Chapter 442: First Round of the Exam


    In a tense atmosphere, the day of the 1st of July finally arrived.


    The curtains of the first round of the joint Chunin Exam were officially lifted.


    Aoba, who hade to watch the show, never thought that the examiner of the first round would actually be Itachi!


    However, after thinking about it carefully, he felt that there was nothing to be surprised about. After all, even someone like him could be the examiner of the second round. What he meant was that since a talented and capable person like him could be the examiner of the second round, then in all aspects, especially Itachi who was only a little less attractive than him, he naturally had a chance to be the examiner of the first round.


    There was no need to ask. The current Uchiha n was like the sun in the midday sky. Their status and reputation werepletely different from before.


    As the n leader of Uchiha n, Itachi naturally had the qualifications to issue this question.


    As for avoiding suspicion, there was no need for that.


    Because there was only one candidate in Uchiha n this time, and it was even a team with twomoners. What was there to be biased towards?


    It was the same for the other races. Basically, they only needed to give one or two people''s opinions. Otherwise, this time, Konoha''s exam candidates would not be as simple as just a hundred people. It was also very easy to casually gather two hundred.


    However, as the host, Konoha definitely could not cause such arge disparity in numbers. Otherwise, if his own exam candidates were grouped together, what would happen to the others? This year''s joint Chunin Exam also lost its original meaning.


    Therefore, there was no need to avoid suspicion at all. In any case, no matter how much they avoided it, the examiner who came out of the exam would definitely be Konoha''s people.


    Those who were willing to believe that the exam was fair would definitely believe it. From the beginning, those who felt that Konoha''s exam candidates had the advantage would feel unbnced in their hearts.


    He just didn''t know what kind of difficulty Itachi woulde up with to make things difficult for these examinees who hade all the way to Konoha.


    For this reason, Aoba secretly asked for a test paper, and then his expression became strange.


    ......


    At this time, the atmosphere in the various examination grounds was also equally strange.


    After distributing the test papers, all the examiners left, leaving only a crow standing at the front of the podium. At this time, he was scanning the crowd with his red eyes. Finally, he said,


    "This test is forbidden to cheat. Once found that the whole team has been deprived of the qualification for the test, the examination time is 30 minutes. Now begin to answer the questions."


    Crow can talk?


    Well, many Contracted Beasts can talk, there is nothing to make a fuss about.


    What really made all the examinees have a strange expression was that there was only a Crow Contracted Beast in therge examination room as a monitor. Wasn''t this too strange?


    Especially before the start of the examination, it had specifically emphasized that cheating was not allowed. If it was discovered, it would also implicate the other teammates.


    When they looked at the examination paper again, everyone was stunned!


    The first math question could not be understood at all, and thetter included the skynguage, geography, aesthetics, and even foreignnguages, etc.. It involved a wide area, and the difficulty was simply shocking!


    Could someone really answer this test question correctly, or within 30 minutes


    Everyone had a look of disbelief on their faces, as if they were doubting their lives.


    So what was this test about?


    Was it honesty?


    Or was it a test of their friendship ties?


    Some of the smarter ones seemed to have realized something. This test was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.


    Many people had solemn expressions on their faces, and even more people began to scratch their ears and cheeks, looking around.


    Even the examinees who were originally confident in Konoha had the same expression at this moment.


    In this first test, what was the real test point set by Itachi?


    In a certain test field, Orochimaru, who was mixed in with the female ount, suddenly sneered. If he had not suffered a great loss in this area before, it would be difficult for him to react immediately.


    The true face of this first test was actually not the test scroll in his hand at all.


    Orochimaru directly tore it up, and then secretly mobilized his chakra.


    Although the surrounding environment did not seem to have changed, it was actuallypletely different.


    This was because the test paper that Orochimaru had torn to shreds was still intact on the table in front of her. Moreover, there were no questions at all. There was only one sentence on it.


    "Congrattions on passing the first test. You have three minutes to help others cheat. However, if it is too obvious and you are discovered by the examiner, you will be disqualified along with your teammates. Of course, you can also choose to leave the examination room immediately to ensure that you can advance."


    Before this, no one would have thought that the first test was actually a Genjutsu!


    As for Crow, who had been standing on the podium the entire time before the examinees entered the arena, it was naturally Itachi''s handiwork.


    All the examinees who had met the Crow Examiner had been struck by Itachi''s Genjutsu from the very beginning.


    If they could not sense this, then no matter what choice the examinees made in the Genjutsu, the final result would be failure!


    Of course, using a Genjutsu on so many examinees at once was a great test for Itachi himself.


    However, because the power of the Genjutsu was very low, it only increased the range of the casting, so even if it was just Genin, it could still easily break the Genjutsu after it sensed something strange.


    The real strength of this Genjutsu was that it could make people fall for it without being prepared.


    A strong person like Orochimaru was also pulled into Itachi''s Genjutsu for a moment, but he immediately found something wrong, and then easily unlocked the Genjutsu.


    However, this feeling of deja vu made his left arm start to ache.


    The killing intent in his eyes shed, and Orochimaru immediately began to help Kimimaro and the others.


    In fact, Orochimaru was not the only one who had discovered that he had been hit by a Genjutsu. After all, there were so many examinees, and they definitely did notck geniuses. In addition, there were definitely people who were good at Genjutsu. Therefore, after experiencing the initial confusion, some people began to try to undo the Genjutsu they had been hit by.


    Then, he was greatly surprised to see the words left on the ''test paper''.


    Should he take the risk of being wiped out and help his teammates remove the Genjutsu, or should he just save himself first?


    This dilemma was the second level of examination that Itachi had set up.


    Of course, if cheating was too obvious, he would be eliminated.


    If he hid within three minutes and allowed hispanion to realize that he had been hit by a Genjutsu, it would be a big problem. If he was not confident, he would choose to ensure that he could pass through.


    However, Itachi would definitely not give a high evaluation of this kind of person.


    Because he was worried about his ''safety'', he did not try to rescue hispanion. What face did this kind of person have to give a high score?


    If not for to ensure the passing rate of a ''qualified'' and only act ording to his character, Itachi would definitely eliminate all the people who chose to leave alone without hesitation.
