"Everyone should already know by now…"
"For this year's college entrance examination, we've not only added discussion topics on how to rapidly increase favorability with Uzumaki Naruto, but we've also included detailed data sheets on the strength of various ninjas from Kumogakure."
"This is to ensure that once you enter the Naruto online game, you can get a better start—and obtain more powerful ninjutsu."
"As we all know, the Naruto online game that suddenly appeared has, according to scientific research, been confirmed as humanity's only weapon against the demonic beasts descending into reality!"
"Alright. To help you deal with the various problems you may encounter after logging into the Naruto online game, everyone open your textbooks and turn to page 233."
"That section explains the usage of kunai."
The sharp voice echoed throughout the classroom.
The speaker was a beautiful female teacher wearing black-rimmed glasses. Holding a textbook in one hand, her cold gaze swept slowly across the students.
Every student she looked at immediately stiffened in fear.
If a perception-type ninja were present, they would notice that chakra was already flowing through the teacher's body.
As soon as she finished speaking, the students hurriedly flipped open their textbooks to the page on kunai and began reading attentively.
Suddenly, a curious student raised his hand and asked excitedly,
"Teacher Wang, we heard that last week you joined the principals in the closed beta test of the Naruto online game. In just seven days you learned a god-tier skill like the Clone Technique. Could you show it to us?"
"Yeah! The Clone Technique!"
"I heard that once you enter the Naruto online game, you can actually become a ninja—and the Clone Technique is one of their signature skills!"
"And you can also learn the Substitution Technique and Transformation Technique! Amazing skills like those!"
"If we can learn them, we won't have to fear the demonic beasts anymore!"
"That's right!"
The classroom instantly erupted into excited chatter.
Seeing the students so enthusiastic, Teacher Wang smiled slightly.
"To be honest, I gained quite a lot from logging into the Naruto online game this time."
"That's when I learned that to use ninjutsu, we must first extract chakra from our bodies. Only after extracting chakra can we channel it to perform ninjutsu."
"Like this:"
After saying that, Teacher Wang fell silent.
Following the method she had learned during the closed beta, she quickly formed a series of hand seals.
Poof!
A puff of white mist burst into the air.
When it cleared, another figure had appeared beside her.
It looked exactly the same as Teacher Wang.
The entire classroom exploded.
"Wow! Ninjutsu is incredible!"
"That's amazing!"
"I really want to become a ninja!"
"Wait—what exactly is this chakra the teacher was talking about?"
"Who cares!? Once we enter the Naruto online game, we'll find out for ourselves!"
The students erupted into excited discussion once again.
Seeing their reactions, Teacher Wang took a deep breath and walked toward a particularly burly student.
"Actually, my talent is far inferior to Wang Qiang's talent."
"After obtaining access to the closed beta, Wang Qiang and several students from other classes managed to master both the Clone Technique and the Transformation Technique in just one week."
"As long as he learns the Substitution Technique next…"
"He'll be able to pass the Ninja Academy assessment in the Naruto online game and officially become a Genin with basic combat ability."
As she spoke, Teacher Wang looked at Wang Qiang with clear admiration.
Wang Qiang stood up proudly, his face filled with arrogance.
"To be honest," he said smugly, "through the closed beta, I've already reached Level 10."
The moment he finished speaking, waves of envy and jealousy spread through the classroom.
But mixed among them was obvious disdain.
"Hmph. Who doesn't know Wang Qiang's family is one of the four major families in D City?"
"They must've spent a fortune just to secure that closed beta slot."
"Exactly! If Wang Qiang hadn't taken Ning Feng's slot, with Ning Feng's talent he'd probably be over Level 20 by now—maybe even gotten a Genin headband!"
"Yeah. Isn't he just bullying Ning Feng because his family's poor?"
"I heard they gave over 500,000 yuan to the principal."
More whispers spread across the room.
The envious looks directed at Wang Qiang gradually turned cold.
But instead of feeling embarrassed, Wang Qiang became even more smug.
When his gaze fell on Ning Feng, sitting quietly in the corner of the classroom, the arrogance in his expression grew even stronger.
His expression practically said, Yeah, I'm rich. What are you going to do about it?
Seeing the atmosphere turning sour, Teacher Wang quickly waved her hand and signaled Wang Qiang to sit down.
Once the classroom finally quieted down, Teacher Wang turned toward Ning Feng.
Her voice carried a hint of sympathy.
"Ning Feng, this afternoon you'll be logging into the Naruto online game."
"Your performance there will directly affect your college entrance examination results."
"In all previous exams, your academic results ranked near the top."
"But according to the physical examinations, your body cannot extract chakra."
"That means you cannot cultivate ninjutsu."
"This is also why you weren't allowed to participate in the closed beta."
"If you still can't cultivate ninjutsu inside the Naruto online game and fail to demonstrate your talent…"
"…then it's very likely you won't even qualify to take the college entrance exam."
"You should understand that without ninjutsu, it's impossible to kill demonic beasts."
"You would be permanently cut off from the path of becoming a ninja."
As her words fell, many of the students looked toward Ning Feng with sympathy and regret.
Several girls even had reddened eyes.
Meanwhile, Wang Qiang and his followers sneered openly.
The smug smile on his face widened further.
"Teacher, I heard that in the Naruto online game there are ninjas who train Taijutsu to the extreme level."
"Does that mean Ning Feng really has no chance at all?"
At that moment, a faint fragrance drifted through the classroom.
A stunningly beautiful girl with delicate features slowly stood up, confusion written across her face.
"That… the teacher isn't really sure either."
"Haah…"
Teacher Wang shook her head helplessly.
"The entire world has only been exploring the Naruto online game for a week."
"Other teachers don't know much about it either."
"Hmph. Taijutsu ninja?"
Wang Qiang finally spoke again, glancing coldly at the beautiful girl.
"I've heard that any random Genjutsu in the game can trap a Taijutsu ninja to death."
"Exactly."
"Taijutsu ninjas have no future at all."
"They can't even pass the Genin exam."
With that, Wang Qiang directly declared Ning Feng's fate.
At that moment—
Ning Feng, sitting silently in the corner, suddenly had a flash of shock in his eyes.
"Hmm?"
"I… transmigrated?"
"A world where everyone plays Naruto… where people log into the Naruto online game to gain ninja powers and fight demonic beasts!?"
No one knew that the quiet boy sitting in the corner…
Was actually a transmigrator from the 21st century.
