Following this, one student after another went up to complete the throwing assessment.
Some ran and jumped back into the crowd with the joy of surviving a disaster, while others walked back with ashen faces and lost souls.
"Rin, Chishimo, I passed, I passed!" Uchiha Obito was one of the former, and as soon as he returned, he eagerly began to share his joy.
Rin Nohara shook her head helplessly, "Obito, what are you making such a fuss about? Didn't you see that you just barely passed the passing line? If you usually trained well, you wouldn't be so nervous!"
Although scolded by Rin Nohara, Uchiha Obito's smile grew even brighter on his face, "Don't worry, Rin, I'm the man who will become Hokage in the future, how could I be defeated by a mere graduation exam."
Then he turned to look in the direction of Chishimo and Shisui, "Chishimo, Shisui, I've already passed the test, so you two need to work hard too!"
Chishimo smiled slightly at Obito and nodded.
Uchiha Shisui also smiled and clenched his fist, making a gesture of encouragement.
"Next, Uchiha Shisui!"
"I'm going!" Uchiha Shisui greeted Chishimo and the others.
Chishimo said nothing more, giving him an encouraging look, and then watched Shisui walk to the examination spot.
Uchiha Shisui stopped about ten meters in front of the wooden target, not rushing to act, but carefully observing the position of the wooden target in front of him.
Beside him, two rows of Kunai were neatly arranged on a stand, gleaming with a cold light under the illumination.
"Uchiha Shisui, are you ready?" The Middle-aged Teacher standing not far from Shisui asked in a deep voice.
Shisui nodded solemnly.
"Shisui, good luck!" Uchiha Obito and the others behind him couldn't help but feel nervous for Uchiha Shisui.
Asuma Sarutobi, who was nearby, was also intently watching Shisui's movements.
He also wanted to see if this person, who graduated early like Kakashi Hatake, truly possessed the corresponding ability.
Without further words, the Middle-aged Teacher directly shouted, "Then, begin!"
Uchiha Shisui swiftly swept his hand across the Kunai stand beside him; the two rows of Kunai instantly became just one.
The next second, ten Kunai were released almost simultaneously, all hitting the bullseye without exception.
Not to mention the students watching, even the teacher on the side didn't clearly see Shisui's movements before he was already finished.
"Uchiha Shisui, full, full marks!" Despite his surprise, the counting teacher still truthfully reported Shisui's score.
"Really?"
"Are you kidding?"
The surrounding graduates looked at Shisui with astonished expressions, as if they had seen a ghost.
Even the Middle-aged Teacher was a bit dumbfounded.
While full marks were rare, he had seen them before.
What truly shocked him was Shisui's movement when throwing the Kunai; it was so fast that he couldn't even see it clearly.
Everyone's astonishment lasted for a long time; no one even noticed Uchiha Shisui walking back to Chishimo's side.
"Did I overdo it a bit?" Uchiha Shisui scratched his head with a wry smile, looking at everyone's reactions.
"You did well, Shisui!" Chishimo smiled kindly.
"At my level, Chishimo, you can do it too.
Don't go easy on me later!" Uchiha Shisui teased.
Chishimo patted Shisui's shoulder and, without waiting for the teacher to call, already walked to the assessment spot.
Seeing Chishimo appear before him, the Middle-aged Teacher slowly recovered, and the look in his eyes towards Chishimo was different now.
Indeed, none of those who graduated early were easy to deal with.
Kakashi a few years ago was an example, and now he dared not underestimate these two Uchiha geniuses who graduated early in the slightest.
"Uchiha Chishimo, are you ready?"
The Middle-aged Teacher's shout brought the surrounding graduates back to reality, and they all stared intently at Shisui and Chishimo, beginning to whisper among themselves.
"This Uchiha Shisui actually got full marks, that's amazing!"
"You can say that again!
How many points do you think this Uchiha Chishimo will get?"
"In my opinion, at least eighty points!"
With Uchiha Shisui's performance as a prelude, no one dared to underestimate these two early-graduating juniors anymore.
Even Asuma Sarutobi no longer held the mindset of treating them as juniors.
His eyes were filled with nothing but solemnity; his intuition told him that Chishimo's abilities might even surpass Shisui's.
Uchiha Obito and the others, who had come to their senses, also widened their eyes as they looked at Shisui.
They never expected that the friend they had just made a minute ago possessed such strong abilities, and for a moment, they didn't know what to say.
Uchiha Obito was the first to speak, "Shisui, you're so amazing, then Chishimo must also be..."
Uchiha Shisui maintained his gentle smile and interjected, "Chishimo is much more powerful than me!"
Upon hearing this, everyone was shocked again, and they all looked towards Chishimo's direction in unison.
"Start!"
With the command, Chishimo's movements were identical to Shisui's earlier: grabbing the Kunai, throwing, hitting the target.
The entire sequence of movements was fluid and natural, and coupled with Chishimo's calm expression, it truly seemed effortless.
"Uchiha Chishimo, full marks!"
Wow!
Before the words even finished, the entire venue was shocked again.
Who would have thought that their graduating class would produce such geniuses, and two of them at that.
Meanwhile, the Middle-aged Teacher felt somewhat numb.
This time, he had really watched carefully, almost straining his eyes, but he still couldn't see Chishimo's technique clearly.
Could it be that he was truly getting old?
In the end, the Middle-aged Teacher attributed the reason to the abnormal strength of the two.
And Asuma Sarutobi, although he had some premonition, was still shocked once again.
When he thought of his previous audacious provocation of Chishimo, a strong sense of humiliation welled up in his heart, but he still comforted himself, thinking it was just good Kunai throwing, and that he wouldn't lose in terms of overall Ninja ability.
When Chishimo walked back to Uchiha Obito and the others, Obito stepped forward and grabbed Chishimo's shoulders with both hands, looking at Chishimo excitedly, as if he himself had scored full marks.
"Not bad, Chishimo, you also got full marks.
You truly live up to being my right-hand man, the future Hokage!"
Meanwhile, Shiranui Genma, who was nearby, didn't forget to continue pouring cold water on Obito, "Indeed impressive, unlike someone who barely passed yet still dreams of becoming Hokage!"
"Do you want to get beaten again or not!" In his anger, Obito charged at Shiranui Genma again.
Watching the two chase and flee, Rin Nohara felt a bit helpless, but still didn't forget to step forward and congratulate them, "Chishimo, Shisui, congratulations!"
With someone taking the lead, everyone else around also came forward to offer their congratulations.
Only Asuma Sarutobi still couldn't bring himself to do it, and could only quietly walk to a place further away from the crowd, looking at the people surrounding Chishimo and Shisui, feeling very unhappy.
On the other side, in the Hokage Office, Hiruzen Sarutobi was sitting and watching the image in the crystal ball in his hand, which was precisely the scene of Chishimo and the others' graduation exam.
When he saw Chishimo and Shisui's throwing, a glint flashed in Hiruzen Sarutobi's eyes, and he muttered, "They truly are two excellent youngsters.
It seems I'll have to cultivate them well!"
Immediately, Hiruzen Sarutobi called in the Anbu waiting outside the door and instructed, "Go to the Ninja Academy and tell the assessment teacher that the final exam will be temporarily changed."
After explaining the specific details, the Anbu member took the order and left.
Hiruzen Sarutobi then continued to focus on the scene in the crystal ball.
