Chapter 320: Kakashi's New Technique

Ninja Academy Teacher: I Get Stronger Just by Teaching, Vol. 238, Chapter 1: Kakashi's New Technique 【First time achieving an S-rank teaching evaluation, reward obtained — Yang Nature Chakra Nature Transformation Mastery, Yin Nature Chakra Nature Transformation Mastery】

The reward was extremely generous, directly giving Muyue two Master-level nature transformations, and the most special Yin-Yang nature transformations at that.

A large amount of memories related to the training of Yin and Yang chakra nature transformations continuously appeared in Muyue's mind. After organizing the memories, Muyue opened his status panel and took a look.

【Name: Hanyu Muyue】

【Chakra:...】

【Skills: Fire Nature Chakra Nature Transformation, Water Nature Chakra Nature Transformation, Wind Nature Chakra Nature Transformation, Yin Nature Chakra Nature Transformation, Yang Nature Chakra Nature Transformation...】

Regarding chakra, because Muyue changed his reward-grinding strategy, the growth rate slowed down slightly, but it was still considerable. By the end of this school year, Muyue expects his total chakra to reach 90,000 or even 100,000.

Although his recovery ability is a bit lacking, having a larger total capacity is still comfortable.

When he saw that the proficiency for both Yin and Yang nature transformations was only zero, Muyue fell into thought.

He didn't know why, but the first three times he obtained Master-level Chakra Nature Transformation rewards, they came with half the proficiency already filled, while this time they did not.

"Is it because Yin-Yang natures are special? Or was it a newbie protection period before?" Muyue speculated in his mind.

Obviously, speculating in the void would yield no results. Muyue would have to wait until the next time he obtained a Master-level Chakra Nature Transformation reward to verify this.

Still, Muyue was quite satisfied. A person with decent talent might only train one nature transformation to Master level in their entire life, while he had just obtained two Master-level nature transformations from a single class.

The next day, Muyue followed the same rhythm as the first day, but slightly adjusted the content. After finishing the morning classes, nothing happened from the system, and the reward was only settled after the afternoon class ended.

【Completed a high-quality lecture】

【Evaluation: S】

【Reward obtained: Taijutsu ability slightly increased, Fire Nature Chakra Nature Transformation +8, Earth Nature Chakra Nature Transformation +45, Lightning Nature Chakra Nature Transformation +35, Wind Nature Chakra Nature Transformation +10, Water Nature Chakra Nature Transformation +15】

Looking at the reward content, Muyue felt slightly disappointed. He had spent the whole day having Team C students train in taijutsu, hoping to trigger a reward that enhanced physical body, but it only increased taijutsu ability.

However, the overall reward was still very generous. If it kept increasing like this, by the end of the special training, Muyue's Lightning Nature and Earth Nature Chakra Nature Transformations would also advance to Master level. At that point, Muyue would have six Master-level and one Perfect-level nature transformations.

After two days of teaching, Muyue had figured out the mechanism for S-rank evaluation: it required a large number of students, high teaching quality, and a long duration to achieve. As for the rewards, they were completely different from the previous evaluations—what you teach is what you get rewarded for.

Although it was only a difference of one evaluation level, the fact that you get rewarded for what you teach was far more important to Muyue than the one or two ninjutsu from an A-rank evaluation.

For example, the medical specialty student would be coming soon. At that time, he would also try to achieve an S-rank evaluation, which might greatly help him in developing the power bank.

Of course, while the rewards were really good, teaching was also really tiring. When he got back, he was too exhausted to even read books; he needed to rest for a while.

As the special training progressed, the suspended Chunin Exams were about to begin. As examinees, Nara Saltwater and Asuma asked Muyue for leave in advance. The third round of the Chunin Exams was scheduled for Tuesday, requiring special training.

Considering everyone's need to watch the matches, Muyue directly gave everyone a day off so they could go watch the Chunin Exams.

Of course, this was a compensatory leave. Saturday of this week would not be off, and they would only take Sunday off.

August 4th, the day before the Chunin Exams.

Although there was only one day left until the Chunin Exams, none of Muyue's disciples relaxed at all.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Obito's body was burning with fierce orange-yellow flames, every punch and kick delivering heavy, high-temperature blows.

Whenever sweat appeared on Obito's body due to exertion, it would be evaporated by the high heat. He practiced the Fire Release Nintaijutsu that Muyue had taught him over and over again, from morning to afternoon, using the Breathing Method to repeatedly drain his physical stamina in search of a breakthrough.

Might Guy's Eight Gates plus Rock Breathing, and Kakashi's supernatural one-stroke kill against a jonin—the two of them put enormous pressure on Obito.

Not to mention Kakashi and Might Guy, there was also Mei Terumi, who countered him, waiting in the top eight.

Obito didn't want to lose. He didn't want to lose to anyone. He had spent most of his nine-year life as the dead last, and now that he had turned things around, he wanted to keep winning—winning for Muyue to see, for Rin Nohara to see, for Kakashi to see. He wanted to show everyone that he, Uchiha Obito, was inferior to no one.

