The eighth exam.
The two worst students at the Ninja Academy, Inuzuka Kiba and Naruto Uzumaki, had a clash of the underdogs, and Inuzuka Kiba unluckily lost.
The ninth exam.
Hyuga Neji versus Hyuga Hinata.
The son of the Hyuga Branch Family against the daughter of the Hyuga Main Family.
This was a revenge-like exam because Hyuga Neji's father, Hyuga Hizashi, died taking the blame for Hyuga Hinata's father, Hyuga Hiashi. Hyuga Neji always remembered this hatred, as well as the shame the Main Family inflicted on the Branch Family.
Even though he was from the Branch Family, Hyuga Neji was still a genius who surpassed Hyuga Hinata, easily defeating her. When he wanted to kill the girl with White Eyes in front of him, the other Jonin stepped in to stop him.
"Are all the other Jonin here to stop me?"
Hyuga Neji stared hatefully at the bleeding Hyuga Hinata, still immersed in his hatred. "Is this the special treatment for the Main Family?"
"This isn't any special treatment..."
Kakashi Hatake felt this kid's head wasn't quite right, so he took the initiative to speak, "Did you forget the temporary rule the Hokage Assistant added? No one in the village except him is allowed to torture or kill opponents, and you almost violated this rule..."
"Enough."
Akihara Kagura frowned and interrupted Kakashi Hatake, nonchalantly continuing, "Hyuga Neji, if you have any dissatisfaction with the Main Family, you can come to Root to find me..."
"And..."
Akihara Kagura leaned on the railing, watching the somewhat hateful Hyuga Neji below, "This girl named Hyuga Hinata in front of you hasn't done anything wrong; you should seek revenge on those who truly did wrong. I've also heard about your father's situation..."
Akihara Kagura's words shocked everyone present, "If you want revenge, you can kill the elders of the Main Family, kill her father, or even kill the high-ranking officials who ordered your father's suicide, or you could try to destroy The Hidden Cloud Village..."
"Kagura."
Kakashi Hatake rolled his eyes, feeling Akihara Kagura's words were getting more and more outrageous, "Be a little more rational..."
"In short."
Akihara Kagura interrupted his guidance to Hyuga Neji, continuing carelessly, "If this world is wrong, then fight to change it. Why bother making things difficult for this little girl named Hinata here? I've heard this little girl's talent isn't great, so she probably doesn't have much status in the Main Family; otherwise, she wouldn't have been handed over to the newly-appointed Jonin, Yuhi Kurenai, for guidance..."
"... "
Yuhi Kurenai's forehead twitched.
"... "
Hyuga Hinata was already sad that her cousin wanted to kill her, and hearing Akihara Kagura's words made the little girl's heart even more sorrowful.
"You've really outdone yourself..."
Kakashi Hatake's forehead twitched, feeling that if Akihara Kagura's strength wasn't strong enough, he might not live a long life, "You managed to insult three people with a single sentence..."
"Let's continue the exam."
Akihara Kagura waved his hand indifferently and continued, "I'll look into the Hyuga Clan's affairs, so don't interfere with other people's exams here."
"I came to see rivers of blood from two people, not to watch you wave those powerless fists to bully the weak. Maybe it's because you yourself are a weak person, which is why you don't have the courage to defy fate and can only bully those weaker than you..."
"I..."
Hyuga Neji powerlessly lowered his fists.
"Neji is a genius!"
Hyuga Neji's teammate Rock Lee quickly stood out, wanting to clear his teammate's name, "Neji is a true genius! You have no right to insult Neji!"
"What's this little guy with the bushy eyebrows called? It doesn't matter, you're disqualified."
Akihara Kagura frowned and, with a single statement, revoked Rock Lee's qualification to compete, scaring Might Guy into immediately wanting to plead, "Lord Kagura, Lee's mistake was unintentional. Please give this child a chance to prove himself, this is his..."
"Jonin Might Guy."
Akihara Kagura glanced coldly at Might Guy and continued, "If you say one more word, I might declare here and now that Rock Lee is permanently banned from the Chunin Exams."
"I am the chief examiner of this exam."
Akihara Kagura coldly surveyed everyone present, completely indifferent to whether or not anyone would accept his actions and words.
"What I say is the rule."
