It's better to be a rebel ninja than to be a Hokage

Chapter 32 Examination Room Attitude

1.笔试以扣分制进行，每人拥有10分的满分。试卷上一共有10道题目，答错1题便扣除1分；

2. When the examiner discovers "cheating or behavior that is considered cheating", 2 points will be deducted immediately for each such behavior;

3.以三人一组的忍班所拥有“团队总分（1人10分，3人则为30分）”判定笔试是否合格；

4. If a person answers all questions incorrectly or cheats 5 times, his/her score will be deducted to 1 points, and the other two people in the same ninja class will also be judged as failing, and the whole class will be eliminated;

5.The examination time is 60 minutes.

The rules of the first exam were written clearly in white on a black background on the blackboard.

"These are the rules for the first exam. Now turn over the covered test paper in front of you to the answering side."

Putting the chalk back into the chalk box, the chief examiner, Morino Ibiki, glanced at the clock hanging on the wall of the examination room.

The time on the clock is exactly four o'clock in the afternoon.

"The exam begins!"

Ibiki gave the signal for the official exam.

……

Naruto glanced at the exam rules written on the blackboard by Ibiki and focused on the test paper in front of him.

The first question in the test paper is code cracking.

Same topic as I remembered.

Naruto lost interest in the next eight questions and fixed his eyes on the last one.

【10. At the 45th minute of the test, the examiner will ask questions in person. Please write down the correct answers based on the examiner's questions. The time limit is 15 minutes.】

It seems that the core of this written test has not changed.

That's right... How could I have thought that he would use the torture techniques in the exam and carefully prepare the questions.

For Naruto now, it is an open-book exam.

Ibiki, the examiner of the first exam, confirmed the purpose of the exam.

Naruto lost his nervousness about this exam.

Not only that, because his exam seat was at the back, Naruto observed other people's reactions with great interest.

Naruto noticed that no one started to answer the questions.

When the exam started, all candidates behaved as if they had agreed.

Always mark the papers first and look for questions that you are confident about and answer them first.

However, on the test paper of this exam, Ibiki deliberately increased the difficulty of the nine questions that had been announced.

However, the difficulty of these questions is not so great that candidates cannot understand them at all.

Ibiki's questions are very targeted, allowing candidates to understand the questions but not be able to answer them correctly.

It will also make candidates clearly aware that "randomly answering questions based on luck" will never lead to the correct answer.

The questions on the test paper were not something that a ninja at the Genin level could answer.

The marking process won’t take that long.

But the fact that no one in the examination room took up the opportunity to answer the questions speaks volumes.

However, the Chunin hiding among the examinees did not start writing, which made Naruto unable to understand for a moment.

Didn't Ibiki arrange for a Chunin who knew the answer to infiltrate the candidates this time, as he did in the original work?

As soon as the doubt came to his mind, Naruto denied it himself.

The two Chunins disguised as examinees probably did not answer the questions immediately due to Ibiki's instructions.

During a 60-minute exam, the nervousness of not being able to get the correct answer will turn into irritability and depression as time goes by.

The less time there is in the exam, the more likely candidates will lose their composure if they are unable to answer questions.

He became unable to think about the true purpose of this exam, and thus committed extreme behavior - not cheating using ninja methods - but the most stupid and simple cheating.

These candidates who have no ninja talent are Ibiki's top priority for elimination.

In addition to the above-mentioned types of candidates, there are also some candidates who cannot answer any questions, do not understand the purpose of the test, and are even afraid to cheat.

They will put their hopes on the questions being given on the spot 45 minutes after the exam.

But most of the interrogation techniques that Ibiki prepared for this exam were concentrated on the last question.

Candidates who have answered the first nine questions correctly cannot afford the consequences of answering the last question incorrectly.

Those candidates who didn't get any scores in the first place would only collapse faster after facing Ibiki's on-the-spot questions.

But there are exceptions.

Naruto looked at the pink figure who was sitting in the center of the examination room seat in front of him.

The marking was over and Sakura had already started answering the questions.

She was the first candidate to start writing in the entire examination room.

He answered the questions faster than the Chunin who knew the answers and pretended to be a test-taker.

Perhaps it was an accident that Sakura, as a Genin, had an extraordinary amount of knowledge, allowing her to "take the exam in a normal way" like an alien.

Ibiki also looked at Sakura with great interest for a while.

And as Sakura began to answer the test paper.

Finally, the sound of pencils sliding across paper began to be heard in the examination room.

The second candidate who started answering the questions surprised Naruto.

"I didn't expect it to be Karin..."

At this moment, the speed at which Karin was waving the pencil didn't seem like she was writing randomly.

This was in stark contrast to her two fellow Grass Ninjas who were in the same ninja team but were scratching their heads and pulling their hair.

Karin's theoretical knowledge is surprisingly on par with Sakura's.

But if you think about it carefully, it's normal for Karin to be good at studying.

Whether it is Sakura or Karin, both of them will be medical ninjas with powerful medical ninjutsu in the future.

To become a medical ninja, one needs to have corresponding extremely high talents.

But talent is only the stepping stone to becoming a medical ninja. A vast amount of theoretical knowledge is required to use medical ninjutsu with ease.

Naruto was observing the various behaviors of the examinees with great interest, and 15 minutes of the exam time had passed.

The Chunin disguised as a test-taker finally started answering the questions.

If you observe the disguised Chunins carefully, it is actually very easy to guess their identities.

There were two Chunins disguised as examinees.

First of all, the number of people.

Ibiki did not allow the disguised Chunin to take the exam in the form of a "Ninja Class".

When queuing up to draw exam seats before the exam, those with keen insight should have noticed that the number of candidates that should have been divisible by 3 was suddenly one less.

Or rather... there are two more people.

The next thing to determine is who the extra people are.

Naruto looked at Gaara, Toss, Hyuga Neji, and Aburame Shino...

The four of them noticed something wrong with the number of candidates from the beginning.

The two Chunins began to answer the questions, and the four of them also began to use ninjutsu to cheat in the exam.

Personally participate in this unconventional ninja exam and take a look at the various situations in the exam halls.

Naruto found it quite amusing.

But unfortunately, even if he knew the purpose of this exam, he currently had no way to cheat.

He could only wait patiently until 45 minutes into the exam, when Morino Ibiki announced the tenth question in the examination room.

It will take another 30 minutes before the last question is announced.

Waiting for such a long time is very painful.

Naruto was also tired of watching the various little actions of other candidates in the examination room.

He yawned, fatigue suddenly coming over him.

This is really true... No matter in my previous life or this life, I would feel sleepy when I couldn't answer the questions in the examination room...

"Naruto, you should have noticed, right?"

At this time, Temari took the initiative to talk to Naruto, just like before.

But this time her voice was very low, probably to prevent being identified as cheating by the Chunin examiners invigilating the exam.

"What should I pay attention to?"

Naruto didn't understand Temari's sudden and irrelevant question for a moment.

"The questions on this test paper are abnormally difficult."

Temari continued to answer quietly.

I don't know if her hint can make Naruto realize the real purpose of this exam.

Hearing Temari's reminder, Naruto glanced at the test paper in front of Temari, which was as clean as his.

"..."

"I know."

Naruto glanced at his test paper again.
