During the war, there are three types of Chunin Exams registration. The first type is the recommendation by Jōnin Instructor, the second is self-registration, and the third is the clan arrangement, which corresponded to three-person groups, single civilian Shinobi, and clan Shinobi.
So, Kanpū, Reifū, Yuki, and Yama four people were arranged by the Gekkō Clan into two teams to register for the competition.
Kanpū and Reifū are in the same team, and Yuki and Yama formed another team.
After the grouping, Yama looked a little unhappy. The Chunin Exams was not a child's play. Just in case, he had practiced joint attack tactics with Reifū and Yuki in advance, but he didn't that the Young Clan Head would cause trouble halfway and took away Reifū directly.
Yama had a stern face and unhappy face until he arrived at the Academy.
Academy has three days off, so apart from nearly a hundred Genin who came to participate in the Exams and Chunin who invigilated the exam, there are no more students in the Academy.
Kanpū and Reifū stood together, and Kanpū looked strangely at the strong and tall proctor Chunin, and said: "Isn't the first stage of the exam supposed to be in the classroom?"
"Classroom? Hmph, do you think that Chunin Exams is the same as the Academy's exam?" Yama, who is next to him, snorted coldly and said, "If you are so naive, advise you to leave here early, so as not to drag down Reifū."
Kanpū squinted at him: 'I don't hold any grudges.'
Reifū seemed to be worried about Kanpū being angry, so he hurriedly interjected: "Kanpū, it is the time of war, so Chunin Exams' written test was skipped."
"Big Brother Reifū, what will the Chunin Exams test now? Will we fight directly?" Kanpū asked.
Reifū shook his head and said: "I don't know either."
Kanpū looked around, and saw that everyone around seemed to be in a state of confusion.
Time passed, and the dozens of Genin waited for a long time at the Academy's training grounds, but there was no movement from the proctor Chunin around.
An impatient Genin directly asked the nearby Chunin proctor, but the answer he got surprised all the Genin present: The first stage of the exam has already started.
"It's already started?"
"Then, what are the test?"
Faced with the Genin's questions, the proctor Chunin did not answer.
The Genin look at each other in blank dismay.
Kanpū looked towards Reifū, who also shook his head with a confused expression.
Kanpū looked at Yama, but this guy face is a little red. He snorted coldly, turned his head and didn't look at him.
Then Kanpū turned his gaze towards the surrounding Genin, who are all discussing spiritedly, and then looked towards the proctor Chunin, who was standing next him. He then rubbed his chin and started thinking.
'Is it the werewolf, and there are Chunin or ordinary person lurking among us Genin?'
Kanpū immediately used Sensor Ninjutsu, and at the same time, he reduced the sense range to the dozens of Genin present. In his mind, dozens of human-shaped lines appeared, most of which are blurry, and there were seven or eight that looked relatively clear, indicating that these people have more Chakra than the others.
Kanpū found these people one by one, two from the Hyūga Clan, one from theUchiha Clan, and the others are from Ino–Shika–Cho and other Shinobi Clan, and there's nothing strange about them.
'Excluding werewolf, what exactly is the content of the exam?'
Kanpū started guessing with everyone, but after guessing, he didn't know what they need to do in this stage.
Dozens of Genin waited from morning to noon, and guessed from noon to night. Feeling tired, hungry and thirsty, some of the Genin took out military ration pills and wanted to replenish their stamina, and some took out water bottles to quench their thirst, but unfortunately, their behavior was immediately blocked by the proctor Chunin!
"During the exam, you are not allowed to take a drop of water or a military ration pill. Violators will be disqualified from the exam!" One of the proctor Chunin said lightly.
"Why are you not letting me eat military ration pills?"
"So, what exactly is the test for this stage?"
"We're not even allowed to drink water?"
A lot of Genin are protesting and questioning, but unfortunately, after the proctor Chunin said those words, he shut his mouth again.
"Then, can we leave?"
Kanpū suddenly thought of something, and asked.
"Leaving is regarded as an automatic abstention." The proctor Chunin glanced at Kanpū.
Kanpū now understands what is going on.
"Kanpū, you seem to understand the content of this exam." Reifū, and the nearby Yuki and Yama also looked over.
