Chapter 171 Xiyan Blocks the Road
The opponent's talent is clearly ridiculously poor!
It was clearly just a pastime for me, a plaything I found under the pretense of "dating".
Right now, she's just an ordinary Chunin, while her opponent is already a Jonin.
Chunin, Jonin.
As a ninja who had experienced war, she knew the difference all too well.
Chunin might be considered decent among their peers in the village, but on the battlefield, they're nothing more than cannon fodder. Every charge, every battle, requires them to live in constant fear for their own survival.
Jonin, on the other hand, hold high positions within the village and are no longer cannon fodder on the battlefield. Not to mention, they have already earned their reputation.
Leaf Village Demon Star!
A genius who fought against Scorching Release user Yokura and Sunagakure user Chiyo and escaped unscathed!
The huge gap made Honjo Aya anxious and angry, yet she had no way to vent her frustration.
Her former boyfriend, whom she once looked down upon, has now become a rising star in Konoha. She still doesn't like him?
If I tell anyone, people will just laugh at me.
As for secretly working hard to surpass her opponent—she's not a student who hasn't graduated yet.
Just think about the difference, and you'll understand how naive this fantasy is.
Why?!
Why did you suddenly become so outstanding!
It would be fine if you were a good-for-nothing, but you've become so outstanding, what am I supposed to do!
Hearing the women's exclamations of admiration around her, her mind was in turmoil. As soon as the commendation ceremony ended, she ignored even her familiar teammates and left immediately.
My choice was right.
That's right—
After the promotion ceremony, Shenyue Xingyun could sense many changes.
The women's gazes became even more ardent, but this ardent gaze carried a hint of respectful distance. The men, no longer displaying the disdain and contempt they had shown years before, maintained a friendly demeanor even when harboring resentment.
The title "Nebula Jonin" sounds affectionate.
In addition, he began to be informed of the village's decisions. Plans and policies requiring a vote were now subject to public approval.
This is a change brought about by strength and status.
-
This change is not limited to strangers and high-ranking officials.
The same goes for the people around you.
When Izumo Shingetsu was practicing his swordsmanship, he would sometimes argue back when faced with Shingetsu's guidance and criticism, but he would never talk back or argue. Even if Shingetsu was being a bit harsh, Shingetsu would just nod and admit his mistake. Ah, right, right!
His girlfriend ran out of energy much faster when sparring with him. Often, she was already exhausted before he could even exert himself.
This is the increased psychological stimulation brought about by the change in identity.
Even in Might Guy, he could sense subtle changes.
"Nebula! Let's have a thrilling duel!"
"My fists and feet are itching to get started!"
At the Konoha training ground, watching Might Guy bounce up and down on the ground like a spring to warm up, Shingetsu Seiun stretched his muscles slightly and then assumed a fighting stance.
"it is good."
"Bring it on!"
iiiii check, ~
The two instantly engaged in a fierce battle.
Shingetsu Nebula didn't use her sword because that would be too unfair to Might Guy and pointless.
He was able to fight Matt Kay on equal terms using only his fists and feet.
Although his physical skills did not receive any system-wide upgrades or rewards during his time on the battlefield, his physical abilities improved as his overall strength increased and his combat experience grew.
Seeing Shingetsu Nebula holding his own against him with just fists and feet, Might Guy was overjoyed.
"I'm so touched, Nebula!"
"You've improved so quickly."
While defending himself, Shenyue Xingyun said, "This is the power of youth."
Matt Kai immediately burst into tears.
He threw punches while shedding tears, which amazed Shenyue Xingyun.
"The power of youth" is obviously fake; it's a crude set of youth quotes that he himself summarized, including a series of ridiculous short phrases such as "Those who don't work hard have no right to talk about youth" and "This is the power of youth; my youth is already thirsting for it."
This is all to speed up the process of becoming Matt Kay's best friend.
Since he became a Jonin and his taijutsu skills were comparable to Might Guy's, he could sense a change in Might Guy's attitude.
The enthusiasm grew even stronger, and the frequency of invitations to practice together increased.
Greater respect is the kind of respect shown to equal or stronger opponents.
Even happier. Unlike those who "fear their brothers suffering, and also fear their brothers driving Land Rovers," Matt Kai is genuinely happy for him.
It was as if he had gained another goal to chase on the road of youth, which made him very happy.
Shen Yue Xingyun felt that he was just one step away from becoming Might Guy's best friend, so recently he never refused whenever Might Guy invited him to train together—of course, it wasn't easy to refuse, as the other party was a bit too persistent.
After their sparring session, the two sat on the ground to rest.
Matt Kai asked, "Nebula, why haven't you been wearing that green bodysuit lately?"
"You can perform even better if you wear it."
Shenyue Xingyun, who was drinking water, paused for a moment, and then said, "Um—Kai, actually I want to wear it too."
"But my girlfriend won't allow it."
"You won't allow it?" Matt Kai asked, puzzled. "Do women even care about things like this?"
"Of course," said Shingetsu Nebula. "Kai, you don't know, women are a lot of trouble."
"They want to interfere with everything you do, from what clothes you wear, what shoes you pair them with, what accessories you wear, to even the way you walk, sit, or lie down."
"So Kai, it's not that I don't want to wear it, it's just that I have no choice."
Matt Kai was stunned, then said with some fear, "Women are terrifying."
"But Nebula, why do you still spend time with women?"
Shenyue Xingyun thought for a moment and said, "Kai, you don't understand."
"Women have their merits too."
You'll find out later.
After parting ways with Might Guy, Shingetsu Nebula went home, took a shower to wash away the sweat and dust, and then opened the control panel.
"System, draw a prize!"
With the latest draw chances exhausted, the perfect attendance draw machine started spinning.
I thought it would be another white reward, but the pointer landed on the blue area after passing through the white area.
【ding~】
[Reward: Disguise Skill (Lv3)]
[A highly sophisticated disguise technique so realistic it's indistinguishable from reality; unless detected by X-ray vision or external force, even one's bedmate wouldn't be able to detect it.]
Shenyue Xingyun frowned as she looked at the pop-up reward.
Why does this look like I've seen it somewhere before?
As I was thinking, a figure suddenly appeared around the corner ahead.
Upon seeing this, Shenyue Xingyun immediately began to feel a headache.
Mao Yue sunset.
The two had not seen each other for a long time since their last parting.
The girl's face became even more exquisite, and her figure grew more and more beautiful. At this moment, she stood at the corner of the road, looking at Shenyue Xingyun, her eyes filled with resentment.
Shenyue Nebula was the first to break the awkward silence.
"What a coincidence, seeing you here."
"Long time no see, how have you been?"
