Naruto: Changing Fate

The words were divided into two parts, just as the village's senior officials were methodically strengthening the defense force in the dark, waiting for the Yunyin Village group to show up and fall into the trap.Because this news was not announced to the public, and most people in the village were unaware of it, the annual entrance examination for new students of the Ninja School was still in full swing.And as time goes by, the children who took the exam were either eliminated because they were overwhelmed, or they gritted their teeth and persisted in moving forward, and gradually showed two completely different endings.

While the number of references continues to decrease, the third and final round of entrance exams for the first day of recruitment at this year's Ninja School has passed more than half of the process and is gradually coming to an end and entering the final sprint stage.

But even though it has entered the final stage of the sprint, the current situation is still ups and downs, serious and not optimistic for the children taking the exam.

As far as the number of candidates is still decreasing sharply, the number of people who can stand out and be successfully admitted in the entrance examination on the first day of this year will definitely be the lowest in the history of the school!If the candidates continue to give up or reach their limit and are forced out of the competition, it will be a problem whether they can build a complete class!

Of course, this does not mean that the conditions of the children taking the exam this time are so poor that a large number of them failed the exam.The root cause is actually the same as what most people subconsciously complained about before - the seemingly simple entrance exam for freshmen, if strength is put aside, is just an intertwining of explicit and hidden rules. In terms of complexity and the true intention of the assessment, this can actually be regarded as a small Chunin exam selection.

And all of this is obviously the work of the time traveler, Naruto Uzumaki, who is the examiner behind the scenes.It was all for the sake of the future Chunin Examination, and they chose to eliminate most of the cannon fodder in this year's entrance exam and try to keep only the elite.In order to further reduce casualties and losses as much as possible on the basis that all members participating in the Chunin Exam have a certain ability to protect themselves.

Compared to the lengthy and arduous third round of exams, the entire process from start to finish of the first and second rounds of exams was so quiet that it made people wonder whether they had even taken the exam.It's because these two exams, just like the first round of the Chuunin exam in the original book, test the personnel's ability to adapt to any situation, which is what everyone is gradually recognizing as a word game.

For example, in the first round of exams, if you can enter the school through the queue in a serious manner, you will be like the top student in the original book who completed all the answers through your own ability.It is natural and understandable that it can be counted as passing the first round of exams.

If there is no way to enter the school through proper queuing, then candidates need to find another way and find ways to jump in line.In order to ensure that you can enter the school on time and pass the first round of exams before the number of candidates is full.In other words, in the first round of the written test of the Chunin Examination in the original book, the cheating behavior of the candidates was secretly reminded and encouraged.But if we have to talk about the difference, it is between the two. The former, that is, the exam currently being conducted, is much simpler and easier than the latter.

After all, although the original book encourages reference personnel to cheat in order to assess the candidates' ability to obtain information, if the method is too crude and naive and is caught by the invigilator, it will be directly counted as unqualified and eliminated. of.

Looking back at this freshman exam, if queue jumping or other cheating methods were used to enter the school first.This is because most of the reference persons are naive children, and it is only to assess their ability to adapt on the spot.Even if he was caught on the spot by the invigilator, he would turn a blind eye and let him in.They will neither be eliminated as losers nor suffer any punishment.In other words, it is a zero-risk option with no losses to speak of.

As for whether they passed the first round of exams on their own strength - for example, most children were carried in by their elders - this question is actually irrelevant in the first round of exams.After all, most ninjas never fight alone.So far from Naruto's point of view, being able to get help and support from others can be regarded as one of his abilities.

But this does not mean that if you always rely on your elders to make choices for you, you will be able to pass this exam without incident.On the contrary, most of the children who harbored this fluke mentality suffered a big loss in the second round of exams.

As the examiner behind the scenes, Naruto did not silently endure the unwarranted abuses, accusations and rumors as usual today without any retaliation.Instead, he made full use of it on the premise that he would definitely arouse the attention, dissatisfaction and hostility of most people when he appeared in the examination room.Deliberately using his body as bait to test whether this group of children, who are supposed to be immature and pure in heart, meet this evaluation.

In addition to what is claimed on the surface, in this second round of exams, the children are tested on whether they can control their emotions and not be affected by others - even their elders.More importantly, it is to test another basic ability of becoming a ninja.

That is the ability to think independently and make self-judgements.

