them any time to rest, the draw for the fourth round began.
Without any surprises, he and Uchiha Shisui still didn't face each other, but each faced another examinee.
His opponent was a thirteen-year-old boy named Amano Kai, who had excellent close combat skills and knew some Lightning Release ninjutsu. His overall combat power was not weak.
But he was just not weak.
Against others, it was fine, but against Seimei, it was a bit underwhelming.
Moreover, back in the observation area, Seimei had already seen through the opponent's abilities.
Now, as soon as they clashed, it was like an open-book exam, simply too easy.
His decent close combat skills were nothing in front of his lv4 'Konoha-Style Kenjutsu'.
As for Lightning Release...
He didn't even have a chance to use it.
Finally, Seimei deliberately exposed a flaw while the opponent was flustered, luring Amano Kai to counterattack.
The opponent果然 fell for it, and Seimei immediately seized the opportunity, using 'Genjutsu: Sharingan' to end the battle directly.
When Amano Kai came to his senses, the examiner was already standing in front of him, blocking the incoming kunai for him, and announcing that Seimei had won.
After finishing this battle that could barely be considered a warm-up, Seimei returned to the second-floor corridor, leaned against the railing, and quietly waited for the final showdown.
He didn't have to wait long. Just a few minutes later, Uchiha Shisui finished his battle with another examinee.
At this time, the examiner's voice came: "The final match, Uchiha Seimei versus Uchiha Shisui!"
Hearing this, the eliminated examinees on the second-floor corridor all showed excitement.
Now everyone knew that Uchiha Seimei and Uchiha Shisui were the strongest in this Chunin Exam, so who would win when the two faced each other?
The examinees wanted to know the answer, and so did the Jonin.
Therefore, not only were the examinees very excited, but the Jonin also showed interest.
As for Uchiha Haruto, he was even more excited and couldn't hide his joy.
The top spot in the Chunin Exams would be decided between two Uchiha ninjas. Didn't this prove the strength of the Uchiha?
Influenced by the surrounding atmosphere, Seimei simply didn't take the stairs anymore. He put his right hand on the railing, flipped over it, and landed.
After landing, he bent his knees, dissipating the impact of the fall from the height, and stood steadily in front of Uchiha Shisui.
The examiner looked at the two of them and asked, "Are you ready?"
Hearing this, Seimei didn't answer immediately. Instead, he looked at Uchiha Shisui and asked indifferently, "Do you need to rest for a bit?"
Hearing this, Uchiha Shisui was a little surprised, as if he was surprised that Seimei would say such a thing.
According to his observations of Seimei these days, the other party shouldn't be someone who liked to waste words.
This wasn't because Seimei was arrogant and was giving the other party a chance to rest, but because this match wasn't a life-or-death battle after all, and there was no need to take advantage of someone's weakness.
That's why he asked this question.
Otherwise, if it were a life-or-death struggle, he would want to strike immediately.
Rest?
That was a dream!
However, Uchiha Shisui didn't continue along with Seimei's words. Instead, he shook his head directly and said, "No need."
Hearing the conversation between the two, the examiner didn't waste any time. He immediately waved his right hand down, his figure retreated explosively, and at the same time, he shouted, "Begin!"
The next moment, a "clang" sound came.
It turned out that the moment the examiner's voice fell, Seimei and Uchiha Shisui both drew their short swords at the same time, then lunged forward, their short swords clashing fiercely.
Seimei gripped the hilt with both hands, continuously exerting force. Uchiha Shisui also held the sword with both hands, trying his best to resist.
But Seimei was two years older after all, and coupled with the several increases in his 'Physique' attribute, he was slightly stronger than Uchiha Shisui in terms of strength.
Therefore, after a stalemate for a moment, Uchiha Shisui chose to retreat.
And with this retreat, he lost the initiative.
Seimei seized the opportunity and used the 'Konoha-Style Kenjutsu' with all his might. The attacks came one after another, and Uchiha Shisui could only passively defend.
For a time, the sound of the two swords clashing was endless in the field.
Sparks splashed from the point where the blades met, showing the intensity of the battle.
Uchiha Shisui only felt the pressure increasing. He tried to counterattack several times to gain the initiative, but each time he was interrupted by Seimei.
The other party seemed to be very familiar with his sword moves and could accurately interrupt him every time he made a move, which made him very uncomfortable.
After thinking for a while, Uchiha Shisui suddenly realized - the other party was also an Uchiha ninja.
And being able to practice the 'Konoha-Style Kenjutsu' to this level was enough to show his high talent in kenjutsu.
In addition, he had already awakened the Sharingan, so there was no reason for him not to learn the 'Uchiha-Style Kenjutsu' that was very compatible with the Sharingan.
Maybe the other party's proficiency in 'Uchiha-Style Kenjutsu' was even higher than his.
Only in this way could it be explained why the other party could accurately interrupt his moves repeatedly.
'That's right, it must be like this!'
The more Uchiha Shisui thought about it, the more likely it seemed.
At the same time, he also realized that in close combat, he was most likely not Seimei's opponent.
'I need to change my strategy...'
Uchiha Shisui thought to himself while continuously blocking Seimei's attacks.