Kanpū nodded and said in a low voice: "That's about it, by the way, how many days off is the Academy?"
"Three days." Reifū said, "So Kanpū, what exactly do we need to do for this first stage? Does it have anything to do with the Academy's days off?"
"I hope it doesn't have anything to do with it."
Kanpū's face was a little pale at this time.
He guessed that the purpose of this exam was to test their endurance!
After all, after being promoted to Chunin, they have to go to the battlefield, and they would certainly encounter death situation. The most feared is that when their stamina is exhausted, they can only use willpower to resist the hunger, overcome the difficulties, or wait for rescue in silence in a mortal environment, all of which are extremely difficult challenges for anyone.
So, this first stage of the exam is probably a test of endurance.
"Hey, Kanpū, what do you understand? Don't talk halfway, I hate that kind of person the most!" Yama said dissatisfiedly.
Kanpū's eyes lit up: "Like you, I also people who talk halfway!"
Yama is depressed: 'Then why don't you continue?'
Kanpū squinted at him: 'I won't tell you, I won't tell you.'
Then he looked towards Reifū and Yuki, and said: "Just talk less, save your stamina!"
Reifū and Yuki looked at the unfathomable Kanpū, and subconscious also closed his mouth, and then waited quietly.
The Genin around are not fools, and they soon noticed what they need to do, and then told their companions to shut up to save moisture and stamina.
Gradually, the Academy's training grounds became quieter and quieter. Even the people who have not guessed the essence of the first stage are affected by the surrounding environment and no longer speak.
The night was getting darker and darker. Even the bright moon is covered by the dark clouds, and the stars in the sky seem to lose their brilliance and they only lightly dotted the night dotted.
Then, the sun rises, the bright moon disappears, and the morning sun slowly rise, showing the start of the next day.
But the exam does not seem to end at all!
The proctor Chunin are still standing next to the Genin motionlessly. The Genin did not eat or drink for a day and a night, and the same is true for these proctor Chunin.
This gave them a huge sense of oppression!
"Kanpū, will the first stage of the exam last three days?" Reifū asked in a low voice.
Yama next to them, and Yuki also subconsciously looked over.
Kanpū wanted to scare Yama, but then he thought that if they were really at the point of exhaustion, it would be too scary, so he shrugged his shoulders and said: "Maybe."
Fortunately, it's not summer now. Otherwise, if they don't drink water for one day and one night under the scorching sun, they may faint directly.
But it's still exhausting. Kanpū looked around and saw several Genin kept swallowing their saliva, their faces turned pale, and they are on the verge of collapsing.
Kanpū also subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and then narrowed his eyes.
"If you can't hold on, you can just abstain." One of the proctor Chunin suddenly started speaking, "Because this exam will last for three days!"
"Three days?"
"No way!"
"After just one day, I was already unable to hold on, what should I do?"
Many Genin started talking anxiously, and several groups of Shinobi gritted their teeth and announced their abstentions.
But most of them refused to leave.
At noon, the proctor Chunin started speaking again: "There is still a day and a half before the end. Those who can't hold on can abstain."
This time, a few more groups of Shinobi left.
In the evening, the proctor Chunin spoke for the third time: "If you can't hold on, you can abstain!"
Kanpū opened his eyes. At this time, his lips were a little chapped and his throat felt like cracked soil, and he felt very uncomfortable, but even so, he still did not abstain.
Reifū looked at Kanpū's condition. Thinking that Kanpū, who is younger than him, could hold on, there is no reason why he can't stand it!
Yama and Yuki on the other side also clenched their teeth and insisted. After all, when training Kenjutsu, they also suffered a lot, so they are more tolerant than other Shinobi.
After a while, several Genin couldn't help but fainted due to hunger and cold.
Naturally, these people were all eliminated. This scene seemed to stimulate some Shinobi. After a while, seven or eight groups of Shinobi left.
At around eight o'clock, a burst of applause suddenly awakened the Genin who were present.
"Congratulations on passing the first stage of the exam."
A proctor Chunin abruptly said in a cold voice, "Next, we will take you all to the second stage of the exam. Everyone need to follow me, and those who fall behind will be eliminated!"