It is true that among the group of children who were eliminated in the second round of examinations.Almost all of their parents participated in the riot by insulting Naruto and questioning the list of candidates who passed the second round of exams read out by Tenzo.As a result, the children around them imitate the same example, leading to the fate of their own children being eliminated from the competition.But this is not absolute.

Just like among this group of children who were eliminated, there are also a small number of children who were inspired by the people around them and decided to follow the crowd, but their elders did not participate in it from beginning to end. The same cases.Among the children who were able to successfully stay and participate in this final round of exams, there were also special cases where their parents followed the trend and insulted them, but the children remained silent.This is why the children made different choices under their own self-judgment, which led to completely opposite endings for themselves.

After all, in this second round of exams, the real test is whether the children themselves can question the wrong examples of their elders or even others, rather than the quality of their family upbringing.

And in this third round, it is also the last round of the entrance exam today.Just as Tianzang announced at the beginning, it is a comprehensive examination that adds the essence of the first two rounds of assessments.

At the beginning, Naruto used delicious food as bait and asked Xiao Tuanfan to set off one step ahead. This was not just to stimulate the enthusiasm of the remaining candidates to be fearless of tigers.More importantly, under Naruto's secret instructions, he could use this small time difference to make small adjustments to the guide signs along the way.For example, at a fork in the road, accidentally direct it in the opposite direction.

Although strictly speaking, that road is indeed in the same direction as the exam path, and will eventually rejoin neatly at the next intersection.Most of the invigilators responsible for observing the performance of the candidates were quietly placed at the intersection of these correct roads and wrong roads, just like the time trial overtime points in the racing games that Naruto often played in his previous life.Pass through these intersections in order. No matter how you get here on the way, as long as the movement is not loud enough to attract attention, you won't care too much.Calculated in this way, it is not completely wrong...but in terms of the length of the journey, it is ten percent longer than the original route.

Ten percent doesn't sound like much, but don't think that this ten percent gap doesn't seem to be a big deal... Don't forget, on the surface, the subject of this third round of exams is a requirement. The candidates ran a complete circle around the entire village.

Not to mention the total length, as far as this section of the journey is concerned, the [-]% extra wasted journey is enough to completely wear away the initial momentum and excitement of this group of candidates!What's more, the length of the subsequent journey of injustice is also different.This [-]% calculation conclusion is just a comparison of the data from the very beginning.

In other words, the moment the candidates face the first fork in the road decision is the official start of the third round of exams.The first thing to be assessed is the freshmen's ability to adapt to their own environment, observe and judge - if they are unable to tell which path is correct in the village where they grew up, they would not dare to use it as evidence. Question and make the right choice.Then in the future, when you become a ninja and go to perform tasks in unfamiliar areas, you will be very easily confused and unable to find your direction, or even foolishly fall into a trap and be ambushed by the enemy.

If anyone can still follow the rules on the surface and complete the exam while still taking the wrong path.Then there is no doubt that being successfully admitted to the school is a sure thing.Because of their outstanding performance, they will be given special attention and assigned to top classes with relatively richer teaching resources.

But for young children, there are only a few who can do this.In other words, starting from the time Sasuke manipulated the sign at the first fork in the road, it was intentional or unintentional that the candidates began to consider whether they should take the risk of being caught and eliminated by the invigilator. It's time to exploit loopholes in the rules for cheating.

Although in the perception of the candidates, it will be because of the ninja school's failure to follow the routine in the first two rounds of exams.As a result, in the first half of the exam, most of them chose to follow the school's regulations obediently, without doubting his presence.However, after a lot of physical exertion, they experienced firsthand that relying solely on a Bingliang Pill and a small amount of drinking water was definitely not enough to support their bodies to complete the entire exam.If you don't want to give up, then you can only consider taking risks and breaking the rules.Among them, there are several relatively simple loopholes in the rules that are deliberately given at this time to reduce the burden on the candidates.

The first one is that, like Shikamaru, he is keenly aware of the tricks in the choices at the fork in the road.And firmly believe in your choice and take the right path, so as to reduce physical energy consumption in disguise by shortening the distance.

The second one is just like the three naughty kids who came to provoke Sasuke without overestimating their capabilities and tried to take advantage of their numbers to seize military ration pills and drinking water from the lone candidates to supplement their own consumption. ...Although the method may seem too violent and shameless to outsiders.But strictly speaking, it is within the scope of the rules.

After all, at the beginning of the exam, although the official examiner Tian Zang had made it serious and clear - the only recovery item that the candidates could use during the exam was a soldier's grain pill uniformly distributed by the school. , and drink a small amount of water.But he never mentioned a word from beginning to end. These recovery items cannot be forcibly taken away by others, right?

