The light of leaves

Chapter 34 Soseki: You don't even finish the soft meal, you want me to graduate?
Time flies, and a year has passed in the blink of an eye.

In practical class.

"Wind Escape Great Breakthrough!"

"Baishanchong!" (The old man's ability to name is really bad. He originally wanted to learn from Sakura's Sakura Chong to get the name of the individual art. Here, we are collecting the names of the individual arts that smell like Hokage)
The strong hurricane blown from Asma's mouth was blown away by Sōseki's punch, and the air flow scattered and rushed to the surroundings.

In the cloud of blowing dust, Soseki jumped out suddenly, and fiercely hammered forward with his raised arm.

boom!
The ground split open suddenly, forming a "crater" with a diameter of five meters.

Looking at the stand-in that was broken into pieces in the pit, cold sweat broke out on Asma's back, "How do you feel, Soseki is getting more and more violent now?"

Seeing Soseki rushing towards her again, Asma didn't dare to neglect, throwing a shuriken to disrupt Soseki's offensive, while quickly forming a seal.

"Fire Escape Dragon Fire Technique!"

Seeing a huge dragon spitting out flames blocking the road, Soseki threw his fists to meet it without changing his face.

Ordinary taijutsu ninjas certainly wouldn't dare to play like this, but for him, it's just a matter of condensing Yang escape chakra in advance to repair the wound, there is no need to avoid it at all.

The ferocious fire dragon was directly blasted, turning into sparks and flying.

Even Asma was a little dumbfounded, Soseki wasn't so reckless last time!
But it was too late for him to think too much, so he could only barely make a few seals.

"Wind Escape Vacuum..."

Painful feet!
During the attack, Soseki stepped on the ground suddenly, the ground trembled violently, and Asma's figure was slightly tilted to one side.

Oops, the knot was wrongly printed... Asma's eyes widened, and the small air mass that was supposed to be spit out from her mouth could only be ejected from another channel in the end.

Puff~~~
Hearing this melodious and long voice, Asma blushed, and just as he was distracted, a gust of wind blew in front of him.

Asma looked up, and it was surprising that Soseki's fist had stopped firmly in front of him.

On the other side, Yagami Qi has already made a judgment, "Soseki Kiyomizu wins! The two sides form a 'Seal of Reconciliation'!"

"Soseki-kun is so powerful, such a ferocious fire dragon was torn apart by him!"

"Speaking of which, Asma is really tenacious."

"Yeah, I also thought he should have given up challenging the squad leader a long time ago!"

"Although he hasn't won once, but... Poof, I'm sorry, when I think about his winning percentage ranking the bottom of the class, I think he is too miserable!"

In the whispered discussions among the surrounding students, Soseki patted Asma on the shoulder, "How is it, are you okay?"

"Hmph, I just..."

"Don't worry, he's used to losing for a long time." Yibixi, who has more and more poisonous tongue potential, said abruptly from the side.

Asma's eyes widened, "Don't look down on me, you bastard. I've made great progress now. In just two...three, four, yes, in just four years, I will definitely defeat Soseki!"

While talking, Asma suddenly caught a glimpse of Jing Yin writing something in a small notebook.

"Mute, what are you doing?"

"Oh, I wrote down your words, if you still lose after four years..."

Asma looked like "the baby is wronged", and said depressedly, "Ming Yin, even you have learned badly."

At this moment, Yagami Qi opened his hands and said, "Students, be quiet."

"I'm very glad that everyone is promoted to the second grade. From today onwards, you can be regarded as seniors in school."

Hearing this, everyone's faces showed excited expressions of eagerness to try. They couldn't wait to show their "senior" demeanor in front of the newcomers.

"However, don't think that you can relax. If you don't work hard, you may be surpassed by those freshmen one day."

Many people curled their lips secretly. They have figured out Mr. Yagami's routine now. Although it is their first time as a teacher, they also like to imitate what other teachers say that they are the worst students he has ever taught.

Isn't it true, I have led it once, of course it can be said to be the worst one.

Seeing that everyone didn't seem to believe it, Iori Yagami straightened his face and said, "Don't think I'm joking, among the freshmen this year, there are geniuses who are not weaker than Soseki and the others!"

"No way, among those newcomers, there are still geniuses at the same level as the squad leader?"

"Oh~ the rookies are indeed monsters!"

Asma thought, "Sensei Yagami is too much, so I'm classified as 'them'."

Yibixi couldn't help but said, "Don't worry, maybe Mr. Yagami didn't count you in at all."

Seeing this, Yagami nodded in satisfaction, "Now, do you know the pressure of your predecessors?"

Hearing this, everyone smiled.

Indeed, the previous seniors were really miserable. Not to mention being bullied by the previous seniors, they also had to bear the pressure from newcomers like them.

After explaining the precautions for the start of school, Yagami turned his attention to Soseki.

"Soseki, with your current strength, you can already apply for early graduation. What do you think about this?"

The crowd who were still joking suddenly fell silent, and turned their nervous and anxious eyes to Soseki, "Why, are we going to separate all of a sudden?"

Seeing that Soseki was silent, Yagami said again, "Except for the war period, the school's earliest graduation record is 7 years old. If you apply for graduation now, you will be able to break the previous record."

In the ninja world where "genius" is prevalent, creating various "records" is a very boastful thing.

Therefore, the eyes of the students also dimmed. They were reluctant to part with Soseki, but they were also unwilling to let Soseki give up his own honor.

However, for Soseki - he didn't want to graduate early, he was eating well now, how could he give up his plan because of such a boring thing.

Moreover, Konoha is not a place for charity. Once you graduate, you have to perform tasks in the team.

After all, a large part of the expenses for maintaining the operation of Konoha comes from the commission for completing tasks.

Except for some special circumstances, ninjas must complete the assigned tasks every month before they can rest.

For Soseki, who was in the stage of rapid improvement, he naturally didn't want to waste precious time on such boring tasks.

Of course, it's not nice to be stuck at school, so his statement naturally became——

"The more knowledge I learn, the more I can understand my own insignificance and ignorance. For such a superficial me, graduating early is not a suitable choice." Soseki said, his gentle eyes swept over everyone, "More importantly, , I promised to advance and retreat with everyone!"

There was a moment of silence on the playground, and then, there was a sudden burst of cheers like a tidal wave.

"Great, I knew the monitor would not abandon us!"

"Hey, it's us who dragged Soseki down. Starting today, I'm going to double the intensity of my training!"

Aside, the corner of Yagami Kai's mouth curled into a subtle arc, "Hehe, do you think I can't use new routines, teacher?"
