Lemon Tree Works: Naruto: The Legend of Ningci, Naruto: The Legend of Ningci Begins NO. 12, Trial

  Ning Ci quickly returned home, his heart also somewhat involuntarily excited. A girl he had liked for a long time in his past life's dream, he had confessed to her. For men, this was unavoidable, but fortunately, Ning Ci knew how to adjust his emotions.

  Some excitement slowly subsided, Ning thought about tomorrow's battle with Hong, who was a special Jonin and an illusionist ninja. Illusions, unless they were as powerful as Ponma Gyokuto's, couldn't deceive one's own Byakugan. Moreover, Hong's taijutsu was quite good, but now Ning had the most confidence in his own taijutsu. After careful consideration, he felt that there was nothing he had overlooked.

  Ning Ci put aside his thoughts about tomorrow's battle, took out the meteorite from outside the sky, and focused on practicing. With Hong Zhan, he was like a person who had turned on the cheat code, victory was certain, defeat was impossible, and thinking about those things was useless. What Ning Ci needed to do now was to fight for every second, to raise himself to his strongest state within the limited time, because the enemies that followed would not be small roles!

  The next day, the weather was very clear. Ning arrived early at the target location he had chosen yesterday and waited for two hours, but there was no sign of the person from yesterday. Ning felt a bit annoyed, but suddenly he thought of where the problem lay. The ninjas here were all on missions, and their schedules were uncertain. It was likely that the person from yesterday had gone on a mission today.

  After understanding, Ning Ci searched again in various training grounds, but only saw people cultivating the ninjutsu he had already learned.

  Looks like I'm having a bad day today, Ning Ci gazed at the sun that had already risen to its peak and thought with some frustration, since I won't be able to sneak in any studying today, might as well focus on perfecting my own secret techniques!

  In the afternoon and evening, Ningci was perfecting his revised Peacock Mystic Law. This ninjutsu will have a great effect later on. It's also one of Ningci's ideas for enhancing his combat strength...

  Glancing at the time, he felt it was about right. Ning changed into a purple short-sleeved high-collared shirt and white shorts, slung his ninja pouch over his shoulder, and casually walked out of the room.

  It wasn't long before the appointed time, and feeling a bit bored, Ning Ci looked up at the bright stars and moonlight in the sky, only to sense that someone was approaching this place. He lowered his head, and saw a tall figure with red hair.

  "What did you say we're going?" Hong asked Ning, who was standing on the branch of a tree, staring blankly at the moon. In her heart, she didn't know where a surge of anger came from. This little brat still said he liked her, but when he saw her, he didn't even acknowledge her. What's this? However, this little brat is quite handsome. Thinking of this, Hong felt a bit shy. She herself hadn't realized the strange changes in her own heart.

  "It doesn't matter, wherever you say it is! Ning shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, gazing at the bright moon in the sky. Suddenly, he thought of his past life and the peaceful world where everything was calm and serene. In that world, he spent his days doing nothing, thinking about the differences and similarities between now and then. A wave of melancholy rose from the bottom of Ning's heart."

  "Follow me!"

  Seeing Ning Ci being so lukewarm, Hong's heart felt a bit annoyed, and he said indifferently, then flew away at his fastest speed from the start, intentionally wanting to make Ning Ci lose some face. In Hong's heart, even if Ning Ci was very powerful, there was still a significant gap between him and himself, this accurate special move.

  After sprinting for a distance, Hong turned back to see Ningci's joke, but unexpectedly, Ningci was closely following behind him, and there wasn't even a hint of exhaustion on his face. How is this possible? At this moment, Hong finally understood why Asma said that Ningci was extremely formidable. Indeed! Hong had some admiration in his heart, no wonder he was recognized as the genius among this year's graduates.

  However, her physical technique is not the strongest, barely average, only illusions are her strong point, currently the strongest illusionist in Konoha, Akane has no problem with that, but she never thought she would meet someone like Ningci.

  Very soon, Hong led Ning Ci to their destination. This was... Ning Ci looked around in some confusion - wasn't this the Ninja School? Why had they come here?

  "Let's go to the school's training grounds, you've just graduated and haven't done many high-level tasks yet. As for fighting in the dark, you may not be familiar with it yet. The school's training grounds have lights!" Hong seemed to see Ningci's confusion and explained lightly.

  Ning Ci nodded slightly, actually he didn't care about these things now, but it was Hong's kind intention, so he'd better not be too cold to him, after all, from tomorrow on, the two would be together, so it's better to have less awkwardness.

  Following Red, Ning stepped into the long-forgotten training ground. Red seemed to be very familiar with this place and turned on the lights. The empty training room immediately became bright and spacious.

  "Do you need to prepare?" Hong asked Ning Ci, with a very reserved expression that showed his pride as an almost top-notch ninja.

  Ning shook his head, "Let's get started quickly and end this soon, I still need to go home and cultivate that!"

  "You!……" Hong was somewhat speechless, and a hint of anger flashed in his bright red eyes, "Alright, let's get started right away. I haven't even had time to bathe yet, but after teaching you, this somewhat arrogant lower ninja, a lesson, I'll go take a good soak!"

  Perhaps Akane still thought of Ningci as a little kid, and carelessly said those words, but Ningci was not what she imagined. The sum of their ages across two lifetimes was much greater than Akane's. Silver-white eyes overflowed with uncontrolled yearning, and her heart felt somewhat restless. She hastily shook off her own wild thoughts - when her mental strength was not focused, fighting against the illusion ninja would be suicidal. Ningci did not want to lose face.

  "Alright, let me see what kind of body technique Kaito-sensei, the famous body technique expert from Konoha, has taught you. Come on!" Red beckoned with her hand, and a kunai appeared in her right hand, her body slightly crouched, assuming a posture that maximized her explosive power, making her look like a beautiful leopard.

  A test of physical skills? Ning Ci was somewhat amused, a simple test of physical skills, Ning Ci's level was not as high as Ke's, but it was far beyond Hong's level, which barely qualified him as an upper ninja.

  "I'm here!" Ning Ci calmly reminded...

  Thank you for your support, I will work hard, there will be another chapter tonight, friends who are willing to wait, please wait a bit, it will definitely be before 12 o'clock!
