The old man was very angry.

As Xiao Li screamed, everyone present discovered one thing - Xiao Li's Eight Gates seemed to have been lifted!

This was obviously the result of his failure to open the Eight Gates.

In fact, Xiao Li was seriously injured in the previous fierce battle with Sasuke.

Despite several days of recuperation, his injuries have not fully recovered.

In his current state, it is a remarkable achievement to successfully open the Eight Gates and persist until now.

However, continuing to forcefully open the fifth gate is undoubtedly a huge challenge to his body, which eventually caused the recurrence of old injuries and caused the Eight Gates to be lifted by itself.

With the disappearance of the Eight Gates, Xiao Li's body quickly fell from mid-air.

At the critical moment, a ball of sand quickly condensed in the air.

Gaara took action in time, controlling the sand to lift himself and Xiao Li up, and slowly landed them on the ground.

Facing everything in front of him, Xiao Li asked with a puzzled look on his face: "Ahem... why did you save me?"

Gaara remained silent, he slowly turned his head, his eyes fixed on Moonlight Gale.

Seeing this, Moonlight Gale knew that it was his turn to play, and then came between the two and asked: "Lock Lee, do you want to keep fighting!"

"Of course, how could I lose in such a place!"

Xiao Li struggled to get up and wanted to get up.

However, before he stood up, he fell to the ground.

Then, Xiao Li tried again, but unfortunately he still couldn't stand up.

Bang!

Xiao Li pounded the ground with both hands: "Damn it! Why! Why can't I stand up!"

As he spoke, tears flowed from his eyes.

In the stands.

Seeing Xiao Li like this, Kai felt bad: "Xiao Li..."

Swoosh!

A figure appeared in front of Xiao Li in an instant.

Everyone looked closely and found that it was Sasuke.

"Xiao Li, admit defeat, your body is no longer strong enough to support you to fight."

Sasuke said to Xiao Li.

"No, how can I..."

Before Xiao Li finished speaking, Sasuke interrupted and said: "Listen to me, Xiao Li, if you continue to force yourself like this, it will only make the injury worse.

Giving up now does not mean failure, but to better protect yourself.

We all know how hard and strong you are, but sometimes, wise choices are more important than persistence.

Moreover, this game is not the end, and there will be more opportunities waiting for you to challenge in the future.

So, please believe in yourself, admit this defeat, and come back with a stronger attitude."

Sasuke's words made Xiao Li fall into silence, with contradictions and unwillingness flashing in his eyes.

However, he finally nodded, indicating that he was willing to admit defeat.

The audience burst into warm applause and showed respect to Xiao Li.

They understood and respected his decision, and also saw his fighting spirit in the game.

Xiao Li looked at Sasuke gratefully. Although he was still a little unwilling in his heart, he knew that Sasuke was right.

This game was just a setback on his road to growth, and the real victory lies in constantly surpassing oneself.

With Xiao Li's surrender, Moonlight Gale also announced Gaara's victory.

At this time, Kai also came down from the stands and came to Xiao Li's side: "Xiao Li, you have proved that you are a real ninja!"

"Really? Teacher Kai?"

Xiao Li fainted as soon as he finished speaking.

Kai also carried Xiao Li on his back, then looked at Sasuke and said: "Thank you, Sasuke, I know that Xiao Li will never give up on his own initiative no matter what. Thanks to your persuasion, if you don't understand anything in physical skills, you can come and ask me."

After that, he took Xiao Li away.

And the next is the last qualifying match.

"Toss Cham VS Akimichi Choji!"

Choji's human bomb tank is powerful, but it is useless if he can't hit anyone. In the end, Toss Cham found the right opportunity and defeated him in one fell swoop.

And Moonlight Gale also stood up and said: "So, up to now, the preliminaries of the third exam are all over.

Congratulations to everyone for successfully advancing to the third round of the exam. Next, the third Hokage will announce the rules of the next round."

Then Sarutobi Hiruzen stepped forward and said: "The official competition will show everyone's battle to the audience. I hope that everyone, as representatives of their respective countries, will play their own games without regrets.

strength.

Therefore, the official competition will start in a month. ”

“Huh? Isn’t the competition now?”

Naruto asked in confusion.

“This month is the time for all the players to prepare, and it is also the time to invite the daimyo of various countries to come and watch.

Next, it’s time to draw lots. After the drawing, everyone can disperse. ”

Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, and Red Bean came out holding the lottery box.

Everyone drew the battle list in order.

The first game, Naruto VS Toss Nien.

The second game, Shino VS Temari.

The third game, Sasuke VS Gaara.

The fourth game, Shikamaru VS Kankuro.

The fifth game, Hinata VS Ino.

“Okay, in the next month, everyone should improve themselves and present a wonderful game for the people of various countries! "

After Sarutobi Hiruzen finished speaking, everyone dispersed.

......

Kakashi's house.

At this time, Kakashi was sitting on the bed with a complicated expression, frowning, and a hint of murderous intent in his eyes.

He kept thinking about the information he had recently found in his mind, and his doubts were increasing.

Just then, a figure suddenly appeared in front of the window of Kakashi's room.

The figure was like a ghost, silent and invisible.

"Hey, Kakashi, how is it, did you find anything?"

Sasuke said to Kakashi with a smile, his tone was relaxed, as if he was just chatting with a friend.

"Who!"

Kakashi subconsciously took out a kunai from the bedside and warily aimed it at the figure outside the window.

When he saw the face of the person coming, he slowly put down the kunai, but there was still a hint of doubt in his eyes.

"How did you get into Konoha Village? This is not a place where you can just come in. "

Kakashi frowned, somewhat doubting whether the man who called himself Uchiha Madara was from that ninja village.

"Humph, this is easy for me. Or tell me about your discovery. Don't tell me that you haven't discovered anything in such a long time?"

Sasuke's mouth corners slightly raised, looking at Kakashi with a bit of disdain.

"Of course, I went to investigate the mission about my father and found out..."

Kakashi took a deep breath, and his face became solemn.

"What did you find? Tell me quickly!"

Sasuke joked, his eyes fixed on Kakashi, as if he couldn't wait to know the answer.

"I found out... There is no record of that mission at all!"

Kakashi gritted his teeth and said word by word.

At the end, his voice was full of murderous intent, and the atmosphere in the whole room became tense.

Sasuke knew, of course, that this murderous intent was not directed at him, and then asked, "What do you think?"

"I want to... avenge my father! "

Kakashi lowered his head and said coldly.

"Really?"

Hearing this familiar voice, Kakashi raised his head in disbelief.
