"Hua Jingfeng, what exactly is this thing?"
Takano Takeya used all her strength, but still couldn't escape the restraint of the 'black glove'.
"Takano, this is my Bloodline Limit!"
Hua Jingfeng's eyes narrowed slightly, her head tilted, a sweet smile on her face, and her voice was clear and pleasant.
"Bloodline Limit?"
Takano Takeya, being from a commoner family, had naturally heard of abilities like Bloodline Limit; for example, the two great noble clans of Konoha, Uchiha and Hyuga, had their own eye-technique Bloodline Limits, and the First Hokage, who founded Konoha, possessed the incredibly powerful Bloodline Limit—Wood Release.
Therefore, when Hua Jingfeng said she possessed a Bloodline Limit, Takano Takeya's first reaction was shock, followed by panic, because at that moment, the 'black glove' on her hand continued to spread up her arm, like black ink slowly seeping into her skin...
"Hua Jingfeng, let me go!"
Takano Takeya fearfully swung her other hand at Hua Jingfeng, trying to make her let go that way.
"Takano, don't worry, I won't hurt you. At most, I'm just testing my Shadow Release on you..."
With a thought from Hua Jingfeng, a 'black substance' instantly appeared again out of thin air, blocking Takano Takeya's attacking arm and transforming into a 'black glove' to control Takano Takeya's other arm.
As time briefly passed, Hua Jingfeng's Shadow Release had successfully invaded most of Takano Takeya's body. From a distance, it looked as if she had been drenched in a bucket of black ink, appearing very eerie.
"Feng..."
Otani Yuto looked at Takano Takeya, whose situation had completely fallen into a disadvantage, and couldn't help but speak to Hua Jingfeng. In this situation, it could actually be declared that Hua Jingfeng had won, as Takano Takeya had lost control of her body, and couldn't even speak...
"Teacher Otani, please rest assured. I'm just testing my Shadow Release ability. Takano will not be in any danger."
Hua Jingfeng looked at Otani Yuto and spoke with assurance, a convincing smile on her doll-like face, which made Otani Yuto swallow the words he was about to say.
"Shadow Release: Puppet Technique!"
Takano Takeya, unable to actively admit defeat, was naturally firmly controlled by Hua Jingfeng like a marionette. Through the 'invasion' of Shadow Release, Hua Jingfeng controlled Takano Takeya's body as if she were controlling a puppet, making her actions completely follow Hua Jingfeng's will...
"Is that the Nara Clan's Shadow Secret Technique?"
Mingxi, observing the characteristics of the 'black substance' from outside the arena, immediately thought of the Nara Clan, as the 'shadow-like' substance Hua Jingfeng used looked almost identical to the Nara Clan's Shadow Secret Technique!
"But Hua Jingfeng is clearly not a descendant of the Nara Clan. Could she be the illegitimate daughter of some old Nara family member? So the Shadow Secret Technique, passed down through generations, was taught to Hua Jingfeng?"
For a moment, Mingxi's mind began to fill with her own conjectures.
Among the upperclassmen, a very lazy-looking young man widened his mouth in an exaggerated manner. The faces of his two childhood friends nearby also showed a hint of surprise and doubt, their gazes moving back and forth between Hua Jingfeng and their companion with the high ponytail, as if confirming something.
"Hey! Why are you looking at me? I've never heard of such a 'sister' in my clan!"
The young man named Nara Zentarou spoke with a speechless expression.
His two childhood friends, upon hearing this, just rolled their eyes at him. If she has mastered your family's Shadow Secret Technique, and she's not from your Nara Clan, then which ninja clan is she from?
"Shadow Release: Shadow Warrior!"
On the field, with a low murmur from Hua Jingfeng, the 'black substance' covering Takano Takeya's body suddenly peeled away. From a distance, it looked like a 3D humanoid black shadow was printed out from Takano Takeya's body.
With the appearance of the Shadow Warrior, Takano Takeya, the host, directly fainted and fell to the ground. The scoring teacher, seeing this, quickly went onto the field to check on her. He only breathed a heavy sigh of relief when he discovered that Takano Takeya had merely fainted due to an excessive loss of Chakra.
After all, if a student were to die in front of him, his future would be completely ruined here.
"Hua Jingfeng wins!"
The scoring teacher first gave Hua Jingfeng a displeased look, then coldly announced the result.
Otani Yuto also came onto the field with concern and spoke sternly to Hua Jingfeng: "Don't use this kind of jutsu on your classmates again!"
"Yes, Teacher Otani."
Hua Jingfeng also hadn't expected the birth of the Shadow Warrior to require so much Chakra. If Takano Takeya's physique wasn't extraordinary, she might have already been in shock...
The Shadow Warrior is an application of Shadow Release by Hua Jingfeng. It can attach itself to an enemy's body and, like a parasite, absorb the Chakra within the enemy. Once a certain amount is absorbed, it will appear as this 3D humanoid form.
Of course, enemies can defend themselves with their own Chakra, but they would need to expend double or even more Chakra to resist the erosion of the Shadow Release's power...
After understanding the terrifying nature of the Shadow Warrior, Hua Jingfeng immediately controlled the Shadow Warrior to return to Takano Takeya's body, returning seventy to eighty percent of the absorbed Chakra, then transformed back into its original 'black substance' and vanished into Hua Jingfeng's body again.
Takano Takeya, having recovered a good amount of Chakra, slowly awoke due to her extraordinary physique. However, as soon as she woke up, she showed a look of horror, especially when she saw Hua Jingfeng's cute smiling face, the fear in the depths of her eyes intensified, as if Hua Jingfeng was not a sweet, cute little girl, but a terrifying great demon from the abyss of hell!
"Alright, form the 'Reconciliation Seal'."
The scoring teacher gently patted Takano Takeya's shoulder and spoke to her gently.
"Yes, Teacher."
Upon hearing this, Takano Takeya suppressed her inner fear of Hua Jingfeng and formed the 'Reconciliation Seal' towards her.
Hua Jingfeng, seeing this, returned a smile and also formed a 'Reconciliation Seal' towards Takano Takeya.
"The last same-grade doubles match has ended. After a one-hour break, the low-grade and high-grade matches will officially begin!"
Otani Yuto then looked at the students present and spoke.
"Yes."
The students responded in unison and then went to prepare themselves.