The reason why these three naughty kids were able to find Sasuke faster than Naruto was because Naruto spent too much time on the Ino, Deer and Butterfly trio.It is precisely because he has snatched the military food pills from many candidates to replenish himself that he can stuff one into his mouth from time to time, so that he can maintain an almost luxurious state of chakra at all times without any worries. Because of running at full speed.

It's a pity that after kicking Sasuke's iron plate, their good luck ended here... It's not good to offend anyone, but they offended Xiao Uanfan who was full of resentment. He was destined to be used as a punching bag. , received a severe beating for Naruto, and faced the tragic fate of leaving the show early with scars all over his body.

In a sense, in the words of Naruto's world, this is probably... if you come out to hang out, you will have to pay back sooner or later.

The third one, which is also the real shortcut for passing the third round of exams, is found in the weight-bearing equipment distributed to each candidate from the beginning of the exam.

That's right, the exam rules clearly state that even if the candidate completes the goal of running around the village, it does not completely count as passing the exam.When you return to school, you must have the weight-bearing equipment issued by the school to be considered qualified.

And this key word game appears in this humble rule.

Just when everyone took it for granted that they should always carry this heavy-duty equipment that consumes a lot of physical energy and complete the entire exam honestly, they failed to discover... Just as Naruto started, he Hinata's load-bearing equipment was carried on her own shoulders.There is still an extremely simple loophole in this rule - that is, as long as the candidate has a piece of weight-bearing equipment on him when he returns to school.

After all, the load-bearing equipment is only distributed to everyone, but there is no mark on it to indicate who it belongs to?

In other words, as long as the goal of arriving at school with weight-bearing equipment is achieved.So whether during the exam, you transfer the weight-bearing equipment to your teammates to help carry it, or even if you accidentally lose it, it is absolutely fine if someone else transfers it to you.

Of course, there is an easier way, which is to discard the weight-bearing equipment from the beginning.After entering the battlefield lightly and completing the primary goal of circling the village, and thus maintaining a much greater physical advantage than the other candidates, he squatted near the school to guard the other candidates who were overwhelmed and panting.And just like seizing military ration pills, forcibly seizing heavy-duty equipment from them and taking it as your own is still within the scope of the rules.

Of course, there is a risk in choosing to discard the weight-bearing equipment - that is, the candidates who can return to school are basically very capable ones.So much so that when you choose to crouch, you are not [-]% sure that your group will be able to successfully rob.What's more, they need to worry about whether the other party has the same intention as themselves. After a fight, they find that the other party does not have the necessary load-bearing equipment to pass the exam, and it becomes a futile effort.

Yes, but you can also consider opportunistically throwing away the heavy-duty equipment in the first half of the journey, and in the second half or the middle period, pick up the heavy-duty equipment discarded by others from the roadside for your own use.Although the physical energy consumption is not as low as discarding the weight-bearing equipment from beginning to end, it is still one of the safer and more secure methods.

There is even a way to abandon the heavy-duty equipment throughout the whole process, betray your companions at the last moment, and seize their heavy-duty equipment from their companions to ensure that you pass the level smoothly!Although it is very likely to be spurned and criticized by others afterwards, in terms of rules alone, this is indeed one of the feasible solutions...

It can be said that in this third round of exams, the way to pass it is not limited to the rigid rules on the surface, but depends on how the candidates make flexible choices and give full play to their performance.

In other words, this third round of exams is the second round of Chunin exams - a simplified version of the Scroll of Seizing Heaven and Earth.The difference is that there is no need to worry about the trouble of survival in the wild, and the distance is relatively shorter than when capturing the scroll of heaven and earth.In this entrance exam, there is only one goal that needs to be captured and protected, and there is no need to worry about the same goal.And for candidates who choose to protect the weight-bearing equipment, it will also increase a lot of physical burden.

Because of this, as the third round of exams comes to an end, the atmosphere among the candidates has not relaxed.On the contrary, because they gradually became aware of the loopholes in the rules, they gradually became anxious and nervous and became wary of each other...so that even though they were just a group of children, the smell of gunpowder smoke among them represented the imminent start of a big melee. , but it became more and more intense and obvious.

Until one of them couldn't bear the tension of this weird atmosphere, like the flame igniting the fuse of a bomb, he took the lead...

The real highlight is just about to begin...