Bang! Bang!

Around Might Guy, large trees and rocks were broken and shattered under his tremendous power.

Whether it was thick trees or hard rocks, none could withstand Might Guy's heavy kicks.

He was diligently trying to reach the limit of Life Gate plus Rock Breathing.

In the previous battle with the Mist Jonin, Might Guy realized that he was still far from Gate Four. Therefore, after returning, he trained his body desperately, not wanting to collapse helplessly in the next battle, forced to watch his teammates fight.

Moreover, he wanted to become a chunin, to be promoted to chunin as a strong person.

Although two ninja who had mocked his father had come to apologize, there were far more than two people who had mocked his father—those he knew and those he didn't, in the open and in the shadows.

Might Guy wanted to slap their faces through this chunin exam—the son of the ninja they looked down on would become a chunin just a few months after graduation, and would be stronger than them.

"Water Style: Water Dragon Bullet Technique!"

Rin Nohara maintained Water Breathing while using Water Style ninjutsu.

Under Rin Nohara's chakra, the river's current rapidly gathered to form a water dragon, then under Rin's control it spun around once and finally crashed into the water.

"Water Style: Water Prison Technique!"

After releasing the Water Dragon Bullet, Rin Nohara immediately formed hand seals and used Water Prison Technique to create a large water bubble on the river's surface.

Since using Water Style was easier by the river, Rin Nohara had recently been practicing Water Style ninjutsu continuously by the river.

She was well aware of her disadvantage—she had only been learning Water Style for a very short time, so she could only practice more to increase her proficiency.

"Everyone is excellent, so I can't hold them back. I'll try my best to win the first round." After her chakra was mostly depleted, Rin Nohara thought to herself.

Rin Nohara had a clear self-assessment—her strength couldn't compare with Obito and the others. She didn't even think about first, second, or top four; making it to the top eight would be a success.

She only hoped that in future battles she wouldn't become a burden to Obito and Kakashi, and that she could help them in combat.

"Thunder Breathing, Total Concentration!"

Kakashi silently pushed his breathing to the limit; in his eyes, there was nothing else except the wooden dummy made from special wood.

Crackle!

A brilliant yellow lightning burst from his toes and gradually covered both of Kakashi's legs; the powerful Lightning Style chakra activated Kakashi's cells, greatly increasing his explosive power.

Boom!

The moment Kakashi rushed out, it was as if a bolt of lightning struck the ground with a roar; then a flash of yellow light passed by, and a scratch appeared on the special wooden dummy, which then split in two and fell.

"Ha." Kakashi let out a breath.

"As expected, it's still no good. Flash can be used, but the new technique doesn't work." Kakashi closed his eyes, recalling his recent feeling, and said.

Although he hadn't fully mastered the Transparent World, his perception had become much stronger than before, so he could now react to the Flash that he previously couldn't.

But the problem was that after that battle, the upper limit of Kakashi's Breathing Technique had greatly increased, and his swordsmanship had also improved by leaps and bounds as if by enlightenment. Now Flash was no longer his fastest or strongest move.

Because there was a thunderclap at the moment of rushing out, Kakashi named the new move Lightning Flash. This was a new technique Kakashi developed by combining his recollection of the Transparent World feeling with his swordsmanship.

Lightning Flash had immense power and incredible speed, with no drawbacks except high consumption. As for the problem of not being able to react, Kakashi felt that it wasn't the fault of Lightning Flash, but his own fault. If he could activate the Transparent World, the reaction problem would definitely not occur.

Although Kakashi trained very hard, the Transparent World was even more difficult than the Marks; it wasn't something that could be learned casually. In this past month, Kakashi hadn't entered a complete Transparent World state even once.

"I'll try a few more times. With my current strength, I can't guarantee a win against them." Kakashi didn't lose heart, and soon continued practicing.

After his awakening, Kakashi never forgot his goal: Might Guy, Obito, and Shisui—these three who had defeated him—he would defeat them one by one in return.

Setting aside Shisui, who hadn't shown his moves in a long time, both Obito and Might Guy were currently very strong, especially Obito with his Sharingan. Using techniques that he couldn't react to would easily let Obito exploit his openings.

"Alright, everyone, go back and rest early. It wouldn't be worth it if it affects tomorrow's condition." At 6 PM, Mu Yue's Shadow Clone spoke.

Seeing his students so diligent, Mu Yue felt gratified. When these disciples first arrived, only Might Guy was diligent. Although Shisui wasn't lazy, he didn't have this kind of passion. As for Obito, needless to say, he went from looking forward to holidays to now using holiday time for training.

As soon as Mu Yue spoke, everyone stopped. They also understood this reasoning, but they had been too focused on training and hadn't noticed the time.

The disciples gathered together and rested a while. Since everyone was very tired, they didn't chat much—not even Obito, who was usually talkative. After briefly encouraging each other, they dispersed. Only Shisui stayed behind to train, because he was still a ninja academy student.

"How has everyone improved so much?" Shisui, doing extra training, was very puzzled and under a lot of pressure.
