Chapter 21 - Chapter 21: If You Guys Hold On, I’ll Admit Defeat

"Oh, welcome back, Hinata, Neji," Kiba greeted.

Neji nodded as a greeting, then turned and asked, "Ms. Kurenai, you wanted to see me?"

"Yes." Kurenai nodded and said:

"You know about the Chunin Exams, right? I asked you here today because I need a favor."

"What is it?" Neji asked.

Here, Kurenai seemed a little embarrassed: "I want you to practice with Hinata and the others."

Ask me to practice with them?

Neji glanced at Kurenai's expression and immediately understood.

There are many strong ninja in the Chunin Exams, so we must be careful. If Kiba and the others are too arrogant, they might be in danger.

Kurenai wants to use me to put them down.

But Neji really doesn't want to fight Kiba and the others.

How should I put this? When you have the power to challenge a Jonin, would you be proud of bullying Genin?

Obviously not. Besides, Neji knows very well that Hinata and the others will not be in danger in this exam.

But this is Kurenai's request, so it wouldn't be good to refuse directly.

Forget it, I'll just show her my strength. Thinking of this, Neji readily agreed.

"Okay, Ms. Kurenai."

Seeing Neji agree, Kurenai breathed a small sigh of relief. After all, they are her subordinates. She was a little embarrassed to ask someone else to put them down.

But recently, Kiba has been too excited and too arrogant. She is worried that Kiba will cause trouble for the team.

Asking Neji for help was a last resort. Fortunately, Neji understood what she meant.

"Let's start now, the sooner the better," Kurenai smiled.

"So, you three, who wants to go against Neji first?" Kurenai turned to look at Hinata and the others.

"No need, Ms. Kurenai, let them all come at once." At this moment, Neji suddenly opened his mouth and said very arrogantly.

"Huh?"

At this moment, everyone's eyes were focused on Neji. Some were confused, some were angry, but most were dissatisfied.

"Neji, are you serious?" Kurenai asked.

"Yes."

Kurenai frowned, feeling that Neji was too arrogant and a little displeased, but she couldn't say anything.

"Neji, are you sure?" Kiba said, his eyes gloomy. He knew that he was no match for Neji, but Neji's attitude was too disrespectful to them.

"Brother Neji..." Hinata was confused, not knowing why her Brother Neji would do this.

This would offend Kiba, Shino, and Ms. Kurenai.

Shino didn't say anything, but the buzzing insects revealed his inner thoughts, which were very unhappy.

The atmosphere was silent for a while.

At this moment, Neji spoke again: "One look."

"Huh? What do you mean?" Kiba asked.

"If you can withstand one look from me, I'll admit defeat in this practice," Neji said slowly.

"Hyuga Neji, you're going too far," Kiba shouted.

Earlier, Neji wanted to fight three at once, and they were dissatisfied, but they didn't say much. No one had seen Neji's strength, but he could perfectly complete S-rank missions, so he must be very strong.

Therefore, they were just dissatisfied, feeling that Neji was very arrogant, but now, Neji was completely humiliating them.

To want to knock them down with just one look, what a joke? Could it be that they can't even withstand one look?

This is blatant humiliation!

Even Kurenai couldn't stand it anymore: "Neji, please respect your opponents."

"Ms. Kurenai," Neji said, "would you rather have them humiliated in training, or lose their lives on the battlefield?"

Kurenai was stunned, speechless.

"Enough, Hyuga Neji, so what if it's just one look? Come on." Kiba shouted.

Neji smirked: "Ms. Kurenai, you should step aside too, I'm afraid it will affect you."

Kurenai was even more dissatisfied. Did Neji think that she couldn't withstand it either?

But she didn't say anything and stepped aside.

"Can we start now?" Kiba shouted.

"We can."

"Pressure!"

In the next moment, Neji's Byakugan opened instantly, and an unspeakable terrifying wave swept over instantly, as if the sky was falling and the earth was cracking, and the momentum was overwhelming.

"This, this is..." Kurenai's beautiful eyes widened, full of disbelief.

At this moment, in Kiba and the others' eyes, Neji was like an unattainable and insurmountable mountain, like a god. They almost lost their fighting power and collapsed on the ground in an instant.

Even Kurenai couldn't help but sweat coldly under this pressure and froze in place.

But she was only affected.

Until Neji withdrew his pressure, they couldn't believe everything in front of them.

"So, so strong, not, not even on the same level." Kiba said hoarsely.

"Brother Neji..." Hinata's eyes showed longing. So her Brother Neji was already so powerful.

"Cough..." Shino supported himself on the ground with both hands, his Chakra was in chaos, and insects were flying everywhere.

But they didn't know that Neji had held back. Although his current strength was not too high, he could completely deter elite Jonin with this move.

However, this move puts a lot of strain on the Byakugan.

"As expected, my strength is still not enough."

"Keep going."

Neji waved his hand and turned to leave. He finally got so many Ninjutsu, he couldn't waste time, practicing hard was the right thing to do.

The others watched Neji's departing back, speechless for a long time.

Time passed quickly.

In the past few days, Neji has been constantly practicing and mastered the [Fire Release: Dragon Fire Jutsu], [Earth Release: Earth Dragon Bullet], and [Earth Release: Earth Wall] three jutsus.

Although he mastered Pressure, All-Killing Ash Bones, and Spiritual Ball, these are still too difficult for him with his current strength.

The Spiritual Ball is okay, but Pressure will put a relatively large burden on the Byakugan. After using it, he cannot activate the Byakugan for a period of time. Of course, this is because Neji's current strength is not strong enough.

And All-Killing Ash Bones consumes the most. Even if he exhausts his Chakra, he can only release it twice, so he cannot use it easily.

Neji joined Tenten and Lee early and headed towards the exam location together.

Five days ago, Might Guy found Neji and the others and gave them the Chunin Exam application forms.

Three o'clock in the afternoon five days later, gather in classroom 301 of the school, Might Guy said.

Except for Neji, Tenten and Lee value this Chunin Exam very much. This will be their first step towards success.

Only Neji knows that in this Chunin Exam, no one except Shikamaru will be promoted to Chunin.

Even Shikamaru was promoted out of turn because he showed outstanding abilities in the pursuit of Gaara.

However, this is exactly what he wants. He didn't want to be promoted in the first place.
