On March 64, 3, Konoha, there is no doubt that this was a day that attracted countless passionate attention. The official competition of the Chunin Exam kicked off on this sunny day with an extremely grand and magnificent manner. The daimyo of the Wind and Fire Kingdoms came to the arena with their innate majesty and solemnity. They strode with their heads held high, their steps steady and powerful, and their followers followed closely, showing their respect. The nobles were dressed in gorgeous clothes, and their every move showed their noble and extraordinary temperament. Some held exquisite and elegant folding fans and swayed them gently, while others wore dazzling and radiant jewelry, like stars. There were also merchants from all over the world who gathered in Konoha from different directions with their own thoughts. For a moment, the entire Konoha Village was bustling with people, the scene was bustling beyond imagination, the streets and alleys were filled with a tense and exciting atmosphere, everyone was full of expectations, those pairs of fiery eyes flashed with desire, and they couldn't wait to witness the wonderful and thrilling ninja battles.

The list of players was officially announced at this critical moment, and each name seemed to carry invisible pressure and infinite possibilities: Kankuro vs. Aburame Shino, Temari vs. Shikamaru, Haruno Sakura vs. Toss, Uzumaki Naruto vs. Hyuga Neji, and Uchiha Sasuke vs. Gaara. Each matchup was like an unknown storm, full of speculation and imagination, and exciting.

In the first match between Kankuro and Aburame Shino, the calm and capable Shiranui Genma presided over it. But who would have thought that just as everyone was holding their breath and waiting for the battle to begin, an unexpected scene happened. Kankuro crossed his arms, his expression was as cold as ice, and a disdainful arc appeared at the corner of his mouth. He unexpectedly chose to give up. This made this highly anticipated match come to an abrupt end before it really started, causing the spectators to whisper and talk about it. Some people opened their mouths in surprise, some frowned in confusion, and some showed disappointment and shook their heads and sighed.

The following battle between Temari and Shikamaru also attracted a lot of attention. Shikamaru frowned, his eyes were focused and deep, he was ready for battle, not daring to slack off. Temari was agile, agile as the wind, like a dancing butterfly. The two of them went back and forth, launching a fierce confrontation. Shikamaru continued to display his wise tactics, trying to win by cleverness, and every step was carefully planned. But Temari's attack was like a storm, swift and fierce, making him overwhelmed and exhausted. Due to long-term consumption, Shikamaru's chakra was gradually exhausted. He wiped the sweat on his forehead, panting, and after some difficult thinking and weighing, he finally lowered his head helplessly and chose to admit defeat. Temari successfully won the battle.

In the battle between Haruno Sakura and Toss, Sakura knew how difficult this battle would be from the beginning. But she was brave and fearless and did not retreat or fear at all. Instead, her eyes were as firm as torches, her hands were clenched into fists, and her whole body exuded a resolute momentum, like a red plum blossom that stood proudly in the snow and frost. She tried her best to use the ninjutsu and skills she had mastered through hard training to the extreme without reservation. However, Toss was very strong. He sneered and pressed forward step by step. Every attack was carried with overwhelming power and sharp momentum. Although Sakura showed perseverance and indomitable spirit in the battle, she was still unable to change the outcome of defeat in the end. But she was defeated with honor and won the respect of everyone.

Next, Genma Shiranui announced loudly with a serious look: "The next duel will be between Uzumaki Naruto and Hyuga Neji!" As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere on the scene instantly became extremely tense, as if the air had frozen into ice.

Without hesitation, Neji opened his Byakugan, and a sharp, cold light instantly shone from his unique eyes. At the same time, he waved his hands, his body was as fast as lightning, and he used his soft fist skills to launch a fierce attack on Naruto like a storm. Naruto hurriedly retreated, his steps were a little flustered, and he had to quickly use his shadow clone to contain him. But Neji's attack was too swift, and Naruto was still at a disadvantage, surrounded by danger.

However, Naruto was not discouraged at all. He acted decisively, quickly formed seals with his hands, and used chakra in his body to create a chaotic scene. He took the opportunity to release the ninjutsu Wind Style Fierce Wind Palm, and a powerful palm wind whistled out, trying to reverse the unfavorable situation. But Neji reacted very quickly, and in an instant his body spun, bringing up a whirlwind, and used Kaiten to form an indestructible and powerful defense barrier. Not only did he successfully resist Naruto's attack, but he also took the opportunity to accurately seal the acupuncture points on Naruto's body with his soft fist, then folded his hands across his chest and said coldly: "Give up the game, you can no longer use chakra."

But Naruto was extremely determined, his eyes were burning with unyielding flames, the power in his body began to surge, and he actually burst out with the power of the Nine-Tails. His chakra shone brightly, breaking through Neji's blockade in one fell swoop, and rushed towards Neji again. At this moment, Naruto's chakra, speed and strength have been significantly improved, and Neji suddenly fell into a difficult predicament.

Ningci knew that the situation was not favorable to him, so he could only quickly seal his hands, sweat dripping down his forehead, and use the family secret technique to resist. In the interval between using Kaiten to counterattack Naruto, he took the opportunity to dance with his hands again, using the Five Elements Seal, which he had not mastered very well, and the chakra in his body surged wildly. Naruto's Nine-Tails Chakra was completely suppressed. After several fierce physical confrontations, the two's fists and feet collided, making a dull sound like thunder. Ningci seized the opportunity, his figure flashed, as fast as a ghost, and performed the Eight Diagrams Sixty-Four Palms, with palm shadows flying, and sealed Naruto's chakra again. In the end, Ningci was exhausted and collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, his face as pale as paper. Naruto also knelt on one knee because he was unable to fight again, his body trembling slightly, like a candle in the wind. In the end, the referee ruled that the game ended in a draw. This thrilling battle undoubtedly brought about a small climax of the Chunin Exam, deeply shocking everyone present. Cheers and exclamations rose and fell like surging waves.
