Time flew by, and it was already the morning of the next day.
This was the first day of the new Chunin Exams, and the venue was the Ninja Academy.
Therefore, the entire Ninja Academy was on holiday.
Today, apart from the Genin who came to participate in the Chunin Exams, there were only Chunin and Jonin responsible for proctoring.
Seimei glanced at the gate of the Ninja Academy after a long time, yawned, and then walked into the school listlessly.
He took out the exam notification and glanced at it, then walked towards the target classroom.
Soon, he arrived at a spacious classroom.
It was crowded with people. Although they were all Genin, the aura they exuded was far from what ninjas in peacetime could compare to.
Seimei arrived relatively late.
So, as soon as he entered the door, he immediately attracted the attention of many people.
Suddenly, the classroom fell silent.
These people first sized up his appearance, then their gazes swept over his Sharingan without leaving a trace, and finally, they started whispering to each other.
Although these people looked away, Seimei could still feel that they were secretly watching him.
Seimei didn't care about this.
His gaze swept across the entire classroom. Only in the back corner were there a few empty seats left. Seimei walked straight over.
Just as Seimei sat down, a gentle voice came from beside him, "You're Seimei, right?"
Seimei turned his head and saw a child with a "button nose", a pair of double tomoe Sharingan, and a smile on his face, looking at him.
Who else could it be but Uchiha Shisui?
Seeing Seimei looking over, Uchiha Shisui took the initiative to introduce himself, "My name is Uchiha Shisui. You must be Seimei, right?"
Seimei's gaze swept over the Sharingan in the other's eyes, nodded, and said in a cold voice, "Yes, it's me. Is there something?"
Seeing Seimei's indifferent attitude, the smile on Uchiha Shisui's face faded slightly, but soon returned to normal. He smiled and said, "Nothing, just wanted to get to know you."
"Oh."
Seimei replied and ignored him, then趴ped on the table and started to catch up on sleep.
At the same time, the results of last night's test flashed through his mind.
The results?
Mixed, I guess!
The good news was that after activating the Sharingan, it still only took five hours to accumulate one proficiency point.
The bad news was that the effect of the 'Mind Reflection Technique' had indeed weakened.
Previously, every two proficiency points could increase the Sharingan's evolution progress by one point, but now it had become three points, which was 510 chakra points.
In this way, coupled with the doubled chakra consumption for maintaining the Sharingan, if he wanted to accumulate thirteen proficiency points per day like before, he would need a full 5,700 chakra points.
Although the improvement in basic attributes had increased the maximum chakra he could use every day from 5,500 points to 8,000 points.
But he couldn't use 5,700 points to improve the Sharingan.
According to previous calculations, even if he accumulated thirteen proficiency points every day, it would still take a full 385 days for it to evolve.
And during this time, the improvement speed of his other skills would inevitably slow down.
In other words, before the Sharingan evolved to three tomoe, his strength wouldn't be able to grow rapidly.
And this was something he absolutely couldn't accept.
After the Chunin Exams, he still had to go to the battlefield.
And on the battlefield, the enemy wouldn't wait for you to slowly improve your strength, so he absolutely couldn't slow down the speed of improving his strength.
But at the same time, he didn't want to slow down the evolution speed of the Sharingan either.
In this way, he could only increase income and reduce expenditure.
Let's talk about reducing expenditure first, which meant doing the most with the least amount of chakra.
To achieve this, what Seimei could think of for the time being was to improve the level of 'Chakra Control'.
Currently, its level was lv3 (220/1000), and it could save him 16% of chakra when using ninjutsu and genjutsu.
When it was promoted to lv4, this number would become 20%.
Don't underestimate this 4%. The amount of chakra saved at once might not be much, but over time, the accumulated chakra saved was not a small amount.
It just so happened that with his Sharingan evolving to double tomoe, he himself had become more proficient in controlling chakra.
In this way, it wouldn't be as difficult as before to gain proficiency in 'Chakra Control'.
Of course, if he wanted to go further, it was best to follow the previous plan and find a way to obtain a puppet secret technique from the Sand ninjas and improve by condensing and controlling chakra threads.
Only in this way could the upper limit be higher.
'Maybe after going to the battlefield this time, I can apply to be transferred to the defense line facing the Sand ninjas...'
This thought flashed through his mind and was temporarily suppressed by Seimei. He then turned to consider the issue of 'increasing income'.
Compared to the single method of reducing expenditure, there were more ways to increase income.
First, he could start from himself and improve his basic attributes to increase the maximum amount of chakra he could use every day.
And to achieve this, it wasn't too difficult.
Seimei had a premonition that once he merged the 'Konoha-Style Kenjutsu' and the 'Uchiha-Style Kenjutsu', his 'Physique' attribute should improve.
At that time, the amount of chakra he could use every day would increase.
This was from his own perspective.
Similarly, he could also use external objects to indirectly increase the amount of chakra he could use.
For example, the Samehada from Kirigakure Village.
It could absorb other people's chakra and then transfer it to its owner.
If he could obtain it, then he could gain proficiency in various skills by absorbing the enemy's chakra.
At that time, the speed of his strength improvement would definitely increase greatly.
Unfortunately, at this point in time, Samehada was still in the hands of Kisame Hoshigaki, and the other party was an Anbu ninja from Kirigakure Village. Seimei couldn't come into contact with him at all.
Even if he did, with his current strength, he was unlikely to be Kisame's opponent.
What's more, not everyone could use Samehada. It had a life of its own and only recognized people it liked.
So, even if Seimei got it, he might not be able to use it.
And similar to Samehada, there was also the Infinite Armour from Takumi Village, which could also absorb external chakra and then nourish the wearer.
But compared to the real Samehada, the Infinite Armour was even more difficult to obtain because it hadn't been created yet.
So, Seimei could only imagine it.
In addition to these ninja tools, some ninjutsu also had the characteristic of absorbing chakra.
For example, Water Release: Great Shark Bullet Technique, Earth Release Barrier: Earth Prison Dome of Nothingness, Corpse Sealing: Soul Absorption Seal, Wood Release: Wood Dragon Technique, etc. These ninjutsu could theoretically accelerate his development.
However, to practice these ninjutsu, either special Kekkei Genkai or developing new chakra natures was required, which seemed impossible for Seimei to achieve at present.
Moreover, these ninjutsu were generally not easy to obtain. Even if he wanted to learn them, he wouldn't have the opportunity.
But similarly, this also showed from the side that ninjutsu with this effect was actually not uncommon.
And as an ancient clan that had been passed down for thousands of years, the Uchiha clan should have similar collections.
'Perhaps, after this exam, I can try to look for it.'
Thinking this in his heart, Seimei's consciousness gradually fell into sleep.
A moment later, Uchiha Shisui looked at Seimei, who was snoring softly not far away, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. His fellow clansman was really big-hearted.
At a time like this, he could still fall asleep.
