"Okay, everyone go back and sit down. We're going to start dividing into classes soon."
The kiss of the century was just an episode.
Umino Iruka soon appeared at the classroom door, ending the farce.
The girls were still not satisfied after the beating and returned to their seats unwillingly.
Uzumaki Naruto, who was beaten into a pig head, sat behind Izayoi.
Next to him is Haruno Sakura, who was unable to sit at the same table with Uchiha Sasuke and took the seat behind him.
As Umino Iruka walked to the podium, the noisy classroom became quiet.
Everyone looked at Umino Iruka expectantly.
Glancing at the classroom, Umino Iruka couldn't help but smile with relief when he saw that none of the students he had taught for six years had been eliminated.
Then, he calmed down and said with a smile: "Congratulations on your successful graduation. From now on, you are a real ninja."
After finishing speaking, Umino Iruka raised the file board in his hand and continued, "But now you are just trainees, and you are still new to the ninja. Before you can stand on your own, you need to form a group of three and train with an experienced instructor, Jōnin."
"Then we will start dividing the classes. The first class..."
Umino Iruka didn't waste any time and just started reading out the names.
As the names came out of his mouth one by one.
A sigh was suddenly heard in the classroom.
These sighs were all made by girls.
Although Izayoi has been 'occupied' by Hinata, who is in the top three of the grade, many girls still have a crush on him and hope to be in the same team with him.
And now, they can neither be in the same team with Uchiha Sasuke nor be assigned to the same group with Izayoi. They are extremely unlucky.
But the remaining girls became nervous and excited.
Each team consisted of two boys and one girl, and there were only ten girls in the class, so with every one less, their chances of being grouped with Izayoi and Uchiha Sasuke would increase.
"Team Six..."
Soon it was the turn of Team 6, and Umino Iruka read out the names of this group: "Minako, Sawano Genichi, and... Inuzuka Kiba."
Hearing this name, Izayoi's eyes suddenly flashed with brilliance, and the corners of his mouth involuntarily rose slightly.
The results are out!
Between Inuzuka Kiba, Aburame Shino, and the chief student Izayoi, Sarutobi Hiruzen chose to give up Inuzuka Kiba and invest in Izayoi.
Obviously, Izayoi surpassed all the other ninja clans and retained the top student title, which made Sarutobi Hiruzen see the potential in him to become a mainstay and ace force.
The Inuzuka clan certainly has amazing connections, but their fighting power needs to be coordinated with ninja beasts, so it is difficult for a strong Elite Jōnin to emerge.
Unlike the Aburame clan, which has all sorts of weird and powerful bugs, just like the Uchiha clan Three Tomoe Sharingan, they are nearly invincible in one-on-one situations.
Of the two ninja clans, Sarutobi Hiruzen chose to abandon the Inuzuka clan.
Only the Inuzuka clan will not have any dissatisfaction.
After all, Konoha is not short of sensory ninja clans.
Not to mention the Hyuga clan that has the Byakugan, the Aburame clan is also good at smell perception.
They also have an endangered species that no member possesses now, but if necessary, they can completely restart the basic insect - the micro-fragrant insect.
This bug has a sense of smell a thousand times stronger than that of a ninja dog.
Just by sniffing something with someone's scent, you can accurately locate them even if they are hundreds of miles away. It's incredible.
In terms of attack, there are nano-sized poisonous insects, and they can produce Elite Jōnin, which even Kage-level strongmen are very afraid of.
Although the Inuzuka clan has a relatively low status, it is still one of the ninja clans after all.
Izayoi had not expected that Sarutobi Hiruzen would be so courageous as to choose to invest in him and offend the Inuzuka clan.
Little did people know that Hyuga Hiashi had a big contribution to this.
Sarutobi Hiruzen already felt very sorry for the Hyuga clan when Hyuga Hizashi sacrificed himself for the village.
Now Hyuga Hiashi came to visit, just wanting his daughter to be in the same team with the chief student. Of course, Sarutobi Hiruzen could not refuse such a small request.
He already had the idea of investing in Izayoi, but he was just hesitant about how to arrange it.
Hyuga Hiashi's arrival was just to help him make the decision.
"Team 7, Sakura Haruno, Naruto Uzumaki..."
"Yeah!"
At this time, Umino Iruka was already in the seventh class.
Upon hearing that he was in the same team with Haruno Sakura, Uzumaki Naruto cheered, while Haruno Sakura had a look of despair on his face, feeling that his future was bleak.
However, when Umino Iruka read out the name next, the situation suddenly turned around.
"Uchiha Sasuke."
"Yeah!"
Haruno Sakura stood up and raised his hands, cheering.
Then, like a winner, she turned back to Yamanaka Ino with a smug look on her face.
Seeing this scene, Yamanaka Ino and other female classmates gritted their teeth.
"Team 8, Hyūga Hinata, Aburame Shino, and... Izayoi."
Hearing that he and Izayoi were in the same team, Hinata rarely grabbed Izayoi's arm and said excitedly: "That's great, Izayoi-kun, we are assigned to the same team."
"Well, it seems we are lucky today."
Izayoi, who had already guessed the result, smiled and nodded.
This class division really made him happy.
After six years, Izayoi has become accustomed to life with Hinata around.
He also didn't want to be separated from Hinata.
"Team 10, Yamanaka Ino, Akimichi Chōji, and...Nara Shikamaru."
After reading the last name, Umino Iruka put down the file board in his hand, took a final glance at the students who had accompanied him for six years, and instructed: "Students whose names have been called, please remember the names of your groups and teammates.
The instructor Jōnin will come to find you later.
Do not leave the classroom at will during this period."
After saying that, Umino Iruka walked out of the classroom.
No students said goodbye to him, and now everyone was looking forward to the rest of their ninja career.
Little did they know that there was another difficulty waiting for them ahead.
"Third shift, come out."
Umino Iruka had just left a few minutes ago.
A middle-aged man wearing a green vest appeared at the door of the classroom. His face was serious and majestic, making the classroom quiet in an instant.
When he was called to the third class, he felt like he was back to when he first entered school six years ago. He stood up nervously and followed them to guide Jōnin away.
"Class Five, come out. I am your instructor Jōnin."
"The first shift out."
"Team Nine, come out."
"..."
One by one, Jōnin appeared at the classroom door, taking away three students each time.
After a while, a large number of seats in the classroom were empty.
At this time, a lady who was not wearing a green vest but ordinary clothes, with a hot body and long black curly hair, appeared at the door of the classroom.
A pair of red eyes scanned the remaining students, finally landing on Izayoi and Hinata before smiling, "Class 8, come out. I am your instructor Jōnin."
After saying that, she turned and left.
"I'm leaving now. Goodbye."
Izayoi said hello to Uchiha Sasuke and Uzumaki Naruto, then walked out of the classroom with Hinata.
As for Aburame Shino, this top student with a very low presence, he has long disappeared.
